People like this are just amazing to me. They delve deep into their roots and present it so beautifully and don't get the praise that they truly deserve.
AFR0PUNKHEAD13 I agree 100%. You can see, when he plays/sings ,he actually, "goes there", in his mind, with his voice, playing the instrument,all that. He's the Real Deal. I'm glad people like him can find and tap into their roots, so to speak. It'd be great if all cultures could do that on a musical level. Make their own instruments, sing their old songs, the culture that they happen to be from this time around(if you believe in the whole...reincarnation thing ). 😉
And then some leftiee came to this party and suddenly spit out of it's mouth that national heritage is something that shouldn't be involved in modern civilization and it needs to be destroyed because separeted culture of a country itself is racist. And It didn't happen for some reason. If I'd ever loose my mind and try to confront mentioned lefitst with arguments why It should stay where it is, I mean culture as it stands (music, history, art, tools etc.) I'd be literally called nazi. Do you see my point? There's not gonna be any more art, music performances like this because It will OFFEND someone even If it's already written history. And I don't think that history needs to be re-written, history is past where was something innapropriate even offensive, but that's how it was.. Destroying it would destroy us all.
Viking - translates directly to "Sea Raider". He's actually professed that he is a very peaceful, quiet person. He doesn't raid, nor is he a seafarer. He is a Skald (Nordic bards and story tellers through song and performance were and still are called Skalds). Good try though!
@Mac Kent I think the word you shouldve used is northman, or norseman. As a viking was the lads who raided the isles and sailed the seas. Einar is a skald, a sort of musician, if you may.
I just just love how during his whole performance its complete silence and focus to the song it self. Not the hype of the artist that stands before them. Its just pure humble artistery that not need any main stream hype to be appreciated. Einar Selvik and Wardruna is genious work of art!
Me. I self-spoiled myself back in season 1, chapter 2, for as soon as I finished watching I looked for the real Ragnar Lothbrok in a History book. And no, it won't make it any better in any way.
Ragnar's death scenes in the TV series were extremely cheesy, but they redeemed themselves in the very next episode where he "welcomes the Valkyries to summon him" to Valhalla. Very cool.
Ragnar Loðbrók The Actor of Ragnar did a great job. But you all honor him instead of the real Viking, The man WHO sailed west Ragnar Sigurdsson. Nicknamed Ragnar Lodbrok. He is a King, Father and Hero. Travis is just a great actor. Hail Odin the allfather way above Ragnar in status of the Norse paganism!
@@noelbergsten3200 you miss the point brother. Ragnar was never to of been proven to exist but his story regardless is about our race. We are ALL Ragnar. You, I, Travis, all of us white Europeans.
cette voix.. elle me transporte dans un navire , dans un passé lointain, trés lointain, comme si j allais au fond de mes racines vers le nord..j' ai un ressenti qui est trés fort! je comprend mieux ma progéniture...son courage vient de là bas
Great stuff Einar. It’s a pity the person doing the recording didn’t notice the needles going into the red on your powerful high notes. A beautiful sounding lyre!
Respect to our Nordic Cousins. We respect and celebrate the death of our people. We as Irish Celts follow the path to Tir na Nog. A special place where our Spirits are free and at peace with our Ancestors. We wait for Samhain to dance,drink, be merry with them all
I'm from Yorkshire in the north of England and the Vikings settled here when they invaded. I'm currently waiting for my ancestry DNA kit to arrive and I pray that my DNA has Scandinavian decent. I'm fascinated by the Vikings and Saxons also but if I find I hail from this ancestry I'll be thrilled.
Wayne Saunders my Last name is Stancil which is Anglo Saxon, and originated in I think either in south or north Yorkshire . My DNA test (23andme) said I have Scandinavian dna, but mostly 56% Irish .
Courtney Stancil thanks for the reply courtney. I'd just be really proud to know I hail from these great people. Also I really like the Saxon idea too this period of time fascinates me. Did you do the same DNA kit test? 👍.
