This is one of the best songs I've ever heard in my whole life. It's like a sonic river of fluid gold, or diamonds, so haunting and full of emotion. And her voice is absolutely superb, it dances gorgeously over the top-notch composition and production. God, Susanne Sundfør is a blessing to the world.
Poses, poses, that's all you are to me Roses, roses, that's all you're offering me And oh I wish to God that the earth would turn cold And my heart would forget it's made of glass And all the pretty tulips would disappear And never disturb me again You gave me my very first gun I'll go out and hunt the hidden dome With white foxes, with white foxes Freeze Hunger, hunger, is the purest sin It is an empty church in a crowded bin I've wept and I've stumbled I fought and I craved for the gravy of your soul But all I want to do now is walk among The barren trees and fields of snow You gave me my very first gun I'll go out and hunt the hidden dome With white foxes, with white foxes
also thought it said: "(hunger) is an empty church that I've crowded in", meaning they have so much desire that they fill the entire space, "crowded bin" sounds more cynical though I think
@@billhicks8 what a song huh!! Yeah I just copy pasted it from a lyrics site, it seemed correct to me but I don't have the albums' lyrics so who knows. X
Reminds me of when I was in my early twenties and heard Tori Amos for the first time; not making a comparison between artists - have a pet peeve about that myself - just comparing the impact of hearing a brilliant artist for the first time back then, and finally experiencing that again with another brilliant artist twenty years later.
Wish I could say! Nothing off the tip of my tongue, but if I find someone I'll let you know! Do you know M83...? A bit more experimental, but still super chill!
Saw her live a few years ago. I've been to many concerts with a lot of world famous bands, but her concert gave me chills. She plays most of the instruments herself in studio, but her band is also magnificent.
and her voice is truly epic. She doesn't seem to have any limit of her voice range, , even live (i'm a singer), so her voice is legit. So fascinating to watch her live :)
+saleem suliman I get the disappointment but her new record "Ten Love Songs" is almost in all best records of the year ranks so i guess (and hope) she is in a better place for an alternative/electronic music artist.And Delirious was huge and universally liked. But still,i wish someday she will have the best selling single of the year(or whatever) because she fucking deserves it.

I remember hearing her voice for the first time. My wife and I sat through the ending credits of Oblivion as she sang. It left quite an impression on me.
I can't stop listening to that. so addictive, so gentle and at the same time full of suffering, this is one of the songs that make me realize I wouldn't survive without music
Susanne said in an interview that this song was not to be taken literally. The gun-part is from an Emily Dickinson-poem ("my life had stood - a loaded gun"), and to her it meant that something bad had been given to her, and now she wanted everything to go away - Back to silence. And what silence would be better than a cold earth, with barren trees and fields of snow, white foxes joining you, hunting the hidden dome (whatever that is), and your heart would forget it`s made of glass? :) Sounds good to me, at least as an escape from the synthetic "I`m so perfect, but on the inside I`m dying"-lives we lead.

"I wish to god that the earth would turn cold And my heart would forget it's made of glass And all the pretty tulips would disappear And never disturb me again" My god, I'm obsessed with this song. Learned about her after hearing her collab with Röyksopp, who are pretty much my two favorite people in the whole world. And all be damned if this girl is anything but phenomenal. Her voice is a marvel, just melts me away.
This woman has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. I can't even explain how her voice makes me feel. Who is this woman? And they say the crap we hear today is good? Yeah not next to her.
I'm here from Slovakia. I totally fell in love with her voice, music, style, everything! I'd like to go to Norway to see her live performance. Sadly, it's extremely far away from my home, but maybe the dream come true once.
so they (the doctors) took a Fox out of the mans head; the fox, I think, represents youth and joy and innocence. It has been removed, or killed, as it were, and the boy is stumbling through a very cold world wondering how it died, and who has the answers. Odd video, wonderful song.
Ah, I wondered this as well. Looks like, from the video, the back of the man's head is what is being operated on -the occipital lobe, the part of your brain that controls visual processing. With this removed, he would lose his peripheral vision or perhaps even more. I related this to her lyrics, "my eye is my sanctuary." I think that perhaps the child and the fox represent his childlike fear of stumbling into a world where he may no longer be independent and can no longer do things that perhaps he once loved (the motorcyclist) due to this loss of vision. The child clings to a fox, naïvely unaware that it had been hunted -maybe even regrettably by himself. "You gave me my very first gun." Human nature is cruel and his fragile perception of what it means to be normal, healthy, mature, strong, etc. is being shattered.
‘I’ve wept and I have stumbled, I’ve fought and I’ve craved for the gravy of your soul. But all I want to do now is walk among the barren trees in fields of snow’ What a fantastic line. The best thing to have happened to music in fifteen years

I stumbled here, and OH GOD I'm glad I did! I need to definitely check out more, the style of music is awesome... and her voice is so strong and BEAUTIFUL.
Your time is never wasted with Susanne.
Her music is my sanctuary and her voice is an instrument in itself.
She deserves a huge audience.

