Speaker of the Norwegian Parliament Massoud Qarahkhani in mourning:

My favorite artist is dead. Tina Turner, the lady with a bone in her nose who has had a hard life. But she has inspired many generations with her music and energy.

– She was a great artist and I understand very well that her popularity spread all over the world, says longtime NRK music journalist Vidar Lönn Arnesen (82).

Tina Turner has been to Norway many times.

– We’d probably call her a friend of Norway, but I’ve never met her in person, or had any contact with her, says Lønn-Arnesen, known to many from the radio show “Ti i Skuddet” and the TV classic “Da Capo”.

He did not revolutionize the world of music, believes Lønn-Arnesen, who was born in 1940 – a year after Tina Turner.

— but she was an exceptionally skilled singer and an incredible showperson. The NRK music legend says she never gave up and persevered till the end.
