You two are so nice to watch. I'm enjoying the song even more than I already did when watching you two enjoying the song as much as it should be enjoyed! Thank you for sharing this love!
MILLE ! (1000? Gratcie? )... Tusen hjertelig takk!!! From the hart and spirit of Norway🙏🫠🥰 You 2 are SO BEAUTYFUL!!! Takk så hjertelig mye from Norway and Gåte ❤❤❤
Gåte is pronounced Gaw-teh 😍 Love your reaction, you look so cute and happy ❤️ I think Ulveham is a magical, powerful and poetic song - Gunnhilds voice are so beautiful! 12 points to Norway 🥇
Gåte’s music is a dark, mesmerizing and stunningly beautiful take on Nordic folk. Where they flirt with elements from traditional Norse and pagan music as well as from more modern genres like rock and industrial. The chorus is a socalled KULOKK, - the maiden calling the cattle in from the the mountains. The roots of this song is a thousand years old.
I love Gåde's powerful version and hope they win the whole Eurovision contest! Heja Norge!!! 😘🇧🇻✌️ Love from Sweden! Btw, here's a video with english translations of all the (dark) lyrics from this old Scandinavian/Norse ballad for anyone interested... th-cam.com/video/dLYkogvmqYg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=CixZdaz-ixhoo8WW The ballad is called Vedergällningen (The Revenge?) by Garmarna, an old swedish folk-rock group. So not to be confused by Varulven (The Werewolf) which is another old scandinavian folkballad, th-cam.com/video/nD8MKECCdxc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rGwsGWTBXCoBY6Kn
The song itself is inspired by a norwegian medieval folklore/ballade. Ulveham means wolfskin English lyrics: [Sample: Vocalization; Marit Jensen Lillebuen] [Verse 1] “I was such a beautiful maiden My stepmother evil, my mother she died She turned me into a sword and a needle And sent me to the king's estate And the anger my stepmother felt the most That all the stately liked me best [Chorus: Vocalization] [Verse 2] Then she gave me skin like a grey wolf She cursed me to walk the forest alone And never will I bе whole and good Before I drink my brothеrs' blood [Chorus: Vocalization] [Outro: Vocalization, Storm] I thеn tore out her heart So her blood flowed free Then I got to drink my brothers' blood”
Si pronuncia “gote” (in italiano). Mi piace la vostra immediatezza, mi parete sinceri nelle vostre reazioni. Tanti saluti da una norvegese che ha vissuto in Italia e visita Colombia spesso. Gåte è pura magia, speriamo bene….
The lyric is based on the story of a young maiden who is kind and good, and whom everyone loves. Her mother is dead, but her father remarries, and the maiden's stepmother is very jealous of her. The evil stepmother transforms her, first into a needle, then into a knife and then into a sword. However, the maiden's good disposition prevails even though she is a transformed being, and all the most important people of the highest rank value immeasurably the objects into which the maiden has been transformed. The stepmother does not like this. To punish the girl even more severely, she now transforms her into a wolf and adds a curse that she will roam the forest until she has drunk her brother's blood (and she has no brother). After a while, the stepmother becomes pregnant, even though she is an old woman. On the way to the church, the transformed wolf pounces on her, rips her heart out of her body and drinks her blood. Thus she indirectly drinks her brother's blood, the spell and the curse are broken and the maiden emerges as beautiful and kind.
Grazie mille❤️ Very nice reaction👍 English lyrics: [Sample: Vocalization; Marit Jensen Lillebuen] [Verse 1] I was such a beautiful maiden My stepmother evil, my mother she died She turned me into a sword and a needle And sent me to the king's estate And the anger my stepmother felt the most That all the stately liked me best [Chorus: Vocalization] [Verse 2] Then she gave me skin like a grey wolf She cursed me to walk the forest alone And never will I bе whole and good Before I drink my brothеrs' blood [Chorus: Vocalization]
Great reaction (even though I dont speak Italian, but I used subtitles and loved your smiles and body language 🥰). I hope Italian people will vote for us in the 2nd semi final. I love Italy! The story of the song is explained by others below, but its basically about to free yourself from someone who has power over you, and you do it on your own terms. The way she sings her "shouting notes" is from traditional Norwegian folk music and can be described as some kind of calling sound «lokk», a sound which is supposed to reach far in nature (forest or mountain) so it needs to be loud. Its kind of a Scandinavian yodling-sound used also to call for a herd (sheep, cows etc) but also a calling sound used in folk tradition or by super natural beings like the «Huldra» to «trick» humans and animals to appear in the forest/mountains. Arrivederci. Amore dalla Norvegia 🇳🇴🇮🇹
This was such a nice reaction video 🥰. I certainly gave my thumbs up 😁👍. Seeing your positive reactions makes me tempted to suggest a couple of other songs by this same band that emphasizes on the pure authentic traditional singing techniques and music without the influence of rock. The band has periodically been producing folk rock or folk music, and both with or without electronica. Which I think is great as it gives a wide range of musical expressions 🎶. 🎶 The story behind the song "Hemnarsverdet" is a folk tale about the topic of vendetta (see the music link below!) where a young man seeks to revenge the murdering of his own father. As for many of the folk tales items have human characteristics and the man asks his sword for help with the revenge, but it turns out that the sword acts on its own and beyond the control of the man holding the sword and he ends up killing not only the son of the murderer, but even innocent people, including a woman and a child without he intending to. The man holding the sword understands that things get really out of hand at this point and begs the sword in the name of God to stop, which it does or it would've killed him as well as the next thing ⚔️. This old traditional acrobstic style of dance is called "Halling" and derives from the valley of Hallingdal. At one point it was regarded as sinful dancing by some people in the past. Which may be explained that a number of murders happened between the young battling male while doing the halling dance. People abroad may remember seeing this style of dance in Eurovision at the performance of the winning song of Eurovision 2009, "Fairytale" by Alexander Rybak where the dance group Frikar was a part of the show. 🎻 The fiddle that you see in this music video is the "Hardingfele", (played by the musician that sits on the stairs. I'm not pointing towards the "key fiddle/key harp" which is another instrument used for this song, played by the standing musician in this video). The "Hardingfele" has achieved the status as Norway's national instrument, and originates from the beautiful area called Hardanger from the 1600s (and therefore is referred to in English as the "Hardanger fiddle"). This type of fiddle differs from other types of fiddle that you find abroad. Visually it's richly decorated with ornaments and has a little different shape and size compared to the regular fiddle, different number of strings (8 or 9 strings which includes 4 resonance strings, which the regular 4 stringed fiddles and violins lack). The strings are different lenghted and us tuned higher than the instrument found abroad. The Hardanger fiddle was banned in the past for a period in the more strictly religious areas in the 1800s and musicians had their instruments confiscated and burned. To play this instrument was by some regarded as taking part in the act of the devil and that it could put people in the state of trance which could lead to bad things happening. People often got drunk and started fighting during the gatherings where music was played. There were female fiddle players also. Some of the musicians kept playing this instrument in secret. Things are very different nowadays when folkmusic accompanied by the fiddle may be played even at the church 🎻🎶😁. Luckily our music traditions was not put an end to and it pleases me that people still keep old lyrics and singing techniques alive despite the attempts of ruling it out due to religious views.

