    You know a band is great when they sound exactly like their studio recording.

      Yes dude is like the glue for me, he is killing it on the drums, I also like the little lady on trumpet, her lungs are not the strongest but she is there, she seems to physically struggle at times, but she was very young then, as were they all.

    You can sense a different kind of culture in them that is void of the corruption known to us Americans, and a group of people that seem to express the innocence of youth, not scared to go into the realms of fantasy and imagination and true emotion. THIS is refreshing.

      These songs and are song that show imagination and feelings. They take care you back to a almost child like feeling. The let you have peace while knowing that there are still troubles in the world. Not all but some artist should keep this in mind while creating songs. Long live monsters and men!

    They had a concert here in the Philippines a couple of days ago and they performed this song. You could tell that they extremely miss their home. It was so heartfelt that I almost wept. It was pure magic though, the sadness, the longing.

    I just discovered the band a few months ago (even when I listened/saw them in Walter Mitty, FIFA and Game of Thrones years back) and I've been listening their first recording and live performances from that time. From all I've found so far, this video is my favourite thing of the band. I feel such joy when I listen this particular performance. I love how Nanna moves with her guitar, how Raggi sings along in silence at 3:17 and Brynjar singing with such energy from 4:27 to the end, he seems very happy.

  • @TheAsshatt
    @TheAsshatt 11 років тому

    downloaded the album the other day (yes legally), and swapped out the studio version of the song for this one, because of the missing verse and all. I then promptly blew out the speakers in my car due to the volume difference between this track and the others.......Worth it :)

  • @sh00kspeared73
    @sh00kspeared73 4 роки тому +2

    The most beautiful thing is when the artist can't resist the feeling of his own music, even a person who can't understand absolutely nothing of what they're singing can feel it too. That's the magic of music
