Dragonfyre137 Great, then you should't have a too hard time learning som norwegian either since they are very similar except for mostly the vocabulary. The same can be said about danish, but regarding faroese and icelandic that would just be speculations on my part to claim any similarities.
The song has english lyrics as well. Titled "When spirits are calling my name". Roger Pontare, the guy who comes in at the second verse, performed it in the eurovision song contest final of the year 2000.
This song is hard to translate to English fully, maybe to German would be more appropriate, but in English is a bit soft and meaning is almost vogue. However the original Roger Pontare song in English for Euro Song was a bit censured not to be so much nationalistic and it lost its punch. I am not a specialist in Skåne and Svenska language but this is my understanding of this song in the Manowar style. BTW it took me an hour and the half to translate, I would love someone from Sweden to tell me on a scale 0-10 how I scored. I was in the darkness and I couldn't see the light even tho everything was fast surrounded by fire in the light of the flames, there was my hope and the faith that swirled away and disappeared So give me my strength give me power to defend my land show me the way to go I see the ax in the warrior's hand If you want me to turn around and fight for what I am I would never betray my land, when the *winds are calling my name The rain had to fall my sadness to hide and to quench my burning thirst by the dawn I've fled to the mountains then suddenly I"ve heard the voice Wind are whispering I can hear them calling my name now I know my way to go I see the ax in the warrior's hand If you want me to turn around and fight for what I am I would never betray my land, when the *winds are calling my name *Wind is a tool of the spirits in communicating with mortals and priests in pagan rituals so you can also say "when spirits are calling my name" and that is the nature of the song.
Roger Pontare(the guy with the feathers who originally sing this song) should join a metal group, his voice would match just fine. Good version by Hammerfall.
TheBranchez I could translate this, I'd love to do that to every swedish song I love but youtube hasn't made it possible to submit subtitles to videos like there was rumored to be eventually. If I put videos up myself some kind of "copyright infringment notice" would probably nail my ass, or I get advertising on "my" videos despite I don't want them there.
Mötte Roger i en mörk gränd i Ume en gång.. Jag hade sovit på en parkbänk... Han är 2 meter hög och kom ut från studion .. Vi ba tja! mötet sa allt som kan inkluderas- Tja! he funger..
It's a song about how he will never betray or let down his country when the winds whisper his name. So, the chorus goes: "Do you want me to turn around and fight for who I am. I'll never let my country down, when the winds are whispering my name." And in the wind he hears the spirits, I reckon, hence the English translation; "when the spirits are calling my name".
helt underbart ! det är så häftigt när pontare ta den där höga tonen i slutet. den mannen kan sjunga ! o med hammerfalls komp o sång så blir detta en tidlös klassiker
Sweden rocks!!! I'm sorry I don't speak Swedish, (but most of you know English, so I write in this language), and for me, aside from Roger's headdress, the best part was when we are at the start of the video, seeing the guys drum kit- that must have 60-70 pieces! Amazing- Metal died in America and the UK, but Scandinavia keeps it alive. Skoll!
Trodde ALDRIG att man skulle få se hammerfall och pontare spela tillsammans men jag är ett riktigt Hammerfall fan och jag gillar pontare mycket också så 1000,5 tummar upp på den här!!! =D
ChipsHandonJr Might be because youtube didn't have 480p and above in 2006, and people didn't bother uploading videos in higher resolutions because of that. Who knew google would buy youtube, enable 4k resolution at 60 fps and the new VP9 codec, and in the future VP10?
Hammerfall is the reason why I started to learn swedish. What a fucking beautiful and epic language!
Dragonfyre137 Great, then you should't have a too hard time learning som norwegian either since they are very similar except for mostly the vocabulary. The same can be said about danish, but regarding faroese and icelandic that would just be speculations on my part to claim any similarities.
This song comes in english lyrics too you know. "When spirits are calling my name".
Dragonfyre137 men hallo der XD
Tack! Jag håller med dig😎
It really is not
Känns mäktigt när man ser hur Roger Pontare stiger upp o börja sjunga i andra versen
Men Cane följer upp bra!
"never will I fail my land, when the winds are whispering my name"
This is a crystalclear power metal song, so great hammerfall discovered that.
The song has english lyrics as well. Titled "When spirits are calling my name". Roger Pontare, the guy who comes in at the second verse, performed it in the eurovision song contest final of the year 2000.

