I finally sat down and read some of the comments here - thank you all for the kind words. Im truly blown away by all of this! Love and respect.
björn Stefánsson you were so amazing! The emotion from you and the song overwhelmed me!
Completely amazing!
You were so full of emotion, it perfectly translated through the song, one word: AMAZING!
björn Stefánsson you are awesome you capture the song
björn Stefánsson You were amazing! You deserve every compliment given.
These actors sure know how to emote.
They should all do the Lip Sync Battle and let's see who's the best 😂
Kulaz Lorenz the guy from ''crystals'' is the best
Vagia Kontodima crystal and empire best lip sync :D
Vagia Kontodima old man is the best!!!
YES Empire and Crystals are my favorite lip syncers
This actor was perfect for this video, his face is so expressive, but his move ants for the song are so stiff, but full of emotion. It's like something is trying so hard to be human but struggling.. I don't know maybe it's just me but this guy did an amazing job
Agreed! So much emotion!
It's my favorite video!
coolat1127 fully agree! Absolutely beautiful performance!
The raw emotion is captivating
@@orlandomochi1085 lol made my Day
This dude expressed 10x the emotional range of Riverdale actors in less than 4 minutes.
I agree
Lmao!
Lol hahaha
It’s because he wasn’t acting and it was coming from his heart
@@chloepayne9973 hello chloe uwu
I feel like Of Monsters and Men sing about whatever the fuck they want and it's completely brilliant.
+Farid Audee what is it you think they are singing about???
+Bobby VonholtzAter It's very good idea. I love it. And it isn't that they are singing about anything. It is, but everything have meaning. Deep meaning.
+Farid Audee IKR
+Farid Audee Finaly, somone who does NOT want to sing about drugs, money, butts or even just plain love. Purely philosophical and in a way innocent.
Right
CAPS LOCK ISN'T BIG ENOUGH TO DISPLAY THE EXCITEMENT I HAVE FOR THIS SONG.
Paco Sinbad THEN ADD EXCLAMATION MARKS!!! THEY ALSO AMPLIFY THE EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!!
*AND BOLDFACE!!!!!*
Paco Sinbad *SO MUCH EXCITEMENT!!!!!!! CAN'T CONTROL MYSELF!!!!!!!! GOING TO EXPLODE!!!!!!!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
JUST ADD MORE WORDSSSS AND EXTENND EACH ONEEE USSINNNG MOOOOORE AND MOOOORE LETTEEEEEERSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!1!1!!1!!1!!!!!!!!!
*OKAAAAAAYYYY GUUYYYYSSSS!!!!11!!1!!!*
"Breathe in, Breathe out, Let the human in."
"We're not letting him in, damnit."
*knock knock* "please , I just wanna be friends!"
"No Steven! We've told you too many times , after that "incident""
This song describes perfectly that "beastly" emotional side of you that can get out of control when someone hurts you and make you feel devastated and torn apart. And agony of trying to control it and trying to let go. Well, I say, don`t control it. If something hurts you and you feel the need suffer, then do it, you have the right to it. Don`t cage that animal, that will only make it more dangerous. You don`t need to tame the beast, and it will calm down on its own when you realize you have something else, something more within you that the ones who hurt you cannot take away from you.
great song I had to get past my initial prejudice just not my style but it definitely grew on me since I used this video to learn the song on guitar and vocals I play a few other OMAM I take it you're an actor? Do you play or sing? Anyway, you won me over!
I love it, and it's true...We have to feel
....Thank you, Zvezdana...for this. You'll never know how much your words were needed at this time. A god-send... Truly.
Until you end up in jail
Thank you, thank you
This guys hair gel could survive the apocalypse.
So true
That guy was so happy! LOL
Turi Caederynmab best coment i ever seen in youtube
Turi Caederynmab nice to see a band making a lyrical vid entertaining!
IM SCREAMING OMG WHY WAS THAT SO FREAKING FUNNY
Please never stop making music, every song you make is a master piece!
They could sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and make me cry
Of Mumford & Bastille My feels exactly.
SaikouSan ***** My feels exactly too
***** As long as people buy their music, they won't.
***** What I was trying to say is that they need our support :)
I love these videos so much. They are so simple yet they have so much emotion.
right!!
me too
Man this Guy has so much energy, i was totally wasted from work ( 11 Hour Shift) and it took me a felt 10 Minutes to climb the Stairs and i was half dancing while listening to this.
