A REAL fairy?! Vocal Coach Reacts to EIVØR ‘Tròdlabùndin’ (Voice Analysis)

In this video, I react for the first time to the enchanting EIVØR performing ‘Tròdlabùndin’ Live. In this video, I analyse her amazing performance, explain and demonstrate her vocal techniques and I'll tell you what I think made it so great. This was truly enchanting! She mixed all kinds of vocal techniques including beatbox and everything in between!

One of the best vocals I've heard were sung by Maria Franz in the song In Maidjan by the band Heilung (live perfomance at Lifa). You'll go ape shit over it. Much love.

[@esmae1979]

I think you would really enjoy the magic of the voice of Ekaterina Shelehova. Savage daughter bring me to tears each time I hear it... touches soul.

"You're never to princessy to beatbox." ~Lolli, 2023

[@weepingscorpion8739]

That is my countrywoman, Eivør Pálsdóttir. We're from the Faroe Islands. Her singing is actually a mixture of a lot of folk not just Faroese but like from everywhere. I think there's even some Native American elements in her singing but don't quote me on that. If you want to hear something more like Faroese traditional folk, try listening to Týr. They are a folk metal band and they often sing traditional Faroese ballads. Some of them include: Ormurin Langi, Regin Smiður, Fípan Fagra, Torsteins kvæði, Tróndur í Gøtu and several more. They have also dabbled with Norwegian and Danish ballads and here I recommend Sinklars vísa and Ramund Hin Unge. I hope to see you enjoy more Faroese stuff. :)

[@ikon8352]

Regin Smiðu, one of my favorites! greetings from germany!

[@YozhikvTumane]

I think the influences you talk about, like the Native American, goes much further back in time, to the music that inspired both Faroese/Nordic and Native American folk music. It's digging deep down in to the roots of being human.

[@BrankoJovanovic]

I have to say that your analyses are on another level compared to other voice teachers/singers. I'm not sure but I'd say that you've been given the absolute pitch ability. In order to properly explain what is happening behind what we hear, one first should be able to hear and distinguish all the details and embellishments. On top of this, I think that you are a brilliant educator. These two rare gifts combined make you a very rare individual. You are honoring both gifts so beautifully with these videos you share with us. Keep up the good work because teachers like you have the ability to leave a deep positive impact on young talented people. There are many negative things in life that are making it very hard for young singers to succeed, but teachers like you are able to give inspiration to continue and pursue that path in spite of troubles. God bless you. Have a nice day.

[@kensei232]

She's an expert level vocal "mechanic"...

[@TheFairyVoiceMother]

Gosh what an absolutely wonderful, kind thing to say. Thank you so much! I'm so glad you're here 💜

[@mauijttewaal]

Yeah she's a musical genius alright;)

[@sweetlard2113]

This guy gets its. The entire point.

[@StrangMuZ6]

Honestly. See all these millions of subs for certain channels but she is most definitely the most precise Vocalist with knowledge.

[@RenThraysk]

Ah first time reacting to Eivor? Definitely recommend watching or reacting to Eivør - Falling Free (Live at the Old Theater in Torshavn) at some point. Or for more of the varied vocal stuff Eivør - The Last Kingdom: Main Theme (Live at Hammersmith Apollo)

[@seanmurphy637]

I second the suggestion of Falling Free. The vocals in that song are the stuff of Vocal Coach wet dreams. Definitely watch it.

[@RenThraysk]

Another folk suggestion. Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live)

[@TonyVeijalainen]

I concur, both.

[@russelhamm3727]

Falling Free is a must watch! You’ll get a more modern version of her style and understand how much talent she really has!

[@MotherofUnicornsProductions]

I came here to suggest exactly those two!

[@River0akes]

I am so excited to see you analyse this performance- it’s even more magical watching you perfectly replicate/demonstrate what is happening as you explain.

[@twinkdiamond7222]

The demonstrations are beautiful!!

[@fernsehdesign]

yes, its amazing you can „replicate“ what you what you just heard (for the first time). And not only in this one video, but basically everytime. That makes you the secret Master in this section of the music business. 🖖🏽🍀

[@Tita_]

"You're never too princessy to beatbox" one of my favourite lines!

