Everyone says "This is better, or Malukah is better" can we for 5 seconds ignore that and just appriciate that the gaming community of skyrim which we all loved actually made it into one of swedens biggest tv channels? This is after all a huge step in excluding gamers as "nerds who doesn't know better". Please, just appriciate their effort, and stop hating.PS: I used to be a hater too, but then I took an arrow in the knee...
Fredrik Petersson I agree, I was very excited when I heard that a choir in Sweden was singing this song. In both videos I have seen, (including this one) the singers have performed extraordinarily.
Not just for nerds and gamers but the mainstream would never let us find joy and appreciation in European folk music even though it stirs our very souls, a beatific masterwork snuck through the censors via vidya
It's not that hard, you literally just have to memorize the sounds. I can easily sing the first half of the song, but i haven't got a clue what it means.
there is a transaltion for the song ... because Bethesda made an alphabet that also translates the words and letters of Dovah they made a imaginary language same as the Klinggon of Star Trek
Before this performance, I think they gave credit to video games for introducing classical music to a new generation. I don't remenber the exact details but it was something along those lines. It's pretty cool that video games are getting more and more recognition, at least in Sweden, But I can't speak for the rest of the world.
Man, Sweden gets to hear epic shit like this at their awards ceremony. Meanwhile in the US there is another shitty performance by Miley Cyrus, Lady GaGa or Little Wayne. The US music scene is so pathetic.

Usage of vulgar or abusive words too often or in general doesn't mean that a person is convincing, really not. About _"Mr. Jeremy Soule, the great!"_ for example, to be more classy and respectful?
+Kevin DC I hope there is an Elder Scrolls 6 but I won't get my hopes up since they made Elder Scrolls Online. From past experience that usually means end of the single player games. :(
I totally disagree with you, Do you know any other game composers ? is it just because you loved this one by Jeremy you declared him as God? I know Game composers Since Commodore64 which i believe you werent even born at that time. Jeremy is great but there are better than Jeremy one of them is Paul Anthony Romero. Listen to his music and educate your ear with other better talents.
Ahab Bellamy hey at least in my case you're right I don't know many other composers. But I do know, that even if you compare Jeremy Soule with other big names in this business, he will still be a very talented and succesful composer. Nevertheless I appreciate your calling of Romero and I hope that you can name many other composers, so I can make another step in the direction of perfect music !
Magnificent performance. Not only for the music, when she sings she really is telling a story at that is really difficult. You can sing well or bad but not so many people can give soul to a song like this.
Yeah my friend, that is absolute true!! I was like Diablo before Skyrim but when i start to play Skyrim.... Love on first sight. I played Morowind, Oblivion... but Skyrim is best even on low graphic settings (because i have ccrappy PC) and again i can enjoy this game.
To be honest i would say that Witcher 3 is the best game, but Skyrim is better at different things that W3. It all comes down to personal preference, but both games are epic :).
I love Skyrim, but after playing and finishing it three times, I'd thought I was over playing it again without a long break... until listening to this beautiful music.
I dont know why everyone is butchering this version. Its incredible. How often you see this type of song in a famous show in the respective country. No i thought so. Sweden never stop to amaze. WOOOOOOW
sassydragon it makes sense too skyrim is inspired by a viking way of life. no not horned helmets. in that part of the world were vikings lived up in sweden scandanavia and such they had jarls
saw this scrolling through vids thinking there probably not talking about the elder scrolls, but fuck it lets see what dragonborn there thinking of... then i heard the chanting and i was like ( ͡o ͜ʖ ͡o)
TheGadondorf I will find you....and I will put an arrow in your posterior. How does that make you feel? Seriously now... that meme *NEEDS* to stop spreading.
I always wondered if Skyrim represents Tamriels version of the nordics/Scandinavia? The story about the empire and the "rebels" is pretty much the story of when Christian people came to Sweden and took our religion away from us just like in Skyrim.
So here are all these serious people delivering a beautiful performance.. While a crazy lady doing a crazy Voodoo dance with her hands and hair in the middle goes unnoticed by anyone!
seriously for "the dragonborn comes" why is that way of singing it so popular? Why can't people sing it like its supposed to b sung and not Malukah's version, and I know it is good but c'mon!
the conductor looks like he's trying to cast a fire spell
Best comment ever

haha this made me laugh! xD ( but i think its a girl, too much curves to be a guy)

The most intelligent comment I've EVER read
I prefer being a "Nord who doesn't know better"😁
Did they learn to sing fucking dragon?! Absolute legends.
I doubt they know what they were saying.
We were born with it ... dragonborned ...

