Woohaa - thank you algorithm! I would never have expected to see Kent here. But... since you brought them up, I must encourage you to give them a chance. They are/were of the most beloved alternative pop/rock bands in Sweden for a decade or two. What you just watched was "only" a promotional video for their last album and farewell tour. It hits fans in the hearts because of the anticipation, all the visual references to previous albums, and the feeling of "finality" to one of the best scandinavian bands to a lot of people. Their songs are in swedish, and understanding the lyrics does elevate their songs. But don't let that stop you. They tried reaching a broader audience by translating two albums to english, but for some reason that didn't take off, and they gave up that idea for subsequent albums. Arguably, the swedish versions are a bit better since the english versions sound a bit forced and are sung with a slight accent. But its still a shame and probably down to bad luck, since their sound is really good, combining mainstream with more interesting and unique aspects. Some good songs by them: Socker, Dom andra, Sundance kid, 400 slag, Palace & main, Hjärta, Vals för satan (din vän pessimisten), 999, La belle epoque, Tänd på, ... Among the songs translated to english, I could recommend e.g. 747 (m.ruclips.net/video/2npGuZKdhgE/видео.html), Music non stop (m.ruclips.net/video/W3FEEENz-Us/видео.html) and If you were here (m.ruclips.net/video/cZB_r8TABX8/видео.html).
That was a really good summary of the band. To add some more amazing songs, mannen i den vita hatten, den döda vinkeln, Godhet, Förlåtelsen, Dom som försvann. If you guys give them a chance, you have a whole new world to discover. Amazing band!
This was an announcement for their last album, and final tour. A lot of the imagery is old album covers and places and things they've sung about. They're a Swedish band, but the Finnish flag are there because all of the band members had Finnish roots. The airplane is on the cover of the album Isola. The girl in the jean jacket is on the cover of Hangesta hill The white tiger is on Vapen och ammunition The guy on a horse is on tillbaka till samtiden Etc. It was a gift to the fans, filled with "Easter eggs"
@@TheUnderdogDe Parasta ennen 2016. (Fin translation of the title i guess) No but really, Swe and Fin culture are still in bed - making love. My grandfather was a "finnish war child". Many swedes volonteered to that fight, and i think the mentality is still "Finlands sak är vår sak". However, culturally, the language barrier creates some dissonance compared to the other neighbours. Which is ironic, in so many ways. As my granddad was from Fin, dad a born swede and my mom from the US, i find this scandinavia/nordic clash of cultures kind of cute and amusing. @mrviktorbajen needs to unstick that log up his ass though.
For many Swedes Kent is part of the nations culture and soul. So you can imagine the impact this video had as it marked the beginning of the end of an era for everyone that harbored those feelings. There's really no way for me to overstate the importance of this band to Swedes.
Eh. Not really. Kent hade no major impact to speak of. Not more then putting out bangers. They are more or less forgotten today. And they basicly just ripped of Broder Daniel anyway.
I've been a Kent fan since 2009 Kent made top list in Sweden on every album. 1st on every album when they were released. So Kent is very important in the Swedish and Finland's music industry. Same as Venom and Bathory laid the groundwork tones for Speed, Thrash and Black Metal. It's still sad that KENT quit their music. Kent is a half Swedish / Finnish band too.
listened to kent since 99 and from the states, end of an era for me as well. I've listened to broder daniel, I don't see the comparison except Kent's mid 90s creations
You have so much to catch up on to understand this. It brings together every album, the history, from small to big, a small band from a small town in northern Sweden, making it into the echoing streets of Stockholm. Their music describes life in all of its ups and downs. But vague enough to make every listener discover every song a bit different to anyone else. Kent has something special that I have never heard something even remotely close. Kent has 3 times as many Grammy awards than ABBA. 23 Grammys has been awarded to Kent songs. Kent, it has become and always will be with me.
The drummer isn't somebody with a lot of makeup. The drummer is Lady Death herself. Because the band was announcing their end. Many of the visuals were touchbacks to Kent's past albums and videos. "Sista Albumet" means "Last Album". "Sista Turnén" means "Last Tour". (I don't know Swedish but my wife does.) Maybe the most astonishingly good farewell ever.
Many of Kent’s songs are just like this video, it starts with just one or a few sounds and builds up to a crescendo in the end. Especially the song 747. I also love this video and I see it like a statement: they started small in the town Eskilstuna and their fan base grew bigger and bigger just like the followers in this particular video. Kent is my early adulthood ❤
Never a huge, huge fan of Kent, but this one, W O W, this caught me the first time I saw it. The audio and visuals are completely mesmerizing. When I rewatch it, and not the first or second time, i'm unsure if I ever saw something more alluring.
Your pronounciation was really good, Då Som Nu För Alltid=Then As Now Forever. This was how they announced their last album and upcoming tour when they called it quits as a band after 26 years as one of the most popular bands in Sweden. The video is also referencing a lot of their previous album covers so it's sort of like death is rounding up everything that's been and bringing it to closure.
It's kinda funny. The tunnel with blue walls, I drive that tunnel everyday to work. That railroad tunnel she comes out of, that's about 300 m from where I live. The street she walks down, I drive that road too. The air craft is at Bromma airport where I used to work.
I know what it's all about because I looked it up. This piece was kent's swansong. It was a promo for the band's 12th and last studio album. The video references numerous mores from the band's past...the snow, the aircraft, the white tiger, the dark haired girl running away, the blonde in white and the horse have all appeared in prior videos. The little drummer girl really was the band's drummer, though it's difficult to pin down her identity. The video was shot in Sweden but the band also performed live street marches in other towns without the horse but with the same girl on occasion. In my view, the power of the piece lies in every element of it being compelling. The rhythm's constancy reminds me of Ravel's Bolero but the layering of sound on sound makes it all the more mesmerizing. I certainly didn't hear an accordion. The basic drum track is joined by bass drum, guitars, synths, handclaps and a big choir. The layering also introduces effects including echo and a little phasing here and there. The central point is the skull make up that indicates that the band is dead. It' s important to realise that this isn't just a track, it's raison d'etre is twofold. It is both an anthem and a requiem for the band. Update: the drummer girl is called Linn Anita Nylund. There's another video with the same soundtrack and some shared footage. In this video, it's obvious that she is the woman on horseback and also the woman in white. Judge for yourself ruclips.net/video/96vnJ9Nxtzo/видео.html
Kent had/still have so many hardcore fans here in Sweden. Some early songs from them are: Om du var här (if you were here), Musik Non Stop, Kevlarsjäl (Kevlarsoul), 747, Utan dina andetag, Vinter 02, FF (the one playing at the end of the song ”Dom andra”) and Sundance Kid. I was a massive fan back in the day. Fun to see you react to them. Two albums were released in an english version, ”Isola” and ”Hagnesta Hill”. A lot gets lost in translation though and my foreign friends always prefered the swedish lyrics although they didn’t get it. But I think that it’s the melancholy sound that gets people to like them regardless.
Hi guys-- Here's the comment I posted on the original which according to the number of likes seems to explain it reasonably well... For those unfamiliar with this band-- this was the way Kent announced their finish-- the last album and tour as one of Sweden's most successful bands. I'm not a "Kent expert" although I did enjoy them so this is my take-- many of the shots are of previous album covers and songs (the plane, the tiger, the running girl, the woman on horseback, woman in the tunnel, the dogs, etc.) It's as if Death is rounding up everything from the past and bringing it back together one last time, for one last march. Då Som Nu För Alltid means Then As Now Forever.
Ginger, I did'nt know you speak Swedish! Great pronunciation✌️❤️🇸🇪 I believe this was Kent's farewell to their audience, they marched through different parts of a wintry Stockholm.
Just to see your faces are pure joy!!! (open minds) Yes so much before this, this is like reading the last thing Strindberg (any of your favourite writers) wrote...
Aaah so much nostalgia in this band. My favourite songs would be Pärlor (Pearls), Ingenting (Nothing), and Egoist. These guys were huge from the latter part of the 90s until they disbanded. I was at that last closing tour, and it was so amazing. This was the music of alternative youth of my generation. Similarly the band The Ark had a huge impact during that period for similar reasons, though they played glam rock, normalising bisexuality and gender nonconformity. I would LOVE to see your take on their break out single It Takes A Fool To Remain Sane!
Kent were around for quite some time before they disbanded, making music ranging from indie rock to more electronic sounds. Not a huge fan, but I do like some of their stuff, and there is maybe a handfull of songs that I love. One of them is "Töntarna" (don't know what the best word for "töntarna" would be in English, maybe "the geeks" or "the wimps", people not likely to be very popular at school for example). It has a really cool video featuring students from Höghammargymnasiet, a school for young people with special needs. Check it out here: ruclips.net/video/kkhCH5I7e94/видео.html

