Gåte’s music is a dark, mesmerizing and stunningly beautiful take on Nordic folk. Where they flirt with elements from traditional Norse and pagan music as well as from more modern genres like rock and industrial.
Can you convey to her and the team that it was the greatest performance on EV? 25th place is absurd, constantly it must be upper, upper and upper. I hope they don't upset and don't worry about results - they got weird number of positive reviews and fans over the whole world! Respects from Russia (unfortunately we can't vote on EV now, but our hearts with this song)
The instrument is NØKKELHARPE - KEY HARP. An old folk instrument used in Norway and Sweden the past hundreds of years. Gåte were superiour. The right winners.
This is a spiritual experience. The story is the traditional one about the stepmother who casts a curse on her stepdaughter, in this case a wolf mane. It is an old ballad that exists in different variations in the Scandinavian countries, and this is a small excerpt. In my understanding, the song is the girl's despair and liberation struggle. I love it! Great reaction.
I am bewitched (but far from bothered and bewildered): This epic rawness is just 100% unique! Best entry from Norway in years... Thanks for sharing your reaction. PS. The instrument is called "nykkelharpe" ("nykkel"/nøkkel means "key", thus a "key-harp". The instrument is believed to have travelled to Scandinavia from the Middle East a long time ago.
Gåte is famous for, and loved for, how they dig out the treasures of the very old, often forgotten Norwegian and norse song heritage. (the original lyrics of this song, - now rewritten,- was over 1000 years old) This vein is their trademark and how they have always performed their music and acts, since they started in 1999. A fabulous band. Groundbreaking trailblazers.
Gåte is just amazing, fantastic power and energy. The voice from Mother Earth! ❤️ Beautiful Gunhild - this is what Eurovision (the world) needs right now! 12 points 🥇
The key harp has no known origin, and the earliest records of its use are simultaneously Swedish and Norwegian. You can call it the Swedish national instrument, just like Norway can say the moose is its national animal even though moose exist in many countries, but you can't call it Swedish. The only thing we know is it was first used in Norway and/or Sweden.
🇧🇻 ❤ GÅTE 🇧🇻❤️ Thank you so much for your lovely words and review gorgeous 😍 I hope we win! 🇧🇻 Do you still think we have a chance? Wish you a great wednesday! Kisses from 🇧🇻🇧🇻❤️❤️😘
so gonna write this as i watch. first, that instrument is a nøkkelharpe. it translate to key harp. yes, the lyric was changed. it was a quote from a pome, a call chant, and mgp songs r supose to be originals, so had to chang, but the good thing is since it was a chant, it could be changed without changeing the feel of the song
I found this info : Gåte is a Norwegian folk rock band established in Trondheim in 1999. The band combines traditional Norwegian folk music and explosive rock. Their contribution "Ulveham" is based on an old coal lid, and the text lines are based on a 1,000-year-old medieval ballad. The song is a story of young maiden that undergoes a series of injustices, but by upholding justice and goodness, even in the toughest trials, she triumphs over evil forces and breaks the curse placed upon her.
Takk for info @annehyden1088 ❤️🇧🇻❤️🇧🇻 We are going for the win! Amazing song. Lyrics. Band. VOICE. The scenes ++++ ❤️🇧🇻😍😍 In love! See you in Malmø 🇸🇪🇧🇻❤️
The reason she's putting "her all" into it is that the story behind this is a long sad one. I'll make it short; she got a jealous stepmom who cursed her to live in the skin of a wolf, meaning living alone in the woods but still human in her mind. The only way she could become a human again was to kill her brother, wich she refused, and accepted her fate. But one day she saw her stepmother on her way to church going through the woods, and full of sorrow, misery and rage she killed her stepmother. And she became human, so she was relieved but it came with a realisation that she unwillingly had killed her unborn brother (her stepmother was pregnant) and therefore it made her human. So sorrow, anger, relief and grief. Lots of emotions in this old story.
I dunno. I’m a fan of the studio version, but this performance I felt is lacking the nuances. Maybe it’s just the sound. No arguing the raw talent and feel is there, it’s free as a bird.
i tried to translate 3 lines from the lyrics. lyric is from around 1100s "then I took her coat blue (ps blue is the symbol of being sick) and I moved her of the walker(gangaren) grey (gangaren means like an old road from the 1800-1900) then I teared out her "vistri" side ( its dialects?, but i think its connected to fairytales like witch, trolls and askeladd, so vistri might represent that, as for a direct translation of vistri idk, probably her hard side) Saw her blood them ran so wide (really old norwegian grammar here) then I teared her out her heart core So I got to drink my brothers blood"
@@Yoshi-nq2xk"vistri sie" means left side :) Apparently the stepmother was pregnant, so the girl got to drink her brother's blood that way. Lovely stuff 😂 The story is quite well known in Scandinavia, I think you can find it as "Møya I ulveham" (the maiden in wolfskin).

That’s a perfect summary. Thank you. And very interesting. I think I like it even more.
I ❤ GÅTE 🇧🇻❤️
That is my son's guidance councellor singing her heart out! She is a sweet, kind, and caring person. I'm so glad they won!
Oh wow!!
Hope she and her band will leave with the Glass Microphone :)
WHat?! I'm so jealous! I want to go to Norway right now!!! She's amazing!

Thank you for the extra context. It’s such an interesting back story.
actually saw them live a few moths ago. Best concert I've ever been to. This energy from the band through the whole show! They are amazing!
Been in 2003 to Roskilde best concert ever seen its Magic!

it is a swedish instrument. The song has strong roots in norwegian folkmusic. I love it. Gåte pronounces gawthe......and means riddle.

Yes the lyric is from the viking age, reallyyyyyy dark lyric.
The instrument is a nyckelharpa. Would translate into key harp in english.
Amazing song

Not a problem 😊 At this stage it’s my winner 🥇 so we’ll see
Yes I think this may well be the winner. I think Norway and Ukraine will both be in the top 5.

Thank you ❤️
The instrument is a "Nyckelharpa".
The letter Å in GÅTE is pronounced like the first letter A in 'always'
She is calling the cows to come back to the farm. That is what the song is about.

Wtf is a coal lid?
Lmao "coal lid" 😂 Google translate had one job... Kulokk is cow-call, a type of chant/verbal tune they used to call the cows home from the fields.

The instrument is a langeleik, a traditional norwegian instrument.
Nei, ikke langeleik, men en nyckelharpa/ nøkkelharpe.. in english a Key harp ❤

Gåte means riddle
i'm norwegian and I have no idea what she's saying in 90% of the song
i tried to translate 3 lines from the lyrics. lyric is from around 1100s
"then I took her coat blue (ps blue is the symbol of being sick)
and I moved her of the walker(gangaren) grey (gangaren means like an old road from the 1800-1900)
then I teared out her "vistri" side ( its dialects?, but i think its connected to fairytales like witch, trolls and askeladd, so vistri might represent that, as for a direct translation of vistri idk, probably her hard side)
Saw her blood them ran so wide (really old norwegian grammar here)
then I teared her out her heart core
So I got to drink my brothers blood"

It's a 1000 year old story, performed in old norvegian language
