Eivør - Falling Free (Live at the Old Theater in Torshavn) REACTION

[@MrTombre]

this is probably one of the best live performances by any artist ever

[@oskaarao2004]

Amen to that brother 👍

[@MrTombre]

@Frank Warner i had a feeling he would =)

[@huxleyhudson2261]

I guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot the login password. I would love any tips you can give me

[@hughjadiel2999]

@Huxley Hudson instablaster ;)

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

tom, do you know her sister elinborg? kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJfVZ5ilrt2Sr8U

[@Progamer-jv8mb]

Absolutly you need to hear another life performance of her song called wake me up, absolute timeless masterpiece

[@WardDorrity]

Eivør is a Nordic spirit who walks among us. She has no equal. When she chants, that's her Nordic goddess rising up out of her human persona. No other explanation suffices.

[@mr.sudbury3856]

Just a Faroese passing through the comment section. It is okay to cry

[@FabioOsorio619]

The beautiful thing about this song, her delivery and performance, the words written by her , in relation to your reaction, is that art, like this is always left to your interpretation. What you get out of it personal to you, but you cannot deny the emotion she conveys so powerfully that you can feel it through time and space.

[@kentmains7763]

It only takes a few notes and she has you completely under her spell, she is fantastic.

[@gard8995]

Love the reaction man. She is from the Faroe Islands (an island which belongs to Denmark, but have also kept their own old norse language and tradition). A next good song from Eivør is "Trøllabundin" or "I Tokuni", both sung in her own language, Faroese. ❤

[@simonrangeley]

The video of her performing Trollabundin outside by the fjord shows just what an incredible voice she has.

[@Maple837]

This hit me hard.. truly beautiful !

[@MariaSanchez-lp4ff]

You would love eivör with the song tröllabundin

[@oskaarao2004]

yes i second that :)

[@evelisepereira4849]

Sure thing. You must to see this song. I'm impressed. It's a tribal song, kind of "wizard invocation". The song name is «Tròdlabùndin» ( someone in the comments translate as "spellbound") and this show is in Norway. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/raTPXn5-fMpngc0

[@TheFrecklish]

@@evelisepereira4849 song name is actually “Trøllabundin” 😉

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

that "screams" you referring to are called kulning, which is an ancient vocal technique used for example during sheep herding, to call over longer distances. i like "boxes", too.

[@Progamer-jv8mb]

Completely agree with previous comments. Best life performance, one of best creations out there. How it is building up combined with her one in 100000 voice is out of this world. I am not listening to this kind of music but i certainly recognize masterpiece in every aspect starting from voice band lightning and performance..... mind blowing.

[@pamelaaustin2698]

Oh my goodness! Her voice is angelic!

[@MariaSanchez-lp4ff]

One of my favorite artists😄great that you found her

[@oskaarao2004]

hey Maria, check out Bird's Teardrops - Peia Luzzi, Estas Tonne - Ashland, Oregon 2018 :)

[@lianasokara3963]

She is absolutely amazing and that is a huge compliment from a Dimash DEAR !! ❤️🇬🇷

[@ukladyfan6231]

Sometimes I enjoy hearing a stunning female voice siren like as well as Dimash’s incredible vocals 😊❤

[@tadblackington1676]

Goosebumps. Eivor will do that to you.

[@groanitalybeck8765]

Can not believe I have missed your reaction to this one. She’s freaking amazing, I have seen her live 🥰 Greetings from Norway 🤩🇳🇴

[@WhiteTiger333]

That's just the feeling I got when I heard this song. I also feel it is the call of an awakened spirit. The lyrics and the power of the song speak to it so beautifully.

[@massimodalbianco7213]

She’s incredible

[@lisamenster3521]

Eivør is one of the best Singer I've ever heard. She's my absolute favorite and I love the fact that her live performances are exactly like or even better than the official versions. And everytime with a little suprise in it. I've only got from trollabundin 6 different versions. Min modir, salt, her new Segl album, every song from her is simply amazing. I really hope bcuz of the pandemic that I can visit her concert in germany in oct 2021

[@terriheaps3679]

Beautiful voice like an angel! 😇 All her songs are amazing and full of emotion !

[@sujammaz]

i think it's a love song to many things, but most of all to music itself. she is invoking the power of her own voice more than pleading with anyone or anything. that aboriginal, wild style of chanting is very empowering, as it uses the whole body and range, letting the singer experience the pure joy of being able to reach out to the world, free of all restraints. the whole performance is very much about control and power, and letting go of it. if you listen to the lyrics closely, you'll find that her surrender is very much her own, free choice. she is taking a big risk on someone or something, fully aware of the possible consequences. ready to own them.

