Jarle Bernhoft - Fly Away (Live @ Lydverket)

[halldormarteinsson]

He should do something with Beardyman, I'd love to see that

[SHING91]

norwegian guy + black man soul

[wefysan58]

jarle .. you one bad muther. damn, a white norwegian that got the blues sooooo bad. so bad... so bad

[chuck752]

Puts a fuckin smile on my face EVERYTIME I watch it .... Jarle, you're THE man !

[KINGLUXOR]

THIS MAN IS A GENIUS

[SuperKingjazz]

I would take him home too....not to sleep with him, but for a jam ;)

[Mrkangaimroo]

Reminds me of Reggie Watts!

[aidschans]

@Mrkangaimroo Right on!!!

[JoeSchmo1510]

isn't he gay?

[Skoog13]

@JoeSchmo1510 No, he's got a wife. I'll bet you are more gay than Jarle.

[JoeSchmo1510]

@Skoog13 oh nice. i wasnt sure since his right is is pierced. you're probably right, now that i know he is straight, that voice makes me question my own sexuality. haha

[Road2Perfection]

@JoeSchmo1510 I've never understood why right equals gay.

all the 35 year olds at my job have had their right pierced, I think it's just some "new" teen thing if you ask me.

I can rarely identify a gay person in norway, I know petrol heads that absolutely doesnt care about fassion that is gay, it is probably that "fab 5" type of people stand more out and cause a image to how "gay" people look for non gay people.

or it's just norway that is odd again.

[bat968]

He can do everything with his feet but turn the volume off

[Krowmanikof]

A GOD IS BORN !!!

[Skoog13]

@TheLostODST 117 046 passed out during this performance and woke up at the hospital, without getting the chance to like the video.

[jaba983]

your a liar i see 1 chair

[Tyraldie]

@jaba983 Well hello there :)

For those of you who don't see two chairs, take a peak at 1:10 - clear view of them

[SuperFishers]

never seen such good lead on an acoustic, as well as the player to be able to sing, beat box, percuss and whatever else

[SuperFishers]

teach me!

[S3ymoreButts]

I quit Skyrim to be like this guy.

[Partibanification]

Respect! 

[juergenkronshage]

Sensationell, einfach genial - ich bin sprachlos!

[rastapasta64]

So im assuming Jarle had his way with every single one of the women in the audience that night. Like the boss that he is

[karolinejosefine]

Magician <3

[texmartiniz]

This guy is crazy - I love it!

[MrFazergutt]

Detta er helt king kong!! Supert&deilig. Enormt MYE bedre en listepop fra rihanna ( gud som jeg hater den dritten der egentlig)

[Nyaugusztus]

Hát én annyira imádom ezt az embert <3

[brettorrmusic]

So inspired.

I've been really hating playing solo shows but now I see how it can be done!

Champion performer!

[ethanolindex]

[jodypacknett]

Yummy in EVERY respect!!! Artistic, passion, soul, looks, humor and kindness. YUMMY!! I'd like to fill that space in his heart!!!

[shafizal]

[ZOMBIELANDakaUSA]

@shafizal

shit, this dude here has some serious soul, maybe Motown should pick him up, then again...no

[sist2812]

5:15 WTF? :O

[shosor]

Han är ett musikaliskt geni !! grymt bra :)

[TurqouiseTapioca]

He's sooo talented. And soooo HOTTT :P

[kfresher]

5 people had ear plugs in when they watched this!

[necee1959]

For someone that's moved on th3giv3r you sure do post allot about him.And yes I have listened to live, on Ellen, you tube, studio, and CD, still he probably has more talent in his farts than you have in all your musical talent. Just shut up and dance.

[th3giv3r]

No, I'm not interested. And this topic is getting old. You go ahead and listen to those precious CDs. I'm moving on.

[156Arne]

he sounds so much like the early terence trent d'arby, in my opinion.

[cdturnbull]

how can aannnyyyoooneeee dislike this?

[melziev]

All I can say is Wow.  Great artist.

[MzKay100]

luv him

[MrBasskriss]

nirk :D

[divits83]

This makes me feel like such a hack. Excuse me while I smash all my guitars into my amps and cut out my vocal chords with a dull blade...

[IveBenCrazy]

@divits83 well, to be fair, this iiiis what he does for a living. ;]  Just keep singing and playing. It's a great thing.

[dillweedst]

i love it

[superkulmedkniv25]

Faen så fett

[anita22seline]

Wow :O

[jeremyrjames]

4 people have no musical taste or appreciation for talent AT ALL!!

[olepagal]

This is fantastic! What a musician! I have listened to Jarle a lot now and he impress me. Norway must be so proud!

[Tyraldie]

And did anyone else other than me notice he is sitting on 2 chairs?

