Awesome! Even Alexander didn't know he was going to meet Obama -- you must be psychic! Hahahaha :D

You shouldve left out the Cat Stevens overdub. Too much noise happening.

[lizzysutube]

Would that the WORLD could ride that Peace Train....

[dizzyblond78]

[TheVidomina]

Vivat Америка! С другого берега ты чудом кажешься и выглядишь Ок!!)))

[freddieonhorseback]

Awesome!!!  =]

[SuperBerenika]

Я очень счастлива, что в США очень любят Александра Рыбака. Мы в России, в Украине, в Беларуси тоже очень сильно его любим. Алекс обьединяет нас всех. Vivat Alex! Bravo Alex! :)

Obama will receive Nobel Peace Prize December 10, in a formal ceremonie during the day.

The actual Nobel Peace Prize concert is held the next evening, December 11, in which Alexander Rybak will perform together with international artists. Unfortunately, this year the Prize winner will not be able to be the guest of honor at the concert, which every year is held to celebrate the winner with music, speaches and shows on stage.

[alexandersbff]

Takk! I have corrected the description now -- you Norwegians know much more about the details than we do -- wish I could come to Oslo for the concert!  I guess Alexander will simply have to come to the White House to meet President Obama in person! :D

[musicloveroninternet]

@alexandersbff

Værsågod :) A lot of people mix up these things, also people in Norway. But it is two different days and two different celebrations. It is a great honor for Alexander to be invited to perform at the concert, even dough Obaba does not have the time to be there. Some rumours says perhaps Michelle (and the kids) will be at the concert, but they probably get home together with Obama.. It is two great days anyway ;)

[evafastov]

This is very very interesting ,patriotiic and romantic video at the same time!Alex is my favourite singer too!We should wait meeteng with him 10 December together!

[themoviemaniac68]

I love the music and both the honorees...best wishes and congratulations. =)

[NtheHills]

Marvelous news! It should be a memorable event indeed! :)

[yeehah82]

This is remarkable in every way, hooray!!!

Peace, y'all!

Danny

[smileydaily]

Amazing! I am so proud of both of them!

[edinarocks]

President Obama is so deserving (even though totally humble about it). My very first time voting, I voted for him! Alexander, do yourself proud for all the wonderful honorees! We love you too! :D

[rofleveryday]

Hahahaha ... the best of America meets the best of Europe. How cool is that?

[lizzysutube]

Barack Obama and Alexander Rybak FTW! Bravo!!!!

[glambertgirl1990]

I love Obama!!!! The Norwegian Nobel Committee could not have picked a better representative -- Alex rocks!!!!

[musiccity360]

Wonderful! I love the song and the meaning -- peace, peace, peace to all -- and congrats to President Obama and Alexander Rybak! =)

[sdsurferbabe]

I do hope Alexander will get to meet our wonderful President personally! :D

[katieskindaweird]

What a remarkable ceremony it will be -- two of my heroes also! I would LOVE to see Alexander perform at the White House!!! :)

[time4miracles]

WOW!!!!  Fantastic!!!

[laughinghorse63]

If they gave prizes for healthcare, Obama would have won that one too! I celebrate for both of them and look forward to seeing the Concert here on youtube! :D

Blessings,

Kate

[sfhumoresque]

Obama and Alexander rock!!!

Peace, love and great music,

Ann

[karenloveskradam]

What a lovely tribute to both men. Obama is the first President I voted for and if I were European, I would have voted for Alexander in ESC! I hope someone takes great videos of the Nobel Concert. :)))

[hollysdancing]

Great song, great video, great men being honored -- win, win, win!!! :)

[fiddlerontheroof10]

Awesome event, awesome men, this is sure to be a great evening! And maybe Alex will perform at the White House someday -- who knows? Obama has great taste in music! :D

[9dvorak]

The Nobel Concerts are always outstanding, and Alex is the perfect artist to honor our beloved President!

[amandacloud2009]

I am so glad we now have a President who is committed to communication, negotiation and goodwill with our neighbors on this very small planet! I love Alexander and know he will deliver an awesome performance! Cheers!

[LambertGlowbug]

Nice job on this one. I am sure Norway will be bursting with excitement!

[bergengirl88]

What an amazing night that will be in Oslo! I am so very happy for both President Obama and Alexander! :D