Wayne Saunders which dna test did you do? I did 23andme. With your information about the Viking invading Yorkshire, that may be where my Scandinavian comes from(hopefully) it’s a stretch but I’m hoping.
My parents often wonder how the Vikings disappeared, then they google it and find they didn’t, they just assimilated themselves into other cultures. Well, Einar Selvik sure proves that the Viking genes are still among us. Breathtaking performance.
he sings with magic I felt a push out of my normal mental state while he was performing long time since it came to me sry about my bad english L.S. Schlieper
This song is called Ormagardskvedi It's an Excerpt from Ragnars saga loðbrókar. Eigi hugðak orma at aldrlagi mínu verðr mjök mörgu sinni, þats minnst varir sjálfan. Eigi hugðak orma at aldrlagi mínu verðr mjök mörgu sinni, þats minnst varir sjálfan. Nú munk nár af bragði ok nær dýrum deyja. Gnyðja mundu grísir, ef galtar hag vissi, mér er gnótt at grandi, grafa inn rönum sínum ok harðliga hváta, hafa mik sogit, ormar nú munk nár af bragði ok nær dýrum deyja. [English translation:] I did not look to a snake To be my bane Things happen very often To one that one thinks of the least I did not look to a snake To be my bane; Things happen very often To one that one thinks of the least Soon now will my body Die among the beasts The young pigs would squeal If they knew the state of the boar Of the injury done to me Snakes dig in my flesh Stab at me harshly And have sucked on me Soon now will my body Die among the beasts
This song helped me remember the necessity of Jormungandr: Humans need cleaning every now and then or they make a mess of things. Happy 2020. May your personal Ragnarok be as Joyous as it is Terrible; enjoy the ale while you can.
The skaldic version (this one) is so much better than the original. Ive come to prefer every skaldic version of previously released songs he puts out. And he has been getting better at it too... which really makes me enjoy them. Someone who gets better and better, and puts it out there to show it, is a good musician.
i read the stories some say he died by disease and some say he died by snakes king aelle and some say assassinated and the body never found , i love his legendary i feel like dark ages wasn't bad .
Nice play list. As well as Vikings stuff the Irish rebel songs and rebel South music i have also on various play lists and also enjoy. Theres another song missing from Gods and Generals Song of the rebel Irish i think you would like , in case you unaware of it.
I love how u mention Sweden and Denmark. But truth is Ragnar was bron in Norway. He later became king of Norway and Denmark. Björn his son became king of sweden though.
Yeah i know how he dies. This guys makes music for vikings. So they made him sing this for his death i think thats a spoiler right here.. but eveyone knows it
I am not sure, Historically Ragnar did die at the hand of the king Aellar of Northumbria by being thrown into the pit of snakes. Weather this song was written and performed in memory of the real Ragnar I do not know
Why are English people so reluctant to take a massive leaf out of this guy's book. I LOVE my England but I despair at its loss and all it's beautiful history. We can do just this. Be proud of who we were. The country is utterly full are parasites now but we still have a history and we should relish it. Make good honest and patriotic songs about the country we love and THEY ruined!!!
Magus Megorra it's sad my friend I am also English and love my history I'm patriotic but I've been called a racist so many times for being proud of my ancestry my history and my England... I'm so far from being racist I'm just a proud Englishman.....!
The UK has so much P-Celtic, Q-Celtic, Norwegian, Danish, and imperial cultural history. The myth that Anglo-Saxons, or their Danish/Norwegian cousins, replaced indigenous people has greatly damaged cultural history in the UK. You might appreciate the fact that the last native Cornish speaker died in the 1800s. You are lamenting lost UK culture, correct?
Evan O'Keeffe Never be ashamed of your heritage, not ever. Good and bad made those that made us. This is true of all people's lineage. You can be proud of your ancestry, I wish all people could look to their lineage and be proud or be inspired by it. How truly sad it is that so many people now days are ashamed of those whose struggle, victories and accomplishments have allowed for them to even exist here today. BE PROUD OF YOUR HERITAGE, AND BE NOT ASHAMED!

