Johan Olsen, who is the one singing in Danish, has a PhD in molecular biology as well as being the lead singer in one of the most popular rock bands in Denmark, just so that you know.
Knew absolutely nothing about them going into their show with Ghost last week. What… a… show!!! Totally blown away would be an understatement. This is one band you MUST see live. Completely hooked. All I’ve been listening to since.
Same...I knew of them, but was there to see Ghost....Ghost was great, but Volbeat blew me away...been listening to them ever since...saw them in Sugarland.
Johan Olsen who sings the Danish part has a PhD in protein crystallography and worked for many years as a researcher at University of Copenhagen. He is also the lead singer his own band "magtens korridorer". Radio host And childrens book author.
Guitarist is Rob Caggiano from Anthrax ...A fun fact was Volbeat was asked to act as warm up for both Megadeath, Anthrax or Metallica on their US Tour. What ended up being decissive for them was James Hetfield did a secret visit to Michael Poulsen in Denmark, where they say in a bar/restaurant in Vesterbro Copenhagen, that Michael had to arrange on the spot, because visit was unexpected. Hetfield then stunned Poulsen by knowing almost all Volbeats songs.
The guitarist is called Rob Caggiano. He's been in Anthrax before and is pretty well known in the metal industri, maybe a little underrated. But bringing him in was the best decision Volbeat ever made. Love your reaction to one of the best songs ever made! 🤘
The Danish lyrics translates to: Forever, maybe forever will we go the same way. And when tomorrow gets its eyes, (is waking up) and the night is resting itself. Shall we forever maybe the same way... Also, the guitarist, is Rob Caggiano is a well know guitarist from previous bands like anthrax
For Evigt/The Bliss was our wedding song. Im getting the chorus for For Evigt tattooed onto me. Its just absolutely fucking mind blowing and will always boost my mood
There is another Danish band which have the same sound quality when they go live. They are called Dizzy Mizz Lizzy. They play a kind of progressive rock. I have been at a concert where I could not tell the difference if it was live or studio :-) But for sure Volbeat are up there with the best of the best. The singer on chorus Johan also plays in a third Danish band called "Magtens Korridorer" which translates to "Corridors of power"...another very cool band. At the small break before 4th chorus...Johan and Michael looking at each other...saying....."Do we dare do this"...they know this is the spot where the audience goes full in 🙂 BTW "For evigt" means "4 ever". At this specific concert 40.000 people are screaming at the top of thier lungs
Nailed it brother! Encapsulated Volbeat perfectly! The best band going today and most people have no idea who they are. Yeah they have a huge following, especially in Europe, but I’m surprised that everyone I see isn’t wearing a Volbeat shirt because they are once in a generation
I'm new to there music....love them....better than motley or metallica...on par with ac/dc...passed up 2 shows recently in salt lake city... Going march 4 to see them in Vegas ...can't wait..
I'm absolutely with you. Got Know their songs 1,5 years ago. Heard, Fell in love. This year will be my First Concert. They have so many great, perfect Songs, guitar, Lyrics.....i dont hear any Others music than them since that
Johan Olsen is just amazing in this song. He is the lead Singer in the band Magtens Korridor. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for this reaction. And yessss!, They a fantastic live 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
Saw them live Feb 4th. My favorite band and they are absolutely just as good if not better live than in the studio. Totally fun, full of personality, and grabs the crowd.
The drummer is wearing a T-shirt with the logo of another great danish band. Sort Sol (Black sun). A classic of theirs is Let your fingers do the walking. Might be worth a look, if you like great music.
I was introduced to Volbeat by my cousin about 4 years ago. I absolutely love them!! I think a lot of the older fans don’t care for this one as much because it’s not as hard as some of their old stuff but I’m like you…this song speaks to me and I love it so much!!! Wonderful band!
