Sissel - Who Know Where The Time Goes

[@BOB-ro4hv]

I went to bed last night and I was sixteen years old...I awoke this morning and am sixty-six years old...where the fifty years went...who knows? Yesterday I stood at the altar and married my dear sainted Bride...today we have flown through forty two years of life together in a blinding flash...our wonderful children were born this morning and this evening they are out raising their own children and are entering the second third of their lives. Who Knows Where The Time Goes? Indeed! Thank you Sissel. Just Beautiful!

[@TLChrist]

Almost from the first time that I was introduced to Sissel's singing, I felt a growing spiritual connection with her. I recently realized what the connection consists of -- We both share the following attributes. I especially feel it in THIS song. At heart, Sissel IS and always WAS a dreamer, a searcher, a wanderer and an explorer in heart and spirit - on a "spiritual quest". She realizes that something of EXTREME value has been lost or misplaced - it isn't here anymore, it is missing - and she must search for and find it !! Her life will feel empty, incomplete, unfulfilled - with an aching, longing and yearning crying out inside until it is found. She doesn't know WHAT it is that was lost, WHEN or WHERE it was lost, or even HOW to begin the search. She only knows that she MUST search until either she finds it or she dies !! I believe that it is THIS quality or "gift" (at least in part) that accounts for Sissel's mesmerizing power over her audience. She charismatically imparts this longing to her listeners, and induces them to feel a "part of her search and journey". Only speaking and understanding English myself, I notice this quality far more when she is singing in Norwegian, where I am NOT distracted by the words of the song. As I have viewed over 150 of her videos, I sense that this quality was ALWAYS there in many of the songs that she chooses and in her singing itself, and has grown more intense and prominent as she has matured. I believe that this is a "Spiritual Quest", and NOT to be fulfilled in ANY person, place or thing. However, in her latest "Trilogy", this longing has been personified into the concept of a dearly loved one who has departed to a great distance away. In the first video, "I Rest My Eyes", Sissel explains that this love has gone "far away", and she misses him intensely. In her emptiness and loneliness, she watches and longs for his return. Alas, he doesn't come. In the second video, "The Journey" - she resolves to leave all that she has behind, and go to him. It is a long and dangerous journey - "across the ocean" - and she is ready to undertake this perilous venture in a frail, "sailboat". She isn't mindful of the dangers, or even of the fact that - when she gets there - she may not find him, he may have chosen another, or he simply not want here anymore. She only knows, "I must search for my beloved or die of loneliness and a broken heart" !! In the third video, "Home" - she finally arrives on the distant shore, her love IS there waiting for her, they are reunited and live happily ever after !! Sissel says that, "She loves happy endings", and, God Bless her warm and wonderful heart, that she, "Wants EVERYONE to lead a happy, fulfilled life" !!

Sissel not only does a wonderful rendition but I always love watching her expressions.

[@karazaffuto1825]

I love that! So true

[@marygracehughes7455]

I have not heard this song since I was in High School. Judy Collins sang this on the "B"side of "Both Sides Now." Sissel, what a beautiful cover!!

[@suesturges6022]

Oh, Sissel.....That is so beautiful!!!! Thank you!❤️

[@tomtomruth]

The incomparable Sissel, the most pure and beautiful voice in the world, and a very lovely person as well. We can feel the lovely soul she has!

Yuo Said it.

[@garymoore9458]

Sissel has again touched a place in my heart that has brought me to tears. Her words have brings to me the time when I lost my true love and in the time that has passed, so many of my friends have gone on before, and as the words have said, "Who knows where the time Goes". Only Sissel can do this. What a blessing the day I found her and her wonderful passion for songs of the heart.

This has become one of my favorite songs of all time and so glad that I have Sissel singing it on this video.

"Across the morning sky, All the bird are leaving, Ah, how can they know it's time for them to go? Before the winter fire, We'll still be dreaming. I do not count the time Who knows where the time goes? Who knows where the time goes? Sad deserted shore, Your fickle friends are leaving, Ah, but then you know it's time for them to go, But I will still be here, I have no thought of leaving. I do not count the time Who knows where the time goes? Who knows where the time goes? And I'm not alone, While my love is near me, And I know,it will be so,till it's time to go, So come the storms of winter, and then the birds in spring again. I do not fear the time"

[@nanetniemand837]

Absolutely Beautiful , as with all Sissel's songs.

[@davidjames9213]

Im in love with this angel and her voice

[@skinikini]

Wonderful. So peaceful. I'm very grateful for these videos. Thank you.

[@normanmeharry58]

Courageous! this song has been well covered by at least by one famous songster. I can just imagine the disdainers girding their loins in disapproval. However if they could only see their way to freedom of expression and allow for variation then the world would be wonderful...

[@yakinsimanjuntak8203]

Feel blessed 🙏

[@kurtsvensson4416]

Fint att lyssna och se Sissel, jag har dock en önskan att uppleva henne med alla mina sinnen. Uppskattar att f tips om hur jag ska bredda min upplevelse😘

Dice Jorge Bukay que la calma y tranquilidad que te sientes cuando tienes todo lo que necesitas; es la felicidad. desde hace tiempo tu imagen refleja tanta tranquilidad que solo interpreto de esa forma; pareces feliz querida Sissel.

[@gscott5778]

This song fits in well with the Title "Reflections" but it's almost a little sad too.

[@GerardHesen]

Who knows?

[@TLChrist]

There is another hauntingly beautiful rendition of this classic folk tune here: [ kzbin.info/www/bejne/hardpZxtab-abK8 ]. It has a somewhat different musical arrangement.
