@@ommadawn8434 I recommend you her current band Cellar Darling (and of course her solo album under that title). They only have two albums so far, but it's really awesome piece of music.
This song is a true masterpiece the way they put all the instruments together. Not one drowns out another. You can hear the guitar in the background while the other instruments overlap it. Masterfully done. And her voice is amazing. The runs she does in the second verse, truly add something special to the song. So well done. i wish the song was about 30 seconds or so longer too.
I COULD mention songs on (at least) equal footing as this, but yea, it's quite the top tier (given a listen or 4 ) .. Folk metal (in general) has something "unique" about it, it has a "soul" (so to speak) that often calls (and reaches) out to the listener like nothing else

"hey, what do you guys do?" "we're a metal band" "cool. you there in the middle, what do you play?" "bagpipes." "huh? what about your friend there?" "the harp." "huh."
the guys played soulfully and the soloist is beyond praise beauty and talent -the guys of the whole group are talents - the song has sunk into my heart - I listen to it very often
Ajang Rohmana It's true. I went walking around in the woods just the other day; and, next thing I know, I’m playing the hurdy-gurdy and head banging. Which isn’t as easy at it might sound, I can tell you that much. Like trying to pat your head and rub your tummy at the same time, so it is.
As I'm listening to this, I'm reminiscing about walking through the southern Bavarian woods a few years ago and how peaceful and serene it was during the dawn in winter and I'm missing it terribly. The call of the mountains is very, very real indeed.
And write songs in a dead Celtic dialect "In an interview, Swiss folk metal band Eluveitie said that some of their songs are written in a reconstructed form of Gaulish. The band asks scientists for help in writing songs in the language.[81]The name of the band comes from graffiti on a vessel from Mantua (c. 300 BC).[82] The inscription in Etruscan letters reads eluveitie, which has been interpreted as the Etruscan form of the Celtic (h)elvetios ("the Helvetian"),[83] presumably referring to a man of Helvetian descent living in Mantua." "The Helvetii (Latin: Helvētiī [hɛɫˈweːti.iː]), anglicized as Helvetians, were a Celtic tribe or tribal confederation occupying most of the Swiss plateau at the time of their contact with the Roman Republicin the 1st century BC. According to Julius Caesar, the Helvetians were divided into four subgroups or pagi.Of these Caesar names only the Verbigeni and the Tigurini, while Posidonius mentions the Tigurini and the Tougeni (Τωυγενοί). They feature prominently in the Commentaries on the Gallic War, with their failed migration attempt to southwestern Gaul (58 BC) serving as a catalyst for Caesar's conquest of Gaul." ...as far as I know the Helvetii were fu*king brutalized by the Roman Empire like all the Celts, fu*k the Roman Empire! They're gone and the Celts are still here 😄

Did the calculations, it's actually only one listen shy of five hours. Very impressive, I couldn't have done it. Listening to the same song twice in a row is a challenge for me.
I’m in the Rocky Mountains of America. I love this band and I love this song! Once you have lived in the mountains it gets into your soul. I understand the call, because every time I left I ended up back in them.
Lyrics: Against the waves, with our swords in our hands Against the sea, with our backs to the walls Against distress, in the presence of our enemies Against the storms, roaring at our faces A cry rang out throughout the skies A beckon, the flight of the cranes The call of the mountains The call of the Alps The call home The tune in our hearts The song of the mountains What's that stir, so blatant in our sallying hearts?

