I love these videos so much. They show people in their raw beauty, and it just makes me really happy because they look so passionate and it's just wonderful.
Angie Quint That's exactly what I was going to say. The diversity of beauty and the power of passion is evident in every single one of these. To the point that the "official" full video of Crystals, though beautiful, isn't as powerful to me as these lyric videos have been. I love them.
Well, not all of them. I saw weird short-haired lady that looks like a man pretending to be a woman in "I of the storm". It can't be "raw beauty" when it's not beauty to begin with. But it's just my not very humble opinion.
Agreed with Chance. I think she is beautiful, and my favorite of the lyric videos, too, in fact. In the balance, they all show how unexpectedly moving honest vulnerability and passion can be. How these emotions make us all beautiful.
First I hear that person's a man looking like a woman looking like a man looking like a woman and now you use word "her"... I'm pretty confused. The music is great anyway.
@@russell_poppi Guðrún Bjarnadóttir is her name according to the video credits. Says she is an Icelandic actress and model. and she was just hired to do the video i assume.
Yo soy sobreviviente de cáncer y mientras pasaba mi tratamiento, esta canción me dio mucha fuerza y esperanza, la frase " heavy stones fear no weather" simplemente cambio mi vida y desde que conocí está canción es mi himno y mi grito de batalla, yo amo of mosters and men
Aferrarse a la vida sin miedo hace lo que muchos creen en milagros. Fuerza y coraje, Hermano! Siendo este tu himno, tu comentario es un ejemplo y fijate que a nuchos les ha gustado❤
Hermano te mando un fuerte abrazo desde mi corazón. Nuestro mundo necesita de mucho amor y gente valiente que haya aprendido a sobrellevar la adversidad y siga con la frente en alto. Cada uno de nosotros somos dueños de nuestras vidas y con el amor entre los hermanos y las naciones lograremos cosas magníficas... tan magníficas como lo hermoso de la vida. Saludos
They say that no matter how much success a band has, there will always be that one song that you hate. However, I can't say that for this band because all of their music is so powerful.
It's been three years now and I keep coming back to this song. I've looked up the interpretation of the lyrics a few different times during that time to try to understand why it makes me feel the way that it does and what I've come to realize is that the words mean something different depending on where you are in your life I suppose. At 48, I realize through my own life experiences just how difficult life can be and the weight of everything that comes with it, but through love and companionship, becoming one with another, there is strength, courage and ultimately hope for an enduring future. This song is just that for me, hope for a lasting happiness... "Heavy stones fear no weather".
Love when a band release a new album or new music and it doesn't dissapoint me. I'm gonna love the new album as much as I loved the first one. Can't wait to see them live in july! ❤️👏🏻
Fatima YTB I SOOOO want to go see them at Marymoor Park in Seattle which is just five minutes down the road from where I live but DO YOU BELIEVE IT I'M OUT OF TOWN THAT WEEK. This new album is already awesome, though.
Srsly though. My truck has a sound system that was put in by someone who had it b4 me, but it is WAY to xtreme for the truck. If you were to blast it absolute max, I would not be surprised to see things warping, and/or glass cracking. The person before me seriously went OVERKILL on the sound system.
Loved the acting for this one - she's got really expressive body language, not just facial features. And I love these lyric videos, too; they really humanise the music for me. :)
Real music, the instruments, the lyrics, the passion and the feeling it conveys so intensely. Of Monsters and Men is by far a band with soul and heart. Listening to them in 2024 and forever.
If some one deaf from birth asked me to try and communicate what music was, I would show them this video. Every move, gesture and look seems to capture the essence of the song and communicate the emotion and feeling that floods your body when listening to a powerful song you love. A truly magical video and touching/outstanding performance by the Icelandic beauty featured.
I understand what you mean: you’re talking about literally hearing the music, but it might surprise you to know that even fully deaf people do still listen/enjoy music as much and often as hearing people do. I didn’t know this for a long time. They feel the songs through vibration and they usually blast their music. :) I agree with what you say about the beautiful movements though. Art is so beautiful.
Aquela sensação, aquela vontade que você sente de colocar a música no volume máximo na tentativa de fazer todas pessoas do mundo ouvirem. Chega me sinto mais leve, amo essa banda!
wow another wonderful song! you guys are just amazing! i was obsessed with the album "my head is an animal" and now it looks like i'm gonna be obsessed with this one. can't wait for it!
