Truly MAGIC! Vocal Coach Reacts to Heilung - "Anoana" ft full music & vocal analysis.

[@blortmeister]

For everyone who suggested this...thank you. I doubt I'd ever have just stumbled across this group. And that would have left life smaller. So again, thank you.

[@ms_keira]

I had the blessing of seeing Heilung live last year and it was an overwhelming experience. I cried for half the time as it felt like every song was hammering out decades of trauma I'd held in my body and never knew it. The crowd was absolutely loving and caring for each other & the Earth. My particular ritual (they are very much more a ritual than a concert) was incredibly powerful when they had the Catawba Tribe of Native Americans precede them with sanctifying the space with sage before performing their own blessing. Then they returned at the end for a full out dance and song combined with Heilung's own ending ritual for a beautiful combined experience. Again, more tears. I will absolutely go again if given the chance to.

[@blortmeister]

[@fatherjimbo]

More Heilung please...love this band.

[@AkelasanAK]

right, can't be to much Heilung, which is 'healing' btw

Bro. Its 36 degrees outside and I was like, "WTF is a spider doing this time of year?" LOL How dare you

Lolli - please watch the official video , not just live version- it is stunning and brilliant - the story in the video is spellbinding - thanks again for reviewing this

[@Sigma1_969]

I second that motion.. ❤

[@darccyde]

I third that motion because it's so much better, in my opinion.

[@Sigma1_969]

@@darccyde Both are equally incredible to listen too.. that said, the video is mesmerising and truly captures the meaning of the song. The cinematography alone is worth of an award....One of the greatest "short films" ever.

[@magnusreynhamar35]

Oh yes! Do the video as well.

[@katetracton131]

Yes, the official video tells the story of Anoana and is vivid and gorgeous. I highly recommend you cast your peepers over that to get the full experience :) I’m so glad you enjoyed this!

[@vadimboris3820]

Wow. Suddenly you become my favourite music reaction channel. Great choice of songs!

[@jayjohnson3732]

The language isn’t modern. They use proto-Norse, proto-German, etc. If you want to hear Maria using some more, and different, techniques, listen to “In Maidjan” live. Also, “Traust” live.

[@NMcGillMusic]

I agree! In my opinion, In Maidjan is one of the best representations of Maria's skill. In fact, the whole Lifa show is worth immersing yourself in.

[@n5iln]

Co-signed for "Traust".

[@jayjohnson3732]

Full disclosure, “Traust” live is quite, dramatic.

[@jamesa862]

As a Scandinavian, the language sounds like a simlish version to mine. Like it sounds like I hear actual words but is just gibberish. Trippy

[@DaLander]

@@NMcGillMusic Agree. Link for In Maidjan: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZ66hY1pgMuhjqc

I will never get over how you somehow manage to replicate all the sounds this wide range of specialized singers in your videos.

[@littlemouse7066]

not exactly replicate but she did her best.

[@andytripp2002]

YYYYAAAAAASSSSS! so excited you got to heilung! they start their concert/ritual by casting a circle and end with closing the circle. their concerts can be a very visceral spiritual experience if you are open to it. all of their music is fantastic. so glad you got here. and i agree about watching the official video(s) as well! always love the reviews/analysis. you are my fav on youtube.

[@justmecl4507]

Oh yay !!!!! I requested this a long time ago- am so excited for this !!!😊

[@RiyazLearnSinging]

Your energy is just infectious! Love how you dive so deep into the music, it feels like a spiritual journey.

[@abrown1301]

Heilung is amazing. "Anoana" is one of their most accessible songs, but "In Maidjan" from their first ever concert Lifa will be quite the experience. It really showcases what Maria is capable of.

[@duncansonoryan]

Also, Krisgaldr.

[@araceli2827]

All the songs are so good

[@RampRat1984]

I finally saw them this year in concert and it was, without doubt, the best, most emotional concert I have seen in my life and I’ve been to hundreds of shows. It was on its own level.

[@C64SX]

That ending still takes my breath away. Love it.

[@jonbridge1285]

I love this song and often listen to the recorded version. When they released this live version and I first heard this ending, it genuinely sent shivers down my spine! Amazing!

[@DarkhorseUK]

So happy and thank you. As recommended by others, the official video is beautiful and a must see. In Maidjan I am sure will be mentioned as a next step and I would agree. Good times.

[@Lancer4323]

Thanks!

[@stephenstone5700]

I've seen many reactions to this song, but you are the first one to discuss the cymatics of the instruments. THANK YOU!!!

[@segmet81]

Got to see them here in Milwaukee,Wisconsin. I took my sister with and it blew her mind since this being her first time listening to Heilung, and how better to introduce her to such an amazing band than to listen to them live and up close. 😁

[@RyGuy1538]

So disappointed I was not able to see them when they came here! However I am happy that so many others got to experience them! I am hopeful they will return someday…

[@RafaPiloni]

Heilung is insane. Whenever I listen to them I'm left with the feeling of: "Yes! That's what music should do to a person"

[@EnricoMarangonJunior]

Lolli, your hair is absolutely beautiful all the way it is, your internal unicorn is happy with your purple hair fringes or "bangs", This shows you are full of everything fantastic, but in the outside you don't scare normal people. Please keep the purple but just the fringes. And "girl U R absolutely stunning to watch.

