My Spotify Skywind playlist: open.spotify.com/playlist/5KrdeHQQKTf1XRVMyhwS2Z?si=2IgHIShNSnGHPvm8emyr5Q If you enjoy this track please visit me on there - you should be able to find something to enjoy. It contains all my tracks released for the project.. almost. This track is still excluded - we'll have to put our faith in Bethesda for this one I'm afraid.
I finally managed to translate the lyrics: Moon-and-Star, Hortator, Azura's champion godhead denier, Sharmat's death, great leader Nerevar Moon-and-Star, Hortator, Azura's champion godhead denier, Sharmat's death, prophesied reformer We pray for your victorious soul to return, Nerevar
Just as a side note, "Hortator" means "Great War Leader" in Chimeri. "The Sharmat" is also analogous to "The Devil", so Sharmat can be translated to Devil.
@@RahmpageChicken turns out it's not Chimeri in origin, but English 😂 Hortator is an actual word. Somewhat synonymous to what it means in the game (Exhorter; Encourager)
my husband is such a nerd with Morrowind, that in our wedding ceremony, when we entered the hall to dance in front of everyone, he had "the road most traveled" playing... No one knew but his brothers, yet they all liked it...
I only now, after 17 years since the game first was released, realized that the drum beat is the Heart of Lorkhan, beating in the depths of the Red Mountain. I can't believe i'm saying this, but the song is on par with the original, and the vocals moved me to tears.
All the hours, hundreds.. if not thousands i have put into Morrowind... and i did not realize this... And this is why morrowind was and is the best Elder Scrolls game ever made so far and probably in the future as well. The attention to detail they put in that game is mindboggeling..
@@ladyselin35 Fullfill your own ambition. Forget the prophecy. Nobody cares the shit about it. Build your mushroom and live inside with lustry agronian maidens.
Honestly, its funny how in Morrowind, you do that buy making potions of inteligence. Drinking them, make milion of potions that you then sell. Then use that money to buy and make more potions to make yourself stronger, and then, once you leave the town, there are 5 gods in Morrowind. And ya know what? Still better than skyrim
I love how the choir is written like an ashlander prayer for the return of nerevar. Honestly what a masterpiece. This is one of the greatest things I've heard in a while.
I honestly cannot believe this piece is real. That’s how good it is. When Skywind dropped that trailer earlier, I was pretty much in tears. I like to think I’m the most diehard Morrowind fan in a 1000 mile radius, as I’ve played the game pretty much daily since I was very young. Nerevar Rising has always been a very big comfort to me in dark times, as it reminds me of a lot of exceptionally fun times I’ve had with Morrowind. Needless to say, both the piece and Morrowind are very, very dear to my heart. I am ALWAYS skeptical of reworks/remasters of it, because nobody seems to know how to capture the feelings that Nerevar Rising invokes in me, and other fans. But- Fredrik, you’ve done it. Excuse my language, but you’ve fucking done it. I am BLOWN away by how simultaneously powerful, beautiful and calming this piece is. Every second of this is worth savoring. I expressed to you before on Merciful and Benevolent that you captured the feeling of Morrowind perfectly with that piece, but you have outdone yourself here. You and the vocalists.

kurrzone, I'm so touched by your words. It's hard to grasp that the work being made in my studio can have such a huge impact on listeners far, far away - and I can't thank you enough for letting me know. Not only as encouragement for mod making or as a reminder to handle the original work with utmost respect, but for putting a perspective on my whole creative process. Your and the community's reception as a whole of this theme has outdone my highest expectations, and I'm deeply, deeply thankful and proud of that. This answer came late because I wanted to make sure I had the time to express my gratitude. Thank you!

I like to imagine that the lyrics are canon, the Dunmer just singing during work or Dunmeri women singing it to their children, the people patiently waiting for the return of Nerevar.
The Nerevarine prophecies were something that were only known among Ashlanders and the dissident priests. It's not something most Dunmer would know about or be waiting for
@@BroadwayRonMexico Correct. The Temple actually chose to speak against the Nerevarine prophecies in a feeble attempt to help the Tribunal keep their power, but when they betrayed Nerevar and Dagoth Ur to use the Heart of Lorkhan to become Gods, they set in motion events that couldn't be reversed, one of those was the return of Indoril Nerevar's incarnation to destroy the Tribunal and defeating the corrupted Dagoth Ur to restore peace to Morrowind.
That singing about the Sharmat and Nerevar at the end makes me think of a group of Urshilaku women gathered around the Wise Woman, singing their Nerevarine prophecies.
You've just summed up the whole game in 5 minutes of a masterpiece music 0:00 - 1:18 - Arriving to Vverdenfel 1:19 - 2:50 - House Dagoth has awoken 2:51 - 4:48 - Nerevar's ascension
I don't care if Skywind never sees the light of day, this song makes this lore-nerd shed a tear everytime I hear it. Thanks Fredrik, I really hope your talent gets more recognition in the industry.
