FILLER VIDEO! Our first international trip post-pandemic. This was such an amazing experience thanks Nanook for inviting us and sponsoring this whole adventure. It's not often I get to make these travel-exposé style videos but I love doing them. Enjoy the band you can't understand (unless you're from Greenland) NANOOK! and...Where should I go next?
You can check out Bloodywood. They are an Indian folk metal band and have played at Wacken in 2019. I hope you like them. Most of their songs have a message behind them which they speak about at the end of the videos. Jee Veeray is about fighting depression and my favourite. You can also check out Yaad if you like pets. Myrath is another metal band from Tunisia who are equally awesome. I don't understand them but I love them nonetheless.
I have no idea how it would happen but this makes me wanna see him do a similar thing with The Hu. They are like the Mongolian version of this, mixing traditional Mongolian instruments and throatsinging with metal and rock estethics greating something super unique
@@fredosinsemilla3896 it is because many greenlandic have lots of scandinavian genes. If you where to outside the larger cities people would probably look more like an inuit
@@eswarjuri I think the particular draw of The HU is that theyre a rock/metal band that incorporates traditional Mongolian folk instruments and Mongolian throat singing.
My top picks for places to visit and share with Geograpeeps: 1. Kamchatka, Russia 2. Patagonia/Tierra del Fuego (Ushuaia, Argentina) 3. The Hebredies, Scotland 4. L. Victoria, East Africa.
I'm gonna get pushback for this but I think it would be really cool if these guys represented Denmark at Eurovision. It'd be really cool to get the Greenlandic language at the contest and it would show a different side of Denmark at the contest than is typically seen. Plus their music is really good!
No pushback. That's an awesome idea. As a finn I would love Stam1na to represent Finland as we haven't had a song in our native language for a while and it's a bit annoying.
With the success Go_A had this year, I really hope more modern traditional bands get featured in eurovision. They're always my favorite including Keiino.
Barbs, ur personality and demeanor is impeccable. I love how like humorous u are despite having serious faces, u make these videos so enjoyable and I really appreciate it 🙇♂️
This whole video felt so magical, thank you for the opportunity of learning about a new place and a new type of music. I enjoy it so much and I'm definitely a new fan of Nanook.
Your videos have definitely made me want more and more to go to Greenland. I’ve been listening to a lot of Inuit folklore lately and stories. It’s impressive what a country they have built for themselves. Even if they are still under Denmark power.
Soooo insightful!! Fallen for Greenland 🇬🇱♥️ a suggestion for a new obscure destination… Yakutia in Siberia. Seeing as you love the Arctic & not so much is known of this part of the world and who lives there :)
Dude, you have got me super into Nanook the last couple years. They're like EXACTLY what I love in music. Little bit of Fleet Foxes, little bit of Angus Stone, a little bit of bright eyes with the bells and soft instrumentation, and even some Sigur ros in there. I love it. It gets hot here in Phoenix and sometimes I need that Greenlandic cool :) Ingerlaliinnaleqaagut is my favorite song for anyone interested in them
*nanook* it literally sounds Greenlandic,you would know they are from Greenland before barbs saying they are from there. Edit:thank you so much for the likes!
There's a really interesting museum near Jakobstad in Finland about Greenland exploration and history called Nanoq. Well worth the trip if you happen to be in the area.
Waouh! I had never seen Greenland this way. 🤩 I think Greenland will soon be in my favorite destination list. Thanks a lot, Barbs, for your exposé. It was so interesting!
I absolutely loved this episode!!! Thank you for sharing it with us. Will try the band and let you know 😊 lovely people and mirific place! This planet is AMAZING!!!
Definitely my favorite band!! Discovered them randomly a few years ago, and they've been accompanying me since. Saw them twice in Reykjavik while living there, and despite not understanding a word, I was completely absorbed! Hope to see them again sometime soon, maybe in my hometown of Montréal! There are lots of urban inuit down here **shrug**
Absolutely loved this! Would love to visit Greenland one day, will we see GN videos on overseas territories (Greenland, Gibraltar etc) once the UN countries have been done? Keep up the amazing work, you’re so lucky to get to travel the world. 🇬🇱
The history of Nanook reminds me of one rock band from my homeland (the Basque Country) called Berri Txarrak. They were active from 1994 to 2019 and ended touring around the world (through many places in Europe and USA, to Japan, including South America and even Oceania) only singing in basque. Only the ones who understand basque really understood their lyrics, however they were quite succesfull even in the rest of Spain. They even had a collab with a more well known band, Rise Against. Thanks Barbs for sharing Nanook to the rest of the world! They surely gained another follower here for singing in its own language
Alien Weaponry does something similar too. They’re a New Zealand metal band with songs in the native Maori language and they’ve toured around the world! A shame Keith didn’t get to talk about it in the New Zealand episode
Greenland looks such like an amazing place! Thank you so much for the video! By the way, you should definitely come and visit Yakutsk, the coldest city on Earth! ;) They also have their own culture and language and it sounds like a place you would enjoy visiting!
I've wanted to go to Greenland for 10 years, finally got the chance to go a few months ago. It was absolutely amazing and an experience of a lifetime. Nanook's music was so fitting with the scenery. Solo hiking on the trails of Ilulissat while listening to Nanooks Ilissinnut is a memory I will never forget. Glad you guys got to hang out in Greenland together, an absolutely breathtaking place to be!
I can’t imagine Nanook’s music in any other language. The sounds of the language fit so beautifully into their instrumentation to create a truly unique and haunting experience.
The tropical music contrasted with frigid temperatures smash cutting to a rare on-camera Barbs F-bomb as you freeze is some of the best editing you've done.
In 1994 I watched a free concert of Canadian First Nations music on the front lawn of the legislature in Victoria BC. The second to last act was Kashtin from northern Quebec who sang in their native Innu. They were followed by Susan Aglukark from Nunavut who sang some songs in English but also some in Innuit. Despite the similarity in language names they are not related.
LOVE NANOOK! I listen to them every day on my way to work, but Its crazy that I can’t speak Greenlandic and the music just bridges language and it’s so cool! 🇬🇱
Barbs, you are a good boy. I love that when Nanook said you could bring one guest, you automatically thought of your mom. Hurray for shameless mother lovers. Also, please keep doing videos about language and language preservation. Keep up the good work. I love you and your team. Keep up the good work!
If it’s safe to travel and open, Bulgaria really is a beautiful place, any time of year (we were there in May around the time all the roses bloom, and again right before Christmas when everything was covered in snow and it barely broke 2 degrees C during the day.)
18:51 Tangier Island, Virginia. Its a remote island in the chesapeak that has been basically cut off culturally and still supposedly has the accent of the original British Americans.
Barby, pls go to Moldova. The country is amazing , cuisine is magnificent, it's culture and history is rich and is is easily accessible for the us citizens. There are also a lot of volunteer projects out there.
not understanding the words makes absolutely no impact on loving the music. one of my favourite spotify playlists is full of songs I don’t understand - mongolian metal, punjabi hip-hop, cambodian pop, norwegian pagan folk, tuareg desert rock, gaelic folk, 70s zam-rock, aussie indigenous etc. - and now I shall add Nanook to the list - thank you for the intro. all that counts is whether the music moves you and you enjoy it.
my man, if you ever want to go back here then i suggest south greenland in the summer, either Narsaq, Qaqortoq or Nanortalik (these are the main cities of the south) of the 3, i recommend Qaqortoq also because it is my hometown xD greenlandic people are VERY proud of what town they were born in, its very common to have some of your friends go to Narsaq from Qaqortoq or from Nanortalik to Narsarsuaq for just a few days and back because they want to be home.