This band is really magical once you know what they are singing about just warms your up your ice cold heart. If you don't know what they are singing about then just enjoy the sound and listen to their voice and maybe one day you can start a new chapter too :)
+str3anger "And from the rain comes a river running wild that will create an empire for you. " First of all, OMAM is an amazing band, and their lyrics are the best I've ever heard, so their songs can be interpreted in several ways... But Empire is pretty straight forward. Imagine the rain being a metaphor for tears. You will go through so much pain in life, every day might be sour and your vision "cloudy," but from that awful experience you will grow as a person (you will build an empire for yourself). The entire song's about that, not just the chorus, but the rest of the song can be, as I said, interpreted in many ways.
No there's just a lot of comments that think she looks like a man which is absolutely ridiculous and I don't understand how anyone could see any real masculine traits.
I think the lights, makeup and B&W filming made her facial features a bit sharper than they are. It could be an intentional effect. Anyway, the video is so, so beautiful!
I am a dedicated metal head, my girlfriend loves this song, she played it one too many times in my car, and i hate to admit, i bought the song on itunes and have it on repeat at work and on drives sometimes.... I really dislike this kind of music, but I really like OMAM. Hope they come to Houston, TX! :D
Stay open to music, keep observing. I know a lot of people who listened to heavy metal exclusively in their 30s, then they found stuff that was different, stuff like this. There's a whole world of sound that conveys emotions other than the ones we feel in our frustration years. And I promise it will be worth your trouble.
I could seriously watch her "sing" this for hours. There is so much passion expressed in her face and body language that it very seriously enhanced the song for me. Thank you!
These songs being released just keep getting better and better! There honestly isn't a song that I didn't like on any of their albums so far. And their videos are perfection. I love you, Of Monsters and Men.
RageCat =^.^= OMAM is my favourite band right now, they have yet to make a song i don't love! That's amazing. I can't wait until i see them at concert in October!
When she smiles at the end it makes me want to cry she's so expressive and just a totally raw unrefined kind of beauty. If I could look like anyone it'd be her
I totally like the atmosphere your songs are able to create, it's like I just dive in an ocean of thoughts every time I listen to it. It's something strong, I even don't know exactly how to describe it.
And this is why I love Of Monsters And Men!!! They're lyrics are so mystical and yet natural at the same time, and that's what makes me love them so much! I don't think you can compare their style of music or lyrics to any other band, bring on the album can't wait to see what's next!
Don Chamberlain Haha, exactly! You never find anything good on the radio-- just those boring, monotone songs about love and sex that are always the same.
+MissyMuffin The radio market where I live totally bites. However there is an excellent public station that I never change. This is where I found OMAN. Their music is so varied, you can''t guess what they will play next. I went out to my car at lunch today and the second song they played was the entire The Levee by L.Z! Even though that was hard rock back in the day, you could understand every word.
I still come back to this video from time to time because this individual exudes so very much raw charisma. I hope that wherever they are right now, they're doing well.
When i listen to this song i think of 2 little kids playing in the woods while its raining with their mud boots and when the rain stops the river is there and they are sitting next to it together and its sunny with a rainbow bc rain.
Sounds to me like you need to listen to more indie. Here's some for ya list similar to this. Arcade fire, Vampire weekend, the strokes, vnv nation, Bon Iver, Peter Bjorn and John, the postal service, and more
Absolutely stunning. What a cool concept for music vids- just one person rocking out, singing along, making it their own. It really captures the energy and emotion that makes good music so transcendent. Love it!
Oh man i love this woman... Gettin here every time im in a depression hole... Her smile, energy sparks in her eyes ... It pulls me up. Thank you Guðrún and thank you OMAN...
Guðrún Bjarnadóttir in this video is the Icelandic actress. There's another woman by the same name that won Miss International in 1963. But the one in this video is only like 34 years old
Brad, this song will always be for you, I would give 1000 years in solitude to have that moment. I always feared the day you were gone, I just never knew what would happen to me. Losing you was the greatest struggle of my 33 years. The tears flowing into the river of time have made minds numb to desire drive want and will. Loving you had the profound cataclysmic affect to make me grow, and then torment and torture me. I will lose my life for you.
my mother walked in. a little girl with a paint brush in her mouth, crying with a huge smile as she watches someone dance and sing to a song she's never heard but goddamnit this is amazing. thank you
the blending of the lead vocals is perfect, neither overpowers the other. the background vocals are there when they will add something and silent or subdued when they don't add much. perfect video...
