I'm not a Nord. But love the music and learning about such q fascinating ancient culture and people's that influenced today's world so much. Never forget your ancestors.
Perhaps you have some ancient blood within you. This music does not resonate with Christian blood. Although, Christians took our ways from us. So either way.
I was born in a catholic family, yet I still greatly enjoy this music. That's the beauty of music, it can sound good to anyone regardless of what their culture is. Music brings things together.
I'm greek and i understand this type of music....this is real music...true culture..true feelings... true traditional..to the ancient gods to all the ancient heroes we had in past...skol to these brave heroes! Hellas and Scandinavian people are the same!
Wow, I wish I could have been there. How many songs did he play? This is my ancestor's farm and our family visited there last summer but I couldn't make it back again. Hopefully I can see Wardruna perform in the future!

I would die to live in Norway, I'll play these songs every morning at the maximum volume so the entire neighborhood could listen and enjoy these masterpieces while looking at the most wonderful green lands in the world..
Wardruna's music touches my spirit like no other I have ever heard! It simply causes a feeling of nostalgia in me that I cannot explain! ... PS. No matter how long I let my beard grow, I can't braid it like that! Damn! (I am envious - in a good way, of course).
They did and we still do lol...You nearly had it, you spelt it as it sounds...Dia duit translates to god be with you but it means hello .Fáilte is welcome in Irish or Gaeilge as we call it....
Absolutely brother.I am half Anglo-Saxon & half Celtic and this touches some deep ancestral archetypes in me.All of the tribes of North-Western Europe are connected.
its like he said in his concert in Bergen we Norwegians used to have a rich song culture for everything this is for letting go and passing on so much we have lost so much its unbelievable...
I'm an American christian and I appreciate this rich and beautiful culture. I hope one day to visit Scandinavia and participate in something as beautiful as this. I respect your gods and ancestors. Glory to Scandinavia.
Absolutely glorious! I thought not much can impress me after the epic orchestra performance, but it turns out true bard doesn't need a band, lights, fireworks and dancers to weave a music spell.
I think this is far impressive. When anyone that's a musician, can paralyse the whole time, the world, nature and people, it's far beyond words, cause you need to put your whole soul into it, you're not singing or playing anymore, you're just another being in the existence blending with the true laws of life and divinity making that moment something joyful about.
I am from India, it is obvious that I donot know the words that are being spoken and also the fact that music is quite different from what we Indians usually hear, but there something which connects my soul to this music and this is the beauty of an art, the song was beautiful, thankyou for sharing. Love and peace from India.
What really astounded me is his name Einar, it's very similar to Kazakh name Ernar which also means "warrior". And his voice and music are mesmerising, I can't stop listening to it
There were bands I’ve listened to my whole life. They’ve all taken a back seat to this incredible piece of work. We do not get much exposure to this in America, and it’s criminal. Wardruna has become an unbelievable inspiration to me in almost every facet of my life. They are a true voice of the universe.
This is addicting to listen to. (btw who else is here listening to some of his pieces after hearing he'll be composing for Assassin's Creed Valhalla? Man I cant wait)
Heeyyy I'm glad I can shed light on this to so many people lol. I thought everyone would be here listening to him because of Ac. Apparently not and that's awesome We're all cheering for this lad to create his best possible piece for the game!
As with many of us, I am not a hero or warrior so I will never pass the Great Doors to Valhalla. However I do hope my soul finds peaceful residence in Asgard reunited with the ones before me. We would surely sing along to this song, drinking the finest mead within the shade of Yggdrasil. We would surely praise Einar in the presence of Bragi in effort to have him continue blessing this artist with ancient wisdom, originality and inspiration
Hehe, I'm not sure. This is not Skyrim, so no one is a Nord, but I assume you mean Germanic. I'm North-Dutch (living in that area as well), and my ancestors, as far as I can tell with the help of modern genome analysis, must have been mostly Frisian, Saxon, Anglian and Jutish (aka North Sea/Coastal Germanic or Ingaevonic). However, I've seen and heard Einar/Wardruna live so many times now (since I can often be found at the same events, not necessarily for that purpose), especially with this song, that it doesn't really move me anymore. Frankly, it never did that much, though I used to like it and still do to some degree. I know some people that worked on and perform with Wardruna, since I attended historical events with them, and once had the pleasure of talking to Einar about archaic instruments (a hobby of mine). Still not a Wardruna fan per se, though I support them. Does that magically change my ethnicity or mean I take less interest in my heritage? I have some friends of non-Germanic descent that love Wardruna. Does that make them "Nords"? It's just a matter of taste, man. But this is just, like, my opinion, I guess.
Nem todos nós BR somos assim "zuero" ou desrespeitoso, eu particularmente tenho força de vontade e virtude para falar isso e debater até o fim dos tempos por este comentário.
Thank you Einar for all this songs and for saving and spreading word about culture of your forefathers. This way it won't be forgotten. It is worth saving.
When i ear Einar Selvik... For me i Feel The love and The emotional message he Want to Share with us... That Man is The Memory Alive of his Ancestors.... Very Strong feeling Really !
Thank you so much for uploading this! I listen to Helvegen almost every day, it is a magical piece of music that touches my spirit like nothing else, and this recording is my favorite to sing along to.
I don't understand a word he says, but I love his music, I have a lot of Wardruna's songs downloaded. I have only been following the path of my ancestors for two years now, this music moves me to the core, like my spirit understands every word.
He has magical voice ...
Yes, he has a unique and beautiful voice.
I’m always moved to tears by his voice.
Braggi sings with his mouth...
Manly
Souhlasím, celkově jeho/jejich hudba je geniální
I want this song played at my funeral
So does Einar apparently. He said so last Sunday at the show in Utrecht.
It would be appropriate as it is about the road to the afterlife or Hel in Norse mythology.
So do I!!
That was my first think when I heard that song but then I shamed myself because who I am to play song like this at my funeral! Do you feel special??
Me, too. I'm trying to get the sheet music for it.
I'm not a Nord. But love the music and learning about such q fascinating ancient culture and people's that influenced today's world so much. Never forget your ancestors.