Skywind Is a fanmade project which recreates the entire game Tes III Morrowind in the Skyrim SE Engine, currently in development and no release date has been revealed yet.
"We pray for your triumphant soul's return, Nerevar." Huh, just realized this applies to both the Nerevarine Prophecy and to Skywind as a project in general
In the Red Mountain, The Sharmat’s power grows. Behold, Moon and Star; The Heart that knows. And in the chamber, Where destiny is made, Come, Nerevar, To fulfill prophecy betrayed.
This isn't just faithful to the original, this is inspired in its own right. Stunning. Exhilarating. This could easily be the main theme of a block buster film. The composition, instrumental and vocal performance, as well as mixing and sound mastery are all some of the best I've ever heard. Thank you to the composers and performers for sharing this wonderful gift!
Quite frankly I think it's a damn sight better than the original. It brought tears to my eyes. To the composer and vocalists, and everyone else on the Skywind and TESR teams: thank you so much for this. Just.. Thank you.
@@fa_ir_ies Or maybe HBO series... with opening with this track (2:51-4:48) and some outlander as main character that traveled by boat to Vvardenfell. I'm not sure I would be able to watch it without nostalgic emotions. First look around in Seyda Neen, talks with Fargoth about his ring, Silt Strider's roar at background, giant mushrooms, swamps, "We're watching you scum" when character gets to Vivec City, Cliff Raicers, Guars, Balmora, saving old woman's pillows from rats, "The Road Most Traveled" and "Peaceful Waters", Great Houses of Hlaalu, Redoran and Telvanni with their crazy people, that guy near to Gnisis that was bitten by Slaughterfish... I'm afraid that show would make some adult people cry. Including me :D Too much memories
What he puts his hand to, that shall be done. What is left undone, that shall be done. On a certain day, to uncertain parents, incarnate moon and star reborn Neither blight nor age can harm him; the Curse-of-Flesh before him flies In caverns dark Azura's eye sees, and makes to shine the moon and star A stranger's voice unites the Houses. Three Halls call him Hortator A stranger's hand unites the Velothi. Four tribes call him Nerevarine. He honours blood of the tribe unmourned. He eats their sin, and is reborn. His mercy frees the cursed false gods, binds the broken, redeems the mad. He speaks the law for Veloth's people. He speaks for their land, and names them great.
The main template of the TES game themes have been going on since Daggerfall. So you could say - Skyrim follows that template, not the other way around.
I am stunned, I did no expect Dunmeri singing at the end. I wish and don't wish you added this throughout the entire song, the rising crescendo makes up for it. After all these years, there's finally a rendition that doesn't serve underneath the Nerevar theme but beside it. In pride and glory. Well done, it brought genuine tears to the weary eyes.
Imagine getting out of the boat and soaking in the 4k ascadian isles for the first time, whilst this plays in the background. I'm gonna cry some manly-ass tears when Skywind finally drops.
The beginning of the chorus is the ashlanders. Alone, but strong in their belief. The duet is all of Morrowind: the Houses, the Guilds, and the people. The Nerevarine is there for them all
A truly splendid rendition of the classic theme. Invokes those wistful memories without being slavish to them in the first act. The move into dark, ominous territory with the Sixth House vocal section, before finishing with a gentle but operatic flourish, is expertly handled. It should be jarring, but it's anything but that.
@@FredrikJonassonMusic what is it they're saying during the sixth house section? You have the lyrics for the operatic section up, but idk what they're saying in that section. Is it just the first line of the lyrics?
It is said that on that day, when the gods fell, the Ashlanders erupted into song, overpowering the groans of Red Mountain herself. They sang their prayer in celebration, the "outlander" was, indeed, their great leader.
I cry when I hear this song. There are no suitable words to describe the beauty and power of this composition. Very epic and beautiful track. You are heroes.
When The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind chapter's theme "A Land of War and Poetry" was released I thought they did a great job at reimagining the original "Nerevar Rising", but man, you outdone them in every way possible! Especially the finish from 3:46 till the end... it's so beautifull and soothing. And those lyrics! Not only the dunmeri version sounds great, but the translation is so nostalgic and heart catching. I literally have tears in my eyes and goosbumps all over my body when listening to it, no kidding.
I’ve never even played Morrowind and this blew me away. This is a really well made track! I’m very excited to see what else is in store for Skywind as my first experience into the world of Vvardenfell.
Ik, me too, this is so powerful and so much love is being put into this, I’m very excited for this, I’m very thankful to all the people who work on this
give the game a go. it's hard to get into in the modern day, but played with the openmw engine, a font mod, and perhaps something to rebalance stamina and run speed to make it less annoying, you'll be golden.
Figured you might like to know that you can play the entirety of Morrowind on your phone, with DLCs, for free (if you have an android, at least). Currently playing it right now and its working wonderfully, I'm having a lot of fun!