Feel the ocean as it breathes Shivering teeth See the mountains where they meet Smothering me As the wind fends off the waves I count down the days Heavy stones Fear no weather I find comfort in the sound And the shape of the heart How it echoes through the chest From under the ground As the hills turn into holes I fill them with gold Heavy stones Fear no weather And from the rain Comes a river running wild that will create An empire for you Illuminate! There's a river running wild that will create An empire for you An empire for two An empire for you An empire for two And I paint your body black I hide in your hair And you're staring back at me Like I wasn't there As our bodies become stills We welcome the fear Heavy stones Fear no weather And from the rain Comes a river running wild that will create An empire for you Illuminate! There's a river running wild that will create An empire for you An empire for two An empire for you An empire for two And from the rain Comes a river running wild that will create An empire for you Illuminate! There's a river running wild that will create An empire for you An empire for two An empire for you An empire for two
Carmen Palomino same, because it's one of thefew songs that focus on Ragnar as thehead instead of Nanna, he doesn't gt enough chances to shine on this album (and btw Matthew, Dirty Paws is ther best song)
+Shamar Morrison Same. One of my friends does listen to some good rock-&-roll and another listens to Fallout Boy which is ok. But the rest like to listen to real crappy songs.
What an engaging and very beautiful performer. I like the style of these videos.... Simple, but very well done. Gets at the core of what "music" truly is, and what it should be.
2024 and this (plus the other lyric videos from this album) still be some of the best out yonder. Gratitude to the algorithm for bringing it back to mine eyes. ✨
Love this song and cannot stop listening to it. Also love the girl who performs while the song is playing, she , demonstrates such feeling and emotion, love it to the max.
My 6 year old son and I sing this song at the top of our lungs in the car. My proudest parenting win is the fact that he can recite so many OMaM lyrics
This woman has one of the friendliest faces I’ve seen in years. I just feel like having her as a friend. So much charisma in one single human being and such an amazing song loaded with positivity.
OMG!!! Raggi♥ COMO É QUE ELES CONSEGUEM SER PERFEITOS?!!!!! Estão surpreendendo cada vez mais com esse álbum. Mal posso esperar pelas outras músicas!!! OMAM é o tipo de banda q não dá pra escutar parado! A música é maravilhosa♡♥Não dá pra parar de escutar kkk
3:20 when she started smiling it was so awesome and beautiful i felt awesome and started crying
Best part of the video....
I just got to that part and thought, "I wonder if anyone else cries at this part." Haha, thank God I'm not alone.
Handsome not at all gay Jack I feel you
I love these videos so much. They show people in their raw beauty, and it just makes me really happy because they look so passionate and it's just wonderful.

First I hear that person's a man looking like a woman looking like a man looking like a woman and now you use word "her"... I'm pretty confused.

She has this sort of raw primal look about her that’s just stunning. She nailed this one.
internet says she was born in 1942... are my eyes retarded or the internet?
@@Jfrost211 Same name, different person. The person you found was a beauty pageant contestant/winner.
Yes, but who is she? Is she the lead singer of the band? Is she an actress hired to do the video? What is her name? Thank you
@@russell_poppi Guðrún Bjarnadóttir is her name according to the video credits. Says she is an Icelandic actress and model. and she was just hired to do the video i assume.
ah gosh two years later this comment seems so creepy but yeah!! this was great acting!
Yo soy sobreviviente de cáncer y mientras pasaba mi tratamiento, esta canción me dio mucha fuerza y esperanza, la frase " heavy stones fear no weather" simplemente cambio mi vida y desde que conocí está canción es mi himno y mi grito de batalla, yo amo of mosters and men
Tiene fuerza el tema
foda irmão, parabens
Aferrarse a la vida sin miedo hace lo que muchos creen en milagros. Fuerza y coraje, Hermano! Siendo este tu himno, tu comentario es un ejemplo y fijate que a nuchos les ha gustado❤

Cada uno de nosotros somos dueños de nuestras vidas y con el amor entre los hermanos y las naciones lograremos cosas magníficas... tan magníficas como lo hermoso de la vida. Saludos
for some reason the line "heavy stones fear no weather" makes me so happy.
