Kurt Nilsen - One

[@brandywest2674]

Kurt Nilsen has the best voice ever. One of the most talented singer and writer around.

[@redrumax]

He is amazing!!

[@gheehead111]

His voice is clear, on target, in tune and amazing. It's an incredible musical instrument that he is totally in control of. He's incredible.

[@catwoman807]

Kurt Nilsen has the best voice I have ever heard!!

[@paulanergut1594]

+Deb Hills do u know Freddy Mercury?

[@catwoman807]

[@oshawott4218]

I thought that too for a long time until I heard Lewis Capaldi.

[@catwoman807]

@@oshawott4218 Great Thank You. I will look him up.

[@susannah349]

I just love his singing. It just has that something, I don't know what it is, but it is just awesome. I wouldn't care if he was purple and had horns. His singing is what we all love.

[@68coneejo]

HE'S AMAZING i mean ....i cant even explain how much i love his voice!!!

[@starseedmiracle]

Gosh, the talent just oozes from Kurt Nielsen. Damn he is brilliant. He makes the music sound so easy.

[@alcoyne3333333333333]

From a 53 year old Irish u2 fan. That's my favourite song of all time . Wow he was fantastic

[@ericnoon8793]

[@hifive7366]

what about Pavarotti?

[@robbie121981]

Love his voice, beautiful..

[@pathpub]

What a talented guy..... Voice is truly spectacular

[@muffinpuppy089]

While Kurt won this competition because of his vocals, his choice of songs was also brilliant as they allowed him to so effectively show what he was capable of doing vocally.

[@monlyn75]

He is just so amazing! One of my favorites!

[@toniho13]

I listen to all his performances every day...amazing voice:3

[@becamarko]

U2 - one of my favorite bands ever, but Kurt kicks ass with this version!

[@bridgetquigley9003]

That ending is worth the wait. I played it back 3 times. Perfect.

[@freja462]

Love U2 and I think Kurt does a fantastic version of this song, he clearly is very talented. I will definitely buy his music, I love his voice.. For his looks? Who cares? Besides I think he looks cute :) I love the gap between his teeth it makes him stand out.

[@Remirath1]

You are the best Kurt!

[@SemNomesPossiveis]

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mrsmashsunshine4790]

Koryteller lær å tell, fantastisk navn å ha da. Skulle ønske jeg hadde det, strøk for andre gang på matte eksamen nå.

[@urszulami817]

super głos najlepszy

[@cyl742]

Now I really love this song. I found it very blah before...sorry Bono.

[@Bak3dB3an]

That's an amazing U2 album btw. The feel, tone and imagery.

[@nailortaborda3650]

esse cara é o máximooooooooooooooooooooooo

[@433stevo]

Respect from Serbia

[@kaskad9501]

Kurt Nilsen 💖💖💖 with love from Russia 👍

[@pranay1731]

The best Cover of 'One - U2'. I'd say its better than the original.

[@luvnirvana220]

I am glad I'm not the only dork who thought of Metallica's song too. I wasn't picturing him singing it, Lol

[@djxxxplicit]

Kurt should be the lead singer for U2

[@ashleyhightower6592]

Please world seeeeeeeee him

[@davidbagley1783]

Kurt is awesome

[@Catherineslove]

wow.. that must be hard to speak one language and sing in another.. he did great.. love it. i have spoken English my whole life.. i have tried to learn other languages and i just cant do it..lol

[@OriginalPuro]

Norwegians and other Scandinavians learn English from the age of 7 or 8, we're also fairly bilingual from birth as we speak similar to Swedes and pick that up very fast. Bilingualism is awesome.

[@chrisgemmell102]

legend

[@shynicorn3193]

Loved it

[@Hauiti.D]

magnifique!!

[@tmthomas916]

Beautiful! I'd love to see him sing it with Mary J Blige!

