Everything from Wardruna is magical and beautifull.
Jarem G like all "ancient" times of European pagans! that is nice that there are ppl who know how to play this kind of music and even more exitet to see guys like you! ppl who appreciate this music and feel it!
It's just Einar Selvik really, he gives me chills everytime ...
Especially without that gay from gorgoroth
@Nefer While Einar Selvik adds a lot of awesomeness to this project Ivar Bjornson also does a lil more than his fair share.
Everything except Einar Selvik
Last year, Einar came to Montréal and did a private session during the day before his show with Wardruna later that night. It was awesome. There were just a few people there since it was a very small room. First come first served. Me and my girlfriend got there 3 hours early To make sure we would Have seats. Turns out we were the first ones there So ended up sitting right in front of him about 6 feet away. The guy is just amazing. Such an inteligent and articulate man. He talked about old norse mythology, Wardruna, Gorgoroth, runes, politics, Norway, school systems, spiritiality, history, how he makes the intruments himself, etc. It was just great man, like for real. He also demonstrated a few of his horns (intruments), and "lutes".
The cherry on top was when he said, "okay guys, i will now play a few songs for you if you want" and proceeded to play the Skaldic versions of Fehu and Voluspa. Dudes... I am a 30 years old man but couldnt hold the tears when he was playing right there alone in front of us.
Truly a great musician and an even greater man. So generous with his time. Took the time To talk and thank everyone that wanted To come and talk with him at the end of the présentation.
This and the show with Wardruna that night made this day one the best of my life.
(Sorry for small mistakes, first langage is french haha)
Great story! Thanks for telling us!
I hoped and dreamt to attend that private show and the main Wardruna concert in Montreal. Already booked tickets, flights, hotel, rental car, but wasn't able to come. I hope to see them in Winnipeg one day.
@@Xelastic omg man.. what a bummer... I totally understand how you mustve felt.. They are getting bigger everyday and even announced a fourth album. I would not be surprise they go on their first World tour after it comes out. I wouldnt be too worry about them comming close to where you are ;)
@@steve6548 🙂🙂🙂
woow
last time I was this early, Ymir still had his body parts.
Head!
u should get all the likes 🤣👌
Norse heads unite!
@@faisalm3250 That sweet moment when you i saw "norse" and not "vikings" ... man that felt good , the term "viking" is soooo misused nowadays X)
Love it
Wardruna is what the world needs right now if you're paying attention.
We desperately need more people to embrace and celebrate these cultures, and learn these talents. Einar is a goddamn wizard and we need more magic in the world.
And we need less people like you too
I have no words to describe how I feel when I hear Einar's voice! And this acoustic version is just breathtaking! ❤
Agreed
Agreed as hell
Truly awesome luv!
It needs no words, not necessary, just feelings and connection.
Listen to Eivor
I miss my land :((
My people
My tradition
My garden
All I have left is the music that brings me the memories back 🐉🔥🏞️❄️ 🐺
It's amazing how their music truly touches your soul, even if you're not a pagan.
Hey, my Norman French ancestors were among the first Norse people to leave Scandinavia, convert to Christianity and become civilized and prosperous but this speaks to me as much as it does to any neopagan.
This is Bragi's gift to Midgard - truly majestic.
Very much agreed
Absolutely - since Bragi was the one who was a living man - - -and was diefied at his death (sorry for spelling - Bragi was a living poet /bard and so revered for his words, charms and wisdom - that was regarded one of the gods after - i study with an archeologist and norse culture lecturer.
I always see you at Vindsvept, same music taste as me
One of the best versions of Fehu, for sure. Can't stop listening to this
2:38 i'm dead... he didn't have to go that hard
Also Einar is gorgeous and I love him
SAME his voice at his moment always gives me goosebumps
listening this in front of a graveyard.
Smoking gently under the tears of the sky.
Crying myself an elder sage
I lost.
May him live forever.
The world NEEDS a live album from Wardruna. This, and also Helvegen with Aurora, must not be limited to CZcams alone.
This is better than the original one. Change my mind.
Can't
Skjaldmø 💯
It’s way better
I don't know, I still need Gaahl's dark voice in this song. It creates a great contrast to Einar's higher melody
The original one has Tagelharpa along with Hardanger Fiddle, the bass drum is heard in more quantization, Gaahl's & Lindy Fay Hella's voice all of which makes it sound dark. This version is very subtle and pleasant. I listen to both of them in sequence.
In my toughest period in my life Einars music saved my life ❤. I listened to Wardruna and this and got a new strength in my life 😊. Thank you Einar with friends for your music ❤
Mr. Selvik's voice is beautiful. It stands on its own, without the need for elaborate arrangements that hide the singer's voice most of the time. Their songs are magical because they mix history and mythology. They offer feelings hidden within the core of each, extolling something that the past seemed to have and which the present lacks and the future may have. These are brilliant songs!
