LYRICS BELOW:
Þetta mun aldri enda því at ek vil meirr
Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr
Þetta mun aldri enda því at ek vil meirr
Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr
Ef ek hefði hjarta ek gæti elska þik
Ef ek hefði rödd ek myndi syngja
Eptir nóttina er ek vaki upp
Ek mun sjá hvat morgin komar
Ef ek hefði rödd ek myndi syngja
Dangla fett frá vindaugi ramma
Mun ek alltaf alltaf ná gólfið?
Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr
Mullið ok fyllt með allt ek fann
Undir ok inni bara at koma í kring
Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr
Ef ek hefði rödd ek myndi syngja
We appreciate you too👊
You should totally do "One Ring them All" from Lord of the Rings
Suggestion Joli Rouge by The Dreadnoughts!
Brilliant Colm🌹
When is it on Spotify so i can listen on repeat until i die?
This version > everything
YES
Hey it's Canadian Mountain-Queen-Rachel Hardy!
@The Sailor dude just shhh
You should learn old norse
@The Sailor correction
This version >= everything
Colm has literally the greatest vocal range I’ve heard in my life. He’s a tenor, baritone, and bass all in one...and how many instruments does he play???? I play piano, banjo, and accordion and here this dude can play guitar, banjo, accordion, bouzouki, cello, probably piano, and the 3-string medieval thing. Lol. Colm’s a world class musician.
Colm does NOT play piano, despite having multiple music degrees. He has to enter piano notes one at a time in a time consuming & tedious fashion!
The “Three string medieval thing” is a tagelharpa 🙂
Geoff Castellucci would give him a run for the money on straight voice, but Colm has him beat hands down on the instrumental mastery!
Some people are just built different
You're too kind, friendo! Also side-note: I cannot play piano, I'm so bad at it haha
As someone who accidentally found out how to throat-sing while singing along, alone in my car, I can say: that shit's hard, this man is a legend.
Teach me
@@maxwilson7001 while vibrating your voice, you gotta dig deep and push from the very bottom of your chest cavity. Adjusting your mouth shape and tongue position to get the right tone. As a smoker, it was hard af just to get in tune for a couple verses.
so i'm not the only one who sings in the car...
@@Ganpignanus yeah no. Apparently it's an ADHD thing. Almost involuntary. But I'll start out just casually mouthing the words to a chill song, until it starts to pick up pace, and then 10 minutes later I'm screaming along to Rammstein at full volume, getting all of the pronunciation down while not speaking more than 3 words of German. While headbanging and tapping my foot so hard the whole car is visibly rocking.
@@maxwilson7001 Start by humming on low tone and start moving that humming towards back of your mouth the throat and finally to your chest. You can feel the vibrations moving and then you know you are singing with your chest cavity, instead of your mouth. Cant really explain it better and i'm just learning my own as well. The best singers can do 3 sounds at the same time, singing from their chest throat and mouth at the same time, but i have no idea how the hell they can manage that when one or two is bloody difficult and cant really develop distinct tones like they can.
HIGH school choir never let us sing this with this passion and colour! WOW
Ever considered an Old Norse version of "Valhalla Calling Me"? I feel like your voice would lend itself very well to that song.
I second this that would be amazing
@colm
Oh my God, please.
Check out Payton Parish. His rendition is amazing! ⚔️🛡️👍❤️
Please
Well, that goes into my DnD playlist. Epic performance.
Your campaign is gonna be so Nordically lit haha
Bard: I use Inspirational!
DM: Roll for initiative.
Bard: Nat 20!
@@asurasyn It's so inspirational the barbarian completely pops off
Definitely has the "tribe of Goliaths singing before battle" feel to me.
Same! :D
As a Swede. I absolutely love the fact i can hear the initial lyrics. "Giv mig mer" aka; Give me more wich is the lyrics of the English song.
This is pure perfection and my Swedish ancestors raise the horn to you.
tbh all germanic languages are similar, Giv mig mer, or give me more, Gib mir mehr, geef mij meer.... its way too similar
In Scotland, the word for more is pronounced mair 😊
@@kilimonsta Yupp. Wasn't putting monopoly on the words. Just sharing my own experience. And Swedish is part of the Germanic language tree so it makes all the sense. :)
Sounds way closer to German top compared to the English version
@@bloochoob same in German.
high German : Gib mir mehr
low German : GEW mir mehr
Freddie Mercury: has the most varied vocal range for decades
Colm McGuinness: hold my jumper
Then saith the Lord, "Let there be bass!" and Colm McGuinness began to sing...
and the waters filled with fish 😀
His vocal chords aren't normal...They're exceptional.🤔
Don’t you mean then Bragi said, “I shall bestow mankind with epic songs!” And then Colm was born?