[@Sh0ked]

You're Awesome

[@BigDinthemix]

amazing:D u2 should be ashamed:) best voice in the world:P

[@armageddon7779]

Yep, he sung it better than the original.

[@davesaysfu1]

Dave's wife here......................I AM IN LOVE! ( shhh, Dave knows...calm down)

[@68coneejo]

Dave Green haaha

[@landje58]

Grandioos gezongen!!!!

[@OrangeTabbyCat]

Love U2 but his voice has more power

[@khuzaimahkhalid5848]

Goose bump

[@ristridin_photography]

...as it says in the description it is U2....

[@mariusstrmglendrange2411]

Got to say, heard U2 live before, and Bono didnt Even come CLOSE in any of the song he sang, Kurt = Fucking KING !!!!

[@amcw]

@deepfred57 fyi Kurt has been writing his own material fore many years. This was on Idol and therefore he had to sing mainly covers. In the final he actually sang 1 of his own songs and majority of material on his 1st 4 solo albums were with self written material. Try listening to Never Easy, Rise To The Occasion, and his new song The Messenger. English is not Kurt's mother tongue either. I'm not dissing Bono, just stating some facts.

[@MrFockya]

Better than the original ❤

[@Chrisfragger1]

HAHAHA I came here expecting to hear him cover One from Metallica! Still an excellent performance like all his other covers and original songs.

[@davesaysfu1]

0:48 .........into the song and ........ Bono, you're toast!

[@theAndrimusic]

He's absolutely better than bono and many other !

[@mrman5566]

Scandinavian countries get English and German/French taught in public school, in addition to their native languages.

[@lukemurrells1554]

I think this song was sung very well, you should be proud of your self dude. Jeg tror denne sangen ble sunget godt, bør du være stolt av deg selv kompis.

[@deepfred57]

@NotJustAnyNarWhal i don't hate him ! lol i'm a big fan of U2 and when i hear some one telling that his version is better than the original.....grrrrrr lol but i respect his talent! true i'd like to hear him on his own songs ! and not shining on big songs from other artists ^^ bono's voice in 1987 was just...beautiful nilsen must write songs and not just interpret. friendly.

[@drakepit]

I would I could sing like he. I would never complain about that I never learned to play any instrument.

[@deepfred57]

how old is he?? look a t video's when bono was 25 year old exemple : Pride original version... and you can compare there's no "photo" lol

[@carlos.deoliveirafilho]

biblical!

[@hiephoi058]

Kurt > Bono

[@labbern]

Her er One sin U2?

[@zomaarzonderreden]

Wow, it's almost like Bono!

[@riffism]

@kylepooler77...he's being coy and modest when he says he is "terrible at songwriting". He has written songs either for, or with, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash, Keith Richards, Luciano Pavarotti, Sinéad O'Connor, and Howie B. among several others. Not to mention penning lyrics on every U2 album to date. I'd hardly call that "terrible".

[@riffism]

@huttisau...remember, Bono has been singing constantly for 25 years longer than Nilsen. The voice is an instrument that wears out over time. Bono in his prime was FAR better because you have to take into account his WRITING. Kurt's a great singer and I TOTALLY dig his voice....but he can only be compared to Bono when he has written 20+ top 40 hits and an album like Joshua Tree, which stands the test of time as one of the top albums in history. 3 decades and still making hits...Bono rocks.

[@freja462]

@ TayDizzle24.. erm.. Well if you speak another language you will know the meaning of the words and thus know the meaning of the song.. I speak 6 different languages (4 fluently).

[@TaylorDolniak]

...they call text SMS there too? odd.

[@taekaboybaho2]

i thought it was metallica's ONE

[@soferinho]

nie wiem o co wam chodzi ale koleś wyp..dala na maxa. a jak się nauczycie polskiego to pogadamy. buzi pa

[@777Jolene]

he has a voise like Hm.............something Peace out there

[@cgregory848]

wow! sings the song way better than bono.