Dude! You talk about this song and music in general....just like I do! Lol This song is **special**....what a song, what a pair of vocalists. Their music is quality work! ❤ This is such a poignant but joyful song....and it rocks ❤ what could be better ❤❤❤
I listen to you and that is what I was like first time I heard Volbeat. Since I heard them I don't listen to anyone else. I have seen them live once and can't wait to hear them again . Bring out every emotion inside. Incredible. 🤘🤘
thats what happened to me i fell in love with his voice wow amazing so unique just subscribed bro keep volbeat coming could you react to still counting ????
Volbeat's been a little out of the Limelight here in Denmark, but when making a top ten, Volbeat is on a lot of other peoples' lists, I did actually kinda forget them, but I instantly recalled this, because it'd be in every party, in every club, and on every radio station for years on end, and it didn't actually become too old, like a lot of other good songs often become when played too often. There were just a lot of other up and coming artists that took over the spotlight, once they didn't release as many bangers.
Their big breakthrough hit was called gardens tale which also had Johan singing along. A huge hit here in Denmark and then a good 10 years later they decide to make another song together and it's an even bigger hit. Some people just know their business. Lonesome rider might be my favorite Volbeat song though.
Little bonus info about the guy singing Danish. You wouldn't thing it by looking at him. But he has got a PhD in bio chemistry and is the leed singer in a successful Danish band called magtens korridor (the corridor of power).
Just subbed one second into song. ..MEMORIES its like warm gold pumping thru me. Michael's voice IS AMAZE BALLS. This one. LEVIATHAN, and GOODBYE FOREVER are all feel good Volbeat tunes. 👍 well you know that 😎 Then Die ToLive and Wait a Minute my Girl Are so upbeat and dare I say swingy. Rob Caggiano is the guitarist. Use to play for Anthrax.
Haven't heard those songs yet, but I do know Die To Live! One of my favorites. Can't wait to listen to more, but have been saving them for these videos. Did not know he used to play for Anthrax!!!
They've got their "Camera phones".. oh sorry... "Phones" out". HAHAHAHA, that statement dates you... and me too. I didn't even notice until you corrected it, lol. I love this song so much. My husband introduced me to Volbeat so I insisted this song be played when they introduced us at our wedding reception.
Johan sings: "forever, maybe forever, shall we together on the same way/path, and when tomorrow wakes up, and the night goes to rest, shall we forever, maybe forever the same way/path".
Awesome reaction to an awesome song by a really underrated band. You are so right in saying check out live performances to see how good bands are...suggest you review Nightwish and Epica...better live than on recordings!
Handball is a big thing here in Denmark too, and a few years ago when we became world champs (first time), the chorus here were sometimes played after a particularly good goal. It took on REAL hard and in the end of the tournament, the fans would keep singing it even after the music was turned off. It was magic ❤️ love Volbeat
This song is probably the second most used song when the national teams in Denmark play, only topped by our national anthem and even after the dj turns the music Off, you still hear the danish fans singing the chorus, no matter how many times I hear it, no matter if it’s Johan Olsen or a regular danish person singing the chorus, it always gives me goosebumbs Oh and fun fact: Michael actually wrote the songs (both the bliss and for evigt) as a love song to his wife and he never expected to get this popular, that it has become
I was at this concert. I was close to the scene/stage. Rob (guitar player) Almost gave me his guitar. I have met them, and talked to them. They are so nice.
the first time i heard them in summer festival. Evening was a bit boring cause there were a bunch of bands from other countries i never heard before and i didn't feel it, but when come Volbeat on stage i loved from the first to the last song. They had amazing energy and they were very warm to the audience
This was the first song I ever heard by volbeat and I've been a fan ever since. Love both versions of the song. A lot of people don't like the English version so much but I think it's almost as good as the original. When you consider that the danish to English translation is a mouthful and doesn't flow as easily for English listeners it's easy to appreciate the English version. Either way either version is incredible. 🤗🤗
Good solid, above average rock music. Really good and solid. Nothing spectacular, but very very good. Then add in Michael's vocals, and you have a world class sound! His voice is one of a kind!
