Well actually they were tribal societies so its normal to be homesick. And they were much closer than we can hope to be today with all facebook's and instagram's. We got the tools but we lost the heart and the drive to be social... :W Thats something the world still has to figure out, how come we can all talk to each other now all over the world and we are as distant as we ever were, even from close friends...just sad
This is my favorite song ever!! I just attended my first Heilung ritual a few weeks ago here in LA and the music felt tru my bones it was an amazing experience.
Funny enough, Viking is a title for people of all backgrounds who vibe and battle for their chosen god, as a Hellenic pagan, all is welcome with no hate.
Just subscribed. Unfortunately missed them. Saw them live last Oct in Greensboro NC. I'm 79 and have seen countless concerts in my day and their show is spectacular! I dare say the best I've ever seen. Very theatrical "Rituals" and my God those amplified drums. My chest is still vibrating, lol!
I so enjoyed watching your reaction to this Heilung performance. I have been obsessed with them (and others such as Skald, Wardruna and Omni) and so enjoy seeing others discover them. Here’s hoping to seeing you at one of their upcoming rituals!
Hey Just, you're giving me a great start to the year. First the great Franco Battiato and now Heilung hahaha. You see how everything I recommend ends up loving you. There are many curious facts about Heilung. They work hand in hand with archaeologists and all the texts of their songs are extracted from tombs, inscriptions on swords, on helmets, and in various documents preserved from the time about 1000 years ago. In this specific case, nothing is known about the meaning of the lyrics, except for the word Landawariar which means protector of the earth, also knowing that Anoana is the name of the adult actress who performs the official video. Heilung's costumes are completely correct, since each clothing is adapted with special care to the period, both proto-Germanic and northern European at that time. They make the instruments themselves, like the drums to which they give, let's say, a baptism of blood, while some are true museum pieces like an ancient rattle full of human ashes. These instruments have also caused them problems, especially human bones for tapping, with which they have had problems on the borders of some countries, especially in Russia. Well, nothing more for the moment. If you make other Heilung videos again, especially from the first album or the first concert, I will be able to tell you a lot, a lot of history and information about the meaning of their lyrics. For the moment I will tell you the following from his official Anoana video He lyrics for this piece are mainly taken from bracteates: golden, circular coins or amulets found in Northern Europe that date from the 4th to 7th centuries CE. They are often fitted with a decorated rim and loop, which indicates that they were meant to be worn and perhaps provide protection, fulfil wishes or for divination. The bracteates feature a very significant iconography influenced by Roman coinage. They were predominantly made from Roman gold, which was given to the North Germanic peoples as peace money. In Anoana, the listener has the chance to delve into a collection of likely encoded spells from the Migration Period and get a touch of magic from the Dark Ages. The intention of the piece is to playfully reconnect to an incantational language of a period where the North was richer in gold than any other region. Our forefathers presumably enjoyed a time of great prosperity and it may make us rethink how dark these ages real Above the sign on the womb of the giving birth mother is probably a painted version of Ægirs Hjelm/Aegishjalmur/Ægishjálmr ("Ægir's Helmet"), which is a symbol described in the Poetic Edda as a symbol of ultimate protection, physical, mental and spiritual referred to as protection against all kinds of fear "Ægir/Ægi" means "Sea" in both dialects of Old Norse and is also the name of the personification of the sea. "Ægir's Gate", describes the eddies that drag ships to the bottom of the sea. Ægir / Ægi has often been described as an old man with a long white beard, and to see him standing still in the water was a bad omen, as he surfaced to drag people and ships to the bottom of the ocean. Ægirs Hjelm is described in the Poetic Edda in a stanza with a shape-shifting dragon, Fafner, whose blood is poisonous. The dragon guards a treasure and, with the help of Ægirs Hjelm's spell, is invincible. In The Galdrabók, the symbol is also described as something "you wear on your forehead, between your eyebrows"). In any case, this must be taken with tweezers since it may be wrong. About the solar eclipse perhaps these images would be connected with the symbol of the black sun. For the ancients, the sun was the source of life, as it provided them with heat and energy. The lack of him was just the opposite. For the ancient peoples, it seems that the periodicity and continuity of day and night made us think not only of the existence of 1 sun, but of two suns, one bright and luminous and the other black. One represented life and the other death. This could be translated as the balance between light and dark and its connection to the world of the dead and the living. In it, the dawn of the day was interpreted as the rebirth of life and its renewal. That is why eclipses were so important for all primitive and ancient cultures: When the sun disappeared in broad daylight, they predicted that eclipses would bring about great changes, or that even in the worst case, the world could come to an end.

