SISSEL KYRKJEBØ - Imagine, from John Lennon - 1991 TV Concert - HQ with Subtitles

[@mjw1942]

The woman of 100 faces, the voice of angels, and the heart of a saint

[@donaldtucker2707]

One if the most outstanding singers in the world.

[@allenjones3130]

Sissel lends her beautiful mezzo-soprano voice to a lovely rendition of one of John Lennon's most endearing songs.

[@michaeltriba1307]

Sissel was very pretty in her 20's, but in my humble opinion, she became more gorgeous in her 30's and 40's, and her voice was even better and more refined. She will turn 50 a month from today, and is still beautiful and has world-class talent. She is a true gift from the Almighty God.

[@robertcarton6670]

But how does she deny the sacrifice of the cross?

[@bjorntorehammerengelstad]

👍

[@johnbaker3016]

Ditto. Getting to see her before she becomes what she is today reminds of what Ann Morrow Lindberg said about the difference between an autobiography, written after we know how things turn out and an autobiography entry in a Diary, similar to hers, is diaries are written before we know how events will turn out. Hence diaries are more honest. Thank to You Tube for their format.

@@robertcarton6670 how did you come by the knowledge ? was is drummed into your scull as child (scull full of mush ) or was it revealed to you later when you had attained free will.....either way.....Gods Grace dwells in her voice regardless of your inappropriate judgement....." judge not lest....." ....listen to her sing "slow down" with that heathen org....the Mormon Tabernacle C&O.....inspired and inspiring

[@hobertlee7598]

So Very True

[@sveingrimstad9151]

I was crazy in love with Sissel Kyrkjebø in the early 90's when I was in my late teens. I saw Heaven in her eyes and her angelic voice. At the same time as she's down to earth and ordinary in some ways, she's also very rare and special, she has such a wonderful charisma and she's beautiful, cute and charming and very smart, caring and kind girl, like an angel. I love her of all my heart and proud to be Norwegian!

[@jpattoncook]

Amen

[@leecowell8165]

She's totally awesome... beautiful in every way that one cares to look. and rare is not even the word. she's mastered so many languages and speaks absolutely perfect English which is not of course, her native language. her linguistic skills alone puts her in class of her own and that's excluding her awesome voice. she sings all of her songs right out of her head how do these people do this? I was watching Tina S play the guitar.. totally different music. however she hits 7 notes per SECOND and can do this for over 6 MINUTES! how can she do this? 60*7*6=2520 notes and its stated she does not miss a SINGLE note. how is that possible? These are extremely rare examples of impossible things made possible by some divine gift that the rest of humanity simply lacks. btw Tina S is only 21 years old as of this posting but has not performed in over 3 years. how? Well the one thing these people have in common is extremely large brains. finally In watching Tina play she doesn't even LOOK at the guitar the vast majority of time.

@@leecowell8165, très juste ce que vous dites ; on peut dire la même chose de la grande chanteuse allemande Hélène FISCHER qui est plus que douée et qui , de l'avis de beaucoup , approche la perfection et la maîtrise de son art ; ces artistes sont des géants dans leur domaine , qui forcent l'admiration

[@leecowell8165]

I don't blame you! she's totally awesome. and she has not changed not one bit. even back here she had an incredible voice. she is truly a gift to the world...

[@yabbadabbadooist]

I am sure John Lennon would love this rendition to his eternal song. I could listen to Sissel for hours singing any genre of music.

[@sveingrimstad9151]

I think John would cry tears of joy in Heaven.

[@TStorms005]

same here

[@dieterledderhose2238]

She is wonderful

[@normanmeharry58]

Her mature voice is almost there. Yet KZbin has all stages of her voice,'s development. Wonderful to behold.

[@michaelrose7608]

Clarity makes this version stand out. And her facial expressions are heavenly. Such hutzpah to sing this in church.

[@jimsoper2321]

Church is the perfect place to sing Imagine. It's also a regular part of the Olympic Ceremonies.

[@CurragaoMattson]

The year Sissel performed this I had the ups and downs as all we have had. Not that many people knew Sissel in Finland then but I did found some ways to listen her with my girlfriend. Some of the best songs came from the radio - and we just loved them all.

[@rayellery7596]

wrote by a genious and sung by a very beautiful lady

[@raycranley]

What a wonderful voice, and Sissel still has it today.

[@albertfryer2225]

A lovely young girl now a beautiful woman unmatchd voice

[@Easternborders]

A phenomenal talent I am glad I have found this Lady on KZbin her voice can melt your heart

[@leecowell8165]

the only one anywhere close to her league was Judith Durham out of Australia. another incredibly humble but awesome singer. however Judith only sang in English. the comparison of these two will amaze you.

[@2psyche1]

@@leecowell8165just hear eva Cassidy. I think she is the best

[@rickrodrigues2219]

Such clarity of voice & beauty of face....I'm in love!

sunday morning and sat listening to this angelic voice makes me feal like I am dreaming

[@freaker126]

her vocals remind me of those singers in the old past.

Outstanding version of this classic song ! The beautiful voice of Sissel

[@henryhorner3182]

Thank you ODIN, for granting us this wonderful lady.

[@maryswisher4564]

Indeed, the most amazing voice ever! Sissel is absolutely stunning in every way; her voice, her interpretation, her expression, her stage presence, her humility! God Bless her and thank Him for her wonderful gift!!

[@paulmccarthy9033]

If John Lennon could have chosen only one person to perform" Imagine," he would have chosen Sissel.

[@constantinosdinos2735]

Tell me about how you asked him

[@editabatan9198]

very expressive eyes, lips, the whole face...splendid!

[@leecowell8165]

And she has maintain that through the years. Her voice has mellowed but its still awesome...

[@rickrodrigues2219]

I was just thinking how her sincerity comes across not only with the words but with her facial & hand expressions. Given the state of the world today this beautiful song is so very appropriate for our time & gives us some hope...but right now we can only "Imagine" what peace would be...

[@paulmccarthy9033]

There is no better vocalist that can bring reality to John Lennon's utopian dream than Sissel.

[@Mmbgfgerrfffg]

What a powerful voice!

[@banjoonmyknee1]

This is the gold standard " Imagine " by which all other versions of " Imagine" fall short. Simply the best.

[@polik185]

one of the great songs of the last century sung by one of the great singers of the last and this century.

[@luodimao8226]

Beautiful woman,beautiful voice and beautiful smile

[@noriemeha]

They could rein back that choir or even ditch it. But this is Faroe Island TV and the local talent had to get an outing, yet Sissel's voice is satisfying enough here. At 21 she had all "her ducks in a row".

[@Provident97]

So beautiful, herself and her voice. First time watching in 2016

[@doublejproductions3853]

She's so wonderful, when I'm down, she brings me up, and angel, voice for sure
