By ThereIsAWay 1150474639 Reply Spam [+2] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI know this video has been up for a while, but i just found it. Wish I knew how to add to the rating, i would give it 5 immediately. I loved it when Kurt won the World Idol, and I have laughed since then that it has never been held again. I guess when you try to rig the competition, and it backfires, no use trying again!
The power in Kurts voice is incredible, I am no expert, but it appeared to me in his solo in the song that that he went throught two or 3 octaves at the end of it - even if not it his control was very impressive. The four of them are a great ensemble, all distinctive, yet complimentary voices, and I have heard that it is more difficult to sing sitting, as harder to expand the diaphram. I wish they would tour North America, I would bring my family in a flash to their concert.
Well done, I echo all who say that we need more of this classy music, and less wailing and screaming from Ms Clarkson et al.
This was done very well. It also goes to show that you DO NOT have to look good to be able to sing well, nor do you have to scream. This also can give true hope to musically gifted childeren that don't look like the hype that media leads people to believe. This kind of music is a lot like an emotion. You have to just let it flow out of you. Again, excellent to see something of this quality on MetaCafe.com.
By Tarioth 1152675660 Reply Spam [+5] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveAmen to that.
Maybe the MTV Generation should learn to take a step back and let real culture take reign, no?
A beautifully done song.
blows me away =)
Espen Lind (also known as Sway, at least here in Norway =p), Askil Holm, Alejandro Fuentes (who sounds a lot like David Gray) and Kurt Nilsen (World Idol winner).
Both Kurt and Alejandro are former Idol contestants. Espen Lind is probably most known for the lovely "When Susanna Cries". Anyways, they really nail this song...had gotten a bit tired of all the versions, but this one certainly didn't hurt=)
This is my most favourite song ever, and in my oppinion this is one of the best versions. Can anyone tell me who this band is?????
By gazhff123 1152749123 Reply Spam [+3] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethey're not a band really, they just came together and held some concert's this year. But they have given out a cd called Hallelujah, by Espen Lind, Kurt Nilsen, Alejandro Fuentes and Askil Holm.

By unknown??? 1151333864 Reply Spam [+2] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThe last one was Kurt Nilsen, the guy who won the only World Idol contest that was ever hold, where he beat Kelly Clarkson. He is about the only one from the norwegian version of American Idol that really could sing. He was the first winner ever of the contest, and the fourth contest was finished a month ago.
But he could take a little of that Idol money and visit the dentist.
By Bermo 1150261395 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removehe would never ever correct his teeth.. That's who he is, and our differences should be appreciated. It also proves that you can be successfull even though you don't look like Ken or Barbie.
By Linnea 1152755177 Reply Spam [+4] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveBermo needs to take some time and think of what's important.
Looks don't mean a thing--they really don't. We just make them more important than they should be.
Kurt is fine just the way he is--talented, successful, and passionate about what he does. He doesn't need to change a thing, especially about his appearance.
he cant do that... the teeth of Kurt Nilsen has become his trademark, if you can call it that..
In an early interview he said he wanted to get it fixed, but after a while traveling the world, this was one of the things that made people recognize him...
also known for being a hobbit - look - alike..... Great singer though!
By Bober69962 1150327996 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWhat a grand chorous of discordant voices all with a time to shine solo and then harmonize but a song with simplicity of instrument and profound theme- but so true the song can bring you up no matter where you may be I would hope- why is it so unknown. Spread the joy
By hwhitey 1169009487 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI heard the Jeff Buckley soundtrack played on TV show and was haunted by it. Did a Google search and found this version, which I think is totally awesome. I sit at my computer, put it on repeat, sit back, close my eyes and find total bliss! Thank you!
By witley 1164490195 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removemy soul is stirred. The peace, joy and lust for all things beautiful invoked by these guys is enormus. My thanks to the one who submitted it. I want more, more, and even more from this group.
By thepilgrimruthie 1159513767 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveIm a Norwegian my self is this is what makes me prud of being a norwegian... The sound is of course playback from the the performance they had in their consert... But its really nice... I can still remember wathcing Kurt Nilsen getting 10 pointers from almost everybody... That was great fro Norway, since they never have done very well in talent contests... And he beat Kelly Clarkson who is now a really good singer... Awsome Good!! But Kurt is better:P I know this commment is long buit just have to say Fuentes has a really special voice that calm you down in a real nice way... Also goes for Espen and Askil who is two of the greatest singers in Norway....
GO NORWAY!! =)
playback. In the consert version you hear a lot of people singing along and cheering. Awesome music and performance, so harmonic