From Danish ; forever....maybe forever we go together the same way..... and when tomorrow gets eyes and the night is resting we will forever go the same way!
Did you say the thing you wanted? Have you ever felt in love? A moment where no problems would ever get you down Free as an eagle but only for a day (yeah listen) The final is a warning, wake up before you go There'll be no second chances, that day you're on your own Let out the feelings, tomorrow may not come All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever Were you listening to the evening? Have you ever felt the dawn? When everything around you told stories from the world Dear mother nature speaks louder than you know (Oh listen) The final is a warning, wake up before you go There'll be no second chances, that day you're on your own Let out the feelings tomorrow may not come All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever We are the birth We are the end We are the souls We have a name We are the rising and fallen ones We are the spirit forever more We are the birth We are the end We are the souls We have a name We are the rising and fallen ones We are the spirit forever more All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever
You're right, I don't think anyone did not know this song that summer, and sang along to it. My 63 to year old mother is at their concert tonight! (I think it's her third with them) :D
I myself think they became to mainstream/poppy at their third album, but I looove their first two! Before Volbeat, Michael was actually a growler in his band Dominus
Dude. I absolutely love your energy. I so appreciate how you describe how the music makes you feel. BTW. I am THE biggest Volbeat fan. I would love to share my thoughts of them. with you. Guitarist is Rob Caggiono, formerly with Anthrax. Michael stole him. He plays perfectly.
Damn dude. I don't mean to spam the chat... but I can't hold it back. This is no joke. Music is...NO QUESTION...the universal language and this tune/video is the mf'n real deal. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing. And when you start selling that quote you made as merch, you'll find me in your stack of invoices! Stay strong my brother ✊
Johan Olsen, the guy who looks like a homeless drug addict, has a PhD in molecular biology and used to work for Copenhagen University. As well as being the lead singer of Magtens Korridorer, a really popular rock band in Denmark. Robs acoustic guitar is on a stand, fixed. So he can just let go of his electric and walk up to the acoustic and start to play.
Used to work for? Johan Gotthardt Olsen still works for Department of Biology, Biomolecular Sciences, University of Copenhagen as an Assistant Professor (adjunkt in Danish) and Guest Researcher. Google "Johan Gotthardt Olsen Københavns Universitet" and you can find both his university bio and research profile and see all the research publications he has contributed to throughout the years (so far 31 as of november 2024).
Yes I was waiting for some Volbeat. I think I saw this band 15 times live. Even twice in one month. My favorite album is Rock the Rebel / Metal the Devil. And the new album Servant of the Mind is awesome! Did you know that before Volbeat the singer (Michael Poulsen) had another band? The name of that band is Dominus and they have an album with the title Vol.Beat. So now you know where the name Volbeat came from. By the way ... Did you listen to the band Gamma Ray yet? Thanks for another great reaction video!
6:45 To the live comment sounding as great as studio, a band I will keep holding to your face is Powerwolf, they're an awesome group of guys who have always put on a great show. They're always getting the crowd riled and excited. Those two links I posted ages ago on one of your Sabaton videos are two of their live performances, great stuff. Also, for your American only music stream, if you feel up to it, I have a band: Symphony X, Kiss of fire, (the first song I heard) and Set the World on Fire (since it has a music video). Rock on Max
So. Turns out they have a whole album of them LIVE, Live on The Edge of Forever, with one of my favorite songs Grand Design, so that could also be a recommendation. Sadly they don't seem to have video with it, only the Audio
Poulsen/Johan Olsen being to volbeat concert reminds me of being to motorhead /dio same energy and passion horns up proud to be danish volbeat the gardens tale if you wanna go back in time was at that one there in teliaparken was badass
Nice re-reaction mate, however I don't think you listened to the drummer! He was screaming at you to react to his favorite band: Sort Sol Don't worry about the name, they sing in English.
