Sissel sings O Holy Night in three different venues...one in the frigid cold. To see more of Sissel's videos/photos go to: sisselmusic.com/ / sisselkyrkjebo / sissel.kyrkjebo
Wow, Sissel is a pure SINGER in every sense of the word and not an American twerking performer. Got my subscription if you keep bringing talent like this.
Ich kann nicht viel Deutsch, also hoffe ich, dass ich das richtig sage... ihre Stimme ist in der Tat ein großer Segen, den sie zum Glück mit uns allen teilt.
Don't be amazed, I cheat and use a translator program. I just think it's polite to try and communicate in someone's native language. I just hope it translates my comments correctly. Guess I'll never know.
I think her humility shows again and again. Look soon for my newest video: Sissel - the GOAT. There is some great footage in it and I think I make a great case for her being the Greatest Singer of All Time.
Beautiful. I also wondered how she could keep her voice out in the cold. And no, I can't think of any artist here in America that would dare do that. We are all blessed by her presence. Wishing you a healthy and Merry Christmas. Thank you
I think because Sissel stayed in Norway and Sweden, instead of moving to American and becoming part of our "Entertainment Industry," it kept her grounded. Merry Christmas to you too!
Yes She is remarkable. What is surprising about your blend is how consistent is her singing of this noble song. The accompaniment my vary but Sissel's delivery is a respectful tribute. And it is a difficult song to sing as voice coaches will attest with its wide register and long-breathed lines. It also needs good diction for the story to come across. Her 2009 TV concert performance is thought by many as her supreme cover of it (RU-vid).
The video in 2019, with the small band, was just slightly faster than the other two, but I was surprised when I put the other two over top of each other and she sounded like twins singing together perfectly in sync. I agree that the 2009 performance is supreme, however, the video was shot in the older 4:3 format rather than widescreen 16:9. The other three were shot in widescreen... so for editing purposes that's why I used them.
I absolutely LOVE Sissel and I LOVE your reaction videos...definitely better quality than other reaction videos. I love the blended performances you create since it lets me see her at different times during her career.
I've been told that singing at this level is hard work, physically hard (marathon-level, panting-at-the-end HARD), but Sissel is one of those artists that appear to breeze through it like sitting in a sofa, calmly sipping tea. There is one other young singer that comes across just like this: She just breezes through what must be very difficult passages, often just sitting on a sofa in her home, with a smile on her face, unassumingly waving "Bye" when the music is done - her name is Angelina Jordan and she is from Norway as well! It must be something in the water . . .
This is my all time favourite Christmas Carol and this woman does it tremendous justice, but I also think it’s worth mentioning Nils Bech’s version which he released about 7 years ago now and it was used to great effect in the Norwegian TV series SKAM released at about the same time. It was very moving and suited the context of the storyline in the particular scene that it was sung in.
Du er velkommen det er min glede (Norwegian)...vous êtes les bienvenus c’est mon plaisir (French)... or as they say in English, you're welcome, it's my pleasure. (Hope I got all that right.)
Glad you liked it! It's not easy editing several videos into one (as they aren't always the same speed or the same arrangement)... thus the few places where the transitions are a little "rough."
What an outstanding singer she is.I would love her to hear her sing with Amira.Willihagen of South Africa,who is 18 years old and sings like Sissel!!They both sound like Angels!
I like Amira too, but I think Sissel is better (probably because her voice is more "mature" than Amira's at this time). Amira is a gifted and kind young lady and I look forward to watching her grow.
Thank you for your compliment. It took a lot of hours to edit it. I'm in the process of creating a video called: Sissel - the GOAT. That stands for "Greatest of All Time" in case you didn't know. I think it will be my best video to date... but it will probably take more than a month to get it prepared (lots of research needed).
I have uploaded my Sissel the GOAT video. If you haven't seen it, please take a look and let me know what you think. It took me about 400 hours to complete. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CXRdLGgvzJU.html
Dear SISSEL why we don't have a CD to Christmas Time published whit your beautiful voice? That's the question, we don't deserve this absence. God bless you, from Lisbon with love 🇵🇹
Her first Christmas album was released in 1987 and sold half a million copies, later she released a Christmas album in 2009. It sold to 11 times platina in Norway... In fact she is on 11 different Christmas albums on her own or with other artists like Placido Domingo and Charles Aznavour in Vienna, and the Chieftains in Rome. She also sings in 11 different movies, Titanic and Lord of The Rings most known. She has released 25 albums and 36 singles/EPs and has been guest artist on 28 others plus numerous (hundreds) shows and concerts in her 40 year long carriere.
I believe Sissel only makes her music available digitally now. Here's a link to her latest Christmas Album put out November 18th. sissel.ffm.to/wmalbum?fbclid=IwAR1BlCbiuVvzTmVxyQ1xyzgJ7dzw8bhAB_F1orIGhrbRg0Ba_D5V4GnaNEs
@@dashcam-blogger Thank you so much for your gently message. I believe also the same, I think, +- after the 5 CDs "Reflection". Others musicians is making the same but CDs before is in the international market. It's the case, unfortunately.(I've just 2+Reflection). Your aide for Christmas cd was very great full. Allow me to take the opportunity to wish you Merry Christmas from Lisbon 🇵🇹
@@norse-nilsbjasa Thank you so much for your message. I follow Mrs Sissel Kyrkjebø since the 1994 Winter Olympic games, I hope that you have understand my idea. I take this opportunity to wish you Merry Christmas from Lisbon 🇵🇹
Thank you for a magnificent job of blending these three superb performances together - both artistically and technically. ALL that can be said about the greatness of Sissel's person, voice and talent, I agree with and endorse 100%. In MY mind - in respect to these - she occupies a universe ALL of her own. However, you did omit what I (and others) feel IS (and will continue to be) the "Gold Standard" for this song - in ALL respects !! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dNXNWTfTMsg.html 🥰😍🤩😀😇
Since it's coming up to Christmas, please consider reacting to Sissel's 2006 performance of Reger's, Maria Wiegenlied (The Virgin's Slumber Song). No reactor has covered this remarkable performance by Sissel in her best operatic voice. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7ZE3HkikZk4.html
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I won't be able to get to it until after Christmas... but I will put it on my list and hopefully do a video early next year.
