It's about an old, lonely lady who prepares her birthday party but none of her kids (or anyone else for that matter) show up. They call her on the phone and give lame excuses that they are caught up, thought it was another day etc, she says it's ok, but she's hurting inside. It's all very sad. I believe many people are in her situation.
@@seriksson9721 Very to-the-point description. This song is one of the few that completely wrecks me... every... time. ...and I don't even have kids. There's only one other song that gets me as much... and it's "I en sal på lasarettet"
Many have already wrote the basic meaning of the song which is really sad and beautiful, but I also think the line "nej, det gör ingenting, om det är nåt bara ring, för jag finns ju här var dag" is brilliant, and by mine interpretation basically means "it's okay that you forgot my birthday, if you need anything, just give me a call, I'm still gonna be here for you, every single day" and shows that she will still always be there for her kids even when she's being let down and hurt and not getting anything back which pictures the unconditional love most parents have for their kids.
Exactly, and “du kunde inte komma ifrån” is basically the interpretation that they are busy, stick at work or something. As someone else wrote, a lame excuse when dear mom has her birthday.
It was the womans birthday. She bought cake and sherry, made coffee - she"s waiting for her three children to come. One after another calls to say that they can't come = kan inte komma ifrån, and that they mistook the day. She answers that she understand but when the third Child calls (the daughter) there is nothing more to understand for the old woman. It's really so sad...she was waiting and nobody came. At least they all called, and that's positive.... Christer Sjögren can really sing! Another dansband singer that is good is Sten Nilsson from Sten och Stanley. 💖
The first time I heard this song, I thought that the line "En trött gammal kvinna somnar in" (A tired old woman falls asleep) meant that she died, because we normally don't include the word "in" when we are talking about a person just falling asleep. But then it comes out that she is alive to take the daughters call. Still, it's a very sad song.
As others have said instead of Körberg you should listen to Jussi Björling sing O Hela Natt, one of the world's greatest tenors. Nothing but respect to Körberg, he is amazing too, but that song belongs to Jussi and nobody else.
No Jonathan please do jussi björlings version of O Helga Natt !! He's one of the greatest opera singers of all time and that's the greatest version of O Helga Natt to ever be recorded! You have to react to Jussi you just can't pass him up!
Yes, absolutely one of the sadest songs i ever heard. Builds up a lot of feelings. I got friends who shuts radio off when it's playing on air du to strong emotions. The song contains an important message to take care of those who have taken care of you and brought you up. I am sure you would react differently if you could follow the story. Talk with your wife about it 🙂 It's definitely a banger, but a very sad and soft one. Good choice! Keep up with your reactions, they are great 👍
Du måste ta Jussi Björlings version av helga natt! När de frågade Pavarotti vem som är den bästa operasångaren genom tiderna sa han: Jussi Björling. “When I'm learning a new opera roll, I first listen to how Jussi Björling sang it. His voice was unique. I wish more than anything that people compare me with Jussi.”
Kan inte lyssna på denna utan att gråta 😢 Så sorglig! Vill bara krama om henne! Tänker på min mormor som dog i covid i april 2020 och vi fick inte besöka henne eller ta farväl så denna sång är ännu sorgligare nu. 😢😢😢
Oh dear, I need to collect myself for this ... This song is so incredibly sad that I usually avoid it, but of course I want to see your reaction. So, let's go!
Tommy Körberg of course sings O helga natt very well, but you just can't pass Jussi Björling by on this one. His recording of the song is one of the Swedish classic recordings of all time.
See Jonathan, now it’s not only me, now we are 29 listeners telling you that it’s actually you too, because you like excellent vocals. Körberg is a very good singer but compared to Björling… ohhhh… Björling is in heaven while Körberg is still on the ground, unable to lift like Björling.
He’s done like 3-5 with Per Gessle, 3-5 with Håkan Hellström, 3-5 with Ulf Lundell, at least 1 with Körberg already, so I think he can do O Helga natt and Till havs with Jussi Björling. :-)
The song is about an old lady who`s hosting her own birthdaypart. She buys some cake, liquor and preps for her chilenen to come visiting. And as the song goes by, her kids calling and tell that they cant make it. And as the song ends the cake is still on the table, and the candles burnt out, and she falls asleep. A really sad song about taking your loved ones for granted.