I don't think it's its intended meaning, but I always listen to this song when I'm feeling anxious. The rhythm (not too slow, but not too fast either), the images it paints: the caged beast, "breathe in breathe out, let the human in", are exactly the things I need to hear to calm down. But I think one of the beautiful sides of music and art in general is that everyone gives it their own interpretation. Thank you, this song has really helped me a lot ❤
omg same. it autoplayed when I was having a panic attack. exactly "breathe in breathe out"
the actor blow my mind he is so amazing and powerfull with that touch of weirdest
my fav song from this band
I agree with you on that
I agree with you on that
I agree with you on that
+Ziko Frankchtain Thousand Eyes has the best actor in my opinion, But I respect yours.
+JTmaxx I think Organs has the best one, actually.
This album is like the best thing ever
I wonder what other albums can top it...
Probably not many nowadays lol
Dude, do you have spotify, rdio or other stuff? Would really like to hear some of your fav songs because i love the bands on your cover haha
Willy D um I think I do? Lol
wanna tell me your name there ? :)
Whenever I hear this song,I want to go and run through forests.
same thoughts xD
Best song ever
Lotta-Maria Suokko same
If you want more songs like that Lord Huron has a similar effect, especially their Lonesome Dreams and Strange Trails albums.
I love this song much I can stop repeating it.
Naked? Or nah?
I think this song represents every single one of us. It shows we all are the same and that no one can stop us from being who we are, no one can change people's nature. Every time I hear it, it helps me remember to accept people, and I find this a very precious thing.
Mark my words... Of Monsters and Men will be remembered as one of the greatest bands ever existed. Those kids have too much passion for what they do and you notice it right away. It seems that their debut album was made from a band that already had a 10-year-experience sense. And this new album just started to make their sound more mature and focus on what they want to achieve. Quoting Noel Gallagher when referring to The Smiths (as now I refer to OMAM), "they are a really great band...I mean, they are really, really, really, really great"
It's been years and this video still leaves me literally breathless. The way the actor portrays this song is just so pure and so damn raw and I feel like my head explodes (in a very good way) with the pure FEELING of it all. Wow.
"let the human in"
what does it want
😂😂 oh jesus
probably a Jehovah's Witness at the door
About tree fiddy
+StrawberryWafers B really??rude.....
Anaya Morrison triggered
This actor made me feel the music in a way that I can't explain
I fight every day against my suicidal thoughts
And I was happy for 3 minutes
I hope you're okay.. God bless you.. Love yourself please ! 💖
I know I'm a random stranger, but hugs and love
Stay Alive.. The world needs you even though it may not feel like it. We need You
Much love hope one day you can find peace i also fight those nasty thoughts and then i look at my son and remember why im here to protect and help that kid achieve what he wants in life and to be the best and most loving dad i can be
Hey! How are you doing?
This series of videos is amazing
I just love how all the characters look so alive and overfilled with emotions! I noticed that after every of these videos I even start to breathe faster lol :D
But I have to say that old man is the best!!
I have to say those fantastic actors have made OMAM's videos perfect.
Cao Viet Hung are those really actors or just random people? because i would definitly want to see them as actors in a movie
WazzupMotsch just a way of mine to say "they are acting like not acting at all"
For me, I dont think they are professional actors. The way they expressed their feelings were truly from their own souls.
Cao Viet Hung they are professional actors in case you are wondering
these actors are really skilled to get every single syllable while acting :O
He's really feeling it wow
Você esta Segura Disso? parece que sim.
I come back to this video once in a while, and I'm astonished by the actor every single time. The way he portrays not only emotion, but, in a sense, a whole story only through his facial expressions is nothing short of bewitching. My favourite part is at 1:30. His expression starts by conveying worry, then is smoothly followed up by hope, some sort of expectation, into a sudden and momentary ectasy of the thought of "letting the human in", just to be overshadowed immediately by self-loathing for even having such a fantasy. Such a wide spectre of emotion is covered in mere 7 seconds. Pair that with the song and you have yourself a pretty darn interesting story. Of course, the way I interpreted the scene, as well as the whole video, could be way off the mark, but nonetheless, big kudos to Björn Stefánsson for making a great song into a darn mesmerizing performance.
HOW is this not popular?? I repeat. how is this not popular???
haha you 're right 😊👍
+Cashmere KAt It isn't?
