Wow, what an experience that whould have been to be there. The location is incredible. The acoustics must have been amazing. Standing ovation from me. Bravo. Bravo....
I'd just about cleave someone in twain to record there! ;-)
good thing i was not there .....i would have bloody eagle that dude in blue !!!!!
Couldn't put it anybody, 100% in agreement with you, there's something truly magnificent about caves too, transcends all time, just wish all the audience were dressed up in robes too 😊 Spectacular!
Lpl
J Meyer - I keep thinking the same thing. Even through an amateur capture, you can hear the acoustics rolling around the rocks. When the drums stop before the final recitation, it really takes awhile for the echoes to settle.
Makes me homesick for a place I’ve never been
me too
We are there in spirit
Ton esprit le connait, il s'en rappel❤
I 've never been there but when I saw it first I felt a spiritual connection with those people, place and environment; a strange feeling like I've been there in my dreams or dèja vue.
This Home ist in our Heart...
Imagine hiking nearby and you hear this
Best. Hike. Ever.
I've done that here, tough the Island is Small so wont take too long, but its very beautiful
If the human soul and mother earth could sing together, it would sound like this
5 years ago this woke something very ancestral and ancient inside of me and I’ve never been the same since . Five years later it still stirs my soul .
Exactly the same with me I listen sometimes and it breaks me I’m not afraid to admit I cry my eyes out I have no idea why but like you it’s like it’s part of me that’s been missing, hard to explain to be honest , maybe it’s from my mothers side she said our ancestors were Norse her maiden name is THORnton so maybe .
Because the sounds in music speaks directly to your heart and soul.
🥰🎶❤️
Heart does not need to understand the Norwegian words, heart understands anyway. 🎶🥰🎶
@@KarinGullhav this is so very true . I do wish I could make Norway my home tho . Watching videos of it , it looks exactly like my ideal afterlife.
I have no Nordic ancestry that I’m aware of, but for some reason I’m so drawn this music. It’s so hauntingly beautiful. And there’s something powerful about it that I can’t describe.
This goes beyond your ancestry,whether your Nordic,British,Native American or whatever,it goes right down into your DNA,it fuels that part that the modern world causes us to forget,that part that connects us all,it's part of all of us,it's the connection to our ancestors
the haunting power comes from our folk music often being in the minor key instead of the major. gives it a sad vibe.
@@andruid5054 Well said my friend.
When you die in a battle, you will go to Valhalla.
Same I'm black and I feel so connected to it
I can feel my beard grow as I listen to this.
Mostly Accurate Reviews did you copy that from the other video of this song?
@@stevefox260 this comment has become a tradition at this point, lol, it's in every nordic metal/ folk video...
@@stevefox260 she was just trying to be funny. Give her a break.
Me too, but I'm a woman so it's becoming quite troublesome😂😂😂
Just shaved off my beard, gonna cry
Aurora's voice has truly been blessed by Freyja. So hauntingly beautiful
I want this as my funeral song. A lost soul from Australia!!
It is a funeral song. I would also like this song as it examplifies my believes. Live a good life and live forever.
Imagine being on a hike a mile away from that mountain and hearing this.
I would be terrified
I wonder how many in that audience stumbled upon it the same way and stayed.
I would think it was the Æsir chanting.
I would go towards the sound and say let me join you to raid England.
I would be intrigued and follow the sound.
Why would you be terrified? This is not terrifying at all, quite the contrary actually.
How incredibly lucky these people are to witness such an amazing performance in such a beautiful place. I'm sure that mountain made the music even more spectacular. Chills everywhere.
I was thinking the exact same thing!!!
And some have the nerve to talk through it :(
It sure was an amazing consert!! I was there and by odin it was worth it.
Must be in one of the fjords in norway beautyfull
hey you also commented one of the heilung videos
Spirit of our ancestors crying out for their people to remember who they are. Love this
Hedra dem
❤
Wardruna deserves 100% of your attention. Put that cameras byside and enjoy ffs😮💨
2020 and we need music like this more than ever.
This song was written in 2013
Logan no shit you don’t say. More accurate it’s about what matters is the action of the man in life.
