Original Song:
• Eivør Pálsdóttir: Tròd...

[@VerchielxKanda]

Imagine being in a fishing boat and hearing that voice reverberate off the mountains-

[@grembrett]

Eivør has one of those voices that bring tears to the eyes every time!

[@philk9227]

Eivør is never less than incredible but this performance is almost as if she was channeling the very spirit of the dramatic fjord landscape. Major chills!

[@roemiroemi6791]

eivor ist unglaublich sobald sie anfängt zu singen ist man in einer anderen welt sie transportiert soviel magie und seele in die töne

[@jadedlotuz5095]

I realy like how she manage to escalate the power in the song for each cycle. It starts beautiful and somewhat subdued, then it get stronger, and then even stronger in the end! Realy magical. Cheers

[@Kilian600]

Eivør isn't just music, it's an experience

[@WardDorrity]

She is so beautiful and unaffected in that lovely dress and the music just pours out of her. It's as if she opens the gates to her soul. And it's an ancient Nordic soul.

[@antivanti]

Very aptly named piece of music as it absolutely makes one spellbound

[@timheacox7565]

Saw her show in Boulder back in August. Got to meet her before the show for a bit. A super nice person and a great show!

[@John-re2qw]

This gets my vote for the most beautiful music video ever made. I am just totally enthralled every time I watch it.

[@rgCA_01123]

This is so, so beautiful ❤️ My goodness, the world has so much to offer....thank you for getting me outside of my tiny bubble to experience this ❤️

[@rosalieelliottofficial]

:)

[@toreheggelund612]

Its from a mountainfarm above Sognefjorden in Norway. Its from a concert with "Vamp" a great Norwegian band. Eivor was a guestvocalist. Check out their "Tirna Noir"..

[@Accolonian]

A fun detail is that this song is one she has developed over a long time, so it often morphs into new versions. It's often more like she is jamming over the main themes of the song.

[@jonathanwetherell3609]

The best musicians respond to how they feel at that moment.

[@frosty6960]

Check her 2023 version about 1 month ago .. its wow

[@poolhallshark]

Beautiful reaction! Angelina, Aurora and Eivør. My top 3 artists in the world. Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

i have put it in the right order for you: eivor, susanne and anna. love from iceland

[@helenespaulding7562]

This type of music reaches something deep in our DNA. Chanting like this us found all over the world in many cultures. It feels wild and ancient and free. Have you heard Aurora with Wadruna? Similar feel. You would LOVE it.

[@allyhewitt1300]

Here in Scotland, and Ireland, our Celtic traditions tell us that we never trust the fae folk. Eivør is those fae folk, beautiful and tempting. I've been lucky enough to see her a few times, and she is as amazing as you would expect. Truly briliant.

[@michaeld.9890]

My favorite song of hers! Just amazing !

[@lynnef1988]

Eivør is amazing. I love her song Gullspunnin! The lyrics are beautiful.

[@hotseat2]

Eivor‘s concerts are an experience in itself. Can’t wait to see her live again,soon.

[@MattiasWirf]

Eivør is amazaing, my favourite singer. The work she has done for The Last Kingdom show for example (there is a from home peformence of that on KZbin), is fantastic.

[@GothicNight21]

I had to make a presentation about Faroese Islands in one my subjects (I'm studiyng tourism to complete my past studies) and I included this song in the power point. Everybody got amazed

[@Anonymousones1]

I can picture Viking ships coming up the valley wow ❤

[@willeymiller4760]

Just wow I am so glad you did this one I love her style and her voice is special everytime I hear her I get lost in it so thanks for this ride today. as always your ride or die forever EyyyyOooo.

[@flamedealership]

Who needs future technology from Star Trek when all it takes is a woman with a beautiful voice and a song to transport you to another place. That place could be a scenery from Lord Of The Rings, Game Of Thrones, a tribal gathering of indigenous North Americans as well as of ancient Vikings. Outstanding! I totally agree with your statement on music and it's universal character to reach deep into our souls with or without lyrics, Rosalie. The ability to convey emotions, to tell a story even without words, to soothe the listeners, fire them up, make them smile or deeply touch them obviously isn't bound to understanding the language even when lyrics are used. A shout out to the great community on this channel to come up with the musical gems they're proposing to you, Rosalie. I've learned so much new stuff here about music from all over the world. This channel is an inspiration and some sort of musical home at the same time. I know it sounds kinda cheesy but is an honest desciption of my appreciation.

