This band is very special. Has been a lot of drama within the group, but it seems to be solved now. They are one of Norways hidden secrets i would call them... Few have heard of them outside of Norway, but within Norway i feel that this band means a lot to many people. Enjoy your journey ❤❤

Nice reaction. Please do more Highasakite reactions! I believe the lead vocalist, Inger Helene Håvik, is from Ålesund. I left Norway almost 40 years ago and I am astounded at the sheer volume of amazing musical talent coming from Norway theses days - especially when it comes to female vocalists. I used to know Bergen quite well having served in the Royal Norwegian Navy for several years.

Thank you Didy! This is a great new discovery. I will be hitting replay on this one many times today. I have been along for your reactions to Angelina as well and let me say a few things. So many youtube reactors really have nothing to offer other than feigned expressions of shock and surprise with an accompanying banal and vapid commentary. It is clear they are riding the wave of some trending or popular video in pursuit of gaining subscribers and views for the youtube ad revenue. Most of these "reactions" have little if anything of value to add to the original content for the viewer. Enter Didymalgia. You are emphatically not what I just described above, and I would argue the model of what a youtube reactor should be. You seem to be a regular guy that is in the youtube reactor game but honestly so. No phony faces, no over-the-top shenanigans, and no unoriginal commentary that has been plagiarized from other reactors. You add value, my friend. Legit value. I appreciate your translations and also your explanations of Norwegian culture- like a description of some music festival, where it is held, how it came to be an event, who plays there, where the money goes. You play the role of "host" and give the viewer an interesting and valuable bit of extra knowledge. This is not limited to just sharing "Norway stuff" with the viewer. You do the same with your general interest and appreciation for music and musical artists. I think it comes down to the fact that you simply put yourself in the viewers shoes and ask yourself, what can I add here that is worth saying and useful or valuable to the viewer. So, thank you. You are the first and only reactor I have subscribed to. Now, I will attempt to make this a two-way street. You mentioned that you are looking for new artists, so here is one that doesn't seem to get nearly the attention I think they deserve. Kalandra. You may know them. If not, let me suggest Brave New World (Live at Kulturkirken Jakob).

I don't know what to say... I have never seen a "description" of my self like the one you just made... I'm speechless, but so honoured. I'm just trying to enjoy the music, and tell a bit about my experience with the artist and especially the song. I talk about the small things i find interesting in the songs, and i really hope i can get better at it in time. I want to be able to describe in english all the different things i experience in a more correct musical term, but that takes time. I'm 14 days old in this "game" and i had no intentions to become a "reactor" 14 days ago... Kalandra is on my future "to do" list, and Brave New World will be checked out of course

That was a very heartfelt and I think accurate comment. Didy is a perfect reactor for Angelina fans who tend to be older and more mature. We relate to the artists and songs she covers. Those staged shocked faces on some reactor thumbnails are a dead giveaway. There are a lot of phonies out there. I also don't like reactors who just sit there stone-faced. The trick is to show your appreciation honestly, naturally and organically without exaggeration, or as you put it, "no over-the-top shenanigans".

We have free school until we’re 18 years old. And if you do art, you get paid from the state. We also have great water, it’s not added anything. Basically we have the same water in our taps that are in Voss water, the water people in other countries pay a lot for. We don’t buy Voss water, or any other, cause we can just tap it in a bottle in our homes👍 Well, I have actually bought water, but that has been when I’ve forgotten it at home😅 So we may have something special in our water😅

You know the saddest thing about this is that Ingrid and Marte were 'besties' when this was made but very shortly afterwards the former effectively sacked the latter, along with two other very talented band members by 'going it alone' (along with the original duo member). As good as Highasakite are now (and they are, the most recent album, Mother, is excellent) I'm convinced that was a terrible mistake even though those other musicians are doing well for themselves. Highasakite as they were in 2016 would have been a world beating band by now.

Hello again Diddy. Super awesome that you reacted to Highasakite. They're actually one of my very favorite bands, regardless from where. Gonna enjoy your journey I think :-) Another one of my favorite Norwegian bands is Kalandra. The vocalist, Katrine Stenbekk, has a vocal like no other singer I know of. Even though the song is not an original, it's by Rockettothesky, I would love if you found the time to react to their version of "Grizzly Man". I totally love that song tbh :-) Here is the link : kzitem.info/news/bejne/jn2l4JOrrWeQhYY See you soon, my friend :-)
