Even in piano form I can still envision the sadness of a frozen drowning norseman who's father sits in sadness and sorrow as he does not know if his son will ever return from war. Fear not you two. Odin will unite you both in Valhalla.
This greatest of all Amon Amarth songs deserves to be played by you...and you definitely deserve to play this!!! SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL that this almost kills me...
Best part of the song... The endless ocean swallows me... this will be my cold wet tomb... i could cry with this lyrics... Nice work!!! Amazing song.. Amazing band!!!
i'm a metal head and i know the original song... i appreciate this cover, i really like it. we metalhead are not some blind human being, we can see what counts and what is good for our hears to be listened... and don't forget that some metal albums take inspirations from classical music and piano players of the past... the piano fits very well this song, i really like it. CONGRATS!!
That's awesome! Putting it onto piano like that shows just how melodic bands like Amon are! Not in the vocals, obviously, but still. Nicely done, Nicely done.
This is my favorite AA song. I don't think I've ever heard a song that better matches melody with lyrics and the story unfolding. You do, as always, a fantastic job. I've seen AA Live twice, but I have yet to hear this song in one of their concerts, maybe third time will be the charm. ;) keep it up!!
I love it and get never tired in listening to. It´s better than the original and even the original song is f***g brilliant!!! I´m waiting for more great covers of AA!!!
Wow! I can not find the right words. It was fantastic to listen to. Thank you. How come I only found your channel today? You are awesome. Congratulations
Favorite song of the album. Did a guitar drums, vocals cover a while ago, but had to reinstall windows before it ever made it to my page. VERY impressive. Wish I could play piano like you.
Loved it!!!! I think if a female vocalist accompanies you with this it would be neat to hear. Such an awesome song and well done cover, Odin is pleased I'm sure!
This is fucking amazing. I can't even begin to describe how much I love this cover, of a song I already love, from a band I already love. Keep up the awesome work!! ^_^
I was acutally just about to message you and tell you to do this song xD it's my favorite, next to live for the kill and where silent guards stand guard good job man, as always :)
I just learned how to play this on my guitar the other night, and I have to say, for an amazing song, you've taken it to another level. Fucking pro man. Do more AA covers like this!
@DeadlyThrashViking I'm a music major that listens to metal and you wouldn't believe the flak I get from a lot of people for listening to what I believe is the greatest genre of music out there. I completely agree with your opinion.
It's melodeath metal (melodic death metal) with Norse mythology lyrics. (Viking lyrics) They were quoted saying that they don't play Viking Metal or even know what that is. They play Melodeath. So yes, it is Death Metal. Yes, it is Melodic Metal. Yes, it is Viking Metal. Although at the same time. No, it's not Death Metal. No, it's not Melodic Metal. No, it's not Viking Metal. Oh, by the way, this video freaking kicks ass. I subbed to you just for this video.
"It's not about death! It's a very sad and lovely story" "...But he dies, right?" "It's more then that!" This is a)amazing Al, and b) ...makes me laugh that you're now into Swedish death metal.
you should really try to get this recorded with some professional/semi-professional software, its absolutely stunning as it is but if it was recorded and mixed i think it would really capture the richness and fullness of the melodies. major props, this is an incredible cover, as is your cover of Under The Northern Star
Even in piano form I can still envision the sadness of a frozen drowning norseman who's father sits in sadness and sorrow as he does not know if his son will ever return from war. Fear not you two. Odin will unite you both in Valhalla.

Greetings from Hungary
Looking back, how do you feel this comment aged?
I almost cried a man tear. Awesome work.
Really shows how versatile metal is, that it can be translated to so many mediums like piano and still have such a perfect feeling. Beautiful work.
You really captured the brutal melancholy of the original in this cover
Best cover this song has. Been coming back to this video for more than 10

The proves why Amon Amarth is godlike death metal. Exceptionally well done melodies..

Wow!!!!!!!!! Best cover ever!!!!!
This greatest of all Amon Amarth songs deserves to be played by you...and you definitely deserve to play this!!! SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL that this almost kills me...

How do you intend to play anything if you are dead? ;-)

you amaze me. i never thought you could replicate music of guitars like this using a piano.
That's awesome! Putting it onto piano like that shows just how melodic bands like Amon are! Not in the vocals, obviously, but still. Nicely done, Nicely done.
This is amazing. You're a very talented musician. This gave me chills.
Absolutely amazing, you took the shear brutalness of a death metal band and put your own elegant twist on it.
Outstanding, bravo
Brutal cover=). The innocence of the piano with the epicness of Amon Amarth!
This is my favorite AA song. I don't think I've ever heard a song that better matches melody with lyrics and the story unfolding. You do, as always, a fantastic job. I've seen AA Live twice, but I have yet to hear this song in one of their concerts, maybe third time will be the charm. ;) keep it up!!
Really adds to the atmosphere of an already great song.