Pls visit Pakistan one time, even speghetti road is visiting Islamabad and lahore :)
What
Can you do geography now Thailand please
Its basically how a big portion anime community can't understand japanese
Greenland seems interesting love to go there one day
Please do "The Hu"
The Mongolian metal group. I don't understand their song, but hering them gives me some amazing feeling.
You can check out Bloodywood. They are an Indian folk metal band and have played at Wacken in 2019. I hope you like them. Most of their songs have a message behind them which they speak about at the end of the videos. Jee Veeray is about fighting depression and my favourite. You can also check out Yaad if you like pets.
Myrath is another metal band from Tunisia who are equally awesome. I don't understand them but I love them nonetheless.
Wolf Totem is a good song, both with the papa roach feature and without
YESS!!! Another The Hu fan!!! I love them.
Omg finally someone who recognizes The Hu!
I know the Hu from Jedi Fallen Order
I have no idea how it would happen but this makes me wanna see him do a similar thing with The Hu. They are like the Mongolian version of this, mixing traditional Mongolian instruments and throatsinging with metal and rock estethics greating something super unique
I think he mentioned them in the Mongolia episode.
@@GobbiExists no he didn’t sooo... yea
Yeah The Hu is also awesome!
Huge fan of the Hu.
except they commercial as fuck, better check out tengger cavalry! more down to earth people
Being one of the 60.000 people that speaks the language feels like being part of an exclusove club.
Also born and raised in Nuuk :)
But where are the Eskimoes? I only see larping Danes.
@@fredosinsemilla3896 it is because many greenlandic have lots of scandinavian genes. If you where to outside the larger cities people would probably look more like an inuit
@@fredosinsemilla3896 also Eskimo is a slur, the proper term would be Inuit
@@sheikhalfihri everything is a slur today
Guess the title of the video is inaccurate for you.
Nuuk is a place that I would really like to go to in the future. It looks beautiful.
Mm, thats nice but i dont think you should do that, for the sake of greenland
@@katarina9064 why? its not bad to visit
@@craftah people will ruin it we greenlanders dont want it to be ruined anymore
@@katarina9064 r u even from Greenland?
@@craftah yeah?
if you like nanook, you should check out The Jerry Cans. They’re from nunavut in canada. they sing in inuit.
Na Nuke
YES that’s exactly what I was going to say! LOVE The Jerry Cans!!!
Do not forget the HU ... they sing in Mongolian. Extreme cool band. Love their music.
Here's my home native's Alena Murang from Sarawak, Borneo island, she sings in Kelabit, one of the native Dayak languages.
@@eswarjuri I think the particular draw of The HU is that theyre a rock/metal band that incorporates traditional Mongolian folk instruments and Mongolian throat singing.
Damn these guys are so cool
It's also interesting that there's still parts of Greenland that aren't explored
Just like me hiking the same trail trying to discover some other pathway.
Greenland is a great candidate for real estate too.

