Sissel Kyrkjebø - Going Home - 2007

[@BeverlyM52]

Oh, that voice. Suits this wonderful song perfectly. She’s a favorite.

[@shiannamariestentt]

She's 55 now. Can you believe that?

[@BeverlyM52]

@@shiannamariestentt And still so beautiful. It's neat how a beautiful singer's beautiful voice seems to keep them unchanged in our perspectives.

[@pavelvanasek2896]

The most beautiful version of Largo Novosvětská by Antonín Dvořák. How proud am I?I am a Czech.

[@ianburnley7786]

Im with you on that. Never ever get tired of listening to this.

[@bintibuti]

I was looking for this song when I discovered Sissel and have tried to listen to everything she has ever performed since, but this remains one of my favorites. If I have music at a funeral, this would be it, but I listen to it as I think of my own death and it gives such comfort. Sissel's voice is that of an angel and I will carry it with me.

[@marilynswann5173]

Lucie I have done exactly the same as you, I've told all of my children and grandbabes Nana wants this at her funeral, everyone knows, then I found Sissel ❤ 💙 and this is the beautiful version, this and none other. Amazing 🕊

[@ayzdok]

When I’m listening this song I think the same.

[@NightRrider1212]

My very sentiments.

[@pavelvanasek2896]

It was a favourite of my father. He passed away 3 years ago.

[@larrypatrick1917]

This is the pinnacle of perfection.

[@mikerose3732]

Amen. As is the Gorgeous Sussel ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TLChrist]

As I have contemplated the Brightness and Splendor of Sissel's Life and her Person, I have considered that she is but one small ray of the Divine Splendor. If SHE shines so, how bright and glorious must be the Source of that Light !! 🥰🥰🥰

[@laurencelance586]

My dearest love, it's been a year to the day and nearly to the hour since you went home. A few days from now it will have been one years that in a little Montana cemetery the casket with the most beautiful woman I ever knew was lowered into the earth. Many times I said that I didn't know about "Love at First Sight" but I do know about Love At First Kiss. Our first kiss was on our second date- July 12th, 1968. I miss you so.

[@ivangranger8494]

Laurence Lance ✨✨✨May you always walk with our Lord, ✨and then return to the Soul ✨of your Love, that went home, before you.

[@debr1360]

I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved. I know , though, that you feel comfort in remembering the love you shared.

[@leonardherring2468]

Ivan Granger Beautifully said my brother.

[@leonardherring2468]

Ivan Granger Our Lord is so good to us even those among us who sadly do not believe in Him. He gives us the beautiful voice of Sissel, the art of Leonardo da Vinci, the perfume of a rose, the Beauty of a sunrise and sunset, the joy of a new baby and His son that we may know Him the one true God.

[@charlesbenedetti8607]

Of all the sopranos on KZbin I've listened to, Sissel sings with the smoothest voice of all. She shows no stress and hardly any effort- - - the words and sounds just smoothly leave her vocal chords.

[@gsb1144]

I think I’ve listened to this every day for the past two months and have never tired of listening to the beauty that is Sissel. The best voice I think I’ve ever heard in my 66 years. Angelic puts it too mildly. She is the pinnacle of perfection.

[@annedonnellan6876]

I believe she is deeply spiritual and this transmits to her interpretation of classics

[@debraklingensmith9773]

My Favorite Song The Snake Pit😢 play for me at the end!!!

[@raybaeznoticias5124]

God has given us an Sissel, with a voice like an Angel and phenomenal talents....God bless Sissel.

[@lindywilliams9686]

Very well said.

[@sarahcrowe9730]

What an angelic voice when it is my turn to go home I want this played at my Going Home.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏😇

[@mayradell4901]

You are sooo beautiful Sissel, not only in form but the beauty of your soul, your expression and your spirit is a healing experience. You are unique in your genre of music. Thank you for the peace and kindness that you bring about!!! Infinite blessings and love

[@allenjones3130]

Sissel's rich mezzo-soprano voice and the music and lyrics of this classic ballad are a perfect match.

[@louiismanuel3629]

This is one of the greatest renditions of Dvorak"s work. It perform to a gratifying and mesmerizing height, the like of which I have never seen or heard. Truly Sissel is so warm and comforting as she does the greatest of justice to this song..Wonderful

[@jamesforrest2917]

Just pure magic, a voice of a true angel which Sissel resonates in all her song. Just wonderful and peaceful.

[@elizabethstevenson7100]

One of my very favorite songs performed by Sissel, who has one of the most incredible and beautiful voices I have ever heard in my 83 years.

[@benplante4377]

Without a doubt Sissel is one of the very best.