[@callalily9842]

I love Eivor. I first heard her beautiful voice thanks to my favorite show "The Last Kingdom" on BBC/Netflix. She is amazing. Mesmerizing! This is gonna be a great reaction. Edit: yep it was a great reaction. 😍😘

[@Jeannine2007]

Hi Fil. Just discovered Eivør through a fan video of Dimash where this song accompanied it. How magnificent is her voice!! Then I found your reaction so just had to watch it. I knew you would be enthralled with her and I wasn't disappointed. Before I came here I played her video five times over. She's absolutely fantastic. She is another wonderful artist I have discovered through KZbin rabbit holes in the past two years since falling down the Dimash rabbit hole. Thoroughly enjoyed this! ❤👏👏👏👏

[@rachelbrough8160]

I absolutely love this woman - she is incredible and even more amazing live. This particular performance is epic, an experience of awesomeness. Love your reaction. 😊❤

[@stefaniagombi6528]

What a voice! Chills and chills. Thanks Fil, it's really unreal. Oh My God. Oh My God. Goosebumps in universe. What about instruments... WTF. SPECTACULAR, you are smashing

[@ukladyfan6231]

She’s amazing in this performance and live also . Stunning singer and performer, mystical and beautiful . Dimash Dear approved .Enjoyed your reaction 😊❤

[@MariaSanchez-lp4ff]

She's from the faroe islands

[@Neetia89]

Strongly, strongly, strongly recommend the entire soundtrack from The last Kingdom (Netflix series). It's Eivørs vocals and inspired by old norse music. Absolutely beautiful - each and every piece. It's on Spotify.

[@maubj132]

THE LAST KINGDOM is truly a magical series, the story, the characters, the music everything is just perfect. The emotion of Uthred's character is so powerful, I have cried in almost every scene!!! 😭 DESTINY IS ALL!!!!

[@tracylf5409]

You should tear up or cry at this. If you don't, see someone.

[@Gh0stHack3r.]

Eivør is from faro islands Nice to see you react to our Norse/Scandinavian culture and music. It's a dream world like no other...

[@jamestalkington6306]

She's from the Faroe Islands

[@shukrullosaidov2230]

Hi, beautiful song and amazing performance ❤. First l find her from a Dimash fanvid. She is amazing 👏

[@johnwilliams575]

What a wonderful reaction!!! Must be about the 501st reaction to this performance I've seen your enthusiam is infectious. I'm nowhere near as expressive emotionally as you, but this perfomance fills me with emotion whenever I watch it. Not sure if you've reacted to the live outdoor version of Trollabundin???

[@nickkraitor6560]

I'm glad you have come across this, it's such a great song.

[@greggary7217]

This was a while ago but just for posterity no man, is not despair she’s surrendering to her love for him.

[@littlemouse7066]

she's from the Faroe islands Denmark.

[@roarsthre6015]

You are the first one here on KZbin, to pick up what Eivør is singing about..! The greatest love of all..! Jesus's enormous, eternal love for us humans❤

[@wendyraymond1751]

Wow that was absolutely stunningly beautiful so gorgeous thanku so much very moving ..you are absolutely fabulous fi thanku so much love an god bless x

[@oskaarao2004]

oh man, im so looking forward to this, im commenting before watching, thank you for reacting to this track 👍 edit: wow, what an awsm and amazing reaction brother... Eivør is from Færøyene (group of islands between norway and island and north of scottland) and her music is very spiritual

[@alanmore4904]

That was amazing.

[@kathleensmith3555]

Dont you just love her??? She has a huge amount of fabulous tunes

[@ELDRofficial]

Very special stuff, thank you! This is definitely inspiring for my new solo music project UV 🙏🏻

[@laurelwenson928]

I love the new artists that you bring on board -- that was gorgeous! I'm guessing she's either Scandinavian or Irish from the name -- will be following!

[@meenas8144]

She is from Faroe Islands, Denmark

Eivør Pálsdóttir (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiv%C3%B8r_P%C3%A1lsd%C3%B3ttir) (born 21 July 1983), known professionally as Eivør, is a Faroese singer-songwriter with a distinctive voice and a wide range of interests in various music genres spanning rock, jazz, folk, pop, and European classical music. Her musical roots are in the Faroese ballads. She was born in Syðrugøta, Faroe Islands. At 13 she had her first performance on Faroese television and won a national singing contest the same year.

[@palantir135]

Try Trødlabundin (probably written wrong); live version outside in a fjord. Epic performance.

[@mr.sudbury3856]

Trøllabundin 🤙

[@Kilian600]

Epic EPIC performance !

[@MrTombre]

Eivor sing songs in 6 different languages, Faroese,Danish,Norwegian,Swedish,Icelandic and English

@Frank Warner i had a link up to Eivors wiki page with some info but now it seems to be gone, weird

[@MrTombre]

@Frank Warner yeah, has happend to me several times before as well, put a new comment up with some Eivor links

[@rockonileva]

This live version is amazing, I rarely listen to the original version from the Room album. The original doesn't have this instrumental/vocal-solo section, and the main drive of the instrumental is made by piano.. That semitone dissonance of that 9th on the Gm9 on the piano feels more haunting, but on that guitar, with that beautiful octave reverb it has more of a contemplation vibe to it. From this album, I strongly reccoment True Love ( there a beautiful live version on Helsinki, with a beautiful vocal solo at the end ), Rain, Green Garden and Far Away, the first song I heard from her ( on a tourism promotional video from the Faroe Islands )...

