- This was had me on the ropes almost the entire song. What a touching sing and yet even more of a touching video. Enough said. Watch and experience...
Never be embarrassed by Tears that are evoked by such a haunting and beautiful song. Your reactions are heartfelt and I truly appreciate that.
Thanks Susan!
I agree, but here it isnt any tears, are there. It is fakeness. That video will, if you have real emotions, produce a lot of emotions. You have been fooled by a person with a npd
@@kayleighmoran what do you mean by that?
@@annapanna2010 what is your question? What do I mean by what?
Those with npd, which is an uncommon condition, tend to tell others that their feelings are "fake". It comes from the sense of "entitlement" they think they have to declare the private inner emotions of strangers in whatever way they fancy. Never listen to anyone who uses the word "fake" to describe another human being.
Ps. Larry your video response is the mark of a REAL PERSON. An intelligent compassionate gentleman.
Respect to you.
Susanne Sundfør is a very talented norwegian sing and songwriter, born 19.03. 1986. You should try out her "Undercover" (Live) 👌The woman holding the the hand of photographer Lene Marie Fossen in the hospitalbed is Susanne Sundfør.
She is 36. And the world needs her.
This video of a photographer with severe illness and Suzannes voice grabs your heart. So human, so simple and so emotional,
This one was so beautiful.
This video was so deeply touching-I couldn't understand the lyrics, but I didn't need to. Just the sound of them explained the emotions of the stunning visuals. I believe this video would bring most everyone to tears. It's one that you watch and listen to with your heart and soul. Thanks for sharing this lovely piece of humanity.
It floors me how the the story life can be told so beautifully.
Thank you very much for reacting to this, Chris ! You know, this is a song I wouldn't recommend to just ANY reactor, or just ANY human being. I almost feel bad for putting you through it, but I'm also very happy that you reacted the way you did. I guess this song touches you even more when you're aware of the story behind it, like many people here in Norway do. Or at least more peole here than most other places, as both Susanne and Lene Marie Fossen are Norwegian. The fact that the two were close, personal friends just makes this SO incredibly beautiful IMO. Such a beautiful tribute to Lene the artist, but also Lene the human being. As much as she struggled with her anorexia herself, she never failed in portraying those in need and that somehow were even worse off than herself. Having watched the documentary "Self Portrait" also adds another dimension to it. But even without this knowledge this song and video just pulls on you. The emotional roller coaster you get from seeing the despair, the hope, the beauty, her harsh illness, mixed with the "when the Lord" message is very special indeed.
So thanks again, my friend. And there will be no more PSSST!s from THIS bloke. I promise :-)
I wish you and your family a very Happy New Year, and I'm looking forward to sharing more musical excellence with you in 2022 :-)
Psst! Thanks! This photographer must have really gone through it.
Also, I was notified on something that I'd pass along to you. I added the link of this video in my reaction of her song. This was pretty fun to discover. I had a notification that I hadn't notice before. Much fun! th-cam.com/video/WXempf8mruQ/w-d-xo.html
@@larryshair I just watched the link you added….. much fun indeed!
@@larryshair Wow. Thanks! That was great fun to watch🙂 All those reactors in awe from reaching to MY special girl. And SO cool that BagiBagi included you in the compilation👍 All of these reactors are known to me, as they all react to Angelina from time to time, but apart from you, there is ONE in particular, namely WhatItDoDave that I really love. I have 3 favorite reactors: You, WhatItDoDave and Adam Straughan. I have shortcuts to 3 reactions right on my desktop, and WhatItDoDave"s reaction to this song is one of them. You should really go and watch it😂😂😂 : m.th-cam.com/video/yXRfUfdlC7c/w-d-xo.html&t
Thanks for letting us know about this👍👍👍🙏🦶🐸🍔🎂🇸🇯
Hmm... REACHING to my girl ? Oh well...
What a beautiful reaction, I was crying along with you even though Ive seen the video many times already.
Susanne is definitely not that young, she was probably 32 when she sang this. Her voice is amazing, and the refugee crisis on Chios along with the pictures of Lene knowing that she died before her film self portrait came out is just very heartbreaking. She never wanted to die but she was so deep into her illness that nothing could help her.
I remember seing an interview of her live on the breakfast tv show.
She had been in and out if treatment since she was 10 and died at 30 or 31 years old and left a legacy of beautiful photos and was an inspiration to many. What started off her anorexia was the fear of growing up, so as she starved herself from the age of 10 she stopped growing😢.
Susanne’s lyrics are often very deep and tragic even though her songs might not all come across dark melody wise.
I hope you do another reaction to one of her other songs, this is definitely the saddest one so the next one wouldn’t be as gut wrenching.
