I've lost track of how many times I"ve listened to this over the past decade - every time I ugly cry, every time it's more beautiful than the last. If Daniel's joik doesn't turn you inside out, you don't have a pulse.
He is a fantastic artist. I met him like 20 years ago. I was with my brother at Daniels place. Jon had a smal key board. And when he started. I got chocked. It was just amazing. Daniel was my brothers best friend. We miss him every day. Daniel keep watching over us down here.
Not me ugly crying when the camera turned to Adam (the host) in the middle of the performence 😭😭😭 the most sweet, genuine nd beautifull host we ever had the honour to have here in Sweden. He passet away a few years ago 🥺🥺🫶
As a woman with Samí ancestors and a mother to a Colombian born son I am very proud of Jon-Henrik! I have always loved the jojk and I am happy that so many young Samí artist spread it around in peoples minds. I wish I had that talent myself, came back from hiking in the mountain range yesterday and the views was so beautiful I wish I could give them a jojk.
He became really famous, and has been competing in the Swedish national final for Eurovision - several times. It is always the 'Sami jojk', a traditional singing genre, but several times featering other artists, to make it even more pop-music.
The Sami joik is not a song with lyrics; it is a song from the soul and heart. Even if you don’t understand the song, you understand the emotion. Daniel’s Joik still touches me today when I hear it. It goes deep within oneself, and you just find yourself. It’s hard to explain; it must be experienced.
Jon Henrik is amazing. 💙07:14 Is the host Adam Alsing. He was one of the most beloved TV and radio personalities and have been famous in Sweden since 1990. He died of covid in 2020. He's so missed.
I played Little Big Planet 2 a lot as a child and Adam Alsing did the narrator voice in it. I remember I was blown away, it was, and still is perfectly delivered. I knew who Adam Alsing was by then but that made sure I would remember him with fond feelings always.
I loooove Jon Henrik and his joik... he have had a very diffucult upbringing being bullied in school.. he has the most beautiful soul.. saw his concert and it was breathtaking and totally magic..he's on my playlist and I listen to him all the time... ❤❤❤
Since you liked this I can recommend the jojk he did during the tribute for Börje Salming, one of our greatest hockey players Jon Henrik Fjällgren - my home is my heart (Game for Börje)
It´s okay to cry listening to this song Dwayne, as a Swede I can say that many of the Swedish people cried 2014 listening to this. It´s still gets me today, you can really feel the love Jon has for his friend. 😁❤❤
You should definitely check out some of Jon Henrik’s other songs! He’s competed in Melodifestivalen, the Swedish competition for who gets to do Eurovision. He’s an extremely talented artist and singer❤️
Oooh you reacts on Jon Henrik he live in that village I lived in before i moved more north out to arctic area He is nice person and can jojk so beautiful Jojk is Sami he sing a song to a friend who passed away Ooh you start to cry ♥️ 🥰 I understand it’s so emotionel
He is friends with my big brother, I've met him a few times, he was nice enough to drive me home on time when I missed the buss, he seems like a good and kind guy, and also he had a sick car and a cute dog. We used to get some reindeer meat and his dog played with our dog, I also think my brother used to visit him up where he lives with the reindeer but he also visit us in town, We also used to hear him sing before he even joined Talang, my brother used to record him on his phone, My mom asked my brother to ask him to record a cd at some point for her because she really adored his singing, Little did she know he would be famous one day , but she supported him before he was ^^ I still get very emotional and teary eyed when I hear him sing, I dont know if you know but he is from Colombia adopted into whats called a Samí family (kind of like Indians for Americans) ish...its at least closest thing I could resemble to. They usually live up north and hurdles reindeer and have beautiful folk gowns and their own traditional culture and they have this special way of singing called "Jojk" and that is what he is doing when he is singing. We dont really have many artists in Sweden using the jojk lots of them are private unknown Samí people who I gather just sings at home. Sometimes at least up here in both Sweden you sometimes see stuff spelt in both Swedish and in samish on signs and other things ^^ Usually samí people I think can speak both damish and Swedish, at least Jon has spoken Swedish everything Ive heard him. Buth with a north accent. He overall is a cozy shy northener with a charming accent 😊 I forgott the most important part, the man "Daniel" that Jon sings about was friends with my brother, ut was my brother who found him dead. They both were in Norway trying to earn money for a while and stayed at same apartment. It was very tragic for my brother he never really recovered from it, it was his best friend. So its very beautiful of Jon who was also friends with him to sing this song in his memory, Daniel visited us some times but I dont really remember much of him, I think im not sure but maby he used to shave his head and wear a red hoodie. It was a very tragic day, I remember it well 💔 Bless his soul❤
@@Shadowthevampire Fint skrivet. Du minns rätt att han rakade håret och brukade ha en röd tröja. Det var riktigt tufft för Jocke. Men tror och hoppas han mår bättre nu. För en sån sak vill nog ingen uppleva. Men han är stark det vet jag. Så jag är säker på att han blir "hel" någon dag i alla fall.
Great reaction!♥️ Most of the time I'm a metalhead, but outside the metal genre, Jon Henrik Fjällgren is my favourite artist. I'm so happy that you've found one of Sweden's National Treasures (in my opinion we have a few of those 😉). He actually won this competition, Sweden's got Talent, 2014. He was also the first runner up in Melodifestivalen (Try out for representing Sweden in Eurovision) in 2015. I highly recommend it! The song is called "Jag är fri" (=I am free). This chant/jojk comes from within, from the heart. Through Jon Henrik I've found other amazing Sami artists like Sofia Jannok and Maxida Märak. Also check out Jon Henrik's official music videos for "The way you make me feel" and "Mountain Dance". He've struggled a lot against mental health issues and "Mountain Dance" shows a bit of that.