@@matteotosin1044 I don't know about Italian but they have a few songs in Gaulish. I always thought that was pretty impressive since it's a dead language and nowhere near as common as something like Latin.
As someone whole lived all her life near mountains and had to move away this song brings me to tears. "The call of home" really hits in the heart. How I wish I could show this song to my father, who was a true mountain man.
+RandomBattleXP Other party comes across a bunch of dead orcs and confused bards. "How did you kill them?" "We were just singing and they all keeled over, we have no clue what happened."
Good luck on your separate paths. Best wishes to everyone in/or leaving the band. Looking forward to Ana's future projects and Eluveitie's new band mates and new album. *horns up*
I don't think that Elevetie realized the amazing power they had with this song. It is still my favorite song they've ever done and it shows their true potential if they could get back together.
i only discovered eluveitie a few weeks back and listened to alot of the songs, it's really good discovery 👍 i like where people review the eluveitie songs, they seem really impressed, even the vocal coaches that review.
i didn’t realise that chirgel and nicole were a couple, i noticed in alot of 2023 footage of eluveitie that chirgel is missing, it's like he took some time out on that tour.
@@gazster he was unable to do a lot of the US tour dates as he had some family thing happen. They posted about it on their FB page, but apparently they still managed to rock!
False advertising. I've walked through the forests of Skyrim a thousand times, and never came across a single metal band. Bethesda's got some splainin' to do.
Anna Murphy Now, now. They're not all bad. My country produces a golden band every once in a while. (Longer then I'd like). But even with that in mind, for a good band to arise from all the rap and mainstream gas that so many breathe in here. It's nothing short of a show of determination and strength in the metal that they want to show to everyone so that we can have more freedom in what we choose to listen to.
IgnisKing rap music promotes violence, rape, and drugs in of which my Queen here and all the rest like her are not screwed up like all the Americans are. Much better than the Americans and I will stand up for them all.
Thank you for this beautiful metal song. My fiance John David Spearman, who has passed away. Loved this song, this meant so much to him. He had and still has respect towards his heritage ❤
This video is refreshing to me all over again. This song always put John David in his happy place. Much respect and appreciation to Eluveitie. Passionate and talented musicians and vocalist. John David understood them, that was one thing that made me happy.
"Where do you film your music video's?" "The woods." "Ok very strange, lets move on. What type of band is it?" "A metal band." "Typical. What do you play?" "The Flute."
Metal is probably the most complex and varied genre in all of music. You can make it go with anything and make it sound good. It doesn't have to be growling to be metal. Power metal, thrash, folk, death/black, industrial, progressive, and God knows how many others. Metal has more sub-genres than the music industry has main genres.
+David Maglioli Is that so? I'm a lot into metal and I've always wondered if that is the only reason why I know so many subgenres of it and I'm just not aware of the variety of let's say hip hop, which I'm not knowledgeable about. So other genres are really more limited in variety as metal? That would be sad :(
+David Maglioli Ever heard of Jazz? It might not sound as different as the metal genres, but there are various styles too. I know that you can't compare Metal and Jazz, just wanted to say that.

