She recently released a folk album called Folkesange, if I remember correctly, it has a full version of this song along with a few other covers and original songs
Lmao, I was 100% thinking it was a hurdy gurdy, then I was like, wait, there's no spinny bit. It has notes that you push down sorta like an accordian, but oh gosh, you use a bow too, and it sounds like a violin a little. I truly love this odd hybrid
I've never seen an instrument like this...has such an unique sound. Her voice is lovely. As others have commented, I wish this video was longer. Beautiful!
@@JessR0416 Thanks for posting the link. I've purchased the full song and others by Myrkur as well. Although not what I expected from this clip, she's quite an inspiring artist and I'm listening to her other work now.
bro dont forget its your own culture. norse culture is directly descended from old germanic tribes. norse mythology is just an newer version of odinism wich took place in germany. have some pride in our people broder
Btw, it’s called a Nyckelharpa, as it says. I played one a few days ago and when I was just jamming on my guitar I might’ve cracked how to play a nyckelharpa good. I’ll try that next time I’m there
I always Imagined Valhalla to be sounding more like a Happy band of drunkard yelling, singing and growling their joy towards the battles they've fought, and the ones yet to come.
I'd imagine it so too. Valhalla is that part of the soul that takes pleasure in the spirituality of struggle, violence and death. It's a dark place, an eerie breeze of pain, anger, sadness, joy and pleasure all joined in a chilling harmony.. Being a norweigan I've heard this type of music all my life. And understanding how cruel mother nature must have been to live in here back in the old days it's no wonder this type of music came pouring out of our people tbh 😏
@UCEqn0hhI933dQVm_T9t1L8Q How does it feel to live in a degenerate city where crime and rapes happen on a daily basis? Even if I did in fact live in my mothers basement, that would be a more pleasant option than a concrete box filled with strangers.
when i listen north music i literally want to cry. i'm feeling it in my blood. but i'm from Turkey and like you said no one is from north in my family. but i feel it i literally cry when i listen, when i see scandinavia
Of course the Scandinavian woman playing the obscure instrument has a beautifully enchanting voice to match her gorgeous looks and soft white skin with shimmering blonde hair.
It sounds like comfort for those who have lost a loved one, a war cry for those who are ready to fight, and peace for those who are troubled by what is about to happen
This is one of the most if not the most beautiful things ive ever heard it makes my heart bleed. In a good way. Its completely undescribable what this makes me feel
I’m an Indian and hand upon heart this so beautiful. Many thanks. Only gripe it is so short and the ending is so abrupt. Hope there is a much longer version out soon
There’s something so beautiful, melancholy, and haunting about this snippet of music that really does beckon you. I can’t even imagine how complicated that instrument is to play.
Wherever I go, whatever I do, whatever time it might be, I find myself coming back to that song, to that video with the beautifull dark queen singing in the wind, every cord of her lovely instrument, pinching my soul.
This.... its in my soul. Hard to explain how spiritual this is, the music, her voice. Unreal. Amazing. I could listen to her all day & I’d drift through eternity elated.
im sorry to break it to you but we screwed natural selection up, we idiot proofed everything and now the idiots continue to live on and our entire evolution is fucked
This is so magical and enchanting at the same time i'm feeling that i am lost and wandering happily in the dark woods like a lost mountain spirit running and dancing on the wind and the branches because of her enchanting magnificient voice
The more I listen to this track the more it transports me back to my past life, I feel like I've really heard it before. I have always thought that in my past life I have lived in medieval times. Really beautiful.
Close your eyes and it's some far off fantasyland, the last of the sun's light fading away gently. The flames are flickering in the distance in the sea from the funeral pyre of an old wise Viking elder, as it swims away in that boat. There are so many stars in the night sky, constellations you've never seen, and there's some unknown fear some unknown omen in the air. There's a storm coming.. brewing in the distance, you can hear the faint rumblings of the thunder and rain, like a warning, a premonition.. you take slow steps, your feet almost noiseless on the soft green grass swayed by the breeze and the cold kisses your cheeks. You can feel the drift of the scent in air. He must be getting close. You have to go. You must. It's going to get dark soon. You must set off before nightfall. The dark will keep you safe. The dark will keep you protected. You must go.