I love her : Silicone veil (live at Skavland) version.
She is so talented.
So sad to hear she died from an illness such as this.
@@larryshair yes it’d difficult to understand how deep it goes but its very much a mental illness that develops much like depression. You can’t just get a grip. At least thats how I think it is, your toxic mind has all the control.
At last,Susanne,one of the greatest gem from Norway,along with Angelina and Aurora.Recommend Undercover Live at Stoller,The Brothel video,White Foxes at the Nobel Peace Prize consert.Y r the right guy to react to her,Great reactions.
Or, "The Brothel" (Live at la Cigale) But "Running to the sea" need to be the MV.
Thank you for your genuin reaction
ahhhhhh i have been waiting for you to discover this artist, and in particular this song. I am a photographer, and a great admirerer of the late Lena Marie Fossen.
You truly live up to the biblical meaning of your name. Love to you. Thank you Chris! Appreciate everything so very much! Patti
Awww! You are so kind!
I have been watching anything I could find about this music/video and photographer/artist. Such striking images… and the lyrics to the song are beautiful. I don’t know if it is proper to post them here, but is an easy google search. I am … too many emotional reactions to list them all…. But know that I will never forget responding at such a gut level to a video and the moments in time captured in its creation. Thank you so very much for reacting to this.
Thank you for reacting on this video. I haven't seen it before, but have read about the movie and the artist that is portraited here. It is not Sundfør, she is a norwegian singer/songwriter, 35 years. Unfortunately I haven't followed her so much, but i know she is amazing; one of our great ones in Norway. Look her up, you will find lots of info, I guess. Her voice is absolutely wonderful, out of this world! Love your reaction. Thank you again.
No worries about the waterworks, this music video should come with a warning; bring tissues... 🌊💧
It's the "music video" for this song, but song is written for the documentary "SelfPortrait". It is a documentary about the young photographer Lene Marie Fossen, who decided to stop eating at a very young age, and developed anorexia. A documentary I recommend, it should be mandatory in every elementary school or at least high school. It's raw and touching, and straight to the bone.
Susanne Sundfør is a Norwegian singer, she's had hits w film music for Oblivion (Tom Cruise) She's born in 1986, same year as the woman in the documentary (maybe they were friends growing up) and we see Susanne in a glimpse sitting by the bed in the hospital.
Susanne has already released 6 solo albums and won several musical awards in Norway.
YOu would be bawling if you knew the backstory before the reaction 😅
Lene Marie Fossen battled anorexia her whole adult life, and sadly passed away late 2019... This is a video they made for her "self portrait" documentary aboyt Lene Marie.. as someone else wrote further down, Susanne Sundfør is the woman by the bedside at the hospital... all thou this video is very emotional, it does not credit Susanne as much as other songs... Undercover, the brothel, sillicon vail, white foxes are songs were she really shines :)
But thanks for this reaction, i really enjoyd it (as all the others) it's about time Susanne get some recognition around the world.. she is a brilliant artist, and EXTREMELY good live :)
Thanks so much for the back story. You know that I love the feedback like this. Much appreciated!
@@larryshair
Let me go back
To when I was young
Here, I was born
Here, I will die lonesome
Let there be light
Let there be love
Hear the bells
Ringin' our song
Wake me, wake me, wake me up, my darling
When the Lord has descended on us
All the worries that you carried with you
They are lost in a warm embrace
Timelessness
Far away
From the land
Where love is shame
And shame is love of a prison
Away from the dark
Snow-covered hearts
Softly, lay your hands on me
Wake me, wake me, wake me up, my darling
When the Lord has descended on us
All the worries that you carried with you
They are lost in a warm embrace
Timelessness
Beautifully real. Raw.
OMG Larry!! So happy you're covering another gem of an artist!!! Susanne Sundfor is such an enigmatic, beautiful singer and songwriter - another Norwegian treasure. Please check out her songs "Undercover" and "Oblivion" (ft. M83) - there are live performances for both and my gosh, like Aurora, she brings me to tears :') always a pleasure to cry tears of catharsis along with you
Hey Larry, i come back to you often when I hear Susanne preforming this song, just because you show human feelings. This is something I dont feel I can feel or see on youtube today. "When The Lord" was also an eyeopening song for Norwegians as well as we might be not very well prepeared for the uncomfy things that actually life is. However, I admire you for taking this song into you and lif it up to something people can relate to.
Regarding Susannes age; she was close to 34 when this was released. You can see Susanne sitting next to Lene when she is in the hospital bed, holding her hand.
wow never herd of her but very powerful and so sad to watch I'm in tears . 🤣 great pic . you know that I really love your realism on the videos you feel it deep in your heart and soul.