You mean Odin?
And with a Loud Voice 333
This is metal af. I suddenly grew a beard and wanted to go raiding. I could hear the sound of axe on shield.
Lmao. Well put
I had chills already, but I got more when you went up high, then was shocked when you went higher!!
I was like "What is his range?! The Milky Way?!" XD
The entire Known universe
The multivrsa and beyond
@@jmw61289 So, the Outerverse?
@@aaronalkor The Outer Wilds
Electronics?
Those are the manliest rolled R’s in history
I didn't realize a norse version of that song was missing...until I heard this. We needed this.
It was actually originally old norse
@@grebap A very spotty translation that's closer to modern Icelandic than actual reconstructed accurate Old Norse, with English word order on top. A+ for sound, C- for linguistic accuracy.
Such deep texture...shivers down my spine...
His voice is transcendent beauty
The hair on my back stood up. Wow just Wow.
I've loved this song for the longest time but this version Thank you.
that is absolutely stunning. just... atmosphere of this song is SO norse, that you can literally hear thunderstorm, falling rocks, cracking ice, roar of the coldest wind and smell of frost on a dark night somewhere on the coast of the northern seas.
thank you very, very much for this incredible work! and please, also stay so AWESOME. you're really one of a kind.
Beautiful imagery, you nailed it!
Thanks so much, friendo! Lovely scene there!
This music NEEDS to be used in American Gods!
Ahh yes, and flat shores and sandy beaches of mild and warm Denmark :3
Pretty flowers and sunshine :D
Tiny fjord horses whinnying in the background and Gunthram eating an apple from the orchard while whistling a cheerful tune!
Funny thing: The original version is more of a voodoo song. ^^
THIS. There are just no words in the English language to express how excited I am about this!!! It's going to be the most epic thing that I have ever heard. (In case it wasn't obvious, this is what I voted for in the poll.)
If you can’t find it in English try Norse! Everything sounds epic in that language lol See ya there!
have in Portuguese: DO CARAAAAI MEU PIRRAIA TIRA ONDA DEMAIS LANÇOU BRABA FI, PIKA
"virkelig en sanghistorie som utfordrer troverdigheten" is the closest I got.
There are words for it, but I don't know them.
Tried in Polish, German, Russian, French, Japanese and Arabic - none worked xD and I believe would be hard to find the right one hahah ;) Supposedly old Norse would be a bull's eye ^.^
50/50 Danish and Irish guy living in the middle of nowhere America here. I still have relatives in both countries and can understand at least the basics of the Norse languages. I don't know how you landed on my suggested lists a year ago, but your renditions of various Norse and Irish tunes are so good. Both a nod to the traditional renditions with your own twist are exactly what musicians respect in a cover/ recording. You deserve all the praise and success you have already achieved and still have coming to you. Thank you for reminding me of my grandmother's Irish tales (I believe of Kilkenny) and my Danish family in Kolding, Denmark. Keep on doing what makes you happy and the best in the future.
Love this Nordic version, it shakes the ground under my feet.....Absolutely brilliant.
Funny being Icelandic and understanding the whole thing.😂😂
If anyone wants the lyrics:
Þetta mun aldrei enda af því at ek vil meir.
Meir, gef mér meir, gef mér meir.
Þetta mun aldrei enda af því at ek vil meir.
Meir, gef mér meir, gef mér meir.
Ef ek hefði hjarta ek gæti elkað þig.
Ef ek hefði rodd ek mynda syngja.
Eftir nóttina er ek vaki upp.
Ek mun sjá þat (er?) morgin kemr?. (seems a bit dodgy translated)
Ef ek hefði rodd ek myndi syngja.
Dangla fet frá vindaugi ramma.
Agree, Impressive of him to do the whole thing in norse but yeah there are even more errors if you look closely. "Vaki upp" should just be "vakna" etc. Also "Ef ek hefði hjarta ek gæti elkað þig." is clearly just word for word translated as the order is very unnatural for us.
I've heard you guys can actually still read really old books (1200s?) no problem, so I'm not surprised. Very cool language you have there too. Thank you for the lyrics!
@@L3m0nate Yep, that's true. The difference between Icelandic and Old Norse is very minor and mostly comes down to minor spelling conventions, as well as coming off formal or old fashioned.
I dont speak icelandic or old norse. But i know they are different. Which is he actually singing in? Not many still speak languages like old norse, old english, old french and classical latin.
