The first time I saw the name, I googled who Lene was. Because I didn't found a wikipedia article for a person who definitely should have one, I wrote a short one about her (German Wikipedia). A few days later I saw that the community had edited my outline into a way more detailed article. That's for you, Lene.
WOW, You have helped the world get to know Lene's story. Just like Susanne. Thank you SO much! Danke schon mein freund!☮️🕊️♥️ From 🇨🇦
My mom died when I was 8 and as I wanted to die but didn't know how to do It I decided to stop eating. Passed out on stage during a school play 2 months after turning 9 and got rushed to the ER. The average 9 year old weights around 35kg, I was 21kg. The doctors told my grandparents to plan my funeral since I was in a comma. Had two feeding tubes one up my nose and other one on the side of my stomach. Was diagnosed with anorexia and extreme depression after losing my favorite person. Any ED tratment center wanted to admit me since I was so young. I thought I was going to die. I'm 18 now and have permanent kidney and liver damage I need a feeding tube almost all the time but I'm doing so much better, I feel better and just started collegue so yes there is hope
God bless you love, your mom is always with you, she is your angel! Keep swimming!♥️
Thank you ❤
I recently lost the love of my life to a senseless hit and run, and this resonates with my pain so much.
That is awful. I am sorry for you loss. 🌷
I'm so very sorry to hear that.
Becoming an adult can be very traumatic for some kids. It is a time they almost lose their identity, like the transition from cocoon to butterfly. Body, mind and soul changes so much.
She held onto her identity through her camera but the illness had a tight grip.
Rip little butterfly
😭😭
This is probably one of the saddest and at the same time brightest song I’ve ever heard
You're not only honoring Lene, but everyone who struggles with an eating disorder. Too often they are tragically misunderstood. Too often I hear people think it must be because we think we're fat or something like that, when the roots are so varied and they can be deeply tragic and existential. I hear this music and see these images, and I feel my eating disorder reflected, but more so in a way that I feel seen. Thank you, Susanne.
Susanne needs to be recoginized by the world, she deserves to be well known. They don't know what they're missing, this truly piece of art.
Her writing, composing, editing, key choices, mid song fluctuatuions, she is fckin divine, and undoubtedly one of the most precise masterful emotion conveying voices of the century that mashed together with her razor sharp lyrics that have something everyone can relate to, when listening to her songs all i can imagine is birds in snowy skies with sun beams peaking from cloud to cloud. She deserves nore
I am suspicious of her and her subject in this video, I am going to share my concerns with international policing not UK for a start, as she or he is familiar certainly those photographing the subject in the gallery. If it is as they say she is now dead that will have to be investigated as the subject is known to me as are others in the line up mummy too
@@YAYFUL1 wow youre insane
@@YAYFUL1 And how is the investigation going? Lol
The last mother's scream ... Then you all left. Into your child's nightmare. Forever gone ..like lene. For 10photos.
Susanne has truly found herself as an artist. The phrasing and control of her voice is at its peak. The arrangements are powerful and smart. Haunting lyrics. When I imagine an angel’s voice all I hear is Susanne.
The most beautiful voice in the world! Can't get closer to perfect vocals. So beautiful.
To me it's a hybrid of an angel and demon I guess. It's kinda terrifying but you'd still want to listen to it. It's surreal.
Also hear Enya and Dolores Riordan
Se você é BR, senti um orgulho da terrinha agora. ♥
She is so talented. It's extraordinary.
Cried like a child
I’m utterly unable to find the right word to describe this feeling.
*sacred capture.*
Terbaik memang👍

Listening once again to this with tears running down my face. The most beautiful song I've ever heard in my 62 years. Powerful sweet sadness.
I was just thinking about what I wrote about this song and I must have been in one of those head spaces only few will ever understand as I'm only 46 years young I don't need to add years onto myself or maybe because I've tried to enjoy life a little bit too much I probably feel that age. I'm not a stupid person and I'm reasonably intelligent although I left school at 16 with all u's but managed to travel the world working and travelling is the best way to learn what matters been lucky to meet so many people from Africa to India and dubai to Azerbaijan and many more places and I learned a fact that everyone should have the chance to learn and its that every race, religion, colour and creed and we all just want to be able to live happily and in peace and we are all the exact same people inside if only people could look past their own preconceptions that are fed to us all I guarantee the world would be so much better off than the way things are today. Every countries people have their own amazing qualities and some of the nicest people I've met on my travels are from the middle east but we all should be making each other better people than we are right now as we all have the same ideas and issues that should combined would make the world united instead of divided, but that's only my feelings and nobody will probably ever read this as much as I would love people to. Peace and love and respect for all its not rocket science folks.