[@EgholmViking]

She is from the Faroe islands, just in case no one had mentioned it yet :P She is my grand cousin i believe it is (The Faroese are very interested in family relations and how everyone is related to each other). I remember hearing, how she would go around her village and record some of the older folk songs that the elders remembered to try and preserve them for the future. She has a big range of nordic folk styles and more alternative genres in her repertoire. Can highly recommend more of her music - pretty much any song from her album 'Slør' 'Bird on a wire' 'Falling free' and many more

[@matthewgower1288]

I absolutely love Falling Free! ☺️🥰

[@glacieractivity]

Your pronunciation is not perfect but it really really good (good ear, my friend). Eivør has a master's degree in "North Atlantic traditional vocal techniques" - and she is unleashing her 6 years of study here (combined with her insane talent). A jodle - Norse lokk/kulning is as far as I know an example of "parallel evolution" to the Jodle that evolved later in the European Alps. She is also blending in the traditional techniques of the Sami people's ancient "Joik" with the Inuit/circum Atlantic tradition of throat singing and vocalising inhalations. There is a reason why we Norwegian men are a bit careful around singing women. They have a tendency to lure us into the underworld with their powerful singing. I am old enough to have grown up with grandmothers and grandaunts who knew how to "lokke" (call) animals free roaming in the mountains home. (Edit - I am not going anywhere near Eivør that we as a nation have adopted as our own I secretly love her, though)

[@davidkettell6236]

OOOKAY ?

[@omega1231]

There's a reason why "to lure" is "at lokke"

[@npcfigureathletedawnirish691]

I love White European culture.

[@myriamcroteau7006]

Oh!!! It's wonderful that you have discovered Eivør! Now you need to to react to her performance of Falling Free (Live at the Old Theatre in Torshavn). Here she looks like a feary, but you'll discover her witchy/dark priestess side. And she also reaches some amazingly beatiful high notes in Fallen Free. It's a must watch! I know you will thorouly enjoy yourself! 💖

[@matthewgower1288]

Great song! I’ve listened to it a lot. ☺️🥰

[@I_scribbles]

Yrs one of the best from her, although she got 10+ yrs of musical library, still much to discover!

[@troedelgerry]

Hello ! I have just stumbled across this reaction video, because I was curious to see how YOU would find this incredible song... and your reaction was fabulous ! I love seeing other people falling in love with Eivor immediately, especially when hearing and seeing her with this special performance. Eivor is a 40 year old singer, songwriter and actress from the Faroe Islands (situated between iceland and Scandinavia) and has a big variety of different music styles, such es alternative rock, jazz, rock, singer/songwriter, folk and also classical music, since she is a classically trained soprano. As a next song from Eivor, I can HIGHLY recommend to react to "Falling free (Live at the Old Theatre in Torshavn)" Believe me, you'll be as mesmerized and blown away, as you were here, although it's a TOTALLY different music style. So may I kindly ask you to react to this special song, please ? Best wishes from Germany : Gerry PS : In this video here. Eivor sings in her native language, Faroese. But she also aings in English, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and Icelandic !

[@TO-hz9dr]

So glad you’re reacting to this one! Eivor is incredible and this song is too! I’ve seen her live and she does not disappoint. It is so fun to be up close to her when she starts singing this song, you can feel it in your bones.

[@mrolsen6987]

YES Eivor Yes Yes Yes.. But how *YOU* can just drop every single type of singing!!!!??! From Jinjer growl to Eivor Fairy singing!!! Wow!

[@akyhne]

Best analysis of Eivør on KZbin. You heard all the nuances and gave a thorough explanation. Kudos.

[@Lunarmech]

Every single video, and every single time you demo a technique i'm flabbergasted by how amazing a singer you yourself are. Keep being you!

[@salamanteri_]

I have this song on my chill playlist. Eivør is a pixie and a hobgoblin in the same song, and the place she's performing isn't too bad either. I'd love to go there.

[@TheJohnyNemo]

Faroe islands are breathtaking. If you go there - visit Gjorv

[@mycatistypingthis5450]

I think it's the Faroer islands, which isn't the easiest to travel to.

[@mycatistypingthis5450]

[@nickthepostpunk5766]

I think this counts as my favourite ever vocal coach reaction. I love your enthusiasm, personality, and your obviously deeply intuitive feeling for what another singer is doing to produce the sound. And every now and then you show us your own singing talent and really varied singing skills. 💜 I personally feel this music (and the scenery!) taps into something deep within me.