Thanks so much, Wolf!
Love this. Love her. Dive into more of her content. There is magic there.
Susanne Sundfør is incredible 👌👌
one of the best artists of our time. in my opinion better than angelina or aurora.
what ever song you choose, there will be no disappointment, be it a video, be it live
Love Susanne Sundfør
I love your reactions. This time I wish you had known a little about the story behind before you reacted.
This is a tribute for one of our most incredible photographer who documented her own struggle with anorexia and died to soon. Rest In Peace.
❤️❤️❤️
What always gets me in this video is the refugee kids, Lene’s mother crying at the photo exhibition plus Susanne by Lene’s bedside at the hospital and when the imagery is suggesting she «went out the door» and you see a bright light (suggesting she has passed on) and her mother is hugging someone. 😢
I wonder how other people interpret the imagery. Like those blurry photographies that seem to be of Lene with just a face from the side?
Susanne is amazing, this somg is a heavy one but great story.
I'm brought to tears as well---an angel! Here are the lyrics:
'Let me go back
To when I was young
Here, I was born
Here, I will die lonesome
Let there be light
Let there be love
Hear the bells
Ringin' our song
Wake me, wake me, wake me up, my darling

Nice reaction. Maybe someone suggested it allready, but just in case: Psst: The Brothel is one of Susanne's most beautiful songs (among many).
Mine is one of her less known.
Knight of noir...
@@andreaspedersen3952 and Turkish delight!!
We’re maybe overloading you emotionally, Chris?! Beautiful reaction, to a very hard hitting visual self portrait overlaid with Susanne’s music and song. It seems Norway brings forth an exceptional female singer/songwriter every 10 years or thereabouts.
To bring you back on an even keel, I’d suggest Home Free’s new “Snow Globe”, harmonies on harmonies; or for some fun their “Honey, I’m Good” always leaves a smile on my face! What(who)ever you do, I’ll enjoy your reaction 🎄🛌
Another Norwegian to Explorer is Sissel Kyrkjebø. Try «Slow Down» from a concert with the Tabernacel choir and orcestra
It's so nice to just let the beatutiful melancholy wash over you ...
Like a warm blanket ...
" Asleep on the sand and the ocean washing overrrrr ... " ~ Jeff Buckley
Another Norwegian artist. As Aurora, the messages in her lyrics are so important. She is also known for her title song in Tom Cruise movie Oblivion.
"Psst hey... check this one out..."
Worked out this time!!!
Beautiful video, and great reaction vid.
God Bless.
lol, thanks!
I am crying.
6:57 that’s Susanne holding her hand at the hospital bed
I couldnt watch this.
I have had ruff days with lots of pain. I have tried to stay strong. To not break down in tears becouse I cant take it anymore. And as soon as I saw your eyes tear up I had to stop myself from watching. Becouse I cant see that and be strong myself.
So I will save this for later. Watch it when I feel ok with breaking down myself 💛
I'll be praying for you. I know you have been through quite a bit. I'm sad to hear how you're feeling.
@@larryshair I finally fellt strong enough to watch the hole thing. It was beautiful. Thank you
Earned yourself a sub! I e watched a few of your videos and you seem like a genuinely good person. Looking forward to more
Thanks Robert! Much appreciated. Glad to have you along for the ride on this rabbit hole!
❤️
the photographer is Lene marie Fossen (now deceased of anorexia)....the song is written by the singer Susanne Sundfør.
So very sad for someone to succumb to a disease like this...
You should also react to her song «Undercover» 👌
New Album by Susanne Sundfor will be soon released. Check out "alyosha".
This Song is from her Soundtrack and a tribute to now dead photographer Lene Marie Fossen. Soundtrack "Self Portrait"
Ohhhh, good to know, thanks!
Glad you reacted to this one. I suggested it a long time ago.. I agree that the lyrics are hard to hear, but who cares. It's as beautiful as it can be. The entire documentary is highly recommendable. There was a version with subtitles in the planning and I guess it should be available now. I'll check it for yoy
Cannot find the documentary with subtitles yet. But here is a trailer for the documentary (with English subtitles) which explains what you see in the music video that you reacted to. th-cam.com/video/EBCHRlop-hg/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Jos! I really appreciate it!
Been waiting for you to tap in to Susanne Sundfør. She also had a concert in Nidarosdomen, a few years before Aurora. Please do more of hers!
The Brothel
It's All Gone Tomorrow (fav)
Reincarnation
Bah. What am I saying? You should do them all!
Don't know very well Susan's discography, but there is a song I love : White Foxes
I recommend you the album "ten love songs" from Sundfør again. Absolutely amazing work by this woman. I have got the feeling you are gonna love it... ;).
