"Release Me" by Swedish band "Oh Laura"

[SocialisOfBohemia]

I live i the city where the SAAB factory was located...I'm telling you, it's a regional catastrophy. 10000 jobs are lost, and our city will die.

[leljala]

R.I.P Saab. Sad indeed.

[Dlgitalph33r]

I bet this is Victor Müllers ringtone, lol

R.I.P Saab

[jovanuk]

Thumbs up if end of SAAB brought you here :(

[martinbond1993]

I got here because of SAAB...

sutch a shame.

[TheTimpa92]

[hethat]

[hethat]

Our small country Sweden have a lot of talent and very skilled artist. Proud to be Swedish<3

[NittyGrittyRed]

Amazing voice. Born to sing country music.

[SongsForToki]

[heliummannen]

2.25 ----> goosebumps

[vasterhaninge]

RELEASE MEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Mewe67]

A very good song and band. I also like the cover release me with Caroline, Malin & Philip :-)

[viligence]

i think this is great material for a dubstep mix.

[EmiLo1337]

@viligence Release me - then drop the bass

[Tove300]

Soooo good song!! <3

[FluroLyndallKate]

i love this song, we were using it in dance class, now im addictedd

[Reluctant6]

I heard this song in Sweden when I came across from England to visit the family summer house.

Wow its a bit special. Shame it never made it the UK.

[almooseb]

@Reluctant6 its in a uk advert so it kinda did

[Reluctant6]

@almooseb Never heard it. I understand it was a Saab advert? We dont get may Saab adverts in the UK.

[almooseb]

@Reluctant6 yeh i live in London and the advert is how i came to know of oh laura, and this album. think it must have been a couple years ago at least.

[Reluctant6]

@almooseb Oh, I will keep a look out for it. The advert hasnt made it to Yorkshire yet... mind you, there isnt a lot of us up here that can afford a new Saab right now!

[Ctuchik]

@Reluctant6 It's not written exclusively for SAAB, but yes they did use it.

[miriammaul]

the 113 that dislikes, must be tonedeaf!

[schinkelmeyer]

The lyrics are written by a copywriter at a advertising company in sweden and was specifically made for the saab commercial.

[chipmunkforever2]

@schinkelmeyer And, its a great song.

[schinkelmeyer]

@chipmunkforever2 no doubt

[zenonzkita]

thanks :)



[clemency111]

That woman's voice is the most expressive sound I've ever heard come out of a human body.

[toomcaatoo]

Still the greatest song ever...



[erikasofia2]

g...g...g... LOVE IT OwO

[zenonzkita]

I am sure I heard it in some movie or series, help me to remember!!!! I'm not sure if one Californication episode didn't end with this song, hot sure tho...

[Treble0henson]

@zenonzkita it was in a ford advert

[TheSoffkudde]

@Treble0henson No? :S It was for Saab!

[Treble0henson]

@TheSoffkudde close enough.. all i remember that it was a mint advert!

[Tossekurt]

Such a beautifull song!! emotional and strong.. it allways gets me carried away.

[Tinydestiny2]

I like the crack in her voice when she sings release me near the end for some reason

[rhapsodiaognia3004]

This song makes me relaxed.

[zamusicza]

simply gorgeous

[jockemustafa]

haha undra hur många runt om i världen som klickat fel, 1,5 miljoner visningar på denna är inte realistiskt, och med det menar jag inte att den är dålig

[Reluctant6]

Just back from Sweden. Saw this song on a talent show over there (dansbandkempen???). Love it.

[SIMONDUKEN]

saab is a sweedish car??omg...i thought it was german..

[SuperFantasticFox]

@SIMONDUKEN Was. It's bankrupt now, I think.

[TNorberg]

@SuperFantasticFox No, it's not. It's alive and well :)

[Slapbass19]

will everyone just stop commenting cars and saab xD

[jsquire5pa]

@Slapbass19 well they sold it out so im afraid you cant really complain .. despite her being a whore at the capitalist gang-bang id still do her nonetheless

[Joheke87]

Saab cars and fighter jets R.I.P

[muzambarian]

ALL HAIL SAAB!!!

[afia04]

thank you guys, just keep it on. You're so fantastic. I adore the arrangement and the voice of that little angel

[angelreaderlaura]

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your voice and art.