That's what I've been asking myself since this band started. Only one person I know listens to their music, and it's cus their a creepy stalker who copies whatever I do... They only know like, 2 of their songs, and now they think they can have a full blown conversation with me... Pls help me
+Cashmere KAt It's moderately popular. Really deserves to be more so, though.
When things become very popular they just lose it's essence.Things are good just as they're,in my opinion
How could i not know about Of Monsters and Men earlier, theirs song are amazingly beautiful
I am in the same boat, I just found out about them!
Lê Thanh Tùng right what I'm saying!
exactly 😮
Same
same :'(
I heard Little Talks years ago and wondered what happened to the band. I'm not disappointed that's amazing.
Hands down, One of the most brilliant songs of this era.
This was posted *3 Hours* ago?!
So why do I feel like this songs has been part of my life for as long as I can remember...?
_what if it was...?_
Can't wait for Wolves without teeth! My fav song in the album so far!
James The JaggiHunter How can you have a favorite? It's so hard for me to decide!!
Nick Johnston Personally I didn't like Thousand eyes simply because it gets too loud near the end, but the lyrics and melody of all the songs are amazing!
David Shini I decided because it was the one song where both Nanna and Raggi took different parts in singing the song (Like little talks) and the way they sang the lyrics "You ho-ver like a humming bird, haunt me in my sleep. You're sailing from another world, sinking in my see." Absolutely Magical.
James The JaggiHunter I'm stuck between Wolves Without Teeth and Winter Sound... That's as far as I can narrow it down....
James The JaggiHunter how do you find the songs? the only ones I could find is the ones on youtube. is there a website or something? and also my fav is hunger
"Breathe in, breathe out. Let the human in."
this song is so therapeutic. I've spent my most depressed times while listening to this song like thousand times.
This song makes me want to go out into the night and scream my heart out while running as fast as I can. I love Of Monsters and Men so much, their songs actually make you feel stuff, whenever I'm feeling down this song makes me feel alive.
If Henry Cavill and Brendan Urie had a baby, he would look like this
or hugo weaving
Or maybe Henry Cavill and Steve Buscemi . 😁
My father looks very similar, I had to brag. :)
I always wondered how this lyric videos from OMAM would sound like if they actually didnt mute the actor, instead mute Nanna and Ragnar... it would be cool to see some behind the scenes and bloopers.
I wonder if they had to do many takes because Nanna and Raggi were lip syncing it and making funny faces behind the camera
Of Mumford & Bastille they should totally upload behind the scenes! Though it would take some of the magic away
Nanna and ragnar shall never be muted!!
Can't believe it's 5 years already. Sometime it randomly pop into my mind and I always come back to this.
Man, I was struggling today. Bad. This song broke me. Played it on repeat and stared at the ceiling, my pillow soaked.
This band is flawless.
EDIT: 1 year later, I'm doing much better. The pain may never go away, but im stronger and I know that no matter what, im not alone. Thank you, Of Monsters and Men! Your music helped me a lot when I felt isolated.
I feel it is my duty to conjure an indie animation movie dependent on OMAM music as their soundtrack and to basically show the raw emotion of the movie. Anyone in?
Of Mumford & Bastille I AM SO IN, tell me more
love your username btw
Neat.
I would like to second this motion.
+Of Mumford & Bastille yes please!
please! I support you man!
I freaking loved the song, it's so enchanting! Love the sound, the voice, the emotion, everything is on point. Very talented! For some reason, I just think this song would be perfect playing on Game of Thrones episodes, just saying.
Yeah! I totally agree with you then although a little weird since I just finished watching Game of Thrones xD
Luís Labrador omg i was thinking the same thing while listening to this xp
I agree! I always think about Game Of Thrones while listening to OMAM. Not only with this song.
Luís Labrador They're all fans of the show except for Brynjar, so maybe it influences their music!
Nuuuu! Brynjar Is my favourite :( damn xD
The emotion this guy conveys is beyond mesmerizing.

if you focus hard enough it looks like its just a floating singing very emotional head.......love this band from Baltimore
i cant be uncreeped by this
+Jerome Frederick That's what I had thought when I first saw this
Did you want to offend me but calling me a penis head...I was just stating my simple observation.no need for name calling sir
Jerome Frederick I find it funny, so at least that's 1 less person insulting you, not that everyone is (shit, I missed the whole part of the sentence up).(I'll just leave now.)