[@krittikachakraborty8883]

Sissel's voice is something special 🌝🌝

[@davidmcleod7757]

tears in my eyes that was sung so beautifully it was played at my moms funeral

[@IneBraatVIDEOS]

*****Sissel is such a great artist, I admire her with deep respect.

[@norisna]

Just now I discovered this beautiful voice! beautiful!. I don't understand why Celine Dion is more popular! No! for me, and I think for many people Sissel is the best! Wow! what a voice!!!

[@observant98]

Norma Cazangian : Yes, Sissel is a better singer and with a lot less drama than Celine Dion.

[@georgebarr2123]

Beautiful woman and a voice to match ,in love !!!

[@paulgillard2215]

She had the opportunity to go to the states to further her career but declined it . That's also what makes her very special.

[@leecowell8165]

She's not from the states, Norma. However if you listen to her in interviews you would most certainly think so as she speaks absolutely perfect English. Besides her beauty and her magnificent voice she has charisma & is the most expressive artist I've ever known.

[@norisna]

@@leecowell8165 Thank you! for your comment after 2years! Yes ,you are right she is beautiful!

[@ianhaigh4878]

another sissel fan i am sitting here tears streaming down my face just listening to absolute perfection

[@billbuck6076]

She is still the best-the GREATIST BBUCK

[@alanmcneill2407]

This is so beautiful, I literally sobbed with the gravity, the beauty, the memories, the love of those golden days past, days of home and the people that made it home.

[@vrvray4109]

How could anyone dislike this song sung by this beautiful lady, very special

[@AllansStation]

Pity anyone who claims to dislike this beautiful song and singer They are just sad and lonely people

[@mikekissel7543]

She takes my breath every time I hear her sing.

[@suehaws6185]

So beautiful. Very relaxing to listen to. I enjoyed the Melody, the lyrics, and of course Sissel’s beautiful voice

[@Huffdanny-p2n]

Hi Sue hope you're okay?

[@alfspiess9474]

Ich kann machen, was ich will! Wenn ich dieses Lied mit dieser "herausragenden" Stimme höre, bekomme ich Gänsehaut! Großen Respekt!

[@larryhamsing4140]

Beautiful voice and beautiful woman.

[@TStorms005]

This lady has a voice that just will not quit! Love it!!!

[@markharrison5321]

Wow. I love Dvorak's Largo. It is unique in classical music in that it projects visuals. Fisher's lyrics just add so much more depth and emotion. Sissel's performance is incredible.

[@alicelong1165]

Most beautiful voice! Clear as a bell!

[@spikespa5208]

No overwhelming vibrato. Just pure note holding. Powerful voice, brilliantly controlled.

[@dawngill6506]

84 years old, just found my favourite singer.

[@ojshilinski8358]

So tender and beautiful - thank you . . .

[@ianburnley7786]

Her voice is just velvet

[@TStorms005]

What a perfect beautiful voice this is! Love it!!!!!!

[@trevorglasper2084]

Stunning

[@raybaeznoticias5124]

God has given the world and Angel 😇 with sublimes in her voice...!!! Thank You God for Sossel...!

[@louiismanuel3629]

I continue to absorb and infiltrate the totality of this gifted lady. she portrays warmth and a power, that pleasantly mesmerizes the soul of this being.........Thank you Sissel

[@chokeonjesus4510]

louiis manuel the song has a whole diffrent desspressing meaning

[@sonnyreidhead9934]

louiis manuel )

[@TLChrist]

When I listen to this selection -- the haunting, ethereal quality of her voice and singing, and the almost other-worldly beauty and expression of her face -- something rises up within my heart and spirit. It is a combination of joy-longing-aching --- that brings both a joyfulness to my heart and tears to my eyes at the same time. SURELY the Spirit of God moves through this beautiful vessel of His Beauty, Joy and Love !!

[@tobyjoey1]

One of my all time favourite singers!!!! Sissel knows the deeper meaning to this song, ie; discovering your true self, and that is reflected in her performance. Pure joy, bliss, whatever that means to you. Thank you sisselfan.

[@wombatone5577]

One of my favourites, very moving and up lifting. Thank you.

[@ianmacdonald4477]

told family i would like this played at my funeral ,whenever that may be

[@AK-sm3kp]

😭😭😭😭 So beautiful!! I watched The Snake Pit yesterday and that melancholy song has been running through my head and heart.

[@billfortune5298]

Sissel performed "Going Home" with perfection

[@ianburnley7786]

Listening again, I love her voice, and reminds me of stories my grandad told me of his mates in the Great War

[@jeanhalls3184]

I love her voice as clear as a bell! Efforless!👏

[@Huffdanny-p2n]

Hi Jean hope you're okay?

