An article recently featured a stunning rendition of “You Raise Me Up,” one of my all-time favorite songs. Over the years, this song has been covered by numerous singers and artists.
This song was inspired by the Irish-Norwegian duet Secret Garden. The song was written and performed by them. They then performed this song in 2002 alongside Brian Kennedy, who at the time was not very successful in the UK.
In the US, only Josh Groban’s performance of this song was successful. Millions of people worldwide were inspired by the song’s rapid rise to fame and widespread cover.
One of the reasons this song is such a huge hit is because of its timeless and poignant lyrics. This song has gained so much popularity that it is frequently aired on television, is the anthem of a Norwegian football team, and has been adopted by several figure skaters.
Because it is so heartwarming, everyone can identify with the people that raised, encouraged, and supported us during our darkest moments. They helped us achieve our achievement, which we now take for granted, and for that we are thankful.
This song was recently sung by YouTube sensation Peter Hollens. He sang the song himself to start. The song was then accompanied by a large ensemble of talented voices.
When they all raise their voices simultaneously, the song becomes even more beautiful and moving, even if Peter’s voice is already loud and amazing. They all had angelic voices. For a rawr, more dramatic feel, they all sing a cappella.
