Nora Foss Al-Jabri (12) singing Anthem - Norske Talenter (Final)

[Norwkeke]

nora er flink :)



[raeram2008]

FYI: Scandinavia consists of f Denmark, Norway and Sweden, as well as Iceland and the Faroe Islands

[daisyw28]

I have no idea what the judges are saying but she is amazing!!!

[Octavice]

Den låter bättre på Svenska. Den är ju skriven av bland annat en svensk. :P

[juicyberriesxx]

@thelilleugle YES Finland is Scandinavia. OK? 0.0

[hece89]

@juicyberriesxx there are three contries in scandinavia norway, sweden and denmark. there are 5 contries in norden and they are norway, sweden, denmark, finland and iceland.

[AlexandraFromBrobeck]

@hece89 No, there are five countries in Scandinavia; Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. There are only three in Norden; Sweden, Denmark and Norway. I should know because I'm swedish. :)

[hece89]

@AlexandraFromBrobeck google it!

[dandyif]

@AlexandraFromBrobeck There are only two countries on the Scandinavian peninsula, so geographically only Norway and Sweden are Scandinavia. However, Denmark is also a part of the generic term "Scandinavia", as all three countries share mostly the same history, culture and language.

The Nordic Countries also includes Iceland and the Faroe Islands (the inhabitants are of Scandinavian decent) and Finland (the most "different" country with a separate language but common history).

[bearousisfree]

All I can say is WOW!!!!!& so so sorrryyy I miss the Ophra show she was on,then again I don't view it but if I had seen an add I wouldent of missed it.

[100mA]

I cry really

[Iamwithyou1000]

That's a beautiful song. I wish I still felt that way about my country...

[mrDobosD]

She has awesome voice, she is also very pretty and cute....just do not ever be like 'stars', e.g. Madonna, MJ, Lady Gaga. Be natural.

[SV3ND3W27]

She sings not even close to perfect but spot on perfect!!! Butt why this song?

[moomoomccheese]

@SV3ND3W27 She's Norwegian...... Its the Anthem.

[Adoowrap]

@moomoomccheese It is not the Norwegian anthem...just so you know. It is from the musical "Chess" the song is "Anthem" Sometimes ignorance is so annoying i have to comment.

[KisGirlX]

AMAZING! Love it.

[TheJanker81]

This"little lady form the video" presented a marvelous rendition of a "piece of historical evidence of greatness", written by two Musical Magicians!

[candypot134]

Norway is kinda similar to English, I mean like some of the words sound kinda the same. (I can speak fluent Norwegian & English).

[HesseJamez]

@candypot134

Same with German...and all further germanic languages.

[DOYOUWANTSOMEPIZZA]

maaan her lil gap was sooooooooo cute!!

[xPeanutbutterxJellyx]

their anthems dead good, ours is terrible God save our queen, no one likes her anyways & it has the most un-singable tune ever

[hazarerkul]

haha, yes, Her father is from IRak ;)

[shannabanana11]

How in the world did she not get first place? What kind of crazy world is this?

[mrestad]

[IX19UT8O]

snutter10: Who won?

[talentlover]

Please watch also Lawrence Gray singing this great song... Just click on the video response here.... Great voice and interpretation... goosebumps each time I hear Lawrence sing!!

[girl070707]

swedish and norwegian are a little like, yes

[loverloverofmusic123]

the judge all the way on the left kinda reminds me of Cory Monteith.

[Lutekbutek]

I wanna be her husband! :)

[123456789poiuytrewqq]

[candycaneify]

She gives me goose bumps, every time I see her it just makes me smile

[salamone79]

[AdoreXyou]

[pyxiekit]

[basketballallweek]

well im sorry no one knows of the musical chess in australia...... get over it

who cares wow i thought it was the anthem big deal

[Dijey93]

she's half from iraq!

[Iamuurme140]

DO the people in the audience understand what she's saying?

[sunglasses82]

ofcourse...

[messedupwax]

wtf?!. . .you think we're stupid ? we learn english from the age of 6, and we understand it clearly. You are the example of ignorance.

[Iamuurme140]

well i'm sorry i don't know everything! i live in america, and here we aren't rude like u...

[messedupwax]

i did not mean to be so angry/rude, caught in a moment and i got a bit worked up. sorry if i was insulting you in any way. But to make the point clear : in norway we speak english basicly on a daily basis since norway is the most " Americanized" country in europe.

[Iamuurme140]

oh well i forgive u then :]

[Norwkeke]

@messedupwax and that is why solberg speak so fantastic and clear english ? perhaps you are the most americanized in norway ._. ^ i cant agree with you ._. , norway = rofl in english :D å synge på engelsk er nukk det verste vi kan gjer :Dmykje lettar for oss å synge på tysk eller for all del finsk....