“Once, I was a Master Crafter in the service of Lord Kagrenac, chief architect of the great Second Empire freeholds, and the greatest enchanter of his time. I could not match the genius of Lord Kagrenac, but what he could envision, I and my colleagues could build. All of that is gone forever. I still retain my cunning, but my hands and eyes fail me, and my memories have long faded. My only consolation is each day to mock the Gods who destroyed my race, and condemned me to this bleak existence."
@@ammagon4519 but of course, his body was bloated because of the disease. His mind was the last to go... and for a dwarf, that is both incredibly powerful and deeply concerning for an outsider.
@@threekeysmusic yeah, I would just assume he just want to be at least funny cause he does want a friend, especially when all of your kind has gone extinct. Gosh I wish I could see him again after the events of Morrowind.
@@ammagon4519 I honestly feel like the Dwemer are still alive. I know a lot of people believe they became the skin of their Brass God, but I just have a feeling that wasn’t the case... never hurts to dream, I suppose. Lol.
This whole song is a masterpiece, but I am genuine in saying that I think 2:58 and beyond is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Actually brought tears to my eyes!
I like the neat little detail of the staple TES theme drums sounding like a heart. Very fitting for Morrowind due to it's storyline involving the Heart of Lorkhan. Was this intentional?
@@MirwenAnareth I know that, that's why I wrote "staple drums". They are in Skyrim as well. But they didn't sound as much as heartbeat in Morrowind or Skyrim, they were just drums. Here it sounds more organic, but maybe it's just me hearing things. ;)
As far as i'm concerned... I don't think we've ever seen Jeremy Soule and Fredrik Jonasson in the same place at the same time... Coincidence ? I think not !
Ok, I had to pull over to leave a comment... This is insanely good. If Bethesda doesn't hire you to make their music, they are missing out! Goosebumps when the female voices come in....
I know others have said it but I really appreciate you and your team’s rendition of this famous track. The vocals at the end made me cry. Incredible work
In 2006, I was in my early teens. My Grandfather came home with this game’s cd and a Dog (Husky). Both my Granddad and that Husky is no more in this world. But this game literally changed my life. I still have this game installed in EVERY PCs and Laptops that I have. Whenever I play this game, I think about my time with my granddad and my husky.
Absolute chills. I can already see it now: Intro 00:00 - 1:15 *Searching and lingering the lost tunnels when, finally...* Arrival 1:40 - 2:20 *The men arrived, and saw The Nerevarine posessed and suspended into the air amongst the banished cell; as if his mind and body were locked out of time. Cursed and Forbidden. Bound by Nocturnal's Shackles.* Ritual 2:55 - 3:20 *A sacred ritual must be done. As they approach the Nerevarine they call fourth the past incarnates and fellow worshippers to pray and chant thru ritual in good faith.* Climax 3:21 - 4:20 *As the spirits and followers answer the call, they surround The Nerevarine in efforts to free him* Last Verse 4:20 - 4:30 *As the ritual ends, the Nerevarine, once ashened and shackled; now cleansed and free* *Lowers to the ground . . stands tall and glowing in gold. Opens his eyes . . .* "My turn."
I make a point to listen to this every 5-6 months or so and every single time, without fail, the crescendo before the first "Nerevar" line hits hard enough to bring tears. What a composition, thank you.
Damn, back here again after what's felt like half a decade. This still hits in the same spot; there's no doubt in my mind that this is the strongest piece of music I've ever listened to.
This is stunning. Absolutely. I happened to have it playing again tonight while cooking with my mom, and I guess being around a parent and having this phenomenal take on such and integral part of the soundtrack to my formative years grabbed me more than I expected. Because she said to me, very sincerely, "I wish I could go wherever that song took you." Thank you for the journey.
The first 45 seconds gave me absolute chills. This was beautiful - it took me back to my days of playing Morrowind in the apartment in New Jersey...thank you for creating such a beautiful piece.
When the entire choir joined in for the lyrics in the first verse the 2nd time...inspirational beyond words. These singers truly elevated your already great rendition of the theme.
Sure... Make a theme for Skywind... Deliver absolute perfection... Overwhelm everyone with feelings... Make grown men tear up... 😂 Absolute insanity how you struck a nerve here and knocked that thing out of the park production wise. I f*cking love it, man!
@@FredrikJonassonMusic No, actually, thank you. I've been listening to your other uploads and loved the hell out of it. Not only is Skywind in good hands and I'm terribly hyped for it, I also think you've got some serious talent for music. Don't ever let it go to waste. You also made me fire up Reason again to Start composing for myself. Didn't realise how much I missed that. I read in another comment that you use Cubase for your productions and I think I'll check it out in the future. So, seriously... Well done, my friend. I'm gonna keep following your work. 😊
@@catburglar82 Pretty cool that I inspired you to start producing again :) I used Reason when I started out many years ago and really enjoyed it. Please do stick around. Unless my situation is changed I probably have done my share of Skywind tracks now, but other stuff is coming.
