Going Home (lyrics):
Home, I'm making my way home
My mind's already there
yes my mind is
light, you're with me in the dark
light my way at night
let your light shine
Now, this burden weighs me down
the heaviest of weights
knocks me to the ground, right down to the
dew that sparkles on the ground
blue mountains loom above
blue mountains loom and I
I walk alone, one wish
won't be forgotten
never forget that
Long, is the path ahead
and though my body tires
and I have far to go
I know I´m going home
I know I'm going home
I know I'm going home
I know I'm going home
I know I'm going home
Home, I'm making my way home
my mind's already there
yes my mind is
Light, you're with me in the dark
light my way at night
let your light shine
Now, this burden weighs me down
the heaviest of weights
knocks me to the ground,
This burden weighs me down
This burden weighs me down
This burden weighs me down
This burden weighs me down - Hudba
Dear Asgeir, I heard this song very often. It kills me every time. The magic of the circular harmonies turns off the brain and exposes the heart to an open sky. Thank you very much.
I listened to this song every day for the last 4 months of my pregnancy. My dad had a massive stroke and my anxiety was very high. This song helped to centre me and helped me sleep.
This song (particularly this version) has never left me. So sweetly haunting it is
Why does this song not have a million more likes? He has the voice of an angel.
This will always remind me of travelling to my parents wonderful house in the Scottish Highlands just before it was sold. I knew it was the last time I would be going there. I was playing this as I took the last road there and could see the hills of The Isle of Arran in the distance across the water.
The backup singer is absolutely freakin incredible.
No, it's his friend, Júlíus. Ásgeir's brother is the singer in a band called "Hjálmar".
Like a true friend, Júlíus gave up a really good job paving roads to tour with Ásgeir, after only a little persuasion.
They're a joy to listen to.
this is "debatably" one of the most beautiful voices in music today
this is one those songs that slowly creeps in. I needed several listens to truly appreciate the depth that this song has. The harmony vocals are an essential part of it.
He is a very beautiful singer. So heartfelt and tender. We need that in this cold world today.The harmony is incredible. Perfectly blended, so pure.
I heard this song while flying from Seattle to Iceland - This is easily one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in English or Icelandic.
Love this song! Listened to it many times over the years, and it always takes me back to the same place in my mind. A quiet and somber yearning. For somewhere that feels like home.
This is my definition of THE perfect song. All of the emotion that you manage to capture in your voice brings such comfort to my soul.
so gifted, this song touches me deep...into my soul. makes me think of my eldest son, he left this world to go Home
...
So truly sorry for your loss.
This song is absolutely wonderful, I love this version so much, and the harmonies give me chills down my spine
I have musically-induced goosebumps.
March 2020 - home we are home. Burdens be gone. Love to all.
Found these people on accident, nothing led me here except for a thumbnail. A picture that looked like a man deep in thought or in pain. I had to click it to see what it was, it was beautiful.
Same experience
HOW have I not heard of Asgeir until August 2023?!?! EPIC!!!
I decided a while ago, that this song will be my I'm going to Iceland anthem whenever I go there. :-)
This song was on the Iceland Air in flight entertainment system on my way to Iceland. The Icelandic version is stunning. Listened to the song multiple times during the flight. A worthy sound track for any visit to Iceland.
And it will be my theme song when i finally move to norway.
Wouaw la claque que nous mets cette version acoustique !!
Chapeau bas messieurs !!
Voix et guitares en complète harmonie.
his voice make me fall in love with him
Heard this on... CBC Radio the other day and was blown away! Can't get enough of Ásgeir !!
this song made the beginning of 2014 for me, sure you make iceland proud.
I love this guy, I'm living outside of my homeland and being foreigner in other country is hard. It's incredible how the music is beyond of languages and cultures, thanks for this precious song :)
The harmony in this song is outstanding
I just can't get enough of this song........................
What a day to be alive
Three versions of this song on CZcams that I've managed to find of this song ... each one a delight. Listent to the Icelandic version of this one, if you haven't already ... what a treat!
This is completely flawless and beautiful. Goosebumps
I absolutely love this song! In the full or this raw version - it just gets right under my skin. How can someone create something that mirrors my inner state so clearly? Absolute fuck*ng poetic.
Thank you Asgeir for creating beautiful and meaningful songs. Your music has touched us profoundly to such an extent that we played this exact version of this song at our wedding this summer (between two lockdowns). It is a song full of emotion and even more meaning now to my wife and I. Love to those who always seek harmony.
Home, I'm making my way home
My mind's already there
Yes, my mind is
Light, you're with me in the dark
Light my way at night
Let your light shine
Now, this burden weighs me down
The heaviest of weights
Knocks me to the ground
Right down to the
Dew that sparkles on the ground
Blue mountains loom above
Blue mountains loom
And I walk alone, one wish
Won't be forgotten
Never forget that
Long, is the path ahead
And though my body tires
And I have far to go
I know I'm going home
Know I'm going home
Know I'm going home
Know I'm going home
Know I'm going home
Home, I'm making my way home
My mind's already there
Yes, my mind is
Light, you're with me in the dark
Light my way at night
Let your light shine
Now, this burden weighs me down
The heaviest of weights
Knocks me to the ground
This burden weighs me down
Burden weighs me down
Burden weighs me down
Burden weighs me down
Beautiful ❤️ I love Ásgeir.
He makes me feel good. Love his voice and lyrics.
Hrafnkell Hugi, I believe you, but will never know for sure. And it doesn't matter - I simply love it as it is. I have heard this song SO many times now and still Asgeirs vocal and play brings tears in my Danish eyes.
sublime. si je le croise je l'épouse.
Pure magic.
I think I prefer this to the album version although,
both are so beautiful in their own ways...
I so very much agree. I heard this version first and when I heard the album version it didn't feel a strong. I adore this version.
07meganann this is truly beautiful I agree it's better this way, there is so much feelings here
I'm so glad I saw this right now

I simply can't get over this.
it's the first time i hear this song , but it sounds so familiar. It's like going home :) good job !
Beautiful blend of Jeff Buckley/Antony & The Johnsons. Absolutely stunning
Such an amazing song !
One of the most beautiful song I've heard. Love it!
So genuine, so peaceful, so beautiful, I could go on and on.....
Oh Goodness dear boy...what a song you sing!.....a credit to beauty⚘
Best version by far.
I think he sounds just like Asgeir. The qualities in his voice are unique if you listen on good speakers.
This is Asgeir. The only difference is he's singing in English and not Icelandic.
I know this is Asgeir. Someone said he sounded like someone else. I just meant he has enough unique qualities in his voice to stand alone and sound like himself...my comment was tongue-in-cheeky...lol
...
MarYT961 I agree he sounds just like Asgeir,completely unique. I don't know why people here try to compare him when there's crearly no comparison.Haven't heard a voice like this in years!
Haha after I left that comment I thought you might've meant that
You were right on Kimberly. It's all good. I would love to see him perform live.
Je découvre cet artiste en lisant un Géo sur l' Islande, pays que j'aimerai visiter. Quelle voix cristalline, délicate. Je vais regarder d' autres titres.❤
Will have this played at my funeral. 🌼
just magik!
Often the most simple arrangements are the best.... It makes me think of Kings of Convenience or Whitest Boy Alive
So refreshing to hear something gentle, sensitive and thoughtful
encore une version sublime ! Quel talent !
i heard this song during my yoga class, then memorized it and hummed into Google. Found this amazing song !!! ❤
Man, the power music can have on your soul.
heartachingly pure.