[@mosessofer3447]

beautiful, adorable Sissel sings just like the beautiful angel that she is

[@leehucktee7888]

We must also thank all the wonderful and gifted musicians.

[@SeagoddessOne]

Lee Huck Tee we played it yesterday at my mother’s funeral in Church

[@annminnema6351]

Lovely Sissel!!!

[@prestongarrison8964]

Sissel is just the best.

[@richardallison8023]

I love playing this tune on my bagpipes...have for years. In all that time I've never taken a moment to dig into the words to the song!

[@redbaron1952]

Quando tornerò a casa anch'io, ascolterò la tua voce Sissel. (When I go home again, I'll listen to your Sissel voice.)

[@briancallanglancy8032]

beautiful and so lovely

[@trevorsmaurice]

This is the BEST version I've heard on KZbin so far of 'Goin Home'. It's a little bit too 'folksy' BUT it is both reverential and solemn. She needs to smile less and it would be almost perfect 👍

[@davidhubbell4980]

Absolutely beautiful. Heavenly.

[@rosairedubrule60]

Another master piece

[@jelleuijtdeboogaardt7755]

What a Powerful Voice!

[@StevenTorrey]

THE LYRICS ARE SIMPLICITY ITSELF! Going home, going home I'm just going home Quiet light, some still day I'm just going home It's not far, just close by Through an open door Work all done, care laid by Going to fear no more Mother's there expecting me Father's waiting, too Lots of folk gathered there All the friends I knew All the friends I knew I'm going home Nothing's lost, all's gain No more fret nor pain No more stumbling on the way No more longing for the day Going to roam no more Morning star lights the way Restless dream all done Shadows gone, break of day Real life begun There's no break, there's no end Just a living on Wide awake with a smile Going on and on Going home, going home I'm just going home It's not far, just close by Through an open door I am going home I'm just going home Going home, going home

[@eurodanceheaven2143]

Simply the best.

[@sashika6053]

I love it! It’s pretty, calm, slightly bright, and slightly sad!

[@blackscorpione]

wonderful song!!!!!

[@tiechen1543]

So beautiful.

[@orderdispatched2660]

I would want this to be sung at my funeral

[@ianburnley7786]

God i love her voice, thank you.

[@daviddonaldson7430]

This was wounderfully soothing

[@JROrg2009]

The base music is from Dvořák Symphony No 9 "New World" Largo. It's been played also in quite a few movies, some science fiction, some drama movies as well, and in British and other advertisements. It is unusual to some to hear lyrics being placed to it, yet it is superbly done by the lyricist and by Sissel and her beautiful voice.

[@PL73LC1]

Lovely presentation. Thank you e.conboy

[@CSavageSr]

I can not cry this much.

[@michaeljordan3422]

Ur Not Only Beautiful Stunning But U Have A Beautiful Stunning Voice To Match Love You Princess XX

Don't go home any time soon Sissel, unless we can hear your glorious voice in heaven!

[@angeliquenomade4353]

Angel voice ... Beautiful

[@60peterson]

Soo haunting!! Beautifully performed.

[@albert2142]

C'est très beau !! Merci 💌

[@TLChrist]

As the song implies, "This life is but a dream - Going HOME - REAL life has just begun". Interesting - "Going Home" suggests that we had been there before - somewhere left, somewhere lost - returning BACK again !! Jesus Christ calls out to us, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened (and weighted down with the cares and burdens of this world), and I will give you rest. Take my yoke on you and learn from me because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and my load is not hard to carry." 🥰🥰🥰

[@timothyrea4757]

About as lovely as it gets!!

[@gekn111]

Love her singing

[@shubham3301]

I just found an angel 😍

[@pammorris8097]

I want this played at my funeral.

[@anthonyyates2309]

A voice quite like Julie Andrews. Very clear and precise.

[@akioudshoorn3144]

Zo mooi❤

[@marcelobussacos338]

A cantora mais completa que já conheci, além de belíssima e completa profissionalmente .

[@TheShamwari]

Amazing how women can have such a variety of tone to their voices - ranging from say from opera to this and others like Judy Page of S African in the sixties an sventies,

[@timothyrea4757]

Which is more lovely? Her voice, or her smile, or those dazzling eyes??

[@alansimmons1950]

Beautiful

[@user-wf6qb3gi7n]

Hope you didn’t mind I couldn’t resist it❤

[@margebijsters8472]

Angelic voice beautiful

[@luisfilipe1603]

From my old eyes, almost everything and sodium chloride springs water. This voice is above any adjective🇵🇹🕊️

[@lifelover515]

You can feel the joy in her face as she sings - and oh my, how this lady sings.

[@TStorms005]