As a Native English speaker. The Bliss is good. For Evigt is legendary. It's the same for A Lifetime Of War Vs En Livstid I Krig by Sabaton. I don't speak Swedish. But by god it's perfection Edit: you mentioned Sabaton after I commented this 😂
In Denmark we call it Elvis Metal And not to brag, but to brag a little. Denmark is the Rock capital of europe. Sweden and Norway can have metal, we own rock^^ Check out some DAD or Dizzy Mizz Lizzy, even Kashmir. if you want to hear some awesome rock and you'll know I am right
I am going to see them at Sweden rock festival this Summer. Nightwish first and right after them it is Volbeat. Its going to be great. For me Nightwish is the better band but still will be a great evening
The whole Volbeat thing hasn't caught on with me, even though I'm a Dane. Magtens Korridorer, the band of the other guy, Johan Olsen though, I've listened to quite a bit. It could still change though. Originally I didn't like Dizzy Mizz Lizzy. Possibly because of the hype. It didn't change till I had to play the bass on some of their songs(while taking music classes).
Still Counting was the first song I ever heard years ago when I was a kid, and always liked it, it wasn't until I grew up more and understand what I liked more that I found the band again. Great Musik. Great band. A shame I only remembered them from your steams but hey, we're back now. Definitely a great song, dad and I were watching Led Zeppelin "The Song Remains the Same" last night and holy shit. I was never big on Zeppelin but, you can't say they weren't a Hel of a rock band. Jimmy Page and fucking John Bonham. Definitely kings.
What everyone do not know is that Johan olsen do not always attend on volbeats concerts. Johan olsen is the guy who songs for evigt, the guy in jeans clothes. When e lurks up and begins to sing that gives me huge gose pumps. Alot if people have been very harsh against Johan olsen, for example calling out that he looks lika a bum etc. What most people do not know is that Johan olsen went to the university and got ph.d in proteincrystallography and is a quite big scientist in Copenhagen. Just a little info for the listeners. You should listen to the gardens tale, their music video, Johan olsen also sing in that one on Danish.
I don't give out perfect scores often, but Volbeat's For Evigt (The Bliss) is a PERFECT song start to finish.

Saw them last Saturday. Straight 🔥.
Love your reaction and your take. It is an epic song!
Love love love it ❤
IM TURNING IT TO THE RIGHT AND MY FACE IS MELTING!
The guitarist was in anthrax. Michael Paulson is the lead singer and the band is from Denmark
They've got their "Camera phones".. oh sorry... "Phones" out". HAHAHAHA, that statement dates you... and me too. I didn't even notice until you corrected it, lol.
I love this song so much. My husband introduced me to Volbeat so I insisted this song be played when they introduced us at our wedding reception.
LOL
Going to see them live tomorrow. This video hypes me up even more.
Elite band… 🐐
Love so many songs by Volbeat.
Volbeat is The Best Liveband I ever Heard 🤘
The guest singer is Johan from the Band "Magtens koridorer" Denmark understands ;)
Love your enthusiasm 👏
Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰
Was there for the full live experience. It was epic!
Johan sings: "forever, maybe forever, shall we together on the same way/path, and when tomorrow wakes up, and the night goes to rest, shall we forever, maybe forever the same way/path".
I love this song thank you for reacting

I am Swedish and I do not know what Johan is sinning but I love this song.
excellent personality as a reviewer. well played. subbed
Exactly.. a word of art❤
I love your energy and humor 👍
I was at this concert. I was close to the scene/stage. Rob (guitar player) Almost gave me his guitar. I have met them, and talked to them. They are so nice.
A fantastic reaction to a fantastic song.
Best reaction thank you!
the first time i heard them in summer festival. Evening was a bit boring cause there were a bunch of bands from other countries i never heard before and i didn't feel it, but when come Volbeat on stage i loved from the first to the last song. They had amazing energy and they were very warm to the audience
This was the first song I ever heard by volbeat and I've been a fan ever since. Love both versions of the song. A lot of people don't like the English version so much but I think it's almost as good as the original. When you consider that the danish to English translation is a mouthful and doesn't flow as easily for English listeners it's easy to appreciate the English version. Either way either version is incredible. 🤗🤗
Home field advantage here ....We love Volbeat!!!