Drunk Barby’s midnight sun sandwich run was pretty funny.
I wasn't expecting to see Barby drunk today but I'm glad I did.

It'd be really cool to get the Greenlandic language at the contest and it would show a different side of Denmark at the contest than is typically seen. Plus their music is really good!
Was literally just about to comment this, it would be so awesome to have a Greenlandic song in the contest
No pushback. That's an awesome idea.

@@kevintan6618 yeah
@@kevintan6618 was waiting to find a comment referring to KEiiNO.
2:40 I just love how the Hawaii Island music comes in, with small ice clumps in the water :P
You got heart:O
I would say Caribbean Calypso music.. but yes.. I also love that part!
That’s not Hawaiian. Sounds like steel drum Caribbean.
Yep.
10:59 Ha! Greenland is actually green my dudes
especially the southern part which is where the Norsemen first arrived.
Erik the Red is laughing right now.

Thanks a lot, Barbs, for your exposé. It was so interesting!
I really like this style of videos. Maybe when you finish all the countries, you make more videos like these :)
That's the good thing about Folk Metal for example. I never understand the lyrics but yet the music is still enjoyable.
Like so many others, this video is a true inspiration, thank you.
I loved how u covered EVERYTHING! From not only the band, but the land, cuisine, architecture, people, art, and language! 👌🏻
I absolutely loved this episode!!! Thank you for sharing it with us. Will try the band and let you know 😊 lovely people and mirific place! This planet is AMAZING!!!
Definitely my favorite band!! Discovered them randomly a few years ago, and they've been accompanying me since.
Saw them twice in Reykjavik while living there, and despite not understanding a word, I was completely absorbed! Hope to see them again sometime soon, maybe in my hometown of Montréal! There are lots of urban inuit down here **shrug**
YEAH!! GEO GO IS BACK!!! IVE BEEN WAITING SOO
LONG FOR THIS DAY!
This was so fun! Thanks for putting this together and sharing your experiences there in Greenland. I definitely have to visit some day!
This episode was just begging for Florida-man Keith!
"Hey Paul, do you want to come to Greenland to..."
Paul: "YES"
Absolutely loved this! Would love to visit Greenland one day, will we see GN videos on overseas territories (Greenland, Gibraltar etc) once the UN countries have been done? Keep up the amazing work, you’re so lucky to get to travel the world. 🇬🇱
A GEOGO episode was long overdue and a round 2 of Greenland was awesome.. Great job barbs.. Keep it going brother..
The way he feels about the Arctic is how I feel about Siberia
Me too
Siberia is part of the Arctic
Just listened to their songs via Spotify, indeed their songs are awesome! Keep it up guys!
Fun fact: Nuuk has a golf course, imagine playing golf for only 2 months each year.
Edit: they also have football in Greenland. 16:01
I love listening to Nanook!! Hi from a fan from the Philippines! (Fan for both Nanook and Geography Now)
In case you do not know, we have many from there working here in Greenland
the production quality of this video is so great. please do more of this!
you are a really good travel vlogger!! Please make many of these videos! Somewhere in Africa could be cool to see you explore!
The history of Nanook reminds me of one rock band from my homeland (the Basque Country) called Berri Txarrak.

