[madisontheawesome]

0:25 to 0:28 .....

Class ;)

Damn Bernhoft is so sexy!

Keep the great music flowing and don't lose the soul vibe <3

[WinningSidekick]

Suddenly I feel a surge of pride for my country... We must be doing something right if this guy's Norwegian.

[playfull1969]

devine 

[sharona4608]

awesome!!!!

[TequilaKing17]

yawn..

[dreamshooter90]

@TequilaKing17 *fart...

[97supernintendo]

Now i don't understand how some singers in america get famous when they can't even play one instrument. This man can play a million! :D

[takeofftheblues]

how many instruments can this cat play? he's blowing me away.

[bones1111a]

Stay away from the US Jarle, we will somehow ruin you.

[takeofftheblues]

@bones1111a so sad, but oh so true.

[honorguitar25]

this song reminds me of the old DAG stuff...love it!!

[NeedToBreathe]

Jarle - Norges nye Utenriksminister

[TT120R]

Music they it was meant to be !

[TT120R]

@TT120R

The way it was meant to be.........

[PoppyAmelia93]

Multi talented genius :D

[zodiacdawable]

Fallen in love all over again!!! Can't get enough of Jarle x

[PerKristian93]

You just realised that this is the guy from Span..

[applekeys18]

2:44 and 2:56 - kill that organ!!!......Jarle is absolutely a freak of nature he is just to damn good for me to handle! come to the US Jarle

[LeMarokainmusic]

I love it so much really so amazing song <3



[dillweedst]

i love this guy so much!!!!!! talent out the wazooooo

[Miztammik]

love it.glad he was on the ellen ,or i would of neva of found out bout this guy wooow .he needs to come to the UK!!

[schleppenheimer]

It's nice to see that other people are cycling through this guy's videos just like I have been for about a week. Just bought "Solidarity Breaks" from Amazon. Want to make sure more music like this keeps coming from Bernhoft...

[desaing]

He's the norwegian maxwell!!!

[necee1959]

I love everything this guy does. I've been watching every video he has for over an hour now I 'm addicted. 

[YuriJr236]

If Freddie Mercury is a 10/10 in terms of musical talent, then Bernhoft is like a 9.9/10.

[dreamshooter90]

@YuriJr236 If you ask me they are just as good.

[THEMsSheldon]

Sexy...



[anniebrownie12345]

it' pretty cool to find an incredible artist from Norway because in my opinion, the only new breaking artists are either coming from the u.s(and aren't all very good) or Romania.It's great to have a change

[SteffaneySloan]

I watched him on the Ellen Show the other day and had to find him. So far I love everything Ive watched. If you are not watching these videos you are crazy. Even if this isn't your type of music it is still fantastic to see the things he can do.

[DoctorWhoFreaken]

all i have to say to this is WAUW!!

[MrDryass88]

oldie but goodie! :D

[schleppenheimer]

This is the best guy -- the most talent -- I have seen in YEARS! Thank heavens the music world finally has somebody like this around. Thank you NORWAY!!!

[Mw2LoverNumber01]

@schleppenheimer No problem ;)

[Deetay1000]

@ MrsJammin... yeah me too, (Australia) saw him on Ellen and thought Wooow he's so talented, then found all these songs and his website... hope he now gets some worldwide recognition. Thanks Ellen and Thanks very very much Jarle... get those CD's selling, keep up the good work! ...wow!

[MrsJamminOldies]

I can't believe he's been around all this time and the U.S. is sooooo behind. He is just amazing. I've been watching every video I can. I can't seem to get enough. Saw him on Ellen today and he was just so personable. Hope we can hear more of him here in the U.S.

[itschristinelove]

@MrsJamminOldies

We're behind because we're force-fed artists with less talent who make more money for bigger companies. It takes time to clear all that clutter out and find artists like this.:)

[williammanser]

@williammanser I take it back. I have listened to many other tracks and yeah its very US influenced. Though I agree that no one is doing this anymore in the US. That cat swayed me. He is bringing it from Norway strong :) Glad someone is doing it.

[cnclark68]

This dude is GENIUS ! I can't wait to buy his album from iTunes !

[Juliecoolie18]

11 people have not been exposed to culture...and have awful taste.

[ArmyScout509th]

MAN, If I could do that shit, I would rule the WORLD, and have panties falling OFF!

[bublaju27]

ohhh my! this guy is amazing!! makes me love norway even more!! <3!!!

[sammcqueeney]

11 people don't have the funk.

[Djenticles]

@sammcqueeney Judging by his talent and creativity, Jarle makes himself a funky shake about every hour...

[MrFifaVids]

This is soooo great! Loving it!