The guitarist is Rob Caggiano - old Anthrax guy..
Love your reaktion❤️❤️❤️
Good solid, above average rock music. Really good and solid. Nothing spectacular, but very very good. Then add in Michael's vocals, and you have a world class sound! His voice is one of a kind!
Awesomely composed video. 😅
Bliss you
From Danish ; forever....maybe forever we go together the same way..... and when tomorrow gets eyes and the night is resting we will forever go the same way!
Did you say the thing you wanted?
Have you ever felt in love?
A moment where no problems would ever get you down
Free as an eagle but only for a day (yeah listen)
The final is a warning, wake up before you go
There'll be no second chances, that day you're on your own
Let out the feelings, tomorrow may not come
All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once
See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever
Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid
Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever
Were you listening to the evening?
Have you ever felt the dawn?
When everything around you told stories from the world
Dear mother nature speaks louder than you know
(Oh listen)
The final is a warning, wake up before you go
There'll be no second chances, that day you're on your own
Let out the feelings tomorrow may not come
All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once
See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever
Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid
Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever
We are the birth
We are the end
We are the souls
We have a name
We are the rising and fallen ones
We are the spirit forever more
We are the birth
We are the end
We are the souls
We have a name
We are the rising and fallen ones
We are the spirit forever more
All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once
See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever
Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid
Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever
All alone in the dark, move the curtains for once
See the light life has brought, or goodbye forever
Take the arms that embrace, no more being afraid
Feel the sun on your face, or goodbye forever
The danish band Nephew, is AMAZING live
They did the same for me, first and last time I've heard them.
You're right, I don't think anyone did not know this song that summer, and sang along to it. My 63 to year old mother is at their concert tonight! (I think it's her third with them) :D
I myself think they became to mainstream/poppy at their third album, but I looove their first two! Before Volbeat, Michael was actually a growler in his band Dominus
Im danish so i understand it and its fantastik my dude❤
😅they were the reason for me to start learning daenish 😅🙃
Dude. I absolutely love your energy. I so appreciate how you describe how the music makes you feel. BTW. I am THE biggest Volbeat fan. I would love to share my thoughts of them. with you. Guitarist is Rob Caggiono, formerly with Anthrax. Michael stole him. He plays perfectly.
He's amazing!!
Damn dude. I don't mean to spam the chat... but I can't hold it back. This is no joke. Music is...NO QUESTION...the universal language and this tune/video is the mf'n real deal. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing. And when you start selling that quote you made as merch, you'll find me in your stack of invoices! Stay strong my brother ✊
HAHA for sure
For evig#forever
Love the song 🥰🥰🙏🙏🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰a fan from Denmark
More Volbeat.........yaaaasss,.....
Johan Olsen, the guy who looks like a homeless drug addict, has a PhD in molecular biology and used to work for Copenhagen University. As well as being the lead singer of Magtens Korridorer, a really popular rock band in Denmark.
Robs acoustic guitar is on a stand, fixed. So he can just let go of his electric and walk up to the acoustic and start to play.
Used to work for? Johan Gotthardt Olsen still works for Department of Biology, Biomolecular Sciences, University of Copenhagen as an Assistant Professor (adjunkt in Danish) and Guest Researcher.
Google "Johan Gotthardt Olsen Københavns Universitet" and you can find both his university bio and research profile and see all the research publications he has contributed to throughout the years (so far 31 as of november 2024).
The 2 best Volbeat song to sing along are For Evigt and Lola Montez!!!
Yes I was waiting for some Volbeat. I think I saw this band 15 times live. Even twice in one month. My favorite album is Rock the Rebel / Metal the Devil. And the new album Servant of the Mind is awesome!
Did you know that before Volbeat the singer (Michael Poulsen) had another band? The name of that band is Dominus and they have an album with the title Vol.Beat. So now you know where the name Volbeat came from.