Nvm. Hes singing icelandic.
I ended up here by the classic "random youtube algorithm", but man, what an incredible voice and a great cover! gef mér meirr!
as a norwegian i can say this was really good.. shit i did not know about that there were someone that sang like this in norse and old norse =O
As Icelandic, I concur.
As a Dane... I do as well
As Swede im impressed
‘give me mair’ sounds very like Scottish too, showing how the old language overlaps. This is absolutely brilliant, what great rich deep voice 🥰
And in Germany we would say: Gib mir mehr :)
Geef me meer!
Gibb mi beer
I listen to the English version on repeat. Can't wait to hear you sing it like this 😃
As expected the cover did NOT disappoint at all! I had literal goosebumps from pretty much the beginning! Listening to this one on repeat as well ;)
9 hours ago I said I'd be here for the premiere, I made it, then Colm just straight transported us into the realm of Colm-Norse where he is Odin; and his voice wove it's magic. Returning to the normal realm seems bland by comparison to the realm of the Colmpany.
11/10 putting on repeat!
An Epic song sung by an Epic performer. Rowing rhythm and warrior growling song gives the mood only a skald would present.
Hahahaha I love this mental image! Cheers mate!
@@ColmRMcGuinness your works of music are a welcome to respite for some of your Kiwi (🇳🇿 New Zealand) fans who find ourselves living with a lockdown that may end in December if we are lucky. So I thank you again for sharing your talent with us all Colm, it truly is a respite in tough times.
I don't know what else to say except same. 😩😩😩
min 2:31 WHAT??? I am completely blown away by his vocal talent and range!!!! That was PHENOMENAL!!!
I believe this is the most beautiful and most powerful song I've ever listened to... Thank you Colm.
I'm absolutely speechless..
Ahhh this sounds awesome! My favorite version by far!
I don't know how it's written but the "Give me more" line in Old Norse sounds a lot like it would in German ("Gib mir mehr"). I just love how you can detect tiny similarities and see how languages are related to or influenced each other.
Danke, das habe ich mir auch gedacht 😂
Not sure if it's accurate, so take it with a grain of salt
In today's norwegian it's "gi meg mer"
Yea, I thought the same. It also sounds a lot like the Dutch "geef me meer"
Same, in Afrikaans/Dutch it's "Gee my meer".
This Norse songs are fantastic with his vocals, they keep me coming back. Would love an album of him just singing norse songs.
I found him a few songs ago. Happy new year 2023. I can feel his music in my bones. I love this man his range and annunciation is perfect. He's amazing I'm blessed to hear him. His voice is a gift.
it's really cool reading/listening to old norse and realizing how many modern english words come from it. you can understand more than you think
PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE put it on spotify. been waiting for 2 days ever since it came out and it's still not out yet D: This is highly addictive!
OMG IT'S FINALLY OUT YA'LL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TIME TO PUT IT ON REPEAT 9999999999X
'and now I want to listen to the English version again', 'and now I want to listen to the Norse version again', 'and now I want to listen to the English version again', 'and now I want to listen to the Norse version again', and repeat forever!
Dear Lord! This is epic. It’s got me looking for my axe and longship…
What the hell did I just listen to. I’m Greek and I just became a Viking for a short while…. This guy gave me chills!
isxuei
Holy shit I thought I loved the English version you did, and I DO, but this is my new favorite. You're freaking awesome. How do we get Wardruna to see this and do a collab with you? I would hit the roof.
1) Thanks so much for the kind words!
2) That would be amazing hahaha
or Skáld even honestly
@@vixtontitano2394 Heilung would be another awesome colab
How about all three?! I know that's probably hoping for too much but you never know right?
Wardruna is awesome in their own right, and a collab would be amazing, but based on this one performance, I'd say a collab with Fever Ray would be more appropriate!
He should definitely make more Norse covers. They sound amazing!
The wow factor of this song. Just wow, your vocal range, the climax, everything. In total awe, so powerful. I love it
This version is so powerful compared to the original. Original sounds lonely was fitting for Ragnars story’s but this sounds like Bjorn uniting everyone to fight the Rus
What a ‘great description’! I am still watching this series + am completely absorbed by the story + characters.
Hail Bjorn!
I'm 67 , lived a full life , would love to fight the Rus ... giv me mer , giv me mer !!!
