Incroyable !! This is incredible !!! Ces Suédoises en sont venues aux soeurs McGarrigle par Emmylou Harris, qui est une grande amie des McGarrigle. These two Swedish ladies came upon the McGarrigle sisters through Emmylou Harris who is a great friend of the McGarrigle sisters. It's such a happiness to see that Kate and Anna's songs are still played around....C'est un vrai bonheur de voir que les chansons de Kate et Anna sont encore chantées......Merci....Thank you...
Fantastic! I'm a fan of First Aid Kit since 2014 ( Stay Gold) and the McGarrigle sisters since 1980. Je suis du Québec, de Montréal, francophone. Le seul endroit au monde ou cette chanson pouvait être composée, chantée en français par des anglophones...et maintenant réinterprétée par des Suédoises!
First Aid Kit is incredibile ! The last time I listened to it I was 10 years old :) Amazing ! A good interpretation of Les Soeurs McGarrigle. Vous êtes très talentueuses First Aid Kit ❤
I am 64 years old and was 12 when The Beatles hit and changed the whole landscape musically. I wish I was 12 again, because these two girls are The Beatles of this generation, creating their own unique sound based on what they have learned from their musical heroes. Damn they are so good it's scary.
This sound in this video is pretty much a faithful rendition of a 1976 song except the intro which is from a 1993 song. To me it doesn't seem like they put their own spin on it.
I really like First Aid Kit and the songs which they choose to cover. I knew that I had heard this song in the distant past, and that was confirmed when I saw that the song was originally sung by my fellow Canadians, the McGarrigle sisters. Check out the First Aid Kit concert covering Leonard Cohen. Extremely well done.
Their voices are even stronger, and I love the repertoire they are building! This arrangement is great, excellent trumpeter/leader, marvelous ending. Clearly Klara and Johanna are dedicated listeners as well as performers, and they and their team have found some beauties to cover..
@@dexterbeef1132 There is a clip from Montreal when they do "Heart lika a wheel". 5 k views on that clip is a joke, one of my favorit FAK clip. it's short, quality not so good .
Great twist, great performance. They can do anything, ABBA, McGarrigles, Emmylou, Fleetwood Mac. And of course there own music. As they say in French,...chapeau
This has more likes than the McGarrigle's video. I hope everyone who liked it also listened to the other. This is well done, and a completely different vibe. Well done. I guess I grew up with the dour version, and like it a bit better. Sometimes, change is good...
One of my favourite songs of all time, and you have done it very very well. Hats off to the bass player here, too, because the original bass parts (by Tony Levin!) are pretty unorthodox, and inconspicuously brilliant nonetheless. I love you for picking this song.
Wow these girls sound as good as they look. A great band behind them and what a super compliment to the McGarrigles. That First Aid Kit name leaves a lot to be desired though.
@ Richard Wallace : a very good thing! This song is quintessentially Canadian, it has to be sung with a Montréal accent, and the girls do it perfectly. They sound exactly like Québec natives, it's absolutely amazing! They also replicate flawlessly the distinctive pronunciation of the McGarrigle sisters, mixing a hint of Anglo-Canadian intonation with old-fashioned countryside French-Canadian rolled 'r's (not too difficult, it's just like standard Swedish "r"). Just one small error: at 1:05 they say standard French "froi(d)" instead of colloquial Canadian French "frett'". No big deal.
hagst27 Yes, le « frett » en bas de trente en dessous de zéro, je ne me rappelais pas de ce détail. Merci de me l’avoir fait remarquer! N’empêche que je suis épatée que ces belles chansons du folklore des sœurs Kate and Anna McGarrigle soient rendues en Suède!! Excellente performance! Étant native de Montréal, ma mère faisait jouer ce disque très, très souvent. Ça me rappelle de très beaux souvenirs! Les chanteuses ont en plus la même intonation que les sœurs McGarrigle!! Épatant!
Fantastic! My only criticism would be that they need to work on the blend with the harmonies. Kate and Anna blended like a machine. It was so satisfying to listen to
Much as I like First Aid Kit, in this case I prefer the Kate and Anna McGarrigle original. Particularly the 1975 album version - its more sparse arrangement makes it more intense somehow. That said, I hope First Aid Kit keep looking to add McGarrigle sister material to their repertoire, as it suits their style and voices well.
Just starting to discover First Aid Kit, but I am wondering whether it is kind of their "signature" to let the band play a "fake" intro? I also noticed it in another performance.
To my ears, they don't sound particularly Quebecois. It sounds more like Metropolitan French as pronounced (sung) by someone whose native language is a Germanic language, and again to my ears, that's how Quebecois French sounds. Don't get me wrong, it's probably because Metropolitan French's orthography and phonology have very little to do with one another, and I'd hazard a guess that Quebecois French sounds more like 17th century French. But in the way they pronounce "vingt", for example, as opposed to how Kate & Anna pronounce it, is very Metropolitan: the way we get taught in school in Europe.
C'est tellement bon de les entendre parler Français. So nice to hear them speaking(singing) french. Their prononciations are good, may be easier while singing, but still.
@@SeverityOne in what way is their accent strange? Its not a French French accent, but then again they're Canadians, and they grew up in a village in Quebec - about a mile outside if Montreal . Their accent is a rural Quebecan accent and not that weird, if you exclude the fact that theu're voice are very unique in and of themselves regardless of language, but I suppose if you assume they would sound like frenchmen then it's strange.
@@countrymusicandcher8593 Well, it sounds weird when you're used to French or perhaps Walloon accent . It's almost like it's French pronounced by a North American native English speaker. It struck me when I saw a video of someone in Lac-Mégantic (my apologies if I remembered the name incorrectly) and the way the filmer said "oh non, le train". In metropolitan French, it sounds like "treh", but in Quebequois French pretty much like in English.
@@SeverityOne Severity One Yeah I can see what you mean. I have thought about that at times, too, and I guess without something to compare it too you have a point in it having a very "english" sound to it. But If you for example listen to "Porte en arriere" with them and Emmylou Harris - who really is an english native that is in no way bilingular - you can really hear the diffrence in an American attempting French (though she does it quiet well) and a Quebecan speaking their native language (or one of them, as the McGarrigle sisters had a bilingular heritage with a Fremch-Canadian mother and English speaking father). They're similar accents but far from the same.
Fabulous performance and a great tribute to The McGarrigles.
Augustifamiljen was the best band in the show På spåret. They accompany First Aid Kit perfectly, making a stunning cover performance!
Tout simplement Bravo les filles ! Votre interprétation et votre français sont impeccable!
Juste un plaisir de vous écouter 👍😜😜

