What I have always found beautiful about Van Canto, and especially this song in particular, is how well the vocals harmonise with none trying to be above the other.
For years and years we waited And now the time has come To leave these barren lands Towards (new) horizons No matter what has happened And what was said or done Words are to be to forgotten We will roam on! We cross the gates of darkness Into the black of night We don't fear anybody: (We) got the second sight We move a little further Towards the borderline Before the dawn of day Our souls come back to life And life comes back again The mission's to fight to be free again To stand our ground and to be immortal This is our mission so here we stand We have the right to be ourselves again The mission's to fight to be free again They held us down for so long Our backs against the wall We didn't see a future Did not hear the call But now that things have changed Now that our fears are small We create a vision (And we) face it - one for all We cross the gates of darkness Into the black of night We don't fear anybody: (We) got the second sight We move a little further Towards the borderline Before the dawn of day Our souls come back to life And all I see, in front of me Every step I take is bringing me closer to me! The mission's to fight to be free again To stand our ground and to be immortal This is our mission so here we stand We have the right to be ourselves again The mission's to fight to be free again All That we are Is everything that we've ever been - (And what we'll be is what we are) 4x That we are What we'll be is what we are (That - we - are) What we'll be is what we are (Everything) What we'll be is what we are Everything (That - we - are) And what we'll be is what we are what we are what we are what we are is everything we've ever been 3x what we are is everything we've ever been And what we'll be is what we are The mission's to fight to be free again To stand our ground and to be immortal This is our mission so here we stand We have the right to be ourselves again 3x The mission's to fight to be free again!

vi um show deles aqui em SP, no inferno club... não lembro o ano.. mas ganhei autografo e tudo :) kkk - tocaram um cover de carry on do angra no final do show
4:02- 4:03 Inga looks beautiful in that moment. I discovered Van Canto the other day, with their rendition of king of metal, and I have fallen in love with this music. Rock On!
This song is so awesome!!! "The mission's to fight to be free again To stand our ground and to be immortal This is our mission, so here we stand We have the right to be ourselves again "
The mission's to fight to be free again To stand our grounf and to be immortal This is our mission so here we stand We have to right to be ourself again.
Let's not act as if Inga is a passive element of the band and talking about her individually is bad. They themselves realize the value of having her, on top of any musical talent she may possess (and she has a VERY good voice, but then again, they all do), which is why she's featured so prominently in their videos and pictures despite often having a very subdued role in the music. I don't think anyone should act like this is Inga + 5 random dudes, but if the band wants to have her as a mascot, I don't think talking about her is wrong.
This song could not have been more perfect! It's like a spirited motivational pep-talk in a song :P I can't help but be right pumped up after hearing it! Not to mention the goose bumps! So glad to see there is still originality out there! The newer music these days have been disappointing me. This is an amazing breath of fresh air!
The mission's to fight to be free again. To stand our ground and to be immortal. This is the mission so here we stand. We have the right to be ourselves again.
The age of the Third Empire is over! The Imperials are broken and enslaved, they even have forsaken their true god! But Skyrim will never bow to the elves! We will not be put in chains, not by the Empire, not by the Dominion, not by anyone else who dares to challenge the sons of Skyrim! For Ulfric! For Skyrim! For FREEDOM! -A Nord rebel
I'm enjoying all the different ideological approaches y'all are bringing to the table. Especialy the Reachman, I never considered them before but yeah I guess they are a legitimate faction.
Let the humans and elves fight their battles over this flag or that throne. The orcs will be there after they are all gone, our weapons still sharp, our blood still pounding, and our warriors still the greatest!
The mission's to fight to be free again. To stand our ground and to be immortal. This is our mission so here we stand. We have the right to be ourself again. GREAT!!!
ich weiss nicht warum, aber ich komm einfach nicht von diesem lied los^^ ich sitz hier ne halbe stunde und hör mir das immer und immer wieder an das macht ein wirklich gutes lied aus gj
Für mich der Beweis, dass Metal eben sehr viel mehr sein kann, als es die Öffentlichkeit war haben möchte. Solche Bands brauchen wir eben im Metal die immer neue Ideen und Methoden einbringen. Irgendwann hat man nämlich jeden Riff und jede Hookline mal gehört. Da finde ich es schön wenn Bands wie Van Canto entstehen die den Metal bereichern.
Its amazing what these people can do with nothing but a drum set and there voices, i've seen bands with full instruments that cant make sound like that.
"Dudes, we spent all our money on the drums"
"Don't worry, I have a plan..."
ahahhahaah
After 16 years, I'm here again. I used to listen to that a lot when I was young.
I saw them live in a small bar in São Paulo, some 16 years ago. It was EPIC.
Van Canto - Mission Succeeded. You are immortalized forever
Truly! It's interesting how I found the true meaning of this song after I saw them live yesterday :)
and ever
And ever !
And ever !
and ever!
No it was more like
"Alright guys, I wanna make a band, what can you all do?"
"Vocals"
"Vocals"
"Vocals"
"Drums"
"... We'll make it work"
What I have always found beautiful about Van Canto, and especially this song in particular, is how well the vocals harmonise with none trying to be above the other.
For years and years we waited
And now the time has come
To leave these barren lands
Towards (new) horizons
No matter what has happened
And what was said or done
Words are to be to forgotten
We will roam on!
We cross the gates of darkness
Into the black of night
We don't fear anybody:
(We) got the second sight
We move a little further
Towards the borderline
Before the dawn of day
Our souls come back to life
And life comes back again
The mission's to fight to be free again
To stand our ground and to be immortal
This is our mission so here we stand
We have the right to be ourselves again
The mission's to fight to be free again
They held us down for so long
Our backs against the wall
We didn't see a future
Did not hear the call
But now that things have changed
Now that our fears are small
We create a vision
(And we) face it - one for all
We cross the gates of darkness
Into the black of night
We don't fear anybody:
(We) got the second sight
We move a little further
Towards the borderline
Before the dawn of day
Our souls come back to life
And all I see, in front of me
Every step I take is bringing me closer to me!
The mission's to fight to be free again
To stand our ground and to be immortal
This is our mission so here we stand
We have the right to be ourselves again
The mission's to fight to be free again
All
That we are
Is everything that we've ever been
-
(And what we'll be is what we are)
4x
That we are
What we'll be is what we are
(That - we - are)
What we'll be is what we are
(Everything)
What we'll be is what we are
Everything
(That - we - are)
And what we'll be is what we are
what we are
what we are
what we are
is everything we've ever been
3x
what we are
is everything we've ever been
And what we'll be is what we are
The mission's to fight to be free again
To stand our ground and to be immortal
This is our mission so here we stand
We have the right to be ourselves again
3x
The mission's to fight to be free again!
thank you for including the what we are part
No importa cuanto tiempo haya pasado, siempre me sigue gustando esta canción.