[Choppinsumwood]

I think its safe to say Bernhoft is Norway's answer to Jamie Liddell. I love both of them though. REAL music! =)

[ARVienna]

Unglaublich!

[Lloydskasisal]

Was für ein Talent! Großartig!!!

[Geroose]

Since one hour i have watched nearly every video of him and have to say.....WHY THE HELL did i not know his name until today!!! soo freaking talented.....norway might not have plenty of outstanding and well known musicians (at least as far i know)...but for shure , with bernhoft they got one of the most talented and best singers of today...

[chilimagik]

Reminds me of Jamiroquai. I approve :D

[jazzmeister22]

fuck yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh



[MorganaKC]

Jarle Bernhoft and Streetlight are featured on indie music blog girlwithabluestocking.wordpres­s com

[kim32oslo]

thumbs up ... :-)

[thatpoptartt]

Bernhoft is why I love Norwegians. <3

[svettsofa]

At Erik og Kris, Gabrielle, A-lee og annet herk selger bedre enn denna fyren, sier litt om hvor mye markedsføring har å si i musikkbransjen.

[anita1051]

You won't believe that my teacher told me about this guy. And he's AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[heibanansuppe]

i dont like his hair. i like the hair he has now

[bebba51]

He is a STAR !!!!!!!

[FirshermansFriend]

Multimusikk Geni!

[omfgtroller]

0:56 must be j(i)zz in my pants

[Ci3lO]

*dances*

[AmigoFiell]

hey this is really good!

[Jmacsexy]

Aldri om jeg skal klage på tv - reklame igjen. Eller frem til de fjerner Bernhoft reklamen, selvsagt.

[TorbNORWAY212]

Herregud, hørte først om Jarle Bernhoft med sin "Cmon Talk" i dag tidlig. Men denne har jo gått i lang tid. All den gode musikken eg har gått glipp av!!

[ValliumDrummer11]

Uploaded to Ipod and started listening to this constantly! This guy is amazing.

[nomorestoriestoday]

replayyy

[Ragequit1zero]

det e dumt at de gode artiser ikke blir lagt merke till på grunn av alle de med dårlig musikk Som justin bieber og de andre .

[ThaAwesomeGamerz]

cool

[S0liren]

Dette er det man kaller talent!

[Vorzak7]

SPAN! WHOOOOO!!!

[dreamshooter90]

@Vorzak7 Oia. Du også. :-)

[1gnatle]

He is the good JB

[Jezuzlovesu737]

@1gnatle Jack Black is good, as well, tho.

[vuhoang2k4]

Simple, beautiful, perfect, a true musician. Bravo.

[Loopa94]

It sounds like something D'angelo could have written..

Bernohft is a great musician!

[MathiasRis]

Been a fan since he played in Span ! legendary band

[thronaesMusic]

Norway FTW

[JaffaPwns]

proud to be norwegian when i hear this song!

[hhggfs]

I like the little dance he does when he claps. 1:29

[kaleddis]

Discovery of the day :)

Great sound, great voice !

[Detjen14]

I am so impressed!! Are you a secret that we (US) does not know about!! You are untapped!!! Come to the ATL!!!!!!

[SofieMunk]

Waaau! I want to marry this guy! . Or at least his music ;)

[coolcandoor]

Huhuhuuu mi zenélés van itt hee? :D

[gingermoose]

Z Z Z Z Z Z Z* YAWN* probably nice if you want to fall asleep. Just dont drive while listening...

[FidLity]

BOY! Question is what that guy CAN'T do. HE CAN EVEN CLAP!

Well. That voice is pure awesomeness. He's unbelievably awesome. Like, really. And inspirational.

[larissarfreitas]

A cada 4 ou 5 anos eu descubro um som que me encanta extraordinariamente. Há mtos anos atrás foi Dire Straits. Depois, Eric Clapton, passando por Jamiroquai em seguida. Jarle Bernhoft está, no mínimo, do lado desses caras, especialmente deste último. Somzera!

[SocraticRaver]

ahh man thats a nice bass... or at the very least looks like a refinished gibson 64-65

[GuderMegagod]

wooowww!!!! :D LOVE IT!! <3



[jabez36]

He is just an instrument whore...XO

[DarkAngelBabey]

liked his vocals better when he was in span, but i love him anyways... 

[vapene]

Esse cara é o melhor que eu já vi na vida!

[TheFjordhammer]

logged on just to like this song. amazing

[timmy841212]

Nice funky shit.

[jokkii]

Sounds like Maroon5 but even better!

[Qyute]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE HIM!

[Jackathan818]

Jamiroquai esque noice

[dumbluck123]

can someone please answer if he's black or white? he looks like a white guy but his name and his, oh so amazing voice tell me otherwise

[initzuriel]

@dumbluck123 He is white.

