@Oldfaithfullyours: There is no comparing the two. They belong to different times and styles. Each of them has something special to bring to the song.
It's kind of nice to listen to her voice when it was under development. Even though it's too airy, somewhere wheeze and a touch of falsetto. Since then she has gotten a full body to her voice and managed to puch enough power down to the base tone.
This is how most singers perform, at their best, but Sissel kept on working to get better, each and every day. She was not born into the worlds best singer. She's NOT a natural born singer, and this is an evidence.
wyrose. Sorry to disagree even at 16 yrs old Sissel did not sing like that , other recordings made in her 'early years' have a remarkable different tone and clarity , I heard her sing in Bergen during '87' ( not the Diamond/Bergman song) and Sissel's voice did not sound like this 'recording' I know a friend of hers who lives in Nesttun so wil ask for confirmation and I'll let you know.
This is Sissel's singing. She was very small when she sang this one, so her voice here is quite differnet to her other performances. You can find this song in her album "De Beste".
This is a beautiful version. I have never heard Sissel sing anything that I didn't like. However I will always have a soft spot in my heart for the duet of this song at the Grammy's that Neil Diamond and Barbra Streisand did. But Sissel is the only singer that I have ever heard that comes close to the beauty in that. God Bless them all.
very soothing voice

Not surprisingly, I believe she has Babs beat on this one - and that's saying a lot, because Ms Steisand has a huge talent. —Tom
