"Be good, for goodness sake" is more impactful when you think of Krampus coming to town, rather than Santa... Great song, Karliene! Spooky, but still lighthearted enough for younger listeners.
Ok, so to summarize, you've basically managed to create a song that is spooky, with a magical touch, with haunting harmonies, with a Celtic echo, with something of a soft epic atmosphere, a bit folky, very addictive, and about Christmas. You've officially made me like a "Christmas song". 🤍 Is it necessary at this point to even mention how amazing you sound on top of all? 🩶
Great song, brings back childhood memories, even though I was shit scared of Krampus when little, especially when we were visiting Family in the Bavarian Alps and Krampus was on the lose in the streets and at Christmas Markets. Also the Lederhosen didn't really help when one got a birching. I think this must be now the third song about Krampus that you can find on RUclips. I enjoy them all.
@Miri-chan21 We have Perchta too at the annual Perchtenlauf together with the Waldschrat, just no Krampus. Does Krampus do anything special during the run?
@lexa2310 So with us (near Munich) it is the case that the Krampus and as such he is also called asks small children if they were really good and well-behaved this year, most of them then nod eagerly and Krampus then becomes gloomy and asks if this is also the case, later he is stopped by St. Nicholas who mildly says that this is already in his list whether they were good or not. Usually Mrs. Percht comes at the end. At least with us in Upper Bavaria. How is it with you?
@@Miri-chan21 With us Krampus only comes with Nikolo when Nikolo knocks on your door and asks to be let in and given a warm place to rest a bit before he continues his journey. Its pretty much the same dynamic as with your Krampus it seems, just not during the Perchtenlauf. Perchta just runs with the Perchten, she has no really designated spot (that im aware of at least), and every group has their own Perchta and/or Waldschrat so there are multiple of them.😅 Its really interesting how those two things developed so differently, though I wish they would let Krampus run with our Perchten too since the Nikolo-Umzug with only Krampus and Nikolo seems to slowly vanish more with every year.
It's funny how it's dark and Krampus tself is one of symbols of toxic parenting of past which is clrealy visible in lyrics, but I can't feel differently than refrain being Krampus advertising himself. 20/10 villain song
Morning, Karlienne! You must came to Austria. The Krampus came by us not on christmas!! He came on the 5-6 Dez with the Nikolaus. The childs, what was all the year nice get gift from the Nikolaus, the Bad one get same butches from the Krampus. Sorry, für my bad english, but i hope, you anderstand what i write. Wish you much luck and much more health. ND ❤❤
This was my first time listening to you, and after discovering your channel, I couldn't stop! I’ve already filled my playlist with so many of your songs. Your voice is incredibly soothing, and the harmony is simply beautiful. I’ll definitely keep coming back for more!
I am in the USA. I saw this was premiering but it was after 2:00am, so I am grateful that someone did this kind of song. Happy Holiday Season to US all. I celebrate Yule and Winter Solstice or Summer Solstice in Southern Hemisphere. Blessed BE! AHO! Mazzy "Golden Eagle" #1111
It's so cool that some of the lesser known creatures of mythology are getting some recognition in the media. I even heard that the movie Krampus is getting a sequel.
Yeah....but krampus doesn't come with a sleight nor does it come on christmas. Its nice they receive recognition but in the process the actual mythology gets muddled.
@lexa2310 tell me about it, same thing is happening with my homelands mythology, plus some traditions forgotten like Yulegoat and the giving of porridge to the Gårdstomten.
Oh thanks again oh wonderful artist and as always appreciate seeing the lyrics who knows maybe our loup garu down here in the backwoods of Louisiana is really krampus! Wonderful as always thanks for the moment of peace - hopper from Louisiana
Love this song! Eventhough I grew up in Germany, I have no childhood memories of St. Nickolaus's whicked counterpart but I love his myths all the more as an adult
The thing is...everyone has done a mischievous thing from time to time but that's not the same as actually BEING a naughty person. Krampus strikes me as someone who'd visit the REAL wretches of the world; the Bart Simpsons, Stewie Griffins and Sheldon Planktons
Love this, a great song, from the talented Karliene, hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year, look forward to hearing more from you in 2025 👍👍
It is so facinating to think that in other european countries there was an evil goatentity attatched to christmas while in sweden we had a nice goatentity called the christmasgoat/julbocken that came with presents up till around the end of the 1800s & the beginning of the 1900s when the royal family started to introduce Santa Clause to the swedish population. Now days his legacy are small goatstatues made in straw/hay that we put up around the home during christmas & the big christmasgoat that almost always gets vandalised & burned down before christmas is done, it has become something of a tradition every year to bet on how long the great christmasgoat gets to stand before someone succed in burning it down.
Another great track - epic and captivating! Would you consider entering ESC representing UK? Your beautiful folk sound is always very captivating and your voice is stellar!
I'm sorry, but even with your haunting voice and scary lyrics the refrain sounds like it's happy song cheering Krampus XD 20/10, Krampus would love it as his theme ❤
Yeah well he came to us on the 6th of December or we came to him by visiting St . Nicolas, and yes he is a horror creature at least in Bavaria like all the demons that come at Rauhnacht. But still very exciting also for kids
I keep thinking one of these days she'll put out a song that isn't so great, but still no. Haven't heard one yet that I don't listen to several times right away.
"Be good, for goodness sake" is more impactful when you think of Krampus coming to town, rather than Santa...
Great song, Karliene! Spooky, but still lighthearted enough for younger listeners.
More like be good for your own sake when Krampus comes to town.
I am one hundred percent certain this woman is a siren. I've never heard such a haunting voice before
I'm usually a Grinch for Christmas songs but this one is going on the list of approved songs, please add to Spotify