All ends are beginnings
Totally agree its beautiful x
Too true
Nothing brings tears to my eyes faster than old world stuff like this and Heilung. It's like my spirit hears it way more than my ears.
Not just the people, but also the spirits of the land and the waters must have so enjoyed this. We should all sing to the lands, the skies, the waters the Goddess and the Gods at every opportunity.
This is evidence that music is a spiritual thing.
I want this during my funneral
Vytautas Mikuciauskas me too 💜
Einar said this is a song to sing when someone dies when I saw him. So you've got it on the mark.
@@sos-pl8pf also the song itselfe is about afterlife
Vytautas Mikuciauskas me too!
I want this too!
Even if it isn't my culture, I can almost feel my ancesters calling.
Me too...❤
I did a DNA test last year, 74% British and Irish, 24% eastern European, and around 2% from the kinds of places this comes from, it's only a little bit but I've always felt it's there when I hear this kind of thing.
Am I the only one seeing the rocks behind Aurora move?? This girl was earth bending
Oh my god you're right?? 😮
timestamp?
Did you see those faces in the rocks?
If you watch the guy talking in the front you'll see thst he's actually crying and is so happy that he can't help tell the person next to him.
It's not just about the artists,its about the audience too
I just went and looked at that part. It is so touching and I can totally identify with his emotions.
Thank you for pointing this out.I thought he was being rude but this is a funeral song and probably hit home to both of them
But ppl keep talking throughout after that point. Wish it could be edited out...
Which min?
@@ellex8597 2:13 you can see girl in the sweater taking pictures wipes her eyes. 2:39 Guy in blue shirt talks to her. 2:59 he wipes his eye. 3:03 guy gives thumbs up, lol. 3:07 guy in blue shirt has glasses off and is now wiping both eyes. (I've watched this quite a bit. lol)
This is honestly the most beautiful song I've ever heard and I don't understand a single word.
English is kinda clumsy compared to this.
Turn on the subtitles
Hahaha, just think of all your ancerstors. The ones long long ago, who had to fight and died fighting since the begining of mankind. Bless them. That's it. :))))
Yep!
subtitles
really... who wake up one morning and say "you know what, lets put together the most ancient like voice (einar) with the most fairy like voice (Aurora) and make them sing with another ancients souls.... and you know what, make it in a fking cave".... because the person that bring this idea must be an ancient god in disguise
Aye, the God of poetry and music; BRAGI
So beautiful! I can't believe some random guy decided that talking during this performance that you really can't find anywhere else would half ruin everything.
Aurora never fails to make me feel wonderful about earth’s natural creations
Wardruna with Aurora performing together? I'm ready to pass away now, that's hard to believe that I will ever hear anything more beautiful xd
Yes you will.
That’s what I thought. Aurora in a Viking song!?
I loved the original version..butthis...omg...🥰🖤🤘
Now this is what I call old time religion and its good enough for me
2023 and i still l come back to this song. Still as beautiful and powerful as ever. and very much needed at this time.
That is because the sounds in music speaks directly to your heart and soul.
🥰🎶❤️
Heart does not need to understand the Norwegian words, heart understands anyway. 🎶🥰🎶 Thank you 🎯👍
Imagine hiking nearby unaware of this concert, feeling like you suddenly have an epic hiking soundtrack coming from the earth...
Would be outstanding unreal experience. And - this is very far from the mainland in Norway, 33 nautical miles west of Sandnessjøen in the North of Norway. goo.gl/maps/Zx4r65x6TJWZMT3S7
People should be respectful and shut up at a performance like this. It’s not a time to socialize. Listen with your heart and feel the spirts.
kevin Jhonson tjoa Kevin.... some people try to hold their tears maybe and seek social activites in order to do do so.
Chill brother, u taking in to seriously. 🙏
kurotadoriandroid people that blab at a live performance like this bug the hell out of me. People have zero respect for other people. You can talk all you want the rest of the time it’s not hard to shut up for 5-10min.
@@kevinjhonson5925 U can't judge on them, because it's only your perspective,so as mine . Peace then 🙏
@@kevinjhonson5925 Actully some International artists have complained about this in Norway. And I have to agree with you. Its disrespectful to both the artist and the other people who want to hear the music. Especialy when sometimes people pay a lot of money to see an artist. Some talk is one thing, its even worse when people are drunk and paying zero attention to the artist and step on and bump into other people who paid to be there.
