30 years ago one retired & found a space in which to follow his innermost desires. Taking a year of solitude to slow down, in a sense to "zero," he was able to shake off "civilization" & restart his life. This has ultimately led to a point where much of his focus is on the Eternal & a reaching for this destination by way, to a significant degree, of Sissel's song.

Sissel and her usual wise words!!! She also once taught us: "Remember to love while you dare to do it"; "Remember to live while you do it". Thanks so much Sissel!!! God bless you!!!

2019 performance -- This was not JUST a "performance". It was a ministration by God - with His Spirit working through a yielded vessel who was pleased to allow Him to use the tremendous, other-worldly gift and talent that she was given so that God might express His Love and Peace to a hurting, broken world !! Listen to her voice - perfect in tone, pitch and cadence - drawing you into that STILL, quite place. Look at her face - the embodiment of peace, calm, love and joy. See how she uses her body-language and the gestures of her hands to calm, soothe and direct. Throughout the song, but especially at the end with her hands folded over her heart in prayer - she is transcended into the song and into the presence of God, beckoning all who are there to come join her. God is beckoning to ALL who will hear, "Come, be still before me, find the peace that you yearn for, and KNOW that I am God!!" This "Spiritual Journey" was NOT lost on the orchestra, choir or the audience in attendance. They may not have known EXACTLY what it was that they had just experienced, but they DEFINITELY knew that it was something that transcended everyday experience. They reacted by the standing ovation that they honored Sissel with !!

Thank you sooo much. I discovered this song today, what is quite late, and I am so magic-nized 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 And the lyrics are not only religious, they are deeply spiritual, because really, that, was god is, is Stillness, pure Awareness ❤️

[@unalettriceinviaggio]

You're voice is our medicine!

[@jayamalieperera5137]

This is the best song ever. The timming couldn't be better! The world is full of anxiety and uncertainty. Slow diwn by Sissel also the performence in Uttag, is the best vaccin during the pandemi. Joe cam anybody ever find words to say THANK YOU Sissel. I listen to Sissel everyday....

[@raymondrichins3726]

I love and enjoy your music so much and I was in Salt Lake City when you did slow down. Yes I was one of the 18,000 that stood up after you finished. It was so beautiful and touching. That you so much.

[@ManagerGuy1]

You touched me deeply with your vocal, and what you revealed in your talk..thank you. andy

[@Thrillmaster100]

I don't know how she edited this to be a different version but I'm amazed that she did another rendition of this and I'm so glad she did! ! I say I don't know how she did it because this version of her singing it is different from the concert one. I will NEVER forget when i first heard this last summer! I struggle with severe depression, anxiety and chronic suicidality. The last few weeks before the pioneer day concert, i desperately wanted to be done with my life and I couldn't stop thinking about it. I will never forget how frozen i was to the floor when i first saw this sitting from the second row. I literally saw myself as the only one in the room with Mack telling the choir, "Make this really strong for Will everyone! He has really been in the dark and he needs us so desperately right now!"

[@bestaircraftdeal]

I saw you live when you performed that song , it was an amazing experience I've been a fan ever since, I thought I was listening to an angel. Thank you.

[@andyfield7397]

I feel and love the depth of your mind that radiates through your songs. Your angelic voice adds a chiaroscuro to those songs.

[@jerryring6774]

Thank you Sissel. You are a breath of fresh air in a very turbulent world.

[@bobphibbons7858]

Thank you Sissel. What a great way for me to start my day. I really appreciate your talks and music. God Bless

[@marekkoralewski8757]

Cudownie , dziękuję ...

[@Hiperbaton123]

Así es, esta pieza es una medicina para el alma, sea uno creyente o no. Yo, que lo soy, no dudo de que el Cielo inspiró a esta artista y a los músicos para incluir e interpretar esta pieza en el concierto del verano de 2019 y así poner a nuestra disposición, en una época de incertidumbre para todos, un bálsamo que pudiera aliviar y sosegar nuestras mentes y nuestros espíritus.

[@bisbelhoteiro]

Thanks Sissel for your words.

[@donaldwillinger4280]

Thank you for sharing.

[@ludivinaflores3115]

thanks sissel for your email and music. slow down is such a meaningful song.

[@andreyvoyteshenko8692]

Sissel, l caught ye! That priceless time you call "when you have nothing to do" and which gave you so " much energy" was actually a period of important latent work by nature! In modern language it may sound as "charging storage batteries of vitality". You followed your "inner voice", worked in the garden, walked barefoot on the grass and absorbed the energy of the Earth, the vitality of the forests that surround you, the warmth of the sun. I am sure this "idle" period which gave you "so much energy" will be the source of your inspiration and songs for months to come!

[@liamwilson9500]

Thank you so much Sissel for your email,and this so beautiful song..Ilook forward to Studio version so much.Thanks for recording.Stay Safe.

Dear Sissel, your message this morning was wonderful. It was also a surprise, the best surprise I could have had! I, too live so differently. I’m just so sad. Have deep troubles in family, something I would have never guess would ever happen. I have watched the KZbin when you sang in Utah. Saw your intense feelings that song gave you. All that watched you sing “Slow Down” felt what you felt. I think all had tears. It’s beautiful and no one could sing it better! I was tricked into not being able to go to Utah, my heart is still full of anger. As I work today on a project, I will listen to your song. It will help me. This is so generous of you to share. I deeply thank you!

[@arbatus9435]

Hello Sue. Allow Sissel's music to heal you of the anger and pain. It helped me back in 2018 when I lost my best friend. Cheers from The Land Down Under!

[@suesturges6022]

Arbatus, thank you. Really sorry for your lose. Nice of you to send message. Wish you the best!

[@arbatus9435]

@@suesturges6022 Welcome! Came across this site recently. You're doing a great job!

[@cjjenson8212]

I will never ever get married!!! I only bring the best of the world into my life, and since there's only one of you I will have to settle for moments like this😔

[@moose6144]

People have to understand what makes them happy and how hard they need to work to achieve it because everyone should enjoy their life and the very wealthy people they all die just like us but they think they won the game of life with the largest bank account. The one thing that a lot of them do not understand if they should put smiles on peoples faces as they go through life because that’s the most gratifying thing one can do

[@dianalarson2866]

Is the written arrangement the one Sam Cardin did for Sissel?

[@dianalarson2866]

I LOVE Slow Down and would love to have the written arrangement to play on the piano in my home. Is there any way to get it?

[@johnparkway]

The composer has a free copy of it on his website for download.