@Felype Rennan - Not _"great"_, but _"The Great"_.
Is that conductor a Thalmor?!
lol
fkin racist lmao
The singer is.
As a Swede, it is a very bizarre feeling to hear someone sing a phony nordic language WITH A CLEAR SWEDISH ACCENT.
While also singing the English parts with no accent at all. She sings in English more clearly than most English speakers
It's not a Nordic language. It's the language of the dragons.
It's the language of dragons still made up though

Agreed
i second that

+Kevin DC Are you kidding me, bad cover, not much power
This is an incredible performance of Dragonborn. The fans of Elder Scrolls thank you.
Jeremy Soule is now confirmed a God amongst game composers.
Agree, together with Hans Zimmer...
Ruben De Jong oh well you're right but I think he made the soundtrack to Call of Duty Black Ops didn't he? Nevertheless ,he's doing a great job

Undoubtly Skyrim is is the best game ever ... the hair of all my skin stands up every time i listen to this song ¡¡¡
I'd always leave the game on the main menu for hrs while doing other stuff like homework or reading or something

And so Sweden adopted the Dragonborn theme as their national anthem. Denmark is quite jealous.
0:09 wah ahhh ahhh ahhhh hahahahaha. cannot hold myself from bursting into laughing. love skyrim soundtrack, btw.
how many of those guys gave the look of "you have got to be kidding me" when they were told they were doing a song from a video game
The dragon born coming is nothing to smile about lady! Best believe he'll slay your whole village if he/she gets bored
I love Skyrim, but after playing and finishing it three times, I'd thought I was over playing it again without a long break... until listening to this beautiful music.
Malukah version and chorus GREAT :D
georgemitchel23 agree
georgemitchel23 YES!!! omg that would be amazing!
georgemitchel23 She went to my highschool.
monterrey?
georgemitchel23 She would be better for sure. The womans voice in the video is not good at all in my opinion !
God.. It's beautiful, what an amazing voice ...
goddamnit i cant stop laughing when the background poeple cant do the the deep voice but instead sound like a bad villian rha huahuahuahua
wtf XD
There are two different versions just so you know, the one in the trailers and the one in the soundtrack which is this one.
***** If its the right one, how can it be the wrong one?
well they did a fantastic job, don't nit pick XD
It reminded me of the chant from finding nemo xD "Shark bait huahua"
Red is the best omg I lol'd
Skyrim is best RPG game EVER. Gameplay, MUSIC, story, character..... name it! I finish main quest for about 1 year and still play side quests.
Pfft, noob. Only 6 times. I've completed every side storyline and the story at least 20 times.
then u have plenty of time
Igor Malusevic The good ol' days when I actually had time to play video games...ah, I miss it.
same as me, I was play sometimes 14-16 hours now 1 hour max
witcher 3 disagree with u
The Effort these people went through and the result is Just AMAZING And AWSOME
That's it I'm moving to Sweden
How so?
I heard it was the happiest place on earth?
Thought that was Denmark?
Sounds like my kinda place
It's the country in europe with the highest rape rate per capita but you're welcome. Free immigration btw!
By the 9 Divine... If it wasnt for reddit I wouldnt have seen this... Ever.
I don't think it's "rah rah rahahaha"
It sounds like they're laughing at something xDD
laughing at alduin
My thoughts exactly. It had its cool moments and could have been epic with a properly instucted choir. This way it was a bit cringy...
When I read the comment they started singing and I laughed really loud...
omfg laughed out loud on this one hahahahahahhahaha
Skyrim!!!! Proud citizen of sweden ;)

