SIGRID - Dynamite reaction with Mike & Ginger

[@elsemargrethetnder883]

Some years ago I saw a Graham Norton show and there was this girl singing a catchy song. I had no clue who she was. With almost no makeup, t-shirt tucked down her jeans, I thought she had resurrected from the 70’s. Wait, what? Sigrid? Her name is Sigrid? And then it dawned on me that this “time traveler” had to be Norwegian and I got so proud and still is. She’s so talented! Have you heard Strangers or Don’t kill my vibe? I used to sing along but when my dog packed his food bowl, blanket and favourite toy I knew I had to shut up.

[@MikeandGinger]

Haha! My kids feel the same way about my singing- G

[@ChipMatthews]

Her performance of Home to You (Lindmo 2020) is really lovely too. She writes pop songs with some ridiculously catchy hooks. Sucker Punch and Don't Kill My Vibe are two great examples. There's just something about how female Norwegian singers shape their vowels when singing in English that makes them sound so unique and endearing.

[@Nexus8VK]

Some of her inspirations are Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, and... Adele. “Sigrid’s vocals had a distinctive natural rasp, but a voice coach encouraged her to embrace it rather than soften it.” Props to her voice coach, it really does add a lot to her music. Thanks for the reaction! Sigrid has numerous great songs, including a few rap covers! :)

You made someones day today! And I'll tell you, if you had reacted to the acoustic version of this little pearl of hers, you would have herd more of that lovely "rasp" in her voice. If Aurora is "the Fairy" Sigrid is the "living-next-door, down-to-earth" Norwegian singer and songwriter who just want to be "Basic" (Live performance) Vevo . Born in 1996 just like Aurora. Her first single came out in 2014. It was called "Known You Forever" ( live at Ocean Sound studio ). Her international break through came 2017 with "Don't Kill My Vibe" ( Acoustic ).Yepp acoustic again to be able to hear the "raspiness" in her voice but also for her cool attitude in this version.

[@panchiolarranaga1616]

Watch her 2019 ( I think it was) live performance in the Nashville TN House Of Blues and she nails it, crowd went wild. She is young, down to Earth a beautiful and sweet Norwegian, as Aurora, she's also 24.....awesome, really talented girl.

[@DamonBowles]

Love Sigrid as a performer. So much great content to choose from. As someone has commented, check out the acoustic/piano version of Dynamite. Also, her video for Strangers, which really captures her unique authenticity.

[@rockape1954]

must be something in the Norwegian water... I keep hearing good voices from there.

[@sarlina1]

Oh guys, I love that you reacted to Sigrid. She is fantastic. The song is amazing. Her voice is so soothing, I love every sound of it. Thank you, guys, you are fun as always 👍

[@thunderbird7780]

Fun fact: The blonde woman at the end is Her Royal Highness The Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway.

[@egiljohnsen6145]

Thank you for this great reaction to the second of the 96 trilogy of these great girls (the first is Aurora, then Sigrid and the last is Astrid S). All born in 1996. All this girls have their unique style, are dangerously charming and down to earth. Everyone is also best live.

[@robgerhardterellen1488]

Beautiful easy listening sound walking through the mountains.

[@Fuxser]

Thanks for checking out my suggestion! Glad you enjoyed it :D

[@musicisfeelings6150]

Hi, Mike and Ginger, thanks for visiting Sigrid. Her pop-music is a kind of different from the mainstream and sometimes it needs several listenings. Your respectful listening is beautiful. Sigrid (24-25) won the BBC sound of 2018. Other winners from the past: Adele, 50 cent, Sam Smith, Ellie Goulding... She is the first artist outside UK and America to win the award. Her songs can be vulnerable and an explosion of feelings. Her concerts are known for «feeling good vibes» and energy on the stage. Her music is empowering, and she is just herself….in jeans everytime! Recommand Live on stage at BBC Radio 1 Big weekend 2019- feeling good vibes😊 This is why crowds loves her!

