IMPORTANT! Can you help? Do you watch reaction videos of other performers on KZread? Next time you visit one of those, could you make a suggestion to the user to make a reaction of one of Sissel's songs? A link to you favourite Sissel-video can also be helpful. By doing this we can make more people aware of Sissel, supporting her and help people discover her unique voice. She deserves more recognition on KZread. You can write something like this "Have you heard of the Norwegian singer Sissel? She has a very unique voice. Could you please react to one of her songs? I can recommend the song called "..." etc." This would be very helpful. Thank you for your support!

I give people I know the links to her songs. I tell people but am only greeted by blank looks and no words. Sadly, many people want to be entertained and do not wish to work, which is what you have to do to listen and understand when Sissel sings, as it is with my favourite singer Roy Orbison or anyone else in that sphere. I have silence when I give people links to my own songs. Best of luck with all the hard work you do.

it is hard to believe that a singer as talented, beautiful, and adorable as Sissel would even need any publicity....but if she does, how sad our world is. to me, Sissel has become the standard by which I measure all other female singers, thus surpassing even Karen Carpenter in this regard. and this is aside from the fact that i have totally fallen in love with Sissel...and what man wouldn't, given what a perfect angel that she so obviously is?

One of the greatest un-known singers in the world. She sounds good singing anything. The world is missing out on her voice.

Some evenings are my Sissel evenings. I sit in my chair and listen to her sing until bedtime. She brings pleasure to me when I.hear her sing.

Norwegian people should be proud of having such a wonderful singer

BEAUTIFUL LADY , MAGNIFICENT VOICE , A TREASURE !!!!

Carol and I have been fans for years. Sissel's music never gets old, we never get tired of it. She has a voice that will be enjoyed and remembered for many years to come. Always on the look out for a new "performance".

Ok, we all no that Sissel is an incredibly Beautiful Woman, with an Incredibly Beautiful voice. But the way she says together in this song just tickles the liven daylights out of me. And I have several albums of Roy Orbison's, So it also tickles the liven daylights out of me to hear her sing this song. I wish she would sing more of his songs. thank you so much Sissel Kyrkjebo for all of your music videos. I play this one 10 or 12 times a day. More Please.

She defies nature, as she ages her voice maintains it's magnificence and she becomes more beautiful.

From the first moment & I heard her sing & saw her beautiful face & wonderful personality, she was my favorite singer of all time. It's just terrible I never heard of her until last year. She is the best!

What a performance. Watch it everyday.

She sings this so beautifully! Her range is 4+ octaves - like Roy Orbison, who wrote tge song. How we miss him!

Sissel speaks to the soul. Her expressive eyes and unabashed direct gaze just have us rapt, with of course those effortless soul-rending notes. As near to heaven as could be

She, with that voice, could sing the phone book and sound fantastic. What a talent.

She is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life, and has the voice to match. She's incredible.

She IS incredible, no doubt about that! I've been listening to her for 30 years but never heard this rendition. And she has the ALTO range to pull this off with that low, hauntingly beautiful side of her voice as well. Not many Soprano's can get down this low in range. You'll notice this on display when she hums the opening of Titanic. NO one could pull that off like Sissel.

"In Dreams" is my favourite Roy Orbison tune and one of my all-time favourites as well. This song is almost impossible to cover, and this cover by Sissel is the best I have heard. Bravo !!

Phenomenal! A soprano who can sing a whole song as low as that, just so she can hit that high note at the end! Someone like this should be vastly better known than some of the talent-free "performers" who are household names.

she has TREMENDOUS range. Listen to her here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qaqGu7GFp5i9d6g.html and how about the humming at the opening of the movie"Titanic"? that is absolutely haunting & yeah that is Sissel, NOT Celine Dion. I don't think she has Sissel's range. she IS incredible and I am so happy that I found her years ago.

A Roy Orbison classic, with a great cover by Tom Jones in the 1960s, a wonderful song, but Sissel's version is truly wonderful. What a fabulous singer she is.

wow a Big O song! she has the LOW range AND of course the HIGH range. AND she's also singing it in ENGLISH! I missed this one... I've been listening to her for at least 25 years but yeah, missed this one. What a tribute to Roy she like Roy is pure class...