I was in the darkness and I couldn't see the light
even tho everything was fast surrounded by fire
in the light of the flames, there was my hope and the faith
that swirled away and disappeared
So give me my strength
give me power to defend my land
show me the way to go
I see the ax in the warrior's hand
If you want me to turn around and fight for what I am
I would never betray my land, when the *winds are calling my name
The rain had to fall my sadness to hide
and to quench my burning thirst
by the dawn I've fled to the mountains
then suddenly I"ve heard the voice
Wind are whispering
I can hear them calling my name
now I know my way to go
I see the ax in the warrior's hand
If you want me to turn around and fight for what I am
I would never betray my land, when the *winds are calling my name
*Wind is a tool of the spirits in communicating with mortals and priests in pagan rituals so you can also say "when spirits are calling my name" and that is the nature of the song.
Älskar att ni står upp för Sverige.
Undra om det inte kan vara en kanditat till världens bästa musikstycke i världshistorien någonsin.
nej
@@Schnigel2 Varfrör inte?
Roger Pontare(the guy with the feathers who originally sing this song) should join a metal group, his voice would match just fine. Good version by Hammerfall.
Fan vad jävla häftigt!!!!
När Pontare stiger ut på scenen så spottar jag bärs över hela bordet!
Fett cool remake, sångaren från Hammerfall är bra och kombinerat med Roger Pontare är det ju fan otroligt!
One of the best performances. Wish I could've seen this live.
Lyssna på denna ca 5 gånger nu och sitter fan å skakar av rysningar! sån jävla Kraft!
Fyfan va bra låt... får serriöst gåshud varje gång jag hör denna. Så vitt jag kommer ihåg
fyfan vad legendariskt
Vänta... Hur är jag lära av det JUST nu?!?!? Det är fantastiskt!!!! Tyvärr, jag har aldrig hört det tills nu.
I don't understand a thing, but I fucking love this song!
TheBranchez Yes its good, the song title is: when spirits are calling my name
TheBranchez I could translate this, I'd love to do that to every swedish song I love but youtube hasn't made it possible to submit subtitles to videos like there was rumored to be eventually. If I put videos up myself some kind of "copyright infringment notice" would probably nail my ass, or I get advertising on "my" videos despite I don't want them there.
+TheBranchez There are actually already translated lyrics, search on google.
+Robert Austad That might be a thematically fitting translation, but literally it means "When the winds whispers my name".
Carl Bernroth I know / jag vet, jag är själv svensk så
När jag såg det här på tv skrek jag visst till lite när Pontare dök upp på scenen. Fantastiskt mäktigt framträdande.. Ryser!
Fy fan va grymma dom är tillsammans.
Long live to Hammerfall, long live to Sweden and long live to metal from Spain!
\m/
I love hammerfall
I Love Hammerfall!!!!! Hammerfall forever!!!!!
Best band ever heard!!
bästa versionen
Mötte Roger i en mörk gränd i Ume en gång.. Jag hade sovit på en parkbänk... Han är 2 meter hög och kom ut från studion .. Vi ba tja! mötet sa allt som kan inkluderas- Tja! he funger..
It's cool to come from Finland and understand Swedish. I don't have to ask for translations :) Both countries have also the best metal bands ;)
Är egentligen inget fan av hårdrock, men detta är tamejfan en grym version !! :)
Den här versionen var faktisk fruktansvärt bra :)
Excelent song ! Greetings from Brazil!
Jösses...Pontare är en så stor sångare...Hammerfalls musik är perfekt..
them singers look and sound like father and son to me.... outstanding
I think it was a wonderful kombinatin of the artists in this song. I was a little surprised that it sounded so good.
It's a song about how he will never betray or let down his country when the winds whisper his name. So, the chorus goes: "Do you want me to turn around and fight for who I am. I'll never let my country down, when the winds are whispering my name." And in the wind he hears the spirits, I reckon, hence the English translation; "when the spirits are calling my name".
I love this.
HammerFall are amazing!