[@pablotassistro1095]

I HAVE BEEN SINGING THIS SONG TO MY CHILDREN AS A LURBELLY FOR YEARS , LOVE EIVOR

[@styx85]

LOVE LURBELLIES

[@stever7732]

Eivør is a goddess. For one of the all time great live performances you really must do ‘Eivør- Falling Free (Live at the old theatre Torshavn)’. Every KZbin reactor I have seen do that performance has been left stunned. She is from the Faroe Islands, a group of volcanic islands about halfway between Iceland and Scotland with a population of about 54,000 and which are part of the Kingdom of Denmark.

[@npcfigureathletedawnirish691]

Thank you! Might need to move there soon, lol

[@Emilie-one]

I am so impressed with the fact that you can immediately produce the same sounds …your singing voice is amazing! Any genre and style and you nail it! I love your reactions!

[@AnitaAnneLloyd]

Eivor is a Norse goddess. Simply superb.

[@Halli50]

FYI: 'Tródlabúndin' is Faeroese ('Tröllabundin' in Icelandic) and can be translated as 'Troll Bound' in English. Eivör is one of those off-the-scale-talented artists that pop up every few generations.

[@hawk_7000]

Isn't it rather "spellbound"?

[@weepingscorpion8739]

It's actually spelled: Trøllabundin. I don't know why that video has that weird spelling with the grave accents as we don't use them in Faroese. And yes, while the literal meaning of the word is "troll-bound", spellbound is a better translation.

[@LeftyConspirator]

@@weepingscorpion8739 Norwegian here, seconding this explanation. "Trollbunden" literally means to be troll-bound, but figuratively it would be closer to spell-bound in English - captivated by magic, ensorcelled.

[@NativeNewMexican]

Every time I hear you say "hello gorgeous" my day brightens. Very few reactors properly introduce themselves, energetic and to the point. Similarly, you don't cut to the video by itself except when you're not reacting, but intermixing it with your commentary. Nothing irks me more than watching a reactor cut to the video so I can't see their reaction. You're a real gem. On this particular song, it reminds me of the Navajo, Pueblo, and other tribal performances I enjoyed as a child, but from my heritage which somehow gives me a sense of connection to my ancestors.

[@dirkvannieuwenhove]

Eivør is like the most amazing artist I ever got to know, being a musician myself. She masters so many Viking Folk singing techniques, while playing a traditional instrument. She is from the Faroe Islands, her chants are a mix of old Norse, Icelandic and Faroe songs, she also performs in English and wrote on the soundtracks of ‘The Last Kingdom’

[@jennifermcdonald5432]

I have seen many commentators saying this music makes you homesick for a life you’ve never known. I totally agree with that, it takes your soul back to a time before there was really any civilisation. You can feel yourself sitting by a fire, believing in magic and spirits. I am sure someone will have told you but the meaning of the song is The wizard has enchanted me I am spellbound, ect ect

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

true!

[@professoryaffle]

I saw Eivør in January when she was supporting Heilung at Hammersmith. She was brilliant. As were Heilung.

[@poolhallshark]

Absolutely fantastic reaction 🙂 Eivør is Faroese and is an exceptional singer/songwriter and composer. Her arrangements are brilliant. I know for a fact that you will love this one. though it is vastly different from what you just heard. It's from a concert at The Old Theater in Tórshavn (the capital of the Faro Islands) The song is called "Falling Free" and is a true masterpiece. I see that after three days none of the comments has a link in them, so I don't dare to try. But you will find it VERY easily, and it is well wort the "effort" 😉 What I have always been thinking but never have commented on is YOUR voice. It sounds absolutely beautiful, and I am always blown away by the stuff you show off in your reactions when trying to make a point. I dunno how many takes it takes before you get what you want, but that doesn't matter. It is more than enough to impress me. Take care ! Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

a master's degree in "North Atlantic traditional vocal techniques". you can read this a couple of times, hahaha ;)

The audience is so lucky to have such a beautiful ethnic performance with such a picturesque backdrop. Or maybe that's what they do every evening? 5:02 Magic disappearing glasses.

[@mentaliusDK]

I saw Eivør perform this and other songs, back in May - backed by The Danish National Symphony Orchestra. More than magical.

[@TheConsistentoDDity]

I'm so happy you reacted to Eivør! People hear me play her and recognize the voice, but not sure how. It's because she does the vocals for the music in the show The Last Kingdom. She has a live album that absolutely blows me away, but I haven't found a video version of it. And a lot of other live vids on YT are not the greatest fancams. But maybe I haven't searched deep enough. I'd love to be proven wrong!

