I love Eivor. Try "Falling Free" live
She does everything from jazz to traditional folk music, fantastic artist.
“Not everything is meant to be translated into English”
I love that. Some things lose quite a bit of their potency when translated to English, or into another language in general. For example, I’m Finnish and there’s a term that Finn’s use to describe themselves and their mentality: sisu. It has no direct translation into English so some of the meaning is lost, but you still get a general idea. So I do love to listen to songs in the original language in which it was produced. Not saying I won’t listen to the English version as well, or any other translated version, I just think it’s important to feel the emotion of the song as it was intended. ❤️
wasn't there a finnish term for drinking alone vodka in underwear?
Eivor is a name from Old Norse and is pronounced Eye-var. Her second name (Palsdottir) follows the old Scandinavian tradition - composed of the fathers first name followed by either "son"/"sen" or "dottir" depending on their sex. Many north European languages have a similar sounding word for "daughter" - but with many different spellings - Dottir being the Old Norse version. So the name Palsdottir is literally "Pal's daughter". This naming system is known as patronymic naming and was common across much of Scandinavia and places settled by the Vikings.
Under this system there is no inherited surname or family name - the children do not share the same last name as their parent. And commonly the mother doesn't change her last name on marriage - but retains her original last name. This naming system has fallen out of use in mainland Scandinavia but is promoted (by law) in Iceland where inherited surnames are rare - and is still practiced (but not imposed by law) in the Faroe Isles where Eivor was born. Traditionally parents and children also had the option to take the mothers first name as the root for their last name - so called matronymic naming.
Ahhh Eivor! So beautiful and transcendent! She has a spellbinding voice that opens a portal to the ancient world. Other songs that are must listens are FALLING FREE live and SALT live from a train factory! Eivor is a Nordic Goddess!!
Wardruna and Aurora - "Helvegen", you won´t understand a word but you´ll sure as hel feel it. (yes i did mean hel, not hell).
I understand, but I know what you mean. It sure feels, transformative, and huge,
Agree, please do Helvegen on stage with Aurora, it’s amazing
Otra vez con Aurora, -.-
100 million percent!
Thank You for this reaction! This place is in Aurlandsfjord, Norway. Eivør is from Faroe Islands.
This is amazing, this kind of music is based on where we Germanic people come from.
Eivor is an artist from the Faroe Islands, and the language in which she sang on this is called "Faroese". Its is closely related to Icelandic, and more remotely related to other Scandinavian languages (Swedish, Norwegian, Danish).
Both Icelandic and Faroese people descend - mainly - from people of the west coast of Norway (norðrvegr or norvegr), thus their languages originates from that dominant set of dialects, which their Norwegian ancestors brought with them across the North Sea, and continued to use as long as they lived (on the Faroe Islands or Iceland), passing it from generation to the next, and developing it. In other words, the linguistic relationship of Faroese and Icelandic is directly connected to (rooted in) Norwegian language, as full inheritance at the time of settlement. In linguistic history and terms, modern Norwegian, modern Faroese and modern Icelandic languages are all developed branches of the old West Norse language (Faroese has mixed in some Celtic words, from the West Norse settlements on the nearby islands), while modern Danish and modern Swedish are developed branches of the East Norse language. Linguistic historians consider West and East as two distinct branches of Norse at the time of Landnåm (the age of finding new land, i.e. the Viking Age). There is an illustrative map of the geographical distribution of Norse language branches in this Wikipedia article (note the RED colour distribution, shown in the map under section "Middle Ages", Pic. 3 of 6): www.wikiwand.com/en/North_Germanic_languages
Bless for the comment about translating things.
In the fjord landscape of Western Norway. Sitting in a scenery like that makes it magic, and if you where all alone you might like to sing like this.. 😊
Funny that you say "beatboxer" because it was actually while Eivør was trying to learn beatboxing that she discovered that growl
Eivør from the same concert in western Norway feat. the band Vamp w/their song "Tir n'a Noir" (again inspired by Irish folk):
ruclips.net/video/97HQ1U-uGaU/видео.html
Apparently the crowd was there for a Vamp concert, explains the full band set up on stage, and they had Eivør with them to contribute on (at least) Tir n'a Noir + this solo guest performance, guess that's why the crowd looked as "unprepared" as many of us from her performance
In this song Vamp sings in 🇧🇻 while Eivør sings her parts in 🇫🇴
The concert was also sent in its entirety on NRK (Norwegian public broadcaster)
You’ll feel this
Your right. Music does not need translation and I get a lot of people saying I’m weird listening to songs in languages I don’t know.
You are definitely not weird. Music is an universal language!
You are truly appreciated!
@@HighlyCombustibleReacts thanks. You as well.
This is my most favorite version, like you and a lot of posters here....no translation is needed.
There is something magical in music where you might not understand the lyrics, but that song
Invokes beauty,joy, sadness and just pure awe all at the same time. That's magic.
I would like to recommend Wardruna's and Aurora's song called helvegen for reaction.