Wooo. Je suis Québécois et leur accent est vraiment surprenante., à part le mot "hockey" hahaha Super belle reprise!!
First Aid Kit is incredibile ! The last time I listened to it I was 10 years old :) Amazing ! A good interpretation of Les Soeurs McGarrigle.
Vous êtes très talentueuses First Aid Kit ❤
I don’t care what language they sing, their voices are pure. This is great to listen to.
Comme ça.. on appelle encore ça la langue française 😅
This bursts the box open. Magical on all levels
Great tribute to Kate and Anna McGarrigle from sisters to sisters - infectious.
Tribute but still not original...
Oh, my God, this is WONDERFUL! I love this song so much, and First Aid Kit just nailed it! Amazing! ❤️
Merci beaucoup à vous deux !!! C'est toujours un plaisir de vous écouter ... et là ,en plus, en français !!! BRAVO et MERCI !!! :-)
One year ago and i have seen this clip 200 Times, wow fantastic version. Love you girls
Can't understand a word of this, but it brings tears to this old man's eyes. Their voices have power beyond language.
@marit Thanks I think I enjoy it more not understanding the words, the song is so beautiful but I have not heard then sang anything I didn't like.
The original was by Kate & Anna McGarrigle

Just plain lovely, Klara and Johanna!
J'ai le soufle coupé, vive Kate et Anna et quelle fabuleuse interprétation de First Aid Kit bravo
It’s... perfect!... Just... how is it possible?
this is just class - great tradition in such young people - Well done to them and their parents !
Wow! Just wow! et MERCI. Normalement je commente en anglais "à l'internationale" mais là je ne sais pas. Quel hommage. Bouleversant.

incroyable ! very famous folk song in quebec (french canada) and in french, very impressive interpretation by smart sweetish singers !
These girls are just amazing..!
This is amazing! The best versiion in my opinion, and the band are great too! What a find!
Très beau ! From Québec , Canada
Thanks for posting. Amazing that music is able to cross the ocean and be discovered by a broader range of music fans.
Alors là je suis superbement impressionnée!♥ Well done girls and thank you for this beautiful gift :)
Great twist, great performance. They can do anything, ABBA, McGarrigles, Emmylou, Fleetwood Mac. And of course there own music. As they say in French,...chapeau
I discovered a little bit of Crash Test Dummies at the beginning. Very nicely done!
Its correct, this clip is from a swedish gameshow .
Ce sont des suédoises ? Incroyable de chanter en français avec l'accent de quebec. Bravo et respect mesdames.
Wi
Pourquoi? L'original est québécois. Qu'est-ce-qu'elles feraient à chanter en français métropolitain?
@@kiakandai282 je dis juste bravo à ces filles et je ne critique certainement pas ce magnifique accent québécois.
They are quite talented, these girls. And I love the song.
effectivement, c'est assez impressionant ! ce sont des suédoises qui imitent à la perfection l'accent québécois anglo !
Wow, these wonderful gals and their band pay some serious respect to the legendary Macgarrigles. I am impressed ! ( you should be too)
Spot on! Me and my siblings grew up with the MaGargles"" and this is like revisiting my yoof.. Brilliant!!
i am impressed and pleased,it sounds perfect.
Couldn't agree more these girls are a sheer delight. Like Kate and Anna the purity and power in their harmony is mind blowing.
The best of the best, hands down :)
Fabulous. Great version, too.

