Sissel Kyrkjebø - Imagine - 1993

Sissel Kyrkjebø performing "Imagine" by John Lennon with jazz musician Bendik Hofseth and a children's choir at the annual benefit gala TV-aksjonen on Norwegian Television in 1993.
Sissel, the international singing sensation from Norway, is widely regarded as one of the finest and most talented sopranos in the world. Her crystalclear voice has made Sissel a national institution in Norway. Sissel has sung all over the world, selling over ten million solo albums. She contributed the haunting vocal tracks for the soundtrack to Titanic. She has been doing great duets with singers like Placido Domingo, Andrea Bocelli, Bryn Terfel, Jose Carreras, Russell Watson, Mario Frangoulis, Josh Groban, Neil Sedaka and Charles Aznavour. A very remarkable voice you will only hear once in your lifetime.

Hello greeting from Japan Live songs are singing with innards while stretching individual and beautiful voices Singing skill and vibrato are fond of intonation techniques and I like rhythm and melody (my guideline is one I will do · Direttanto · TS · critic · TS) Including music and movie related technical terms in comments. Mixing · camera division · cinematography technique · beginning tenor The direction of the focus technique of the saxophone is wonderful. It will be a good aside but a nice suit women's color is green · olive green · relief · safety · relax · refresh · peace · Harmony · Cooperativeness · Balance · Heart's truth · Direction · Resolution · Response · Space · Female leadership · All colors have meaning.

Such a beautiful voice singing such an absurd and heterodox song.

The title is Imagine

[@jkelly1a]

@@exentr It's what the Bible calls a dark and vain Luciferian imagination.

[@exentr]

@@jkelly1a It's the devil singing? Is that what you are saying?

[@jkelly1a]

@@exentr What gave you that idea? Of course not. By the way, you wouldn't, by chance, believe in the Biblical depiction of Lucifer, would you?

[@exentr]

@@jkelly1a That's the way I understand what you're saying. You better stick to your bible. You can't go shopping. You can't doubt the words from god. You brought the subject the way you understand. I doubt that you do know the bible. May I ask where in the bible Imagine is a topic. So far you spread hate and boundaries as Sissel sing in Only Love. It's you that represent satan. Nobody else.

[@lloydsavage1520]

Imagine may sound like a good song if you don't analyse it or have a conscience. It really is asking one to ignore God and His Heaven and to sweep under the rug other issues God sees as important. To deny these and hope to just think your can think them away or dream them away is to be in denial of what God says we should be concerned about plus to believe in Him. How or why should we join them the writer of this song? To be and athiest, a blasphemer of the Almighty God is his goal and campaig n. She is a good singer but this song should have been trashed long ago and her not singing it.

[@mikeq5807]

Quite the opposite, it is describing the very essence of God.

Very beautiful melody but fundamentally flawed idealism that knocks nations and religion, which are both fundamental to a sense of identity , social cohesion and the peace that the song dreams of.