These Skalds are vital to their people today. Without them, our Ancestors die.
@Willy S he is speaking the Truth . You telling him to STOP speaking the TRUTH is being political !!!
The talent of this man is limitless!
This man, Einar Selvik, is VIKING !!!
No other words needed.
Hail Einar, Odin loves you!
Frank Mende -
What?
@Mac Kent viking is a type of nord that sails and conqueres, Einar is a skald.

No mic in midgard can handle the power of his voice. May the gods bless you Einar!
Chilling how he composed the words of a dying man to sound like a lullaby ...
Seriously, who knew what was coming and felt that this only made his final episode harder? I cried and am not ashamed-- and cried.
Me. I self-spoiled myself back in season 1, chapter 2, for as soon as I finished watching I looked for the real Ragnar Lothbrok in a History book. And no, it won't make it any better in any way.
Right? I think it was way worse knowing what was coming. But, you know, we also know what his sons are going to do, so. . . there's that. x
bro, everyone who has slight history knowledge knows that he dies in the snake pit by King Aella.
I was changed by this story in a very deep way, like an awareness that will never be forgotten.
Ragnar's death scenes in the TV series were extremely cheesy, but they redeemed themselves in the very next episode where he "welcomes the Valkyries to summon him" to Valhalla. Very cool.
I wish the audio was better so that I could appreciate the talent during the high notes. Nordic music is the best
Just got to hear this live at the symphony hall in Birmingham and it was so gorgeous 👌
Now this is a real emotional and sad song (poem),beautifully performed by Einar! Tears come to my eyes listening to it..😢💖👍👊
It's like I understand every word he's saying even though I don't speak Norse. Respect!
PROTECT EINAR OUR SACRED BROTHER I LOVE HIM GREATLY~IO~
Very talented man.Unique man.Respect from wild Russia!
when Nordic introverted becomes charismatic
3:49 R.I.P. Ragnar Lothbrok forever and ever... we loved you and we always will. You will be missed our King, Father and HERO!!!

@Steve Shepard - Ragnar Lothbrok was real because he has sons. So since they are real so was he 😀!!
My heart cried when Ragnar died in the series. I want this song at my own funeral
cette voix.. elle me transporte dans un navire , dans un passé lointain, trés lointain, comme si j allais au fond de mes racines vers le nord..j' ai un ressenti qui est trés fort! je comprend mieux ma progéniture...son courage vient de là bas
I love his voice! Einar is truly gifted.
I still can't get over the fact that I saw Wardruna live In Dalhalla and then now in the December this year! I'm counting the days!
This is beautiful, respect from Serbia
Einar can really sing, and he even looks a lot like Travis Fimmel. That beard is EPIC!
In the name of odin and the name of ragnar that of the best thing i hear ever 🖤
Avery time i listen to this song my heart broke 💔💔
wish i could learn this language and sing it so beautiful...
Amazing greting from Slovakia.
Это какая-то магия, смотрел с открытым ртом! Не мог оторваться, так меня обворожило
Не описать!
Согласна, что фильм, что музыка и песни , душа плачет и радуется дикие эмоции!!!!!
Great stuff Einar. It’s a pity the person doing the recording didn’t notice the needles going into the red on your powerful high notes. A beautiful sounding lyre!
Товарисч. Это ШЕДЕВР. Просто великолепно. Спасибо тебе.
Respect to our Nordic Cousins. We respect and celebrate the death of our people. We as Irish Celts follow the path to Tir na Nog. A special place where our Spirits are free and at peace with our Ancestors. We wait for Samhain to dance,drink, be merry with them all
The death of our people is coming. I am not sure if you actually meant to say that but it is true non the less.
¡Legendario!