By the way ... Did you listen to the band Gamma Ray yet?
Thanks for another great reaction video!
I've never seen them live, but I'm definitely going to now!! I didn't know any of that, thanks! Nope, haven't heard Gamma Ray
6:45 To the live comment sounding as great as studio, a band I will keep holding to your face is Powerwolf, they're an awesome group of guys who have always put on a great show. They're always getting the crowd riled and excited. Those two links I posted ages ago on one of your Sabaton videos are two of their live performances, great stuff.
Also, for your American only music stream, if you feel up to it, I have a band: Symphony X, Kiss of fire, (the first song I heard) and Set the World on Fire (since it has a music video). Rock on Max
So. Turns out they have a whole album of them LIVE, Live on The Edge of Forever, with one of my favorite songs Grand Design, so that could also be a recommendation. Sadly they don't seem to have video with it, only the Audio
Poulsen/Johan Olsen being to volbeat concert reminds me of being to motorhead /dio same energy
and passion horns up proud to be danish volbeat the gardens tale if you wanna go back in time was at that one there in teliaparken was badass
It is a perfect song
Good on you for trademarking this shit!! ✊
Nice re-reaction mate, however I don't think you listened to the drummer!
He was screaming at you to react to his favorite band: Sort Sol
Don't worry about the name, they sing in English.
Hi from Denmark
As a Native English speaker. The Bliss is good. For Evigt is legendary. It's the same for A Lifetime Of War Vs En Livstid I Krig by Sabaton. I don't speak Swedish. But by god it's perfection
Edit: you mentioned Sabaton after I commented this 😂
In Denmark we call it Elvis Metal
And not to brag, but to brag a little. Denmark is the Rock capital of europe. Sweden and Norway can have metal, we own rock^^
Check out some DAD or Dizzy Mizz Lizzy, even Kashmir. if you want to hear some awesome rock and you'll know I am right
Volbeat is the danish metalica 🤘🤘🤘
I am going to see them at Sweden rock festival this Summer. Nightwish first and right after them it is Volbeat. Its going to be great. For me Nightwish is the better band but still will be a great evening
The song's Titel is "Forever"... I'm Danish.
Volbeat played warm up for Metalica.... on there u.s. tour a couble of years ago.. mush surprice right?
Professional Music Listener - nowadays everyone can do everything, even if you can't do anything :D :D :D
The whole Volbeat thing hasn't caught on with me, even though I'm a Dane.
Magtens Korridorer, the band of the other guy, Johan Olsen though, I've listened to quite a bit.
It could still change though.
Originally I didn't like Dizzy Mizz Lizzy. Possibly because of the hype.
It didn't change till I had to play the bass on some of their songs(while taking music classes).
Still Counting was the first song I ever heard years ago when I was a kid, and always liked it, it wasn't until I grew up more and understand what I liked more that I found the band again. Great Musik. Great band. A shame I only remembered them from your steams but hey, we're back now. Definitely a great song, dad and I were watching Led Zeppelin "The Song Remains the Same" last night and holy shit. I was never big on Zeppelin but, you can't say they weren't a Hel of a rock band. Jimmy Page and fucking John Bonham. Definitely kings.
Johan Olsen !!!
Gotta love lola montez too
start by gardens tale era extra infor guitarist is former Anthrax but yea all great mucicians
Doc Holiday.
You won't be disappointed.
I don't really like The Bliss. For Evigt is so much better. Sounds strange, i know.
What everyone do not know is that Johan olsen do not always attend on volbeats concerts. Johan olsen is the guy who songs for evigt, the guy in jeans clothes.
When e lurks up and begins to sing that gives me huge gose pumps.
Alot if people have been very harsh against Johan olsen, for example calling out that he looks lika a bum etc.
What most people do not know is that Johan olsen went to the university and got ph.d in proteincrystallography and is a quite big scientist in Copenhagen.
Just a little info for the listeners.
You should listen to the gardens tale, their music video, Johan olsen also sing in that one on Danish.