@@rjwintl ну так в чём же дело?! 😏 Приходи, воюй! 😏 У нас места много, всем воякам всегда хватало - и шведам, и немцам, и французам! 😏 Так что, дорогие западные "друзья", приходите - встретим. Каждому "викингу" место найдётся. 😏
the limit is the software haahahah
The "My mother told me (Old norse)" was a banger, but NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO DO ANOTHER OLD NORSE COVER!!!
This is going to be awesome. I haven't heard it but respect fro trying it in old norse. I wished for this ever since you made the community tab giving this as an option. You're great
Coming from Celtic and Norse ancestors it reverberated to my soul. The cat came out to listen to it with me and I felt my ancestors filled the room. . A spiritual moment. Thank you.
Gives me chills.What a voice.Oh,my goodness.It can't be REAL.He's just too much...too much MAN.I must hear this everyday or night now.Where's he been hiding? 😍🤗
Your music makes me so happy. Coming towards the final days of my life. Your music brings me so much joy.
I hope so much it's not your really last days, bro)
❤️🙏❤️
Four and half minutes of massive goosebumps! Holy smokes! So beautiful!
I 10000% did not expect that voice. But my goooodness is this good.
I come back and listen regularly. Most powerful song ever sung by Colm.
It sounds eerie. Like something you'd hear in a haunted forest up north. Great performance
Rainy evening, on the way in a bar to have a nice night with my best friends, sitting in a bus and hear that Masterpiece.
Thanks for that
Oooh such vibes! Cheers mate!
Это просто невероятно!!! Спасибо Вам огромное за то, что несмотря на трудные времена, Вы находите время и силы, чтобы радовать нас своим пением :)
Согласна, Кольм прекрасен
приятно видеть здесь комментарии по-русски, а то я боялась что мы с братом одни такие
@@annamikheeva753 Не одни. 🙂🤝
Holy crow. You are one amazing singer! I’m blown away.
You have an absolutely incredible range. This cover is so perfect.
Holy ****! Jaw dropping version. Amazing. Can we, like, go raid a village now? 🔥🔥🔥
Eyyyyy it's game-music sensation, Julie Elven! This comment section is now blessed!
Those villages won't know what hit'em!
So, true! Jaw dropping, amazing! I had to subscribe to hear more 🐬💦
This cover has more heart than the other versions I've heard. Awesome!!
Simply unbelievable. I was redirected here from the Fever Ray original (of which I've been a fan for many years). But this voice... Thank you, Colm!!
Since you've been doing old norse-versions lately, how about doing your own cover of "Völuspa" by Wardruna? :>
Now THAT is a challenge! I'll give it a look!
YES PLS I'M SO READY FOR IT❤️
Āmen to that! I second. I would love to hear Colm perform that, indeed. 🤨😉
Yessss
I didn't want to ask 🥺
Maybe an unrealistic request, but I'd love to see you do a cover of any Heilung song. It would be great as just you or with a collaboration of some sort.
Gosh yeah their music is amazing!
I'm such a big fan of them, but I cannot do growls/heavy vocals at all, unfortunately. Loved the remaster for the Hellblade trailer
@@ColmRMcGuinness kardavox academy teaches those type vocals if you're interested in learning them.
@@ColmRMcGuinness Please, please, dear , we really need to hear you cover some of Heilung! 💜
This is pure magic. Absolutely love you. So grateful to have an opportunity to listen to you. Thank you for being you!
why the heck is this op legend so underrated!!!!!!
I literally can’t wrap my head around the fact that Colm improved the last Vikings cover..absolutely incredible❤️👌👌
This is the song of a rising culture. More give them more give them more. The old ways are being remembered and its wisdom is being realised.
This was so striking. It's as if the gods themselves were singing through you! It's rare that I feel faint, but that was awe inspiring.
I love hearing Norwegian, Swedish and Danish being spoken, there are so many little links to Scottish Gaelic and Doric.
Excellent pitch power and pace. Beyond this, appreciate my Wife's Nordic roots and culture. Thanks for spotlighting it here.
I remember back at a poll some weeks ago, I chose this. I knew it would someday become a reality! Once again, thank you so much Colm! This is gonna be epic! Liked before it starts!
Me too at all
Ayyy cheers, brother bear! The response to the poll was so good I had to do everything haha
@@ColmRMcGuinness One day I asked "Can we hear this in the future?" under the poll. You said "for sure!". Now that's the most wonderful thing my ears have ever heard in my life. Big thanks for it, cheers talented man!
I left this playing in my truck last night.
It is now a long boat...
There's something so comforting about this song to me.... I don't think I can describe the happiness this brings me
I don't know how I've lived for nearly 40 years without this song in my life.. it's incredible
I am so excited! I have a feeling it's going to be one of my favorites! I hope we can in the future hear sea shanties in different languages! I think that would be awesome!