This music is sacred and should be shared to all in this world.
I cant believe those rude people in the front having a conversation during the performance. Maybe they should have stayed home to have their important discussion. Wardruna, Aurora and Oslo Fagottkor was powerful.
I agree. Astonishing self centredness.
It's just a conversation. Lol. Reminds me on the other week when a guy talked to me about how great the current singer was, in a pub, and a woman interrupted him saying he should be quiet and not disrespectful. He was perplexed. An hour later, he went on stage as the main gig. Always good not to be so judgmental.
@@njux1871 It is ALWAYS better to be considerate of others. People come to hear the entertainer and at times pay money to hear them not the spectators, You can always discuss your very important thoughts later after the show.
If I was there, I'd cry like a little baby.
I would cry like a man
I would just, cry
Maybe you are a Baby....
I'm already crying now
@@kagan_akbdk Keşke herkes bilse ..
I want this in 4k, 90 minutes in concert, multiple cams, best audio recording that is possible. Take my money.
This.is.the.best.version.ever.period
❤️‼️
Definitely homesick for somewhere I've never been. I wish I even had a home to be homesick for. This made me cry. I've failed my family. I needed this to remind me I can, and have to, do better if I ever want to be able to go home in the end.
You ever hear a song, and it awakens a memory from lifetimes past? This song does that for me every single time.
Yes, and I have one more. Peace to NordiKa...
Its JS Bachs Equal Temperament like all modern western music and not ancient Micro Tonality...but yeah, I get what you mean

Yeah same hear... amazing . experience...this goes deep
Today marks the 40th day after the death of my sister from ovarian cancer. Our parents were born in Finland and immigrated here to America, where my sister and I were born. I've read that among the ancient Finns there was a belief that the spirit of the departed wandered the earth for around 6 weeks or 40 days before journeying across the icy black river to Tuonela (or Manala), the land of the dead. I did a ceremony out in my yard tonight to help my sister to make that journey. This song was playing in my mind as I did this.
May your sister rest in power, I believe her journey was safe and she is happy and at peace. The legacy of your parents and ancestors lives on through both of you 🙏🏼
Did I tell you brother that your sister was never lost to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. There are many things you will learn shalom your sister has been safe for a while now. She has no pain no suffering.
Stunning! Goosebumps! But the disrespect of the guy at 2:40 just shouting loudly, in the first row?! Shut up, dude!
Auroras voice is... like if all the stars in the skys created sound we could hear.
And Einar.. he's a God in own right
God's. Yes
No instrument will ever surpass the beauty produced by human vocal chords.
Nobody:
Me at 4AM: I’m a viking now.
Suddenly i have beard
Where is my battle Axe?
welcome, its a state of mind. Oh and job if you dont mind rape and pillaging :P
I became a Viking this morning at 2am on a full moon. My hair became platted, my Norse ship has been ordered online, 3.52am off to the bathroom to shave my beard off so I can go ravage the husband who is sound asleep. Vikings forever!
It is exactly 4 am here as WELL. SKÅL.
I get goosebumps every time I hear this
Me too ❤
I can't be the only one who cries at this performance every time I see it
A cry from ancient spirits begging today's generation to remember who they are
Wow what a powerful comment , i couldn't agree more weve lost our way and our faith
And we are here and believe in them, we just need education about em
@Josef Caballero del Castillo XVIII What are you talking about, Europe was once Tribal Confederacies. The vikings has never been Tribal Confederacies with Europe.
There was Europe and there was Scandinavia. Later we was forced to be Christians but we have never forgotten our heritage or our ancestors
I am living it ❣️
Refugee welcome!
I'm as Indian as I can get, but man, Nordic music just sends vibration through me. All hail Ragnar
@Jesus Christ stop killing animals and just stop this
@Jesus Christ are you seriously telling me to respect people's food habits while telling me to not eat my food habits wtf. Also you're dead shut the hell up.
@Jesus Christ it's also a thing called keep your nose in your own country.
@Jesus Christ You are nothing more than a mere jew heretic.