Morrowind has always been so personal to me, it was always my world. This piece of work is utterly incredible, I'm at a loss for words, you sir are an absolute legend, but you know how to make a grown man cry...Absolutely beautiful, I hope you are proud of what you have done here.Thank you.
Wow the first part just made me nostalgic to get off the boat into Seyda Neen, the second part made me remember raiding 6th house strongholds, and the last part utterly blew me away.
I think I just got launched back to the greatest moments of my childhoood. I am a time traveler, it must be true. Brings a tear to my eye. Thank you, kindly.
So awesome that you added Dunmeri lyrics! What a way to enhance one of my favorite songs! I can't get enough of this! please come up with an extended edition!
Holy moly, I'm speechless. This is probably the best arrangement I've heard of this song (arguably better than the original, in my personal opinion). I absolutely love the suspensions and dissonance in the melody once that female ensemble enters. Bravo!
Got to love the positive comments here. I never played Morrowind. But I'm really excited to play Skywind and I can't believe it's a mod, made by talented people, dedicated to working on it for free. Altruism exists.
I can't remember if I've already commented this but this really is the most beautiful piece I've ever heard! The addition of lyrics is overwhelmingly good!
I simply don't know what to say. Despite me only starting Morrowind last year, my nostalgia is overflowing. Chopping down Cliff Racers with Eltonbrand, getting rich selling Dark Brotherhood gear to Creeper, boosting my intelligence with potions just to make more powerful potions. I'm sure the full mod will have all this and more. Except maybe the potion exploit. Seriously. That was crazy OP.
this really fits the setting of Morrowind, all comes to my mind is the red mountain and dagoth ur, corpus flesh eating freaks when i heard the part with darker tones. So amaizing, God works through you! Or should i say Azura
it be a good idea for the boss theme and at the 2:50 that music part can be a epic end song to show that we have finally put dagoth ur to rest and that Vvardenfell is safe
It's freaking beautiful! It really is comparable to original, and original is one of my all-time favorite tracks, along with Skyrim's Dragonborn and Gladiator's Now We Are Free.
Moments I would love for this to play(especially the ending music) 1. Entering the Cave of the Incarnate, when all the Failed Incarnates start singing as Azura gives you Moon and Star 2. You exit Red Mountain after defeating Dagoth Ur, as the Ghostfence is deactivated
I think the second option is great. I just beat Morrowind tonight. Coming out of Red Mountain after killing Dagoth Ur and seeing the skies bright and blue was touching. I had the sudden idea to play this, so I put it on in the background while I used my last Icarian Flight scroll to jump back down to Ghostgate. It was very pleasant and climactic and I had a smile on my face the whole time. This is definitely an "end credits" kinda song.

I don't care if Skywind never sees the light of day, this song makes this lore-nerd shed a tear everytime I hear it. Thanks Fredrik, I really hope your talent gets more recognition in the industry.
Thank you so much, it means a lot!
Skywind Is a fanmade project which recreates the entire game Tes III Morrowind in the Skyrim SE Engine, currently in development and no release date has been revealed yet.
@@midway3998 Bro are you an ai? Tf?
"We pray for your triumphant soul's return, Nerevar." Huh, just realized this applies to both the Nerevarine Prophecy and to Skywind as a project in general
Very true!
In the Red Mountain,
The Sharmat’s power grows.
Behold, Moon and Star;
The Heart that knows.
And in the chamber,
Where destiny is made,
Come, Nerevar,
To fulfill prophecy betrayed.
This isn't just faithful to the original, this is inspired in its own right. Stunning. Exhilarating. This could easily be the main theme of a block buster film. The composition, instrumental and vocal performance, as well as mixing and sound mastery are all some of the best I've ever heard. Thank you to the composers and performers for sharing this wonderful gift!
You make my day. I don't know what to say, other than that I'm extremely grateful!
It is amazing!
Yessss a Morrowind Film😍that would be amazing
Quite frankly I think it's a damn sight better than the original. It brought tears to my eyes.
To the composer and vocalists, and everyone else on the Skywind and TESR teams: thank you so much for this. Just.. Thank you.
@@fa_ir_ies Or maybe HBO series... with opening with this track (2:51-4:48) and some outlander as main character that traveled by boat to Vvardenfell.
I'm not sure I would be able to watch it without nostalgic emotions. First look around in Seyda Neen, talks with Fargoth about his ring, Silt Strider's roar at background, giant mushrooms, swamps, "We're watching you scum" when character gets to Vivec City, Cliff Raicers, Guars, Balmora, saving old woman's pillows from rats, "The Road Most Traveled" and "Peaceful Waters", Great Houses of Hlaalu, Redoran and Telvanni with their crazy people, that guy near to Gnisis that was bitten by Slaughterfish... I'm afraid that show would make some adult people cry. Including me :D Too much memories
I can almost hear the cliff racers gathering just to bite our asses
Until St. Jiub follows us from the ship to the land of Vvardenfell to get rid of this little birdies.