Best song they have ever done, I keep coming back to this one over and over again. I love the mix of traditional Celtic instruments and modern rock such a fascinating sound.
As someone who shares the same first name, and have been a listener since 2016 (I knew of them earlier and regret not checking them out), I strongly agree
I saw a cover of Lamb of God - "Grace", played by a women on a hurdey gurdey, and a poster of this band was on the wall behind her. I just had to check you guys out. I am very glad I did. I enjoyed this very much!!
Why do so many care about the name of genres? If this is enjoyable then what does it matter what it's called? For all I care, this could be unicornpussykillcore metal and I'd still be listening to the song.
I saw them in a 9GAG post. 3 and a half years ago I moved from a crappy capital city to a mountain city. This song captures the essence of what I feel like up there, there is this timeless like presence of the ancients and everything that was and will be. And it makes sense, I looked it up and only ONE of the layers you might see on a side of a cliff takes millions of years to form. I am not very religious and I don't go to church, but if you want to speak with God, you go on the mountains. There you'll find your answers.
This is Switzerland in a song. Forget about the stereotypical (though charming) yodelling, accordions, horns and cowbells for a minute and go back to the Swiss routes that to this day are still present. Stout independence, loyalty to your ancestral homeland and the longing to return to the Swiss alps. Funnily enough, the term 'nostalgia' was first coined by physicians in the 16th century when Swiss mercenaries became sick and depressed. It was concluded that years of campaigning abroad made them miss their mountaneous home and all the things that came with it - the meadows, snow on the peaks, decent cheese maybe. I'm also very drunk. Xx
Not Swiss myself but I know all too well 'the call of the mountains' (I'm part Austrian through the maternal lineage; part Ukrainian on that side too - don't ask) and whenever I get over there and visit the Alpine regions, I get that feeling that I am, well, home. There is nothing quite like gazing over the valleys on a clear day when all you can hear is the sound of the crickets in the long grass, the calls of the birds and the occasional cowbell - all I can say is that it enriches the soul and lifts the heart in ways that have to be experienced to be understood.
- So it's a metal song? Any instruments besides guitars and drums? - Yeah I was thinking violin... - Uuuu, classy! - And a flute, a harp, bagpipes, mandolin... -... - And we're gonna end with a children's choir. Oh and we need 3 different electric guitars, obviously.
FERNANDO2TYNN CUAMATZI I'm from Germany. You can see that because of my name. So obviously I'm NOT from Spain. So why do you write spanish?? Although I could understand your comment because I'm learning spanish in school
Hendrik Müller soy de un lugar en donde la musica es otro mundo y relativamente me gusta eluveitie , el sonido que emite bajo la circunferencia de prolongación por cada nota ... quizás no entiendas
FERNANDO2TYNN CUAMATZI I don't unterstand what you said. I can say it again: write in english! Because nobody can understand what you want to say, including me.
its new to me, a stray form typical metal, its fresh new edge and mix. im liking this and operatic metal too. computers open up a window of "easy find" should have got one 25 years ago. hahaha
I saw this in my recommended and wound up bookmarking it a few months ago. I decided to play it and wish that I had so a long time ago! Absolutely incredible!
I can say with absolute certainty that I'm never happier than when I'm out in the mountains with friends. Hiking, climbing, camping, doesn't matter. Just so long as it’s the mountains.
Same. I grew up in the mountains. I live in a city now, but a part of me still wants to return there on every possible occasion. Everyone always goes to the sea for vacation and I'm like - "Nah, mountains time!"
@@marceld.7382 Bro it's pretty obvious that this type of music isn't mainstream anymore. Music like this doesn't get hundreds of millions of views just as the other hip hop and rap songs get these days. Therefore, artists aren't much interested in making such music. I do acknowledge that good songs with good vocals and melody are still being made but they're not as great in number as they used to be some time ago.
@@muhammadabdullah3467 this kind of music has never been mainstream. It's always behind the constantly changing pop, folk, jazz or whatever is the current decade's mainstream. Difference is that while mainstream music dies out, this always stays in playlists.
This song gives me so many different feels. I'm Irish and Norwegian by blood, and my hometown is Denver. I haven't lived in Colorado for a long time, and almost everyday, I hear the call of the mountains. I want to go home.
Brian Massey - - Aurora, CO & from here, we're trapped between Buckley AFB & D.I.A. But we can hear & see "The Call Of The Mountains", gotta' love them Rocky Mountains! Maybe one day you can go to where your bloodline hails from Pally - - peace Bro.
Loveland CO born and raised, and I've just discovered this band a few weeks ago and they're my most recent obsession. Great to see some CO representation here! I love to camp in our beautiful Rocky Mountain backyard, and I'll be sure to jam this band on my speaker as I take in the idyllic beauty and enjoy a strong beverage.
Fun fact for those are unaware: Eluveitie being a swiss band released this song, in adition to it's English version, in every native language spoken in Switzerland (Which are 4 bloody languages: Rumansch, Swiss-German, French and Italian)
Don't worry about it, she won't reach the ground before every man on earth gets his heart crushed and dies. So basically, we won't live long enough to witness that. You have every right to worry if you're a girl tho 😂
I’m watching this in 2024 and this is still one of the best feel good songs ever. This song belongs to Anna. Incredible talent!
Agreed it's still very good.
anna has so much more character than fabienne, rebirth killed the band's soul in my opinion.
@@UA-cam-Censorship-Police I miss Anna
@@ommadawn8434 I recommend you her current band Cellar Darling (and of course her solo album under that title). They only have two albums so far, but it's really awesome piece of music.