Plot twist: your neighbours are actually Norwegian boomers and instead prefer to listen to AHA at full volume 🤣
He is a true man of Gods... His music is a true magic. Allfather is proud of You, Einar.Tussen takk, fra Polsk!
Til ars og fridr, my friend.
The vocals on Einar is undisputed 🙌🏼🇳🇴 Incredible

I dont know how strong is his beard for doing that hehe
At least you can grow a beard. I just get a patchy mess.
Odin didn't want me to be able to grow a beard apparently...
This is the music that connects us to our ancestors and ancient past. Be it Nordic, Celt or Gaelic...
They did and we still do lol...You nearly had it, you spelt it as it sounds...Dia duit translates to god be with you but it means hello .Fáilte is welcome in Irish or Gaeilge as we call it....

the last rays of the sun shone over the mountains and birds danced around him .... it was Amazing !
I can't stop playing this. I'm going outa my mind!
Helvegen is such an amazing song. This is my favorite recording of it. I love the simple setting and small crowd.. so great!
Have you heard helvegen by aurora and wardruna? I think it's better than perfect
Wow amazing to be playing the instrument where it was discovered!
I'm an American christian and I appreciate this rich and beautiful culture. I hope one day to visit Scandinavia and participate in something as beautiful as this. I respect your gods and ancestors. Glory to Scandinavia.
@Jigsaw Of USA Yes! Jesus Christ was Viking for that ☺
this is masterpiece of real music !!

Amazing music, I can listening it every day . Thank you for Gift for my soul and heart.

Your avatar is ridiculous. I am drunk, and I have been trying to brush off this hair fro like 10 minutes. Thanks for that. Skol.

Такому звучному голосу и аккомпоненовка музыкального инструмента не нужна. Thanks a million!!!
Though I'm Greek, I can feel this in my bones.. thank you, Einar.
Kalhspera...Ti kaneis esu??
Jag finner få ord för detta. Något djupt rotat, som länge trots varit dött har kommit till liv. Underbart.
when i die i will hear this song over and over in my head
you mean your corpse will?
speaker made of skull? cool :D
who will sing me to Hel, my brother...to the next life, for it is so cold,so cold,so cold...i will sing your soul there, be assured
Indeed, In Valhalla!
Nicolas Drummer Into the path of Hel... I wish you will do.
What really astounded me is his name Einar, it's very similar to Kazakh name Ernar which also means "warrior". And his voice and music are mesmerising, I can't stop listening to it
Link the kazac sonf pls
It actually stands for lone warrior in norwegain. Fairly normal name but is very much used on iceland
@@patrician3guidaallimperode222 sonf?
Ернар значит могучий, сильный, выносливый как верблюд. Связи никакой нет.
This music speaks to my soul. Much love from El Paso, Texas.
There were bands I’ve listened to my whole life. They’ve all taken a back seat to this incredible piece of work. We do not get much exposure to this in America, and it’s criminal. Wardruna has become an unbelievable inspiration to me in almost every facet of my life. They are a true voice of the universe.
I was there! Such a beautiful place by the river. The sun was setting through the mountains. I will never forget this.
Travelers yes it was a phantastic consert and scenery!!!
This is addicting to listen to.
(btw who else is here listening to some of his pieces after hearing he'll be composing for Assassin's Creed Valhalla? Man I cant wait)
Majd For Days I'm looking forward to it as well.
Majd For Days I had no idea he was working in ac Valhalla. I am gonna love playing that game and hearing Wardruna and Heilung throughout the game.
Never knew that! Just love the music but great news about AC!
is he? thats awesome!
Heeyyy I'm glad I can shed light on this to so many people lol. I thought everyone would be here listening to him because of Ac. Apparently not and that's awesome
We're all cheering for this lad to create his best possible piece for the game!
