REACTING TO Eivør - Gullspunnin

[@DoulosHupsistos]

Love your pure reactions! :D Greetings - again, here from Eivør's home country. We here in the Faroe Islands, are only 54.000 people. And all of us, love and stand behind her. She is our Faroese Pearl, that we deeply care about, we love her, and seeing how people all around the world, open their heart for her, we are thankfull and honored. :)

[@Geoskan]

This woman NEVER disappoints... So haunting...

[@leesilverness4296]

You should do a reaction to her performance of "True Love" which is in Los Angeles presented by SOFAR which I think means songs from a room. It's an excellent song and really showcases her singing and guitar playing. It blows me away every time I watch it.

[@Scalemailmailmail]

Yes! Thats amazing!

[@paulahrendt1766]

I first heard of Ivor 2 days ago looking for music with my Viking roots. This was my 1st song. I reacted just like you. Angelic voice. Makes my soul resonate & tears flow

[@tracylf5409]

"Eivør is in a league of her own". THANK YOU! I"m so over people comparing her to other artists (though good) who are NO WHERE NEAR Eivør's talent. Thank you for saying this. There is no comparison.

[@eviljeep]

Am I the only one who's having humid eyes like 5 seconds after she's open her mouth? Each times? Beautiful unique artist 👌

[@paulahrendt1766]

She gets me weeping every time. My new favorite artist

[@lindamari8981]

she is absolutely amazing, stunning, unmatched, one get lost for words, it's pure emotion coming from her lips

[@imcharmed93]

Omg this is the style of music I have been looking for but couldn’t find

[@gittegrev]

❤ Love your reaktion to Eivør. ❤ Love Eivør You don't need words, when you can Feel it.

[@ИванСидоренко-т7ф]

It's like she's from another universe 👍

[@damjan4444]

It was really amazing watching such a beautiful, sensitive and passionate man reacts to one of my favourtite artists song. Will you do more reactions to Eivor songs like I tokuni/into the mist, silvitni/surrender, brotin or Verð Mín?

[@63rdwho]

As soon as I saw that you had reacted to this song, I clicled the link immediately. Eivor is incredible, and is the only other artist excepting Aurora whose music really moves me deep inside. Gullspunnin means "Spun in Gold" in English, and I think it speaks of loneliness. All the songs on Eivor's latest album "SEGL" which translates as "SAIL" are beautiful to hear. Thanks for reacting to a masterpiece by this incredible lady.

[@urbankotto9685]

When she sings in her native toungh she REALLY shine.

[@poolhallshark]

Here's the translation of the lyrics, to give you some more insight to the theme : Spun in Gold When I saw the current take you on the calm sea, I lost myself at the core of the silence. Tied to my flesh is the longing, tangled in my mind the expectation. Spun in gold my whole dim soul, glittering alone. If you come back home, make a call on me. Wide open my heart's door, a room for you. Tied to my flesh is the longing, tangled in my mind the expectation. Spun in gold my whole dim soul, glittering alone. I saw the current take you on the calm sea, I lost myself at the core of the silence. If you do return, make a call on me, I wait for you, glittering alone.

[@AdamStraughan]

Thank you! This is incredible

[@Paustian2940]

She is also brilliant singing tròdlabùndin Live on the Faroe Islands. She really brings the spirits from the Viking era out. And the venue….. absolutely beautiful.

[@TheFrecklish]

*trøllabundin 😉 And that specific concert was recorded in Norway not the Faroes☺️

[@ayreon128]

Hi Adam, I am also one of those people who started watching "The Last Kingdom" because of Eivor (and not other way around)! Can't wait to see Eivor live, cant wait to see Season 5 of "The Last Kingdom". Eivor and John Lunn also promised a new music for this new season... No idea what to recommend - I, potentially, could recommend everything starting from the 'Clickhaze' (Eivor's first band, late 90-ies - already, somewhere at the level of The Cranberries) - "Daylight - Clickhaze" - up to the "Segl"!

[@twistychristie3611]

Before I saw the translation of this song, it felt like it took me on a journey... my mind floating free in the wind, to somewhere I’ve always longed to be. Her voice is like the calling of a Siren that releases you from the frames of daily life.

[@MotherofUnicornsProductions]

Love Eivor, apart from Falling Free I love her stripped down version of Rain (just her and a ukulele, I think) and then there's Salt, performed in a train ware house...

[@hafdissigurdardottir3176]

She is just one ☝️ of a kind 👍 Love ❤️ from Iceland 🇮🇸 🦋🦋🦋

[@evelisepereira4849]

Hi from Brazil. Follow her in her KZbin channel. Sometimes she surprise us with a live! 😍

[@kjellbjertns4644]

This is from the stream of the performance i recondemended after your reactions on Falling free. It’s about time😉! You have a lot from that consert to looking forward to👍🏻😊

[@zoonambulo]

Nobody talks about her insane voice in the live version of Boxes in 2012

[@MrTombre]

so many great tracks, her newest single Only love ft Asgeir, Surrender (London solo sessions), Trodlabundin live in a fjord in Norway are a few to pick from

[@katewright2445]

A fan of Eivors is Alexia Evellyn from Brazil. She has the shaman drum, throat singing, loop pedal, goddess sound. Great acoustics in nature and rainforest ruins. Id say there is a good recorder and microphone.