Even if Skywind never does happen, it was worth it because of this.
Means a lot, thanks!
What he puts his hand to, that shall be done. What is left undone, that shall be done.
On a certain day, to uncertain parents, incarnate moon and star reborn
Neither blight nor age can harm him; the Curse-of-Flesh before him flies
In caverns dark Azura's eye sees, and makes to shine the moon and star
A stranger's voice unites the Houses. Three Halls call him Hortator
A stranger's hand unites the Velothi. Four tribes call him Nerevarine.
He honours blood of the tribe unmourned. He eats their sin, and is reborn.
His mercy frees the cursed false gods, binds the broken, redeems the mad.
He speaks the law for Veloth's people. He speaks for their land, and names them great.
I love this so much
You can’t read this while the choir part of the song plays, remember what was, and not cry for a land that’s never been.
I wish the choir part is longer. Its too beautiful and more epic than the original in my opinion.
Agreed
We dont deserve this. Jeremy Soule would be proud.
Oh you do deserve it :) Thank you so much for listening!
Kauphee Ghrinds this didn’t age well
@@MysteriousPear802 Why do you say that the comment didn't age well?
Colton Allanson Jeremy Soule was accused of rape. He won’t be working in the industry anymore.
the women didn't press any charges, nothing happened
I’m literally a music major and I’ve never had a more emotional reaction to music than to this. Absolutely phenomenal
Man that is huge :') Thank you so much!
I love how they follow the template of Skyrim theme, that is "Epic version of Morrowing theme with choir in native language of province in finale"
That was Todd's idea.
@@TheZombieCurryKid Only if they had the theme for skyblivion be in whatever the imperials speak,tamriellic I think.
The main template of the TES game themes have been going on since Daggerfall. So you could say - Skyrim follows that template, not the other way around.

By Almalexia's grace... this is beautiful
BY AZURA!
Praise their holy name
False Gods
I am stunned, I did no expect Dunmeri singing at the end. I wish and don't wish you added this throughout the entire song, the rising crescendo makes up for it. After all these years, there's finally a rendition that doesn't serve underneath the Nerevar theme but beside it. In pride and glory.
Well done, it brought genuine tears to the weary eyes.
Perhaps this song is a reincarnation of the original.
Nerevarine Rising.

I can't believe you hid that incredible singing away until 3 minutes in!!!
I know, shame on me. Marie and Bente sound mezmerizing

@@FredrikJonassonMusic the first three minutes was how my ex teased during intercourse
@@infinitedeathloop5517 Pretty sadistic stuff then!
@@infinitedeathloop5517 so 3 minutes of foreplay and just under 2 minutes of sex, imagine telling on yourself like that
Imagine getting out of the boat and soaking in the 4k ascadian isles for the first time, whilst this plays in the background.
I'm gonna cry some manly-ass tears when Skywind finally drops.
It's gonna be something very special indeed.
The beginning of the chorus is the ashlanders. Alone, but strong in their belief. The duet is all of Morrowind: the Houses, the Guilds, and the people. The Nerevarine is there for them all
Never played Morrowind but 2:58 brings tears to my eyes. Amazing.
Best compliment I could wish for. Thank you!
@@FredrikJonassonMusicBy the way, are the dunmeri(?) lyrics available somwhere, and/or a translation...?
myrelion91 both are in the description
Please play it!
Same
A truly splendid rendition of the classic theme. Invokes those wistful memories without being slavish to them in the first act. The move into dark, ominous territory with the Sixth House vocal section, before finishing with a gentle but operatic flourish, is expertly handled. It should be jarring, but it's anything but that.
Thank you so much Ryan! Really means a lot. Are you still recording lines for Skywind?
@@FredrikJonassonMusic Am indeed when I'm not doing the Indie stuff, got an Orc and a Khajiit, and whatever else they want me to do.
Happy to hear that you're keeping it up! Hope you're other commissions are going fine as well :)
Yeah it was some good shit
@@FredrikJonassonMusic what is it they're saying during the sixth house section? You have the lyrics for the operatic section up, but idk what they're saying in that section. Is it just the first line of the lyrics?
Luhn-silvar, hortator,

Panthi-seht, sharmat-dra,
Gahjuli Nerevar
Osuhn almese sut ohm yalif sul devahr,

Translation please
@@SilverGamingFI English version in the description.
the lyrics are already in the description???? theres no need for this comment
It is said that on that day, when the gods fell, the Ashlanders erupted into song, overpowering the groans of Red Mountain herself. They sang their prayer in celebration, the "outlander" was, indeed, their great leader.