first time i saw this i was like WTF? but then it shut my mouth because it's sooo awesome
Pretty much my feelings too.
As I discovered van cato now, it shall never be undiscovered.
"oke we have a drummer now"
" who can play guitar?"
"..."
"oke, who can sing?"
One of my first favorites. >:D
I always tell people, they speak the music of my soul.
It's pure miracle I have found them! And I couldn't be happier!
Hello from 2021! Still a great song.
I am listening this in 2019, and I like it !
One of the best live experiences I've had in a long time. Looking forward to seeing them again.
vi um show deles aqui em SP, no inferno club... não lembro o ano.. mas ganhei autografo e tudo :) kkk - tocaram um cover de carry on do angra no final do show
Conheci a bandam através do extinto programa do Marcos Mion.
Es gibt nur wenige Bands/Gruppen/Sänger die so eine Bedeutung für mich haben wie Van Canto.. weiter so!
Down with the empire and the filthy thalmor, long live the high king Ulfric Stormcloak! For FREEDOM!
4:02- 4:03 Inga looks beautiful in that moment. I discovered Van Canto the other day, with their rendition of king of metal, and I have fallen in love with this music. Rock On!
I love their voices...
Несколько лет назад "заболела" Van Canto, по сей день не отпускает )))))
Soon it will be 10 years
Still waiting for concert in Poland. Why it so hard to cross the Oder?
Perhaps due to what happened in the last war...idk sorry
True...nothing is ending good, when Germans cross the border. xD
Do you really want Germany to visit Poland?
This song is so awesome!!!
"The mission's to fight to be free again
To stand our ground and to be immortal
This is our mission, so here we stand
We have the right to be ourselves again "
It's a shame that I can't click the "Like" button more than once for this song.
The mission's to fight to be free again
To stand our grounf and to be immortal
This is our mission so here we stand
We have to right to be ourself again.
Wow
This a great band
Better than all the covers! This was some of van cantos best work
Happy 10 years!
The best song ever of Van Canto ...
господи, вот это эмоции. достойные оскара(простите что по Русски)
Ничего, мы тебя поняли))
Gosta de rock?, Sim, escuta o que? VanCanto, não conheço, Eu sei 😃😃😃
Let's not act as if Inga is a passive element of the band and talking about her individually is bad.

I don't think anyone should act like this is Inga + 5 random dudes, but if the band wants to have her as a mascot, I don't think talking about her is wrong.
The funny thing is they actually probably use guitars so that they know what sounds to make when they are recording.
Imádom!! Teljesen egyedi, iszonyatosan igényes, zseniális zene.
Adoration! Unique, perfect music.
very good!
my friend emma showed me this song! love it!
REALY AMAAAZING.... GOSPEL ALSO.... VERY.... IT'S GOSPEL SO MUCH
riddly diddly DUM DUM DUM
... Oh, wait a minute...
"What we ever been and what we'll be is what we are" Epic!
The mission: Riddly Diddly to the top

Anyone wants a good laugh, turn on captions... and watch the system slowly slip toward insanity...