@@andrewwylie6703 I read it brother, god bless you, life is a maze, and you arr getting there, to the real meaning...
I just cried and cried.
I just discovered this. I am crying.
It's so heartbreaking. She was a very talented photographer. Susanne's music and voice fit very well to the documentary.
As a grown man I have not cried for ages. But half way thru this powerfull song, i found my self crying my eyes out..
This has to be one of Susanne best production yet, and she sure have her golden Archives.
Exellent story with the frames, to be told with her Lyrics and crystal clear pitch Voice!.
And my God! For how long did she hold that Amazingly Complex tone at 01:00minute!!??
RIP Lene🧡
Everyone has their own struggles. Don't judge other people. Love yourself and those around you. A beautiful song with powerful imagery.
Id love to love other ppl around me(family), but sometimes they could be a pain in the azz😞......but still doing my best to love 'em🥀✨
At least you didn’t mention fucking Jesus or God…
I'm completely blown away by the beauty of this song. I'm a big tattooed, shaved headed straight guy but I'm crying buckets here! What an artist.
Boys don’t cry, men do ❤
probably the most talented artist of the actual generation
Not only she, AURORA, Tash Sultana and i hope more other artists!
@@michaljon1963 the list goes on and on to perhaps even dozens with beautiful voices
Susanne's perfect as always. And the story is heartbreaking.
I've never been a shallow person. I suffered anorexia myself and got through it by some miracle. Lene Marie made me see beauty in a way I had never seen it before. She was a magnificent photographer and it's such a shame that she is gone. I read a quote somewhere that said, 'the greatest artists are often tormented souls'. Her work touches me every time I see it and I seek it regularly because it's so amazing.
Thank you for these words.. Thank you
I don't know why this makes me cry every time I listen
Lena, you will always be in my heart. They say that when we remember those who have passed on, they never leave us. To those who have crossed over, you remain in our hearts. ❤
when words are created to respond to this, I will.
You have met an angel. Not many can say that Susanne.
She (Lene) was blessed now. Of course she’s listening to this beautiful song in heaven. Rest In Peace.
Gabriel Canto your handsome
Anyone else notice that Susanne is sitting by Lenes bed, holding her hand at a hospital visit? It's at 2:58.
.....if there is a straight way to the human's soul, then Susanne really helps us to find it.... many thanks.
And I do not think someone could have done better to make us reach the absolute purety of Lene Marie Fossen....
Many thanks again Susanne....❤💋
Susanne Sundfør is one of the few real artist
There are many real artists just like in the past. It's also much easier for not-so real artists to exist recently.
I’m still listening!!!!
This video and this song show the rawness of this battle.
I feel and see the deep wounds inside, portraited on the outside - that live in the psychy and the soul.
I have huge compassion for this deep subject and can relate with my own story♥️
Keep showing up with our hearts first to the people around us.
The warmth and love from eachother is the medicine our world need♥️
Wow what an incredible voice and homage to Lena Marie Fossen RIP 🙏🏽
Hauntingly beautiful....may she rest in peace
Found this in my recommendation list and something told me I needed to click on it. Wow, I wasn’t prepared for the waves of emotion that would crash over me, engulfing me in tears. I wept within the first minute. What a sublime portrait of a woman, thank the lord that her story lives on, and her fantastic pictures. Her self portraits are so haunting, so exquisite and overflowing with emotional intent. Susanne’s song perfectly encapsulates the meaning of the source material.
Lene Marie Fossen lived with anorexia since she was ten years old, and through her own stories and experiences, we get along well on her way to her inner gate.
She shares openly about traumatic experiences with coercion in the health care system, about the fear of becoming an adult and about living with a disease that is all too often met without understanding and with burdensome mistakes....."My photos are not about anorexia, they are about human suffering" - Lene Marie Fossen
I love how she dedicates herself to being a photograph she is really good, shows how you can still live and do things you love even with and ed or any mental illness. Truly inspiring.
@@Katethebush00 Agree , she was a fantastic story teller til the end. Much respect to her.
@eaglerising82
In a way, you are right.
In another way, you are wrong, in a few ways ...
*you'll never know what it means because it was her unique property.*
Rip :(
I always asked myself, I still do, today too. Why doesn't Sundfør get the acknowledge that she truly deserve. This is a masterpiece of all 3 criterias - melody - lyrics - message/delivery. Still she cannot even reach 1 million viewers on it.
