Actually, what Ghengis Khan did was more complex than that. When his campaign reached your village they would ask you to join them or be razed to the ground. The price was to provide x amount of supplies on a regular basis and x number of men seasonally. In exchange they would be allowed to govern themselves and enjoy trade from everyone connected to the growing Mongol empire. The Mongols tended not to overdraw resources...they didn't need to with so many joining them. From major civilizations gifted people were allowed to serve as Ghengis Kahn's advisers, ensuring the voice of those people would have Kahn's ear. Most opted to join them since this was actually a better deal than they were getting from their local lords. This was the same tactic he used to unit the Mongols. It would be more accurate to say he united the known world...since the ones he fought he fought to annihilate only. He never fought to subjugate (i.e. conquer). Unfortunately, without his keen leadership, such a broad empire could not survive his death and immediately bagan to decline after Ghengis Kahn, merely a mortal man, died.
@@mikeshramko8331 Fabulous mini history lesson! Yes, he wiped out entire villages that did not join his confederation, yet, as noted, the Khan gave them a much better deal. Brutal? ,maybe, but remember The time period; it was a brutal age, more people died of disease, don't forget famine, and childbirth was no picnic, either. Women died giving birth, and if three babies out of five made it to adulthood, the family was lucky. The Khan brought civilization to a LOT of people and the Mongols taught everyone a new type of warfare. Incredible people, fabulous history. ✌♥️😸
If you watch the original video for it, the English lyrics are close captioned. The short version is that they're talking a lot of shit about the politicians who run their country.
Thank you Rage (ABC Australia) for having The HU guest present and introducing me to their music and influences. Fingers cross they make it to Oz so we can hear them live.
This is definitely a style very much filtered through Western aesthetics. I am no purist and am enjoying it for what it is. But it's a little *too* metal sounding to be pure Mongolian folk music.
I don't understand the Mongolian language but I have Wolf Totem,Yuve Yuve Yu and Shoog Shoog on my Spotify bluetoothed to my car audio playing in a loop. Inspiring kickass music.
My mother is Scandinavian, father is Mongolian and Chinese and my last name is Hu. My ancestors hate eachother and it still shows, I'll build a fence and my Mongolian half of me will kick it down
In case anyone is wondering, the two string instruments are called "Morin khuur" and their design predate violins/cellos by hundreds of years. A smaller member of this family is the "erhu" which was likely developed in China with Mongolian influence. For the curious searching Morin Khuur and Erhu here on youtube is an enjoyable musical journey to take.
@TRUMPY THE CLOWN do you know that some people in the world don't speak fluent english?? are you conscious of that? (by each details, i mean the music, the instruments, the voices, ..ok? )
Jaya is so much fun to watch! Check out some of the concert footage, if you haven't already. In concert he really goes all out! And Ono(the kid playing the drum) is also fun to watch!
@WarPaint 47 He does!! I saw a video of him before The Hu, and am amazed every time I watch it!! He must have been practicing for years and years to sound like that!! And to transition so smoothly!
Takes Mongolians to show that you can take pride in your own culture and herritage (Britain and the rest of Western Europe take note) , great band wish them all success in the future
We have Heilung! At least Denmark, Norway, and Germany does. But arguably their music represents the shared ancient past of all belonging to the Germanic and Nordic tribes, Anglo-Saxons included.
I think the HU points out something in that nationalism need not be black and white. You can have a healthy pride in your nation without being militaristic or an ass about it, you know? You can express that appreciation through music, dress, food, and language- etc.
Anglo Commando You guys just need to wait till the time comes, We conquered almost half of the know world and when we take pride in that, Unlike you brits on colonization and other things, No one can't talk shit because some how they have our DNA in them
@@UncopyrightableMuzik when people slaughter historical names it upsets me. I forget the stats but the Kahn empire was so large _/x # of people alive can trace their line to him. I'm sure he was the founding member of the #bigdickgang .
I love their music, I love their clothes, I love them. I love the lead singer's fashion sense as we share the same taste in clothing. These guys and their music are extremely cool.
@@ElMundoDeHadesOK mongolians are very few and far in between these days, with only a million and something citizens in their country, it is incredibly hard to get a culture out there to be seen. compared to america, south korea, and japan, it is not surprising that mongolia has little influence in our media, but holy shit, what does go out is fucking amazing.
Discovered these guys on a throat singing video a few years ago. It's been great seeing them bring heritage and culture to the international music scene
I love their clothing style. I want to wear that style. and the instruments look so well crafted and detailed work. such awesome music. been listening for weeks, now.
I am totally hooked on these Mongolians. They are the definition of warrior badass real men. And they are playing this acoustically with just as much huge wall of sound. Man, Mongols don't need electricity to be powerfully huge.
This song reminds our Khan's message of freedom of religion, intermarriage, culture mix to all HU (human beings). Genkhis Khan gave freedom to all including women, kids no matter of your birthplace. He awarded talent and loyalty before anything else!!!
Yeah, UA-cam recommended the song to me long ago. It was two days after Wolf Totem came out. So I went from one song to the next. Been a fan ever since! ^_^
I saw them in Amsterdam last night! They were so good! Can definitely recommend visiting them. Got my Hu shirt signed and took a picture with 2 of them as well!
Their music deserves to be heard and spread forth to the masses. I love their music as do my children😀 Let the Mongolian musical fountain spread forth and continue🙏 Blessings
Love you guys since couple months By accidentally but it's th BEST accidental EVER. Since than I love listening to you. It's always an honor to listen to you. Keep is coming. Love from New Mexico, USA. 🤟🤟😘😘😘😍😍😍😇😇😇😇
Crikey. It's taken a long time but it looks like Mongolia will conquer the world with bow and drum. I'm quite happy about it. Have a great time Hu, world connecting rock stars IMHO.
Such cool dudes. I love their strong music, the instruments are so cool and their outifits are badass. Amazing band! Hope to hear more music from them. Mongolians are amazing.
So excited they are coming to Detroit. Its their music thats helped me get back up and fighting on with courage and the strength of my ancestors during difficult times like recently. All need but listen to their music and you become empowered with strength and determination that can rival whatever stands in your way. Thanks so very much for your wonderful music that reaches not only the heart but drives the soul, we need more inspirational cultural unique music in this world. If I ever could I'd thank them personally, it be an honor to express my deep and humble gratitude to these guys for helping me get through hardship with their music, and how its changed my outlook in life all thanks to them.
That's the point of the instrument, it's designed to have that horse head, and when played in a specific way like in this song it sounds like a horse whiney
His voice is really amazing ...its seems like it came.from the grave , of all singers around the globe HE IS A RARE ONE KIND OF VOICE ...What a talent you made a SOUND OF A HORSE 🐎 out of your violin ( I don't know the name of that) amazing.
*_Urge to conquer known world on horse back intensifies_*