Another band called Heilung.....just pick any song to react to.
Thank You for sharing your thoughts, and be safe out there traveler.
Norway, im proud
Ok, Eivor convinced me not to burn down the village. At least not today. But hey, there is always a tomorrow :)
You are really good at feeling and percieving what this is all about. The title translates to spellbound and she describes her devotion to the mage that did this to her. The "beatbox" episodes are when she is performing "Galdr" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galdr which is a sourcery/enchantment mostly performed by women. Seeresses outof which the three most important are Urd, Skuld and Verdandi that weave the cloth of destiny for all men and women. Old Norse mythology. If she really does galdr or just imitates it, is up to what you believe. But you did feel something, didn't you? :-)
unreal
Great reaction! Eivor is very versatile. Try this epic performance, it’s in English and has a completely different feel to this song: Falling Free live at the Old Theater.
throat singing is rooted in greenland. that yodel-like part is called kulning, which is an ancient vocal skill used for exampel during sheep herding to call after the animals ofer long distances
If you're wondering what the song is about, it means "I'm spellbound by the wizard in every piece of my body and soul and can't move, but only stare to where the wizard was standing while a fire is burning in my heart." So this song really needs to be felt, because it tells about a feeling rather than a story.
Love this song and was going to recommend it but thought you wouldnt do it 😂
💜
This took place in one of the many fjords in Western Norway where she is well known.
if you were there you had a "Woodstock" experience........how many 1,000s told their kids "I was there!"....her beautiful, mystical voice echos through the valley and fjord, riding the air.....Eivor wrote this, though it sounds like a medieval chant.....the language is Faroese
Music is the universal language for all humans.
Great Reaction!! You should check out “Falling Free” live at the Old Theatre and “Salt” live at Juke train. Both are amazing performances. She is the voice you hear on show The Last Kingdom.
Great reaction. Eivor moved from her voice to throat singing that she learned from Inuit in Greenland and Canada. You mentioned tribal, for this you need to see Heilung. Sit back and marvel, this clip is their first live performance (ruclips.net/video/kmWTZ3KfnXE/видео.html)
The ø letter sounds like the sound you get in the beginning of "earliy".
Trøllabundin or spellbound, but I guess you knew that in your heart.
Soul of the Norse
Yes Wardruna, Heilung, Aurora, Faun, and Skaldi would all be recommended. All much from the same kind of music in relative regional closeness to each other, all will not disappoint.
I loved your response! THANK YOU! Would you consider reviewing Eivor - Into the mist? I so hope you will. Thank you again! :)
Wow, so sad I just saw your reaction to this. Cause Eivor ("I-vor) is amazing and tap into things a lot of us ancient Europeans can feel. Thanks so much for reacting to this one. If you find time please react to her song "Salt" sung in an old train station. ruclips.net/video/IW8jTpb5EpY/видео.html
The Last Kingdom.
Damn, I really wasn't paying attention. I already gave a thumbs up to this reaction. Completely forgot that you reacted to her already. Oh well, that's ok. I still wanted you to see Falling free. Glad you like her. And it's good that you got to see her singing in English for Falling free. Hope you will do more Eivor in the future (But please do more Aurora first)
Have you reacted to Agnes Obel yet? She's another great one from Norway. I would try "Riverside" and if you haven't done Kalandra (Another from Norway) try Brave new world or "Borders" music video
Agnes Obel are From Denmark, not Norway, and Eivør from the Faroe Islands. But this video was shot i western Norway
@@pawsarup3760 Thank you for the correction. I meant to say Scandinavia
It is in Norway
Watch her singing Salt live in the train warehouse
+1
She caught ya on the throat singing. :D It's part of her country's tradition, as well as other countries. Here is the performance location:
And an English translation of this song:
Pure viking
It was a song about how she got enchanted by a wizard and then the wizard fucked off and left her all abandoned. Not even joking, that's the song. :D
Also recomend Helene Bøksle
She are in norway plase cold sogn og fjordane
that's a norvegian fiord that's the sea not a lake.
For more varieties of traditional Scandinavian music, highly recommend this great "modern interpretation" of a Sami joik by Ella Marie Hætta:
ruclips.net/video/odpREEp-uOo/видео.html
Samis are indigenous people originating further North in Norway (and Scandinavia), and joik their fascinating traditional "chanting singing style" deeply rooted in nature
Here's her final great (and winning) performance in the same live TV show Stjernekamp in 2018 where established 🇧🇻artists compete in different genres: ruclips.net/video/zo3MIDp7owc/видео.html
And here's Vegard Bjørsmo from last year's Stjernekamp with his take on the joik "Ella" (originally made by Marie Boine): ruclips.net/video/LVBrbi7M87Q/видео.html
And this year's Stjernekamp winner; Bjørn Tomren with a great merge between traditional 🇧🇻 folk, throat singing and eastern instrument:

(+ his rap contribution in the same competition: ruclips.net/video/Nm_--PVAzRI/видео.html)
