So this is the most beautiful and terrific ad I've ever seen in my life. Everything is perfect and the beauty of Sweden is showed in the most appropriate way. Congratulations Volvo, I'm truly obsessed with this video.
Det här är en hyllning till Sverige när det är som kärvast. Ett tack till kylan, mörkret, blåsten och regnet. Därför att utan våra hårda svenska förhållanden hade vi aldrig gjort de bilar vi gör. Vem som helst kan bygga en bil som fungerar i solsken och vackert väder. Att utveckla bilar som tar dig dit du ska oavsett väder och väglag är en helt annan sak. #madebysweden
Skulle ni inte kunna fixa lite bakgrundsbilder till mobil, surfplatta och dator med bilder av era bilar och Sveriges alla olika landskap? Skulle vara väldigt coolt!
Som en utlandsboende svensk, inser jag plötsligt hur mycket jag älskar Sverige. Dess mångfald i alla dess former. Ett land bortom allt annat. Ett land jag saknar.
Instämmer! Jag bor, verkar och är lyckligt gift i Chiapas, Mexiko, men det här är vackert så det söker en, som det hette i det Småland jag växte upp i. Det betyder att det svartnar för ögonen. Late answer, nio år har gått sin din kommentar...
Every time I watch this ad, I can feel chills down my spine. I've spent 6 months in Sweden and they meant a lot for me, for reasons I won't bore you with. This is beautiful.
This video literally made me cry. This is more than just an another ad; this is an absolutely stunning, beautiful piece of pure art. Bravo! Thank You, Volvo!
Hey if it was'nt for Volvo then i would'nt have realised that swedish taste for design, the sense and sensibilties, are among the best in the world. These videos by Volvo give an insight into Swedish society and the country itself. It's the biggest exercise in the concept of 'Soft power', and i am hooked.....
My son is 4 y.o. and he is watching the commercial every day...and asking dad when will come the winter to get out with our xc90. Sweden is a beautiful country but the winter is always hard... even here in Bulgaria. I never thought that I will drive a Volvo...but I think this is the most balanced car ever made!!!!
Few things after watching this video I felt; I want to learn Swedish because it’s a beautiful language, get a Volvo XC90 because it’s a beautiful car and drive through Sweden sightseeing because it’s a beautiful, amazing place on earth.
By far the best car commercial that I have seen in many years. The level of emotion present for something like this is unprecedented. Sweden is a beautiful country that is worth fighting for. Please Sweden, hold on to your culture before it is too late.
This is a tribute to Sweden when it is at its toughest. Thanks to the cold, the darkness, the wind and the rain. Because without our harsh Swedish conditions, we would never have made the cars we make. Anyone can build a car that works in sunshine and beautiful weather. Developing cars that take you where you are going, regardless of the weather and road conditions, is a completely different matter.
My brother showed me this when I came back from living abroad. He knew I had missed the winter, the pale blue skies, snow crunching beneath your boots and the chill in the air that wakes your lungs and makes you feel alive. I wasn't born here, but it has changed me, shaped me after 40 years of lighting candles in the winter dark, and staying up all night during the summer just to see the sun dip in the horizon, only to rise again and turn the clouds purple and gold. The north is in my blood, in my bones. I live here and I will someday die here, thankful and happy.
I keep coming back to this video after 4 years of finding it, and the emotions it evokes out of me is so fucking hard to describe, but it inspired me in so many ways. Good job Volvo, you won to ad game with this one for me.
An ode to you Volvo for encapsulating Sweden's natural beauty through your vehicles. Top form cinematography. Everything just falls into place. It is literally beyond words.
Älskar det! Den personliga favoriten till låt som är en sådan kärleksförklaring till vårt land. Den blandade skara av folk som gör Sverige till vad det är idag. Bildspråket som passar det stora vemodet (men liiiite vackra o varma sommarbilder hade inte skadat ;) ).
Tror de valde just januariklimatet till filmen för att medge att Volvobilar är formade av det kärva svenska vädret :P spelar ingen roll om det är -30C eller +25C, bilhelvetet kommer starta haha
Asså jag har denna på repeat. F&B säger jag bara. När man trodde dom inte kunde toppa The epic split löser dom denna. Hats off to you gents and ladies*
Volvo for life! My dad drives XC60 and he loves it (me too). Such a comfortable and safe car, yet humble and not flashy. This brand perfectly represents all I admire about Sweden. Love from Krakow, Poland.