[@Alykzandria]

I LOVE that you finally have tiptoed into Heilung! I highly recommend their songs; Krigsgaldr, In Maidjan, Traust, and Hamrer Hippyer

[@benporteranubisankh]

I legit just searched your channel two days ago to see if you had done Heilung. I’m so excited for this! I discovered them for myself just last winter and their music is so inspiring!

[@cali7xx]

1. I love hearing u talk about music, ur super knowledgeable and it shows at every turn!! (fellow musician here) 2. Your new setup look is fab! light/positioning/hair/makeup, U look brill x

[@BowieChrisReaDimashlover]

It was a real pleasure to listen to your analysis and your remarkable vocalizations. Thank you. Ce fut un réel plaisir d'écouter votre analyse et vos remarquables vocalisations. Merci.

[@lisamclaren3532]

Always a pleasure having one of my favourite reactors finding my favourite band!! I agree with everyone, you do need to see the official music video for this one. I want to see your reaction to the end of the video especially!! Next on the list, In Maidjan, Alfadhirhaiti, and Krigsgaldr ❤

[@ScottErb]

This is one of the best reaction videos I've seen of this song and band. I'm kind of addicted to reaction videos of this particular song, which I love. You touch on so many aspects that others do not and you are also so fun to watch react to this song. I'm right there with you on this! I get so many goosebumps from this song especially at the end with the harmony of the singers. I can watch this band play always! Thank you for such a lovely reaction video, this made my day!

[@wombazful]

Finally some Heilung on this channel! I absolutely love them. I highly recommend you to react to 'In Maidjan' from the live Lifa show (at Castlefest). I also recommend you to watch the whole thing, it's a big ritual and their first ever live show! Absolutely mindblowing!

[@kmsimi]

Lolli - you are guiding me to access my feelings through music with you… Thank you!

[@PatrickKCompton]

Lolli, I 2nd, 3rd, and 4th all saying plz watch the official music video. Honestly leaves me stunned and in tears every time I watch it. Happy singing everyone! 😊

[@seelenwinter6662]

and the official video is by far not as good as the live version... and i dont need a video which tells me what i have to think...

[@PatrickKCompton]

@@seelenwinter6662 Agreed. Love Heilung and Maria Franz! Yes, the LIVE performance is stunning and I hope to see them on tour one day. It's just the story they tell in the video combined with the music that is fantastic for me and many others. And the ending - speechless!

[@nigeldepledge3790]

Thank you, Lolli. Your reaction & analysis videos are always joyful, and you always make me smile.

[@BerishStarr]

A Heilung concert (called Rituals by Heilung) is an experience like no other. If you ever get the chance, take it. If for no other reason, just to experience something new. Thank you for this, you are amazing ❤🤙

[@wozki]

Actually just saw them live this last tuesday! If you like their music you HAVE to see them live! It's beyond describable. Beautiful performance, overwhelming visuals and combined with the blasting bass it's just something else. Looking forward to the next time 😊

[@aaronsensei7637]

I love watching your expression and passion through everything you share. Your analysis is amazing and I learn so much from you. I love this music it's hauntingly beautiful

[@bronzeboy6906]

Lolli, you were in a fantastic mood for this analysis and breakdown! It shown through! Can you image this music in the moonlight with the northern lights and minus electricity and all that it brings, performed in a big circle by the shore as the rest of the tribe takes it in and participates as they can! Gives me shivers just to think about it! Oh yeah you looked extra gorgeous tonight! Must’ve been the fantastic mood! Hugs!

[@casskim]

Im so happy you reacted to them! The music video of this is stunning

[@fireblow44]

my gosh, your vocal showcases are just something else. I know that I've said this multiple times before but I will keep saying it until the end of time. just you, the microphone and your room. no music, no additional effects. heilung are good but this is somehow even better. it's just so peaceful and filled withg grace and beautiy...

[@michaelarmstrong2797]

I very very rarely comment on things like this but i felt i had to. That was moving, truly moving. I absolutely love music like this and it reminds me Sacred Spirit- whishes of hopefulness and prosperity. I'm defiantly a fan of this group and you! 😊

[@joustingdude]

I just love Heilung. I think you've summarized their vibe very accurately. It's trancy and natural and fundamentally human animal :-) I have joked with my wife that if I ever disappear then I've probably run away to join Heilung :-)

[@1982evilj]

This is a match made in heaven. Totally emotional soul music and a reactor who is emotionally attached to her soul. Love it!

[@BB-gb3lj]

I could not have said it better, she is my favorite reactor because of the way she can explain the process and dynamics of the music but also show us the emotion through her reactions.

[@reticentraven]

That was a truly enjoyable, remarkable, entertaining and informative reaction! It's worth watching the official video for this piece as it too will add a magical element to this story. Would absolutely love to see them live. Watching from Toronto, Canada!

[@mikeconway9849]

Great reaction, Lolli! I always find this song to be very calming. I have to go with the people recommending the official video. It is stunning.