A Krampus song? Awesome! Looking forward to hearing it 🎶

Those were probably Perchten then though, not Krampus.But they look similar enough.😅
@lexa2310 That's only half true, in Bavaria there is also a Krampus who runs with the Perchten. Always behind him is Mrs. Percht.
@Miri-chan21 We have Perchta too at the annual Perchtenlauf together with the Waldschrat, just no Krampus. Does Krampus do anything special during the run?

It's not often you here a dark christmas song, but it's very in character of Karliene, to release one ;)
I love it! Thank you so much

This is an appropriately haunting song for the unsettling figure that Krampus is. The artwork works well to covey this too. Well done 👍🏼♥️

karliene is one of the best singer ! and a song on krampus its just the best ommg , Merry krampus to all ❤
This was my first time listening to you, and after discovering your channel, I couldn't stop! I’ve already filled my playlist with so many of your songs. Your voice is incredibly soothing, and the harmony is simply beautiful. I’ll definitely keep coming back for more!
A song truly worthy of the great Krampus! Well done, and thank you!
finally a proper christmas song to listen to on christmas
YES! two of my fav things! Karliene's music and Krampus!!!
One of the best songs of 2024. Thank you Karliene!
From darkest night and the swirling snow he comes.. 😱😉👍🎄Merry Christmas, Karliene!
Merry Krampus to you :)
My favourite Christmas song you've done so far
holy shi.... this is amazing. I think this is my new favorite Christmas song. As the kids say this is the bees knees.
I am in the USA. I saw this was premiering but it was after 2:00am, so I am grateful that someone did this kind of song. Happy Holiday Season to US all. I celebrate Yule and Winter Solstice or Summer Solstice in Southern Hemisphere.
Blessed BE! AHO! Mazzy "Golden Eagle" #1111
Spooky Christmas Carol this is!
I love it!
Excellent as always. Love your music so much. ❤
Damn. That refrain really hits after that slow, calm melody beforehand.
It's so cool that some of the lesser known creatures of mythology are getting some recognition in the media. I even heard that the movie Krampus is getting a sequel.
Yeah....but krampus doesn't come with a sleight nor does it come on christmas. Its nice they receive recognition but in the process the actual mythology gets muddled.