2:40 jesus christ man this is amazing
I'm only now realizing the rhythmic beat we hear in the song is suppose to be the Heart of Lorkahn beating as it rests inside Red Mountain
:D
I cry when I hear this song. There are no suitable words to describe the beauty and power of this composition. Very epic and beautiful track. You are heroes.
Thank you Ms. Milkshaker for the support!
When The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind chapter's theme "A Land of War and Poetry" was released I thought they did a great job at reimagining the original "Nerevar Rising", but man, you outdone them in every way possible! Especially the finish from 3:46 till the end... it's so beautifull and soothing. And those lyrics! Not only the dunmeri version sounds great, but the translation is so nostalgic and heart catching. I literally have tears in my eyes and goosbumps all over my body when listening to it, no kidding.
The lyrics is really beautiful indeed, huge props to Smitehammer. And I'm so humbled by your words, thanks!
This was FANTASTIC. Especially from 2:58 when the vocals kicked in, it pretty much became a struggle not to cry over this masterpiece of a song.
The vocalists really did a great job, I'm so thankful for their performance. Thanks a lot for your kind words
This theme made me achieve CHIM
You can save and load your progress now?
I’ve never even played Morrowind and this blew me away. This is a really well made track! I’m very excited to see what else is in store for Skywind as my first experience into the world of Vvardenfell.
Glad to hear it!
Play the Game it's the Best from elder scrolls
Ik, me too, this is so powerful and so much love is being put into this, I’m very excited for this, I’m very thankful to all the people who work on this
give the game a go. it's hard to get into in the modern day, but played with the openmw engine, a font mod, and perhaps something to rebalance stamina and run speed to make it less annoying, you'll be golden.
Figured you might like to know that you can play the entirety of Morrowind on your phone, with DLCs, for free (if you have an android, at least). Currently playing it right now and its working wonderfully, I'm having a lot of fun!
Chills. That's what I felt throughout this entire piece.
Same. Fucking glorious.
"im literally shaking"
^that's a joke btw. this comment section is getting too emotional
Nerevar Rising is one of the best melodies ever made IMO, and this rendition truly makes it justice, also IMO
“Once, I was a Master Crafter in the service of Lord Kagrenac, chief architect of the great Second Empire freeholds, and the greatest enchanter of his time.
I could not match the genius of Lord Kagrenac, but what he could envision, I and my colleagues could build.
All of that is gone forever.
I still retain my cunning, but my hands and eyes fail me, and my memories have long faded. My only consolation is each day to mock the Gods who destroyed my race, and condemned me to this bleak existence."
Gosh I felt bad laughing at Yagrum bause he looks chubby and weird
@@ammagon4519 😂 true. I love how the unused voice files for Yagrum make him sound like a neckbeard, too. XD
@@ammagon4519 but of course, his body was bloated because of the disease. His mind was the last to go... and for a dwarf, that is both incredibly powerful and deeply concerning for an outsider.
@@threekeysmusic yeah, I would just assume he just want to be at least funny cause he does want a friend, especially when all of your kind has gone extinct. Gosh I wish I could see him again after the events of Morrowind.
@@ammagon4519 I honestly feel like the Dwemer are still alive. I know a lot of people believe they became the skin of their Brass God, but I just have a feeling that wasn’t the case... never hurts to dream, I suppose. Lol.
This whole song is a masterpiece, but I am genuine in saying that I think 2:58 and beyond is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Actually brought tears to my eyes!
When a bunch of fans does a better work than actual game devs. Absolutely fantastic!
I like the neat little detail of the staple TES theme drums sounding like a heart. Very fitting for Morrowind due to it's storyline involving the Heart of Lorkhan. Was this intentional?
@@Michae89 It is actually in the original as well. :)
@@MirwenAnareth I know that, that's why I wrote "staple drums". They are in Skyrim as well. But they didn't sound as much as heartbeat in Morrowind or Skyrim, they were just drums. Here it sounds more organic, but maybe it's just me hearing things. ;)
@@Michae89 You nailed it actually, that was completely intentional!
@@Michae89 I know you.
As far as i'm concerned... I don't think we've ever seen Jeremy Soule and
Fredrik Jonasson in the same place at the same time...
Coincidence ?
I think not !
This. Comment.
Unironically we need a crossover episode.
@mtZi LMAO
@mtZi I'm out of the loop why didn't it age well?
Meh. The bad doesn’t erase the good, nor the good the bad.
Yeah, that's going to be a "holy shit you absolutely nailed it" from me dawg.
Ok, I had to pull over to leave a comment...
This is insanely good. If Bethesda doesn't hire you to make their music, they are missing out!
Goosebumps when the female voices come in....
Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it!
female voices comes in really hits to the heart
I know others have said it but I really appreciate you and your team’s rendition of this famous track. The vocals at the end made me cry. Incredible work
The feedback and appreciation from the community is so important so please keep it coming :) Very glad you like it!
Beautiful. The community is so lucky to have you.