One of the best vocals I've ever heard.
het voice is dancing on the melody
A lot of beautiful electronic music was born in Norway and in the Scandinavian countries ... this voice is really fantastic

Couldn't agree more with you!
+WonderfulLife08 Well fucking said!
she is wonderful....she reminds me of a young Kate bush in her range, creativity and experimentalism
+WonderfulLife08 so true!!!
its not bad...but best song ever heard ?? you didnt heard so many songs before, did you ?
She and her voice saved me from the darkest time in my life. Ty Susan, much love ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
came from Bundy. This is such a beautiful and haunting song. Perfectly chosen for the show and I can relate to it as well.
Song gave me shivers. That's how I know it's good.
This was Susanne's first hit in Norway. it made a deep impact. her voice and piano skills are amazing
Could've been the snow?
Same. So glad I'm not alone with the feeling it gave me.
This song is way beyond perfection. Susanne's vocals are hypnotising. The sound & music production is flawless. This is pure magic.
agree ...love
Her voice is INSANE
This is seriously one of the best norwegian tracks to date. Susanne is marvelous!

Interesting. I thought it said "where white foxes freeze", which i thought was quite a provocative image. All of it is really powerful stuff though
also thought it said: "(hunger) is an empty church that I've crowded in", meaning they have so much desire that they fill the entire space, "crowded bin" sounds more cynical though I think

Just discovered this artist & Tori is my absolute favorite 💗
wow
wow ....such a nice explanation
Same, and I am loving all of Susanne's work. I've seen Tori like 6 times, now if Covid ever ends, I NEED to see Susanne live!
This is how I felt discovering Aurora, a fellow norwegian pop singer
She makes it appear so easy to do whatever the hell she wants to with that voice. Just amazing
I'm loving this era of mildly haunting female vocals that I'm discovering at the moment.

After hearing this on the “Falling For A Killer” documentary, it gets me emotional in a certain way.

That is the only reason I know about this song, the intro is haunting. Guy was an absolute monster.
Me too! It's powerful.
I read about Bundy when I was a kid. His story appeared in the Reader Digest.
Needed help, like many out there do still. It's under the facade of a good looking face. Can be deadly, to put it mildly.
This is the pinnacle of music. Thank you so much Susanne.
I definitely feel somewhere in a nordic country with this song.
Makes sense. She's norwegian... So go figure

But I love the song

Susanne's singing is a beautiful novel in and of itself. Even with my eyes closed, this piece took me on quite a journey.
One of the most beautifull songs i have ever heard. I Just love her voice.
This song is the most beautiful song i’ve ever heard in my whole life.
The most captivating voice I've heard in such a long time. I am utterly mesmerised by the dance of richness and vulnerability in her voice.
Absolute mastery of songwriting.
I love the sudden change of armony in the chorus, that surprisingly fits with the verse at the end. It sounds genuine.

This is my spirit tune. Always saves me from what ever depths i find myself in.... massive love from the Swedish forests.

You should listen to the her on the oblivion soundtrack………her voice is absolutely shattering. Just beautiful.
After six months you wrote this, I really hope you've already listened to "Running to the sea". Her voice and the music, still haunt me
@@pixie23 I'm going to listen to it. Thank you pixie
Why doesn't this song have more hits, this girl's voice is amazing.
It’s too deep, of course.
This song is still my favorite by Susanne to this day 🥰
That voice!!! So clear - so pretty, so tear-wrenching.
A hauntingly beautiful song and her vocal prowess is uniquely impressive.
What a fantastic voice! I hope this track catches on to more countries. She deserves more recognition besides Scandinavia.

Rodrigo Polo Souza Lima surely is a nice part but when she raises her voice it is as well,especially 1:30
+derkgts10 That is the part where I press reload, and start the wonder again. I love 4:19.

and all the pretty tulips would disappear,

Holy crap. Favorite female vocalist possibly of all time.
How did I not know this artist?! What a haunting song
A deep letter, which exposes something of every heart
I'm crying so hard. thank you for uploading this. it broke my heart, but fixed it again for the fox.

Her voice is so beautiful!! No one sounds like Susanne. We love her. I wish she'd come to Texas so I can see her.
I forgot how amazing this song was till I watched "falling for a killer" and this was the opening credits music.
i have no idea how but this gets better every time i listen to it...
You've wept and you've stumbled
You've fought and you've craved

Maybe that's why it gets better 🙂

I tell ya hwat. This girl deserves far more than a damn measly 800k views.
Hadn't really heard any of her songs until I went with a classmate to a concert almost exactly a year ago. I fell in love.
