This is my reaction to Alexander Rybak - Fairytale (Eurovision 2009 Live Performance)
In this video I react to a live performance at Eurovision 2009 from Norwegian singer and musician Alexander Rybak and his song Fairytale
#norway #music #reaction
Original Video - • Alexander Rybak - Fair...
Alexander was born in Belarus. He came to Norway with his parents when he was six years old. He is therefore trained under a different tradition than is common in Norway. His parents required him to practice the violin two hours a day. For him it was normal. Today, he is grateful that his parents put him under pressure when he was a child. He is a fantastic musician and showman, and when he won Eurovision in 2009 he won by more points than anyone had done before.
He came to Norway when he was 4 😊
@@In_my_own_mind Thank you!
Check out Angelina Jordan. She won Norway’s got talent at 8. She is 18 now and going to explode on the general music scene. You have over 200 of her songs to listen to - some original. DO check the barefoot Princess out❤❤❤❤❤❤
But the song is Norwegian culture
@@Lotad_from_the_north I would say it is a mixture of Norwegian and Belarusian/Russian culture. It has the ompa - ompa feeling you often find in folk music from that part of the world, and it is part of why I love the song.
The dancers are from Frikar Dance Company, which uses traditional dance from Norway and other countries in a modern form of expression. Here they take the Norwegian Halling single dance as a starting point, which was traditionally danced by men. The more acrobatic, the more you impressed the women. Kicking the hat off the pole is a traditional part of the dance. The man who founded Frikar is called Hallgrim Hansegård - I think he was among the performers here. In the link you can see him dancing traditional Halling. This is during Landskappleiken in 2013, an annual convention and competition, and is considered the Norwegian championship in Norwegian folk music and dance. ua-cam.com/video/jxhNWYTUiQQ/v-deo.html
Fun fact: This is the song with the largest margin of winning in Eurovision history
Holy shit im a boy and this fucking guy will be my crush if im girl.. his voice is just too fucking good..
The violin is one of the hardest instruments out there. Playing the violin at the pace Rybak can is nearly impossible! Now keep in mind, his parents made him practice the violin for around 2 hours per day from a VERY early age, so that might be part of the reason why
As a Norwegian, I grew up watching Eurovision and yes, I'd say it's highly popular and watched by many families. We are very proud of our 3 Eurovision winners, and our pre-selection Melodi Grand Prix is also quite popular still.
Uhh I love this music I mean it can't be explained that how much people love this song
Alexander originally was heading for a great classical carreer with his violin. He even had Norway's biggest violinist - Arve Tellefsen - as teacher and mentor. Aleksander, however, got attracted to the world of pop, and this is how Norway got to know him. Very charismatic and very musical guy with a taste for parties and the pretty ladies, lol!
(Btw.,I knew you would like this, Irish and Norwegian folkmusic has much in common. .
Men han er jo fra Skotland og ikke Irland.
scandinavian and slavic have a lot in common with this style of music, maybe thats because he is half belarusian so it sounds familiar, or maybe its just a nostalgia
I felt sorry for the girl from Iceland whos song in any other year would have romped home to win but she was up against this. Previously the maximum number of top marks had been ethe uK's Katrina and the Waves back in 1997 by Alexander blew that out of the water with 16. His total 387 (i think) score was the highest ever. I love his song Europes Skies. Other good ones are Leave me alone and the theme from How to Train Your Dragon 2 'Into The Fantasy'.
Thank you 🙏
You should hear his other songs "Into a Fantasy, Leave me alone" or when he performs La ronde de lutin. (Its the first video when you search for Alexander rybak La ronde de lutin. Its F amazing to see it live!!)
You should react to "Wardruna - Helvegen (with Aurora)" or just "Wardruna" in general.
My favorite Norwegian band Is Bel Canto. I also like Ane Brun, Berine Zetelits, Kaisers Orchestra, Gåte Mari Boine. And of course A-ha. Another good Eurovision entery is Margaret Berger with "I feed you my love. I also like her songs "Smantha" and "Lifetime guarantee" and her Maskorama (the masked singer) enterys as Nøkken.
Just som fun facts about the Eurovision Song Contest. It is the biggest songcontest in the world with up to 200 million wievers. Also the longest running going back til 1956. This year the finals was held in Russia wich to this date is the most expensive in history of ESC. It is said that up to 30% of the worls LED screen was the stage. The winner country are expected to arrange the next years competition.
Try to listen to his "I'm still here"
You should check out Aurora! She does not sing, she LIVES her songs and open up so you can hear her heart and soul!
Murder Song from the Nobel peace Prize consert or Through the eyes of a child from Nidarosdomen concert are two of many magical performances.
Second this👍
Norwegian folkdans
I suggest you should do a reaction to Wardruna feat. Aurora - Helvegen. It's a sort of pagan/vikiing metal tune., almost a chant. Great song. "Helvegen" is a song about death, dying and remembering those who have passed. It is about crossing over and letting go, as well as about searching for lost songs and old traditions.
It s a fiddle, not a violin, you can hear it
If you want to dive into norwegian music you just have to listen to Aurora! Try the live performance " Murder song" from the
2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert. It is a powerfull song and performance. Would also recommend the consert from Nidarosdomen (the biggest cathedral in Norway. Each and every one of the songs from there is worth listening to. A group kalled Kalandra is also very talented musicians from Norway! Inspired by nordic mythologi and music. Try "Borders" (Official Music Video) or the live performance from Jakobskirken "Brave New World ". Wardruna is a Norwegian group who makes music really close to the old Viking-culture. Their performances are epic! I strongly recommend "Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live)". A song from the time of the sagas. Our common culture with the Scottish people in many ways. I bet you like it! Please do not let Aleksander Rybak represent norwegian music. He is a good violin player, but that`s it. Nobody has heard from him sinse the Eorovisjon contest. I can mention at least 50 norwegian artist that is better then him. If you do not want to react to this music, you can just enjoy it yourself 😊 Greetings from Norway
Emma Steinbakken floden and Jeg glemmer deg aldri.and Angelina Jordan her New EP, Diamond and her Whitney Houston tribute i have notting, and Elvis Presley suspicious mindre tribute amazing Mert Nor from a blessed Norwegian❤
Listen to the violin and some black metal. There are similarities :)
It s actually a fiddle, not a violin.
Je m'en souviens comme si c'était hier........