Roger P borde sjunga mer power metal, han passar ju perfekt till detta.
I don't understand Swedish, but I love the lyrics in this song, as well as the song itself.
två av mina favorit sångare tillsammans, AWESOME!
he is the person which sang the original song in the ESC, his name is Roger Pontare
Epic song!
and Hi from Belarus :)
Sweden rocks!!! I'm sorry I don't speak Swedish, (but most of you know English, so I write in this language), and for me, aside from Roger's headdress, the best part was when we are at the start of the video, seeing the guys drum kit- that must have 60-70 pieces! Amazing- Metal died in America and the UK, but Scandinavia keeps it alive. Skoll!
Keep on rockin' bro! :-)
Tack, vän! Ock du.
De nada, amigo! :-)
+Alexander Pataki Skål*

WOW!!! Vilken hit, helt underbar....
Fan, vad härligt!
2 Legender, utan tvivel.
13 år sen eller mer, men lever forfarande upp till erat namn. Ni är awesome
I know every word of this, in pretty good Swedish, And that is the closest I will ever get to knowing a different language. :P
Femton år senare, lika jävla kraftig. Forza Pontare och för i helvete Hammerfall!
No idea what they are singing about but love every note of it
Den här låten och framför allt texten är så himmla METAL!!!
I have never wanted to go back to Sweden more in my life than I do right now. \m/
I stort sett aldrig, har varit typ halvt insatt i kanske två år...
Fast det var ju ett tag sedan jag såg dethär för första gången.
MYCKET BRA!!
Heja Sverige för alltid!! (:
Helt fantastisk :)
Grym bra på att sjunga på svenska som på engelska! LOVE HAMMERFALL! :-D
Они и на венгерском пели тему одну
I think this is the best song from hammerfall :D awsome :D
One of the best band evet (hammerfall) just love Joacims voice tougheter with Roger Pontare ^^
Fyfan va kraftfullt :D gillar det där skarpt.

Denna låt släpper jag ut min energi
Hammerfall Är Sveriges Bästa Metal Band
Hammerfall är det bästa hårdrocksbandet någonsin. Länge leve Power Metallen!

Så himla grymt bra
Det bör bli sveriges National sång. Så mycket hjärta till landet som är i denna underbara sång!
Har ingenting med nation att göra. Landet man försvarar är naturen, naturkrafterna forsarna, bergen regnet åskan etc och dess själ.
it hard to believe that this song is already 10 years old
hahah me looking at this comment like imagine this comment is 12 years old
hammerfall para siempre son los mejores
Mäktigt som fan!
Gåshud, fyfan va bra låt!
Dude... that gave me eargasms without hearing it!

Same here. Swedish w/ a Texas twang but I sing along all the way through it.
Mm Joakin Cans Äger allt fan!!!!
Hammerfall

Den är med på tribute skivan "Alla tiders Melodifestival" om jag inte har helt fel. Den finns oxå med på HFs cover album Masterpieces.
Cheers :-D
HERMOSA CANCIÓN!! (:

Epic..säger bara de..fan va bra
Skillnaden är att Hammerfall ALDRIG skulle glömmas bort, skiter i om dem skulle lirat i ESC, hade varit något att tittat på och varit glad!
240p, we meet again...
ChipsHandonJr Might be because youtube didn't have 480p and above in 2006, and people didn't bother uploading videos in higher resolutions because of that. Who knew google would buy youtube, enable 4k resolution at 60 fps and the new VP9 codec, and in the future VP10?
Super song!!!
Sjukt snyggt gjord!
God I love this song. ^ ^
Awesome!!!
They should have had an explosion at the end though =)
watched-liked-favourited-downloaded-played at funeral!
LOVE