Something is wrong. (with this world.)
nothing to add here. criminally underrated. it's a pity
@@soleywolfgangsdottir I just hope she knows that she deserve better. I know it is not much winnings in being bitter..
@@grandiosa86 recently she made a social media post on instagram and it seems that she has no idea how many people outside of norway love and adore her music. still not enough people, though. for me, she is absolut top league.
I am 49 years old and agonised over watching this deeply moving video. Rest in peace Line Marie Fossen. Your artwork was powerful, and astonishing. What a moving piece.
I have no belief for gods or angels, but you make me question myself, Susanne. Rest well, Lene.
i had noe belief in god either until i tried DMT. i still don't believe the god mentioned in the bible or other religions but i believe that there's some creator to this universe.
@@SaggyMarley if this creator needs drugs to be seen or felt or whatever then that's definitely an interesting way of communication :)
our atoms are recycled into another universe and thus she is alive somewhere else, fulfilling a new destiny, in another universe. far from where we exist.
God/Universe/Consciousness is the only thing that exists. You are merely a fragment of God disguised under the illusion of ego and separation.
@@steventan2754 The feeling is there, all the time. Everywhere. All. The. Time. It's all about where you focus your attention. We're just so caught up in all the money and drama.. :) I was a non - believer myself.
I honestly didn't know who Lene was so I've just watched an English language interview she gave on TEDx Talks in 2017. I can now understand why Susanne liked her and would want to compose the documentary's soundtrack.
I'm so glad I've witnessed this. Thanks for bringing her story with your beautiful music. May she rest in peace
Sen var ya adamsın.
Her zaman mükemmel bir ruh olduğunu kanıtlıyor
Oha burada Türkler varmış şaşırdım yalnızım sanıyordum
@@sudenurodabasi Kanka ben de beş yıldır falan konserine gidemediğim için deli gibi ağladığımı hatırlıyorum :'(((
This is incredible.
Me 4 minutes and 11 seconds ago: I'm looking forward to seeing this.
Me now: Destroyed 😭😭😭
R.I.P Lene, you beautiful soul 💗💗💗
This is the most stunning art on the internet. Change my mind
Wowww what a voice gourgeous
Stunningly beautiful. Susanne is a Norwegian treasure. This documentary brought me to tears. Lene Marie was an immense talent. Rest in peace.
Let me go back
To when I was young
Here I was born
And here I will die lonesome
Let there be light
And let there be love
Hear the bells
Ring our song
Wake me
Wake me up my darling
When the Lord has descended on us
All the worries
That you carried with you
They are lost in a warm embrace
Timelessness
Far away
From the land
Where love is shame
And shame is love
A prison
Away from the dark
Snow-covered hearts
Softly
Lay your hands on me
Wake me
Wake me up my darling
When the Lord has descended on us
All the worries
That you carried with you
They are lost in a warm embrace
Timelessness
Thank you so much for this !!!
Thanks
Thank you I’ve been waiting for the lyrica
vampira1409 Thank you 🙏🏻
Gorgeous
Susanne & Aurora...I dont know why, but they like have their own Magic✨, captivate and touch ppl's Heart...somehow They r just Magical✨...r most of Norwegian Artists like them,...Magical like them 🥀✨
So beautiful talent, and it lost...is a really sadly disease the anorexia, thanks for compose this song and showing us the Lene 's history. I don't know her before today....Another voice was gone...
Wow, I’m crying. Such a gorgeous memorial song to this amazing photographer.
She was a brilliant artist. Rip 💐
She dies? :/
No wtf
@@rachelpinheiro2593 She sings about the artist with anorexia, and yes, she died.
@@ivipovi666 she's not dead no
@@eirikenersen8169 Susanne is not dead, but the girl in the video is. She was an art photographer.
I'd choose this one as my end credits song.
she is a goddess. what an amazing singer songwriter. gratitude from sydney australia.
Did I just found the most beautiful song in the world? This is not even a song... This is spiritual awakening.
Lene Marie Fossen (1986-2019) 🕊️
I think it is the very first song in a long time that has literally broken me every time I hear it. I don't really have many words to describe what this particular song provoques inside of me. I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart...
I don't know the story, but this piece of art expresses it perfectly. Masterpiece.
Fantastic photos used in this video!
Lene Maries frames are like Caravaggio's chiaroscuro painting technique. Utterly timeless and heart wrenchingly beautiful. I adore her work. It will live on forever xx
This melody line is gorgeous
Lene Marie Fossen. One really wonderful photographer and sweet, strong soul. I hope you are at peace finally. What a tribute!
