– Overwhelmed, says the artist himself – VG

– I am overwhelmed and I think it is very good that our song is performed by Joe Biden in such a historic moment, writes Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll, better known as Kygo, in an SMS to VG.

After giving his victory speech Sunday night, the new president closed with one of Kygo’s latest songs: “Higher love.”

The song originally became a huge hit for Steve Winwood in 1986, while Whitney Houston recorded a cover in 1990.

There was a great atmosphere on stage when the song was played on Sunday night and several people danced. The new vice president, Kamala Harris, danced with her hands in the air.

– When I make music, I want it to be happy and create hope for a better future. For me, it’s an honor if “Higher Love” can contribute to this, says Kygo.

– Time to put the harsh rhetoric aside

After an intense election drama, Joe Biden delivered a clear message to the American people Sunday night:

He wants to be a unifying president and wants to restore America’s good name and reputation after what he calls a “dark age.”

– It’s time to put aside the harsh rhetoric, lower the temperature and start listening again, he said among other things to the more than 70 million Americans who voted for the opponent in this year’s elections.

In their victory speeches to the American people on Sunday evening, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris emphasized unity and diversity.

Violent clashes were feared after the elections, regardless of the outcome. But so far there have been no major clashes.

Full party in the streets

In the crucially changing state of Pennsylvania, an entire party was on the streets after Democratic candidate Joe Biden was named the new president. Hundreds of Biden supporters showed up to celebrate the victory.

Although the mainstream media have nominated Biden as the winner of the US presidential election, the formal processes are still underway in the tally and the result has not been made official.

In addition, the incumbent president questions the results in several states. Donald Trump and his team have presented no evidence of their allegations of voter fraud.

Trump began complaining about voter fraud before the election began.

– Sow the seeds so you can make the election suspect if you lose, said Vanita Gupta, head of the Justice Department’s civil law department under Barack Obama, as early as May.

Saturday tweeted Trump who “won this election by a wide margin”, despite the fact that Joe Biden has won 279 voters to 213 for Trump in the VG summary, and despite the fact that Biden has received more than four million votes more than the actual president.