[@Irishbomerz]

C Gregory no mate

[@El_contador75]

yes mate !

[@randyjames6991]

He's good but no mate he's not bono

[@sergiocorral6753]

His voice sounds just like Bonos'

[@loydchristmas23]

Sergio Corral What? No.

[@1BigBen]

wish he do more solo without the 3 sidekick

[@SamuelCiganik]

he has voice like Bono

[@freundin22]

@huttisau ok, that's your opinion.. i didn't think so..

[@TaylorDolniak]

If this whole thing is in a different language, how do they understand the song....? is like listening to Ave Maria to us or something, don't call me stupid, just wondering?

[@rafaelfacciomoraes]

12 dentistas não gostarão do video!! kkkkkkk

[@imedi]

you for forgot roy orbison

[@cuchelo1]

@hanzipils Just because BigDinthemix is clearly an idiot doesn't mean Kurt should be slighted... He actually has some great original music as well as doing amazing covers.

[@myskijn]

haha no, it cost 4,50kr, which equals to about 70 cent (US)

[@mareckbamf]

So the other day I was wondering what would happen if Jussi Bjorling knocked up Janis Joplin. It's nice to not have to wonder anymore.

[@433stevo]

Bravo Kurte Srbine:--)))

[@33Grumpy]

Unfortunately poor sound quality....but GREAT PERFORMANCE!

[@BigDinthemix]

@woldi89 Please don't start another argument haha. Just appreciate this version for what it is and respect both artists... But no doubt kurt is fantastic, and i'll be the first to admit that i'm responsible for a large percentage of views on this video lol, Peace.

[@dsfsdfsdf23232]

can he hit high notes at all??

[@Tuttermane]

check out 3:19

[@kylepooler77]

@riffism only major song bono wrote was "the sweetest thing". He even admits that hes terrible at writing songs

[@blueey5348]

He is so good that he makes the band sound like sh!t.

[@Koryteller]

They have to pay 4,500 kr per vote? Damn.

[@BigDinthemix]

@hanzipils i personally dont think bono is that good of a singer live but hes ok i suppose ive never really toke the time to experience u2 but although u2 have produced unique and amazing songs their is no doubt that kurt nilsen is better from a vocal standpoint? but u2 are entertaining and satisfy the world :) check out never easy and my street kurt nilsen wrote them:D not wanting to argue and maybe my comment was portrayed wrongly:D

[@KIronManz]

@king0228 no, it isn't. :D

[@MrWeedon1000]

BONO CAN NEVER BE NUMBER 2!!!!!

[@thebluefish177]

@maggotvenger94 now it has 1 dislike :(

[@84latipa]

bono reborn and improved

[@mrman5566]

If you sat down and learned enough Spanish to understand it, would you really want everything in your country to be shown and spoken in Spanish?

[@Katiee081288]

Bono could clean his shoes ;)

[@Bigturns33]

Ya he can cover the shit out of U2

[@cuchelo1]

@BigDinthemix You know what- I was *kind of* a dick, and you have every right to call me out on it. Sorry for that. Music is completely subjective- what is great for some is terrible to others. I don't like starting arguments in forums like this- even when people disagree I think there's still a way to be cool with each other. For me, U2 is the greatest *band* ever. And Kurt Nilsen is *one* of the greatest vocalists ever. But that's my opinion. Others might feel differently.

[@1SharonSharalike1]

The flat-out best version of this song is Mary J Blige singing it with Bono and U2. ZpDQJnI4OhU

[@huttisau]

@freundin22 Never said, that he performed this song better...i said he's a better singer than Bono....and that's my opinion!

[@Stoertebekerxyz]

Das ist nicht singen, das ist Stimmenimitation.

[@italoplf]

Bye bye Bono!

[@davesaysfu1]

Agree BIG TIME!

[@TheMaersk12]

Bla bla bla bla bla U2's One bla bla bla bla bla Kurt !! **CLAPPING HANDS**
