Icelandic Lullaby, Vokuro

[xxdork3]

Beautiful voice :)

[paliss06]

I love this song... this made me want to learn icelandic, and i'm learning now :)

[ArcAngellErzengell]

Do you know what period this lullaby came from?

Example: 16th century or...?

Very entertaining and pretty voice. :)

[fnegrin]

it is 20th century, by jórun Viðar. made famous by Björk

[ArcAngellErzengell]

I can not find either song by either band/artist. (Which I do like Björk :), I have not heard of the other artist.)

Can you help me find a link so I may listen to the song by those people? Thanks in advance.

[fnegrin]

well, jorun viðar is an 80 year old composer, I doubt he has videos on youtube, and he is not a singer anyway. As for bjork, if you just search for bjork and vokuro here on youtube you will get many videos of her singing it live and in the studio.

[ahauntingmelody]

Wow, missed all of this. Thanks for helping fnegrin!

[dominedeuscuius]

Wow, amazing, very very cool!

Vokuro is beautiful song.

[rpeturs]

waah,, thats nothing like icelandic sorry,, it's like you are from faero island.. I'm from iceland so it's sounds little strange to me. But it was okey :D

If you have ever heard of the Faero Islands, you should try to hear how they talk because you sound like them.

[HevTorAsu]

The rolling r is really hard to do for me as well. You're quite good at it I must say, please tell me how!

[anelymper]

Rate it with 5 stars,and add it to your favourites,the girl is amazing!

[Koriousama]

If you listen carefully you can hear Björk singing, and I don't mean that as an insult if you take it that way. I think you have an amazing voice, almost as good as Björk :P

[rexi23]

[helgidude]

It's a Bjork song.

[lowfiwhiteguy]

@ahauntingmelody

Hoppípolla :)

[ahauntingmelody]

Dont think I know that one, but maybe something Lamb or Telepopmusik? Hmmm let me think...

[lowfiwhiteguy]

@ahauntingmelody

Just search it on YouTube.. It's pretty chilled out, you'd like it.

[Sessly]

You have VERY nice voice! and the pronunciations are ten times better than I could have done, lol.

[vokuro88]

hey i like that song.

[luxyferum]

just BEAUTIFUL

[whyisthismyhead]

Hej, you've got a very nice voice! Vökuró is one of the coolest songs on Medúlla :)

For the most part your pronounciation isn't too different from the cd.

[LeatherBee]

I love this song. And you sing well :D