Lyrics:
Against the waves, with our swords in our hands
Against the sea, with our backs to the walls
Against distress, in the presence of our enemies
Against the storms, roaring at our faces
A cry rang out throughout the skies
A beckon, the flight of the cranes
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts
The song of the mountains
What's that stir, so blatant in our sallying hearts?
What's that urge, that lifted up our longing eyes?
What's that ring, echoing from the leaden skies?
What's that augur, resounding from the lyre's strings?
A cry rang on in the sibilant winds
A behest, the outcry of the cranes
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts
The song of the mountains
The voice in the wind, the saint in the sky
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts, the call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts, the song of the mountains

I used to have a mountain range behind my house in Montana when I was younger I miss it a lot
An adventuring party made entirely of Bards?
Sure, what the hell.
you...I like you.
+RandomBattleXP Other party comes across a bunch of dead orcs and confused bards. "How did you kill them?" "We were just singing and they all keeled over, we have no clue what happened."
None would stand a chance!
Dude, I literally LMFAO when i read your comment.
It would be like...
"I'mma skin you al... Wait..." \../
I love Anna and Fabienne. They are so beautiful and talented. I love this band, God bless them
Gingertail brought me here. And I have never been more happy.
Same. I know Eluvitie so I went to check out this song so I've heard the original before I listen to Gingertail's version

This song absolutely blew my mind, I'm sad to have just found it but happy to hear it from now on
I stumbled on this by accident and I was like "HOLY SHIT!"
Same here dude.
I was just lookin into new bands n music. gets lame hearing the same songs over and over again

Same here!!
haha, me too man!
Good luck on your separate paths. Best wishes to everyone in/or leaving the band. Looking forward to Ana's future projects and Eluveitie's new band mates and new album. *horns up*
this is one of the catchiest songs I have ever heard, this is one of my all-time favorites as well such a well-written and performed song.
I don't think that Elevetie realized the amazing power they had with this song. It is still my favorite song they've ever done and it shows their true potential if they could get back together.
i only discovered eluveitie a few weeks back and listened to alot of the songs, it's really good discovery 👍 i like where people review the eluveitie songs, they seem really impressed, even the vocal coaches that review.
They are still together. I’m going to see them tomorrow.
i didn’t realise that chirgel and nicole were a couple, i noticed in alot of 2023 footage of eluveitie that chirgel is missing, it's like he took some time out on that tour.
@@gazster he was unable to do a lot of the US tour dates as he had some family thing happen. They posted about it on their FB page, but apparently they still managed to rock!
They split 😢
This song is so beautiful

Beautiful melody
Anna Murphy You are one of my Queens of music. Beautiful melody
Anna Murphy Love it. You and all the women of metal over their have America beat.
Anna Murphy I have spoken the truth. They all are horrible over here.
Anna Murphy Now, now. They're not all bad. My country produces a golden band every once in a while. (Longer then I'd like). But even with that in mind, for a good band to arise from all the rap and mainstream gas that so many breathe in here. It's nothing short of a show of determination and strength in the metal that they want to show to everyone so that we can have more freedom in what we choose to listen to.
IgnisKing rap music promotes violence, rape, and drugs in of which my Queen here and all the rest like her are not screwed up like all the Americans are. Much better than the Americans and I will stand up for them all.

Thank you for this beautiful metal song. My fiance John David Spearman, who has passed away. Loved this song, this meant so much to him. He had and still has respect towards his heritage ❤
Sorry for your loss
This video is refreshing to me all over again. This song always put John David in his happy place. Much respect and appreciation to Eluveitie. Passionate and talented musicians and vocalist.
John David understood them, that was one thing that made me happy.