[@GryLi]

Eivør is so talented im so glad there still are Northern folk songs like this

[@ringmoen1]

Eivør is amazing and this was filmed in Norway ❤️

[@rx7dude2006]

Between her and Aurora both absolutely amazing artists.

[@animistchannel]

"Joy and sadness are sides of a coin, and I'm still not sure which is the better teacher, or the better friend. I can only be grateful to spin the disk just one more time, and proceed to the next circle and gate." -- Amber Bear (a northern shaman) For what it's worth, what you may call "shamans" using the Mongolian word, or "noaddje" among my own people, are not an ethnicity nor even really a tradition. These are the Returning, and they all have more in common with each other then any have with the host culture to which they attend. This is not a function of human psychology nor sociology, but rather the fact of what they really are. They may come among any creatures who are aware of their own awareness, and have proceeded since the Ordivician times of this world.

[@kentmains7763]

She's truly one of a kind!

[@brianrussell6570]

If the earth could sing ..it would have her voice

[@sigrid129]

Voices from nature always capture you

[@jcd57]

You can not stop listening, very special. Somehow i would not be surprised if this would be sung by native americans either.... Very universal.👍

[@mentaliusDK]

Just bought 2 trickets to Viking - a symphonic quest. Will be my 3. concert with Eivør:) Singing with Einar selvisk and The Danish Symphonys Orchestra. Looking forward to it.

[@christianmeyer6724]

Thanks for reacting to such "non-mainstream" music ! There is so much fascinating talent out there - deserves to be showcased and appreciated. Music can be much more than just nicely arranged notes - an experiance. To me this a masterful example of art. Like your comments a lot !

[@simplemind6587]

What a beautiful, passinate reaction! I can subscribe to everything you´ve said. Listening to Eivor´s voice and music is sometimes as listening to something only the gods were supposed to listen...

[@bjornbear6856]

Fantasic reaction! That's Eivor for you. She is just amazing. To see her live is an experience. She and her music is so fowerful. If you ever get the chance, go see her live! Be safe

[@eviljeep]

One of that voice that can struck the heart at the first note 👌

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

her voice cuts through every cell of your body. love it

[@PK--ITA]

Thx Rosalie!! btw. behind her back (this beautiful view) it's not a river but a fjord, it's a part of the sea penetrating inland. Her voice and creativity are just great. I also recommend other songs, including the whole albums "Room" & "Salt"(Falling Free - live version 😍😍)

[@perthfalcon]

I found this a long time ago but it always sends chills down my spine. I had a very similar reaction on first listen, really awesome to see how much you liked this too 🙏

[@Z_TPI]

An enchanted forest is a location beyond which people normally travel, where strange things might occur, and strange people might live, the home of monsters, witches and fairies. This is what I picture in my mind whenever I hear this song. And I hope I find this place one day 🤣

[@crhu319]

The music of the trolls calls to her people... Here on the Internet!! Where trolls are native. This is our music moin moin

[@helenespaulding7562]

What you are doing here, mixing music with psychology snd sociology, is really a branch of cultural anthropology….. almost ethnomusicology. Certainly sets you apart from other reactors. Love your format

[@barrygunningham5658]

One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written and sung

[@johandewit8418]

This one I have seen before, but it’s a while ago. And again it hits deep. Though I didn’t understand the words, it touches the deepest parts of my soul! The melody of her voice, the rhythm of the drums, it’s enough to make the song epic! Thanks for reacting to this one Rosalie!

[@i-klaus]

I think your goosebumps come from the difference between the warmth that the music creates inside you and the coldness of reality outside.

[@thomashoffmann3656]

I signed in to your page because I have seen you reacting to her the first time. And I am so glad to see that you've taken this performance as the next step into her world. She is using her breath for vocalization, breathing in and out and vocalizing at the same time. This is so gorgeous and raw and so unique. I have never seen an artist like her doing this in this way before. This whole song is pure emotion for me. As I have said the first time, Eivør is a gift to music. Thank you for listening to this performance and for sharing your thoughts about it.