A little background going on here - from their official video. A child born under an eclipse in Old Norse was thought to be imbued with special powers allowing them to assume the form of an animal or restore its life from death. With regard to the eclipse itself, the Sun is pulled in a chariot by two horses ... who were chased by Skoll, a great wolf born of Fenrir. Skoll's sibling, Hati.... chased the moon. Ragnarok... their version of the end times was related to this event in which the Old Norse thought would occur of Skoll finally caught up with the Sun, and Hati finally caught up to the Moon... devouring them and unleashing the end times among those who believed it. So.... here's this video showing ceremonies with a whole lot of drumming going on which is what the Old Norse did way back then in an attempt to scare Skoll and Hati off from their heavenly pursuits. Anoana does a fantastic job of putting it together.
Nice to see you finally got to Heilung I recommended them to you a few years ago and you kinda blew me off saying you weren't interested. Now you know what I was talking about I knew your reaction would be good so thanks for finally reaching to them
Nice bit of folk music. If you want some more folk (a song for mothers day - all about the love of the singer's mother) by an artist from back in the days of the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, who was murdered by the Taliban , which you have to pretend you're watching in a remote Turkmen tent on a Soviet TV, in a part of the mountains where the reception isn't very good, then you might enjoy this performance of *Enna* ruclips.net/video/WwG_cl1jl5s/видео.html
I do find it appealing, but do I find it authentic? I’m thinking here in comparison to Hawkwind ‘Ghostdance’ at Stonehenge in the early 1980s and someone like Buffy St Marie ‘Power in the Blood’ with Tanya Taguq?
Yes, it is terribly authentic in almost every way, although we know what some northern European rituals were like and surely this is a reinterpretation of one of the known ones. However, the clothing is historically correct for the period, and so are the instruments. All of their costumes, song lyrics, instruments and more are cross-checked with archaeologists who study Viking and proto-Germanic culture. He left you some data written by Heilund members on this topic and some extra research I made about the original Anoana video. A hug.

They make a lot of their own instruments too. It is really a spiritual experience and bringing a little back of a culture along with many more cultures the Holy Roman Empire tried and almost succeeded to erase. Little is actually known about how he vikings, germanic, and cheltic tribes because the romans made them out as barbarians needing to be concored and civilized. It was much longer ago and much of the history is told through Roman eyes. Hopefully archeologists keep digging and who knows maybe the secrets locked in the vatican will be revealed. Until then, I will always wonder what would the world would be like if many of the cultures worldwide had been able to keep their cultures that were in many ways alike, because even though The Holy Roman Empire fell eventually the usurped would eventually continue as The Catholic Church's influence spread.
you are wiking. we all come from the same root. its just a more distant branch. resonance to somthing our thinking mind cant find relation to. but our heart does.
@a.k.1740 Nice catch! 😁 Just a little game i've been playing lately. Name the Stranglers lyric, and keep the boredom at bay. So many greats at my disposal!
Lovely fusion of modern instruments and (presumably) ancient ones, a modern rock sound and an old folk style, an indeterminate language and the universal language of music...but I don't really need to hear it again. Despite the unfamiliar throat singing, costumes and general ambience of the performance, I found it rather unexciting. Nice in the way that a cup of cocoa is nice but I'd rather have a double malt whisky.