I love the way they relate the weather and the feelings
"And from the rain comes a River running wild" makes me happy ;)
The whole song makes me happy ( :
For me that line means pain that leads to a rush of good things. Like how tragedy can be the beginning of something great.
Because you feel like you can ground yourself and become a heavy stone and let all shitty weather pass
The actor is passionate.....I love how unique and emotional these videos are...
She's so beautiful. Every single soul in these videos. The songs touch my heart and these people pour their souls. It's very beautiful.
thats y the songs r sooo good!!! chills!
I can't get over how cute Guðrún is at 3:23 . Just look at that smile! That right there is genuine happinss! Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside x3
They say that no matter how much success a band has, there will always be that one song that you hate. However, I can't say that for this band because all of their music is so powerful.
That is so true...
That smile that comes across her face at 3:25 grabs me every time! She appears to feel every emotion this song has to offer!
It strange to say, but I find this song different and faithful at the same time
Ajeje Brazoff I thought the exact same thing
Pav Juss however is amazing! :)
Definitely :)
Idk but I think she meant in terms of the song itself i.e. it sounds different to their usual stuff but still remains faithful to their sound
Pav Juss Yes :)
Her smile at 3:19 is worth the wait
She's got a great smile
Beautiful
This makes me want to get up super early, walk up a mountain, and watch the sunrise.
Do it
DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE DREAMS
AND CAPTURE FUCKING POKEMONS
If youve watched The Secret Life of Walter Mitty most of those songs give me the same feeling i listen to OMAM and Jose Gonzales when I go biking
SAME
3:16 and everything after that is my favourite. Her smile is soooo contagious!
This women makes me feel like she’s trying to help me rise up and encourage me to find the beauty in life
Omg that exactly captures what I wanted to say
I love these videos because I know we all do the same thing when we're alone a a great song comes on!
oh yeah!!!!
Ooooo I'm not alone! XD What a relief.
Pfft, why wait until I'm alone?
Yes I’m doing it now
Yep
"an empire for you
an empire for two"
- Darth Vader to Luke
KKKKKKKKKKKKK XD
so true :D
Damn im laughing 😂
LOL

She’s so pretty, but when she smiles... BEAUTIFUL
3:21 one of the best parts. Love how her face just lights up when she fully smiles.
She has a pretty masculine voice though
@@wnocknz ......so?? Doesn't change that she's beautiful
@@lurkingllama8364 imagine been her husband and wake up every day to that smile.
@@wnocknz That's... not her voice.
just want to say I love this song and I think she's astonishingly to be able to put so much emotion and physicality into her performance
+Katie Evans *astonishingly capable
Great assessment Katie 👍🏻
Love when a band release a new album or new music and it doesn't dissapoint me. I'm gonna love the new album as much as I loved the first one. Can't wait to see them live in july! ❤️👏🏻
***** at the BBK festival in Bilbao!
Fatima YTB June 16th London for me. Just after the album comes out!
Philip Gee aww that's so cool! I'm so excited about the new album! :)
Already saw them in toronto, first concert of the tour! It was unreal, you're in for a treat.
Fatima YTB I SOOOO want to go see them at Marymoor Park in Seattle which is just five minutes down the road from where I live but DO YOU BELIEVE IT I'M OUT OF TOWN THAT WEEK. This new album is already awesome, though.
am I the only one so fascinated by her face/eyes/expression/whatsoever that I can't even focus on the lyrics cuz im too focused looking at her?
She reminds me of my godmother. She's so beautiful.
+Holly Mae PHAN
+o0Nephilim0o ...how could you NOT pay attention to the lyrics???
+o0Nephilim0o I can focus on the lyrics still, but her expressions were so fantastic they just gave life to this song even more. I just love it.
I know what you mean. She's intense, to the point of distracting for some.
I wanna have a car so I can listen to this song and scream the lyrics while im driving alone.
right me too
me too...
You gave me an idea! Give me a moment...(lol)
Magic_Zach lol
Srsly though. My truck has a sound system that was put in by someone who had it b4 me, but it is WAY to xtreme for the truck. If you were to blast it absolute max, I would not be surprised to see things warping, and/or glass cracking. The person before me seriously went OVERKILL on the sound system.
she's so expressive...