[messedupwax]

@Norwkeke vell Solberg har fått klar beskjed av sin manager for hans engelsk er så underholdene, ha fakta på bordet før du prøver deg. Greit at du ikke er enig, og tysk er meget likt norsk, men det er nok et overlegent flertall i norge som forstår engelsk enn finsk og tysk. Aner ikke hvor i Norge du er fra, kanskje flertallet snakker finsk? Men resten av norge får engelskundervisning fra barneskolen :) Har aldri prøvd meg på finsk, og kommer ikke til å gjøre det heller :)

[Norwkeke]

@messedupwax får prøve å om formulere :viss du kunne både finsk og engelsk so ville det vert enklare for deg å synge på finsk....alt det andre du skreiv er greit. "ha fakta på bordet før du prøva deg" va jo å ta litt i ? er det ikkje lov å skrive noke uten at andre skal ta heilt av ? vist synst eg at solberg er underholdande pga engelsken , at han har fått beskjed av mannageren endra jo ikkje at han snakke dårlig engelsk public....om han snakker bra engelsk normalt kan ikkje eg vete....

[vaffelboy]

lol. dumme faan xD

[marikraaka]

norwegian and swedish is almost the same language! we understand eachother well!

[kittycat9447]

she should have got first place not third :(

[littlemisschattrbox]

Is Swedish and Norweigien the same language?

[atinamoe]

no!!

[littlemisschattrbox]

Lol it sounds a lot alike

[sluwt]

No :)

[sleneset1]

Most people in Norway speak English...

[cindyme94]

u mean bad english ;P

[virgipopmusical]

Wow, fantastic. 5*****

[AlecJJ1996]

Yes norway spaeak norwegian also they speak fluent english

[kindheartedmuah]

why dont they sing in their own language? why do they have to sing in English? it puzzles me and does the audience understand her can her country speak their language and English too?

[pumpkon]

we learn english in school

[I8yourd0g]

norwegians speak good english :) we learn english at school from 1st or 2nd grade.

[matildaaax]

kindheartedmuah:

most people in Norway can speak english and understand people who speaks english. we learn that in school, so I'm pretty sure the audience understands what she's singing ;)

[Sopranelsker]

matildaaax, and if they don't it doesn't matter because they are of course in the audience because they're able to appreciate vocal capabillities without the need to tie it to a higher meaning. Well, let's at least hope this is the case.

[mnat28]

What are the judges saying to her?? Specially Judges number 2 &3 ??

[jakobls]

1) (Thomas Giertsen) : This was just fantastically great! What a performance! I think it was really impressive, and it's really fascinating to watch, you have reached very far and you are a big talent for being that young.

2) (Mia Gundersen) : You have a good diction and a good tone control, and for being that young you have a great voice. Of course, I can see you have a short way to go regarding having total control and make it totally magic, but that will eventually come.

[mnat28]

Thank you!! :))

[mnat28]

I think maybe Nora's father is middle eastern he looks like that-not sure if in this video or in a diff one...

But Nora was born and being raised in Norway and her mom is norwegian.

[basketballallweek]

oh i thought it was like your countrys athem i was like wtf! lol i get it now

[ghaith4u717]

dear all nora foss al jabri is iraqi very very sure that family name is iraqi

[Flyingtart]

What? I know alot of arab immigrants from different countries with the name Al-"something"

Like Al-Kassas (Lebanese name).

[Flyingtart]

No I was trying to say she is not,

ghaith4u717 said she was Iraqi.

[basketballallweek]

i reccon she looks better with blonde hair

gret singing though

its funny how their anthem is in english?

[kaerdetsomsjker]

It's not OUR anthem, dimwat.

It's from the musical "Chess"

[ingenmansland]

omg! i was so hoping that you were an American becouse everyone knows they know sheit about other countries and everything else that isnt "big in america" but an Australian that dosent know that "anthem" is from the musical chess and thinks the norwegian people have it as their national anthem... pfff you dissapoint me:(

[brianlover92]

Hu kommer til å vokse opp til å bli en veldig pen jente...og for en stemme!

Jeg tviler på at vi har hørt det siste fra henne^^

[HelloPatty2214]

adoro a voz dela ^^

[SingingLobster]

Hun er gør-flink..

[Solli9Ruler]

Drit i det! Stemmen som teller ;)

Dette er faktisk bedre enn orginalen syns eg:D

Stå på Nora =)

[kuhalen]

riktig, riktig,

Det går ann å legge følelser ( "fra hjertet" ) uten å ha vært gjennom det sangen evt. forteller !

[pskdisla]

Det fine med musikk er at tolkingen av den er opp til hver enkelt lytter.

Hva ang. sublime sexbudskap i 'Over the rainbow', så kan vel de aller fleste sanger vinkles dithen om man er 15år og kroppen full av hormoner..

Og tatt i betraktning at hun har vokst opp med Britney Spears o.l. på tv skjermen, så tror jeg ikke disse underliggende hentydningene til sex i hverken Over The Rainbow eller Hallelujah (Du har sagt det samme om den) er av aller verste sort.

[Norasinger312]

Forresten hvis Nora er født og oppvokst i Norge er hun norsk ikke irakisk!

[Norasinger312]

Bare så dere vet det heter jeg Nora. Er 100% norsk og Nora er et ganske typisk norsk navn. Kommer også fra et skuespill!

-Nora

[xwkt]

den er ganske typisk norsk.. ja men det vil vel ikke si at navnet er norsk... det er et arabisk navn og det er mange flere arabiske navn som er ganske typisk norsk

[aa97musicgirl]

does nora have an irish father??? hmm i didnt know that...