Ser detta minst en gång om dagen, som medicin för själen! Längtar till den 19/6 på Gröna Lund . ÄLSKAR ER! Ser er på Öland 16/6 också !
Wonderful rendition.
Allmost as good as the original ! Love it !
Tack för att du lade upp denna! Kul att höra tjejerna sjunga på franska. Och Johanna Söderberg är vacker som en dag. :)
jag tycker Klara är vacker hon med
Seperbement exécuté ! Bravo !
You play a different sound that makes well to our ear. I like so much!
super version
Åh vad jag önskar att den fanns på Spotify!
These girls could sing the proverbial phone book and would be mesmerized.
One of my favourite songs of all time, and you have done it very very well.
Hats off to the bass player here, too, because the original bass parts (by Tony Levin!) are pretty unorthodox, and inconspicuously brilliant nonetheless.
I love you for picking this song.
yes, great song but it's Levin who really puts it over the top on the original. Like how this version starts with a tribute to Crash Test Dummies.
And how about Steve Gadd’s drumming on the original! Levin& Gadd= magic
Ja faktiskt,det stämmer,hur bra som helst !
Well done. Top performance nice with intro crash test dummies. Tribute to sisters Mcgarrigle
Bravo! Très réussi
Tack!
Which Canadians should we cover here, Kate and Anna McGarrigle, or the Crash Test Dummies? First Aid Kit: Both!
BRAVO!!
Is there anything they can't sing? Nice change of pace to hear Johanna sing lead a bit more here. Also the Crash Test Dummies intro strangely worked.
Johanna looks stunning here.
Wow these girls sound as good as they look. A great band behind them and what a super compliment to the McGarrigles. That First Aid Kit name leaves a lot to be desired though.
spotify tack??
Apart from falling in love with this version... excuse me - is that a Philicorda organ I see there..??
Thank you.
Weirdly they have the slightly nasal /strident quebec accent spot on
is that a good thing or not?
Accent très ressemblant en chanson à celui de Montréal!!
@@richardwallace6313 As a Quebecer I love it!! Lachez pas!!

Oh yeah! Tres bien!!
Merci!
super
a very charming interpretation. Still, Kate and Anna's original version is unbeatable.
Music Brothers ....
❣❤❣❤❣❤❣❤❣
Bravo :)
The intro is actually not from that song, instead it's the refrain from the song "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm" (1993) by the band "Crash Test Dummies".
That was the meaning with the whole game show, from which this clip was taken. "what two songs ..."
Ingen kommer undan politiken - Marie Bergman
En blek kopia av orginalet....

Is there anyting these sisters can't play?
Apparently not ❤
Positive vibes. Until you want to clap and dance.
Rufus should see this ❤
Why do they start off with a bit of Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm (or whatever it's called) by the Crash Test Dummies?
"Guess the intro" is part of the game show, that's why.
And because it’s a great intro for this song...... perfect start
@@rickardnilsson2776 And the Crash Test Dummies is a Canadian Group
Lovely version - strange start though, just about to type uuum, wrong song!
This song is part of the quiz
SPOILER:
It's Crash Test Dummies' Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm............
you can tell homeboy used to play the drums in a Ska band hahahah
That is the old drummer from "The Ark"
Deras pappa var gitarrist i Lolita Pop....
JAAA kan man säga något annan än SKITBRA som allt mina systrar gör:)
Thank you for escaping the restrictions of You Tube. Not quite the same as the earthy McGarrigles
Just starting to discover First Aid Kit, but I am wondering whether it is kind of their "signature" to let the band play a "fake" intro? I also noticed it in another performance.
"Guess-the-intro" is part of this quiz show. It is not what FAK normally do.
Weird madness to troll all the Crash Test Dummies fans with that intro
This is a geography game show and this is a musical question. Name the two songs and the geographical area is of course Canada.
Jeeeezzz
Gör det bara inte för sött!

well, they are swedish
@@reallivebluescat Yes, but some people claim that they nailed the Quebecois accent, which I think is a little wishful thinking.
A great tribute but I'm sorry - this song can't be covered.
Great group, crap name; what about 'The Söderbergs'?
I disagree. The music is healing for the soul :)
Great group,great name.You just don´t understand .
originalen er mye bedre ikke så masete
C'est tellement bon de les entendre parler Français. So nice to hear them speaking(singing) french. Their prononciations are good, may be easier while singing, but still.