"Jarle" is a rather normal Norwegian male name.



[KRAFTY71]

@dumbluck123 RU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW?! IGNORANT COMMENTS LIKE THAT IS Y THERE' WAR AND HATE IN THE WORLD... DUMBLUCK123 IS SIMPLY PUT A DUMB ASS!!!

[dumbluck123]

@KRAFTY71 im sorry if that sounded ignorant but honestly i doubt a comment like mine has started wars. He has curly hair and his complexion is somewhat darker then a white person, and also his name and the way he sings brought me to assume he was at least half white and half black. i just hope next time someone asks a question like how i did, you don't attempt to start a troll war with them like a douche bag and just inform them of their ignorance and answer the question.

[KRAFTY71]

@dumbluck123 I accept your apology and since you would like for me to inform you here some information. Questioning and assuming that something or someone is as you put it black or white simply because of what in your stereotypical mind has pre-programmed. Not all "white" have bone straight hair and lily white skin. Nor should they. And not all or in my experience "black" people have dark skin and I have never met a black person named Jarel. ASSUMPTIONS AND IGNORANCE START WAR. NAM., IRAQ ETC...

[dumbluck123]

@KRAFTY71 didn't irag start over an oil demand?

[KRAFTY71]

@dumbluck123 No it didn't. Read a book. The "ASSUMPTION" was weapons of mass destruction. I'm not here to give lessons on current events I love Jarle Bernhoft's music and would love to just enjoy it. If you have any further comments feel free to leave them on my homepage. Have a Great day!

[FarFromFaded]

@KRAFTY71  What don't you comprehend here? He asked a legitimate question, he was simply curious. In no way did I interpret that to be a racist comment, nor did most others I am sure. By the way, KRAFTY711, learn to type.

[KRAFTY71]

@FarFromFaded WHAT U DID IS WHAT MOST PEOPLE DO. U MAKE ASSUMPTIONS. THE QUESTION WAS NEITHER VALID OR LEGITIMATE UNLESS UR A RACIST. WHICH BTW I NEVER CALLED DUMBLUCK123 A RACIEST. U INTERPRETED IT THAT WAY AND CHOOSE TO SPEAK FOR MOST OF THE 115,874 OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE VIEWED THIS VIDEO. OPEN UR EYES AND UR MIND AND IF U CHOOSE 2 RESPOND 2 ME AGAIN LEARN MY NAME IT'S NOT KRAFTY711... I GUESS I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO NEEDS TYPING LESSONS. NOW COMPREHEND THAT!!!

[FarFromFaded]

SORRI KRAFTY11 I MADE ACIDENT ASSUMTION. YOU IMPLYED THAT HIS QUESTYION WAS RACIEST, SO DAT IS HOW I TOOK IET. How do you like reading that shit? My mind is open, KRAFTY71. Also I'm not sure what you're even asking me to comprehend, the fact that you never openly called him a "racist" maybe? I did not intentionally mean to upset you with my assumption, but to me your first comment implied that dumbluck's comment was racist. If that wasn't the case, whoops.

[KRAFTY71]

@FarFromFaded WHOOPS IS EXACTLY RIGHT! UR COMPREHENSION IS LESS THAN APPEALING AND U DIDN'T UPSET ME. THAT EMOTION IS SAVED 4 PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING 2 ME. IT SEEMS THAT I AM THE ONE UPSETTING U SINCE U CHOOSE 2 ENTER N2 A CONVERSATION THAT HAD NOTHING 2 DO WITH U. AND AS 4 MY 1ST COMMENT. IT WASN'T 2U AND I DIDN'T IMPLY ANYTHING I WAS VERY DIRECT AS I ALWAYS AM, IN SAYING IT WAS IGNORANT. AS I NOW BELIEVE THE SAME OF YOU!!! RU COMPREHENDING THAT?

[eXJonSnow]

@KRAFTY71 get off your high horse

[MrNuclease]

How is this guy not number 1 in every English speaking country these days? I'm just glad the internet showed me the awesomeness that is Jarle Bernhoft.

[woodbear84]

@MrNuclease

Hey! He previously played in a band called Span. You can search them up here on Youtube,,,

Oh, and btw! Search for this also: Jarle Bernhoft - choices

That's his latest single! It's awesome!!!

[thedivakeva]

@MrNuclease Yeah tell me about it...I just caught wind of him from the comments section of another video "Sometimes" by Bilal. Go check that out if you haven't already. LOVE Bilal.

[SoDanelle2009]

@thedivakeva I did exactly too, thank God I searched him up. What a talent!!!!