[@valixvi7063]

Been waiting for you to react to Heilung for years! Not disappointed!!

[@JDKMAR]

its a magical song and you provided a suitably magical reaction. thank you.

[@markkairial]

I caught the A440 flight to Lolli Land then traveled the learning curve highway on the 5th and 6th. A delicious trifle awaited, layered with psychological analysis and vocal techniques on a base of common yet powerful progressions. As I fly away I turn to see the fiery hair of Lagertha Lolli through a break in the clouds. I am calmed. Thank you for the knowledge, wisdom and fun!

[@uncleuhls]

at the end it looked like you were choking up. Don't worry 25K Heilung fans viewed this and cried with you. Start were we all did with Heilung Lifa Full Show...the 1st song has some amazing vocals by Maria.

[@StarStuffGal321]

I saw them perform live, this song a part of the ritual. It’s transcendent! Love your reactions. And your own work! You have such a gorgeous voice

[@svein022]

The lyrics to this particular song came from an ancient coin. No one really knows what it says but they chose build a song around it. The music video is beautiful as well!

[@rnowak85]

Lovely reaction! As other's have said seeing them live is an amazing experience. They call their shows Rituals and that is exactly what they are. When I saw them live it was an incredible spiritual journey. They started with a blessing and this reading Remember, that we all are brothers All people, beasts, trees and stone and wind We all descend from the one great being That was always there Before people lived and named it Before the first seed sprouted On a technique note I believe Maria is singing in a Kulning style when she is singing those high piercing notes. The studio/music video version I think it is more obvious she is singing it that traditional nordic style used by women to call home cattle from the fields. Very powerful!

[@Exilfranke78]

Hi Lolli. FIrst of all: great analysis. But if you ever get the opportunity near you: go see them live! Heilung don´t play concerts, they perform rituals! Went to three of them since 2022 and am looking forward to one later this month. The last one was in a (unfortunately modern) amphitheater here in Germany in pouring rain. Nobody cared!

[@vandalworks45]

I'm so glad you've finally got around to this, I love this song so much. Its one of those songs I feel just as much as I hear, stick it on in a blackened room and its a bewildering experience.

[@jinjerfyre]

Oooh Heilung, love it!! Great request @justmecl4507 can't wait to see Lolli break down their unique vocals

[@professoryaffle]

I was at that show😊 beyond magical into transcendence❤

[@TheAsphyx666]

Heilung are brilliant and absolutely unique. Going to see them live again tomorrow. Can't wait.

[@mwflanagan1]

Thank you for this one, Lolli. Your analysis is so superb, and would be laudable by itself, but your engagement, personality, love of what you do and shtick (in the best possible manifestation) make your postings evoke “Ooooooh!” when I notice them. An excellent, different group you might well enjoy is Dakha Brakha. In case you prefer to go in blind, I won’t describe them, but a simple Google will put you in the mind to pursue them.

[@warriorpitbull1170]

I'm simply ecstatic that you're venturing into Heilung. As much as I love Anoana, I do hope that you will give us an analysis of 'In Maidjan' specifically from their LIFA performance. Maria's voice is breathtakingly beautiful.

[@APaganPerspective]

Maria Franz is a GODDESS

[@MegaKrytonite]

Thank you fairy voice mother just subscribed..your awesome you got love in Brooklyn gang 🤞🏾

Heilung is an experience best served live for sure. Their name meaning Healing is such a match to the music and the experience. Thanks for the quality analysis,, as always.

[@Souladrift]

I clicked on the thumbnail for this a couple of weeks ago, but only played a few seconds. Glad I waited to hear it now! Love that you called Yma Sumac “not relaxed.” She is always intense. Her Mambo album is a bit more accessible, though still strange and fantastic.

[@markdewdney9370]

Another brill reaction Lolli. Thank you. I am always struck by the universality of music, how much it is our one true language. There are echoes in this to Native American, Native Australian, Scandanavian and Mongolian music, to name a few. Great choice.

I love watching you reaction to this. I can tell you felt it. Going to be checking your channel out more for sure. I liked the critique

[@KiraX30]

Seen 'Heilung' a few weeks ago for the first time. It was a truly magical, captivating, spiritual experience. The music was so powerful and uplifting and calming my mind at the same time. You feel the energy in the room. Everyone abandoned themselves to the music, dancing in their own way.

[@dazzzlingworld]

So excited, I am finally going to see them live next week! So ready and open to experience this!

[@viperwolfknife630]

Yet another absolutely unparalleled reaction to a musical masterpiece. I had been hoping and waiting for you to dive into Heilung. I knew your explanations of what is happening and your ability to literally demonstrate it in real time as you describe it to us would be absolutely brilliant, impressive, and enlightening. I positively cannot wait to see you explore more of this incredible band and share the journey with us. Please do some breakdowns of several of the live performances from Lifa, as others have suggested. Also, definitely check out the video for this song as mentioned. It is exceptionally powerful.

[@TheFairyVoiceMother]

That’s so lovely of you to say 💜 I am so happy you enjoyed this, thank you for your wonderful energy.
