  • Hey All! This is the second Susanne Sundfør song I have heard, and this was amazing, and beautiful. Also sad and dripping with a sense of hopelessness, but the beauty in this is undeniable.

    I've not heard of this artist before, but I loved this song...I had my eyes closed during the first listen, but had to see her for the live performance...absolutely beautiful..the last part sounded to me like a child's music box, a flash back to happier times

    A lament for the oldest profession and a damnation of the sex trade. That's what this song is about .Fortunately, there are artists who write about topics almost no one else does. SUSANNE IS A GENIUS!

    Other songs by/featuringher worth checking: White Foxes live at the 2012 Nobel Peace Prize Concert. Her collaboration with Röyksopp on Running to the sea, live or album version. Her collaboration with M83 for the Oblivion soundtrack theme. There's a good live version from an american tonight show, can't remember which one.

    That was such a sweet reaction. You seemed genuinely surprised that her voice is the same good live as for her studio version. It really is 😊. The brothel is both the name of this particular song and also for the album. This album from 2010 was her second. I bought them at the time. Susanne was nominated at several different awards in various categories and this album got her two awards (Spellemannprisen = which in English is refered to as the Norwegian Grammy Awards. And another award called Edvard-prisen). Susanne has won the "Spellemannprisen" in various categories five times (e.g. as the producer of the year, album of the year and popartist of the year with album "Ten Love Songs"). She could possibly have won some more in 2011 for her 2010 album, as she cancelled her candidate for the category called "the best female artist" for her album The Brothel, in protest that there was such a category distinguishing female and male artists. She had been awarded as the best female artist for her first album from 2007 (awarded in 2008) a few years earlier. And I suppose she would've repeted that with such a great album unless stepping back. I remember this very well. The following year of her protest in 2011, the categories "the best male artist" and "the best female artist" was removed from the Spellemannprisen award and has not been reintroduced. Other of her albums has got her awards, such as the Nordic Music Prize in 2018 for her album "Music for people in trouble" from 2017, which is another fabulous album worth listening to. 🎶😊

    Its crazy to think of all the talents and fantastic artists there are out there who doesnt get the recognition, respect and attention they deserve (just in Norway we have a lot of fantastic artists who never will be heard by most people in the world). At the same time artists who doesnt write their own songs or can sing very well are topping the charts and àre world wide famous. Its not easy being an artist from smaller countries. They have to work thousand of times harder than those from fex North America or the UK if they want to make it outside of their country, or they need the right connections. Susanne should have been a world star.

    she is a genius, the queen of dark melancholic songs. her voice can be very soft, but also in times sharp as a knife - and stays in your head for ever. what i really like on your reaction videos is that you work with the lyrics. great reaction.
    this live version is my absolute favorite of her. it's so beautiful. "turkish delight" from the same session is also a killer!
    and thanks that you got into it, i highly appreciate it! i love watching how people falll in love with her. that's kind of a mission of mine.

    Susanne is just an absolute treasure. I’ve seen her live twice. Both magnificent shows, but completely different in every possible way. The first one was after the release of her Ten Love Songs album, and it was just a huge party. Up tempo, pumping electronic music. A blast from start to finish. The second show was in a beautiful classical concert hall with music more like this song. Lots of piano and just intimate ethereal songs. I don’t think any of the songs from the first show were played at the second one. She’s just so versatile and a true artist.

    I love Susanne Sundfør, she makes amazing music and she is my favourite Norwegian singer/songwriter besides Aurora. Although Susanne writes beautiful music herself she is also covering other artists and she’s able to make another artist’s masterpiece sparkle even more. Listen to Judee Sill’s The Kiss sung by Susanne, it’s not better than the original song but it makes one song perfect in two different ways!

    A very good reaction and commentary. For Susanne Sundfør I would recommend "Fade away" that's a bit more poppy in the sound design, and " White foxes." The videos for them are however quite dark. Another norwegian artist I like is Annie and my favourite song of hers is "heartbeat."

    Love your reactions! And welcome to the world of norwegian artists. You soon will recive a norwegian membership in the mail😁 Susanne really is one of ours most talented singer/song-writers. I would recommend her song "When the Lord" from the documentary of a very talented norwegian photographer Lene Marie Fossen, who died far to young after struggeling with anorexia since childhood. The video "When the Lord" is disturbing and powerfull. But also very beautiful and warm. Sigrid is also an norwegian artist you should react to! Her live versions of her song "Dynamite" is really good. Personally I like the Radio 1`s Piano Session the best. (Pardon my rusty english) Greetings from Norway

    All her music is something that make you aware of your heart,,if you have one. Also music that force you to reflect, - not much music today that makes you do that. but she has many sides, Also Lets have some fun music! "Accelerate/Fade Away" ( live at Øya '15 ). That's a little push for your blood pressure. Maybe after "Undercover" (live at Stollar), and the "Silicone Veil", (live at Skavlan).

    My interpretation is that the theme is the sex worker, but on a broader or more universal note it is about a disposition in the soul of those who have lost God, and have reduced the soul for pleasure seeking, and that is why it hits all of us. There is no dignity or good in making the soul a ‘whore’ of the senses and the world.