It's beautiful
I think they all are
I think she kinda has to be, the entire video is just... Well... Her. She has to make it somewhat interesting to watch
Yes I thought she was the singer so emotional love your comment 🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️💝💖💓💞💜💘❤💚💛💙
Desde Islandia....Guðrún María Bjarnadóttir
Seeing these people in the OMAM videos happy makes me happy.
Woke up this morning in a bad mood, this fixed it.
Nymph Blood felt like that yesterday before pulling up this song
Loved the acting for this one - she's got really expressive body language, not just facial features. And I love these lyric videos, too; they really humanise the music for me. :)
Dankas Kush IKR The previous actors were awesome but it's like she knows how to fill up the space and even make *the song* more expressive
Bruna T. And that little sway she does right before the chorus, love it.
Guðrún Bjarnadóttir is an incredibly beautiful woman.
And her performance on this video is absolutely stellar, does so well with the aesthetic of OMAM
Real music, the instruments, the lyrics, the passion and the feeling it conveys so intensely. Of Monsters and Men is by far a band with soul and heart. Listening to them in 2024 and forever.
If some one deaf from birth asked me to try and communicate what music was, I would show them this video. Every move, gesture and look seems to capture the essence of the song and communicate the emotion and feeling that floods your body when listening to a powerful song you love. A truly magical video and touching/outstanding performance by the Icelandic beauty featured.
I understand what you mean: you’re talking about literally hearing the music, but it might surprise you to know that even fully deaf people do still listen/enjoy music as much and often as hearing people do.

wow another wonderful song! you guys are just amazing! i was obsessed with the album "my head is an animal" and now it looks like i'm gonna be obsessed with this one. can't wait for it!
Same for me!
So do I!!!
TNCMAD
her smile is so..... 💜💜
This band is really magical once you know what they are singing about just warms your up your ice cold heart. If you don't know what they are singing about then just enjoy the sound and listen to their voice and maybe one day you can start a new chapter too :)
Only someone who's going through what they're singing about can know the true meaning of the songs. I love the band
What are they singing about exactly?
+str3anger
"And from the rain comes a river running wild that will create an empire for you. "
First of all, OMAM is an amazing band, and their lyrics are the best I've ever heard, so their songs can be interpreted in several ways... But Empire is pretty straight forward.
Imagine the rain being a metaphor for tears. You will go through so much pain in life, every day might be sour and your vision "cloudy," but from that awful experience you will grow as a person (you will build an empire for yourself).

Heavy stones, fear no weather
I i
I'm truly impressed and blown away by the emotion and passion Guðrún Bjarnadóttir had doing this video. She brought the song to life.
I feel such a deep connection to these songs and this band.
BEST LYRIC VIDEO
The woman is doing it PERFECTLY!
I can feel the song through her body language. GOOD JOB.
What
Potential here for this to be better than the last album, which was already the greatest album in existence
Even after all these years, I love how her smile just lights up her face at 3:25
OMAM IS STILL THE MOST UNDERRATED BAND IN THE WORLD
Ahem... Stealing Sheep, Tikkle Me and Lord Huron.
Yes
I agree
Beautiful song. Beautiful woman. Beautiful band.
My goodness she's good.
I at least am mesmerized by her expression of the song.
There's loads of comments saying that this woman is ugly and I'm starting to think that I'm the only person who thinks she's stunning
Same!
I didn't see any of those comments..?
No there's just a lot of comments that think she looks like a man which is absolutely ridiculous and I don't understand how anyone could see any real masculine traits.
I've never seen an unattractive Icelander, male or female
She's Beautiful
I've just discovered this group and I could not love their songs more. 2017 is starting well.
I LOVE her expressions, together with her movements, they express so much with so little.
they are unique.
I'm so blessed to have discovered such a band....
This song is fantastic. They chose the perfect person for the music video.
She does have a strong jawline but she has a different beauty to her.
I think the lights, makeup and B&W filming made her facial features a bit sharper than they are. It could be an intentional effect. Anyway, the video is so, so beautiful!
I thought it was a guy lol
people dislike strong jawlines?
I wasn't sure first if she was a guy or girl. But she's so beautiful though :3
I think she's navahopi.....lol
I am a dedicated metal head, my girlfriend loves this song, she played it one too many times in my car, and i hate to admit, i bought the song on itunes and have it on repeat at work and on drives sometimes.... I really dislike this kind of music, but I really like OMAM. Hope they come to Houston, TX! :D
straight up metal head here also but I love this song. nothing wrong with that.