Sissel can do justice to any song that was ever transposed!!

she is absolutly amazing i have loved to see and hear Sissel singing for about 15 years and she just gets better wow

Not only beautiful, but what a voice.

Very few people can cover Roy's songs, this one in particular due to the power and range needed. Invariably the best covers are by female singers who have Roy's range in the higher scales! This is about the best cover I've heard of this song, especially as it's live. A handicap you have of course, is that few people can pronounce your last name!

Exquisite! Most Extraordinary! Sissel in an International Treasure! Love to all from rural Mississippi, USA!

No one lays it on the audience quite like Sissel. She's amazing.

I’m in love with her singing and never want her to stop. Yes, I am selfish.

She always knows just how to deliver each song to perfection.

An amazing rendition! I had goosebumps from her angelic voice

She puts her own expressive feelings behind the words of the song she obviously personally loves thereby enhancing the enjoyment of it. Most singers with good to great voices haven't learned that or simply feel their voice alone is all that matters.

Love this rendition of Roy Orbison's classic! Thanx!

Really love this. Sissel did it beautifully!

Her buildup in this song is just perfection... especially up to 1:49 and onward... what a voice!

Sissel Puts a new magic into the Roys big hit.

I don’t think Sissel can sing any song that doesn’t come from her soul amazing

What an extraordinary performance.

It always makes me shiver,when she goes up with her voice at "... just before the dawn...". Beautiful !

Have no words to describe such phenomena! Wonderful performance.

I click on anything that has her name on because I never got disappointed even once. But /like this song/ I think sometime that I do not know a song yet. So wrong! I already listened many times yet it hits me like Don Juan hits the virgin...Just to make me discover in the comments that I have been here before. Sad? NO! Fantastic!❓🉐💖❗

Since I first heard her voice several months ago I have watched every video I can find. From her teen years through the present, she has such a captivating voice and presence, a beauty and grace, and a fun sense of humor. This is by far my favorite. She has always been beautiful but I see her as radiant, her voice full, and although the words are sad...she seems extremely happy and at ease with life. I start my day with this video. Thanks for the upload.

Great rendition from a beautiful woman❤❤

Una bella voce che coglie tutta la dolcezza del brano di Roy. Dolcissimo pure l'accompagnamento orchestrale. Grazie

Her voice is still as extraordinarily wonderful now as it was 30 years ago. Hopefully, some day she will do a world tour since some of us don't get to Norway very often.

That is just OUTSTANDING. I don't think I have ever heard a better version than this. As someone else said, I had goosebumps listening to this. I don't know words to describe it; maybe heaven. Thank you, yours is a special talent.

Sister makes the composition her own. BRAVO

I was supprised to hear how well Sissel hit the essence of the sing, the emotional affect in it. This was one of my favorites of Roy Orbison back then and still is. I know the song word by word because I played it so many times in my youth. Never thought someone could match his version, but Sissel does it here live - amazingly. I like both versions equally and I have become a fan of both performers. I love Sissels voice and stage presence that's why I youtube her more than I would play her studio recordings.

A brilliant version of this song.

Woww I never heard of this lady b4 ,but omg what a beautiful powerful voice absolutely top class 10/10

I would like to hear her do Crying, another of Roy’s great hits.

Una voz extraordinaria y además...¡¡¡GUAPÍSIMA!!!.

Holy Toledo Superman this woman has an incredible voice. Bravo!

Well Sissel you've done it ! What a wonderful joy to listening to this song when you can bring out all the emotions of the tune by your beautifully crystal clear voice of an angel. Roy sings very well and even wrote this song, but comparing to your way of performing the song, his sounds rather mechanical.

Simply AMAZING!

A voice touched by God.

This singer has re-educated me, a music snob, and opened me up to all sorts of song. She is not a snob nor a diva (thank goodness). I was fortunate to meet with her recently and we chatted easily. She was so gracious, easy to be with, yet has a powerful presence. I'll be sorry if and when she stops singing.

Love it!

The Norwegian Dream meets the Texas Troubadour with a song written and recorded before she was born. Very nice match.

as always I get happy when seeing and hearing Sissel sing------thank you

Wow, I have goosebumps. Superb cover, Roy would be impressed.

Just finished 10 straight 'listens' while surfing.#11 starting now!!!!!!

I am sure Roy would have been honored to hear her sing this. Wow.