[@tanjaherzer9359]

Thank you so much for this video. I´ve been watching many reactions to her chanting Trodlabundin, but your reaction is so authentic and is not focused on the technical capabilities but how Eivor connects with just everyone who is listening. Mesmerized is the perfect word to describe what happens whike listening to her.

[@tchemmer]

Actually, I've seen a few vocal coaches react to this and Eivor flattens them. Nobody can explain what she did. I'm so glad you got to see this, Eivor getting back to her viking roots, and this is a woman who sells out concert halls. We all need to stay in touch with who we are. I have a small list of songs that I recommend to people, this performance is one of them. Try Angelina Jordan at Jake and Rachel's wedding. She was outdoors and the background was spectacular, like Eivor had a spectacular setting for this

[@einarthormodster95]

I love both this channel and The Charismatic Voice! This was a fantastic reaction and, as usual, a fantastic conversation as dessert 🙂 Greetings from Norway

[@rosalieelliottofficial]

what a kind comment!! thank you. To be mentioned along side the greats like the Charismatic voice is an honor. I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@enkiskayn667]

Really cool reaction. Got the goose bumps all time 🙂 Eivørs cover of Hound of Love from Kate Bush is a must see 😉 And take look at the band Kalandra. They are great

[@ChelseySmith-gg9rb]

I am so glad I found you! I love your reacts ❤she’s one of my favorite singers ❤

[@ChelseySmith-gg9rb]

I’ve been listening to her for years one of my favorite live shows from her! Every time I listen to it always get goosebumps and sing along. I already memorized all the words to this song 🎧 from all the times I listen to it 😂❤

[@JohnGunn]

YES! I'm so glad you're experiencing this one!

[@larryc3860]

"Trollabundin" ( troll-bound or spellbound ) ....the song is about being in a spell from a wizard of nature.....Eivor is from the Faroe Islands, off Iceland's coast, and the language is Faroese......check out ANY of her performances on KZbin and you will smile........

[@DavidStruveDesigns]

There's something enchanting about ancient, old or rarely-heard languages. I get the same goosebumps listening to songs in the various Celtic languages that are still being kept alive around the UK and the Republic of Ireland. They have a way of giving you a temporary, solid connection to your ancestors and an ancient, slower way of life that a lot of us feel the call of - even though we've never actually experienced it. It's magical :D

[@crhu319]

Music of the Far North has many similarities. Eivor learned throat singing from Tanya Tagaq of Nunuvat. Of course the Norse and Inuit met in Greenland and coexisted for 400 years, so it cannot be the first such learning. The Chulym of Siberia (see the band "Otyken") and other Siberians (Olox for a start) have similar sounds in their work.

[@gustavgans7366]

When you have the chance to hear her live: USE IT!!! Also verry good songs of Eivor: Í Tokuni, True love, Verð Mín, ... Also exceptional Artists are Aurora and Wardruna. When you have some time, check it out ;)

[@danielstephens1185]

Every time, every dang time I listen to this video of her singing...I swear the moment they start doing the flyover footage of the fjords and islets, mountains, I become absolutely sure that dragons, trolls, pixies, and the like are there. Just off camera. This is true Bardic magic. More. She's a Skáld!

[@leesilverness4296]

Thanks for reacting to Eivor, she is excellent. I recommend checking out her version of "May It Be" and her London Solo Sessions. She has a lot to check out and enjoy.

[@mikepetrimoulx933]

I loved the last kingdom, your facial expressions 😂

[@bengtmoss-petersen3126]

Thanks, ladies!

[@JohnHF1957]

The production values of the Norwegian broadcaster NRK are second to none and allow the artists that they record to shine more brightly. That is certainly the case here and it is incredible what they have managed to achieve in such a remote location. It is the same for Aurora's Nidarosdomen and HAIK concerts and so many others.

[@zenszufi]

Hello, I felt that you would like this wonderful song....😀

[@peterdoe2617]

Heute mal nur auf deutsch: ich hab' sie jetzt schon 2 mal gesehen. Jeweils am12. Okt. in Hamburg. Kaum 200 Zuschauer. Ist das zu fassen? Durch dieses Lied hab' ich sie gefunden.Blumenkranz im Haar (heidnisch. Ich bin Atheist.) Wenn Du die Chance hast: hingehen! Aus das Publikum ist friedlich/freundlich. Vielleicht sehen wir und in Hamburg. Ich werde mit Freunden bestimmt wieder da sein.

