LINDA!

Sum summi av tykkum kanska longu vita, so hevur X-Factor verið í sjónvarpinum síðstu mongu vikurnar. Ein av luttakarunum var føroyska Linda Andrews, ið fríggjakvøldið, VANN kappingina, við sanginum "So what," hjá Pink, og "Det bedste til sidst," ið varð skrivaður til høvið.

Eg gjørdist rímiliga kløkkur, tá eg sá Lindu koma á pallin, grátandi. Beint áðrenn hon kom fram, var eitt lítið sjónband víst, har familja og vinir Lindu tosaðu um hana, og var tað tí, hon brast út í tár. Gráturin ávirkaði byrjanuna á sanginum, men, sum altíð, kom hon sterkt aftur, og tað eydnaðist bara væl hjá henni ;)

Til finaluna í kappingini sá mann beinleiðis video frá øllum trimum heimbýunum hjá finalistunum. Tí var eisini sent beinleiðis frá Hvonn í Havn, har nógvir av familju, vinum og kenningum hennara vóru til staðar; onnur vóru sjálvandi eisini.. :P

Eg vil ynskja Lindu TIL LUKKU við kappingini!

Her sært tú báðar sangirnir, sum hon sang í finaluni:
Here you can watch both songs, which she sang in the finals:

"So what"



"Det bedste til sidst"

LINDA!

As some og you may already know, the Danish X-Factor has been shown on TV the last many weeks. One of the participants was the Faroese Linda Andrews, who Friday evening WON the show, with the song, "So what" by Pink, and "Det beste til sidst(The best for last)," which was written for the final.

I got rather shocked when I saw Linda appear on stage, crying. Right before she went on stage, there was shown a little video where Linda's family and friends talked about her, which was the reason for her starting to cry. The crying affected the beginning of her singing, but, as always, she came strong back, and it just went on really well for her ;)

On the finals of the show, you could see live video from all three hometowns of the finalists. Therefor there was also sent live from Hvonn(a hotel/resturaunt), in Tórshavn, where a lot of her family and friends were watching; of course, other peole were there as well.. :P

Congratulations, Linda!

Danska X-factor

Sum nøkur av tykkum kanska vita, so hevur danska X-factor tey seinastu fríggjakvøldini verið víst á DR1, og eisini forskotið á Sjónvarpi Føroya. X-factor byrjaði í Danmark, síðsta ár, og kom so aftur í ár.

Grundin til at eg skrivi um tað danska X-factor er, at har er ein føroyingur sum luttekur í har. Linda Andrews(listanavnið, veruliga navnið er Andreasen), sum býr í Danmark, men er úr Føroyum, kom inn til audition, og fekk trý ja, beinanvegin. Tú kans síggja tá Linda fer til Audition niðriundir her:


Danish X-Factor

As some of you perhaps know, the Danish show X-Factor has been shown the last Friday evenings on DR1, and also broadcasted on the National Faroese television. X-Factor began in Denmark, last year, and continued this year.

The reason that I write about the Danish X-Factor is that there is a Faroese woman in it now. Linda Andrews (stage name , her real name is Andreasen), who lives in Denmark, but is from the Faroe Islands, came in to the audition, and got three yesses, immediately. You can see Linda in the audition below:


Hon slapp so víðari til Live-showini(Beinleiðis kappingarnar), og er allatíðina komin víðari, eisini tá hon í kvøld sang Money, Money, Money hjá ABBA. Allir luttakarirnir sungu ABBA sangir, tí tema'ið var "ABBA."

She went further to the Live shows, and is continuing to go further, and last night she sang ABBA's Money, Money, Money. All the participants sang ABBA songs, because the topic was ABBA.

Linda Andrews, Money, Money Money:


Tú kanst eisini síggja allar hinar sangirnir, sum Linda singur, í beinleiðis kappingunum á Youtube. Her eru leinkini:

You can also see all of the songs Linda sings in the live shows on Youtube. Here are the links:

Live Show 1, Because of You
Live Show 2, Vårvise
Live Show 3, You Can't Hurry Love

Annars kann man siga um Lindu, at hon vaks upp í Havn(Tórshavn), og gekk nógv í samkomum. Hon hevur havt eina samrøðu við Útvarpið, og hon liggur almenn á netinum. Hon er í tveimum partum, tú kanst hoyra tær her: Samrøða 1 og Samrøða 2

Other things that one can say about Linda, are that she grew up in Havn (Tórshavn, we call it Havn locally), and was active in the Church community. She has had an interview with Útvarpið(the National Faroese Radio), and that interview is available online. The interview is in two parts, you can hear them here: Samrøða 1 and Samrøða 2