Oooh would love to implement some Irish into one!
@@ColmRMcGuinness Or even a whole translation! I don't think there is enough fully Irish songs out there :,( It's so hard to find (at least on the youtube side of things as an American!)
@@ColmRMcGuinness AND SCOTTISH
Yasss let's go. Can't wait for this one; your first cover of this is one of my all time favs of yours and it can only go up from there, ha.
I may not be a professional but i can appreciate good singing when i hear one. Amazing job
One of these days they ought to have a Viking series with a theme song in old Norse. Especially one with a deep bellowing voice like this!
Damn, I am so glad Colm Mcguiness is stillgoing, and blowing my mind with every song he makes. I just can't stop listening to Colm's songs, because the talent and amount of effort he puts into making these songs, it's really shows howuch a true artist puts into each and everyone of their songs they make.
OMG 🥰
I've been bingeing Vikings for a few weeks now. This is exactly what I need today!!!💯
Never heard of you til now nor this version but this definitely is viking and Odin worthy.
So evocative! What a voice ...made for this language! And I love your gorgeous sweater!
no matter how many times I listen to this, I get goosebumps. absolutely amazing
Wowwwwwww. 😱 Those solid deep vocal notes alongside the low cello...! Chills. And the key change added just the layer it needed! Wow wow wow.
One of those voices that can cut mountains. Damn.
damn the range of his voice... and its giving me electric feeling from my back of my neck through my spie. wow
I cannot get enough of this, I want a lyric version already so I can practice for next year's Ullr-Vation festival here in the mountains.
And so the wait......begins
Santa Mãe de Deus!!!! Essa voz é mais tenebrosa que o som do trovão!
I cannot express how much I love this. It feels like my ancestors are reaching through time and squeezing my heart.
Also my children won’t listen to any other music, only Colm, all the time. 👍🏻
the english version is by far my favorite song, ive listened to it so many times, and i was pretty excited to hear the my mother told me in old norse, so seeing this was comming up, amazing!
26 April 2021: The English rendition from Colm! It's different, it's the same, you should have this on repeat for days! ruclips.net/video/oJLRNwmNn7o/видео.html VIKINGS - If I Had A Heart (Cover)
@@zippyman818 That version is my favourite song I have heard so far by Colm. I love how primal it sounds if that's a thing you can say. Like the sound he makes that to me sound like people marching. So good.
@@aabenhus small details that add to the overall effect! *talent*
i have not even heard this yet, but i am more than confident that this is a masterpiece.
As a parent of a cranky baby, I can say this song is a lifesaver. Calms the savage beast.
When you find out you have Scandinavian ancestry
Dude imagine if this song was played by a marching band as a stands tune that would be freaking insane
One can imagine a stadium of fans humming the rhythm here: ruclips.net/video/oJLRNwmNn7o/видео.html VIKINGS - If I Had A Heart (Cover)
Bro if that ever happened then I can't imagine how epic the game would be! Especially if they played during the game as well!
@@mikaylababjac9585 just imagine the team walking out as this song plays, the baseline ringing out over everything, the fans humming the rhythm, that would send chills down my spine
@@Joshlifts02 as an athlete that'd be freaking amazing!!! To walk out onto the court hearing that it'd be the best hype up in history 🤣🤣🤣
Holy crap. That’s all I have to say. The added instruments make it even more powerful than your original
Colm. I sent this to my son, who's a PhD in Germanic Languages and teaching at Heidelberg U, and he says you're spot-on with the Old Norse! Thought you'd like to hear that. BTW, "Valhalla Calling" ~ Do it like only YOU can!
Best Version ever! Most authentic!
You sir are a wealth of talent, can't understand the words but I feel the music in my chest everytime. The instruments and your vocals resonate with me. Even developed an interest in Gaeilge because of your cover of Oro se do bheatha 'Bhaile thank you
I love this! Your range is amazing and I keep getting chills, you've put a beautiful amount of emotion into your singing.
The Old languages are something else indeed Old English, Old Norse, Old Germanic languages in general holy shit they always sound good when sung with the best part being they are so related you can pretty much understand what they are saying
Skullcandy crusher evo + Colm McGuinness = literally feeling the presence of your Viking ancestors.
A rendition one wishes never to end.
holy crap i have not seen a singer with this much range in many moons
That is the deepest man's voice I've ever heard.
The bass in this guys voice can rattle bones, the whole this is amazing!