[@narvik9035]

The chanting sounded similar to Mari Boine who is a Sami (Lapland) singer from Finnmark, Norway. It also reminded me of a shamanic singer from Yakutia, Siberia.

[@norse-nilsbjasa]

LOve your reaction to this! Tròdlabùndin = bound by trolls = entralled. bùndin = zu binden = to bind --> bound, it all stem from old Norse you know. Eivør is a guest artist here with the Norse band called Vamp. They are celebrating their 30 years jubeleum as a group, and are a national treasure. Their texts are in Norwegian and their sound is folky, there's some Irish folk inspiration, they have named it North Sea music. The drummer joining in is named Odin, as in the main Norse god, before Christianity. They let Eivor do some of her own work as part of the performance. The place is named Stigen (as in the ladder), probably due to the steep terrain you must master to make your way up from the fjord. It's on the UNESCO's protection list for it's unique placement, style, history. Vamp's most known song is Tir n'a noir (a mythical Irish place), text by my history teacher at high school. Here from same concert: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2irgmSLYtp6l7c or in english translation by Emi Fujita kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6e6qKx7rNybjKs .

[@davidanderson5259]

Yeah...that vocalization on the inhale gets me every time too. Dunno if it's a recognized technique or there's a name for it, or it it's just something Eiivor does. The drums breaking in too...epic indeed.

[@daleheldberg6568]

You said you could cry, you could laugh. I do both still, though I've watched the video many times

[@kikitricon5981]

superbe !!!

[@weepat5325]

I loved your reaction to this song, both your commentary and your physical/emotional reactions. You should check out Heilung live at castlefest, The whole concert is great, but start with In Maidjan.

[@bartoszskopiak7012]

Top top reaction bravo

[@jabbazabba23]

This one was spiritual for me, like AADAT, but different. AADAT had the essence of spiritual unity in instruments., like fellowship. This one has the spirituality of nature. I felt like Pocahontas listening to this 😊

[@ryanjohnson4239]

Makes me long for my ancestral homeland that I've never visited.

[@Morpholaf]

Loved your reaction =) Had to check if you had covered Helvegen with Wardruna and Aurora, but couldn't find it in your videos. Mentioning tribal folklore, deep spiritualism, and mesmerizing drums; I would absolutely recommend this one =) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJ_Ohah-hZ6kadE

[@eTraxx]

Really admire your passion! I would like to suggest eivor singing the oldest hymn in the Nordic countries .. here is the 'about' from the page .. Kolbeinn Tumason was a good poet and for the Battle of Víðines he wrote the hymn Heyr, himna smidður, which is still in the Icelandic hymn book and is the oldest hymn that exists in Icelandic and in fact the oldest hymn in the Nordic countries. Kolbeinn got a stone in the forehead which became his death. Here, the Faroese songstress, Eivör Pálsdóttir, sings Kolbein's hymn to Þorkel Sigurbjörnsson's song at Björgvin's Christmas Party 2015. - kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4m4k4ajl9iSosk

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

listening to this makes me proud being icelandic. a truly beautiful song!

[@Zepherian]

Norse beatboxing. Cool. So this is what they get up to when they're frozen into their houses. Lovely song, world class.

[@chiefgl1161]

That lady has got some pipes. Joy indeed. Maybe also look at Heilung - Anoana or at Jonna Jinton - The Spirit Song (A Nordic Lullaby).

[@goeranm55]

Your intuitive interpretation of what is going on is so to the point, and I am sorry I didn't see this video of yours until two months after. BUT! The english lyrics you read from is a bit oversimplifying. The song is not about a wizard, it is about a "Galdrmadur" = a man who teaches the art of galdr en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galdr . In short it is a way of casting a spell, used in everything from war to love. The singing on the inhale she does twice is one late interpretation of how these galdrs (sounds weird with english plural s...) could have sounded. She sings in Faroeese (as you correctly say) which is the nordic language most close to the old norse ( the "latin" of our little corner of the world)

[@lenechristiansen2663]

Wow, beautiful music. Thank you Rosalie. If you´d like to hear more scandinavian music, I can highly recommand you to listen to Trolltind by Lumsk. A story about a wedding between trolls, that didn´t end very well, because the sun came up while drinking and having fun... beautiful song. Hugs from Lene61/Denmark

[@bartonbagnes4605]

Very tribal feel. Great vocal range.