I am truly confounded by the comments below especially considering the beauty of the piece above. We have lost our way
Idk what I'm hearing idk how I even got on this channel but this is Making my heart feel like I'm home it's so weird sorry if it sounds weird pls don't come for me I'm not myself understanding this
Sounds off our ancestors calling us to remember who we are ❤
No matter how beautiful the music is, there's always some people who will talk through it. :(
They are just rude and disrespectful.
@Mark O no, its fucking disrespectful
This is a once in the lifetime performance marred by talking idiots..
I literally mean mugged my computer in disgust. When they had the audacity to speak during this performance.
Before spectacle: "It's a solemn song, we shall all wear black"
Aurora: "Yes, white"
Black is the mixture of all colors, white is the absence of color.
That would totally be like her to say that haha
@@pinesmotion-picturespresen7131 actually white is a mixture of all colors, black is the absence of color. The other colors are broken out of the white light. Black is the absence of light.
And she isn't wearing white its fure
@@pinesmotion-picturespresen7131 this is only true of pigments, not light
Never have i ever heard such perfection. Greetings from Finland.
I'm trying to find out who the blonde girl is I love her voice

I would love to witness a performance exactly like this. With the mountain too. Seems like it would transport you to another time and place.
Except it doesn't transport you any where. Choose reality over daydreaming.
@@evangelicalsnever-lie9792 troll
They knocked at the door of valhalla with there amazing voices🥺
I have listen to this song many times but this version really brought me into deep thought. How we lived as humans in ancient times and how we live now. So much more connected then. Thoughts reinforced with instinctual urges to go back. Walking the planet with other animals, gathering, hunting and raising families. We had intelligent advantages over animals thousands of years ago but sometimes I ponder that we have evolved too far and lost the true meaning to being human.
More human than human anymore
Then, there was dragons!
id say that we have kost what it means to live. to be human sounds like we are a so special being in this world but we arent. if you think about it in the cor we are nothing more than animals. but somehow because of our intelligence we really want to be special and in that we created a fucked up human society in which living means to always try to fulfill the wishes ideals of that so called society in which creation we long since had no play in. so we from scholl to death we work our asses of for nothing. cause in the end we all just want something to eat a family and a place to stay. but now we have states and religions and races and whatever funky reason we can think of to differentiate us from others and than probably hate them for being different. damn i should stop writing comments when im depressed.
@Deathcoldan if you read my comment youd see that i compare humans to animals and in a biological sense ther are no different human races.
And did you really just put family and states on the same level ? I mean i dont know your family but the concept of the nation has absolutly nothing in common with my understanding of a family. Theres a difference between a nation and a tribe .
@Deathcoldan oh goddess's titties. On a scientific level it doesn't exist. People adapted to their environments and it doesn't make one group superior or inferior.
Also the phrase cultural Marxism is so cliche. Please be more creative.
Makes me feel like I'm on a boat with my brothers and sisters, a group of vikings fighting against the storm. Rowing for our lives.
The distant sound of thunder.
If i was hiking on the other side of that hill and heard that, i'd think something glitched and i can now hear the soundtrack/score of my own movie and im about to die
I laughed entirely too hard at this comment because I know it to be true.
Ok if this will not play on my funeral I will not come
this is an ancient Norse song of "singing" those who die over to the other side ( Hel, which was positive, not the Christian Hell and its place for the damned)........Helvegen is the road to Hel .......the song reminds us everything dies and that even after dying, one's reputation and life should be honored and remembered......the male singer is Einar Selvik of Wardruna.........
I feel like a real Aurora concert should always be outdoors amongst nature now that I've seen HAIK, her Fader documentary, and the NatGeo Earth Day performance.
My grandfather always held steadfast to his Norwegian roots and made sure to tell me my family’s history, as such, I’ve always been proud of where I come from. He died this morning, so I played this to send him off in a way I know he’d appreciate and love.
Condolences, brother. I'm sure your father, and all your ancestors, loved it.
Sorry for your loss friend
Our deepest condolences
His voice is the voice of the gods. Whatever it is called, Odin, Zeus, Yahweh, Jupiter, Brahma ... a man has a frightening voice. The singer takes me to the past, almost to see those ancient battles of gods and people. Souls drowned in the sea of blood. They sing in such a way about something that most superficial people do not see, do not see and feel. People do not feel nature today. That is why such songs have a larger dimension.