ROFL ;D No, it's her big day (birthday or similar) and she had prepared so much for it. But all of her kids comes with excuses for not showing up, all told her they mixed up the day. "Kan inte komma ifrån" = can't abandon current commitment. But the line "hon somnade in", makes one think of she passing, and as a juxtaposition to the repeated line "jag finns alltid kvar här". I think it's a clever, intended double for a sentimental "you don't know what you got till it's gone" kinda theme
Vikingarna is one of the bands/artists in Sweden that have sold most records of them all... Over 11 millions records sold... Christer have also sold around 2 million albums as a soloartist. And yes - He and Stefan Löfvén are relatives - not close but still they are. One of the saddest and most classic swedish lyrics around...
I like how you compare his voice to butter, because it's so smooth. You are right on top of it, because we call it being a "smörsångare" - a butter singer. The singer Christer Sjögren is one of the best at this.
I agree with everyone else, do Jussi's version of "O Helga Natt" instead. Or if you don't, do his "Ack Värmeland du sköna", or maybe "Sverige", "Nämner du Sverige", or "Land du välsignade". The most spine-tingling tenor voice ever, by a mile!
Tommy Körberg's version of O helga natt is very good but there's one that's even better. Way better actually. And that's Jussi Björlings version. Jussi has an amazing voice that you definitely should listen to.
I've never been fond of this genre but it's a part of your childhood. I guess most Swedes are familiar with "Guldbruna ögon" whether they like it or not. Dansband was the shit in the 70's. In almost every workplace there was somebody who played in a dansband. The groups looked dorky with names like Larz-Kristerz but they had fun and that's all that matters. Sven-Ingvars is like a bridge between those who like that music and those who don't. Everybody likes him.
Larz-Kristerz är ju ett nutida band med ett ironiskt valt namn för att flörta med 70-talsdansbandstilen. Det kanske fanns fler på 70-talet men dansband hör inte till 70-talet. Det har alltid varit, och är fortfarande, stort med dansband på landsbygden.
@@Huxteble Jag menar inte att det inte skulle vara populärt längre men på 70-talet var det hett. Min pappa hade en kollega som var med i ett dansband. Minns fortfarande deras vita platåtofflor eller något sådant. Jo jag anade att Larz-Kristerz var ironiskt. Lyssnade på dem. Faktiskt riktigt bra.
The older woman are having high expectations for her birthday and have prepared for her children to come visit. But all of them have forgotten about her birthday, and cancels the same day.
Sången handlar om att mamman fyller år och förväntar sig att barnen ska komma och fira henne, men istället ringer dom och säger att dom inte kan komma och skyller på att dom glömt eller tagit fel på dag men att dom egentligen inte vill komma.. Mamman sitter ensam utan att något av barnen kommer gratulerar henne. Meningen med texten är att man ska tänka på sina gamla föräldrar.
Do Jussi Björlings version of "O helga natt" and then do "Julen är här" by Tommy Körberg and Sissel Kyrkjebø if you want to hear Tommy Körberg sing a Christmas song.
Det här är en av de sorgligaste sånger jag vet. Gråter nästan varje gång jag hör den. Kvinnan fyller år och väntar på sina barn men ingen kommer för de har ”glömt bort” vilken dag det var ( kvinnans födelsedag). Refrängen är kvinnans ord som vi hör eftersom vi inte hör vad hennes barn säger och hur hon inte säger hur ledsen hon blir.
Probably should pass on Tommy K for the next one in favor of Jussi, as many have suggested. (Or do both.) Tommy's version is good of course, smooth and easy listening, a bit of power. Not like Jussi's though. Jussi Björling had a connection to the USA by the way. Apparently he sang at the Metropolitan Opera for fifteen seasons from 1938, when he made his debut to rave reviews. Also he toured the US almost twenty years earlier with his father and brother at the age of eight. I really enjoy your videos- thanks!
Her kids were too busy to visit her at her birthday and she waited all day. And when her daughter called she had already felt to sleep för the last time. 😥
I'd thought this song was very easy to understand because of the non complicated language lol. She's waiting for her kids to celebrate her birthday but they call and say they can't come. The chorus is what she's saying to them.
These songs should be next: Cornelis Vreeswijk - Balladen om herr Fredrik Åkare och den söta fröken Cecilia Lind Cornelis Vreeswijk- Turistens klagan Ted Gärdestad - För Kärlekens Skull Ted Gärdestad - Låt kärleken slå rot