My algorithm chucked this song up for me a year or so ago, it's been on my playlist for a whole now on Spotify, the band is called Kent and this is nothing like their actual music... Ive listened to a couple of their other songs and they are good, but I've never really dug any further which I should probably look to address. Mike was bang on point when he said its stirring stuff! I really think you guys should take a look at the Hu- band -wolf totem... it has been widely reviewed and reacted to by the myriad of inferior reaction channels to you guys but all the same I know it will appeal to Gingers warrior soul and Mike's love of stirring call to arms! 😀 give it a go I think you guys will become fans!
They did record one album in English, I would recommend "747", which also is exactly 7 minutes and 47 seconds, and the song they usually closed their concerts with. A true Swedish classic.
If you liked the atmosphere in that video - come visit Scandinavia during Nov to Mar. It is JUST like that ... even in the middle of the day. Dark, cold, snowy, wet, foggy...generally dreary. Regards from Norway.
It's a promo for their last album/tour. That what the text is saying at the end. Their most of their songs a phenomenal. Unfortunately like 90% of them are only available in Swedish. Their album "Du & Jag Döden" is one of my favorite albums of all time. "Vapen och ammunition" is fantastic as well.
💥 Just in! Today - Friday October, 18th 2024 - it's official! 🥳 They're back! Kent returns and will play three nights at "Tele2 Arena" in March of 2025. Tickets on sale October 26th. They will last five minutes. At the most.
This wasn't a "regular" song but rather an announcement video for their last album and last tour before retiring after a roughly 25 year long career. If you'd like to do another video then let me suggest another of their songs called "Var är vi nu?" which translates to "Where are we now?": ruclips.net/video/ykM558k_D0w/видео.html
I tried to go on your live fireside chat, but when I clicked on it, it said it was a private video. That wasn't nice to send an invite and not let me in. 😆😆
Kent was such an amazing band, and based on how you've felt about other Scandinavian artists you've reacted to, I think you would love them too. They are tied with a-ha as my favourite band. Sadly, you'll miss out on their incredible, melancholy yet epic, lyrics as most of their stuff is in Swedish.
Not really - they had one good song during their existence (Dom andra). Although popular among younger people they were just an average band among many - personally I am glad they decided to disband.
Pardon me Guys 🥰 Do U know when Alip's birthday is? Tue, August 31st. Apparently, it's not important to Alip. However, it could mean a lot to U. For the development of U'r channel if U can use this opportunity wisely! Just ignore it, if U think it's useless
You seem to enjoy bangers on this channel. Here are some recommendations that i wasn't been able to locate in your videos: - Ancient Bards - "A Greater Purpose"; - Hulkoff - "Jarfr" and "Einherjr"; - Danheim - "Blodfest", "Runar" and "Ymir"; - The HU - "Wolf Totem" and "Yuve Yuve Yu"; - Van Canto - "Rebellion", "Last Night of Kings" and "Fear of the Dark"; - Vitalij Kuprij - "Track On Fire"; - ASP - "Werben", "Krabat" and "Zaubererbruder"; - Skillet - "Rebirthing", "Whispers in the Dark" and "Monster"; - Stratovarius - "Millenium"; - Schandmaul - "Herren Der Winde", "Der Tyrann" and "Der Meisterdieb"; - Iron Saviour - "Hall of the Heroes" and "Thunderbird".
Kent is so fakking amazing. It's really too bad you guys don't know Swedish. They do some English songs as well but they're never as good as the original. Joakim writes alot in metaphors and poetic language and the translations often butcher the meaning and/or the beauty. Even when he is the one writing the translations. It's a language barrier that really seem impossible to completely overcome.
yeah its for kent byt its allso a norse thing born dead born free a norse (person) to avoid misogeny tbut to me as a norse female is higher than men mkan is born to be protector xpendeble frei and thor