[@styx85]

Astonishing!

[@xbubblehead]

There's so much talent out there and so little time to hear it.

[@blackcountrybeastdesigns7436]

She brings a whole new level when Live . Great reaction 🙏

[@Dunkelheit_Schwarz]

I really hope you will check Trøllabundin and Í Tokuni and other songs :) Nonetheless, thanks for this reaction! Really like how you do it.

[@Dunkelheit_Schwarz]

Btw, she did a live version (from home) of the opening OST to The Land Kingdom. That one will blow your mind!

[@lodellas]

@@Dunkelheit_Schwarz YES! You truly have not heard Eivor until that version. Much love 💕

[@Glenn056]

Thank you so much for reacting to Eivør again! Love her so much, you can feel the raw emotion and passion in her performances, and Gullspunnin means Spun in Gold in Faroese! Another live performance by her I highly recommend reacting to is Surrender kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWavipuEaK6laqc&ab_channel=Eiv%C3%B8r Thanks again!!

[@Accolonian]

I actually hadn't heard that one yet, so I am glad you didn't pause. For other Eivor, listen to Surrender (London solo sessions), Rain (stripped acoustic) and maybe the cover of hounds of love she did. I never thought I would have accepted someone else than Kate Bush singing that song, but she pulls it off. It's a music video,. though.

[@zoeemery2863]

You need to do her Trollabundin- she does a different version each time she performs her. I would recommend her version with Copenhagen Records as it is a different style to this! Just her and her drum and about half way through, she does something else!

[@johnnyrich1]

Well that was a great choice for the second reaction to that amazing voice. You can't go wrong really , though if you pick Trodlabundin where it is just her and a drum on the banks of one of the Norwegian fjords and is just spectacular, it will take you back to your Viking roots.

[@tracylf5409]

Back again. As a fan of Eivor, I have found that the overall reaction to Eivor is a huge exhale at the end of her songs/vids because you'll hold your breath listening and being entranced, and then finally let out your breath. Later, you'll start humming the melodies. Not many have that effect. Eivor is one. xx

[@wolffbites]

we, meaning our vocabulary cannot define the feelings she evokes from the deepest parts of me and it seems all those who hear her. I am 78 and listen to minimum of 60 to 80 hours of music in all genres. NO VOICE CAN MATCH HERS AND NEVER HAS BEEN. NOT EVEN IN OPERA. NEVER. sHE HAS A 7 OCTAVE RANGE WHICH SHE USES TO PERFCTION AND HER SKILL AS A MUSICIAN TELLS HER WHEN TO GO UP AND DOWN AND, SHE TAKES YOU WITH HER EVERY TIME. BEST EVER. WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN AN EXQUISITE MAGICAL GIFT AND LSITEN LISTEN LISTEN.

[@catherinemallard4517]

you should check out the song Slor from her London Solo sessions! I have had the great fortune of seeing her live 6 times now...in Norway, Iceland and Vancouver, and will be seeing her in her upcoming North American tour in Vancouver! There will never be anyone who touches me as deeply as she does! Forever devoted to her!

[@leesilverness4296]

She is amazing. The band is also obviously excellent.

[@halina8369]

Thanks for the magical moment 💕🌷💕 Fantastic reaction and interpretation 👌💯👍

[@MrTombre]

Im definately here for this =)

[@Lemonz1989]

Please more Eivør reactions! 😃 The live version of “Wake Me Up” is insane, especially the high notes there!

[@hendrisi2929]

Can I recommend this live performance. Eivor - Wake Me Up // RTT Her vocal is really great. Thank you.

[@ludipietroarte]

The song is inredible, she is amazing, and you... are sooooooooo nice, soooo transparent. I´m in love of your way to listen to music. I really enjoy watching you feeling the music and several times i choose to hear a new song with you, first. I saw a lot of your video reactions of the one and only "Aurora", and i think it was during this times when i fall in love with you as a special human capable to detect and to feel pleassure with the deep sound of music. thanks just for be simply you. (And i´am sorry about my english because i'm argentinian and i´m using the google translator to verificate what i´m writing you :) and i really don´t know if is the correct way to do it.)

[@AdamStraughan]

Thank you so very much! I understand everything you said perfectly! Thank you!

[@annetteboelovergaard6362]

❤❤❤

[@kentmains7763]

She's a goddess.

[@superbeast7738]

Eivor is so AMAZING!