That's Einar Selvik for you.
Voices are amazing. Wish people would just sit still and listen !! Just closed my eyes and let the song wash over me, peaceful and calming x well done
Greatest performance in History. Relate the moment: the beauty and virginity of Nature, the greatness and technology of Humanity and Its sensitive attitude towards Nature! I think the Mona Lisa smiled precisely when she listened to Helvegen)) I hope the relationship between Humanity and Nature will be in a similar context. Respect from Russian Volga.
Amazing acoustics. Man wastes millions to emulate what nature provides and man still cannot even come close.
They had microphones and speakers
One of the most difficult types of places to keep time in. If the group hasn't rehearsed enough you can get really off time. They obviously did rehearse well, and you can still hear them having a hard time keeping the tone perfectly together while so far apart from each other. Amazing performers!
@Shaun Watson bit toxic mate. I see no need to call the guy/girl an idiot? Havin a bad day or somethin?
@@TheWolverineFTW omg so toxic for calling someone an idiot who made a moronic statement
mogyesz9 omg so moronic to be such a toxic tard on a youtube comment der der they are using microphones to help them record and project for the fucking cameras; tech doesn’t pick up the nuances your ears can; moron.
Aurora and Linda suits Wardruna very, very well. The nordic high-pitch female singing is extraordinarily beautiful. Mesmerizing.
Beautiful honor to Viking god Odin
With love from all atheists in Norway
A Norge friend asked me if I understood this song. Not a word, said I. He showed me the text and I said I know this and this and that word. He showed me English is at heart a Nordic language.
Well, it’s isn’t
This to be the soundtrack to my funeral
There is definitely something spiritual here and there are no words to express. And if there is an Odin or a Freya, they live in songs like that.
FYI the gods are real.
Adauto Pereira da Silva yes, its about walking through hell, thogether with the norrøn gods. Its means: to walk through hell with a good reputation will leave your body dead but your soul is still walking with the gods of ildrasyll (the world of the norrøn (nature) gods and godess) its really magical.... yes i am norwegian and yes my english is crappy
May I cross the void with this song in my mind . Break all the binds that hold you.
That words about our death is so true, you now free from all that binds you. Beautiful. We are all vikings.
I want this played at my funeral
The old gods aren’t dead.
They’re training their warriors.
That fucking horn hits me right in the central nervous system.
Shivers everytime. I wish i could experience a performance like that once in my life.
Song, angelic voice by aurora, the other deep and pure vocals, the drums, acoustic and that location
Like it's literally perfection
Слушая эти чистые, проникновенные и глубокие голоса на фоне многовековых скал, видевших историю человечества с самой первой её зари, словно
возвращаешься туда, где зародилось начало всех начал!!! Группа Вардруна - одна из тех групп, которая способна окунуть в атмосферу, ушедшую в древнее и таинственное прошлое. Она одна из моих любимейших групп!!! Спасибо за талант и профессионализм!!!
Слава Україні
Some music you can just feel in your heart.
And then some!
The vikings are calling for you.
UA-cam apparently decided I needed this, it was right.
Im Scottish, not Norwegian, but I feel this in my soul.
That is because the sounds in music speaks directly to your heart and soul.
🥰🎶❤️
Heart does not need to understand the Norwegian words, heart understands anyway. 🎶🥰🎶 Thank you 🎯👍
Ive listened to this song several times. I hope when Odin has read the last word of my life that im fortunate to hear this as my mortal life leaves.
I don't get this audience... They're just like chilling, taking some pictures and stuff... I would be absolutely captivated and probably in tears listening to this
they act like normal audience to me.
Same here brother!!
Its hard to do anything with such an amazing performance that leaves you with chills.
@@melon7816 yeah, but why, how? Listening to this is the most mystical thing that happened to me and it's over copper wired earphones
We're Nordics, we don't act up in the presence of grace. We sit still and let it touch our souls, like the cold hills and ice we sprung from.
I struggle with depression. This song gives me strength every time I listen to it. Gives me the will to live. I love how our culture is coming back after 1,100 years of Christian oppression. Let’s break our chains
And it is spreading internationally. I've seen a lot of Pagan folk songs that number in the millions of views. :)
Stay strong Connor! You and this music will keep carrying on.