Very cool
All the bandmembers does not have finnish roots. But 3 of them.
Yes. I was about to mention this, that it's not an actual song.
This was a promo for the final album and breaking up of the Swedish group Kent. This band was my youth!!
A few members were of Finnish origin.
@@TheUnderdogDe Still a swedish band
@@MrViktorBajen Sure, even if all members were of Finnish origin it wouldn't change that and wasn't meant to.

I find the drummer girl mesmerizing
The drummer isn't somebody with a lot of makeup.
The drummer is Lady Death herself.
Because the band was announcing their end. Many of the visuals were touchbacks to Kent's past albums and videos.
"Sista Albumet" means "Last Album". "Sista Turnén" means "Last Tour". (I don't know Swedish but my wife does.)

Saw them two times in Copenhagen... in My opinion The best Band in Scandinavia
Hi guys-- Here's the comment I posted on the original which according to the number of likes seems to explain it reasonably well...

I believe this was Kent's farewell to their audience, they marched through different parts of a wintry Stockholm.
You need to listen more of the content, one of best Swedish band
THEN, NOW..FOR EVER
This was their announcement they were breaking up the band. I like a few of their songs and this one too.
Oh no! Damn 😖
You got to listen to another song with KENT they are amazing.
Just to see your faces are pure joy!!! (open minds)
Yes so much before this, this is like reading the last thing Strindberg (any of your favourite writers) wrote...
I love kent im a big fan of them ^^ 🖤
More Kent !!!!!!
Aaah so much nostalgia in this band. My favourite songs would be Pärlor (Pearls), Ingenting (Nothing), and Egoist. These guys were huge from the latter part of the 90s until they disbanded. I was at that last closing tour, and it was so amazing. This was the music of alternative youth of my generation.

