Fever Ray tar emot priset för Årets Dans på P3 Guld-galan i Göteborg. Fever Ray receives the prize for the years best dance artist at "P3 Gold" in Gothenburg.
I know this video is older, and a lot of people think she’s just trying to look “crazy” but this outfit she’s wearing is supposed to spread awareness about women in the Middle East who commonly suffer from having acid poured on their faces, and she’s standing up for them.
Read below: Her name is Karin Dreijer, and she's the singer for both Fever Ray (what has been more like a solo project and is now being "put to sleep") and The Knife. She and the other part of The Knife (Olof Dreijer) are somewhat famous for always wearing masks in interviews and for their not-so-often-live performances. So, this is kind of her/their thing. I dont think they want to expose themselves in media, they just want to do music. She won price for best dance music of the year.
Fever Ray melts sometimes, I don't think she has any control over it. I had tickets to see her in Utrecht once but the show was canceled because she melted. I guess it's sort of like that time Bjork had the cancel an entire leg of her tour in 2006 because she turned to paper for a month.
I heard the "Bjork turns to paper" thing was just a cover story for a more slippery issue. Does she have gills, or doesn't she? Is she a mammal or a ram ventilator? I still couldn't say... If I remember right, this was around the time she and Matthew Barney were on the rocks-just a mess-and her amphibious transmog habits were known to be getting wayyy out of hand-much worse than she showed on film in tour documentary Drawing Restraint 9.
Just so perfect.......what can you say about this woman that even comes close to describing her nuances and deft touches musically and spiritually? Truly awe-some!
you still believe in that bullshit media sold you 10 years ago just to invade Muslim lands?? what about voice of women raped by invaders and men tortured in afghan and iraq?? dont be a hypocrite
foxx3059 What does anything that you wrote have to with Muslim men in the name of Islam throwing acid on girls because they want to go to school? Seriously are you arguing that just because America invaded Afghanistan this makes it OK to throw acid in the faces of girls? America has done a lot of horrible things ... still disfiguring young girls on purpose in the name of religion... lets just say at least America has some standards. PS PendenT DooM, according to TH-cam, is Turkish. Fever Ray, the woman in the video is Swedish. Still, if you want an American to project on... here I am.
started with your comment, Muslim men dont throw acid on women;s its just bullshit west talks about to invade Muslim lands, and it was not only america who invaded, European forces were with them too, your entire comment is invalid and it shows your lack of complete knowledge you just are just headlines reader
foxx3059 YOUR comment shows that you have allowed yourself to become so jaded by headlines that you dont take anything seriously and that is in fact worse.
She set a precedent! From now on, all awards recipients should be masked and on stage for just a minute LOL. I LOVE FEVER RAY. That debut album is a masterpiece. One of my all time favourite albums.
@Jessicanana89 if you are saying Fever Ray is weird i 100% agree. but that's what makes her so special. it's like there's no filler on her songs. they end at perfect ties too, before they ever get dull. and her voice is so perfect, i think she could do a cover of any song and make it sound amazing. I consider her debut solo album to be the best album of 2009.
It's a swedish music gala, the presenter called September, announces that Fever Ray is the best dance act of the year. Surrounding September is the Rongedal-brothers, extremely popular music dudes from Sweden, best known for their party top of the pops-hit: Just a minute.
She's just so far beyond what their minds can encompass they get scared and then get angry because of their own short comings! Always gonna happen with people at the cutting edge of art and philosphy, Im afraid the masses really are ignorant! Amen for those that love and understand!
soy mexicano y como dijo una vez una banda mexicana de rock alternativo ( austin tv) yo quiero q la gente q nos escucha les guste la musica q tocamos y no les gustemos por nuestro aspecto fisico ellos utilizan mascaras , y en verdad pienso q la musica la debes de sentir y no dejarte llevar nada mas por el aspecto visual me encanta la letras de fever ray dice muchas cosas se q toda la gente piensa diferente y respeto ante todo eso.
Karin Elisabeth Dreijer is a Swedish singer-songwriter and record producer. Dreijer was one half of the electronic music duo the Knife, formed with xer brother Olof Dreijer. Xe was previously the vocalist and guitarist of the alternative rock band Honey Is Cool. Dreijer released xer debut solo album under the alias Fever Ray in January 2009. Xer second studio album, Plunge, under the same alias, was released in October 2017.
I saw this on the soup and realized they showed Promoe. hahaha SICK. I just saw them at the Viper Room in Los Angeles a couple of months ago. LOOPTROOP ROCKERS!!!!!!!
I agree with you they are totally different and I wish Lady GaGa would acknowledge those who inspired her which is obviously Fever Ray and other European acts. Love karin true performance art at it's finest.
es una protesta bastante directa a la represion k tiene la mujer en los paises islamicos cn el burca y a las pobrecitas k le exan el acido en la cara...lo k nose xk la gente se rie y aplaude...en fin..este es el mundo onde vivimos...
I know, I do listen to Nephew, Justice and a couple of other European bands. Those are just my picks of 2009. I love Kasabian, they have a very psychedelic 60s' sound to them. And I do love my 60's.
¿y si no hubiera ganado? Se hubiera ido a casa con la duda de si la cosa habría tenido gracia o no. Pensad en la cantidad de futbolistas que se lanzan al campo con una dedicatoria debajo de la camiseta pero luego no meten gol.
@Phazio yea I agree -- I live in the US and haven't seen the whole show but I did see the clip of Staygold, which I thought was really cool. Amazing how much good music coming out of Sverige! Little Dragon, Movits . . . Snook the list goes on
Fever Ray, she has been round for longer than Lady Gaga....... She is multi famous in her home country. Although, people will have heard of Gaga first, which makes fever ray the imitation.
I can't disagree with anything she said.
This is basically me delivering a presentation to my English class..
protesting the violence against women in Afghanistan, including acid attacks
FİNALLY a good comment.
u win!
wonderful! I wondered why her face looked melted
i keep coming back to this, this is so iconic
We need more unique ppl like this, the world would be boring if we were all the same!!
I like most of her music!
I know this video is older, and a lot of people think she’s just trying to look “crazy” but this outfit she’s wearing is supposed to spread awareness about women in the Middle East who commonly suffer from having acid poured on their faces, and she’s standing up for them.
Best thanks speech ever