The story is quite simple. The lady is excited and happy because it's her birthday. All the children is suppose to come for a gathering but one by one calls ans say they can't come. She gets sadder and sadder until she falls asleep after waiting the whole day and no one came. I always cries like crazy to this song
The mother has birthday and expects her children to come. each of them call and say that they have forgotten the day....she goes asleep without having celebrated at all....I always cry when I hear this......
Tips! Mats Rådberg med "Den vita duvan", en klassiker som det var väldigt, väldigt länge sedan jag hörde men som spelades dagligen på radio när den var som mest populär. Mats Rådberg och Rankarna som bandet heter har en mängd klassiker.
Hallo! I really like your reactions. Another dansbandslåt that were REALLY popular and that I think you should listen to is, De sista ljuva åren... Med Lasse Stefanz och Kristina Lindberg. Its also emotional.
Apparently Christer Sjögren, Stefan Löfven and Buzz Aldrin are related in some way. Christer Sjögren must be the best dansband singer ever. He even can do Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra.
Fan alltså, den här låten säger verkligen något om svensk kultur... Även om jag inte själv kan relatera, kan jag verkligen känna igen berättelsen tyvärr. Får lite ont i magen.
Went and saw Vikingarna live on their final tour a few weeks ago. Great show, but they didn't play this one. Also, you should check out some of the 60's bands. Tages, Hep Stars, Shanes, Spotnicks and Mascots, just to name a few!
This is seriously one of the saddest songs I know in Swedish together with "En spännande dag för Josefine" by Schytts (also a dance band) and "Lasarettvisan" by Maritza Horn😢 Maybe because I care so much for children and - like in this case - older people.
Det finns så otroligt många äldre som sitter ensamma i Sverige. Jag känner flera som jobbar inom äldreomsorgen som vittnar om att dessa människor sitter i åratal utan ETT ENDA besök. Det är fruktansvärt. Ingen ska behöva sluta sina dagar på det sättet.
Hi Jonathan. I like your reaction videos. You should listen to Linnea Henrikssons version of this song...its amazing and shows the true feeling. I also think she passet away wich makes it even more sad
I hate dansband. But I have full respect for Christer Sjögren. Amazing voice! Fun fact. Vikingarna is huge in Germany were they even sings in German. 👍
I think this is a song most suedes over the age off 30 have some type off emotions about. It’s a song that stays whit you. Please see/listen to Linea Henrikssons version from “så mycket bättre”
I understand that it can bee a bit tricky to understand since the grammar is not that clear in the text. But you should listen to the text as if you where sittning in the same room listening to what she replies, she is repeating the words she gets from her children. "jaha säger du det, du tog fel på vilken dag det var..... ..., nej det gör ingen ting...." but inside of her she is verry sad that they did forgot. This is the day she has been waiting for for so long, because she do not see her children alot.. Birthdays and Christmas is perhaps the only days they meet.
Its her birthday, she waits for her children to come, they cancel, they dont make time for their elderly mother. 😢 She says"I am here every day... but one Day she wont be...
Hon sitter och väntar på att barnen skall komma och gratulera henne på födelsedagen, barnen ställer in. Ensamhet helt enkelt. Jag tror du övertolkar det är tragiskt nog ändå.
Kjell Höglund! It's easy to only relate him to En stor stark, Jag hör hur dom ligger eller the fantastic Man vänjer sig. BUT you do Desertör or Häxprocessen ! I dare you!
When the childrens life and careers get more important than a birthday of the ones that set them to this world, raised them , provided them to become what they are today. What is a parents birthday to remember when they have "more important" things to do. It is the downside of the modern world,especially in the west.
"En trött gammal kvinna somnar in...", I've always taken this to imply that the old woman is taking an overdose of sleeping pills in order to never wake up again; a kind of bittersweet revenge against her selfish and uncaring kids, but perhaps that's just my morbid imagination...
This is awful but funny & not to forget very much function music for pair dance so its artistic quality maybe not is the best (the dansbands lovers are probably gonna kill me now) 😁
I'd say it's one choice of many good songs they've made. Probably many suggestions for this song and it's hard to choose when you don't know anything about Vikingarna and their songs.
It's about an old, lonely lady who prepares her birthday party but none of her kids (or anyone else for that matter) show up. They call her on the phone and give lame excuses that they are caught up, thought it was another day etc, she says it's ok, but she's hurting inside. It's all very sad.