I'm not a metal head, but I agree. I dislike this kind of music but this band is doing something right
+Wendy Marvell why do you dislike this type of music?
+Jesus Barron I like classic rock. And this band. For some reason. Apparently this appeals to everyone.
Stay open to music, keep observing. I know a lot of people who listened to heavy metal exclusively in their 30s, then they found stuff that was different, stuff like this. There's a whole world of sound that conveys emotions other than the ones we feel in our frustration years. And I promise it will be worth your trouble.
I could watch ( and sing) this all day.
I just watch this to see Guðrún. What an exquisite human
I could seriously watch her "sing" this for hours. There is so much passion expressed in her face and body language that it very seriously enhanced the song for me. Thank you!
i like these mire than the vids its like these people are genuinely enjoying themselves
more
Agreed
Totally agree.
These Music videos on some Sativa..
That's true!
These songs being released just keep getting better and better! There honestly isn't a song that I didn't like on any of their albums so far. And their videos are perfection.
I love you, Of Monsters and Men.
RageCat =^.^= I feel the same way!
***** They are just so talented and amazing people.... My most favourite band
***** And there has barely been any negative feedback. Their songs are topping everything!
RageCat =^.^= OMAM is my favourite band right now, they have yet to make a song i don't love! That's amazing. I can't wait until i see them at concert in October!
***** Oh my god, you're going to see them? :D I'm so jealous! :D
When she smiles at the end it makes me want to cry she's so expressive and just a totally raw unrefined kind of beauty. If I could look like anyone it'd be her
Guðrún Bjarnadóttir brings so much visceral kinetic energy to this performance. utterly powerful.
Apparently I fear no weather.
Lol
That is perfect xD

This proves that there is good. music still being produced, but you really have to seek it out.

Don Chamberlain Haha, exactly! You never find anything good on the radio-- just those boring, monotone songs about love and sex that are always the same.
+MissyMuffin The radio market where I live totally bites. However there is an excellent public station that I never change. This is where I found OMAN.

Jeke Boi i bet those 2 kids are King and Lionheart xD
Jeke Boi Bridge to Terabithia
Jeke Boi it could be a perfect video for this song !! amazing
This is the only band i know that have normal lyrics i mean no clise about love money or breaking up and stuff really its so epic
+TheHrebo Coldplay
Check out 21 pilots. They sing about depression and suicide but it's awesome
+Aidan Cullinan not entirely, but yeah they are awesome
+Kamau King Atkinson yeah coldplay is also good i love them a lot but i think this band have better lyrics imo.
Sounds to me like you need to listen to more indie. Here's some for ya list similar to this. Arcade fire, Vampire weekend, the strokes, vnv nation, Bon Iver, Peter Bjorn and John, the postal service, and more

She's soo pretty!
Crazy that she's apparently 73.
Humanthe there's no way she's 73
She's not, she's like 34 I believe
Guðrún Bjarnadóttir in this video is the Icelandic actress. There's another woman by the same name that won Miss International in 1963. But the one in this video is only like 34 years old
she looks so young too! how could she be 73???
does anyone else just loves this videos? like, the ones from this album? how pure and simple and natural all this people are? i do
Brad, this song will always be for you, I would give 1000 years in solitude to have that moment. I always feared the day you were gone, I just never knew what would happen to me. Losing you was the greatest struggle of my 33 years. The tears flowing into the river of time have made minds numb to desire drive want and will. Loving you had the profound cataclysmic affect to make me grow, and then torment and torture me. I will lose my life for you.
Omg please come to brazil so I can song along with you like this woman is singing in the video
Siiiiim!!!!!! Yes yes yes
my mother walked in. a little girl with a paint brush in her mouth, crying with a huge smile as she watches someone dance and sing to a song she's never heard but goddamnit this is amazing. thank you
She is so nice and vibrant can`t take my eyes off how her body trembles to the rhythm.
Perfectly delivered message!
Thank you
I love the people in this videos it's like they really feel the music
What an amazing song and a beautiful human being. I have watched this video 100 times and will watch it 1,000 more.
Mesmerizing ! I must have watched her 50 times.
her expressions are on point! I come here to watch her for my theatre class
the blending of the lead vocals is perfect, neither overpowers the other. the background vocals are there when they will add something and silent or subdued when they don't add much.
perfect video...