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
💓💓💓💓💓💓
Another one of hers to react to is The Brothel live at Cigal
Reaction official video "white foxes" .. sublime
Susanne Sundfør. "Silicon Veil" (Live at Skavlan 2012)
Great reaction as always👍
We have a lot of great female singers in Norway, and of course male singers 🥰
Pssst! Check out Ina Wroldsen with “St Peter” live, and “Favela”, and “Lay it on me” acoustic version.
She wrote Favela after being in Brazil🥰
She is also a Norwegian singer with a beautiful voice.
In fact, she’s the one singing “How deep is your love”, and she wrote it as well. When Calvin Harris bought the song it was acoustic, and he mixed it up. But he didn’t want Ina on the song as featured Ina Wroldsen, even though she sing the song 🙄
But listen to “St Peter” first, I think you’ll like it👍
It’s a true story from when Ina went to Africa with the aid organization PLAN🥰
Ina Wroldsen has written a lot of songs for other artists like:
Demi Lovato: Lionheart
Britney Spears: He about to lose me
Shontelle: Impossible
Shakira: Empire
And many more👍
So sad to see her die from an illness such as this.
👏🇧🇻👏
Pst! Happy New year - hope you check out Stina Nordenstam, Ane Brun and Jennie Abrahamson next!
Psst, you as well! Happy New Year!
you should listen to Ina Wroldsen - St. Peter and Sigrid with dynamite (acoustic) both are from Norway
I love watching you react. I missed hearing your background? Your comments are never mean or nasty so thank you. Finding several new people to listen to.
Thanks Dianna! You are so very kind! Happy New Year!
Please listen to Oblivion by M83 and sung by this same artist 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
like aurora Sussane is a Norwegian and also amazing artist. you should check her more 🤘🤘🔥🔥
City Wolfs protector
Where can I make a suggestion to a reaction to not disrespect this artist?
Norse (Norwegian) Artists for you: Aurora Aksnes, Einar Selvik (Wardruna), Angelina Jordan, Maria Franz, Sigrid Solbakk, Allan Walker, Anne Nørdsti, Astrid Smeplass, Susanne Sundfør, are just some of them.
Sivert høyem (Madrugada) is also pretty impressive. He does have a different vocal though. Low and unique.
.. who is Sigrid Solbakk? Do you mean Sigrid Råbe?
@@heidifarstadkvalheim4952 she has two last names doesn’t she?
Susanne did the soundtrack to the "Self Portrait documentary". A very strong emotional journey. 😢. Thank you for this.
I know you are a big fan of music that touches you on an emotional level. I would love it if you checked out "Honest Men" by Janet Devlin. (th-cam.com/video/w79qlLPsaPk/w-d-xo.html)
Thanks Rune! I will add this to the list!
@@larryshair ahhh I look forward to it 🥰
@@larryshair Thinking... "Honest men" is really a great song, but quite dark. Its part of a truly lovely put together album, and you might feel the song a bit out of context... but I hope you will like it anyway.
If you want to get a good feel of this artist, you may want to check out "Chandelier" first... th-cam.com/video/M4iz-Fxtmes/w-d-xo.html
Susanne did credit to the anorexic artist, Lenexa. This gets me every time. Whenever was 10 she decided not to eat any more. I have no idea why. It's amazing she lived along as she did. Your reaction was so good.
Oh my! I see somehow the wrong name was showing for the artist. It should have said Lene.
@@patriciamoore6492 she stopped eating at 10 because she wanted to stay a child, she was afraid of growing up. She never hit puberty and stopped growing at all from that point
:( even her voice stayed very young.
@@mari97216 interesting and sad. Thanks!
🙏🇳🇴

Maria is also the lead singer in Heilung.....

lol, ok on the list!
That was beautiful love your reaction. I would love if you reacted to Morissette Amon who I think is the best female vocalists there is. She is the best one breath control vocalists in my option in the world and she does it sitting down. The song is called Akin aka Nalang. I hope you give her a try please and thank you.
Psst! Check out "ill mind of hopsin 7"
lol, on the list.
@@larryshair please add joyner lucas- i'm not racist to the list too! I promise you won't regret it! 😊
FLOOR JANSEN! You are ready!
So beautiful.
I am glad you are willing to branch out in your music reactions.
I would love for you to react to Avi Kaplan.
Technically/Classically he is listed as a Basso Profundo but has a very nice 5+ octave range and is also a polyphonic/overtone singer, so he also has a whistle voice.
With an offer from the L.A. Opera, he made a decision to join the newly forming A Capella group
Pentatonix with whom he remained for 6 years.
He left them in a total state of mental breakdown.
Most of his songs are centered around healing and restoration.