[cobrafrh]

til sarmiento1991 hijab er noe du er nøtt til å bruke.

det står ingen plassa i koranen at du skal bruke det.

[cobrafrh]

er ikke noe du er nøtt til å bruke mente jeg :P

[strongarmtwitch]

what are you people saying

[laith4u717]

hun er fra irak ikke norge :D

[sunglasses82]

Nora er født og oppvokst i Norge. Hun har norsk mor og irakisk far.

[sarmiento1991]

hvorfor bruker hun ikke sjal? (hijab) x)

hun ser ikke ut som en araber...

[pwjorgen]

Ja, Nora er jo et typisk Irakisk navn, så ho er nok ikke født og oppvokst i Norge med norsk mor.

By the way, I was in fact being sarcastic

~Edmund Blackadder

[emiliefreak]

Altså, Nora er født og oppvokst i Norge. Og hun har norsk mor. Jeg kjenner henne. D'oh.

[jonasusedtobeabiz]

Hun er faen meg sååååå mye bedre enn Erlend Bratland! Han fortjente ikke seieren.

[sarmiento1991]

ENIG! han vant bare på grunn av at han var emo og homo...han var jo dårlig....:P

[LewDyAsWhoiAm66]

she look so old!a

[aa97musicgirl]

Jeg har alltid sunget, og alle sa at jeg hadde en fin stemme til å være tolv år. Men så hører jeg deg!!!!!!!!! Du er jo liksom "the best"!!!!! jeg hadde aldri greid å komme nærme det der, en gang! Hvordan klarer du det, nora????

[Koenes99]

Why is this girl so gorgeous. Her singing is amazing.

Hey scratch 12367 fuck you.

[LiannLovesMJ]

did she win??!! she's great !!

[darkrosed]

No, Erlend Bratland did.

[simonebambulell]

i olve tuhe music..i love the talent..i love your voice..i love you...you are very very special singer^_^

[scratch12367]

Europe's got talent show puts most of the American Idol contestants to shame. Even the under 16 year olds are stronger singers. Nora is amazing. I love the way she put a her own twists on some where over the rainbow... so what that she did not pronounce rainbow perfectly. Not many Americans speak more than one language and on u tube you can see how much more linguistic the rest of the world is at a young age. here the schools wait till middle school to start languages. What a shame!

[Majjja95]

FRYSNINGER

[vienx2x]

hun er flink og utolig nydelig:D

[jenkaaan]

Rongedals version är grym, men den här är rätt bra

[gummybearluv123]

i love her eyes and her voice

[Esanol]

For å være helt ærlig.

Jeg er ganske så nøye å kritisk av meg når d kommer til sangere, men denne jenta e jo bare helt utrolig. Ho har en sinnsyk kontroll over stemmen sin til å enda være så ung, ho har en utrolig stor å kraftig stemme som også e helt utrolig, og den måten ho er på scenen med hvordan ho står osv. e helt utrolig. mange vet ikke hva de skal gjøre på scenen mens de synger. Uansett om ho bare sto stille så hadde ingen lagt merke tild et, ho blåse en vekk!

[witwebaby]

she has a beautiful voise...but she didn't sing the song very good

[imtyrone]

and you speak english like shit

[wcdv2]

what languages do you speak?

[laith4u717]

norwegian but nora she is iraqi

[kvartalet]

Dette er ikke gamle jenta men når jeg hører henne og cd`n fra chess og Tommy Korbergs låt med samme låt, så får jeg mere frysniger når jeg hører Nora enn Tommy. Jeg synes personlig at hun synger denne låta bedre enn Tommy Korberg.. hun er rå. Og hun er fra Gjøvik. Hjemmbygda mi.

[Biozard89]

Att en jente på den alderen klarer det der skjønner jeg over hode ikke.. Både med stemmen og med engelsk utalen..

[Argar566]

øverlse gjør mester som de sier ;D

[Kjempetriveligkar]

" Utrolig fantastisk! " hahah!;p

[toffen9]

did she win?

[ahv92]

No, she dit not win..

Erlend won...

[kellyclarksonisgreat]

dam them!!!

[chilli8f]

She'll might get to sing on the Oprah show(!!) if she gets enough votes, so..VOTE!;)

[Christa20]

where?

[3arah]

Så flink du er ,,,,,lykke til

[Brennon757]

me gusta longosto

[Martix96]

Ja hun har oppnådd det med at når noen gråter har du klart det! :D

[smileysine]

jeg synes faktisk det er rigtig sejt hun laver der :)

[dolkmord]

Selfølgelig ;)

[dolkmord]

"Når noen gråter, da får du en kjempe god følelse i deg" !!!!!! LOL

[sunglasses82]

Du forsto vel egentlig hva hun mente håper jeg...

[Aellski]

taper

[dolkmord]

tøffing.

[LesaneRecords]

Forstår ikke helt vorfor hun ikke vant. Syngingen hennes er jo himmelsk!

[julsva]

Sykt flink ^^

[Elise08020]

[MelAli123]
