Hell yeah. I'm a bit old school, I'd rather a DVD of their covers and their own material. No offence to TH-cam or anyone else. At least then I've got it forever.
Here’s what I can’t understand: These two sisters from Sweden, too young to remember Kenny Rogers or Emmylou Harris in their respective heydays, understand on a cellular level the essence of American country music better than most Americans do. How the HELL is that possible? (Not that I’m complaining...please, ladies, keep up the good work.)
+Geoff Lilley In an interview with Rolling Stone, Klara and Johanna listed that one of their major musical influences was the original Carter Family. Anyone that familiar with the Carter Family will have a firm, deep, instinctual level of feeling and understanding about American Music, Folk, Country and otherwise!
No way they did a terrible version. The way they are singing it is too soft and mushy. This isn't a love song it's a story about a gambler. This is awful and they keep singing ahead of the music. Lol
I have loved this song as long as I can remember....40plus years lol! I follow First Aid Kit, obviously. I appreciate their unique style and clever lyrics! When they started singing THE GAMBLER, I started sobbing and could not stop through out the entire song. The ladies out did themselves! I am sure Kenny is proud!
Another marvelous cover by the Söderberg sisters. Only God knows how many jewels they have in their pockets. Have all their albums and had the pleasure to see them in concert in a small club in Hamburg twice. First time, it was a cold evening in September 2012 , I was waiting togheter with a friend in front of the venue, about two hours before the show, hoping to get the opportunity to talk to them, as suddenly Klara and Johanna rushed out of the main entrance, followed by their father and the drummer. They were only 10 feet away from us but we were both too starstruck to say anything and so they dissapeared into the dark. On one hand it was a sad moment because we missed the chance to talk to them on the other hand we can still laugh about the fact that two die hard Springsteen and Dylan fans became totally speechless in the presence of these young ladys. Anyway, as long as we all are patiently waiting for the new album and hopefully for a tour, we can count ourselves lucky that the girls provide us with such excellent covers like this.
I had a similar experience in November 2012 at The Ritz in Manchester. I was watching their support act and someone stood next to me. It took me a while to realise it was Klara. I was completely star struck. Someone dragged her away for a photo but she came back. I eventually plucked up the courage to ask for an autograph on my ticket stub, realised I had no pen but managed borrowed one...I felt an absolute idiot but she was utterly charming
Wish these beautiful and talented ladies would record a set of albums of all the cover songs they have ever recorded. Their incredible interpretation of the originals is really outstanding and their haunting harmonies are beyond compare.
Such a fantastic cover. I remember listening to the original when I was about six on my dads radio. Couple of years ago I heard this cover. Simply fantastic🐺👍
I can restart this song a hundred thousand times, right as the host sagt deinem spielen... And get goosebumps at different points each and every restart..
Must admit it's a pretty talented bunch of performers on stage. The band and the girls has only rehearsed this for a couple of hours since it's a one off in a TV game show. The tucked in song in the beginning is part of the quiz.
Sweden: "What music is the very essence of your country?" "Thanks. Now watch us cover it in a way that is both completely new and faithful to the original."
Despite their beautiful individual voices, for me the song starts with their harmonies, at "if you're gonna play the game, boy". Rest in peace, Kenneth Ray Rogers.
I dont know what fairy dust was sprayed on them at birth but they have magic in those voices, karma, talent, sensitivity...who knows? Brilliant comes in many forms !
these 2 young ladies are so good that a tune like this one by Kenny Rogers, which I personally can't stand, sounds good when performed by these 2 talented women. I've seen them perform Emmy Lou to Led Zeppelin and all I can say is BRAVO!!!!
This is a swedish quiz program where the participants answer questions based on geographic locations. Before they began to sing there were a question to these song, about something that had a connection to that geographic location and song :)
On a warm summer's evening On a train bound for nowhere I met up with a gambler We were both too tired to sleep So we took turns a-starin' Out the window at the darkness The boredom overtook us And he began to speak He said, "Son, I've made a life Out of readin' people's faces And knowin' what the cards were By the way they held their eyes. So if you don't mind my sayin' I can see you're out of aces For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice." So I handed him my bottle And he drank down my last swallow Then he bummed a cigarette And asked me for a light And the night got deathly quiet And his face lost all expression Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy, You gotta learn to play it right. You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, And know when to run. You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table. There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealing's done. Every gambler knows That the secret to survivin' Is knowin' what to throw away And knowin' what to keep. 'Cause every hand's a winner, And every hand's a loser, And the best that you can hope for Is to die in your sleep." And when he finished speakin' He turned back toward the window Crushed out his cigarette And faded off to sleep And somewhere in the darkness The gambler he broke even And in his final words I found an ace that I could keep

Amazing. I wish they'd make a CD of their covers. They're all so amazing.
gimme an lp rather

I seriously get goose bumps every single time I listen to these ladies.

Absolutely goosebump inducing! Wonderful!

Soft cock
You can see the joy upon nailing the final harmony
I’m sure they would bring a tear to Kenny’s eyes. These very talented girls never cease to amaze me! Another gem here.
I loved these 2 before I even knew this existed. Now I love them even more. I love this song
So I stumbled on these girls two nights ago. And haven't stopped clicking on video after video. I love the original, but damn this is awesome!
Todd Taylor They need to do a half-time show for a Gators game and the National Championship game. These ladies are tops.