You have Oskar Linnros to thank for the amazing song in this ad. He is one of swedens most amazing songwriters and composers, he has produced for alot of great swedish artist. Inclouding this song and many other pieces of art.
Im am here in sweden as a Exchange Student and they showed us this Video in a Course called international Marketing and ist certainly one of the best ads i have ever seen. The song and the picture capturing the hard swedish winter, which is still beatiful, perfectly. It wake up the emotions i really felling living here in sweden for a few months
Oskar Linnros did not write this song (Ted Ström did, 1984), but he did produce this version (with Amanda Bergman singing). The song is great, no wonder it has been recorded in so many versions Shrantellatessa, you'll get the hang of Swedish soon enough :-) Welcome here! if you want to get more of the lyrics to this song, perhaps you can google-translate it? www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/Ted-Ström-2/Vintersaga
Here comes my english translation: ________ A coastal tanker pushes through the drift ice in Kvarken A training session at Ullevi in haze The border station in Torneå, an old woman on a kicksled Landsorts lighthouse where the snowstorm draws in Dense snow on Mariaberget's slopes Hot and sweaty at Statt in Härnösand A trailer in snow smoke between Kiruna and beyond Flickering lights in the port of Visby That is when the great vemod draws in And from the sea an icy, gray-cold wind roars In Malmö, the fog is slit by the ferries sirens On the other side of the strait, the world begins A desolate Volvo fights in the headwind on the Tjörn bridge The cinema in Pajala gives "The last journey" The Lapplandspilen roars like a wild beast through the night The homesteads turn off their lights A storm-whipped Marstrand prays to its Pater Noster Stockholmcity sways in its intoxication That is when the great vemod draws in And from the sea an icy, gray-cold wind roars That is when the great vemod draws in And from the sea an icy, gray-cold wind roars ________ There is no direct translation of the word "vemod" so I didnt translate that. But I would desciribe it as a feeling of sadness, wistfullness and longing. There is an enlish expression called "Mono no aware" that is the most accurate. "Ve" in "vemod" means woe or misery and "mod" means heart or fortitude
@@dprhaechan2481 that was a rhetorical question...ofcourse I understand it is an advertisement ...what I meant was it is as good as a movie!!!!and many people have had a similar reaction!
I think the Volvo is the best on earth. These cars have a lot of soul, they are not like others they have their own charm and character. If you love a Volvo, it's for life. I wish all good and happiness. Greetings from Russia.
Om alla verkligen kunde verserna och ”smakat” på orden och tagit dem till sig i nationalsången så hade de inte velat byta ut den vi har. Vi har gärna sjungit tre verser stolta som furor❣️❣️❣️
What a beautiful country you have, Swedish people. I would gladly leave mine behind, except for my birth village and its surroundings for which I will always have a great and deep love... Keep it true and safe and be happy there! It's all I wish to and for you. And bravo to Volvo for making their advertisings the greatest I have ever seen to date.
How do you speak with them? Did you learn Swedish ? How is it, why it's utopian? Tell me more I wanna know :o ! I would like to go to Sweden.. Even tho it's a '' Kingdom '' ''outside'' Europe (I'm in north Europe) Why would I go to Sweden ? To enjoy the fresh, freeze, cold, weather, I hate the sun, it burns me and my snow skin . Gotta put sunglasses everytime I go out.. SMH ) my eyes are Dark Ocean Blue(like Gordon Ramsey.. (Well a little more blue dark cause sometimes he wears contact lenses) ) and it burns them without sunglasses :c , my country weather didn't respect my genetic.. ) (I wanted to go to Canada.. Too far and they don't need me anyway... ) But not only.... Because here in my country, I'm just ''over'' graduated.. And bosses can't pay me lower than what my grade deserve to be payed... It's forbidden.. They can be sued, law is very hard on it. Can't find jobs here... ( I'm a Network System Administrator specialist in Cybersecurity) I would love to learn and speak the language, work for the country, bring my knowledge, give back what Sweden gives me. It could be easy for me.. I'm a European after all, got Nordic genetic and culture , not afraid of snow, and own a Volvo, love the Ghost band the Äkta Människor serie :'D Is it a good argument to go to Sweden... To Work ? Do you think they'll accept me to work there ?
Sweden is very difficult to get into. A Swede will never tell you what they actually think. It's a very closed society that can appear open to some but it's an illusion and I have never met anyone that truly learned the unspoken language in Sweden after moving here. Even people born here struggle with that, unless born into a Swedish family. This is coming from a Swede who has lived around the world. People can be nice but it's mostly for appearances, especially to newcomers.
dabeast / i cant agree i am polish who move to Sweden in 2015 my wife is swedish, i am having Two children, i learn language quite fast( i can also speak polish,german,english,russian) people always Were kind and open for me, ofc its some black sheeps (like everywhere) but overall i think swedish people are different but not worst....than others,i have a lot of friends here, true friends. Jag älskar Norrbotten men jag bor på Tjörn;) Heja Sverige!!!
Marre8056 most important language if he cant speak yet, its making everything easier, i seperate myself from polish/english speaking people , and other think is that he supposed to stop think like polish(thats our biggest mistake) he need reset, and Chill, i am leaving on tjörn so its completely different, i dont like cities;) is he „new” in Sweden?
Det här fan bästa volvo har gjort! Första gången jag hörde den så stod varje hår strå rakt upp! Fort så här volvo o ni kommer sjukt sälja hur mycket bilar som helst o med svensk kvalite ! O ingen snack där. Kör själv en Volvo T6a o är sjukt nöjd!!
A swedish friend showed me this video and I felt in love with it right away.The music,the pictures,the emotions..it just wonderful,best TVC I have ever seen..
Jag är totalt ointresserad av bilar, förlåt Volvo. Finns det dock NÅGON annan "reklam" i hela världen som man aktivt söker upp på internet och faktiskt kollar/lyssnar på? En fantastisk hyllning till vårat fina land. Tack för en mängd olika fina "reklamer", hälsa er marknadsavdelning att de verkligen gör ett otroligt bra jobb!
still watching it in 2021...remembering times when I used to live in Sweden, when I experienced all kinds of weather, that make you only stronger..perfect depiction of a country that cares for nature and respects it.
This commercial is epic! Makes me proud of my homeland everytime. An old song that has been masterly remade and scenary of our raw but beatiful and diversed nature. Kudos!
Utan tvekan bästa reklamen från Volvo någonsin. Bättre än Zlatan. Den här känns Sverige. Andas Sverige. Mycket mäktig, och man blir bra lockad till en Volvo och mycket stolt som Svensk. Fortsätt i denna anda och gör reklamen läääängre på TV för att skapa känslan i soffan och inte bara framför datorn.
Sublime. I´m a Swede. My country is just as horrible and amazingly wonderful as depicted in this song. Goosebumps! It´s of course even better in Swedish. Very Nordic, very Swedish in this exact form, yet you can find a similar sentiment in most cultures I believe. Brazil has it´s famous "saudade" and from Mexico you can hear it in the songs of Juan Gabriel, for example in "Amor eterno" or "Hasta que te conocí", master pieces where a double sentiment of gratefulness towards life and great pain are being intertwined and can´t be separated.
Fantastisk uppföljare till Zlatanfilmen. Får mig att ångra att vi inte köpte en Volvo, och då har de lyckats bra. Och fin fin version av Vintersaga, även om jag tycker att Monica Törnells version är bra, passar denna så mycket bättre in i den berättelse som Volvo vill ge. Och att det är en berättelse som en (väldigt högljud) minoritet i Sverige inte känner igen sig i, gör inte saken sämre för mig.
English lyrics for those who do not speak Swedish. Ted Ström is the original artists who wrote and performed the song, the first time in 1984. But other artists have done better versions of it since then. A coastal tanker stomping through the pack ice in the Quark, a workout at Ullevi in haze. Border station in Tornio an old woman on a kicksled, Landsort lighthouse where the snow storm sweeps in. Dense snow and sleet in the hills of Mariaberget, hot and sweat at Statt in Härnösand. A truck in the whirling snow between Kiruna and the distant, flickering lights in Visby harbour. It is then that the great melancholy rolls in and from the sea blows an icy bleak wind. In Malmö the mist is scratched by the ferries sirens, and on the other side of the strait the world begins. A lonely Volvo rips in the headwind on the Tjörn Bridge, the cinema in Pajala gives "Deliverance". Lapplandspilen bellows like a wild beast through the night, the farms turns off their lights. A storm-beaten Marstrand says its Pater Noster, Stockholm City sways in drunkenness. / One refrain reprise and the third strophe is missing in the version sung by Amanda Bergman / It is then that the great melancholy rolls in and from the sea blows an icy bleak wind. it is then that the great melancholy rolls in and from the sea blows an icy bleak wind.
I’m obsessed watching this, the cars go really well within the commercial and also the wonderful shots taken by the cameraman. I really want to remake this commercial when I have a Volvo. Thank you Volvo and the people behind who filmed and edited this commercial 😍😍👏🏻👏🏻
Какая потрясающая северная красотка. Природа, дизайн, человечность , холод скалы и моря , и тепло очага. Шум листвы и ветра и озимых колосков в поле. Это потрясающий потрясающий шедевр и МИР ДОРОВАННЫЙ ШВЕЦИЕЙ И и ее великой протестантской культуре. Да здравствует стараясь добрая Швеция !
Äger själv nu en Volvo V40 CC från 2018 ”Facelift” snart haft den i ett år verkligen ett köp jag inte ångrar, älskar den här låten ❤️ brukar höja upp volymen lite till om den kommer på radion ✨
this is not a commercial... this is a cinematographic masterpiece.
yes
yes it is
Unfortunately not. This is a Swedish classic that is distorted for commercial purposes

Read up on the word "Vemod" its a very Swedish thing that this song depict so well^^
Here comes my english translation:
________
A coastal tanker pushes through the drift ice in Kvarken
A training session at Ullevi in haze
The border station in Torneå, an old woman on a kicksled
Landsorts lighthouse where the snowstorm draws in
Dense snow on Mariaberget's slopes
Hot and sweaty at Statt in Härnösand
A trailer in snow smoke between Kiruna and beyond
Flickering lights in the port of Visby
That is when the great vemod draws in
And from the sea an icy, gray-cold wind roars
In Malmö, the fog is slit by the ferries sirens
On the other side of the strait, the world begins
A desolate Volvo fights in the headwind on the Tjörn bridge
The cinema in Pajala gives "The last journey"
The Lapplandspilen roars like a wild beast through the night
The homesteads turn off their lights
A storm-whipped Marstrand prays to its Pater Noster
Stockholmcity sways in its intoxication
That is when the great vemod draws in
And from the sea an icy, gray-cold wind roars
That is when the great vemod draws in
And from the sea an icy, gray-cold wind roars

There is no direct translation of the word "vemod" so I didnt translate that.
But I would desciribe it as a feeling of sadness, wistfullness and longing. There is an enlish expression called "Mono no aware" that is the most accurate.
"Ve" in "vemod" means woe or misery and "mod" means heart or fortitude
A true masterpiece. Not even a commercial, it’s a beautiful cinematographic masterpiece that almost makes me cry everytime I watch it.

Marre8056 most important language if he cant speak yet, its making everything easier, i seperate myself from polish/english speaking people , and other think is that he supposed to stop think like polish(thats our biggest mistake) he need reset, and Chill, i am leaving on tjörn so its completely different, i dont like cities;) is he „new” in Sweden?
Det här fan bästa volvo har gjort! Första gången jag hörde den så stod varje hår strå rakt upp! Fort så här volvo o ni kommer sjukt sälja hur mycket bilar som helst o med svensk kvalite ! O ingen snack där. Kör själv en Volvo T6a o är sjukt nöjd!!
So I genuinely dislike advertisements, but this one was terrific. I loved it. Trevligt!
This is so beautiful. Makes me proud to be Swedish!
A swedish friend showed me this video and I felt in love with it right away.The music,the pictures,the emotions..it just wonderful,best TVC I have ever seen..
Jag är totalt ointresserad av bilar, förlåt Volvo. Finns det dock NÅGON annan "reklam" i hela världen som man aktivt söker upp på internet och faktiskt kollar/lyssnar på? En fantastisk hyllning till vårat fina land. Tack för en mängd olika fina "reklamer", hälsa er marknadsavdelning att de verkligen gör ett otroligt bra jobb!
still watching it in 2021...remembering times when I used to live in Sweden, when I experienced all kinds of weather, that make you only stronger..perfect depiction of a country that cares for nature and respects it.
Man bli stolt över att vara svensk efter att ha kollat på denna reklamfilm!
Stunning cinematography.
Den svenska vintern är grymt underskattad.... Så sjukt stämningsfull och relaterbar låt!
my god this clip was so good , i never wanted it to end, so beautiful ...
This commercial is epic! Makes me proud of my homeland everytime. An old song that has been masterly remade and scenary of our raw but beatiful and diversed nature. Kudos!
Vill gärna säga att reklam inte biter på mig, men denna biter faktiskt ganska hårt. Bra jobbat alla som ligger bakom denna film!
This is such a love letter to our beautiful country and I love this rendition of this song!
Den här har gått på repeat hela morgonen.
Fan i mig vackert!
Vakraste och den bästa hyllning till Sverige, for shore!!! Sången är fenomenal! Tack! Tusen tack! Sveriges alternativa nationalsång!!! ;)
Utmärkt marknadsföring! Också gillade sången! Bra jobbat grannar!

Fortfarande den bästa reklamen jag sett, någonsin. Född 1984l
Dla mnie ta reklama to po prostu mistrzostwo świata! Muzyka genialna , obraz niesamowity, aż kupiłem volvo !
Volvos och Icas reklamer är de enda som faktiskt är underållande och som man kan titta på frivilligt.
I don't understand the language of the song still I love to listen to it...love from India
Nog den bästa reklamfilm jag någonsin sett faktiskt! Eloge till er på Volvo!
Still the best car ad of all time.
Mest magiska reklamfilmen som någonsin gjorts. Ute o gick på ett decembergrått Landsort samtidigt som jag kollade denna o fick gåshud. Mästerverk.
I absolutely love this song ;) Good job.
This is amazing land... very closed but friendly people, city and village, nature and urbanistic lands... words from tourist. Excellent job, Volvo.
This song is a masterpiece
Any idea what it’s called?
4 minuters video, 1 timmes läsning. tack för det
Får fan rysningar av denna video! Bästa reklamen någonsin.
i think this is without a doubt the best advertisment ive seen...not only from volvo, but SO FAR!!
thx!!!!
Absolutely love this song *_* Sweden: my home in future
The best car ad ever! Makes you feel very homesick.
Vemod, that is.
Utan tvekan bästa reklamen från Volvo någonsin. Bättre än Zlatan.
Den här känns Sverige. Andas Sverige. Mycket mäktig, och man blir bra lockad till en Volvo och mycket stolt som Svensk.
Fortsätt i denna anda och gör reklamen läääängre på TV för att skapa känslan i soffan och inte bara framför datorn.
august 2024 and i‘m still watching this 😭🙌❤️
Sublime. I´m a Swede. My country is just as horrible and amazingly wonderful as depicted in this song. Goosebumps! It´s of course even better in Swedish.
Very Nordic, very Swedish in this exact form, yet you can find a similar sentiment in most cultures I believe. Brazil has it´s famous "saudade" and from Mexico you can hear it in the songs of Juan Gabriel, for example in "Amor eterno" or "Hasta que te conocí", master pieces where a double sentiment of gratefulness towards life and great pain are being intertwined and can´t be separated.
Sweden you are truely awesome...!!! My favourite country. One of the places where I would like to visit before I die top priority on my bucket list
So, have you been here yet?
@@mercurious5053 not yet :(
@@karanshah5604 still on your list?
@@mercurious5053 of course !
@@karanshah5604 aim at the northern part! You'll get a more genuine and memorable experience 💚
Grymt bra klipp, blir ju allt lite stolt att arbeta på motorfabriken när jag ser detta :-)
Fantastisk reklamfilm
Underbart vackert! Älskar Sverige, med alla dess variationer av kyla, snö, vind, hav, sol och värme...
Fantastisk uppföljare till Zlatanfilmen. Får mig att ångra att vi inte köpte en Volvo, och då har de lyckats bra. Och fin fin version av Vintersaga, även om jag tycker att Monica Törnells version är bra, passar denna så mycket bättre in i den berättelse som Volvo vill ge. Och att det är en berättelse som en (väldigt högljud) minoritet i Sverige inte känner igen sig i, gör inte saken sämre för mig.

Världens bästa reklamfilm! Man får gåshud...
English lyrics for those who do not speak Swedish. Ted Ström is the original artists who wrote and performed the song, the first time in 1984. But other artists have done better versions of it since then.
A coastal tanker stomping through the pack ice in the Quark,
a workout at Ullevi in haze.
Border station in Tornio an old woman on a kicksled,
Landsort lighthouse where the snow storm sweeps in.
Dense snow and sleet in the hills of Mariaberget,
hot and sweat at Statt in Härnösand.
A truck in the whirling snow between Kiruna and the distant,
flickering lights in Visby harbour.
It is then that the great melancholy rolls in
and from the sea blows an icy bleak wind.
In Malmö the mist is scratched by the ferries sirens,
and on the other side of the strait the world begins.
A lonely Volvo rips in the headwind on the Tjörn Bridge,
the cinema in Pajala gives "Deliverance".
Lapplandspilen bellows like a wild beast through the night,
the farms turns off their lights.
A storm-beaten Marstrand says its Pater Noster,
Stockholm City sways in drunkenness.
/ One refrain reprise and the third strophe is missing in the version sung by Amanda Bergman /
It is then that the great melancholy rolls in
and from the sea blows an icy bleak wind.
it is then that the great melancholy rolls in
and from the sea blows an icy bleak wind.

Who did this version?
@@hey_kudisco_podcast Amanda Bergman and Oscar Linnros
Thank you! @@davidborgstrom
I’m obsessed watching this, the cars go really well within the commercial and also the wonderful shots taken by the cameraman. I really want to remake this commercial when I have a Volvo. Thank you Volvo and the people behind who filmed and edited this commercial 😍😍👏🏻👏🏻
Why is this so good?! Every time! I want a Volvo now :D
A straight and aesthetic commercial. The characteristics of Volvo are well represented. Great. Greetings from Germany.

Wonderful pairing of the lyrics with the song and video!
As a swedish speaker, I’m utterly confused by the “translated” lyrics.
However it’s still the best commercial I’ve ever seen.👍
Jag älskar det! 🇸🇪
Какая потрясающая северная красотка. Природа, дизайн, человечность , холод скалы и моря , и тепло очага. Шум листвы и ветра и озимых колосков в поле. Это потрясающий потрясающий шедевр и МИР ДОРОВАННЫЙ ШВЕЦИЕЙ И
и ее великой протестантской культуре. Да здравствует стараясь добрая Швеция !
Vackraste reklamfilmen jag sett ever. Hatten av. Fortsätt så. :)
Bland de bästa reklamfilmerna som finns
I seriously see this video every morning when i drink my morning coffee! :O
Fantastisk låt med en fantastisk video. Fångar verkligen det svenska vemodet.
Amazingly well done video. Truly inspiring and helpfull for a Swede to love his nation in all its beauty.
😳 Spenderar all min ledighet i Sverige. Nu fick jag svaret varför. Så vackert. Får så mycket känslor av denna video ❤️
Best commercial I have ever seen and the music is awesome 👍🏻💕
Äger själv nu en Volvo V40 CC från 2018 ”Facelift” snart haft den i ett år verkligen ett köp jag inte ångrar, älskar den här låten ❤️ brukar höja upp volymen lite till om den kommer på radion ✨
Nu kommer tårarna igen, helvete vad vackert Sverige är.
breathtaking! such a unique piece of land with unique culture. volvo is the symbol of scandinavian lifestyle.
Rest in peace Börje Salming, Swedish national icon ❤️