[ellechen98]

I am the wilderness locked in a cage I am a growing force you kept in place I am a tree reaching for the sun Please don't hold me down Please don't hold me down I am a rolling wave without the motion A glass of water longing for the ocean I am an asphalt flower breaking free but you keep stopping me Release me Release me I am the rain that's coming down on you That you shielded yourself from with a roof I am the fire burning desperately but you're controlling me Release me Release me

[VILLEMO07]

Mmmmmm:)

[DaisyChains1987]

I love this song! First heard it on an advert for cars and it took me ages to find out the title :P

[psiakiciurka]

,,,,ulubionaaaaa!!!

[StopUnumNow]

Such a great song! 5*

Many thanks for posting

[ampersandtay]

I have the CD and love it. But this is the best video, how I love those old French black and white mood movies, colour never manages to give this sort of rendering.

I nenver get tired of watching it. Hard to imagine that she is, in fact, a beautiful blonde!

[s3050879]

R.I.P Saab... sniffle, I'll always remember the convertable....

[TNorberg]

@s3050879 Dude, SAAB is still alive and well.

[angusta01]

piękne brzmienie, piękny wokal, piękny tekst:):)

[kossamajken]

OMG! what a voice!

[Bysheon]

Fuck, this would have been fantastic in Swedish. Hennes röst skulle göra sig så djävla bra på svenska..

[cubimongoloid]

I don't know why they didn't release any album any more. So sad.

It seems like ppl keen more on popularity then pure "organic" beauty like this.

The album took me times time times to finish it

[annikaerf]

@cubimongoloid She -Frida Öhrn (Örn=eagle in Swedish) - is now in aband called Cookies 'n' Beans.

[RegandLou]

what a peacfull voice

[TheEltev]

Really like this song, have thought it needs another 'screaming' verse... Would have been ver Janice Joplin

[cptmaj]

@TheEltev agreed although i dont like to compare

[StopUnumNow]

I love this song! 10*

Many thanks for posting

[HotTopicIsNotPunkRoK]

Beautiful x

[Masziah]

Release Me K. O. from Kalisz ^ ^

[indiefjant]

Funny that every video discussion on Youtube eventually turns into a debate about politics and/or World War 2, regardless of the content of the video.

[UhClaire]

@indiefjant Or Saab :)

[HTDM2]

@indiefjant thats cause we're humans! xD

[taiwankiss]

@indiefjant Same here, in Chinese we always argue about national sovereignty and history dispute no matter the subject is concerned no not.

[glaaachs]

@indiefjant or justin bieber...

[alichalam]

great song

[rub60ale]

Japp, Oh Laura ÄR ett svenskt band. Älskar Fridas röst.

[nonamer88]

02:24 I shivered, beautiful.

[georgiebean8]

beautiful song :D

[Handelsbankens]

Men lägg ner och tjata om SAAB. Deras bilar var det ju uppenbarligen ingen som ville köpa. Ska vi fortsätta tillverka bilar i Trollhättan och ställa dem på lager? Tänk efter före.

[Ctuchik]

Fel, Saab gick, om inte bra, så i alla fall hyggligt innan GM köpte upp dom och använde märket som test platformar för deras "viktigare" märken som Opel och Ford.. när Saab 9000 kom ut började märket gå riktigt bra jämfört med innan, sen kom GM och drog ner märket i skiten igen.

[Svanberg123]

Musicwrecker

go back to Soviet if u want the goverment to own the comapnies (we know how good it went with Soviet) SAAB is finished, nothing last forever.

[masksnoppen92]

Skyll inte Saabs nergång på socialism! dra åt helvete kapitalistsvin!

[hejjjjjjje]

ehm, va har låten me SAAB och gö ? ;o

[buzzy035]

@hejjjjjjje

Den var med i en reklamfilm för SAAB....

[hejjjjjjje]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa just de :)

[Anonymfittunge]

Eftersom att saab nu gått i konkurs och skall stängas ner, menar dom med låten att människor runt i världen skall hjälpa saab att stå på fötter igen. Dock stänger dom saab för gott nu.

[CilitBang321]

@Anonymfittunge

vad dillar du om? reklamen/låten gjordes långt innan de börja spekulera om nedstängning

[Anonymfittunge]

Låten gjordes långt innan, men inte reklamen.

[CilitBang321]

nope, inte den heller

[Anonymfittunge]

År tvåtusensju, började spekulationerna om nerläggning utav saab.

[HTDM2]

@hejjjjjjje absolut ingenting bara att den var i deras reklam

[Musicwrecker]

Barack Obama bought 60% of GM and saved 'em. Why can't our government buy SAAB then?

This would not have happend if the Socialists had the power in Sweden. But instead; we have a balded man with no humanity or empathy at all. I'm am SO ashamed to be Swedish with him as a leader.