[@anirenka]

Thank you so much for reacting to this incredibly beautiful performance 🤩🥰🥰

[@bazkeen]

Really beautiful. Loved it. More, more, more 😁😁😁😁

[@britthelenbakken819]

I heard that Adele is the reason why Sigrid wanted to be an artist. By the way Ginger, your haircolor is so beautiful. 💖

[@MikeandGinger]

Thank you, Britt ❤️ - G

[@eriktorp1908]

🙋‍♂️ Thx again ! This was a killer live performance , but I think you would love the Official accoustic version also. I can see other comments about checking out Ina Wroldsen or perhaps Dagny. Somebody accoustic with Dagny is 👍

[@tmsvanes]

Brilliant. Nice reaction as always. Love Sigrid. Try "Sucker Punch" live at P3. Lovely pictures and sound - and Sigrid 's on fire...

[@panchiolarranaga1616]

This beautiful child is Aurora Asknes' friend.....as you can see there are great artists in Norway Sigrid Raabe is a favorite, please do some more Sigrid reactions

[@runejenssen5110]

our real princess is sigrid,she was stopped by cov 19 from travelling in consert all over europe,she is greater on stage,very popular in irland,uk,her big hit is strangers,write all her songs,underrated,but she will soon be back on stage,her first song dont kill my vibe,great react

[@X_ch4ng3]

Sigrid has an amazing live vocal just as Aurora 🙂 Sigrid was the winner of BBC sound of 2018. Other winners are Adele, 50 cent, Ellie Goulding, Sam Smith and many more. Sigrid is the first winner that is not from either the UK or America. The winners are voted by people in the music industry, on who they feel is the next big artist that year.

[@yubogolfer4040]

Nobel ... Dynamite ... nice wordplay :)

[@th5841]

What a song to sing in hounour of the inventor of... dynamite.

[@styx85]

Ha! Good observation 😂

[@joaothiagooo0]

Sigrid is friend Aurora!

[@RunarNyrud]

Sigrid is GREAT! I love her "girl next door" look. Normally on stage there is t-shirt&jeans...... The best performances, for me, is just her and the piano... is it perfect? Maybe not? A vocal teacher has to tell me, sounds perfect to me... and than again: what is perfect? Did Leonard Cohen have a perfect voice? Do I love his songs: of yes... Here are a few suggestions: Concert from her parents house - at her mother's birthday !!, camera (phone) on some boxes, her + piano = wonderful ! 3 songs: Sucker Punch, Basic (request from her mother, starts at 06;00) and Home to You (starts at 10;30) - you will also hear AND SEE what "Home to you" is about.. ! I think Home to you will be the best choice. kzbin.info/www/bejne/opepeaJon7qbg6c Sigrid at Paste Studio NYC live from The Manhattan Center, with her keybordplayer Martin, and Christina (AMAZING backup singer...). 3 songs: High Five, Raw og Strangers (timestamp in main comment of the video). I think Raw is the best choice of these 3. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqWYqpp6mt10eas

[@siriosstar4789]

She may remind you of Adele because of the phrasing and pronunciation of certain words . this was pointed out by a voice coach . sorry i don't remember who it was but the explanation was spot on .

[@lailajensen8012]

Hey! Welcome back to Norway😊 And thanks for another nice reaction. Been following you for a year now.I have tried many times to suggest a really good norwegian sing/songwriter named Ina Wroldsen. But maybe you have to be a patron to be heard? But if you hear me this time, pleace react to this beautiful performance of an artist who deserves a lot more attention than she gets! She wrote this song after wisiting a hospital in Rwanda. She went there with a norwegian organisation called "Plan" that helps children all over the world. On this hospital she met a little boy named Peter and his mum. It is a powerfull song about that meeting. She also have a nice live performance of her song "Strongest"(Live from Spellemann) I would recomend you to listen to. Something tells me that you would love these songs Ginger? So come on folks! Listen to yet another norwegian female artist and you soon get an invitation to be a norwegian viking 😉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqDOZX9_fsuDmqM

[@MikeandGinger]

Unfortunately, Laila, the link you provided comes back saying the video is not available in our country. Maybe that’s why she’s been overlooked in the past. Copyright rules on YT can often be very frustrating- G

[@dalewyatt1321]

Why does everyone have to be compared? "Who does she remind you of?" Just let them be themselves, they are individual artists but you keep looking for a comparison.