And when you look into her eyes you ser how tired she is and still shes not giving up. Hope you rest in peace with our God ♥️
She has Angel' s Eyes , and has because to me, she s immortal. I could feel her into nature, whatever, she will be in a part of my mind...
So emotional & even more heartbreaking when you understand the backstory. May that talented girl rest in peace
This song really has a strong message, thanks for being you Susanne 🖤
Made me cry. Beatyfull.❤️
Let there be love
Sugárzik az empátia. Nagyszerű. Köszönet hogy lehetnek ilyen zenék.
there is no one doing it like Susanne!!!
This song is hauntingly beautiful on its own, but with the video, I was struggling to keep it together. Susanne is the perfect choice as the soundtrack for this documentary, her music always brings me to tears.
Everyone has their peace! Everyone has their trauma! Always hope for a good day. X
This is the most powerful song I heard in some time.All of this, the video, the story, the song.This is it.
I am in pieces!
Emotiva canción, bella historia que me ha hecho llorar.
Не могу смотреть это видео без слёз, каждый раз плачу…
As someone whose mother has suffered with anorexia/bulimia for the better part of thirty years, this song means a lot.
Good god what a voice..
oh my this is always so moving
well this song is so beautiful
I listen to this song every day now. If I fail to find God in the world, I can at least find God in Susanne's voice.
Her voice will forever be one of those closest to my heart.
I think I experience God when I feel love/compassion for another person
That was so moving. Incredible.
Thank you so much Susanne for sharing this beautiful song with all of us, I feel so peaceful after hearing it, your voice and music are such a warm embrace to my soul.
Absolutely beautiful song and voice.
A sad tale and a sad song. It can only be delivered by Susanne Sundfor. Thank you, from Australia, for such a beautiful piece!
I was unprepared for the onslaught of powerful emotion. Susanne's perfection of voice and Lene's story and photographs are overwhelming. So beautiful, so sad, so real, and so ultimately human. Brava to them both, and peace to Lene. Superb.
This is a remarkable video. But even without the images and lyrics, the beautiful sound of the music is one of the things that makes life worth living.
I love this comment section! ❤️ All the best blessed souls out there 🙌🏻
Susanne Sundfor is an artist for the history books. Not only the talent to write such a piece, but to be so cultured as to work with (and expose to me) such a brilliant artist in Lena. I may be biased, though, as besides being Greek myself and Lena working in Greece, in Lena I see my sister who passed of chronic illness as well. It’s strange that art about “human suffering” as Lena puts it seems to be the most fulfilling. While I can’t handle this without crying, I am thankful I have this to listen to every now and again.
Pain in beauty or beautiful pain.
Thank you for the soulful inspiration.
It's painful and heart breaking to see these images of this poor dear one suffering so. Coupled with the beauty of Susanne's piece, and this brings tears EVERY time I watch this.
May you awaken to the warm embrace that permeates all life, and give thanks for this, and every moment, for they are all precious.
Thank you, Susanne 🤍🤍🤍
My Lord, I can't help the tears falling. Look at us.
I will always be forever in this land of listening to Susanne's voice, From Chile. 💜✨
If Susanne ever decides to perform in Chile it would give me the perfect excuse to visit your amazing country again, I was in Santiago in May 2018 seeing Erasure.
Fan de Aurora?
Que sorpresa encontrar este comentario , creo que las compositoras noruegas estan a otro nivel , Susane , Ane Brun ,Anna of the north y Aurora ... saludos desde Antofagasta.
@@calebcancian9321 me gusta mucho igual, es exquisito verla y escuchar su dulce voz.
@@shaunpierce4174 It would be beautiful if I ever decided to visit Chile ✨
This is pure emotion, pure art... It made me cry and think about what I've built in my life so far.
Congratulations, I can't even imagine how mentally hard it was to produce this song and video. It's unique and necessary. Thank you!
same
I think that perhaps Lene was always an angel...and she's just gone home.
Every time I watch this I cry: for the beautiful music but mostly for Lene and her talent and her struggle. Her face at the end...heart breaking.
🌷 I love you, Susanne 🌷
❤️ You're an amazing artist ❤️
Wow. I woke up in tears to this. it was in my watchlist which i accidentally left playing while i slept.
One of the most honest and most beautiful pieces of art I've seen ❤
This is the first thing that has make me emotional in many months. Bless Lene, whenever she is, she is now free.
superbe hommage à cette sublime photographe....
Great job Susanne. May Lene rest in peace.