The phantom queen....thank you you beautiful soul I love you
I think this one is my favorite in this series. He is just so entirely expressive and it's knocking me to the ground.
this series is mind-blowingly beautiful. so simplistic and have so much raw emotion that every one of them makes me cry
GlItChY_Blu I swear people say they cry over something every time, so are you really crying or do you just say that to show how much you like it?
I cant imagine anyone crying over this becausr hes showing emotion, i just dont get it
John Cherry Well with how many other emotionally sensitive and emphatic people there are out there, I wouldn't be surprised if many other cried while watching these.
i can't imagine anyone *not* crying over this because hes showing emotion. it's all about perspective, friend. :')
GlItChY_Blu why would people cry
Ayy Lmao because its so rare to see someone showing this amount of raw emotion and not everyone thinks the same things are worth crying over you asses s i g h.
happy new year, guys.
This band
That song
This actor
This feeling
My favourite band ever
One word, unfortunately nowadays a common word: Artist.
spot on observation! you can see the time and effort taken to make their songs of high production value. amazing band!
The face expression he makes ever time it says "Breath in breath out, let the human in" is starting to really get to me;-;
There is something about their music that speaks to me and its like being in a trance of beauty and poetry while not being aware of it and thats the beauty of it.
The official lyric videos are so much powerful, expressive, and energetic than the actual official videos. They all are amazing.
I don't know what the original intent for this song is...but for me, it paints the perfect picture of what my life has been like living with depression and anxiety since I can remember. I really don't know how to explain it, but that's what the song's message is to me.
I know I am about 8 years behind in finding this song and then video, but it has become very meaningful in the past four months since I first discovered it. Of Monsters of Men are truly magical songwriters and performers and their lyrics know how to mean something to so many. Thank you!
I'm also blown away every time I watch it for the soul and character expressed in both the lyrics, and performance of the actor. Having looked into some of his other pieces now, too he's clearly an extremely talented actor, musician, and entertainer, and hats off to him in the range and commitment he clearly puts into every performance! Bjorn, it's clear you are singing your heart out in this video behind Of Monsters and Men's incredible song - if ever you release a version of this song sung in your own voice, we'd be honored to hear it!
I just realized that the lines ‘Breathe in, breathe out Let the human in’ is like comforting yourself amid tempting impulses, especially when you’re furious about something.
I feel like this guy knows how to party.
Of Monsters and Men lead a life always in mind. We think about many things, but the views of the real life remains hidden from us sometimes because we often deal with other things.
This music always makes me think. But it is then carried out again and again a realization. It is hard to explain.
But what makes this band and their music just so special!!!
Dirty Paws is epic. I’m digging this now too
👍👍👍
U
Whenever I feel down or sad or lonely this is my go-to song! It makes me feel in control of my destiny of WHO I am and my fate doesn't lie in the hands of anyone else.
This is my favorite OMAM music video. The head looks separated from a body and almost looks like a stone headpiece and is really cool. The actor is super expressive and it is fascinating how much expression there is with just the face.
Full of strength，full of emotion，so much to talk about.
like these lyric videos. the people in it seem to really enjoy doing so and they convey the emotion well
Não concordo nem discordo, muito pelo contrário...
This song portrays pure, pristine emotion, untouched. It shows feeling, emotion, and the aspects of the human life. An amazingly haunting song, with beautiful lyrics.
Now that I have a new monitor, I see that he is not a floating head.
I thought it was just a floating head as well and figured it fit in well with OMM.
rofl!
Lmao I just figured that out as well.
The Nordic spirit back at it again
This song gives me chills. I love it
OMAM doesn't seem to fail my expectations again! Their harmony and lyrics are beautiful. I love how their songs are so emotional and leave enough room for us all to have our own interpretation. Like our own understanding. Thanks band and I can't wait for the next one!!
Caleb Sanders I also like how they never talk about meaning of their songs and let their fans interpret the lyrics themselves. Just makes the band even more amazing...
I know! That's why OMAM is one of the best bands ever
Watching this, and still addicted ♥️ 09/2021
How could someone write a song so beautifully, compose it so brilliantly, and deliver it so perfectly ? Like OMAM
now we know what happened to the talking head from art attack
😂
Omg!! True!😂😂
I never knew one person who liked that show. Your comment validates my entire childhood.
hahaha brilliant he totally does, he looks soo familiar too but its not that haha
YESSS
My favorite video of OMAM
I absolutely love the emotion that all the people put in these videos, high five y’all
3 years without Of Monsters and Men... please come back!! 😣
I love every OMAM song, especially in this album, but damn...The message and tone of this one was just so pure and I absolutely loved it! I think my only complaint is how short it was. I could listen to this song for hours.
i am having the hardest time beliving this dude is 10 years OLDER than my grandma...icelandic genes?
Além da música, esse ator também é incrível. O rosto dele é tão expressivo e nos atrai a ficar olhando. Muito show tudo.
simmm!!!
Every time when the chorus starts I have the feeling i fall in love with this man because there is so much emotion in his face. And all of sudden he's beautiful.
_Cage me like an animal_
_Crown of gems and gold_
_Drink me like a Danimal..._
what a chuckle...
+Stars Tempestuous (Starry) XD Great Idea! I Really Laughed At This!
OMAM put me in a mood that no other band can put me in.
I love how expressionate the people are in the videos of, Of Monsters And Men. Truly beautiful.
It is so cool how they just let others tell the storys of their songs.
He really makes it to his own. Just imagine how many thousand storys all of us create, while singing along.
The emotion is really strong in this one.
cannot wait until the 'Wolves without teeth' video, definitely my favourite from the new album
I love this actor. So talented with the facial expressions.
Ever since I discovered this group in 2015, I can't stop listening to them; their music speaks to my soul. As a 45 year old, I've been saying for quite a few years that there really just isn't much good new music anymore these days. Then these folks come along and restore a little hope for me. And I love them for that. I hope they never lose their soul or change what makes them special.
There’s lots of great new music
Breathe in Breathe out…
And look
I just learned about this band, but I love it already. This song and King and Lionheart are my favorites so far.
'It's hard to put a leash on a dog, once you've put a crown on its head.' ;)
Aester Rinian quoting GoT I see ;P
I thought it went very well with this song my friend o:)
Aester Rinian you're right, it does
The face expression and the passion is out of this world
I like the rawness of this. And how in the middle his interruption comes to angst.
I love this song, I love this actor's performance.
the lyrics are beautiful unique and ah
I love whose ever idea it was to have a lyric video of other people just standing their singing the song and dancing. It's so cool that is what most of us doing at home LOL
this is my favourite actor of all actor/actresses in Of Monster and Men music video
0:14-0:23 i'M WAKING UP TO ASH AND DUST I WIPE MY BROW AND I SWEAT MY RUST
+Jam Bismuth My favourite song from Imagine Dragons. :-)
+Jam Bismuth yaaaas same thought!
3 September 2020. a moment of silence for those who don't know this amazing band.
20 days later, their names will be remembered
Mannn...dude is an art. Dang!
His movements...angry, stiff, almost saddened but so full of something trying to be more than it ever could...it's like he's translating what it feels like to live with depression. I have symptoms of SOSAD and combined with being on the soectrum it makes me feel angry all the time, and with all the stress happening this past year I often feel like I have to hold it in. My dad's been struggling with depression his whole life and I feel like this is how he feels. Like someone trying to be more human bur he can't be because he's trapped in that feeling of constant smallness and anger. So stiff and effortful and sad and tired...struggling to remember what it feels like to be truly awake. Absolutely wonderful portrayal. These actors always speak to me. The twins, the woman in Black Water and the girl in Empire. But this dude...this dude's on a whole other level and I love it.
His hair is on point! Loving everything about this video.
Quarantine vibes anyone?
I'm thankful to have music in my life. It is one of the only things that provides me solace. Been listening to this on loops for a few days now because I had my heart ripped out. The woman I wanted to spent my entire life with was using me as entertainment and never cared for me. She saw me as an "adorable puppy" in her own words. I haven't felt so violated in so many years. Why can't I find love? Someone to understand me and share the same feelings? Hell...I just want a friend. That's all I've ever wanted. I've always been upfront about myself to others so having this happen is...not surprising but still painful. Each time I breathe with this song filling my ears I feel a bit better.
Thank you.
This guy's performance in this video is a masterpiece.
Another great song! I just heard this at a restaurant so I looked it up. I figured it was Of monsters and men. That voice is very distinct.
I remember hearing Mountain Sound in a grocery store and breaking out into the biggest grin, I was so happy. 😄
I like this Actor, second favourite next to Beard-man from Crystals.
Everything is just perfect!! the actor's emotion blown me away. I crazily shouting and dacing along with him
Who else is here after recognizing this amazing actor in Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga? Congratulations Bjorn Stefansson! 😍
He is so talented 😱
Spotted him straight away!!