Maybe you should find out about this group before saying such ridiculous things. Everything you see on stage is meticulously measured and studied. The costumes are historically correct. They are completely correct copies of what has been found in tombs and manuscripts by archaeologists who study the culture of northern Europe and who collaborate closely with the group. Everything you see is not a cheap theater. This is a sample of the cultures of the people of northern Europe from 1000 years ago. You should have a deep respect for what Heilung is making us known. All the best.
@@Nidels For me it's not a problem of authenticity or credibility, it's just that there's no need to do a theatrical production with costumes to come up with cheap world music which moreover, sounds very contemporary, therefore the antithesis of what they want to describe ! Well, to each his own!
@@dannylgriffin It is a ceremonial helmet. Surely it was only worn by the druid or the chief of the village. Keep in mind that the Heilung vestments are real interpretations of the vestiges of clothing left by the ancient people of northern Europe, whether in tombs with the deceased, in books such as the Poetic Eda or in runic inscriptions. If he wears a helmet with horns, it is because archaeologists working closely with Heilung have verified it. All the best.
Heilung is an experimental folk group made up of members from Denmark, Norway and Germany1. Their music is based on texts found on artifacts from the Iron Age and the Viking Age. They describe their music as an “amplified story from the early Middle Ages of Northern Europe”2.🤗🤗
One comes to these things trying to keep an open mind, one really does. But take away the sets, costumes, and amateur dramatics, and what have you really got... a relatively simple, monotonous, and repetetive tune. All a bit bread and circuses for my liking.
Ok. We ALL know you're a terrible, narrow-minded attention seeking little boy. We all know you come on here to spread hate, and to be an annoying little shit. But laughing at centuries of beliefs and heritage is xenophobic at ''best''. For once in your pathetic life, keep your offensive crap to yourself, because it's well past your trolling ''view''.
@@Owlstretchingtime78Yup, you're right on the thumbs score. That said (and not to be unfair to JP), but as he seems to like around 98.5% of everything he plays, you were on pretty safe ground there :) If not for the intro I'd have thought i'd accidentally clicked on the theatre channel at a rather dull section of some obscure, foreign musical...
The official music video for "Anoana" is also a lovely thing to behold.
they make you homesick for a place, you have never been and a life you never had...
Well actually they were tribal societies so its normal to be homesick. And they were much closer than we can hope to be today with all facebook's and instagram's. We got the tools but we lost the heart and the drive to be social... :W Thats something the world still has to figure out, how come we can all talk to each other now all over the world and we are as distant as we ever were, even from close friends...just sad
This is my favorite song ever!! I just attended my first Heilung ritual a few weeks ago here in LA and the music felt tru my bones it was an amazing experience.
Heilung ist episch und Anoana ist mein Lieblingslied. Wie tief Maria mit ihrer Stimme gehen kann ist fantastisch.
THIS speaks to my soul. So beautifully. So clearly. LOOOOOOOOVE!
Good reaction. Saw them in Denver in Oct and they are every bit as good as you imagine. They are playing Red Rocks next April (night of a full moon).
Yes indeed. I'll be there. It is my first ritual.
Funny enough, Viking is a title for people of all backgrounds who vibe and battle for their chosen god, as a Hellenic pagan, all is welcome with no hate.
Love their new live set up with the throne, art work and lighting.
Just subscribed. Unfortunately missed them. Saw them live last Oct in Greensboro NC. I'm 79 and have seen countless concerts in my day and their show is spectacular! I dare say the best I've ever seen. Very theatrical "Rituals" and my God those amplified drums. My chest is still vibrating, lol!
Would love to experience that!
This is how I time travel....
I so enjoyed watching your reaction to this Heilung performance. I have been obsessed with them (and others such as Skald, Wardruna and Omni) and so enjoy seeing others discover them. Here’s hoping to seeing you at one of their upcoming rituals!