[FrasiliasPower]

@MrNuclease Then you better check out his newer songs! Cmon Talk, Good Intentions, Saty With me and last but not least, Choices!

[laksegutta]

what can i say........ heaven !

And then some. LOVE IT

[abennia]

@bille77 what?...he died?

[kwelts]

@abennia he didnt. its just a troll.

[AddictiveRhythm]

Steely dan?!

But Justin Timberlake singing...no not really.

Just so coool.

[RaynardES]

he cool

[TheLigia200]

that sublime music

[TheLigia200]

A.W.E.S.O.M.E

[TheLigia200]

same one have the lyrics of this music?

[solensdatter2]

EN av de beste - uten tvil..:)

[MickeyCh85]

WHAT : A : VOICE !!!

I'm blown away to say the least.

Should Mr. Bernhoft be coming to London, I'm definitely going to see it.

A.W.E.S.O.M.E

[ausmais]

A.W.E.S.O.M.E VOICE and MUSICIAN!!!

Same with Germany! Love to see this genius live

[moumine1970]

The best thing I've heard since Lewis Taylor!!! Just amazing! World look out for him!!

[KlandestinoRec]

totally man crush, damn!

[dreamshooter90]

Liked him in SPAN but this is good also. =)

[alathion]

Kurt Nilsen isn't bad, but he's no Jarle Bernhoft. Jarle has an amazing voice and is definetly the second best singer in Norway after Sivert Høyem who is one of the best in the world.

[Fredrick997]

@alathion hahahahahaha

[pokerpunk43]

wow....what an Incredible Musician

[757LeftSeat]

All day long and not get tired. That's when you know you have a hit! Boom!

[757LeftSeat]

I keep listening to this, realizing just how funky this 'White Boy' truly is no doubt.  This is what I will call: Neofunk. Jarle, should be HUGE in the States. This forces you to realize how low the music industry in the U.S. has become (I am a U.S. Citizen).

This is also what was meant by the lyrics to another funk driven song: "Play that funky music White Boy!"

He reminds me of the Male version of Teena Marie, who was another very serious 'White Girl' with an original funky sound. Cool!

[labi76]

he is awesome singer!:)

[ThePStylezz]

He was an awesome singer when he was still in Span,

n he's even more awesome on his own.

[MrHollywooddreamer]

yesterday i was on a joe cocker concert and he was the ''opening band'', too. he was very awesome. it is better to hear him live than in a studio track, but it is also good!

[Mongo2k]

You can also check out 'span' - it's a bit more.. rock-ish music than this, but it's awesome to see him in both span and as a solo artist imho..

I only wish that he would be more known, he's such a great artist

[LittleSlipknotFreak]

How are these KORG Keys called, he's using?

[solartron]

@LittleSlipknotFreak

What you SEE is 'KORG' - what you can HEAR must be HAMMOND ...

[bassobeats]

@solartron sounds like hes got a high pass filter on it as well

[numerotr3s]

some1 has the lyrics from this song?

can't find them anywhere...

[wookyoftheyear]

@numerotr3s Pieced this together, think it's mostly right:

Shoved inside a container when 15

Shipped aboard a boat bound for Seville

Recycled by the members of the crew now

She ends up on the streets of downtown Oslo

And defiant and proud

She stands her ground at night

(Somebody will give in)

And I don’t know how she feels

But I know it ain’t right

[wookyoftheyear]

@wookyoftheyear Treacherous streetlights, con for the blinders

During the dark sides of the rule of supply and demand

I’ll never be streetwise, but signs of the times I know

Will reveal themselves in beastly shapes

Swaying hips and smiles from ivory teeth

But there is a darker story underneath--and you say

She sure enough makes this part of town look good now

Is it her professional face that appeals most to you?

And I swallow hard, play the game get through the night

(Get it on now)

[dagheidsolholm]

What a funky guy! I`ve become addicted!

[horekar]

love this song, his best one in my opinion :)

[badongism]

Yowza...he's moved a loooong way from his days fronting Span. Still good though.

[matthewcollins57]

This guy is the funkiest Norwegian since Edward Grieg!

Awesome talent...

[SigveUSA]

just brilliant!

[sophiiie]

Does anyone know where to download songs of him?

I searched everywhere and I couldn't find anything!

And really want to find it cause he is great! :)

[LiberoMan]

spotify:album:4rsURgGYEbBDINtm­xedh6B

;D

[sophiiie]

Spotify is not on in Holland yet, but thanks anyway :)

[richwn]

I feel cheated that I only discovered this guy now! Just bought his album and I hope to GAWD that he puts out more! His voice is like hot butter!

[drummerbecca]

Where did you buy his album? I can't find it anywhere :(