[lionelshala]

@Tyraldie 2 chairs, 2 guitars, 2 microfones, 2 AMAZING!

[bonesmaan]

@Tyraldie that is because his awesomness wouldn't fit on a single one ;)

[Tyraldie]

Are we talking about talent?

[AtariPixel]

overrated.



[niknaks23]

Cant help but look at his crotch area every 5 sec lol

[th3giv3r]

@sigfreud81 haha now you're getting ahead of yourself. But I have nothing to hide. youtube.com/watch?v=mR-cu0qoAv­M

[joakim2k10]

@th3giv3r Don't take this the wrong way, but that was pretty much something any guy with a guitar could compose in ten minutes or so(a certain talent needed of course). Continue what you do though, you'll obviously get better by time.

As for Bernhoft, I'm not really into this song neither. You should search for "Bernhoft kampen bistro". Those songs are better composed, performed and with better sound quality.

[th3giv3r]

@joakim2k10 Yep, and as is stated, it is an introductory passage. Congratulations, you should get blasted like I did for not being impressed. But I don't do that. You're entitled to your opinion, which is something I wish these other non-doers-of-anything could understand. Cheers.

[th3giv3r]

@sigfreud81 I'm not entirely sure I owe you or him anything. Neither my sadness nor my frustration has anything to do with others' ability to express themselves. However, I've listened to enough music in my time to know what moves me, what impresses me - and this is not included in that category. I could show you what I have to offer, but something tells me you'll be biased against it from the get-go, given this "lively" exchange of ours.

[th3giv3r]

@sigfreud81 It depends. Jealous of his talent? Sure. Jealous of his songwriting? No.

[asonzzz]

hey bernhoft.. if you are coming to Singapore just let me know.. i do admire your music creativity.. cheers!

[lilwave123]

You can tell he just genuinely loves performing haha

[th3giv3r]

Funny that you speak about ignorance, when if you'd actually read what I wrote, you'd know that I conceded that he's talented. It's all the stupid "genius" banter that irritates me. Honestly, pretty please, just keep your two cents. You seem to need it more than I.

[lilletingeling]

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!! Fantastisk musiker!! Hilsen en annen vokalist :))

[labbern]

Norges Stolthet <3 JARLE <3

[rrivera1901]

Flamers of this artist can go be frustrated idiots somewhere else because you are not appreciated here

[th3giv3r]

@sigfreud81 And I fucking hate his haircut. Yours too, probably.

[th3giv3r]

@sigfreud81 This is nothing special. This technical spectacle. It doesn't move me, and it doesn't impress me. I have already admitted he is a talented musician.You've annoyed me. Someone can have a good voice but sing stupid, stupid things. Someone can play many instruments, but if the song does nothing but groove on the same goddamn chord progression, it doesn't make it revelatory.

[DarkShade01]

Send him to America! We want him here! :D

[GrevMivlos]

Killer awesome guitar sound @ 5:20

Sounds like a PRS :S

Really appealing music. 5/5

[iannesofie]

bet there's a few ladies in that room wanting to take him home - not blaming them.

[rink741415]

I even like the shoes :)

[CaseyTheDrummerBoy]

Probably..no.. THE most brilliant and most talented man I've ever seen/heard.

[touile14]

OMG! he is so good? we are sitting on my school and hear him all day. chill

[sharonvirtue]

He's not sampling.. he is looping LIVE ...its amazing way beyond sampling

[CharlieDuranZ]

Excepcional!!!

[th3giv3r]

Yes, I have chosen to do just that. Great musician? Sure. Those who yell genius at anything with a guitar and black, horn-rimmed glasses? Too much.

[th3giv3r]

I have no idea what the highly chastised comment (in Norwegian?) said, but can I play Devil's Advocate and say, "Yes, he is a talented multi-instrumentalist, but he is severely limited by his mode of execution. Every song begins the same way: drum track, bass track, rhythm track, some vocal excerpt, cue verse. And I appreciate non-native English speakers writing their songs in English. But I cannot conceal that I am not moved by the lyrical content, nor the technological "genius".

[Fredrikjaa]

@th3giv3r You sir, are a douche. This guy is a great musician. If you don't like him then don't follow his music.

[Glenn71]

@th3giv3r What have you sir done that is so great?

Saying that Jarle Bernhoft is not talented, that is plain ignorance.

You can search his old band SPAN and see him in a different setting and see that he is a true talent.

My two cents is that you are jealous because you have not accomplished anything in your own life.

[th3giv3r]

@Glenn71 As for SPAN, I checked out some vids. I definitely like some of it, and yes, he's talented, but, okay, so what? Here, like I had written, he's severely limited. He makes wonderful use of it, to be sure, but I liked the freer compositions he made with his band. This particular stuff bores me. But thanks for the recommendation. Again, I liked it.

