The most beautiful female vocalist I've ever heard. Not just her voice but the emotion she puts into her presentation can bring you to tears. I can't get enough of her. It's so soothing before resting for the night.
Two years ago (April 2016) my husband killed himself. The person I was before his violent death is gone forever. I listen to this song for hours at a time because it reminds me that our time on this planet is quite brief, and in a few years, there will come a time when I too "go home" and the experiences (and pain) of this earth will be over. The lyrics, together with the beautiful melody, is a glimpse of heavenly peace and beauty.
God Bless you, RoseMary. Prayers for you, as God and your Faith will carry you through as you continue to live your life that God intended.Much Love.....
My beloved sister is 97 and on her way "home" I am playing this for her. Please God🙏 send an angel choir to her spiritual ears, because we are very far away from each other and I wont see her on this side of the Veil again.
God bless you dear George….She had a great husband in you Thank you for loving her to the very end ! What a cruel disease dementia is My dear mummy died from dementia 12 yrs ago I miss her and my dearest daddy so much ! He died from prostrate cancer my brother died from alcoholism He was my only sibling but I believe in my Lord and Saviour I’ll be with them once more never to be parted again forever in their loving arms Thank you Jesus for making this possible I love you with all of my heart for dying on a cruel cross for all who believe in you ! You took all our sins and our transgressions upon yourself and you died a horrible death for all who believe in you Thank you so much for your sacrifice I’ve lost my entire family I grew up with but you my Heavenly Father found me the perfect husband and our young man who has special needs You loved me dear Jesus all my life and I couldn’t have more gratitude for loving me Thank you xxx
My Mother was a widow with six kids. She died at age 53 just when we were old enough to pay her back for all her sacrifices for us. I look forward to being with her again someday.
Rob you have my sympathy and prayers my Mother was 47 when she passed there were 5 of us left two under eleven my Father stepped into the breach I was 19 she is with me always
@@carolroberts4614 I am now 73 and have felt her presence and guidence with me I am not particularly religious my elder brother( I am the one in the middle) died a few years ago and I sometimes feel him near me too mainly laughing at me but that is nothing new it is probably imagination but sometimes the feeling is very strong and usually when i am under stress but it helps me cope and think that maybe there is something beyond death
Yes I feel the same with my mum , I am67, and I lost my younger sister 5 years ago when she was 59, and sometimes she feels very close, especially when things are bad and I think she is fluttering around anxiously!
Aww Karol my heart breaks for you He was loved so much by you A perfect wife I’m praying 🙏 for you….that God will be be near you over the next few days and time is a great healer I lost my brother to alcoholism not long ago It’s a process we need to go through but far from easy
My mum passed away two and half years ago and my mams sister, Sheila couldn't of picked song to send my mum off. Sadly missed by our heart broken 💔 Dad and ourselves. We miss you mam 😢 ❤️
Apparently I live in a cave, because today is the first time I ever heard this woman sing - and wow. What a pure, angelic, beautiful voice. (It does not seem fair that she is also lovely of countenance.)
You noticed. A very astute observation which shows sensitivity and appreciation for what is excellent in this world. She is surely touched by God. He apparently thought she would be a sweet representation of His love and His gifts. You must be rare as well for I have not met anyone yet of the male species to speak so highly of the female gender. I have to say my great grandson speaks your name often. He must watch Monsters, Inc. everyday and he loves Sully (James Sullivan). He even has the talking Sully, a stuffed animal who roars. I loved your comment. Would love to have been on the receiving end of such a compliment.
I lost brother on November 10th 2017 And know he has now gone home. I now stand as the only survivor in our family generation. At 75 I to will be going home. Thank you Jesus!
Very timely my brother in law had passed on the 13th Nov '22. Today at 10 am he'll start going home to his eternal home. The sound truly help his beloved in there farewell "GOODBYE".
This Song is very beautiful and amazing. I Love the Singer (Artist) Sissel. Her Performance was great and glorius. I had this Song heard Yesterday at First. When I hear it I must think about my parents when they died many Years ago. ☀️☀️☀️🍀🍀🍀😍😍😍🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴
This was the final song sung by a cousin for both of my parent's funerals. I held it together until I heard the words and knew the two most important people in my life were gone. It's so beautiful and will stay with me for ever..
I played this song for my wife a few times and then she was taken suddenly some weeks later. She was ready to meet her Lord and I'm glad that she got to listen to this song before she left this world. See you soon, luv.
willie, im so sorry for your loss, may god have mercy on her soul, to guide and protect her on her journey to heaven, to be with our lord and saviour. if you need, me, call ad i will come, though you cant see or touch me ill be near, and if you listen with your heart, you will hear all of my love, around, so soft and dear. and then when you must come this way alone, ill greet you with a smile, and say "welcome home". the very best to you in life always, Louie Vaccaro, las vegas.
My dear wife of 54 years died four years ago from pancreatic cancer ; after 18 months treatment, she decided to end her treatment as it had ceased to have a positive effect. So we sat together and arranged her funeral and this beautiful rendition we chose for the photo montage
54 years. I knew a couple like that. she broke her hip and fell (its rarely the other way). she never fully recovered. after she passed her husband (outwardly gruff) was a lost soul. although he was healthy quite suddenly he was not. she was in fact his "rock". he passed less than 3 months later. the family doctor stated that he passed due to a broken heart. he simply chose not to go on without her. Are you still with us, sir? Or perhaps a better question might be... do you want to be?
Natural and seemingly effortless, and possibly even 'beautiful' singing, maybe, but not nearly as much in tune with the music as Annie Haslem's version at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2MVRdrIbDgQ.html. I know which I'd like listening to better. And check out www.americanmusicpreservation.com/GoinHome.htm to see what the original was really about: "The Largo, with its haunting English horn solo, is the outpouring of Dvorak's own home-longing". Nothing to do with death.