[@Kodiak660]

I knew it! The last kingdom! Thanks for confirming.

[@Lulabee2024]

I KNEW IT!!! I recognized her tone from the soundtrack as I watched every episode of The Last Kingdom...As I was listening to this...not certain it was truly from the soundtrack...I was tearful, it felt desperate and emotional ..I feel like Native Americans have this sound as well with their yodels and vocal qualities! Now I can put a face to that haunting voice ☺😍

[@JohnGunn]

I LOVE this reaction! It's so cool seeing Eivor's amazing techniques dissected! Her music is all just amazing, especially live! Please check out more!

[@JohnGunn]

Eivor - Salt (Live at the train warehouse) is incredible...I swear, it's like folk crossed with Massive Attack, and it's stunning

[@Matahalii]

The yodles in this natural echo place sound so incredible powerful! And you can understand how old folks used this technique to communicate across a whole valley.

[@mspicer3262]

This was the first performance I ever saw by Eivor, years ago, she is just magnificent...

[@Astro-Markus]

If you want to hear a more contemporary style of music from Eivor, you definitely have to listen to "I Tokuni". Gives me the shivers.

[@atwellorama]

This really just calls out to the inner spirit. Wow. And your voice is awesome, holy cow.

[@Tarkus_]

Best ever reaction and analysis of this fantastic performance! Your ability to break down and even reproduce (beautifully) what she was doing was very impressive. And you have a gorgeous voice yourself! 👍🤟

[@a_lex801]

it will never cease to amaze me how you say you "discover" "unique" sounds people make, and then you are instantly able to reproduce them - i do believe you, 100%, it's just that i find it sooo fascinating how you can instantly recognize where and how those sounds are made, and then you master your own vocal... business so much that you just do them, effortlessly - WOW! 🤯🤯🤯 in other words, i almost envy your passion and years of work it must have taken to get there. (i say almost because envy is not a pretty thing, i'm actually very happy when someone masters their subject of interest that deeply, i just wish i could, but i'm too damned lazy)

[@heidifarstadkvalheim4952]

Thank you ! - Lovely and inforamtive reaction !!! and you also have a beautifull and warm voice ! Eivor is here performing with the Norwegian group Vamp in western part of Norway - she is from Færøyane / Faroe Island

Can we take some time to acknowledge how effing amazing your own impressions of the songs you are reviewing are? Your sense of pitch is impressive!

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

"wake me up", live because it's timeless and without folk-elements, but with absolute breathtaking vocals "gloomy sunday" because she looks damn sexy in suit and tie and delivers the best cover of this famous song "boxes" live 2012 because she uses her higher register in this song "truth" live at studio bloch because it's simply a phenomenal modern song with her lower register "falling free" because it's such a magic performance i never get tired to listen to "slor" london solo sessions because this song is stripped down to her, her voice and her guitar and it's such a wonderful piece of music "í tokuni" music video because it has such an amazing beat and the music video is both eerie and facinating or anything else because there will no disappointment anyway!

Concert filmed atop an old farm old farm Stigen in Undredal (Aurlandsfjorden), Norway. Thanks to @Orjonast for the correction. Amazing performance from a superb artist. There are similar types of singing in Norway, possibly also in other Scandinavian countries. Edit: and thank you for the hug, I feel loved :D

Eivor is unique artist who grew up with traditional Faroese songs. As far I know her first album is based on those songs and also religious Danish songs. She uses old, traditional technics and instruments from Nordic culture but she also uses modern technics. Her songs are all about the love. She has so different colours. She can sing pop, folk, rock, jazz or even some opera. As far I know she studied at the University of Music in Reykjavik. And I highly recommend to go to her live show. Besides, her sister also is a singer and she has her first demo. It's very stylish and unique as well. But what's most important besides English she sings in Faroese.

[@christofferboberg]

This is a fabulous song! And the scenery 👌(it's not a lake but a fjord). You absolutely must take a look at her live performance of falling free from Torshavn.

[@shanaypotgieter2797]

So, vocals (singing) has always been fascinating to me. It often gives me goosebumps, makes me cry or just gives me so much joy right down to my soul.