We already are
You got this Connor. One day at a time.
Nothanks
Back to our roots.
her voice just lingers.. she's fr just like a siren
“I know it all Odin, where u hide your eye” I felt something inside my chest, love this part
Aurora sing definitely the best performance of helvegen
Do u agree?
Sascha Lopez agreed. Her singing gave me goosebumps
Absolutely!! sends chills through me...in a good way!
I say turn her mic up!
Shes a goddess
i absolutely disagree, the other performers outperformed her by levels.
aurora's voice is so angelic
I'm an American but I'm Scot Irish Welch Norwegian this music hits me deeply too my marrow
We have basically the same background. Perhaps brothers in another life.
I'm Latino American,I have no norwegian ancestors that I'm aware of but man you have no idea how actually drawn I am to this language,music and culture in general,like,you look/hear them and it feels like they are from another world far away from our grasp or even understatement,and AURORA,her voice is just angelic!
Einar Selvik and Aurora singing together is a magic, if there ever was.
Hail Odin, hail Freya, hail to all the gods that were present on that day! I wish to be there one day ! :)
This is absolutely beautiful. A moment of history shared.
How can you not just sit in stunned silence as tears stream down your face? This would probably be as close as I could get to a spiritual experience. Many layers of goosebumps.
I'm atheist but whenever I listen to these kind of music I feel a very strong connection to Odin. Damn, whish I could've lived in that time back then...
@@PVT_White whether your athiest or not,this goes right into our DNA,this connects the wild part of us that modern society has taught us to keep deep down,but music like this draws it back out,nothing to do with Gods,this connects you to your ancestors and a time when the world was a darker more dangerous place
@@andruid5054 Well said. I hope my ancestors were Norsemen. I live in Austria right now btw
@@PVT_White I live in the UK and we bought DNA kits that tell you where your from,my wife is 85% Scandinavian and the rest a mixture of Northern European, whereas I end up bloody French lol,but I have 48% Scandinavian,I'll take that lol,I was probably part of the Vikings that settled in France
@@andruid5054 Isn't that expensive?
This song has made me cry, what a beautiful masterpiece
Same, I've never heard of them until today. I consider myself blessed ❤️
Me to fuck
It just started thundering outside my window, making this song more incredible
It’s beautiful hearing your voices. This is the song that played as I watched my Grandfathers body lowered into the earth. A song to honor warriors, honored a true warrior that dark day
I feel like these are my ancestors calling out to me... it is so comforting.
They are
Wardruna and AURORA? I think my head just exploded. Praying you guys are playing some kind of show next year when I'm in Norway for the first time.
Jordanna Rowan yeap. I agree!!
A woman listening to this kind of music? I think my heart just exploded, why can't i find someone like you in real life
It's tricky for sure! I've never met anyone in real life who knows about Wardruna OR Aurora. Ugh.
Jordanna Rowan Me too..
Jordanna Rowan hahhahahaha
Season 2, Ragnar in his prime. The whole Kattegat is waiting on their ships for Ragnar to get out of his great hall and head to England. He kisses his children and Aslaug, and this song begins as he gets out of the hall and starts walking to those ships with all the swag in the world. Absolutely epic and I just can't get over it.
Absolutely the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Touches the soul like no other.
So happy that my amateur video gave you a good soul experience. ❤️ Thank you 🥰

Thank you really thank you 💕💕💕
I was able to follow everything except the 6th and 5th lines from the end, after the instruments have stopped. I think the male singer is singing something else here, improvising from the original maybe. There is a lot of emotion that really comes through when you follow the meaning... Moved me to tears. Thank you!
Warrior&Weirdo 😢 so beautiful.
The story is one of singing the dead along an arduous path to some sort of a continuation, separation from the living, and freeing from constraints of the living. It's one last thing one could possibly do for someone who has died. It's easy to dismiss as just a story for those who didn't grow up with it and emotionally invest in this particular one, but it's a model for working through grief. Though there probably is no Odin, this isn't stupid, and behind it lies a greater truth about sympathy toward the common experience, the same now as it was more than 1000 years ago.
Takk😁