When I was 14 years old, during a week of work experience, I was tasked with screening phone calls in between some other tasks at a managing company. The phone rang, and I picked it up, presented myself and the company I was at. The most angelic voice I’ve ever heard spake, through the tinny speakers of a 90’s land line, words I will never forget; “Hi, it’s Sissel Kyrkjebø here, is [name withheld] available?”. I immediately fell in love and have been reeling ever since. It’s a crime that she’s not more well known, her voice is the utmost perfection possible for humankind to create.
Sissel Kyrkjebø is an angel sent from heaven, she was put on this earth to sing that song, to comfort all those who listen to it ,especially those who have terminal illnesses, her beauty and her voice can only be that of an angel ,for only an angel could sing that so the way she does . when my time comes the last hing I want to hear is this song and only sung by Sissel
This woman is an incredible gift to humanity. Consider that English may not even be her primary language. My Dad is a huge fan (he is 82 years) and has shared her with me. How can one not contemplate the wonders of life and the universe and our meaning here while listening to Sissel open her heart and pour out eternal love? She has offered us what we can each do ourselves: be the vessel of the love of God.
she speaks absolutely PERFECT English with NO British dialect. I love Charlotte Church too but she DOES have a strong British dialect (she's British though). she has a beautiful voice...
To believe in God is easy as you can feel the Sun & see our earth. HOWEVER SISSEL, is one of the Angels that God has given us in order for us to remember 🙏 that GOD exists...!!! ❤...
We played this for you dad on the day we celebrated your life. We wanted to keep you with us but God wanted you more. We miss you every day Dad and mums is sad you have gone home. Mum knows your with your mam and dad now and not in any pain. Love you dearly dad, we miss you every single day xxx
This is a beautiful song. But when you lose a loved one it is more meaningful. I lost my best girl a few days ago. Yes so had four legs and left hair all over the house, mooched my breakfast most days, and more. But she was gentle and sweet and was always there for me. I look around at all the clues of her presence and its hard to hold back the tears. Goodbye Maggie, now put a smile on Gods face as you did everyone else. You are missed. But you are home now, no pain, vision restored. Play with others and sleep in the clouds.
I seem to have a need for music that makes me cry....and this is it today.....will be 3 years in October that my wfe of 44 years lost her battle with cancer.
My beloved Mom passed on recently but I find Peace and Solace in the knowledge that those who truly loved her will be with her again and will see her whole and healthy once again. God is Good!!!
This lady has to be one of God's angels with a voice like that 🙏🙏🙏🙏 she is absolutely... totally.... In a league of her own👌👌👌 Thank you my dear for the most beautiful version I've heard of this 🌹🌹🌹
This is one of the favorite songs of my Grandpa, he used to sing the Chinese version of this song to us. Beautiful lyric, yet nostalgic tune. Now he has passed away for more than one year. We miss him...
Some Artist you dance along too.Some Artist you sing along too.This Artist is an angel sent by god for us too watch,listen and enjoy with pure wonderment and Amazement at her truly god given talent.Thank-you Sissel God bless you our Angel....
I have now reached 72 years of age. Happily fit and healthy, but the years pass so quickly. Having sung in choirs in Norway, listened to Sisselso often over the years, with great pleasure. He rendition of this song brings peace and the feeling that when my time has finished, I will be at peace. Sissel had been my angel of music for many years , bless her.
+Vicki Wong my husband died 25 years ago .. so young...hang in there God looks after the widow and the orphan .. and he has for me in many wonderful ways
+Vicki Wong And the waiting is the hardest part. Time there is much different than time here. For him, only moments but for us much longer. God grant you peace and the knowing that love is never wasted nor is it ever lost.
Sheis so wonderful and makes me feel better about losing my husband of many years to lung cancer, so sad and I feel better just hearing her sing, such a beautiful lady too, and what a voice! Thank you Sissel!
Awww, so sorry about your loss Suzanne. I truly understand how it feels losing a loved one, my wife passed while having our daughter, wasn't easy for me though but I'm grateful to God for today 🙏. My deep and sincere condolences, how have you been? 🌺 😢
My grandads funeral song. 4/11/22 🇳🇴🌹Per Magnar Vikan🌹🇳🇴 R.I.P Grandad you are and always will be truly missed. You are now at rest with Nanna. Loved forever , always in our hearts 🤍🤍🤍
I first heard this in the movie Snakepit. I was 16 watching the early show in black and white. It was the uplifting end of one woman’s struggle with illness. Since it has been a lifelong favorite and at 69…I must be honest that I look forward to the day I too will go home. I will miss my daughter and her kids but I know where I am going is a beautiful end to care and loneliness. My grandfather is the one I hope to see first…the kindest man I ever knew. In the meantime, I try to make my daughters life easier when I can.
For my beloved Mum and Dad who I will miss forever. You've gone home now my dearest parents. I love you and always will. The missing is hard though xxx
What a voice - unfortunately only just come across this piece but it will be played often. Also, she must be the sexiest singer ever - the facial expressions during this piece are mesmerising .
I would have loved this for my mothers funeral but l knew l would cry my eyes out and so would my son and daughter. Why do we all think we need to keep control in front of others? This song and this beautiful singer with the voice of an angel is perfect but oh so moving .
What a Blessing this is, I lost mom 3 months ago due to dementia. Although she was 95 I know a lot of you had stated your lost your mums at such a young age. God Bless to all of you
So true. "In Dreams" was one of my favorites of Roy Orbison. Thought is was impossible to cover properly. But Sissel proved me wrong - amazing performer.