[@Stranglethroat]

So yeah she's pretty good.

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

wake me up is an absolute banger

[@norkannen]

Eivor was actually together with Norwegian band Vamp on this occasion in Norway singing her song at a Vamp break and also did a duet together with Vamp on one of their songs🤗❤️🇧🇻 Tir N'a Noir : kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2irgmSLYtp6l7c

thanks for the link!

[@peterdoe2617]

Update: She'll come to Hamburg oct, 2nd. I've already got my ticket. IGNEA from the Ukraine will come here on oct, 5th. Why mentioning? IGNEA did a cover of her song i tokuni (in the fog), once. Just bought my ticket for that occasion, too!

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

music and psychology, did i hear right? then please react to "when the lord" by susanne sundfor. you will never forget this song, i promise!

[@markusweimar3539]

She learned Faroese throat singing from her grandmother

[@atinker7575]

keep it up, love it

[@rosalieelliottofficial]

thank you so much!!! this is encouraging! truly!! thank you :)

[@soleywolfgangsdottir]

@@rosalieelliottofficial i can highly reccomend a norwegian artist, susanne sundfor and the song "when the lord". it is a feature song for a norwegian documentary titled "self portrait" about the norwegian fotographer lene marie fossen, who suffered from anorexia since the age of ten. she took incredible portraits, despite her serious illness. she said about her work that its about human suffering more than being of a sick fotographer. she died short before the film premiered at the age of 34. you see suanne appearing in the video, too, since she became friends during their work together. it's such an emotional journey, an artwork more than a simple song. i wonder anyway why noone talks about susanne sundfor, she was already a superstar when aurora was a teenager and she is a role model for so many young women in the scaninavian music business.

[@skytte71]

I agree (about cultural "aproproation"), we all learn and are inspired by each others, which in it's essence, is a sign of love and respect. I'ts all a part of the natural order and develpoment of things/human kind. And we wouldn´t be who we are, or be, where we are to this day, if it wasn´t because we learned from each other. Whether something should be considered good or bad, it all depends on what we do with these things, and how we express certain things or aspects of things. And whether we exploit things purely out of selfish intentions, versus, doing things for a greater good and for other beneficial reasons then just our own good / selfish "needs"/pleasure. It a nonconscious behaviour to a degree, and a misuse of power and an attempt to exercise control/sovereignty over others thoughs and opinions, and a monopoly of what is believed to be considered right vs wrong, good vs bad, mine/yours vs theirs etc. It's a behaviour and mentality that has similarities with the woke culture and cancellation culture, where many of these people, often even don't understand, that they are actually doing the exact same thing against others, inwhich they think they are fighting against. I do however recognize the need for it, after many generations of imbalance, which have created an opposite counter culture/counterbalance. So i guess this tendency falls under the expression: "sometimes extreme circumstances requires extreme measures" (that it is sometimes necessary to over-exaggerate things in order to raise the awareness, of for example, many years of in-equality.

[@boyzclub24]

Greetings from Germany :-) I believe that if you are wondering why this music in combination with the setting has overwhelmed you so much, the answer might actually be quite simple: It is, to some extent, part of our DNA. I mean, historically speaking, there have only been four major cultural migrations: the African, the Asian, the Arabic, and the Scandinavian. And a significant part of the world's population with European roots has a Scandinavian background. And it has now been proven that DNA has a memory. So when we see and hear something as primitive as this, it triggers this memory and we feel a certain connection, even without understanding a word or knowing why. In German, I would now say: "It is more than just entertainment. It is a conversation." In German, both are written the same ("Unterhaltung"), but in context they mean different things. Here, it is not just about "entertaining" in the sense of amusement, but the artist is having a "conversation" or dialogue with the audience. She is telling us a story, and even though we don't understand a word, it feels familiar. That is, in my opinion, the magic behind it. Personally, I also experience this with Irish folk (-rock), which has a similar energy. Or with the Scottish Highlands, when I see them. If you want to enhance your experience with this song even more: there is a live version together with the Danish National Orchestra. It's even more epic :-)

[@torbjornsjooander5625]