Basque and Greenlandic are similar in the fact 99% of Americans can’t pronounce a word of it
I looked up this band after your recommendation years ago... I love them! I listen all the time
WoW thank you so so much for this great video ! Completely blown away ! You made my day and love my love to your mum
Heaps of love from France 🇫🇷
Thank you for this suggestion. I am always in search of new music to listen to
Alien Weaponry does something similar too. They’re a New Zealand metal band with songs in the native Maori language and they’ve toured around the world!
A shame Keith didn’t get to talk about it in the New Zealand episode
Greenland looks such like an amazing place! Thank you so much for the video!
By the way, you should definitely come and visit Yakutsk, the coldest city on Earth! ;)
They also have their own culture and language and it sounds like a place you would enjoy visiting!
Ooh new stuff very nice
Really well done, Paul.
You made another great video 👍🏻 and really missing my second homeland, and yes Greenland is the most magical place on earth ❤️🇬🇱❤️
amazing video, calming and peaceful, pleasing to eyes and ears
We might not know if the band *swears in greenlandic.*

Fantastic video Paul.. nice to help promote the guys from Greenland.
Hope to get there one day and listen to them also
6:10 How Nestle gets their water to sell back for free.
This is why I want to travel the world and see things I can't see in my own country. This is amazing and thank you giving us a glimpse of Greenland
Still hoping against hope that somehow Barbs can get a hold of Sabaton for the Sweden episode
Thanks Barbs! I need to listen to these guys now!
13:20 Remember that in the summer months, the light never goes out when you are in places like Yukon and Greenland
Well in the southern part of Greenland the sun goes down in summer. A part of Greenland (including Nuuk) is south of the artic circle
I love the band and I love your channel. Awesome to see you guys come together! Thank you!
I knew Greenland looks good but I didn't know it's this incredible, it's insane how there's icebergs right off the shore.
This is an awesome vid! Glad to see places I've been to and some good representation on an American channel
Cheers from up north!
Very good video
This deserves more views!
suddenly remembered this band existed so I looked them up - crazy that you just uploaded this video!
Nanook?
Sounds like nonook
Noot noot 🐧

Geography now's Greenland episode is the reason why I am in Greenland at the moment and exploring this vast beauty.
I just saw your recent short
Can't find it anymore
But I am from Ghana and just started watching this video
I want a drunken tour of every country by Barbs!
Then there should be a new channel called Touring Now!
Hahaha I loved the fact that you did take your mom. It's always nice to see this kind of things!
My favorite RUclipsr

Been a huge fan of these guys for years. I can sing every line of Ingerlaliinnaleqaagut. Not saying my pronunciation is right though haha
Im so happy pukuut was performing too!! I love pukuut!!!
Thank you so much for showing this, I'll check them out. I learn languages from music, so this will be a great on Greenlandic. Thanks barbs

This is awesome. Great content mr. Barbs, thank you!!!

I found myself crying and smiling when you panned the camera to your mum ❤❤
Awesome material!!! Congrats!
Back to the courses
Sigur Rós is another arctic band you can't understand, I highly recommend checking them out
my man, if you ever want to go back here then i suggest south greenland in the summer, either Narsaq, Qaqortoq or Nanortalik (these are the main cities of the south)
of the 3, i recommend Qaqortoq
also because it is my hometown xD
greenlandic people are VERY proud of what town they were born in, its very common to have some of your friends go to Narsaq from Qaqortoq or from Nanortalik to Narsarsuaq for just a few days and back because they want to be home.
I hadn't watched a video of yours in a while, but the crossroads of geography + music would be an amazing channel for me, at least.
What a nice video. Thanks for sharing with us!
Because I’ve seen your videos about countries I can name lots of countries around the world lol am known as a geography master in my school 😃
Samee here
I've been listening to this band since I was around 11. Even though I don't speak Greenlandic, I love the sound !
Awesome video! Now i feel homesick D:
