I am a Man's Man; a Man of action, old-fashioned in the good, non-condemning way. I have been a soldier and carpenter, I do HEMA and reenactment fighting and dared everything. I love this. This is female empowerment. This is the power of strong, free women. May you never have to bend your necks to patriachy again.
I'm Irish Celt and every time I listen to this I cannot fight my emotions and tears because this just stirs something very primal and primordial deep within me 💫
I feel the same way. That song gives me a motherly vibe of secureness and connection with nature and our long gone ancesstors. This "Band" does something to you.
That was me the first time I heard the music of 'Song of the Sea'. It cut through everything in me and struck right at my core the moment the first notes of the song reached me.
The little girl in this video looks and is about the same age as my daughter Anastasia who is always in the forest. She collects insects, leaves and flowers and calls herself Goddess of Nature.
For moments I almost thought the child was a boy. That long hair Viking like aesthetic on boys as young as 6. Its a thing. The thing with the bird was sweet.
I’m not from those regions, if anything I’m the furthest away from them but these sounds, they give rise to a primal feeling in my heart, makes me want to rip away from the mundane of city life, rip off my human clothes and run, feel the dirt under my feet and harmonize with the birds as the wind carries my soul forward. I want to be free.
If you are not Celtic or Scandanavian and are confused by Beth's emotional connection to this music, just please understand that for reasons beyond logical explanation, music like this reaches something deep and ancient in us, an instinct or maybe genetic memory - and fills us with primal feelings of home, longing, and vigor. We all feel "called home" by this music, even if we cant put the feeling to words. I think its embedded in put genes somehow.
Have you heard the live version of this that they released a few months ago? The music that Heilung brings to my walks at night is more than enchanting. It's an inspiration.
I just left basically the same comment, the live version is somehow even better. I swear when the lights came up at the end I about fell out of my chair I was so blown away. Its incredible.
I just saw these guys at Kings Theatre in NYC last night, and it was honestly the best show I've ever seen. Aside from the music being absolutely amazing, and trance inducing, the stage show is just as good. I just can't stress enough how special this act is. Definitely go see them if you get the chance!
I saw them with my partner at Keller Auditorium in Portland last year. The ritual was a little over 2 hours and was moving and soothing. We left feeling the most relaxed and at peace we have in months.
As for a artistic expression in music and film, I in 63 years have never been so astonished and captivated by a single piece of art. This is a timeless masterpiece thank you heilung 💖💖
This must be the most beautiful and most artistic way I've ever seen to represent the cycle of life and death, of birth and death, and one's embrace of it. Gorgeous.
The Lyrics to the song is made up from words and inscriptions found on Germanic Bractreacts, large gold coins used as jewelry in germania and scandinavia, they are typically Roman gold coins, flattend and inscribed with runes and iconography. The oldest Bractreacts found depicting the Germanic god Odin/Wotan/Woden, was found a few years back in Denmark in a small field near the village of Vindelev, it is from the 4th century AD, just in the Beginning of the migration period in Europe, with the coming of Atila the scourge of Humanity to Europe. These Roman goldcoins was brought home to Scandinavia by Warriors/traders. Maybe they had fought crumbling wester Roman Empire or had been inscribed as Foderati in the Western Roman Legions and fought other germanic tribes, we do not know. A long story short, these rune text are the base of Heilungs lyrics to this song.
As soon as you said "you need to listen with headphones" I knew this would be something special so I immediately switched over to the official video and I must say wow! What an amazing artist! It's my first time listening and I'm blown away! I have no idea what language this is but it doesn't seem to matter. It kind of reminds me of Enya but much more extreme and intense.Wow! Thank you so much for introducing me to such an excellent artist.
I got it going through a 1980s large size boom box. Speakers as big as ones face. That kicks butt. Might be a bit of loss with the blue tooth cassette I use.
I saw Heilung two weeks ago thanks to this channel and it was a life changing experience! Such a special group! Thanks Beth Roars for highlighting all kinds of music!
i always get goose bumps at the transition from a child to adult part in the video.. with her vocals.. i don't know what it is that i am feeling but its so deep and primal
Musk-Ox not a Bison, on top of that they aren't even in the same family as cattle, they're closer related to sheep. Also during mating season, you can hear the rams hitting each other from about a mile away.
Wonderful reaction to a beautiful, powerful song. I love the end - the merging of the spirit/mystical/nature with the human. Humans are a part of nature, as much as we may try to deny, subjugate, destroy and ignore it. I think that's why this band resonates so much with me because they constantly remind and invoke the positive, life-giving power found in nature. To open to the power in nature is to awaken that power in ourselves.
I love Heilung ❤ As much as my modern self resisted, it couldn't stop the archaic part of me from being addressed and awakened. Ever since I heard healing for the first time, the connection to my Germanic ancestors is back and I rejoice in my soul.
Welcome to the respect for our ancestors. As a 50 years old Peruvian I have seen the alienation and corruption of MUSIC by the show business Anglo-Saxon industry model. In this video I see and hear the voice of first nations like Algonquin, Celtics, Gaelic, iris mapuche, inka, tiawanaku the one's that we the PEOPLE have never renegade their wisdom. Thank you so much Beth.
@@perberger809 yes you're probably right. I'm from peru and of course my vision of the world has limitations, thanks to you Per Berger I learned something today.
Meh. Just miz everyone up and sing coca cola theme songs. All diversity becomes 1 world all people. A claim all culture as yours. I put being a native American on my collage application. You wouldn't believe the scholarship letters I got. Honestly if you dont reach back and hold on to something from the past. All you will have is WAP to listen to.
I'm not Celtic or Scandanavian but when I'm listen Heilungsong they reach my soul. I live in Québec (Canada province) and our traditional music and also our amazing first nation music are really connected to Heilung music. Maybe is because we are living in a north country but this music felt me part of their culture. They express the soul and the root of the real Earth music.
I have loved Heilung since I first heard them, they are wonderful to meditate to and just let your mind go into stream of consciousness, Anoana is magical by itself but the whole album takes you on an amazing journey beyond thought, beyond the cares of the modern world
Being of Irish and German heritage, Heilung's music really triggers primal senses in me. I've read so many people of similar origins say this so I don't know why we experience it, but it's amazing as hell
This piece touches something DEEP inside of me. I am in part Scotch-Irish! so this feels like the music of my ancestors. My elders and I am their seed. We live on! Beth my dear this is your channel. Do whatever you like. We are the student and you are our teacher. Part of a cult, I think of like we are part of tribe/ a clan. Yes my dear, this is a journey. A verbal trip. SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!! Epic! Thanks.

Even though I cannot understand her words there's something about this song that moves me so much! I mean it was only till after the song was over that I realized there were tears going down my cheeks. I know that may sound silly, but it's true.
The scenery in this video is amazing! So beautiful.... It reminds of my home state of West Virginia. Not the ocean/ beach scenes, of course. But the fog & hills YES! Take care and have a great year!
Hi! I’ve grown up knowing I have Italian, Greek, Turkish, Austrian, Croatian, Slovenia and Hungarian blood, but have always felt so drawn to old Nordic music and culture. My uncle just did a DNA ancestry test and it came back with Scandinavian blood, and I think that’s why I literally feel at home and get goosebumps when I listen to this music.
08:10 It is not a bison, it is a muskox. That part might have been filmed in the Dovrefjell area in Norway, the only place they live wild here in Europe
@@MrDslacker Yes, and the around 300 that lives in Norway today are descendants of individuals who were brought from Greenland in 1947. They lived here in Norway up until the end of the last ice age.
I love this song, I LOVE Heilung and the live version at Lifa was even better. Maria goes up an octave at the end and it's blow you away amazing. I have to see a ritual as soon as possible.
That was amazing and beautiful imagery... Thank you Beth...... ..Much later..Listened to it a second time when I got home through the headphones, and it sounds phenomenal.. Quite emotional...
I have found this group recently and love the way they get that spritual and tribal sense, love the celtic and nordic cultures, not get any word because I am latin and spanish speaker but sound so beautiful, catch the mother nature escence, love it conect me with my tribal spirit, I dont know why but I like to listen this group with a glass of fine red wine and a table of delitious cheeses, just beautiful!👌🏻
I rarely view reactions to things I don't know. I was born and raised in the USA, but mom was from Norway. This looked Scandinavian so I clicked. Very glad I did
Thank you so much Beth! I loved your talk with Jonas Lorentzen. I hope you are able to some of Heilung's new tracks: Asja, Tenet, or Nesso (which I find incredibly moving).
A very haunting and beautiful song! The imagery and visuals are fantastic. This song brings American Indian vibes to my mind even though the setting is ancient Northern Europe. Fantastic reactoin Beth!
Hi: The lyrics for this piece are mainly taken from bracteates: golden, circular coins or amulets found in Northern Europe that date from the 4th to 7th centuries CE. They are often fitted with a decorated rim and loop, which indicates that they were meant to be worn and perhaps provide protection, fulfil wishes or for divination. The bracteates feature a very significant iconography influenced by Roman coinage. They were predominantly made from Roman gold, which was given to the North Germanic peoples as peace money. In Anoana, the listener has the chance to delve into a collection of likely encoded spells from the Migration Period and get a touch of magic from the Dark Ages. The intention of the piece is to playfully reconnect to an incantational language of a period where the North was richer in gold than any other region. Our forefathers presumably enjoyed a time of great prosperity and it may make us rethink how dark these ages real Above the sign on the womb of the giving birth mother is probably a painted version of Ægirs Hjelm/Aegishjalmur/Ægishjálmr ("Ægir's Helmet"), which is a symbol described in the Poetic Edda as a symbol of ultimate protection, physical, mental and spiritual referred to as protection against all kinds of fear "Ægir/Ægi" means "Sea" in both dialects of Old Norse and is also the name of the personification of the sea. "Ægir's Gate", describes the eddies that drag ships to the bottom of the sea. Ægir / Ægi has often been described as an old man with a long white beard, and to see him standing still in the water was a bad omen, as he surfaced to drag people and ships to the bottom of the ocean. Ægirs Hjelm is described in the Poetic Edda in a stanza with a shape-shifting dragon, Fafner, whose blood is poisonous. The dragon guards a treasure and, with the help of Ægirs Hjelm's spell, is invincible. In The Galdrabók, the symbol is also described as something "you wear on your forehead, between your eyebrows"). In any case, this must be taken with tweezers since it may be wrong. About the solar eclipse perhaps these images would be connected with the symbol of the black sun. For the ancients, the sun was the source of life, as it provided them with heat and energy. The lack of him was just the opposite. For the ancient peoples, it seems that the periodicity and continuity of day and night made us think not only of the existence of 1 sun, but of two suns, one bright and luminous and the other black. One represented life and the other death. This could be translated as the balance between light and dark and its connection to the world of the dead and the living. In it, the dawn of the day was interpreted as the rebirth of life and its renewal. That is why eclipses were so important for all primitive and ancient cultures: When the sun disappeared in broad daylight, they predicted that eclipses would bring about great changes, or that even in the worst case, the world could come to an end. This is the original letter: [María] Athilr Rikithir Ai Eril idi Uha Ijalh Fahd Tiade Elifi An It Athilr Rikithir Ai Landawariar Año Ana Fahd Tiade Elifi An It Aelwao Ano Ana Tuwa Tuwa Tau Liu Ano Ana Tuwa Tuwa [Kai] UL FOS LAU LAL GWUL PED UL ULD AUL LEI ELw ATH RET LAE TyS Otro REI GUI AU AU LA OA SEJS ZUL AU AL HaR HaS Ka TIL AZ Ha IR EL UNOZ LEIT Una DZ GUI UI THUL UHNG Ur OI WHUG DIT La La LIH LaL Ur USK GLa Jue LAL La La La TLG Jue TiL Ur Ur Ur Ur Gel THuL So Oth LAU IA TyL LI RAI WUI IL DAI TU Han UTH A IUr EL AL Dan An ERUI AL EIZ An RA TIU An KU AK The language is proto-norse.

My favorite Heilung song so far. I'd have never found Heilung if not for my new found obsession with music reactors. Hi Beth!! New subscriber here. You came highly recommended by The Charismatic Voice. I'm looking forward to exploring much more of your content!!!
I am in no way connected to this culture, im Mexican but whenever I listen to this type of music I get emotional even tho I don't understand what their saying, I very much like listening to it, it's very idk soothing?? Idk how to describe it, it makes me feel calm but emotional at the same time??? Does that make sense???
I haven't listened to the album yet, but I got my copy of the limited edition the other day. Comes in a beautiful hardbound, gold embossed book with the lyrics written in runic (Futharkian to be exact. These are the runes most people know because they're the ones the Vikings used, but other tribes had other variations. The Saxons used a variation called the Futhorc, for example) and then these long, detailed notes about the meaning of each song. They were also kind enough to leave a translation of the runes in the opening pages. One of the best special editions I've gotten in a long time.
So lovely to hear this. I remember when you reacted to Trodlabundin with and by Eivor Palsdottir three years ago, and really connected with that music as intense as you do now to the same cultural background. Amazing! Can I just add some points that are important in seeing this? The most important being that the child is born under an eclipse (seen in background several times). After the birth you see a circular path of darkness which is one of the possible destinies for the child, and it scares the mother. According to previking believes they (those born under eclipses) had very special gifts: hamnskifte (= the ability to change appearance), age shift, talking to animals, healing (of the bird) etc The previking time and it's religion in nordic countries is much more female oriented than the religion in the later years (with viking gods like Tor and Oden... ). Also healing of the bird. They sing in a reconstructed version of the previking proto norse language.... The bracteates are the starting point for this tale, because they are one of the few "written" recordings of this language. But Sweden and Norway are also full of drawings (hällristningar = rock carvings) as memory of them. Example en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Carvings_in_Tanum Caveat: I did publish similar comments to other reactor earlier, but I do think this is important in order to appreciate it
The high sounds a re Scandanavuaan cattle calls. Men and women both do this. Anoana calls her spirit animal. The fully garbed Anoana became the birds, the Buffalo, and other spirits. She is, after the merging, a powerful shaman.
I must agree with BDF below in that this music touches our soul. It is part of us and we are part of it. This is my newest most favorite video and NEW artists. At least they are new to me. Too many people these days forget that we too are animals.
I was looking for some background information about a french singer called Mira Ceti and there was a link given to Heilung. Anyway, interesting artist for you to listen to with songs as Uriat and Esker Mila
Peo för 1 timme sedan (redigerad) Cheers from Sweden. I remember when i first heard their music it was a torch lighted up inside me. I just got mesmerized like if i knew this kind of music. Years before i had become more spiritual with our scandinavian nature feeling more at peace and at home in a deep forest or big mountain overlook. Its like my primal nature wants to break free the bonds we have in our society. I learned alot too by reading about nature "magic" that there exist leylines and especially in forests with old ancient trees. I actually found a place in southern Sweden were old Fagus sylvatica (Bok-träd) made a perfect ring of trees and in that centre if you sit there its like time and space just disappear and you can really go into a resting trance. Great reaction by you and good explaination of voices. I would probably be called a witch in christian Sweden prior to removal of religious laws :) a few years back lol. Big hug and respect.
Maria Franz has been around for a decade. Apparently she had to wear antlers to finally get noticed. If you want to see her singing in English check out "The Stage" by one of her other bands, Euzen, at the 2015 Castlefest.
Beautiful! I immediately thought Scandinavian but there was a time when the cultural type artifacts could have been found across a wide swath of Northern Europe. If you are not familiar with it, the Gundestrap cauldron, famous example of Celtic art, is worth a look. The horned figure (god? shaman?) is the center of the composition on one side. The end sequence was certainly enigmatic. I did not think the intention was a headlong (and fatal) collision. A rather extreme way of becoming one with the animal. It occurred to me that the intent might be a vault such as those seen in a formal setting on the walls of Bronze Age Knossos on Crete. Overall a great production with much to reflect on in addition to the music.
Well running head long into a challenge is a bold statement in its self. For many fear and timidity has been haunting them. Might be time for some bold head rushing.
The gundestrup keddel/kettel was not made in scandinavia, it is very Celtic iconography, it was most likely brought back home to Scandinavia Denmark after the Cimbrian wars. As Scandinavia was germanic, it was clearly a war price
Очень нравится эта песня, хотя слов и не понимаю, но музыка и текст топ. Просто хожу по инету и смотрю на реакцию людей на эту песню, прожемая попутно лайки. Привет из цитадели зла и обители тьмы России. =))) Очень советую записать реакцию на Шаман - Исповедь. Вам понравится.
Maria Franz is such a great singer.... If you don't know it, there is a german Band called Mila Mar and in my opinion, Heilung is some kind of natuaral development to this band (not the message, just the music)

It always amazes me how anyone from the Celtic/Western Germanic world (Myself included) have a very emotional response to Heilung....It is beautiful
I'm Irish Celt and every time I listen to this I cannot fight my emotions and tears because this just stirs something very primal and primordial deep within me 💫
It's more likely that the reason it touches you is modern pop music, since that one is based on the famous four chord song!
I feel the same way. That song gives me a motherly vibe of secureness and connection with nature and our long gone ancesstors. This "Band" does something to you.

Agreed. What we call society now is abnormal.

It's called having a personal connection with folk music. It's a common thing worldwide, nothing special really.

I think this is one of the most beautiful music videos ever made. The imagery and lighting is unparalleled and masterfully edited.

I mean first the Video, and then the liveversion. The understanding is much better
Love your show. is a very powerful and its nice to see some one understand the music. Thanks Beth.
The video is absolutely wonderful, the music, the vocals and it captures the magic when a life comes into the world.
Your comments truly add to the realization and understanding of this grand presentation.
This whole album is such a journey. Great reaction!
It was just confirmed my dad's family is preety much full Irish and my birth mum is English with mixed Celtic heritage
This music hits my soul
This song is a sound healing elixir to me. That is exactly how to feels to me.
It's one of the best groups I know, absolutely wonderful
That was amazing and beautiful imagery...
Thank you Beth......
..Much later..Listened to it a second time when I got home through the headphones, and it sounds phenomenal.. Quite emotional...
Wonderful, wonderful, insightful commentary.
Glad you enjoyed it!
They truly are spell binding. Amazing band.
The quiet part was even more magical live. Absolutely incredible!
That song brought me to my knees… POWERFUL.
Yes been waiting for this one! ❤️
Just saw them perform in Detroit the other day. Life changing experience! This song was amazing live. Better than the studio version dare I say.
I have found this group recently and love the way they get that spritual and tribal sense, love the celtic and nordic cultures, not get any word because I am latin and spanish speaker but sound so beautiful, catch the mother nature escence, love it conect me with my tribal spirit, I dont know why but I like to listen this group with a glass of fine red wine and a table of delitious cheeses, just beautiful!👌🏻
I rarely view reactions to things I don't know. I was born and raised in the USA, but mom was from Norway. This looked Scandinavian so I clicked. Very glad I did
The singer is indeed Norwegian, the other two members are German and Danish.
Thank you so much Beth! I loved your talk with Jonas Lorentzen. I hope you are able to some of Heilung's new tracks: Asja, Tenet, or Nesso (which I find incredibly moving).
A very haunting and beautiful song! The imagery and visuals are fantastic. This song brings American Indian vibes to my mind even though the setting is ancient Northern Europe. Fantastic reactoin Beth!
Hi: The lyrics for this piece are mainly taken from bracteates: golden, circular coins or amulets found in Northern Europe that date from the 4th to 7th centuries CE. They are often fitted with a decorated rim and loop, which indicates that they were meant to be worn and perhaps provide protection, fulfil wishes or for divination.
The bracteates feature a very significant iconography influenced by Roman coinage. They were predominantly made from Roman gold, which was given to the North Germanic peoples as peace money.
In Anoana, the listener has the chance to delve into a collection of likely encoded spells from the Migration Period and get a touch of magic from the Dark Ages.