[@poolhallshark]

So.....it's me again. I'm a bit puzzled when I see how few recommendations on other Eivør pieces I see here. After having been following you for some time, I'm fairly confident you'll love more of her music. So allow me to give you my recommendation on two of my personal favorites by her. The first being "Bridges". Her performance of this during her Torshavn live concert is just beautiful. Her vocal range and control is on full display here. The other one I'd like to recommend is "Mjörkaflókar". This one is EPIC as you would have put it. The whole arrangement and composition is just SO perfect. And again I'd suggest you take a look at her Torshavn live concert for this one. She just SHINES when live. By the way, both of these pieces are totally her own, both the lyrics and the music. She has been collaborating quite a bit with Marjun Syderbø Kjelnæs for lyrics; a famous Faroese author, in some of her songs. Looking forward to your next reaction :-) Take care and have a great week. Regards from a rapidly thawing Norway.

[@h0pesfall]

2:26 I had the same reaction! :) Just discovered her while listening to the God of War OST. Amazing.

[@AdamStraughan]

She is AMAZING on the soundtrack! You should check out the soundtrack to The Last Kingdom too, she’s amazing on it!

[@h0pesfall]

@@AdamStraughan Thanks man. I almost cried at Lívstræðrir :')

[@h0pesfall]

@@AdamStraughan May I suggest you to listen/react to Spiritbox - "Constance" and Sleep Token - "The Love You Want" ? :)

[@AdamStraughan]

@@h0pesfall So I LOVE Constance by Spiritbox! However, I haven't heard The Love You Want from Sleep Token! I'll check it out!

[@h0pesfall]

@@AdamStraughan Yeah Sleep Token are amazing. Very unique voice, I am pretty sure you will love it :)

[@mc.the_machine]

With the English translation, the lyrics are quite incredible. This would probably be amazing in an English version. I've always enjoyed the original, and listening to your review made me look up the lyrics finally. It really is incredible.

[@lightingthedarkremoteviewi8086]

My favorite song from her

[@poolhallshark]

Hehe. While we're at it - That nordic letter (Ø) is pronounced the same way as the e in "her". At this pace you'll become fluid in no time. LOL

[@roabdvarsdottir1278]

You should really react to Eivør - Trøllabundin live! Mind blowingly awesome!😍

[@poolhallshark]

You pronounced Gullspunnin perfectly :-)

[@AdamStraughan]

Haha great to hear!

[@joannesjohannesen8456]

@@AdamStraughan Very close it's pronounced Gudlspunnin. Check out True Love and Boxes the live version, thanks for doing Eivør reactions :)

[@Barcagf]

Antoher great reaction. Just a suggestion: Heilung - Traust is simply amazing. Keep up the good work anyway, best to you :)

[@ryanfulton9940]

You need to listen or react to her live version in the mountains in her native language. Song called trollabundin

[@AdamStraughan]

It’s my next reaction to her ;)

[@littlemouse7066]

Watch the same song live in Manchester 22/10/22 it's magic.

[@tarabradford1848]

You should really check out Eviør’s live recordings from her collaborations with the show The Last Kingdom.

[@yubogolfer4040]

Her art is a deep rabbit hole similar to the huge echoing cave of Aurora. If you listen to one song, three more coming up to get to ... for a long time. my next suggestion would be 'Salt' live at the train warehouse. It's one of my favourite performances of her (out of so many incredible ones). Another recommendation for a new artists on the channel is 'London Grammar'. To be honest, I don't have found the vibe with their newest releases of the upcoming album, yet but their first 2 albums were outstanding and Hannah's voice is remarkable and haunting. Let yourself be enchanted ... try 'Rooting For You' kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKLLmIt3fLVnftE I stronlgy believe you will like it. I also drop the link in the discord for you, Adam.

[@MrDslacker]

Myrkur's recent album "folkesange" is right up your alley (Live version kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmrbeJWna7apr6c) And you could try Sorten Muld : Ravnen (kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHO1pp6HaclqsMU) And an even earlier band, that are one of the first two do this kind of semi-electric neo-folk: Hedningarna - Räven (kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXSrlJivqrCbfK8)

[@AdamStraughan]

Ooooo thanks!

[@gcancino]

If this made you cry... you should listen to the new live video kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKGViaGLhM2Be5o

[@gravellegb]

Eivor belongs in a league with the great female singers of the past such as Patsy Cline, Jo Stafford, Ella Fitzgerald and Karen Carpenter.

[@poolhallshark]

Hello again Adam. I'd love for you to be one of the first (if not the first) reactor to react to Angelina's new single 7th heaven. It's so good, and I believe it tells us a lot of which direction she'll be going as an artist. Have a great day. 🙂

[@kattepai]

Wow she actually looks like Susanne Sundfør. Maybe they are from the same star system😏

Everyone is blown away and they promise more Teddy reviews and then crickets. Not you yet, because you do tend to circle back in time. I was serious but kidding with you too.