Peter, thank you so, so much.
Utterly beautiful, words cannot describe how much I love this and how excited I am for Skywind. Thank you so much for creating such wonderful music.
Comments like these means so much, thank you!
All hail the Dragonbo-...Nerevar!
Word!
The Nerevar rises
Our savior, our savior bears the Hortator's heart! I tell you, I tell you the Nerevar comes!
Dragonborn is weak compare to Nerevarine.
Had anyone seen them at the same place? I don't think so!
In 2006, I was in my early teens. My Grandfather came home with this game’s cd and a Dog (Husky).
Both my Granddad and that Husky is no more in this world. But this game literally changed my life.
I still have this game installed in EVERY PCs and Laptops that I have. Whenever I play this game, I think about my time with my granddad and my husky.
Absolute chills.
I can already see it now:
Intro 00:00 - 1:15
*Searching and lingering the lost tunnels when, finally...*
Arrival 1:40 - 2:20
*The men arrived, and saw The Nerevarine posessed and suspended into the air amongst the banished cell; as if his mind and body were locked out of time. Cursed and Forbidden. Bound by Nocturnal's Shackles.*
Ritual 2:55 - 3:20
*A sacred ritual must be done. As they approach the Nerevarine they call fourth the past incarnates and fellow worshippers to pray and chant thru ritual in good faith.*
Climax 3:21 - 4:20
*As the spirits and followers answer the call, they surround The Nerevarine in efforts to free him*
Last Verse 4:20 - 4:30
*As the ritual ends, the Nerevarine, once ashened and shackled; now cleansed and free*
*Lowers to the ground . . stands tall and glowing in gold. Opens his eyes . . .*
"My turn."
2:58 Is just 😩👌
Great work as always!
Thanks Shadow! Marie and Bente really sound amazing
I wish that part would last hours
I must say I always loved morrowind theme and when I hear that voice I cried, thank you really much
0:00 to 4:49 is just 😩👌
Does that seperate bit have a name? It seems there are 3 different songs in this video, but I might be wrong... :)
I make a point to listen to this every 5-6 months or so
and every single time, without fail, the crescendo before the first "Nerevar" line hits hard enough to bring tears.
What a composition, thank you.
Damn, back here again after what's felt like half a decade.
This still hits in the same spot; there's no doubt in my mind that this is the strongest piece of music I've ever listened to.
the ending section just fills one with the emotion of "ITS HAPPENING OH MY GOD ITS HAPPENING YES! ITS HAPPENING!"
I literally cried
It's a masterpiece
This is stunning. Absolutely.
I happened to have it playing again tonight while cooking with my mom, and I guess being around a parent and having this phenomenal take on such and integral part of the soundtrack to my formative years grabbed me more than I expected. Because she said to me, very sincerely, "I wish I could go wherever that song took you."
Thank you for the journey.
That is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
I always get a weird feeling when modders make better products than the original game. Great soundtrack!
Jesus, This is my 1st time hearing this. I'm literally blown away by this. Great work to all of you who produced this.
Thank you!
This is my new favorite rendition of the Morrowind theme.
And that's a huge compliment, thanks!
same here, it almost made me cry first time was hearing this in the trailer 😭
Your profile picture makes me think you're qualified
@@SamahLama Who knows right?
Agreed completely, the original was a great and iconic theme, but this arrangement is practically magical.
The first 45 seconds gave me absolute chills. This was beautiful - it took me back to my days of playing Morrowind in the apartment in New Jersey...thank you for creating such a beautiful piece.
And thank you for listening :)
When the entire choir joined in for the lyrics in the first verse the 2nd time...inspirational beyond words.
These singers truly elevated your already great rendition of the theme.
Thank you!
Goddamn it, I'm crying. I was fine until I heard the singing and then I just lost it.
The vocalists did such a good job so it's fully understandable :)
Agreed....as soon as i heard the singing my hair stood up on end
Same. That was a swift kick in the feels. Wow.
I agree.
Let's not be afraid of superlatives --'
Sure...
Make a theme for Skywind...
Deliver absolute perfection...
Overwhelm everyone with feelings...
Make grown men tear up... 😂
Absolute insanity how you struck a nerve here and knocked that thing out of the park production wise. I f*cking love it, man!
Amazing comment, thank you so much for the encouraging words!!
@@FredrikJonassonMusic No, actually, thank you. I've been listening to your other uploads and loved the hell out of it. Not only is Skywind in good hands and I'm terribly hyped for it, I also think you've got some serious talent for music. Don't ever let it go to waste.
You also made me fire up Reason again to Start composing for myself. Didn't realise how much I missed that.
I read in another comment that you use Cubase for your productions and I think I'll check it out in the future.
So, seriously... Well done, my friend. I'm gonna keep following your work. 😊
@@catburglar82 Pretty cool that I inspired you to start producing again :) I used Reason when I started out many years ago and really enjoyed it.