For the song ‘O helga natt’ Jussi Björling is THE singer to react to.
He actually was quite famous in the US during the 30’s and 40’s.
Jussi Björling's "O Helga natt" is the one to listen to. Spine-tingling.
It was the womans birthday. She bought cake and sherry, made coffee - she"s waiting for her three children to come.

Håkan Hagegårds version är också väldigt fin

Jussi Björling is up there in the opera heaven along side Caruso, Pavarotti, Callas, Nilsson and a few more.

If you don't choose Jussi Björling's version of O helga natt you will truly, truly miss one of the best vocal performances EVER!!
To pick Körberg over Björling for O helga natt is like picking Eilert Pilarm over Elvis Presley for Jailhouse Rock.

Hi Jonathan. I like your reaction videos. You should listen to Linnea Henrikssons version of this song...its amazing and shows the true feeling. I also think she passet away wich makes it even more sad
Yes Jonathan she is sad. They had promised to visit her on her birthday but they cancelled all of them. 😢
Kolla upp Christer Sjögren, det är han som sjunger, och har gjort rätt så mycket, både Elvis, Psalmer och naturligtvis Dansband.
I hate dansband. But I have full respect for Christer Sjögren. Amazing voice! Fun fact. Vikingarna is huge in Germany were they even sings in German. 👍
You should listen to Christen in the show called Sa ska det lata" where he sings Bad Romance by Lady Gaga. It's epic.
The song is about a Old-woman belvive its her birthday
Janne Lucas - Växeln hallå
Alf Robertson - Hon steg på finlandsbåten
The original was Benny Borg.
Linne Henriksson gör en helt fantastisk version av den här ruclips.net/video/RdnfcPpVaEY/видео.html
My heart breaks!

Bra val, Tommy Körbergs version är fantastisk.
Play both Tommy Körberg and Jussi Björling's versions of Heliga natt and you can compare.
It's Christmas soon, so it's a wish?
Jag undrar om du har hört The knife eller Jose Gonzalez.
Om inte måste du reagera till Heartbeats med José Gonzalez och Silent Shout av the Knife.
It is a old ladys birthday and her Children forgot it.
Kjell Höglund! It's easy to only relate him to En stor stark, Jag hör hur dom ligger eller the fantastic Man vänjer sig. BUT you do Desertör or Häxprocessen ! I dare you!
m night shyamalan plot twist, she´s been dead the entire time
It’s sad because the song is about that the kids don’t have time to go see their mom..
When the childrens life and careers get more important than a birthday of the ones that set them to this world, raised them , provided them to become what they are today. What is a parents birthday to remember when they have "more important" things to do.
It is the downside of the modern world,especially in the west.

OMG... Vikingarna 🤪😜😅
Yes soooo sad
Min första Mors dag utan Mor...
Why do you do this Swedish thing? You probobly live in Sweden?
Trodde först att det va du som var utklädd till lussebulle hos pressbyrån men nu tror jag det är någon annan, eller ? :P
Too sad for me, can't do this kind of music.
Gud vilken snyftlåt 😅
"En trött gammal kvinna somnar in...", I've always taken this to imply that the old woman is taking an overdose of sleeping pills in order to never wake up again; a kind of bittersweet revenge against her selfish and uncaring kids, but perhaps that's just my morbid imagination...
Kanske en av dom sorgligaste låtar jag vet. Särskilt när man vet att hos vissa ringer det inte ens.
Lyrics so sad.
Aldrig hört och lika bra det fy fan vilken skit. Mer hiphop Come on
This is awful but funny & not to forget very much function music for pair dance so its artistic quality maybe not is the best (the dansbands lovers are probably gonna kill me now) 😁
You mentrrieen ta Vikikins dondt fuck we thes
What a weird vikingarna choice
I agree, there are so many better songs by Vikingarna.. why this one ? :(
I'd say it's one choice of many good songs they've made. Probably many suggestions for this song and it's hard to choose when you don't know anything about Vikingarna and their songs.
