It’s not his voice that makes people, including me, like Winnerbäck. It’s the lyrics and the feelings his songs induce. But I also think that the imperfections of his voice are beautiful in a way. His voice doesn’t need to be perfect because the rest is so good.
I am like a lot of people not a great fan of his voice, but the lyrics and melancholia of this song truly get to me every darn time and I can feel myself tear up. Great reaction as always, and might i recommend Kent - Hjärta. Cheers!
He’s one of my favourite artist and this is probably my favourite song. I get chills and tears in my eyes every time I hear it. It’s very special for me. And for me, his voice is one of the things that makes him special. And of course his wonderful lyrics.
Ja, gör "Det gör ont" också! Lena Philipsson vann överlägset Melodifestivalen på sitt fjärde försök och blev 5:a i Eurovision Song Contest (om jag inte minns fel), med den engelska versionen "It Hurts". Den ursprungliga svenska versionen var som sagt en jättehit 2004.
Gillar du sångare med bra stämma tycker jag verkligen du ska lyssna på Weeping Willows. Sångaren Magnus Karlssons röst är bland det bästa vi har i Sverige. Debuten Broken Promise Land eller Touch Me är bra låtar att börja med. Tack för en grym kanal!
Winnerbäck is the type of artist who's really a writer more than a musical artist, because at the heart of everything he does is the text. I'm not sure it qualifies as a classic but my favorite example of this is his song "Du gamla fria nord" which has just beautiful, albeit very dark, lyrics. His voice isn't as monotone in that song either, it's got a lot more range of emotion (especially anger).
As many people have written already. It is not his voice that makes him so popular as an artist (even though I think he is a better singer nowdays). For me music is firstly about feeling something. And a voice that is just pretty and does not make me feel anything is extremely boring. In US it is important to be able to sing the high notes and so on, but I think it is different in Sweden. And secondly, music for me is about telling stories. Lars makes great lyrics that tells different interesting stories that describes things as it really is. Lars sings about peoples feelings, thoughts and experiences just the way it is. And also as you said, the songs has got nice vibes. I feel that I always want more. I would like to be on a Lars Winnerbäck concert for several days and just feel the harmony in my body.
Elegi is originally a Greek word (Elegeia) describing a mournful poem or song. In Swedish both "Elegi" and "Eleshi" are acceptable pronunciations. Bonus fact: New Order made an instrumental track called Elegia in 1985. It's gorgeous, especially the 17 minutes version.
Two classics, inspired by today’s concert in Skansen: Staffan Hellstrand’s ”Lilla fågel blå”, and Lisa Nilsson’s ”Himlen runt hörnet”. Two really great songs. They’re probably already on your list. A definite new classic is Laleh with ”Goliat” (Kids even sing this at ”skolvslutningen” in church). Two other artists that had big hits, but that are not so active today are Dan Hylander with ”Svart kaffe”, and Anne-Lie Rydé with the ballad ”Segla på ett moln”. I would also reccommend listening to the late Olle Ljungström and his heartbreaking ”Kaffe och en cigarett” (Miss Li made a fantastic cover of this for ”Så mycket bättre”)
No fan of Winnerbäck myself but watching your reaction videos is always great entertainment. So glad I found this channel and thankyou so much for doing this! I can't help but watching some of them over and over again... 😆 If you want to do a true early 80s classic, try "Två av oss" by the group X-models from 1981. Great song! Thanks again!
Lars Winnerbäck - the King of Swedish melacholia! His lyrics are fantastic! Love his music too. But it’s not something you play getting in the mood for a party.
He has the coziest voice ever. But as others have pointed out, it is the lyrics that are fantastic, they are like poetry, give me goosebumps, is there any Swedish artist who can make me cry, it is Winebäck. There is no one who can make you think like that about lost love.
I have come to realize that even the Swedish upbeat songs are melancholic to some extent. To get a non-melancholic song you would probably have to defer to Samir & Viktor’s ”Bada nakna (på Sergels torg)” an earbug from 2016, loved by all ages (below 14). Please give more suggestions that are not dansband. Maybe Gyllene Tider?
My favourites from the 80'es (apart from Eldkvarn, Wilmer X and Kai Martin and the Sticks) is Anders F. Rönnblom, "God Jul, God Jul" and "Europa brinner" f. ex. Or why not, the smooth guy John Holm, "Den öde stranden" 1972, but you may not approve of his voice :)
Båda låtar du lyssnat på med Lars Winnerbäck är lugna låtar, du borde lyssna på en med lite fart i. Jag rekommenderar hans låt Jag får liksom ingen ordning
Du borde absolut ta med någon mer låt från Lars Winnerbäck om tanken är att du ska förstå Sverige bättre genom musiken, men ta något tidigare från tex skivan Kom. "Hugger i sten" eller mer upptempo "Kom ihåg mig". Eller "med solen i ögonen".