Oh wow, I love this: in 5, with the unexpected syncopation. When it started, I had no idea what was going on. Then it takes off, and it's like being slung through the air. Powerful.
Whenever I’m sitting at my altar looking up into the eyes of odin, thor, and frey I always have these guys or heilung bringing the power of breath behind me. Makes my experience sitting with the gods.. more. Hail to the gods. Stay true to your path.
Stay true to your path🙏🏽
I can listen to this extraordinary man sing for days
Es tut mir leid das mich warscheinlich niemand vetsteht. Aber eure Musik trifft mich da wo meine Gefühle anfangen und der Rest ungewiss ist aber mein tiefstes inneres landet dort wo meine Seele schon immer sein wollte. Danke das ihr mit eurer Musik mich dort abholt wo ich zuvor nie gewesen bin!!!
Ich verstehe dich, und was du sagst ist sehr schön. Ich bin nicht Deutsch, also mein Deutsch ist nich sehr gut
Ich verstehe dich Brüder, ich komme aus den Niederlanden :), was du hat gesagt war wirklich schön
Was für ein wundervoller Kommentar. Hast ein Gefühl in Worte gefasst, das ich bisher nicht beschreiben konnte.
Du sprichst mir aus der Seele mein Freund. Wir sehen uns in Valhalla!
Du hast auch meine Gefühle sehr gut beschrieben und zusammengefasst. Danke dafür
Just. Woaw.
I don’t have the words.
Einar, You Are The Best.
Never Give Up.
Never Change.
We all love you ❤️
I am French and you have all of my respect ❤️🇫🇷
The raw passion that comes from Einar when he performs is electric ⚡
The Skald version of Fehu was good, but definitely lacking when compared to the original studio version. This however, blows both others out of the water. Simply amazing. Had chills throughout the whole thing.
I actually prefer the Skaldic version, it seems more...intimate? Raw?
@The Flying Dolphin YES I love the collab with Aurora, that version of Helvegen is my go too.
Fehu always gave me goosebumps and now this... I am speechless, thank you Wardruna
mee too
Saw the healing mountains on recommendation and scrolled through their other videos, wow I'm impressed..
Jeg elsker Wardruna.
Hi bro, what's the english meaning for elsker please ?
Translating: I love Wardruna
@@IIpbIGyH Thanks bud, i'm trying to learn germanic and northern languages.
@@theoutsider2638 Microsoft translator actually does pretty good with Icelandic, Danish, Norwegian, German.... You get the jist. None of the translator get sentence structure dead on but it does best and gets most short phrases right, like "jeg elsker deg", I love you. Give it a shot, has helped me work on studies.
@@resdyadarkwatch8588 Well it's interesting, thank you.
Modern music cannot compare. Everything Einar and Wardruna produce is incredible. The energy is beautiful and entrancing.
I am so glad I found this guy and his group! They’ve become my life soundtrack! Skald on folks!
I think this music is truly a gift from the gods. More importantly, how it brings people together and returns to us voices from the past.
Fe causes strife amongst friends
The wolf feeds in the forest
Fe is joy to man
strife amongt kin
path of the serpent
The snake lies coiled
Hidden, it waits beneath
like a frost-covered field
Strife that kinsmen suffer.
This acoustic version sounds better than the album version (more clean, and the bass from that giant drum is more enjoyable).
Everything from Wardruna is just amazing!!!
Fehu always gives me that trance sensation. I feel a little like a berserker getting ready for battle haha
TRANCE _:drool:_ ^^
Listen to Heilung for that war-trance.
@@farazbhat9832 Thanks! I just listened _Krigsgaldr_ , what's you're favorite from them?
@@ElsewhereOnCZcams himpyer heimer, maybe.
Id suggest Garmarrna-Herr Maneligg. It's not war-like, but it's beautiful.
@@farazbhat9832 Ah yes I know Herr Maneligg, beautiful yes.
Himpyer Helmer?
I've discovered these through a friend, how amazing! The instruments, his voice, the language, how is this live! 😍
This is my favorite Wardruna song, and this version is fantastic.
Unbelievably beautiful! I always have goosebumps from Wardruna's masterpieces
Try listening to it sitting in the middle of the woods, its intense. I dont why but the goosebumps are a lot more intense and my eyes start to water, not like I'm crying, more like my body doesnt know what to do with the energy this music gives me... F*cking WILD
@@mm-nl3qz I imagine what it's like.. I wish to experience the same on myself
Those Scandinavians really know their polyrhythms and catchy time signatures
I'm 100% intoxicated by you guys. I have tickets to the Charlotte show which was supposed to happen this year. I got dressed up on the original date, not knowing it was moved (I'm a busy mom with a FT job who doesn't check their recreational email every day :)), I even put on blue eyeshadow bc Norse like bright colors. We drove to the venue and no one was there. In the parking lot was a family of deer. They just looked at us for a while as we went closer and took pictures. I took it as a sign. I'm so excited for 2021. Like my hubs said, 'it would be over if it happened tonight. Now we have a whole year of anticipation'. 🙂❤
Maximum chills listening to this, speaks directly to my soul.