The intention of the piece is to playfully reconnect to an incantational language of a period where the North was richer in gold than any other region. Our forefathers presumably enjoyed a time of great prosperity and it may make us rethink how dark these ages real
Above the sign on the womb of the giving birth mother is probably a painted version of Ægirs Hjelm/Aegishjalmur/Ægishjálmr ("Ægir's Helmet"), which is a symbol described in the Poetic Edda as a symbol of ultimate protection, physical, mental and spiritual referred to as protection against all kinds of fear "Ægir/Ægi" means "Sea" in both dialects of Old Norse and is also the name of the personification of the sea. "Ægir's Gate", describes the eddies that drag ships to the bottom of the sea. Ægir / Ægi has often been described as an old man with a long white beard, and to see him standing still in the water was a bad omen, as he surfaced to drag people and ships to the bottom of the ocean. Ægirs Hjelm is described in the Poetic Edda in a stanza with a shape-shifting dragon, Fafner, whose blood is poisonous. The dragon guards a treasure and, with the help of Ægirs Hjelm's spell, is invincible. In The Galdrabók, the symbol is also described as something "you wear on your forehead, between your eyebrows"). In any case, this must be taken with tweezers since it may be wrong.
About the solar eclipse perhaps these images would be connected with the symbol of the black sun. For the ancients, the sun was the source of life, as it provided them with heat and energy. The lack of him was just the opposite. For the ancient peoples, it seems that the periodicity and continuity of day and night made us think not only of the existence of 1 sun, but of two suns, one bright and luminous and the other black. One represented life and the other death. This could be translated as the balance between light and dark and its connection to the world of the dead and the living. In it, the dawn of the day was interpreted as the rebirth of life and its renewal. That is why eclipses were so important for all primitive and ancient cultures: When the sun disappeared in broad daylight, they predicted that eclipses would bring about great changes, or that even in the worst case, the world could come to an end.

The language is proto-norse. The language that the people living in scandinavia during the migration periode spoke in.Pre-viking era. The only words of Anoana's handwriting that are known with certainty is Landawariar (Protector of the land)
My favorite Heilung song so far. I'd have never found Heilung if not for my new found obsession with music reactors. Hi Beth!! New subscriber here. You came highly recommended by The Charismatic Voice. I'm looking forward to exploring much more of your content!!!
I am in no way connected to this culture, im Mexican but whenever I listen to this type of music I get emotional even tho I don't understand what their saying, I very much like listening to it, it's very idk soothing?? Idk how to describe it, it makes me feel calm but emotional at the same time??? Does that make sense???
Heilung taps in to the very essence of who we really are as humans.
A hug of frequencies seems to be a most fitting description of both Heilung and this song
I haven't listened to the album yet, but I got my copy of the limited edition the other day. Comes in a beautiful hardbound, gold embossed book with the lyrics written in runic (Futharkian to be exact. These are the runes most people know because they're the ones the Vikings used, but other tribes had other variations. The Saxons used a variation called the Futhorc, for example) and then these long, detailed notes about the meaning of each song. They were also kind enough to leave a translation of the runes in the opening pages. One of the best special editions I've gotten in a long time.
Other songs on the album are a bit weird. Some better others seems like story telling. But not in a language most would understand
Just recently found the magic of heilung, and it's amazing! Words can't explain it.
So lovely to hear this. I remember when you reacted to Trodlabundin with and by Eivor Palsdottir three years ago, and really connected with that music as intense as you do now to the same cultural background. Amazing!
Can I just add some points that are important in seeing this? The most important being that the child is born under an eclipse (seen in background several times). After the birth you see a circular path of darkness which is one of the possible destinies for the child, and it scares the mother. According to previking believes they (those born under eclipses) had very special gifts: hamnskifte (= the ability to change appearance), age shift, talking to animals, healing (of the bird) etc The previking time and it's religion in nordic countries is much more female oriented than the religion in the later years (with viking gods like Tor and Oden... ). Also healing of the bird. They sing in a reconstructed version of the previking proto norse language.... The bracteates are the starting point for this tale, because they are one of the few "written" recordings of this language. But Sweden and Norway are also full of drawings (hällristningar = rock carvings) as memory of them. Example en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Carvings_in_Tanum
Caveat: I did publish similar comments to other reactor earlier, but I do think this is important in order to appreciate it
Mother Whispers to the sleep, really lovefully songwriting
The high sounds a re Scandanavuaan cattle calls. Men and women both do this. Anoana calls her spirit animal. The fully garbed Anoana became the birds, the Buffalo, and other spirits. She is, after the merging, a powerful shaman.
