Eivør frábær í síðasta þætti.
Í síðasta þætti af Kvöldstund með Eyþóri Inga mætti færeyska stórsöngkonan Eivør Pálsdóttir og fór á kostum.
Þar kom meðal annars í ljós að það hafi alltaf verið draumur Eyþórs að heyra söngkonuna taka lagið Running Up That Hill með Kate Bush.
Það gerði hún og útkoman algjörlega lygileg eins og sjá má hér að neðan.

Very few people could possibly cover Kate Bush and reach her level. Eivør is one such person.

[AddictedMuzic]

You know, I've always said that her voice gives me major Kate bush vibes! So this is perfect!

[greggmoore]

I've been a Kate Bush fan for 40+ years. In all that time, I've not heard a cover of Running Up That Hill that truly did justice to the original...until now. That Eivor's live version is nearly on par with Kate's studio version is quite remarkable. What an incredible duo they would make! I hope this or another version finds its way onto a future studio album. Well done, Eivor!

Eivor needs to be mainstream and on radio globally, super talented ❤

[madisonhamil]

This woman is the epitome of an enigmatic and unmatched force of music and art 😭😍

[bankroller]

I usually avoid Kate Bush covers because they rarely do her songs justice but I thought that I'd try this because it was Eivor. Absolutely amazing. The best cover of this song that I have ever heard.

[dreamcatcher]

I don’t know what algorithm brought me here but WOW! This is probably, no, definitely, the best cover I’ve heard of Kate Bush’ genius ‘Running up that hill’. This was mind blowing 🤯

[JohnH-cpms]

Eivør is one of the best singers in the world!

[Dr.VonBraun]

Eivør is the only woman who can truly cover this song perfectly.

[SCconservative]

Eivor is the love child of Kate Bush and Enya

[brucebennett]

beautiful rendition of a beautiful song

[bigfefu]

what an amazing Musicians...and Eivor is in a league of her own

[southsidejohnny]

Can I only like this once? Doesn’t seem fair. Eivor is out of this world. Eivor and Kate Bush??? Beyond Galactic.

[WhatHandle]

I just saw her live in April and absolutely breathtaking. With that being said, I havent stopped listening to her albums. She sings to my soul

[nickmajor]

This is absolutely stunning. Eivor can carry Kate Bush's beautiful song really well, something I don't think I've experienced before. I need to hear more of her.

[mirjavidmirzayev]

Astonishing performance but please give some respect and love to the guys who mixed at the recordingt and programmed everything perfectly. What a soundgasm. Thanks to the band and more thanks to the guys in the background.

[Lorryhails]

Every time I hear Eivors voice my soul stops constricting and I feel that I can finally breathe again.
The only conflict her voice brings me is wanting to keep her all to myself, but knowing the hearing and feeling her voice should be compulsory for everyone. (YOU all know what I mean)
Her voice alone to me makes her the best human ever!
Eivor for president of the world!

[Asgardsteve]

Eivor and Kate have very similar vocals, that's why Eivor is probably one of the only people who could pull off a cover of a Kate Bush song

[jenniferprattmusic]

OMG! It's a dream come true. How am I just now seeing this? One of my favorite songs ever covered by one of my favorite vocalists. Eivor can sing anything! The accompaniment was pretty awesome too! It's a difficult song to cover.

[rayzor_b]

I too have been a life long fan of Kate, and covers sit in three categories. Fails, passable and in your case - smashed it. I agree with others, best cover I've heard, thumbs up here.