Wind's howling.
Damn it, a storm
Looks like rain...
how long are u gonna make me wait
FOUND ME PAN HAVE YE
Let's play gwent.
This instrument looks like the missing link between a violin and a hurdy gurdy.
Lmao, I was 100% thinking it was a hurdy gurdy, then I was like, wait, there's no spinny bit. It has notes that you push down sorta like an accordian, but oh gosh, you use a bow too, and it sounds like a violin a little. I truly love this odd hybrid
It's a nyckelharpa - a Swedish folk instrument, around since about 1300 and still with us today.
If you search RUclips for "nyckelharpa," you'll find quite a bit of harpa music
I thought it was a gun
That and a millipede.
This reminds me of memories I only feel and places I've never been. 😢
Anybody else feel like they are back on Skellige?
theslayerofthemall Yeah! (And in Velen at approximately the end of the song)
I was thinking Grizzly Hills or Howling Fjord in World of Warcraft myself.
I was thinking about The Banner Saga
Yeeah
oh-ho yeah, this brings you back.
Ethereal voice with an old haunting instrument? I need more of this music asap
very unrelated but listen to Opeth for haunting ethereal music
List to Folksaenge from her. It's an amazing album with lots of songs like that.
ruclips.net/video/c277UL4iAC0/видео.html
Worth a buy. :D
Agreed
The thumbnail looked like Sarah Connor with a machine gun, but this is even better.
😂 oof.. i'm dead
I sometimes refer to my nyckelharpa as my assault fiddle.
Fuckin hell im in stitches
I think this combo would kill more robots....
Wow 😂😂😂😂
I don't have an inkling of Scandinavian blood in me, and yet this music makes me feel so much.
Off course y not have scandinavian blood)
I think IT is pretty obvious you don't have Scandinavian blood buddy hahah
@@Voyasermama ye, he mentioned that, don't understand the point of making it any obvious. Mans just trying to enjoy music from another culture.
Humans having shared feelings over music is a gift from the gods. I love that you love this music! You are awesome!
@@apolon92s 😂😂
very relaxing. We want longer version
serby84 I couldnt agree more this is calming
Update: I've recorded a longer version of the song for you coming soon
Myrkur Øksemorder thank you! Amazing!!!
Please, we cannot wait!
Amazing!!
Thank you for keeping the voice of our ancestors alive
I've never seen an instrument like this...has such an unique sound. Her voice is lovely. As others have commented, I wish this video was longer. Beautiful!
🎯Came here to say exactly this, but you stole the words right out of my mouth. 🎯
Totally Agree.
She is hot right? It's not just because of the contrast of how ugly that instrument is? Right?
Some say that "nyckelharpa" is a Swedish invention and some say it is from northern Germany. But today it is mostly used in Sweden.
It fascinates me how inventive human beings are with instruments. The people that play such instruments fascinate me the same amount haha
Do more of this!
Camelworks absolutely beautiful
LORE VIDEO WITH THIS IN IT NOW
what are u doing here bro. lol
Yaaaassss
Camelworks I didn't expect to see you here! Are you a nykelharpa and hurdy-gurdy lover too?

Once you understand the lyrics, it’s even more beautiful.
Something special about Nordic people.
I'm not even of from this side of the world nor I think any of my family is but I feel like this touches me for some reason. I like it alot
Folk music no matter where it's from, touches on the same feelings.
that's the magic of music
Where did it touch you huh show me on this doll.
It's in your blood. Look into the History of the white nations. Your kind is being intentionally replaced.
when i listen north music i literally want to cry. i'm feeling it in my blood. but i'm from Turkey and like you said no one is from north in my family. but i feel it i literally cry when i listen, when i see scandinavia
Words can't describe the beauty of this. Time stops, the world keeps spinning and I need to sleep... but I'd rather keep this on repeat
Северные народы прекрасны! Самые красивые люди планеты! :)
This beautiful music gave me goosebumps. It's so moving and mediaeval. Soul Music. What a beautiful instrument and singing.
I’m not originally Scandinavian, but I have Norwegian roots and this makes me even more proud of that.
Why is this only 1:28?
This broke my heart, showed promise of comfort, then broke my heart further with the abrupt end.

This is so deeply emotional....so perfect. She sings like an elf
Literally a mix between Agni Parthene and Farewell to Nigg. All the same notes in all the same order. Beautiful.
Could not stand the power in this music. Ripped my heart out 😢. Awsomely awakened my Scandinavian. Thanks
1:17 that part is absolutely obscure and dark, now I understand why Scandinavian are so great doing metal.
Name just one contemporary danish band please.
@@mikkelbdker7186 why they gotta be danish?
@@Kimpes It was a reply to Mauro who claimed that Scandinavians were good doing metal. Swedes are good, Norwegians are ok but Danes really sucks.

Music like this is so fantastic. It just takes you away into another world almost.
Music used to be important.
This is the most beautiful sound I have ever heard.

Dzień zdaje się przebiegać inaczej, gdy przypadkiem trafi się na coś takiego. Wspaniałe

I’m an Indian and hand upon heart this so beautiful. Many thanks. Only gripe it is so short and the ending is so abrupt. Hope there is a much longer version out soon
I want to believe she is singing in the perfect valley to get these amazing effects!
This is one of the most beautiful sounds I've ever heard!
yup
Absolutely hauntingly beautiful. I could listen to this music for ages
one of the most mournfully gorgeous sounds in existence. Spanning the spectrum of vibes perfectly
i acually started crying while listening to this. I love my country so much!
I would pay good money to hear this on an album. This is exactly what I need in my music collection! PLEASE, put this on an album!
I really want a longer version of this!
The combination of the deep, modal harmonies of the nyckelharpa and her clear voice touch parts of me I never knew existed.❤
There are no words for this. It shall remain on loop for all of existence.
Kaer Morhen is my city.
Toussaint is my city

When she starts singing it goes straight through my soul...
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard
Thank you Myrkur for preserving our nordic culture in such an amazing way. 😎👍💪
I could watch/listen to this on repeat all day, every day, for the rest of my life.
This.... its in my soul. Hard to explain how spiritual this is, the music, her voice. Unreal. Amazing. I could listen to her all day & I’d drift through eternity elated.
You have been transported to the Ethereal Realms on the wings of every note...
As someone who loves hurdy gurdys and owns a violin, i feel a deep attraction to that instrument.
The spirit of the north speaks volumes through this short lovely piece of music.
Myrkur... I bow to your ancient connection to music.. It is pure masterpiece and for me top of folk pagan music in modern times 🙏