I don't understand the lyrics but all sounds in this song (and all of your songs) are really beautiful and touching. There are many bands I love, but you are something different. When I listen to your song, I feel like the world in the eyes of human is too small. And now the sky, the earth, rivers, animals and even trees talk in the same language.
You guys are amazing
,Fan from Thailand :)
Just look up "Fehu runic poem". This song is basically a musical version of those poems.
The "Fehu" rune's literal meaning is cattle, and the derived meaning is wealth. The poems (and the song) talks of the dangers of wealth as it causes conflict between kin, as well as the importance of generosity if one wish to gain respect.
@@Tremulousnut Quite similar meaning has medieval poem/song Nummus (Money), you can listen to it here: czcams.com/video/4OfJ7wwWirk/video.html
Thank youvbjörn and all poeple from wadruna for this song and your musik that help my in the hard time my little girl is died and that. Help my to live to say i am strong and not to forget this and my

Thanks for the tip! I turned it up just in time!
Wardruna and Einar Selvik - I need nothing else
Just beautiful ❤
Why does this hit my soul....its like my soul recognises the music and energies
Thank you for everything, your songs are always touching! You even inspired me to learn norwegian when I heard Kvervandi the first time and I started a month ago.
I keep watching these videos from the festival over and over again, and every time.. _every_ time..tears in my eyes. This music just reaches into the listeners very core.
20 days and counting. Super excited!
So beautiful!
simply love you guys...
Your songs have touched and inspired me in so many ways! Thank you for sharing your talent!
Love it!
Brilliant, as always. Speaking to my soul 💖
These peeps deserve a Grammy lol
Awesome, nothing is better than this.
Beautiful. I love both versions
I love this song, it s magical. 😍😍😍
I am so happy that this acoustic version exists
Love it! Amazing Einar!
Wow!!!! I feel and love it !!!
Amazing! I can't wait to see you both in London
Awesome, just what i needed to lift my spirit today.
There’s just something about this version of the song that takes me to another place ❤️
When I first saw @Vikings during confinement I felt captivated by the history but specially by the music, then one day I found Helvegen and discovered Wardruna, I hear at least one song daily. I'm Ecuadorian, I'm mestiza which means I have indigenous as well as spanish roots, but I love nordik music. I admire viking history and I feel that somewhere in my family history one of my european ancestors should have been a viking.
Glad to see you playing with Ivar, Cheers
Got goosebumps, I just love this band!
Just beautiful
Magical, simply magical!
i love this song!
damn... so amazing... every single song from these guys..
Beautiful, you can feel nature on every chord
Эйнар, спасибо тебе за твое творчество
My Eyes Be like O.O !! Love Ivar and Einar . This is Amazing
You do the great job!!!!!
I remember the scene from Vikings when this song came up - while raiding the town ... immediately fell in love with it ... and also in viking's music overall
I just fell in love with this song 2 days ago!
Mich zieht es schon immer mehr in die Einsamkeit, weil ich da Ich sein kann. Auch weil ich das Gesamtbild der Erde besser verstehe. Kein Verstellen, keine Maske, kein Gehabe. Ich spüre die Wurzeln meiner nordeuropäischen Vorfahren in Musik wie dieser. Diese Musik unterstreicht meine Verbindung zur Spiritualität und Gott mehr als sonst etwas anderes.
Thank you to bring back our Earth connection
I would honestly adore a live album... Absolutely wonderful!
Everything they do enriches the soul! 🙌🏾
Every word that comes to mind when I’m listening to to all the music they make is simply an understatement! There is no word to exactly pinpoint the absolute feeling these guys pertain into their music!
Beautiful.
Awesome! I must have seen this masterpiece 1000 times! ❤️
This is just beautiful
Amazing...no words needed
The kind of music that speaks in your ears and also in your heart! Skal from BRazil!
Outstanding as always ❤️😊♥️🌟💖💯🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Just opening of other worlds, realms, powerful!
Thanks so much for this song.
Soy el Único que habla español que esta disfrutando de esta maravillosa melodía?

No. Adoro Wardruna y ni idea de una sola palabra. Su música es sencillamente extraordinaria.
no manito, sou do brasil
No no estas solo
Que Genial UwU Skol muchachos.
Очень красиво! Волшебное исполнение!
А вот и славянские язычники подъехали😂
Этого исполнителя Боги прислали
Приятно, что русскоязычные такое тоже слушают)
WOW......Just amazing WOW
Majestic combination. Just beautiful
What a wonderful unintentional birthday gift!!