Anoano, Grandmother/Mother of all in proto norse, Landawariar, is Land warrior
So kind of song that grabs you by the lizard brain. Very tribal. Something stirs up emotions whether you understand the lyrics or not.
I must agree with BDF below in that this music touches our soul. It is part of us and we are part of it. This is my newest most favorite video and NEW artists. At least they are new to me. Too many people these days forget that we too are animals.
I also feel a connection to this. It's like a long forgotten dream
I was looking for some background information about a french singer called Mira Ceti and there was a link given to Heilung. Anyway, interesting artist for you to listen to with songs as Uriat and Esker Mila
Anoana is the gaurdian/protector of nature and apparently this is going to be continued..
I mostly like the heilung videos. And what i really like is that you pause the video at the right moment. this is how a reaction should be:) Thank you
That was awesome. I'm checking these guys out some more. I think that was a musk ox she was running headlong into at the end.
I get to see them live tomorrow - 9/15. I can't wait.
I heard it live the other days and it's incredible that way!
Peo

Cheers from Sweden. I remember when i first heard their music it was a torch lighted up inside me. I just got mesmerized like if i knew this kind of music. Years before i had become more spiritual with our scandinavian nature feeling more at peace and at home in a deep forest or big mountain overlook. Its like my primal nature wants to break free the bonds we have in our society. I learned alot too by reading about nature "magic" that there exist leylines and especially in forests with old ancient trees. I actually found a place in southern Sweden were old Fagus sylvatica (Bok-träd) made a perfect ring of trees and in that centre if you sit there its like time and space just disappear and you can really go into a resting trance. Great reaction by you and good explaination of voices. I would probably be called a witch in christian Sweden prior to removal of religious laws :) a few years back lol. Big hug and respect.
Healing for your ancient soul.
Maria Franz has been around for a decade. Apparently she had to wear antlers to finally get noticed. If you want to see her singing in English check out "The Stage" by one of her other bands, Euzen, at the 2015 Castlefest.
The song is magic. But check out this video. Its pure art how it transforms the music to an emotional experience. It fits so good to the sound.
I love the music video, it's like a movie
Beautiful! I immediately thought Scandinavian but there was a time when the cultural type artifacts could have been found across a wide swath of Northern Europe. If you are not familiar with it, the Gundestrap cauldron, famous example of Celtic art, is worth a look. The horned figure (god? shaman?) is the center of the composition on one side. The end sequence was certainly enigmatic. I did not think the intention was a headlong (and fatal) collision. A rather extreme way of becoming one with the animal. It occurred to me that the intent might be a vault such as those seen in a formal setting on the walls of Bronze Age Knossos on Crete. Overall a great production with much to reflect on in addition to the music.
Well running head long into a challenge is a bold statement in its self. For many fear and timidity has been haunting them. Might be time for some bold head rushing.
The gundestrup keddel/kettel was not made in scandinavia, it is very Celtic iconography, it was most likely brought back home to Scandinavia Denmark after the Cimbrian wars. As Scandinavia was germanic, it was clearly a war price
Sorry that i have to correct you, but that in the end was not a buffalo but a muskox! :-/
Always love your reviews.
Forgive me but I have to say this: Beth Roars must be one of the cutest channel names I've ever heared :D
And the picture at the end is elder furthark runestave the way vikings communicated like a alphabet
Spelling out "Anoana"
You definitely should listen to their song NESSO… it’s incredible . A journey
Очень нравится эта песня, хотя слов и не понимаю, но музыка и текст топ. Просто хожу по инету и смотрю на реакцию людей на эту песню, прожемая попутно лайки. Привет из цитадели зла и обители тьмы России. =))) Очень советую записать реакцию на Шаман - Исповедь. Вам понравится.
Heilung is a local band here in town, nothing but amazing \m/
Must be a fun town. All mud huts and livestock. You still ride horses?
Maria is using kullning to create the tones
Me gusta saber sobre la cultura celta se vé enigmática bien mi trencita vikinga se ve espectacular 👏👏🍀🍀
I'm seeing them in Los Angeles on the 27th. I cannot wait.
Maria Franz is such a great singer.... If you don't know it, there is a german Band called Mila Mar and in my opinion, Heilung is some kind of natuaral development to this band (not the message, just the music)