[JilaX]

@th3giv3r So, you have in other words only seen live clips, and heard none of his studio works?

*facepalm*

Listen ot his CDs.

[maymay9114u]

I love this man!! He is AMAZING!!! Biggest fan right here!! haha

[SennHeiser202]

Damn he's good, I've been listening him for a 2 years now, didn't knew he was a one man band, WOW what a talent, great voice, superb musical skills .... Come &play in Holland

[vawnalex]

Can everyone hear ME SCREAMING "OMG THIS CHILD IS THE FORREAL CRAZY SUPER DA BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!" That doesnt even make sense becuz this skill doesnt make sense!!!!! LAWD HAVE MERCY!! Im screamong in my highest hardest voice! I like it I love it I want more of IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DarkAngelBabey]

Jarle er absolutt Norges beste vokalist

[31285bpierre]

he makes me want to be better... not many do that... why isnt he more well known? o wait, because people dont know what real talent is anymore... shame...

[NikkNakk79]

Dette er musikk!!!

[ericsunbass]

star

[TheOldhippiechik]

not only innovative but a great voice, refreshing and different. Wonderful !!

[jonasmathiassen]

I am somewhat saddened by the fact that I can't think of a way to express just how much I appreciate this music. This is probably the biggest revelation I've had since my discovery of Andy Mckee encouraged me to start playing the guitar. It's as if a 'Like' just doesn't quite cut it. This is amazing.

[PianoSession]

Inspiring musician! Great playing and then the voice smashes it, this deserves recognition world wide!

[AndriYJordaN]

his voice is perfect for blues ! woow

[iheir]

YOU, YES YOU, THE ONE WHO DISLIKED: GET LOST!!!

[saywah33]

Soul. He gives my heart a workout everytime I listen to him play.

The woman at 5:06 is my favorite audience shot

[hanshanekam]

@strek0655 Jeg vil nå ikke si at de opptrer i samme sjanger; Bernhoft viser at han er i stand til å spille låtene sine helt på egenhånd mens denne beardyman opptrer jo utelukkende for showoff av sine beatboxingskills

[strek0655]

@hanshanekam Beardyman sine liveshow er ofte i kombinasjon med en KP3, som er en sampler...

[hanshanekam]

@strek0655 Poenget mitt var heller at Bernhoft er en genuin musiker mens det Beardyman gjør er kun for showoff og at det dermed ikke kan sammenlignes. Jeg kan vedde store penger på at Bernhoft ikke på noen måte prøver å etterligne eller minne om denne Beardyman og jeg synes også det er rart om at du føler det naturlig kun fordi de begge sampler.

Det er trist (hovedsaklig for deg) at du ikke likte klippet og teknikken, men det virker utifra øvrige tilbakemeldinger som de fleste andre gjør det.

[strek0655]

@hanshanekam At jeg ikke liker musikken som du gjør er ikke nødvendigvis trist, jeg syntes det heller er trist at du har et så opphovnet selvbilde at du føler deg komfortabel av å si HVA som er genuin musikk. Du har selvfølgelig helt rett i at det ikke er samme sjanger og jeg brukte bare beardyman som et eksempel på stilen "live sampling" du har sikkert helt sikkert rett i at Berhoft ikke har hørt om Beardyman. Men det er ikke akkurat nyskapende og musikken grep meg ikke akkurat...

[hanshanekam]

@strek0655 Jeg mente aldri å framstå som opphoven, men av det jeg så av Beardyman etter at du nevnte ham i din første kommentar så virker det som han er en entertainer framfor musiker og det var det jeg mente med bruken av ordet genuin. At det ikke er nyskapende tror jeg også Bernhoft kan leve med å få høre, men å sammenligne en hvis karriere er bygd på nettopp beatboxing og sampling med en vanlig musiker som Bernhoft som forsøker å være litt uortodoks blir bare ulogisk.

[lassefan]

@hanshanekam Bernhoft samplet ikke, han looper det han spiller live :) (selv om kanskje noe har sagt det før etter du skrev det for 5 mnd siden) ;)

[Crishhoff]

@strek0655 kjip akkustisk etterligning etter beardyman er det ikke i det hele tatt, beardyman er noe helt annet, begge er noen råtasser allefall.

[flaskeballe]

@strek0655 På hvilken måte?

[Crishhoff]

@flaskeballe han snakker jo bare bull da =P

[GetBent92]

@strek0655 Taper!

[GlennBacca]

@strek0655 Jeg søkte opp Beardyman, og jeg må si at det å sammenligne han med Jarle Bernhoft er en fornærmelse mot både Bernhoft og hele musikkverden!

Er helt enig med hanshanekam.