Fredrik Reinfeldt can go 'n' f**k himself and Maud Olofsson as well. Also: F**k you GM for being such jerks to us.

[buzzy035]

OMG, you have to face the facts man. SAAB has only made profit 2 years in their history.....2 years!!! It has nothing to do with left or right to support SAAB. It is a big shame that SAAB is a lost chapter, but there´s a different between GM and SAAB. So please think before you speak next time......

[Hohlederschatten]

@buzzy035 You really think there is a difference between the two? the only difference is that SAAB makes cars that people actually want and love.

Remember when the US taxpayers had to bail out GM - same thing!

[lamz0rs]

Shouln't you blame the Swedish population? I mean, it's our own fault for electing such leaders when we had better choices.

[Ctuchik]

you really think (S) would have done it differently? they only say that because they want to be elected next period. i vote for them either way but even i can see that their statements about that is bullcrap.

[gonnakickyouinthefac]

* nyser *

[LoggiWolf]

* ryser *

[dascotton]

Utterly stunning.

[jonno222]

R.I.P. Saab

[Jeezzper]

@jonno222 What do u mean? Saab is stil alive(:

[Ctuchik]

@Jeezzper Its only alive by name, but Saab is truly dead.

[seeis]

@jonno222 Saab will never die!!! Saab 900 for life!!

[kanedanyc]

@jonno222

hahahaha

[dearmalika]

What a beautiful song!

[gabriellasofiee]

Normaly i hate swedish accents, when it´s very obvious, but if you complain about this one..its redicolous. She shouldn´t hide that she´s swedish, if we swedes try to sound 100 % british/american it just gets silly..Great song btw! :)

[Donjohnas]

Whats wrong with the Swedish accents?

[Doderhultarn89]

perfect song. jazzy

[MrPonjevic]

LOVE IT!!!!

[TheStifler1992]

Your mother???? What does she have to do with Stand down lol.

The officers tells the soldier to stand down in a battle not ur mom haha wtf xD

[ruennis]

If he`d have said lie down then maybe. :)

[mrsweco]

beautiful

[TheStifler1992]

Nothing, was just bored haha

[MaiXuanAi]

c'est très bien!

[ruennis]

c`est magnifique, je t`accorrd.

[TheStifler1992]

Stand down!!!

[leecouly]

Amazing song

[Cesse1234]

Fan va jag älskar den jag sjöng med låtennär jagvar liten<3 det var min favorit låt<3<3

[nosssrep]

My brother played with the singer in the band she played in before "Oh Laura" :).

The song's really good :D.

[krystike]

When i am sad-this music makes me feel good. Great song!

[scott090919]

when im happy this music makes me feel sad

[noodlePancake]

there is no better reason to listen to music. Well done, I hope this song continues to make u happy. Thats what its there for : )

[dennan97]

Love it :)

[WoodyHillman]

Otrolig sångerska. Jag var på ett musikläger förra sommaren och då var Frida där och lärde ut hur hon använde sin röst på bästa sätt, underbart!

[cms3371]

Amazing lyrics. Up there with the best.

[NinnaElina]

Najs or wat löv it otroligt broende frammkallande

[ninatricot]

lol visste inte att de va svenskar hshahaa

älskar denna låteeen

[Leogona]

I looove this song <3

[Tfhaninia]

Tyvärr så upptäckte ja denns låt vid saab- reklamen... Men leta länge efter artisten. Utomerdentlig röst

[shonie03]

Love this song... a very strong and powerful emotional expression of another person's controlling attempt at dominating another.

[urVIDisSHITE]

defiently :)

[perfuzz]

I like the fact that singers from Sweden don't try to hide there accent.

[riordan32]

sarcasm?

[perfuzz]

No, why?

[fleshapple]

Well in this case it works out but mostly I can't stand Swedish accent. (From sweden myself)

[perfuzz]

How about The Model by Kraftwerk? You've got to love it..? I speak Swedish as well and I kind of like Swedish accent in pop.

[DundelionChild]

I totally agree with you, it's so annoying!

[Ctuchik]

thats because no matter how hard we try, we cant hide it :)

[Nephalen]

jäss vi kann

[4leavingtochange]

why would she hide her accent ? I think it works beautifully on this song. I'm not a huge fan of swedish accents in songs usually but I do think it works here.

[smithy2401]

What a beautiful lady...with a beautiful voice...

[Sweden80Here]

Den här låten gav mig ankfötter ... eller nej... gåshud menar jag!

[m30wnzu]

hahahahahahahahhahahahahaah
