Love her

[@renoirmedical6412]

One of the things I really love about Sissel is that she just sings. No pyrotechnics, no extra effects, etc. She just lets us enjoy her lovely voice. And she is always a lady, conducts herself with decorum and self-respect. You don't see that a lot of that these days, so I appreciate Sissel's sweetness doubly so.

[@glenmcgregor3366]

A very special lady. One you never forget.

[@СветланаГугуева-м7щ]

I'm agree with you.

[@juathimlim4236]

I love Sissel Krykjebo very much and as you said No pyrotechnics No extra effect, she just sings and sings and I repeatedly listen her songs especially the Solveig’s Song. And “Climb Every Mountain” but most of her vocalisation of “Titanic Suite”.

[@lindaberg1695]

I agree!! She just sings without any of the trappings so many singers use these days. No over exaggerated facial expressions, no hopping around the stage, no pyrotechnics...Just pure angelic singing....In many ways Art Garfunkle is the same. Talent always shines through and this is talent in it's purest form. ♥

[@chirok5789]

Как Вы правы!!!

[@johnbattles1002]

She stands there, like a classic Grecian goddess, like Aphrodite herself. Then, she opens her mouth, and with her mesmerizing voice, her penetrating eyes, her magical smile, she brings herself, and the rest of us, to life! Perfection!

[@trondr4009]

Just perfection💖

[@justanoldenglishman9194]

Sissel is truly amazing, I can't get enough of her music.

[@milohazeldine8615]

A younger Sissel, looking "stunning"... But... many years later, everything about this "beauty" has matured in an "enchanting" way. In my eyes, she is a "delight". Her voice and her choice of songs, is something else! A recent discovery for me, which I am enjoying so much, during these troubling days!

Too true Milo

[@timothyrea4757]

"Stunning" Just About Does It. !!!!!!.

[@leecowell8165]

I've been listening to her for over 30 years. There's only one other in her class and she's an Australian, Judith Durham that you probably have never heard of. Why? Because like Sissel she is totally humble and does not seek the limelight. Sissel is better known simply because she visits the states on rare occasion and sings in so many different languages (15 in fact). Ironically though although she's Norwegian she speaks perfect English with an American (rather than British) dialect. Another singer I like is Charlotte Church but you can definitely tell that she is British!

[@chokijamtsho7996]

Well, I just discovered her today only 😢

[@eduardosouza2593]

If angels can sing, they surely learned from her. Thank you, Sissel, for making my life happier.

[@caddis0300]

I too have recently found Sissel and her most beautiful voice. I listen something of her voice now almost everyday.

[@milohazeldine8615]

What a beauty! And not a tattoo in sight!

[@johntrotter8549]

I have never heard such crystal clarity in any voice.

[@bradstevenson5413]

Might i suggest listening to Judith Durham. Her version with the Seekers singing Silent Night would be a good starting point.

[@lisbetsoda4874]

Her voice is something else. - it sounds Angelic

[@ldyoung7938]

What a lady! What a voice!

[@margaretmaher8146]

Pure magic - the voice of the angels.

[@iceberghelen]

Her voice is considered the best one in the world!!! From 1-10 she's very close to 10,I give her a 9.7!!! Other highest singers a 9 but she defeated anyone!

[@milohazeldine8615]

Such a beautiful face matching her perfect, wonderful voice! What a pleasure listening to her!

[@evandermcmillan9726]

Yes.

[@myrajones1428]

never heard of this lady before what a lovely voice, I've been missing out 😊

[@leecowell8165]

sure have...

[@Joohnny_C]

She is considered to be one of the best sopranos in the world.

[@sac1303]

As always, Sissel never disappoints. Great voice.

[@andreakaiser8168]

At 63, I am taking voice lessons and I so endeavor to match her tone. The video is great practice. How beautiful!

[@kamyashrivastava7341]

She's beautiful. The Lord Christ bless her, He who raises everyone up! At 2:47 she may be looking up at the audience and smiling serenely but it looks like she's looking up at the Lord lovingly and thanking Him for what He is, during the rendition of a song so fitting, so joyous and glorious.

[@mikeq5807]

You have a vivid and hallucinatory imagination.

[@williammorrison7464]

Stssel is undoubtedly pefection personified in all ways!

[@mutualbeard]

What a voice!

[@paulconrad8150]

All of us who listen to this lady sing are incredibly fortunate to have her performing for us. Bless you, Lady!

[@johnholliday5874]

The embodiment of loveliness.

[@lindamartineau9214]

I worship the ground she walks on - I just listen to her sing "You Raise Me Up" and she has raised me up so high that I don't think I'll ever come down - I don't want to come down. I think I would die if I ever saw her live - what an incredible beautiful voice and to think she has chosen to share it with the world. May God bless her.

