The World Economic Forum in Davos has quite the reputation for gathering industry and policy bigwigs together to discuss serious topics such as the climate crisis, as well as sharing ideas on pressing issues… and listen to weird singing, apparently.
Singer-songwriter Achinoam Nini (also known as Noa) and guitarist Gil Dor, both from Israel, gave a (very) memorable performance on Thursday ahead of a conversation with climate advocate Carla Gomez Briones on the subject of “music as a catalyst for change”.
The bizarre music featuring whistling and almost operatic singing from Noa has since gone viral online, with many wondering exactly what is going on.
“Never thought something would make me not want to be a billionaire,” joked one commenter.
Another wrote: “I’ve listened to this way more times than I am prepared to admit.”
“My favourite part was when it ended,” a third responded bluntly.
Others compared it to a performance from the 1997 film The Fifth Element, while one noted it sounded similar to the viral track “The 7th Element” sung by Russian singer Vitas.
Meanwhile, we're reminded of that weird - and very annoying - Lloyds TSB advert which did the rounds several years ago.
As well as being attended by unusual musicians, this year’s WEF also saw climate activist Greta Thunberg speak as a panellist, using the opportunity to call out the United Arab Emirates over a decision they have taken regarding this year’s United Nations climate change conference – more commonly known as Cop.
The 28th iteration of the event will take place at the end of the year, but its president has been confirmed as Sultan al-Jaber, the boss of Abu Dhabi’s national oil company, or Adnoc for short.
“Lobbyists have been influencing these conferences since forever, and this just puts a very clear face to it. It’s completely ridiculous,” Ms Thunberg said.
Calling Satan is the name of the song
Can indeedy just hear cloven hooves clicking to the rhythm.
I will take the WEF much more seriously now that the intellectual heavyweight Thunberg as a panelist. NOT!
Creepy
That explains a lot.
The real World Economic Forum was leaking and now singing out ,LOL
If you're serious, can you site a source for that? If that was a joke, please say so. Satan is VERY active right now in the world and at Davos.
And to use 6-string guitar!
It’s sort of like the diva in the opera house scene on Floston Paradise in The Fifth Element - if done on open mic night at a hipster coffee house.
It’s not Yoko Ono bad, but it’s pretty bad, if you ask me.
That was pretty gay, kinda like everything else the WEF supports.
I wonder if the Thunberg girl has ever been genetically tested for Downs syndrome?
I guess its not probable because DS kids are nearly always sweet and optimistic and Thunberg is a rage filled brat.
Its a hot, steaming log drop in the porcelain bowl of wokeness.
LOL!
(That explains a lot.)
Indeed. And appropriate for the WEF.
These WEF types do truly live in another world.
I hope all the big-name “guests” at Davos come to the realization that they have become members of a cult led by a deranged latter-day Nazi.
But then again, my tagline probably applies here.
And I thought Seattle was bad.
Switzerland, meet Seattle. Enjoy!!
This is good. Very good. This shows the Davos fad is running its course. Soon, the main movers and shshakers will be shunning this event.
However, if this can be leveraged to encourage all the libtards to move to trendy Davos, they can blow up THEIR real estate values and get the hell out of my Montana and elsewhere.
The idea that many of these billionaire titans of industry attend this thing and NOT realize it is a complete waste of time (other than an opportunity to network with other billionaires for legit business purposes) is starting to become more hopeful.