Look att talent sweden with Ibrahim. I always cry when I see it. Because we in sweden take all for granted and don't even know how good we have it. He sings in swedish just after one year! And he sings a song that hits the heart that all of the swedish people knows! Stad i ljus av tommy körberg.
I love to watch different countries Talent shows, thank you Dwayne for showing this precious treasure, I cried so much, I love it when Talent shows has actual meaning behind singing or something else, cos you can hear it from their voice! I've seen many performers who actually starts crying middle of the song or in the end, this man's voice touched me so much
One more thing about this clip from Swedish talent. The man standing on the side with a beard and glasses, his name is Adam Ahlsing, and he passed away from COVID-19
@@hurmur9528 Yes, he did, and people thought before Adam fell asleep that they exaggerated the illness. BUT then the whole truth was never told why people many people who received help still died of COVID-19. It came to me when one of my brothers passed away now on 8/17. He had contracted COVID-19 so he was sedated, he got rid of the disease BUT the body couldn't get going after the ventilator that had taken care of the body's functions. Then you already realized that it is the critical time, when you switch off the machine and the body has to start. For me anyway, this was new.
ruclips.net/video/y3YU4DdXf3U/видео.htmlsi=V6QDI60RC3vBNQyW Here is his tribute to Börje Salming, Swedens hockey star of all time. He died from ALS. High risk of more tears 😭 ❤
I have previously tried to recommend this clip about the great hockey player Börje, which should be seen before your clip. It would be nice to react to them one after the other starting with this one? ruclips.net/video/8Neiv8xwhDQ/видео.htmlsi=BV9jOrTFQ4o3FaF8
You should watch the Jon Henrik Fjällgren - My home is my heart (Game for Börje) on TV4's channel as well. Jon Henrik is amazing in performing his tunes of jojk! 🤍
Note that he says that he "joik his friend" not that he "joik _about_ his friend". It is a very a very important distinction if you want to understand joik on a deeper level. A joik is much more then a cool song technique with few t no words in it. It is a connection to and capture of something's/someone's exitencial esscence of being. It is _not_ to describe something, nor to give a feeling of something. It is an invocation of something in order to get in touch with that something on a metaphysical level. The Sami culture and language is divided into many, often regional, sub-cultures and languages. _IF(!)_ I am informed correctly (a big if) then the modern north Sami joik is more melodic and more like we hear here. However in (some) south Sami traditions the joik is often more chant like and hypnotical and historically also used in a more shamanic way. It can for example be that you joik a artic hare and by doing so it is belived that it creates a spiritual connection to that individual hare's essence. That connection is then thought to allow a magic worker (nåjd/noaidi/"shaman") to communicate with said being. In some cases even transfer part of his own spirit/mind to inhabit the body and mind of said being and/or influence the action of that being. So when you joik an artic hare you do not joik _about_ said hare, merge with it and _become_ that hare during the joik. The ancient animistic worldview this springs from is not only fundamental to the Sami culture but it is eccential for Finnic as well as old Norse pre christian worldviews. Stuff that still are very much are part of the very foundation of the cultures and as such still very much relevant in society today, but are perhaps not always at the forefront of people's minds (if they are even aware of the connection). So the fact tha Jon-Hendrik talks about the circumstances around how and where he got the joik, and that it is presented not as his own creation but as a gift from his dead friend is not a coincidence, it is very much a part of the foundation. His joik is not meant to only connect and touch on a emotional level, it is meant to connect and touch on a spiritual level. He is offering the audience a chance of taking part of a spiritual connection to, and be touched by, the essence of his dead friend and their relationship. And from the facal expression and words of the judges I would say that he did d*mn fine job of that.
Therse no lyrics in joik. Jojk (also luohti, vuollie, leu'dd and juoiggus), Sami for singing, is an ancient Sami song, among the oldest in Europe. The term jojka originally comes from the Sami word juoigat. A jojk must not contain any words or sentences. You dont joik to a person, an animal, a nature fenomena or even a rock or a three. You joik THE person, animal, nature phenomena, rock or three. The joik is kind of the sound of their spirit. The sound of joik/jojk is comparable to the traditional chanting of some Native American cultures. Joik/jojk shares some features with the shamanistic cultures of Siberia, which mimic the sounds of nature
Joik (pron. yoik) puts you in touch with something bigger than yourself. Jon-Henrik is a fantastic joiker, and there are several talented Sami artists. To name a few, Sweden has Sofia Jannok, and Norway has "the grand, old lady", Mari Boine, as well as Ella Marie Hætta Isaksen. I recommend "Mountain Dance" by Jon-Henrik, "Irene" by Sofia, "Eagle Brother" by Mari and "Ozan" (cover from Adjagas) by Ella Marie.

A joik gives you a feeling that makes you understand even if you don't understand
Indeed, you can hear his yearning, the beauty of joik is there are no words. ❤
only if they are not joiking about it

Seen this many times through the years but I still get CHILLS
His friend died from complications from diabetes. It’s a really beautiful song and always makes me cry. ❤
Sitting on the train, and the tears are falling ❤
He tried to represent Sweden for Eurovision four times (i think). My favourite Melodifestivalen song was he's "Jag är fri" from 2015.
You need to watch Jon Henrik Fjällgren - My home is my heart (Game for Börje).
I cry every time I hear this joik. Joik is so wonderful and powerful
He has done really well since then.
The jojk is not about his friend. It is his friend in song form if that makes sense.
This performance was awesome!!