karin is an amazing person. Her style, themes, and art are much deeper than many have eyes to see.
BEST acceptance speech ever! no doubt.. she's a legend
oscar winners and their speeches could learn a lot from karin
A true performance artist

That debut album is a masterpiece. One of my all time favourite albums.
I am breathless...
All this projects they have been working on was music for the sake of music..
They deserve all the praise they have got for it.
Very shocking. The guys at the end had my exact reaction - delight at being made to feel so suddenly uncomfortable. Thank you for posting.
Fever Ray is just amazing you cannot say her music is bad. possibly the perfect artist ever???
Fortfarande det coolaste jag sett på TV
Fever Ray has been long before that Gaga
God I love her, so original and walks to the beat of her own drum
Best thank you speech EVER
Fever Ray will always be Fever Ray. Intriguing and mysterious.
Vilken planet har du bott på?
She's back? Awesome!
Loved the Knife and her stuff was awesome, too.
@Jessicanana89 if you are saying Fever Ray is weird i 100% agree. but that's what makes her so special. it's like there's no filler on her songs. they end at perfect ties too, before they ever get dull. and her voice is so perfect, i think she could do a cover of any song and make it sound amazing.

What's the music??? I like it
What is the song playing as she walks to the stage?? I know its one of her songs just not wich one
She's just cool and integrity personified. Love it!
What year was this?
can someone please explain? i am really confused.
Interested in what this is about, wouldn't mind a little translation, what award did the person win?
Does anyone know the song that was playing when she walked up to get the award?
It's a swedish music gala, the presenter called September, announces that Fever Ray is the best dance act of the year. Surrounding September is the Rongedal-brothers, extremely popular music dudes from Sweden, best known for their party top of the pops-hit: Just a minute.
Really smart, interesting, unique, what an awesome artist of our time! I love her!
I adore her. It's good to know I am not the only strange person in the world.
THIS WAS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is perfect. fever ray/the knife is evolution in music. love this art.
Can someone please transelate what she just said? And I'm confused. Is this the sister from The Knife as well? She has her own solo music as well?
She's just so far beyond what their minds can encompass they get scared and then get angry because of their own short comings! Always gonna happen with people at the cutting edge of art and philosphy, Im afraid the masses really are ignorant! Amen for those that love and understand!

look up ''when i grow up'' and say she is not a geniuse she is amazing in the world of art and new sounds...
What is the statement?
I'm glad the Red Crayon finally got the recognition it deserved.
Is that Anders from In Flames at 1:05?
wow! what it was on her face?
¿y si no hubiera ganado? Se hubiera ido a casa con la duda de si la cosa habría tenido gracia o no. Pensad en la cantidad de futbolistas que se lanzan al campo con una dedicatoria debajo de la camiseta pero luego no meten gol.
Is that Jah-nathan Laroquette at about 1:10?
@Phazio
yea I agree -- I live in the US and haven't seen the whole show but I did see the clip of Staygold, which I thought was really cool. Amazing how much good music coming out of Sverige! Little Dragon, Movits . . . Snook the list goes on

So true, I couldn't have put it better myself.
Fever Ray, she has been round for longer than Lady Gaga....... She is multi famous in her home country. Although, people will have heard of Gaga first, which makes fever ray the imitation.
Yes, it's Promoe in the crowd :)
I like how she looked straight into the camera!

She's amazing.

The artwork WAS done by Burns. Good call. Love weird.
Le ha ido bien a Karin (Fever Ray), esperando ahora algo con The Knife. Buen año fue para mis oídos.
Depois de todo esse tempo você ainda está vivo?
