    I think the "oriental" you referred to is what is called an "kulokk" or cattle call that the female herders used in Norway to call on their cattle. It was done this way so that the call would echo between the mountains to the cattle.

    Theres a full version of the song available as well. They had to shorten it for the competition.
    The text is an old tale about a beautiful girl whose stepmom turns her into a wolf and sends her into the woods. The only way to break the spell is for the girl to drink the blood of her brother.
    In the end she kills her stepmother who turned out to be pregnant, so she actually drinks her brothers blood at the same time and the spell is broken 😅🇳🇴

    One of the best things about having Gåte taking part in eurovision is that so many new people get to experience them. THey are such a great band, if you want to react to more of them might I recommend their breakthrough single for way back in the 90s. The song is called "Sjå attende" or perhapsone of my faves? The song "Svarteboka" featuring Djerv on guest vocals

    Kulokk or cattle call is still used by herders in Norway. If you're lucky and in the mountains in late summer you can hear the lokk in its right environment, calling the cattle home for the autumn, and yes, it sounds as nature is calling.

    It's not just a very good song. I like separate instruments, that traditional instruments and current ones are used together and, above all, that they sing in their own language and feel proud of their origins and are not forced to sing in English, as happens to many bands. That's why I love Nordic groups so much.

    The pronunciation is «Gaw-teh»!!! The «å» is pronounced «aw» (or «au», as in «aussie») and the «e» as «eh» (as the «e» in «Sedona»), not «ee». Until around a hundred years ago, the «å» was written «aa» rather than using the «å» letter, which is why many of our names have «aa» in them and «aa» written in nynorsk or bokmål (the two most common written languages) are pronounced «aw»/«å». 🤗🇳🇴
    The chorus of the song it’s been said is inspired by old times «kulokk»/«kulokking» - short tunes the maidens who were taking care of the animals on pasture in the mountains during the summer (and making cheese etc. from the milk) used to get the animals back in for milking in the evenings.

    å in Gåte sounds like oh in English. The special Norwegian letters are not the least mysterious. The Norwegian alphabet actually has a letter for every sound in the language. ø sounds like ea in learn and æ sounds like a in hack. Remarkable, isn't it? English would be blessed by adopting the Norwegian alphabet.

They have to make a new text, its sooo sad 😢. She sings- I was a fare and thin maisen. With a stepmother evil,my mother died
    She turned me into a sword and a needle
    And send me off to the king's court
    And my stepmother's anger felt the most
    When everyone food liked me the best
    She gave me a wolf gray fur
    She swore I would walk alone in the forest
    And I will never be whole and well
    Before I drink my brother's blood

    Many people are not aware of what she actually sings, which in my opinion is a cruel text from the old days and i dont like it and i am from Norway. The text copied from newspaper:
    She summarizes "Ulveham", based on an old medieval ballad, as the story of an evil stepmother who casts a curse on her stepdaughter - who turns into a wolf running in the forest forever. She only loses her wolf's hide if she drinks her own brother's blood.
    "There will be a kind of happy - but cruel - ending when she meets the stepmother on horseback in the forest, throws herself at her, rips out her heart and drinks the blood. Because the stepmother is pregnant with her brother - thereby the curse is lifted.