Same, bro. Same.
Noticed the guys sound the same live as they do on the video....no auto tune....🤔 Amazing guys. So glad they were recommended.
I wonder how auto tune would behave when used on throat singing
@@froffnix4710 you know, now that I read that again, after your comment....that does sound kinda stupid. How would that work?
@@froffnix4710 spice girls
Auto tune and throat singing? Wtf
Trenton Harris auto tune is tuning the sound,, would sound like EDM probably hahaha
Is it just me or do Mongolians look pretty badass??
It's not only you, saw a bunch of women in the comments expressing their desire to have Mongolian babies haha
Need to be in a movie or something...
Are the descendants of Genghis Khan, what did you think that look like?
they literally have more testosterones than most males in western europe
Mongols have always been badass. Invaded China yo...
When you know the meaning of the lyrics, you realise how bold it was for them to play this song in a polical building in London.
Do you know the meaning? if so, can you translate ?
If you watch the original video for it, the English lyrics are close captioned. The short version is that they're talking a lot of shit about the politicians who run their country.
@@mefirstyoulater but how are they playing in the embassy then??
Isn't the song about how people dont take them serious?
@@alexanderradunz9913 Oh yes...definitely a very bold statement! Love it.
If not for You Tube...this talent would be UNDISCOVERED...so glad they upload their music on it...so glad they share it with the world!!!
Thats just amazing isnt it soooooooo glad they getting the love they deserve
I second it!
excactly! SO many bands are afraid of sharing their music because of copyright bullshit. The more people you get out to the better.
That do play there music on planet rock radio😁
😍😍😍
Thank you Rage (ABC Australia) for having The HU guest present and introducing me to their music and influences. Fingers cross they make it to Oz so we can hear them live.
It's the Hu unplugged! Cool!
Unplugged in London.
This is the most metal sounding cultural music I've ever heard.
'cultural music'?
PrizePirate
"Bloodywood" same awesome
You haven’t heard me yet, I am the most metal
This is definitely a style very much filtered through Western aesthetics. I am no purist and am enjoying it for what it is. But it's a little *too* metal sounding to be pure Mongolian folk music.
Considering that metal "singing" techniques is similar to that of Mongolian throat singing, i am not surprised.
The work bands like The Hu, Heilung, Alien Weaponry, Wardruna, and so many more, cannot be overstated. A return to true heritage, and beliefs.
Thank you for commenting and sharing these bands. I have discovered more to love
Also Heilung, very good stuff
I discovered Alien Weaponry 3 weeks after they performed in my area...:(
Agreed
and "Huun-Huur-Tu"
So thrilled to see REAL MUSICIANS going viral.
Totally they are fire ❤️❤️❤️
I don't understand the Mongolian language but I have Wolf Totem,Yuve Yuve Yu and Shoog Shoog on my Spotify bluetoothed to my car audio playing in a loop. Inspiring kickass music.
u can find english subtitle on official video
yes
First time I saw the lyrics for wolf totem I thought this sounds a bit threatening but I think it's supposed to be the wolves side of things
Haha! Me too only I use premium downloads.
@@alanscoffins3148 I always cheer for the wolf 😁 like your comment

Their sound is the same no matter what venue they play indoor or outdoor they have no loss of sound quality no matter where they play.

It really is. That's a classic trick in traditional Mongolian music from what I hear.
It's called Mourin Kuur meaning horse fiddle in mongolian
Actually the strings are made from horse hair

This is so refreshing in seeing and hearing a pure version without any editing. Perfect!
they barely sound any different from the video which is amazing
If Genghis Khan wrote Metallica’s Enter Sandman it would sound as awesome as this

Of course Temujin was a very wholesome guy, a bit of freedom of religion there, a bit of genocide here... perfectly balanced as all things should be.