[@elsemargrethetnder883]

To remind of someone isn’t the same as being compared

[@tmsvanes]

@@elsemargrethetnder883 Quite right!

[@taccamine8312]

She is a big fan of Adele. And especially Dynamite has often been mentioned as a sort of homage to Adele's style.

[@Jimbridge74]

My Girls love Sigrid... countless tik-tok skits to her songs... its weird that she's 21... she looks 12!

[@dansegelov305]

If Stevie Nicks and Adele had a lovechild and Joni Mitchell was her Au Pair.

[@showmannen99]

Madrugada with majesty live

[@donepearce]

OK, who picked up on the relevance of the "dynamite" song? It was Nobel's guilt over the invention of dynamite that caused him to create his peace prize.

[@cf4gunners]

If you want to go on a new norwegian adventure, check out "Kaizers Orchestra - Kontroll på kontinentet Live @ Vega". Its an alternative rock band from Norway. I can guarantee that you have not heard anything like it.

[@annebritraaen2237]

The blonde woman applauding, is our crown-princess- she isn't quite like the others- either- being a single mom with a history of drug abuse.

[@PittDaddy]

I also hear the Adele vibes. Isn't it amazing how all these artists can speak and sing in English so so well? What a difference from singers from this side of the pond. I don't think you ever reacted to a singer named Lara Fabian. She is originally from Quebec and sings in French. Her song, Je Suis Malade is just incredible. If you haven't already done so, I would highly recommend her!

[@MikeandGinger]

We did that one. I took it down because her fans did not appreciate our humour and I got tired of the insulting comments. She was great, and I’d love to do more, but I’m not eager to wade in with a fan base that makes me walk on eggshells. - G

[@PittDaddy]

oh man.. that sucks. Such a shame. There are always trolls if you don't say exactly what they want to hear.

[@MikeandGinger]

@@PittDaddy in all fairness, our humour can sometimes be a little flippant. But it’s never meant to be rude or insulting. Some people just take their music way too seriously. We listen to it, to enjoy it. Not as a moral measure against others. - G

[@PittDaddy]

@@MikeandGinger But that's part of what we love about you guys!

[@ysteindrge8394]

She has a new song out! Try Mirror!

[@EasyModeFishing]

Do Inflikted by Cavalera Conspiracy. They’re Brazilian

[@svglump]

You guys should check out Emilie Nicolas - Feel Fine, the P3 session

[@dansegelov305]

What the hell has been going on in Norway over the last 20-30 years?! Have they been secretly genetically engineering incredible female artists while the rest of us were distracted? Sigrid, Aurora, Iris, Angelina, Susanne Sundfor, Ane Brun, Astrid S, Anna of the north. What's happening?

[@steinbjermeland724]

Eva Casidy :)

[@4211234]

i sometimes step by this channel, and you are always covering norwegian artists, is there a reason to that? love it as im from norway

[@jackslater6182]

they have almost 500 videos on their channel, and maybe 20-25 reactions to Norwegian artists? so I dunno about always, but it might seem that way if they’re enjoying a particular artist/band...like Kalandra, and uploading several reactions in a short time frame. I usually see people reacting to Angelina Jordan and Aurora, and then starting to discover other talented Norwegian artists. which is great, word of mouth at its best. 😀

[@MikeandGinger]

So far, we’ve come across many Norwegian artists we love. We go with what we like. But there’s also plenty from Indonesia, Germany, The Philippines, and Australia, too.

[@jorkasvupp8674]

She reminds me of Feist

[@ehlysium4056]

[@Megacosms]

What a beautiful performance and voice wow! Also, could you please react to "And So Is Love" by Kate Bush. Thank you much love

[@rafaeldejesus8158]

I love this channel , please could you react Florence and the Machine it’s one of my favourite band