It feels like you look a bit too much on the surface when listening to our swedish classics. A good voice and a good production is not what makes everyone sing the song when sitting drunk around a campfire late at night. You have to look more to the song itself, and especially the lyrics. I understand though that the lyric bit can be a bit difficult for one that are not 100% familiar with the language. It could often be confusing for us natives as well, but we can still feel the beauty in some lyrics, even though we might not understand it completely. :) Don't think No doubt, think Bob Dylan. :)
@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 If everyone liked him, he would be a lot more popular than he is now. :) I just wanted to give you some kind of reference where "we" are sometimes coming from. Both Winnerbäck and Kjell Höglund, and probably some more you have reacted to comes from the same vein as Dylan, where the focus is on the lyrics and not the music. And then of course we have some where they manage to combine it, like Kent for example.
@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 Both Dylan and Springsteen had enormous influence on Swedish rock music in the 60-70. That’s why so much sounds similar. It’s a singer-songwriter tradition as well, with focus on lyrics and melodies. Most often guitar based.
@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 So please stay far away from Ulf Lundell! He thinks he is Swedens Bob. Yes, he sings equally bad and is a self-absorbed diva as well
I really enjoye your reactions keep up the good work and please react to a Ulf lundell song. Happy to hear that you are working together with magnus better great stuff.
Best songs with Winnerbäck is Söndermarken and flyger över ett land. You should react to Gessle - här kommer alla känslorna, perssons pack - 1000 dagar härifrån, gyllene tider - chrissie hur mår du.
Självklart ska du lyssna på "Det gör ont" med PH. Det är en självklar klassiker Jag själv tillhör inte fansen till Winnerbäck, tvärtom. Han är tråkig och saknar passion i sin röst
Men "imorgon är en annan dag" var vad Scarlett O'Hara sa på slutet av den amerikanska klassikern "Borta med vinden" (Gone with the Wind). Hon säger att imorgon är en annan dag då jag kan vinna honom tillbaka - alltså Rhett Butler.
Have you done any reactions to Eurodance/eurodisco songs? It was very big here during the 90s. I haven't seen any at least. Some suggestions from that era. Rednex - Cotton Eye Joe Ace of Base - The Sign or perhaps their "All that she wants". E-type - Set the world of fire or "This is the way" Army of Lovers - Crucified or their "Obsession" Robyn - Do you really want me. She had a big international hit 2011 "Dancing of my own" but you might have heard that one. Meja - All 'Bout the money
Look, those people who say "elegi" with a hard /g/, like in English "get", have never _ever_ heard the word before and have no idea what it even means. Honestly, they could at least listen to the song and thus hear Lars Winnerbäck himself use the (back) sje sound and model" their own pronunciation after that. Actually, saying "elegi" with a hard /g/ in Swedish is just as wrong as doing it in English for "elegy", where it has a /d͡ʒ/ as in "Roger". So, if your accent uses only the back sje sound or both back and front ones, go with the back one for this word. This goes for most of Sweden, including the standard accent. If you're from most of Värmland, way up north, or Finland, and thus only have the front sje sound, use that one. The back sje sound is the one that is said in the same place as the /k/ in "kan", just with some friction added. The front sje sound is pretty much the sh in English shoe".
I'm with you that the voice isn't great so have never really been a fan of him. Sure the song itself is kinda nice with the guitar and melody, but if i feel that i only really perk up and enjoy the song when the singer isn't singing, that's usually a not a good thing in my book.

ruclips.net/video/iojS70pRq3o/видео.html en riktig klassiker :)
"Håll om mig" med nanne Grönvall och "när vindarna viskar mitt namn" med Roger pontare är bättre val än "det gör ont". Sistnämnda är nog en av de största mello-klassikerna
Lars ain’t got no pipes on him. His thing is “ugly singing” and I’ll never understand it. He’s like a deity to many swedes, but I can only assume it’s mostly about his lyrics... Mörda mig inte svenskar... 😜
@@stefanpersson3865 Jag har inte hört så många av hans sånger, eftersom jag är musikalisk och hans röst är som naglar på plåttak för mig. Men jag är säker på att texterna är väldigt vackra 🙂
@@janniketarander4212 missade ordet inte men på vissa låtar låter han bättre tror hans idoler är Bob Dylan och Ulf Lundell de har inte heller bra sångröster men bra låt skrivare.
You don’t listen to Winnerbäck because of his voice, but because of his melancholic lyrics an beautiful melodies!
It’s not his voice that makes people, including me, like Winnerbäck. It’s the lyrics and the feelings his songs induce. But I also think that the imperfections of his voice are beautiful in a way. His voice doesn’t need to be perfect because the rest is so good.
For a great duo including Winnerbäck and Lisa Ekdahl (YES they sing together): "Kom Änglar"
'Det gör ont' was the winner of Melodifestivalen that year, so it automatically qualifies as a classic. 😄
This song speaks to the Swedish melancholy :P And I would say most of his songs speaks to me poetically, more so than focus on his voice.
I am like a lot of people not a great fan of his voice, but the lyrics and melancholia of this song truly get to me every darn time and I can feel myself tear up. Great reaction as always, and might i recommend Kent - Hjärta. Cheers!

Lars said in the show "Tack för musiken" att detta är den bästa sång han skrivit rent melodiskt och jag håller med till 💯.
