Savage Rose - A girl I knew

[@DrawsACircle]

The drummer, Alex Riel, passed away yesterday morning, June 9th. 2024. Thank you for what you and Savage Rose created, music that lives forever.

[@michaelcraig9449]

Wow what a strange co- incidence I just heard this now on June 11 2024. What is the singer Annisette doing now? Is she still singing in a band? Where is this band from anyone know?

[@DrawsACircle]

She’s still going strong @@michaelcraig9449, playing concerts. She turned 75 in August last year. Savage Rose is a Danish band, I don’t know if you can see it, do a search for “Rebel for livet”, it’s a documentary about Savage Rose made by Denmarks Radio (television). It might not be available outside Denmark/with subtitles.

​@@michaelcraig9449Hey Michael. The band is Danish, though I seem to recall Thomas and Annisette living abroad for many years. I also seem to recall her moving back to Denmark after his death, as she resides here now. She's still very much active not only with her band and music, but also with her activism, which includes solidarity concerts to bring awareness to the plight of oppressed peoples, as well as to other global issues such as global warming or war. If there is a protest going on in Copenhagen against some sort of obvious injustice, you'll find her there. She's one of those people where personally, I think she'll be marching for peace and in solidarity until she drops dead... and that is a glorious thing!

I have loved this since I first heard it in 1969. It still sends shivers up and down my spine!

[@thunderstar8396]

Hørte det her nummer for første gang i dag, hold nu op en lækker energi 🌻

[@WOLFSLAST]

I saw them in August 1968 during my holidays on the island of Bornholm at the age of 16. It was a wonderful concert and the warm up band Moneymakers was also great. I never forget this exciting evening with Savage Rose (I still have the newspaper cut with the report on that evening saying "Anisette - en vild rose")

[@nilosag6804]

Fantastic! Wow, what a vokal! And Koppel’s sound on the piano. He was a damn great composer!

[@RojasRonis]

For me this one is in TOP 5 from year 1968. Great tune!

[@christofferlunoe1305]

Just super.....best Danish singer ever !

[@mary-annnstednielsen5300]

So strong and beautiful 🙏🏻

[@Nhanenge]

I was young then, and gosh did I love that singing. I even cut my hair like her :) I still like that singing.

[@valeurfoto]

Min første LP var Savage Roses "Travelin'", min første "rigtige" koncertoplevelse var med Savage Rose i Virumhallen i februar 1969, og jeg har stadig den efterfølgende koncertomtale i Virumposten med billeder....

[@LiveOfDance]

Marvelous voice

[@conanhayle]

the bass is stunning ,this guy is a genius

Agree! Also love Koppel’s sound on the piano. He was a great composer!

I only have heard one lp in 1971 0n gregar label..it was phenomenal ..about the time I heard the first carmen lp...fandangos in spave!!. Killer stuff..Thanks

[@xiropigado]

This is so good, it just oozes class. So good that it wouldn't be out of place in a James Bond movie. Fantastic band.

[@franzfakta5996]

how absolutely fucking iconic

[@petergromlich6529]

Haunting.

[@philmurphy995]

Amazing vocals -- Annsette. Just great.....like a combo of better Janis Joplin and Grace Sick combined.....truly extordinary!

[@hannemgelvang8461]

and the only reason she didnt make the headlines and the big scenes was/is she is true to herselve- and she doesnt compromise for money

[@Stefanio64]

You nailed it!

[@mary-annnstednielsen5300]

So heartbreaking, but a normal situation for us 50 and 60 generation woman

[@littlebritain64]

Great music! For the ones who love this kind of voice and music I would suggest the 2 records from early 70s recorded by the italian band "Circus 2000". Sung in english, You will live them as well.

[@misser555]

Great Video 📹 I love savage rose 🌹 thy are so good I love there Music 🎶 I got the most music 🎶 they have made on my new smartphone 📱 Xperia z1Compact.

[@jimjankowski6397]

Super cool...Sounds like the intro to a James Bond movie starring Sean Connery. And I mean that in the most complimentary way. Such pipes!

[@Claude1Rochon]

thank you Jim ! i've been racking my brains and distant musical memories for a link...You are just about correct here. It definitely ressembles You Only Live Twice. But her's is much more subtle. Still have a strange feeling she borrowed the couplets' melody from some Serge Gainsbourg song. He was famous for meandering minor mode melodies charged with quizzical lyrics. Anyway....i'm still hunting. The other one melody that still haunts me is Evening's Child. ( Imagine ! even Robert Christgau couldn't trace those two songs to their roots ) Cheers !

Sometimes I feel sorry for the english speaking world for the lack of knowledge in terms of art coming from otter countries. This is an exellent example. World class Music!!

[@toodie535]

feeling the same way. 2023 NPR Tiny Desk Concert of the year goes to a group that clearly was influenced by Kpop of the last 10 years, but the judges claimed to have "never heard anything like this!" what??!!

The Savage Rose actually gained some popularity in the States in the 60s, however, I seem to recall learning that they became ostracized for their very obvious anti war statements at the time, limiting their progression there. The US wasn't ready for them then, aren't ready for them now, and by the looks of things, probably won't be for the next 200 years!

[@Jkrshoe]

I saw these guys live in 2019. 'twas a fine concert, but I forgot my comb. My sincere apologies for not speaking Danish.

What is the song about?

[@zyrrhos]

About a girl I knew.

such a great song... here's a finnish take on it: v=VimMpa-UuS8

[@johnnyandersen9209]

Annisette Koppel was ond of the best vocals.

[@carmelitaolsen5672]

Why is that girl sittng there?

[@MichaelLund]

Ilse Maria Koppel was Thomas Koppels girlfriend and member of the early Band and played harpsicord. She looks sad maybe because she could see somethibg was happening between Thomas and Singer Annisette.

[@fb7984]

@@MichaelLund Actually, Ilse Maria was Thomas Koppel's wife at the time.