[@noriemeha]

Linda, I saw her in concert this April. I waited for an hour afterwards in the cold in the hope of meeting with her. My prayer was answered. She was getting into her car and saw me standing there alone and she said, 'Hi'. I said her name and blurted how far I come to see her. She left her car and came to me, saying I was mad to come so far and not understand much of what she said in the concert. I had 5 minutes with her. She was so gracious and easy to talk with. She is what she appears to be: a good soul. Her presence is extraordinary.

[@oldronald6560]

Sissel’s performance of this song is my favorite. The main reason is that her voice is absolutely beautiful to listen to. Also important, to me, is that she does not increase the volume on the high notes.

[@victorschmidlin3577]

So beautiful, both Sissel and your voice

[@oscarjbautista8959]

I have loved her for over 20 years, since her voice touched my heart and life. 20, 30 more will not be enough. #Perfecta

[@jennyricketts190]

All families should be like this! 😂 What a happy way to start my day 🕺💃 Love y'all ❤️

[@BjørgStrandHagen]

Noe som jeg liker med Sissel Kyrkjebø, at ho er kjærligheten ho sprer når ho syng til publikum 🌺🌹

[@dubs3400]

Beautifully performed and song. I never tire from listening to her sing.

[@brianbrino4310]

You killed my heart with joy and happiness with this song! You take me to paradise with your lovely voice! I love all your songs because you make them all so beautiful! Thank you for sharing these lovely songs! 🙏🙏🙏🍀🍀🍀🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@samjones6347]

I found this supreme singer by accident on utube..and I am so happy that I did?.wonderful

[@lyndiswebb8913]

Metoo and what a wonderful experience!

[@catherinemcdonald3063]

Me too. Her voice came from my phone in March 2021. Still don't know how. I was not looking for anyone/anything. Thank you God for letting me hear Sissel. I hear her every day now.

[@TAO495]

Listening to her singing is a most soothing thing!! At some parts of the song I wonder how in the world she can get to those high notes and she gets there effortlessly. Amazing!! Thanks, Miss Sissel.

[@jerrodsdad]

Beautiful voice along with a beautiful face: Why did it take so long for me to find her videos.

[@vincegildone7070]

This is the voice of an angel

[@normanhursthouse71]

Love the song and her voice, Magic.

[@johnbaker3016]

Thought you'd never ask. Just had my last birthday in my seventies. Looking forward to having same in my eighties. She remains one of the joys of KZbin.

[@mikefrederick3810]

Her voice is like honey rolling over me, and her appearance, simply gorgeous.

[@lnl3237]

Pretty rabid Linda Ronstadt fan, and just last week, a commenter said to check out Sissel Kyrkjebo if you like Linda Ronstadt. So glad I did! Ms. Kyrkjebo seems to sing effortlessly and with a voice that is beautiful in tone and finely controlled. So grateful to KZbinrs who take the time to introduce others to such wonderful artists.

[@maryhart3929]

I came from that same Ronstadt vid I bet (High sierra), and the person was right, this woman has an amazing voice.

[@lnl3237]

@@maryhart3929 Ms. Ronstadt is not only a singer for the ages, but a musical scholar and preservationist. She has led me to songwriters, musicians, and other singers that would've remained hidden to me. Between her and kind commenters, I have been provided so much rich entertainment to engage my mind and heart during this dispiriting time. I see I am not alone in e enjoying such fine talent.

[@johnbattles1002]

Another one to check out is Angelina Jordan, also from Norway like Sissel. Beautiful, angelic, effortless voice! She's been singing since she could walk (literally!), won Norway's Got Talent at age 8. She's covered about 130 songs, many of them are the old classics (her favorite genre is jazz), and has written/sung 3 originals of her own when she was 11 & 12 which are simply outstanding. She just signed a recording deal with Republic Records in August at age 14. She's an amazing prodigy, beautiful and tall now (like Sissel), poised, graceful, charming, big-hearted, evokes soulful emotion, fearless in her stage presence (even as a child), loving and compassionate, very grounded in her family relations and commitment, a musical genius. The things I've written sound exaggerated, but if you check her out, you will see they are not. Like wonderful Sissel, she is going to soon be the next musical inspiration to a world that has lost its way in knowing, understanding, and appreciating what beautiful music really is.

[@lnl3237]

@@johnbattles1002 John, I know her! And you didn't exaggerate in the least. So glad you reminded me, though, as I have not listened to her in a while and need to revisit her performances. If she needs a publicist, you would be an excellent choice! Thank you for taking the time to give me your impressions of this unique talent. I hope she will be surrounded by good, honorable people who will protect her interests as she sings her way into adulthood. Wouldn't we all be better off if we regularly watched musical programming in the evenings instead of cable news? All the best to you, John.