Szuper!!!❤❤Nagyon Szeretem a munkáid❤
Yes this must be awesome! I'm excited!
Beautiful song
I love the legend of Krampus! Great song!
About the best song I heard lately, I also adore the Krampus aspect (granted I like grim)
Also the vocal! The voice is just perfect
Oh thanks again oh wonderful artist and as always appreciate seeing the lyrics who knows maybe our loup garu down here in the backwoods of Louisiana is really krampus! Wonderful as always thanks for the moment of peace - hopper from Louisiana
YES you just made this holiday season perfect!! ❤️😈
Well, I know what I'll be listening to on repeat today. 😁 Awesome song, as always, Karlienne. Merry Christmas! 🎄🎄
Now this is how you start the week, bravo
Wow what a beautiful song to wake up too❤️❤️❤️
The perfect Christmas song
I like your "mystic" and "dark" songs
Compliments indeed on her talent!
This was awesome... Thank you...
Superb work as usual, greetings from Mexico. Happy holidays and best wishes for you and your family
Love this song! Eventhough I grew up in Germany, I have no childhood memories of St. Nickolaus's whicked counterpart but I love his myths all the more as an adult
It usually only comes with the Nikolo, never on its own, so Im not surprised.😅
How beautiful yet terrifying! I have never heard of this Krampus, and I think I am glad I didn’t as a child.! 😳😳
Need this on my Yule playlist like yesterday!
Yay a new one! ❤
Wow!
Love it 🧡
Fabulous song. Be good kids, or else!
Dark Yule is the best 💚🖤
The thing is...everyone has done a mischievous thing from time to time but that's not the same as actually BEING a naughty person.
Krampus strikes me as someone who'd visit the REAL wretches of the world; the Bart Simpsons, Stewie Griffins and Sheldon Planktons
If Kate Bush and Within Temptation had a baby, we'd get Karliene.
Cool song .. Great Idea .. Well Done .. Thanks :)
Love this, a great song, from the talented Karliene, hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year, look forward to hearing more from you in 2025 👍👍
I love it! 😍💝

That really is kind of cool and weird. I wonder how those two evolved.
Gracias
Very good 😊😊😊😊 bort the fillm
Exscellent =)
Wow i love this song 🖤🖤🖤🖤😱
So exciting! My dance group "spellbound Dancing Witches" just performed at a Krampus Market this weekend! How fitting! ❤❤❤
Oh, how cool!
That sounds like so much fun
❤
Wow. That was AMAZING!!!! One thing tho. I thought you were gonna say Krampus again at the end there. That would’ve been perfect to end on
I'm praying I get to see you live in Paris one day
ho ho ho merry christmas
Another great track - epic and captivating! Would you consider entering ESC representing UK? Your beautiful folk sound is always very captivating and your voice is stellar!
❤❤❤
Everyone fears the mighty Krampus ..... :D
I'm sorry, but even with your haunting voice and scary lyrics the refrain sounds like it's happy song cheering Krampus XD 20/10, Krampus would love it as his theme ❤
I have German Heritage and I am purely *terrified* listening to this
Yeah well he came to us on the 6th of December or we came to him by visiting St . Nicolas, and yes he is a horror creature at least in Bavaria like all the demons that come at Rauhnacht. But still very exciting also for kids
Wait for Malanka next 🙂
Good
Oh, very nice song!
Only one little thing that bothers me: There is no real relation between Krampus and Christmas besides both being in December.
And I have never heard Krampus sporting sleight bells...or a sleight.😅
You should do one about Gryla and the Yule Lads too
I'm Eastern European descendant so this effects me
😃

Hit the 444 likes, what a wreck 😅
I love karliene, but it bugs me when artists give dark folklore the cartoonish celtic women/g-rated/disney treatment