I love Einar.....
Guy is really awesome, that's a pain I've never heard him before
I am reviewing his performance in Krakow on 30 may 2015 time after time. He perfectly executed a Suite of Vikings. it gave me the creeps.
he sings with magic
I felt a push out of my normal mental state while he was performing
long time since it came to me
sry about my bad english
L.S. Schlieper
I want this guy in eurovision
That crapfest doesn't deserve Einar.
He would not win anyways, thats crap
Henrique Ribeiro not to be rude to Rybak, but Einar REALLY knows how to write a song.
Great 👍 performance.
the jews won't allow it
This is so beautiful
Amazing, simply amazing
Beautifull
My roots.... soul medicine.
Ehm I just found the Spirit of Ragnar in a men of our time...
This song is called Ormagardskvedi
It's an Excerpt from Ragnars saga loðbrókar.
Eigi hugðak orma
at aldrlagi mínu
verðr mjök mörgu sinni,
þats minnst varir sjálfan.
Eigi hugðak orma
at aldrlagi mínu
verðr mjök mörgu sinni,
þats minnst varir sjálfan.
Nú munk nár af bragði
ok nær dýrum deyja.
Gnyðja mundu grísir,
ef galtar hag vissi,
mér er gnótt at grandi,
grafa inn rönum sínum
ok harðliga hváta,
hafa mik sogit, ormar
nú munk nár af bragði
ok nær dýrum deyja.
[English translation:]
I did not look to a snake
To be my bane
Things happen very often
To one that one thinks of the least
I did not look to a snake
To be my bane;
Things happen very often
To one that one thinks of the least
Soon now will my body
Die among the beasts
The young pigs would squeal
If they knew the state of the boar
Of the injury done to me
Snakes dig in my flesh
Stab at me harshly
And have sucked on me
Soon now will my body
Die among the beasts
Thankyou
So beautiful!!!
fuck me! I just can't get enough of this song!
guys this is just amazing realy i dont undrstand a thing but this is truly is rangar death song amazing the feeling the pation and the sadness
This song helped me remember the necessity of Jormungandr: Humans need cleaning every now and then or they make a mess of things.
Happy 2020. May your personal Ragnarok be as Joyous as it is Terrible; enjoy the ale while you can.
Ton talent n'a pas de limite
The gods cry off his beauty voice
Epic!!!
The skaldic version (this one) is so much better than the original. Ive come to prefer every skaldic version of previously released songs he puts out. And he has been getting better at it too... which really makes me enjoy them. Someone who gets better and better, and puts it out there to show it, is a good musician.

Maravilhoso...music espiritual

Belíssimo vocalista 🖤
Awesome

Einar Selvik singing about Ragnarr Loðbrók, am I dreaming?
does this mean that ragnar will die in the end of the season?
I don't know how it will be in TV show, but most likely yes. Remember the scene with King Aelle's snake pit?
Yeah i know how he dies. This guys makes music for vikings. So they made him sing this for his death i think thats a spoiler right here.. but eveyone knows it
Wardruna was around before History made the Vikings tv show
yes but its the first time he perform this song, Or am i wrong?
I am not sure, Historically Ragnar did die at the hand of the king Aellar of Northumbria by being thrown into the pit of snakes. Weather this song was written and performed in memory of the real Ragnar I do not know
He is singing in old norse and is very similar to the icelandic language today.
Farnist vel
Omg it's the same that they played on Bjorn ironside death 😭😭😭😭😭
He's not dead!!!!😉
@@Sonny-wd2nl yeah I saw the trailer ❤❤❤❤ and i knew that's he didn't die
I love Wardruna and Einar's voice but the first thing I saw on this video was that Alvar Aalto lamp in the backgroung. Fangirl moment intensifies.
I from Brazil but
its feeling my soul
My ancestors are Saxon and Blackstar
Vir um more Saxon
will there be a studio release of this song ?
i cried
He's my spirit animal!
What are the lyrics please thanks
10000 years later
I aspire to be this man.
Emocionante
i would love to know what the norse lyrics mean in english
Ragnar loves you, see you on the other side :-)
Como se llama ese instrumento? Es una lira? Que tipo de lira es? / What is the name of that instrument? Is it a lyre? What kind of lyre is it?
Dont cry o fuck it 😭😭😭😭 so pretty. Love our ancestors and our volk and our race.
That's pretty dope!
c'est manifique

Normal people start praying or crying before death. Fucking Ragnar starts reciting poetry.
IS THERE ANY KIND OF SHEET MUSIC?