[@rockonileva]

In a more modern vibe, I recommend the Slør and Segl albums, the latter was my favorite 2020 album (and presented me Ásgeir)

[@Glenn056]

Thank you for doing this reaction! My favorite artist of all time, she is an angel. Hope you do more reactions of her work! Some reaction recommendations of her from me: True Love live performance : kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHKYlaF8is1ge7c&ab_channel=SofarSounds (I believe the vocalization of this will blow your mind) Gullspunin live performance : kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWLTcn6bic-agqc&ab_channel=%C3%ADLuftini (Part of her latest album SEGL, song name means Spun in Gold, and is in Faroese)

[@stefaniagombi6528]

Pls pls pls react to some other songs of her! Stunning. She sings in english and in her mother tongue. And again you don't need to understand lyrics. You will be shocked how she is able to transport yourself in another world. Love from Italy

[@marissamcabee6680]

You would love reacting to more of her music, especially Trollabundin where she throat sings. She performs a lot with Einar Selvik from Wardruna. If I remember correctly, you loved Helvegen by Wardruna featuring Aurora. Eivor is the voice you hear on the show “The Last Kingdom.” Edit: I also think you should react to her performance of Salt-Juke Train 218

[@victimnr47]

Eivør is an amazing singer as many have allready said, but have you ever heard her in Clickhaze, a Faroese band she was vocalist in as a teen, look em up

[@wearywarlock8812]

I highly recommend any song from her album "Bridges!" Particularly "My Faithful Friend"

[@YngviFreyr]

I think she's mentioned before that this song was written for a previous relationship (during a live performance when she got her partner to sing with her, which brought on many chuckles :D ) Regarding the addressing a higher power theory, I mean, every work of art is open to interpretation, and that's also the sign of a great work of art, how applicable it is to many situations. I've spoken to her many times and she's such a lovely and open creature, that I'm sure she wouldn't mind that interpretation, if that's what you need from this song :)

[@disacole]

She is amazing. Only just released a new album called Segl. There are already some awesome live performances of that on KZbin :)

[@etelkalafontaine6162]

Listen to the stripped down version of "Rain"

[@jacmon09]

[@mudjekeevis]

Goosebumps!!! She has an amazing voice, definitely a gift from God. And a beautiful reaction from you Fil as always. 😊 Can you please react to So Hyang? If I remember correctly you've never reacted to her. I'm dropping some links here: So Hyang - You Raise Me Up (cover) kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpbCfWylm82Iqpo So Hyang - I Have Nothing (cover) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXfXg4iJhd2Wl9U So Hyang - I Will Always Love You (cover) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoCbZWh7prpmm6c So Hyang - Arirang Alone kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHfcn5eBbruCec0 I humbly suggest you to start from Arirang Alone because it's a folk song of South Korea. And for "I will always love you" I deliberately chose this version because it's filmed in pandemic days, it's for a good cause. And lastly, will you continue reacting to Turkish singers? I'm looking forward to watching other Sertab reactions and "Doğa İçin Çal" videos. Lots of love from Turkey! ❣️

[@0thman916]

I would love to see your reaction Ash Morgan's cover of Never Tear Us Apart

[@roarhunstad5598]

You have to listen to her live performance from Stigen gård in Norway. You will love the setting and her song Trollbundin. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/raTPXn5-fMpngc0 Also her new song Salt played at a trainstation is a must. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4ibm4eml5p4prs

[@thebiglebowski5661]

Amongst all the react videos i saw about this live performance, i think you're the only one who thought about a possible love song to a god of some sort. And you know what ? I thought exactly the same, and i have to tell that i'm not what one call call a religious personn. Definitely not ! Considering this artist has a special relationship with nature, traditionnal fold nordic music and song, this "god" might very well be just nature, beautifullness, not a god in a traditionnal way people think about but in a tribal way. Maybe that's the reason why it touches your very soul when you just listen to this pure angel voice.

[@agusbtomk]

[@mentaliusDK]

I love this song, and a great reaction. However, I totally disagree with the interpretation; being religious, hearing the agony, desperation. I hear an ode to pure and unconditional love. Rather than religious I hear a more earthy kind of spirituality,

[@livus3787]

Yup yup yup. Or, the other way around - a goddes (sees the future, stories in their eyes) >falling< for a human love :))) atleast thst's how I'll take this from now on 😁

[@leecottam4598]

I think it is up to individuals to interpret the song how they see it and the meaning it has for them. However, I feel it is about being so desperately in love with someone that all you see is that person.

[@frisco-2.0]

Please listen to Eivør's new album 'Segl'!!!!❤️

[@philwragg9756]

no it's about finding your soul mate

[@livus3787]

So far I took it as a love song, and almost sure she meant as a love song too, BUT, since you mentioned God, from now on I will interpret for myself like this: a GOD/GODDESS (she can see their future, see stories in their eyes) is falling for a human being, *now* surrendering, falling down, the shamanic chanting - spiritual experience for sure :)))

[@tracylf5409]

No, not a god delusion. You can find comfort in your fellow humans and etc.