Please do stick around. Unless my situation is changed I probably have done my share of Skywind tracks now, but other stuff is coming.
Morrowind has always been so personal to me, it was always my world. This piece of work is utterly incredible, I'm at a loss for words, you sir are an absolute legend, but you know how to make a grown man cry...Absolutely beautiful, I hope you are proud of what you have done here.Thank you.
When I read comments like yours I definitely feel proud. Thank you!

Im in love with this
Wow the first part just made me nostalgic to get off the boat into Seyda Neen, the second part made me remember raiding 6th house strongholds, and the last part utterly blew me away.
Makes me so happy, thank you!
@@FredrikJonassonMusic I actually redownload Morrowind and am working on downloading texture mods right now.
The vocals give me pure chills every time without fail
1:05 to 2:50 "What a grand and intoxicating innocence..."
I think I just got launched back to the greatest moments of my childhoood. I am a time traveler, it must be true. Brings a tear to my eye. Thank you, kindly.
Makes me proud, thank you!
I am shooketh every time I hear this even 4 years later
And that is the ultimate achievement, thank you!
So awesome that you added Dunmeri lyrics! What a way to enhance one of my favorite songs! I can't get enough of this! please come up with an extended edition!
Gave me LOTR Howard shore vibes, truly amazing. The lyrics are beautiful
Now _that_ is a compliment.
I can hear a bit of Titanic as well
I'm literally crying ... that how good this music is
You know its amazing when it brings tears to your eyes. That singing was just beautiful!
So happy to hear that!
Holy moly, I'm speechless. This is probably the best arrangement I've heard of this song (arguably better than the original, in my personal opinion). I absolutely love the suspensions and dissonance in the melody once that female ensemble enters. Bravo!
Thanks a lot, I'm very happy to hear that!
Holy shit. Chills. Clearly you poured heart and soul into this project. This could easily be a main game theme.
A lot of work definitely went into it so I'm happy to se that you like it :)
Got to love the positive comments here. I never played Morrowind. But I'm really excited to play Skywind and I can't believe it's a mod, made by talented people, dedicated to working on it for free.
Altruism exists.
It does, in a time when we need it the most.
Thank you Mark!
Wow, the vocals caught me by surprise and gave me goosebumps. Well done.
Glad you liked it!
I can't remember if I've already commented this but this really is the most beautiful piece I've ever heard! The addition of lyrics is overwhelmingly good!
Wow thank you! It was a team effort and we really wanted to make it something special
I simply don't know what to say. Despite me only starting Morrowind last year, my nostalgia is overflowing. Chopping down Cliff Racers with Eltonbrand, getting rich selling Dark Brotherhood gear to Creeper, boosting my intelligence with potions just to make more powerful potions. I'm sure the full mod will have all this and more. Except maybe the potion exploit. Seriously. That was crazy OP.
this really fits the setting of Morrowind, all comes to my mind is the red mountain and dagoth ur, corpus flesh eating freaks when i heard the part with darker tones. So amaizing, God works through you! Or should i say Azura
Thank you Fjodor for your very kind words!
That dark part should be played as a boss theme for dagoth
That was initially the idea if I remember it correctly.
it be a good idea for the boss theme and at the 2:50 that music part can be a epic end song to show that we have finally put dagoth ur to rest and that Vvardenfell is safe
It's freaking beautiful! It really is comparable to original, and original is one of my all-time favorite tracks, along with Skyrim's Dragonborn and Gladiator's Now We Are Free.
Beautiful words. Thank you!
Начало расслабляет наводит приятные воспоминания, середина создаёт эпичные флешбеки а концовка... пробивает до мурашек, это было прекрасно!
Woah. This is incredible. Once the choir set in every single hair on my body stood up straight. Nice work Fredrik!
Thanks a lot Jonas, I appreciate it!
This is up there together with the Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim themes. Oh damm I can´t believe how good it is. Much respect
Thanks a lot!
I am in tears. This is so beautiful, I cannot stand it. Well done.
"We make a special trip, same low price."
2:58 made me CHIM in my pants thank you
Thanks man!
@@FredrikJonassonMusic no problem
i get you fam, but i Zero-Summed *ALL* over my room
I literally amaranthed all over the house
The ending of the words is ALMSIVI
Moments I would love for this to play(especially the ending music)
1. Entering the Cave of the Incarnate, when all the Failed Incarnates start singing as Azura gives you Moon and Star
2. You exit Red Mountain after defeating Dagoth Ur, as the Ghostfence is deactivated
I think the second option is great. I just beat Morrowind tonight. Coming out of Red Mountain after killing Dagoth Ur and seeing the skies bright and blue was touching. I had the sudden idea to play this, so I put it on in the background while I used my last Icarian Flight scroll to jump back down to Ghostgate. It was very pleasant and climactic and I had a smile on my face the whole time. This is definitely an "end credits" kinda song.