I liked Avicii!
Marvelous cover. Well done on so many fronts. You brought your own magic to this classic. Hats off. Lovely.
Wish these beautiful and talented ladies would record a set of albums of all the cover songs they have ever recorded. Their incredible interpretation of the originals is really outstanding and their haunting harmonies are beyond compare.
I can never get enough of this version, so brilliant and catchy!
Two angels singing,just one amazing performance,I really like this cover:)
Such a fantastic cover. I remember listening to the original when I was about six on my dads radio. Couple of years ago I heard this cover. Simply fantastic🐺👍
Amazingly beautiful.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Talent, edge and grace and all without the controversy and tackiness of many acts today.
OMG indeed - great singing and fantastic backing band also !
Just found this searching covers... I cried! Such an exquiste rendition! 45 year old man in the States no longer united...
Music tells us that there is God!
Hors later found Paddy's cover...exquisite... But these girls kill me softly...
The harmonies are heavenly.
Oh your lord ! They did , and will keep doing it again !!wow
brilliant.. simply brilliant. I lack words strong enough to express the magic that is First aid kit
Can’t believe I’ve never heard before. These sisters are amazing! I’ll be in Germany next year and would love to see them in concert.
I have just discovered a new great band ! Thanks to Yourtube !
I can restart this song a hundred thousand times, right as the host sagt deinem spielen... And get goosebumps at different points each and every restart..

The harmonizing at the end is spot on - damn, they're good!
I love these two girls. Fantastic voices, and understand the music from years ago has influenced them. Pure class.

Can't stop listening to this :)))
Thank You Patrick for all this great content!🙏🦋🌈🌞🌻💜
These girls!! O My god, Love them
Love you ladies !!!💖💗💖💗💖💗💖💗💖
Has Kenny Rodgers seen this? Man these girls are amazing at doing this cover
Thank you Patrik for your continuing sending videos of FAK :) they are the best vocals now comparing with the old ones in the -70 plus -80 ths...
I loved ths song when I was a little girl. Kenny Rogers had such a smooth voice. hehethe movie made him loveable. Good flick
These ladies were excellent, as was the whole episode.
Tack! Lägg gärna till den andra låten också!
Amazing cover. Absolutely my favorite now
Damn !!
Damn !!!
Damn !!!
Priceless
New fan from the US
just beautiful... love this girls
Brilliant and this isn't easy to pull off and you've done it.
Magnificent ladies🙌🏻❤️
voice of an angel
Master performance by two genius 🤘
Klara reminds me of a young Linda Ronstadt. If there were a movie of Linda’s life she could play the part.
Perhaps they should look into the songs of Warren Zevon. They might do them some justice....
@@Voelund That's a great idea for sure.
Ett extra plus till Augustifamiljen som gör ett grymt jobb som husband i På Spåret!
Joakim Ekström Extrapolis?
John Henry Jones Plus skulle d ju vara. Tack!
That's what real music sounds like. 🎶🎶🎶
Amazing singers and band.
At the beginning, I was humming "Can't read my, can't read my poker face"...
its lady gaga - poker face in the beginning :)

Cathy Baumbusch mind blown
Regardless of their accent or elocution, their harmonies are divine.
Just blooming brilliant.
Fist Aid Kit blew this one out of the park. Kenny Loggins would be so proud.
omg they did it again
fz AA
Did you expect anything else but brilliance.
Well l think these two are great... I hope they come to Manchester UK...
They’ve been several times! Last time earlier this year....
In Eric Cartmans voice, "popopo poker face popo poker face, nananana." I love the whole performance especially the intro.
On a warm summer's evening
On a train bound for nowhere
I met up with a gambler
We were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a-starin'
Out the window at the darkness
The boredom overtook us
And he began to speak
He said, "Son, I've made a life
Out of readin' people's faces
And knowin' what the cards were
By the way they held their eyes.
So if you don't mind my sayin'
I can see you're out of aces
For a taste of your whiskey
I'll give you some advice."
So I handed him my bottle
And he drank down my last swallow
Then he bummed a cigarette
And asked me for a light
And the night got deathly quiet
And his face lost all expression
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy,
You gotta learn to play it right.
You got to know when to hold 'em,
Know when to fold 'em,
Know when to walk away,
And know when to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealing's done.
Every gambler knows
That the secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away
And knowin' what to keep.
'Cause every hand's a winner,
And every hand's a loser,
And the best that you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep."
And when he finished speakin'
He turned back toward the window
Crushed out his cigarette
And faded off to sleep
And somewhere in the darkness
The gambler he broke even
And in his final words
I found an ace that I could keep
beautiful voice
I löve this. See that o? Made it Swedish
Beautiful and captivating
This passed the vibe check
I love the 'poker face' intro. It's so apt for this track.
It’s often part of the music quiz questions in this game show - what other song has been weaved in, either as an intro or bridge.
Love it!
Love the harmonizing!!
RIP Kenny Rogers. Long live Kenny Rogers.
yes he picked a fine time to leave us...
Que bueno cover de este grupo musical, excelente.
UNDERBAR KLARHET I RÖSTERNA!!

fruktansvärt bra!!! keep it up.
Magnificent. Taffy. Tenby, Wales.
Kenny Rogers had to of loved this... I want some roasted chicken now... made me think of his old fast food chain in the 90's...
You can tell Johanna took the lead in this, finally
And an absolutely FAKtastic job she did!!!!!👏👏👏
Please cover Bridge over troubled water & the Boxer.
Yess!! I’d be so overwhelmed to hear them sing those songs 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Beautiful