I find a great deal of similarity between tejano music and polka music. They seem to have their roots somewhere in the mountains of each culture, and they even both incorporate accordion music. Similarly, I hear a great deal of similarity between this and Native American ceremonial music. The tempo and themes are similar and the drum is a central feature of both, as is the yodeling type cries. They are both haunting.

Eivor is magical.

I would love to watch more Eivør with you, especially Falling Free live at the Old Theater in Torshavn!

[@leavemealoneimjustfreespirted]

God, I absolutely love this song and can't wait to see your reaction to it!

[@opalmay70]

What just happened?!?! That was AMAZING! Thank you for sharing and shining your contagious enthusiasm!

[@dgt83]

Eivor is amazing, you should listen to some of the tracks from the Soundtrack for The Last Kingdom. I particularly recommend the theme, and the song Livstraedrir.

Wow... your analysis of my divine Faroese sweetheart couldn't have been much better.. it even surpassed the Charismatic Voice whom I hold in very high regard. The fact that you were able to instantly replicate Eivør's transitions, inflections and throaty goodness proved to me right there that you know of what you speak. And to think this was my first time viewing your channel... I guess I have a lot in store for me! A truly wonderful and witty review. Looking forward to watching more... oh and, like so many here have been recommending.. YES, you MUST check out Eivør's absolute stunner live performance of Falling Free at the Old Theatre in Tórshavn.. the quaint yet very beautiful capital of the Faroe Isles. And some runner ups would have to be the absolutely gorgeous song that is Í Tokuni where you see her floating like an angel in mystical landscapes of Iceland.. and then her touching love story with none other than the Reaper himself in the video True Love. Yes.. a true Faerie indeed... ps. Very pleased to meet you.. albeit virtually ;) Ciao!

First time I heard Eivor was 20 years ago. She did a cd with a swedish musican named Anders Hagberg. The titel track from that cd i used to many of my flyfishingfilms on the tube. The song is called "Stenristarna" a beautiful piece of music. Thank you for a amazing reactionvideo.❤❤❤❤❤

[@karlc9773]

I saw her live last February in Manchester uk, she was brilliant, and she did the music for The Last Kingdom TV series

I got to watch Eivør live back in the late 90's, and later again in the Copenhagen opera house in the early 2000's and both performances were out of this world. I walked around in days afterwards, humming her tunes to myself, lost in thought. The only other singer who has ever left me like that was Bjørk.

[@aeonturnip2]

It never ceases to amaze me how you can replicate these techniques with apparent ease. Less fairy god mother, more fairy vocal goddess!

[@django_aka_stephan5683]

i totally love this kind of music, i listen to it when im in the mountains and enjoy views after riding up the hills on my mtb. and this especially gives me chills every time i listen to it

[@youssefb3599]

Amazing and beautiful voice. Amazing and wonderful reaction! Thank you.

[@allengray5748]

WOW!!! What the FOLK is going on ☺️ Need to hear more of this lady! Thanks to those who suggested this! Great Stuff Lolli! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎

[@hiergibtsnixzuseheneinfach5457]

I'm blown away. What some people can DO with their voices... Amazing :O

[@surf4tex]

Your voice sounds like you’re up there with Eivor in your vocal abilities, sounding amazing 🎤😇

[@obsolete959]

Finally some Eivør! Not my first choice for a song to react to, but seems to be popular among people. She has an amazing discography full of incredible pop and jazz songs. Highly recommended you take a deeper dive into her stuff. She's quite possibly the most versatile singer I know, and often compared to Kate Bush.

[@NealNewman]

Eivor is a force, a phenomenon... You should spend some time with her voice, yes, yes... She's got an incredible voice and the stories she's telling are etheric, spooky and spiritual.

[@moonstenebrocity]

if you like this style of nordic music, i highly recommend reacting to ‘in maidjan’ by heilung. they have 3 main vocalists, christopher juul, maria franz, & kai faust. they do also have a few backup singers, but all their talents together in the song is so mesmerising & i would love to see your reaction & analysis of the vocal techniques they use in the song!

[@Andrew-xn6lt]

Never get to see your premiers live - which makes be sad :( That said, this made me happy :) The combination of human voice and hitting something, that seems to appear worldwide in traditional music. Interesting how most genres of modern music remain human voice (or emulation) and/or hitting something - still doing the same job for us.

[@antivanti]

I knew you'd love this one... Also never ceases to amaze me how you're almost always able to mimic the technique on the spot 😊