wow, I'm so happy to see that. Music is just art : pop, movies, games what ever... Jeremy Soul deserve a lot more respect for hes masterpieces.
+XxKidnoffxX I totally agree
such a beautiful and spell binding song. this is without doubt one of my fav theme songs ever. love skyrim.
I remember when I was on choir... such nostalgia. this is beautiful.
It's amazing that the Malukah's arrangement is so powerful that is used in a lot of versions of the music.
THIS IS NOT DRAGONBORN! ITS THE DRAGONBORN COMES!!!!!!!!
This "ra ra rahahaha" ruined it.
Its like there laughing :D
I dont know why everyone is butchering this version. Its incredible. How often you see this type of song in a famous show in the respective country. No i thought so. Sweden never stop to amaze. WOOOOOOW

can Sweden get any better, I wonder

Bethesda should start making their own albums B)
You know you made it, when they play a song you wrote on Swedish Grammy awards.
legoman1990 especially when it is in Dragon language.
you called for me ? the dragonborn is here
Your name is tarek; not Dragonborn.
nope ! that's the alias they gave me after absorbing the dragon soul at whiterun ;)
the chorus gave me goosebumps.....awesome job guys
saw this scrolling through vids thinking there probably not talking about the elder scrolls, but fuck it lets see what dragonborn there thinking of... then i heard the chanting and i was like ( ͡o ͜ʖ ͡o)

11/11/2011 day one os skyrim. I remember i had listen the main music watching the title screen for 30 minutes before play
This is the Dragonborn comes not Dragonborn they are two different songs
This is kind of a fusion of the two.
I always wondered if Skyrim represents Tamriels version of the nordics/Scandinavia?
The story about the empire and the "rebels" is pretty much the story of when Christian people came to Sweden and took our religion away from us just like in Skyrim.
It does represent that
Well the dragon tongue is based off of Norwegian
U wot m9 u wnt 2 git rekt??? And Swedish. The languages are very similiar.
And then we have Sven
I'm an Orc but I live and die in skyrim !!!
The true art of music
if this song was nominated for an emmy, this planet probably still has a chance
Hur fan kunde jag missa detta?! De tvingar en att kolla på ettan hela tiden, annars missar man detta :(
This is not Dovahkiin, this is a mash-up between Dovahkiin and The Dragonborn Comes.
yeah but its still good tho
And?
THIS LADY IS A TRUE NORD!!
loved it thanks dude😀😀
The conductor looks like Hillary Clinton to me.. but then that side profile with glasses reminds me of Sarah Palin.. I am confused

Why do you have to make my question awkward?

HOLY SHIT. Thank you, Tumblr.
Wahahahhahaahahhahah, HAAA hahahhah
the only song that gives me pure joy.
im getting chills all over my body man
This is a main menu song replacer for sure!
I'm sure there's a mod for that
This is good but Maluka's version is still the best in my opinion. Simple, Clean and neat :)
Thank god for video games and some movies / anime keeping great orchestras like this relevant and making amazing music!
I love this so much!!!
This singer does it well, but it is nothing compared to Malukah, who is, I think, the first who made this lyrics and sung it.
No, she did not write the lyrics. They are from the game.
I used to a singer like you then i took an arrow in my knee
This makes me love Skyrim even more, which I didn't think was possible as this point.

1.30-2.16, those secs are from another planet...

seriously for "the dragonborn comes" why is that way of singing it so popular? Why can't people sing it like its supposed to b sung and not Malukah's version, and I know it is good but c'mon!
Because it's a great arrangement. It also wasn't all of it. It was also only a tiny part of the entire performance.
***** I know but its.. "too famous"
Mcgoo500 You mean the extremely slowly way of singing? I don't know. I practiced it today, it was 53 seconds.
Widdekuu91 no you sing the song then the chorus of the "dragonborn" song
uhh u need to hear The Dragonborn Comes in KARLIENE VERSION! 1 word for it........... OMFG EPIC
OMG THE ORCHESTRA WITH THIS WARRIORS VOICES
So beautiful.
Какой же у нее крутой голос!
She sounds like russian when she sings in dragon language. Malukah Fenix is best for this song!
im getting goosebumps when i'm watching this
this alone made me want to play skyrim again
TJA JONTE!!
Tjena
ArmTheBeaver lol
Not keen on the change of pace in this version, and the forced laugh by the choir (didn't seem to be a laugh in the original to me).
this song is so perfect
I cry everytime I see this