Завжди super. Поважаю цю групу багато років. Їхній стиль, самобутність, це неймовірно.
Metal is probably the most complex and varied genre in all of music. You can make it go with anything and make it sound good. It doesn't have to be growling to be metal. Power metal, thrash, folk, death/black, industrial, progressive, and God knows how many others. Metal has more sub-genres than the music industry has main genres.
well said
+David Maglioli Is that so? I'm a lot into metal and I've always wondered if that is the only reason why I know so many subgenres of it and I'm just not aware of the variety of let's say hip hop, which I'm not knowledgeable about. So other genres are really more limited in variety as metal? That would be sad :(
+Deathly Phobia
Atheist rap and Nerdcore FTW!
+David Maglioli Ever heard of Jazz? It might not sound as different as the metal genres, but there are various styles too. I know that you can't compare Metal and Jazz, just wanted to say that.
You might want to look up a genre called "Classical Music"...
Against the waves, with our swords in our hands
Against the sea, with our backs to the walls
Against distress, in the presence of our enemies
Against the storms, roaring at our faces
A cry rang out throughout the skies
A beckon, the flight of the cranes
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts
The song of the mountains
What's that stir, so blatant in our sallying hearts?
What's that urge, that lifted up our longing eyes?
What's that ring, echoing from the leaden skies?
What's that augur, resounding from the lyre's strings?
A cry rang on in the sibilant winds
A behest, the outcry of the cranes
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts
The song of the mountains
The voice in the wind
The signs in the sky
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts
The song of the mountains
The call of the mountains
The call of the Alps
The call home
The tune in our hearts
The song of the mountains
Christian Herraiz nicely done :P
;-)
thx
gut gemachtes Vido , und ein ansprechendes Lied
Best song they have ever done, I keep coming back to this one over and over again. I love the mix of traditional Celtic instruments and modern rock such a fascinating sound.
All these years later, and this is still the Platonic Ideal of a folk metal song.
As someone who shares the same first name, and have been a listener since 2016 (I knew of them earlier and regret not checking them out), I strongly agree
This showed up on one of my playlists, I currently have 3 albums ordered and will be ordering more, plus I'm sharing this with everyone
Até hoje não acredito que um Folk Metal conseguiu tudo isso de views! Parabéns ao Eluveitie!
I absolutely love this Celtic Viking Metal Band.... Hardcore and Angelical Voices mixed together... Totally Awesome Metal Band!!!!
The song itself is amazing. The music video makes it even better. You can really see each member of the band putting everything into the song. ❤
no compredo

I saw a cover of Lamb of God - "Grace", played by a women on a hurdey gurdey, and a poster of this band was on the wall behind her. I just had to check you guys out. I am very glad I did. I enjoyed this very much!!
+K Mait Same here, except I've heard this song before and I noticed that that was the band.
+LadderOfTheGeese Then you should check out their song inis mona and the band korpiklaani
Why do so many care about the name of genres? If this is enjoyable then what does it matter what it's called? For all I care, this could be unicornpussykillcore metal and I'd still be listening to the song.
You said it!
If it was called that then i'd listen even if it sucked! :P
Unicornpussykillcore metal. I like the sound of that.
*****
Ache to be different
Now we need a unicornpussykillcore metal band.
I saw them in a 9GAG post. 3 and a half years ago I moved from a crappy capital city to a mountain city. This song captures the essence of what I feel like up there, there is this timeless like presence of the ancients and everything that was and will be. And it makes sense, I looked it up and only ONE of the layers you might see on a side of a cliff takes millions of years to form. I am not very religious and I don't go to church, but if you want to speak with God, you go on the mountains. There you'll find your answers.
This is Switzerland in a song. Forget about the stereotypical (though charming) yodelling, accordions, horns and cowbells for a minute and go back to the Swiss routes that to this day are still present. Stout independence, loyalty to your ancestral homeland and the longing to return to the Swiss alps. Funnily enough, the term 'nostalgia' was first coined by physicians in the 16th century when Swiss mercenaries became sick and depressed. It was concluded that years of campaigning abroad made them miss their mountaneous home and all the things that came with it - the meadows, snow on the peaks, decent cheese maybe. I'm also very drunk. Xx
Not Swiss myself but I know all too well 'the call of the mountains' (I'm part Austrian through the maternal lineage; part Ukrainian on that side too - don't ask) and whenever I get over there and visit the Alpine regions, I get that feeling that I am, well, home. There is nothing quite like gazing over the valleys on a clear day when all you can hear is the sound of the crickets in the long grass, the calls of the birds and the occasional cowbell - all I can say is that it enriches the soul and lifts the heart in ways that have to be experienced to be understood.
I'm swiss and i can absolutely agree, especially the last term ;-)
The Swiss are weird. No wonder they are neutral in everything lol
Lets just better say 90% of middle and north Europe.
I'm Swiss too, and I totally agree! Couldn't live abroad... ;)
These guys are absolutely 1000% fantastic and i love them
Um... I love this. First time coming across this band. I love the traditional instruments. Folk metal, whatever the label... this song is awesome.
2:21 The flute solo goes so hard and still gives me chills to this day 🔥
- So it's a metal song? Any instruments besides guitars and drums?
- Yeah I was thinking violin...
- Uuuu, classy!
- And a flute, a harp, bagpipes, mandolin...
-...
- And we're gonna end with a children's choir. Oh and we need 3 different electric guitars, obviously.
This song sounds better with a triangle
but no cowbell
Definitely no cowbell!
Listen to me, Gene - I want you to really explore the space this time - but with an actual cow
🐄 🐮
That’s not a mandolin, that’s an Irish bouzouki.
When you see the Alps for the first time, it will be love at first sight. Sooner or later you will want to live there.
This just never gets old ♡♡♡♡
Her voice is so beautiful! She has to be the singer of her own band after leaving Eluveitie!!
She is. She, Ivo, and Merlin have a new project called Cellar Darling.