Many people are not aware of what she actually sings, which in my opinion is a cruel text from the old days. I am from Norway and dont like it ! The text copied from newspaper: She summarizes "Ulveham", based on an old medieval ballad, as the story of an evil stepmother who casts a curse on her stepdaughter - who turns into a wolf running in the forest forever. She only loses her wolf's hide if she drinks her own brother's blood. "There will be a kind of happy - but cruel - ending when she meets the stepmother on horseback in the forest, throws herself at her, rips out her heart and drinks the blood. Because the stepmother is pregnant with her brother - thereby the curse is lifted.
The moment she bends backwords and just screams from the bottom of her lungs. Goosebumps from here to the moon!
What a lovely, passionate reaction! Loved it.❤
Fantastic song and a great reaction!
My favorite song this year

Love your reaction, you look so cute and happy ❤️ I think Ulveham is a magical, powerful and poetic song - Gunnhilds voice are so beautiful! 12 points to Norway 🥇
To be more precise Gåte is pronounced like the Itallian word "gote", but with more emphasis on the Å/O sound.
Gåte’s music is a dark, mesmerizing and stunningly beautiful take on Nordic folk. Where they flirt with elements from traditional Norse and pagan music as well as from more modern genres like rock and industrial.
The chorus is a socalled KULOKK, - the maiden calling the cattle in from the the mountains. The roots of this song is a thousand years old.
Thanks from Norway who loves Måneskin ❤️🇳🇴
Il they wins, are the 3rd band to win the Eurovision and nordic band.

Ulveham means wolfskin
English lyrics:
[Sample: Vocalization; Marit Jensen Lillebuen]
[Verse 1]
“I was such a beautiful maiden
My stepmother evil, my mother she died
She turned me into a sword and a needle
And sent me to the king's estate
And the anger my stepmother felt the most
That all the stately liked me best
[Chorus: Vocalization]
[Verse 2]
Then she gave me skin like a grey wolf
She cursed me to walk the forest alone
And never will I bе whole and good
Before I drink my brothеrs' blood
[Chorus: Vocalization]
[Outro: Vocalization, Storm]
I thеn tore out her heart
So her blood flowed free
Then I got to drink my brothers' blood”
Che grinta che voce bravissima 👏👏👏👏👏

I could have guessed Italien like it as they are trditional and like rock
I'm Norwegian and understood at least 80 % of what you said. Language is a beutiful thing. Leave it to the math folks to get their language across. :)
É molto interessante questa canzone, a me è piaciuta molto.
Speriamo bene.

Also the Girl from Romania
Many people are not aware of what she actually sings, which in my opinion is a cruel text from the old days. I am from Norway and dont like it ! The text copied from newspaper:
She summarizes "Ulveham", based on an old medieval ballad, as the story of an evil stepmother who casts a curse on her stepdaughter - who turns into a wolf running in the forest forever. She only loses her wolf's hide if she drinks her own brother's blood.

An evil stepmother story? Yikes.