Beautiful - Those eyes and that smile!
Her performance ignites the soul of this song.
Algum brasileiro apreciando essa maravilha?
frequentemente, amo demais essa banda
Omam ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Euuuuu
SEMPRE💟
Opa, salve salve conterrâneo.
The earth-shattering power expressed with every word, movement and emotion in this beautiful music video is hypnotic.
Feel the ocean as it breathes
Shivering teeth
See the mountains where they meet
Smothering me
As the wind fends off the waves
I count down the days
Heavy stones
Fear no weather
I find comfort in the sound
And the shape of the heart
How it echoes through the chest
From under the ground
As the hills turn into holes
I fill them with gold
Heavy stones
Fear no weather
And from the rain
Comes a river running wild that will create
An empire for you
Illuminate!
There's a river running wild that will create
An empire for you
An empire for two
An empire for you
An empire for two
And I paint your body black
I hide in your hair
And you're staring back at me
Like I wasn't there
As our bodies become stills
We welcome the fear
Heavy stones
Fear no weather
And from the rain
Comes a river running wild that will create
An empire for you
Illuminate!
There's a river running wild that will create
An empire for you
An empire for two
An empire for you
An empire for two
And from the rain
Comes a river running wild that will create
An empire for you
Illuminate!
There's a river running wild that will create
An empire for you
An empire for two
An empire for you
An empire for two
Its the Lyrics Person!
In my opinion, this song is the best from the new album!!!! :D
yes, I think the same
Carmen Palomino same but i think mountain sound is their best song
Carmen Palomino same, because it's one of thefew songs that focus on Ragnar as thehead instead of Nanna, he doesn't gt enough chances to shine on this album (and btw Matthew, Dirty Paws is ther best song)
Carmen Palomino Well in my opinion the best one for me is Human but this is the second one :3
None of my friends listen OMAM..I feel so alone sometimes..
Shamar Morrison Everyone's your friend
same!
ThinkingAboutSomeDeepStuff :-)
Shamar Morrison I try to be nice...

Same. One of my friends does listen to some good rock-&-roll and another listens to Fallout Boy which is ok. But the rest like to listen to real crappy songs.
What an engaging and very beautiful performer. I like the style of these videos.... Simple, but very well done. Gets at the core of what "music" truly is, and what it should be.
+Josh Yu That's not a performer, it's a paid actor lip-syncing the lyrics for the video. Still I can feel real emotion in her and it's just amazing.
A paid actor is still a performer. This was a performance and she is a performer. I agree her emotion is incredible.
I love the way she looks. She's unique. Down to earth. Beautiful people. Her and the whole group.
2024 and this (plus the other lyric videos from this album) still be some of the best out yonder. Gratitude to the algorithm for bringing it back to mine eyes. ✨
Human emotion is beautiful.
I think this girl truly felt the music and all the sounds by herself :)
There's something about her expressions... and her eyes.
Love this song and cannot stop listening to it. Also love the girl who performs while the song is playing, she , demonstrates such feeling and emotion, love it to the max.
My 6 year old son and I sing this song at the top of our lungs in the car. My proudest parenting win is the fact that he can recite so many OMaM lyrics
OMAM IS KILLING IT WITH THESE LYRIC VIDEOS AND I'M JUST REALLYEXCITED fOR THE FULL ALBUM RELEASE KEEP IT UP GUYS
This woman has one of the friendliest faces I’ve seen in years. I just feel like having her as a friend. So much charisma in one single human being and such an amazing song loaded with positivity.
Eu estou apaixonada por essa música, lamento muito ter conhecido essa banda só agora 😭😭
I am absolutely in love with this woman...
Her name is Guðrún Bjarnadóttir. What a song, what a video!
She is so expresive! loved it!
For all those who wonder but don't dare ask: the woman is Icelandic actress Guðrún Bjarnadóttir (born in 1981 - she was 34 at the time).
OMG!!! Raggi♥ COMO É QUE ELES CONSEGUEM SER PERFEITOS?!!!!! Estão surpreendendo cada vez mais com esse álbum. Mal posso esperar pelas outras músicas!!! OMAM é o tipo de banda q não dá pra escutar parado! A música é maravilhosa♡♥Não dá pra parar de escutar kkk
I love how she matches up when she looks directly into the camera with certain lyrics
She seems to have so much fun. ☺ I love her smile in the later part of the video.