Here is the Lyrics in English but it dosent make it as deeep as in Swedish ! Its metaphores and sruff thats get Lost in translation
Kent - Vi Är För Alltid Lyrics Translation (We Are Forever)
Album: Då Som Nu För Alltid
Lyrics: Joakim Berg
Music: Joakim Berg
History, everything is about our history
All those who went against the current
Those who went their own way
Dreams
Everything is about our dreams
When we dreamers stop dreaming
You others have no dreams left
They will sing songs about us
We are forever
They will make films about us
We are forever
They will write books about us
You and I forever
Forever
They will sing songs about us
Then as now forever
Then as now forever
But we forget
Yes god so easily we forget
That which drove us got us to sparkle
Like those stars we once were
History, everything is about our history
So please go against the current
Yes go your own way
They will sing songs about us
We are forever
They will make films about us
We are forever
They will write books about us
You and I forever
Forever
They will sing songs about us
Then as now forever
Then as now forever
It is you and I forever
You and I forever...
I'm only joking, no one will write books
I'm only joking, no one will make films
I'm only joking, no one will sing songs about us
No songs about us...
Sing songs about us
We are forever
Please make films about us
We are forever
You must write books about us
You and I forever
You must sing songs about us
Then as now forever
Then as now forever

Hi there is a new video from alip ba ta, a tutorial play flute and guitar in IBU PERTIWI song
PLEASE YOUR REACT...👍👍👍❤️❤️
Love it 😍
Many pictures from my home town in this video 😉🇸🇪
"Then as Now for Always"
They did record one album in English, I would recommend "747", which also is exactly 7 minutes and 47 seconds, and the song they usually closed their concerts with. A true Swedish classic.
They also recorded Hagnesta HIll in english.

If You don't know language You could think that this last words are about some two monastery sisters, who died but... Well, You know.
It's a promo for their last album/tour.
That what the text is saying at the end.
Their most of their songs a phenomenal.
Unfortunately like 90% of them are only available in Swedish.
Their album "Du & Jag Döden" is one of my favorite albums of all time.
"Vapen och ammunition" is fantastic as well.
For the algorithm. And yeah, i dig Kent.
Then as always xx
"Then as now forever". There are alternative videos for the same hauntingly dramatic music.
💥 Just in!
Today - Friday October, 18th 2024 - it's official! 🥳
They're back!
Kent returns and will play three nights at "Tele2 Arena" in March of 2025.
Tickets on sale October 26th. They will last five minutes. At the most.
Final album, this is the end of an era for Kent.
Is this melody/song under another titel on Spotify?
då som nu för alltid
Its a funeral march for the end and closing of the band kent.
This wasn't a "regular" song but rather an announcement video for their last album and last tour before retiring after a roughly 25 year long career.
If you'd like to do another video then let me suggest another of their songs called "Var är vi nu?" which translates to "Where are we now?":

I only wish their last album had sounded anything like this.
So sad i got in to the so late i never got to se them live :(.
Då Som Nu För Alltid = Then, like now, forever.
It ment farewell Kents fare 5:59 well album & farewell tour
The drummer's name is Flossy and she rocks"
ITS A TRIBUTE R I P
You should get their albums. Never mind the lyrics, although they are great. The music is the best. From 2003...
Then As Now Forever
I tried to go on your live fireside chat, but when I clicked on it, it said it was a private video. That wasn't nice to send an invite and not let me in. 😆😆
🤣 we hit “start streaming” by accident. It was all of 10 seconds long. Stupid OBS. The buttons are so close
The problem with this song is that it's a brilliant song with a brilliant video made by or for a band that sounds and looks nothing like this.
Kent was such an amazing band, and based on how you've felt about other Scandinavian artists you've reacted to, I think you would love them too. They are tied with a-ha as my favourite band. Sadly, you'll miss out on their incredible, melancholy yet epic, lyrics as most of their stuff is in Swedish.
Not really - they had one good song during their existence (Dom andra). Although popular among younger people they were just an average band among many - personally I am glad they decided to disband.
I think it means the march of the dead but not a 100% as I came a cross this song yesterday
hahahha.... Kent.... you thought Lara Fabians fans where fanatic :-)
Då so nu för alltid - Then as now forever
ps. that was not a song, it was an annunciation of their last album
Pardon me Guys 🥰

Kent is so fakking amazing.
It's really too bad you guys don't know Swedish.
They do some English songs as well but they're never as good as the original.
Joakim writes alot in metaphors and poetic language and the translations often butcher the meaning and/or the beauty.
Even when he is the one writing the translations.
It's a language barrier that really seem impossible to completely overcome.
yeah its for kent byt its allso a norse thing born dead born free a norse (person) to avoid misogeny tbut to me as a norse female is higher than men mkan is born to be protector xpendeble frei and thor