you are wiking. we all come from the same root. its just a more distant branch. resonance to somthing our thinking mind cant find relation to. but our heart does.
This is actually based on Germanic paganism (has mixes of nordic people ofc cause thye all meddled way back then). When they were "barbarians" :P
This is very nice but I can't help but think that Dead Can Dance did it first.
And much more musically inspired and less showy too!!!!😉
Aren’t we lucky to have two awesome bands now?
@@a.k.1740 Agreed.
I look to them. Sorry, Heilung is another League
Well, it's no Tull.
Yep, miles apart !!! I'll stick with Tull (well, the first twenty years of Jethro Tull!😉).
'First and last men walk this earth, but only a few survive. I'm the Wizard Of Aus and i've got it all planned for my first nuclear device'.
"If I could get lucky I'd secede from the states, I'd buy the country at an incredible rate".😉
@a.k.1740 Nice catch! 😁 Just a little game i've been playing lately. Name the Stranglers lyric, and keep the boredom at bay. So many greats at my disposal!
Lovely fusion of modern instruments and (presumably) ancient ones, a modern rock sound and an old folk style, an indeterminate language and the universal language of music...but I don't really need to hear it again. Despite the unfamiliar throat singing, costumes and general ambience of the performance, I found it rather unexciting. Nice in the way that a cup of cocoa is nice but I'd rather have a double malt whisky.
For me it's the zenith of the highest stage ridiculousness with a minimum of musicality!🙄 Next....😒
Maybe you should find out about this group before saying such ridiculous things. Everything you see on stage is meticulously measured and studied. The costumes are historically correct. They are completely correct copies of what has been found in tombs and manuscripts by archaeologists who study the culture of northern Europe and who collaborate closely with the group. Everything you see is not a cheap theater. This is a sample of the cultures of the people of northern Europe from 1000 years ago. You should have a deep respect for what Heilung is making us known. All the best.
@@Nidels For me it's not a problem of authenticity or credibility, it's just that there's no need to do a theatrical production with costumes to come up with cheap world music which moreover, sounds very contemporary, therefore the antithesis of what they want to describe ! Well, to each his own!
@@Nidels people walked around wearing antlers?
@@dannylgriffin It is a ceremonial helmet. Surely it was only worn by the druid or the chief of the village. Keep in mind that the Heilung vestments are real interpretations of the vestiges of clothing left by the ancient people of northern Europe, whether in tombs with the deceased, in books such as the Poetic Eda or in runic inscriptions. If he wears a helmet with horns, it is because archaeologists working closely with Heilung have verified it. All the best.
Heilung is an experimental folk group made up of members from Denmark, Norway and Germany1. Their music is based on texts found on artifacts from the Iron Age and the Viking Age. They describe their music as an “amplified story from the early Middle Ages of Northern Europe”2.🤗🤗
One comes to these things trying to keep an open mind, one really does. But take away the sets, costumes, and amateur dramatics, and what have you really got... a relatively simple, monotonous, and repetetive tune. All a bit bread and circuses for my liking.
Congratulations, you have just described 95% of the current music scene in just a few words.
@@lebenswasser4224 Aye, sadly :)
Ok. We ALL know you're a terrible, narrow-minded attention seeking little boy. We all know you come on here to spread hate, and to be an annoying little shit. But laughing at centuries of beliefs and heritage is xenophobic at ''best''. For once in your pathetic life, keep your offensive crap to yourself, because it's well past your trolling ''view''.
@jfergs.3302 I didn't bother watching it, but i'd bet my life Justin thumbs were vertically inclined!
@@Owlstretchingtime78Yup, you're right on the thumbs score. That said (and not to be unfair to JP), but as he seems to like around 98.5% of everything he plays, you were on pretty safe ground there :)
If not for the intro I'd have thought i'd accidentally clicked on the theatre channel at a rather dull section of some obscure, foreign musical...
