The Memorable Duet of Ronan Keating and Carola at Allsang på Grensen
An Unforgettable Musical Partnership
A memorable moment occurred in 2018 during the Norwegian music festival Allsang på Grensen when Irish pop star Ronan Keating teamed up with Swedish superstar Carola for a duet that has amassed over 21 million views on YouTube. In 1998, the two gave an incredible performance of “No Matter What,” a worldwide success for Keating’s band Boyzone.
A Combination of Success and Talent
Known for selling over 20 million records as a solo artist and an extra 25 million with Boyzone, Ronan Keating performed alongside Carola, a prominent figure in Swedish music since the 1980s. The audience was in awe of the combination of Carola’s strong voice and Keating’s sultry vocals during the performance.
An Emmy-winning Performance
The night’s high point was the duo’s performance, which included Carola’s beautiful voice enhancing Keating’s sincere delivery. The audience, which included a mother and daughter pair, was enthralled with the musical chemistry on stage and happily danced to the song’s beat.
Carola: A Legendary Scandinavian
There is no denying Carola’s influence on Scandinavian music. Her debut album “Främling” continues to sell more copies in Sweden than any record released by ABBA. Her triumph in the 1991 Eurovision Song Contest with “Fångad av en stormvind” cemented her place in music history; her winning performance has received over 350,000 views on YouTube.

INSIDE MARIAH CAREY’S SHOCKING SILENCE: WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE HER SISTER’S DEATH?
Mariah Carey did not talk to her sister, Alison, before she died. The reason? Alison’s struggle with drug addiction created a big distance between the two sisters.
Sources close to the family shared with TMZ that Mariah did not reach out to Alison in her final days. Instead, she spent the last week with their mother, Patricia, who was also very ill.
Mariah was not in contact with Alison, and sources say it’s because Alison struggled with addiction for many years. Mariah had tried to help her sister emotionally and financially, but it wasn’t enough to help Alison get clean.
Eventually, Mariah felt she had to show Alison tough love. She didn’t want to enable her sister’s behavior, so she decided to cut off contact and distance herself from Alison.
As we reported, Alison passed away over the weekend—the same day their mother died—without any contact from Mariah.
Mariah talked about her relationships with her mom and sister in her 2020 memoir, *The Meaning of Mariah Carey*. In the book, she claimed that Alison had once “drugged me with Valium, offered me a pinky nail full of cocaine, inflicted me with third-degree burns, and tried to sell me out to a pimp.”