its just excellent music, beautiful vocals plus instruments not typically found in metal.
its new to me, a stray form typical metal, its fresh new edge and mix. im liking this and operatic metal too. computers open up a window of "easy find" should have got one 25 years ago. hahaha

Truly one of the best. 10 years later and still as moving as it was on day 1.
I'll never forget the feeling when I heard this song for the first time. Absolutely amazing!!
Thank you Eluveitie for this beautiful song. I love it! Just keep it like this!
Can't they got a new singer
My reasons for watching this on repeat
1. The scenery
2. Bagpipe
3. The drummer is beautiful
I wish there were more people like you and me.
What about the flute!?
My 2 year old and 1 year old twins love this song. All three just shout and sing towards the end and I love it! ❤️
I always enjoy this song before I hike up the mountains around my home...what more can I say besides this is a fantastic song and Band
Eu estou simplesmente apaixonado por essa canção 🎶😍❤🙂🤘🇧🇷
I can say with absolute certainty that I'm never happier than when I'm out in the mountains with friends. Hiking, climbing, camping, doesn't matter. Just so long as it’s the mountains.
Same. I grew up in the mountains. I live in a city now, but a part of me still wants to return there on every possible occasion. Everyone always goes to the sea for vacation and I'm like - "Nah, mountains time!"
Whuuut? Why am i only now discovering this. A minute in...badass

one of my all time favourite songs that ive ever heard.
why did music like this die out? such amazing vocals, harmony. and genre blending, such an amazing song yet this type of music is hard to find
Yeah bro. Things are supposed to evolve with time. Seems it's the opposite with music.
@@muhammadabdullah3467 The song is from 2014, that's basically yesterday. And the band ist still active. What are you talking about?
@@marceld.7382 Bro it's pretty obvious that this type of music isn't mainstream anymore. Music like this doesn't get hundreds of millions of views just as the other hip hop and rap songs get these days. Therefore, artists aren't much interested in making such music. I do acknowledge that good songs with good vocals and melody are still being made but they're not as great in number as they used to be some time ago.
@@muhammadabdullah3467 this kind of music has never been mainstream. It's always behind the constantly changing pop, folk, jazz or whatever is the current decade's mainstream.
Difference is that while mainstream music dies out, this always stays in playlists.
@@marceld.7382 A lot of musicians left the band. They changed more than 10 people. It's not the same band anymore.

(Which are 4 bloody languages: Rumansch, Swiss-German, French and Italian)

Don't worry about it, she won't reach the ground before every man on earth gets his heart crushed and dies. So basically, we won't live long enough to witness that.
