This song means a lot to me. Not only because it fits with my struggles in life and gives me strength, but also because I remember my dad teaching me to sing it when I was a kid. It's also just one of the best Swedish songs ever.

I've been waiting for this, great man! I agree with you, it would have worked well or even better in a litle lower tempo. Nordman is more pop than rock, but has definitly some Swedish folk music vibes in it. Nordman contains Mats Wester and Håkan Hemlin. Mats writes the music and play some of the instruments. He's an old musician into Swedish folk music. Håkan is the singer and used to sing in heavy metal bands. Lyrics are written outside the band, mostly by Py Bäckman. Håkan Hemlin has struggeled with drug addiction for several periods of time, wich maked the band to split up several times.
I still love this song. One I love even more is "Förlist". I met him (the singer) once at a bus stop. He is so nice to talk to. I said that I enjoyed his music and my favorite. Then I asked him about his own favorite and he answered. He´s very down to earth.
Den låten är dansk från början "Tusind Sukker" av Anne Linnet, även versionen med Laleh är bra. En låt med Afzelius annars som är bra är "Sång till friheten" som är ursprungligen en kubansk låt "El día feliz que está llegando"
They have many big hits, you should listen to them more. I think they have the most sold swedish album in history, I think they broke that record. That was with their debut album that they released in 1994. Give it a listen because you havev many good hits on that album.
Nordman är ett möte mellan rock o folkmusik, elgitarr och nyckelharpa. Blir alltid lika berörd av deras musik. Tips på ny låt: Roger Pontare "När vindarna viskar mitt namn"
I haven’t heard this since I was a kid! I liked it back then but I remember I liked their song Förlist better. No idea if I would prefer it now however. My taste has definitely changed since then. I will check it out right now and see! this will be interesting...
Ok, I’m back. I still prefer Förlist as an adult. It’s more uplifting, not as repetitive and has a better hook. Honestly I would never listen to this kind of music now, but the nostalgia is real 😄
Jag minns att min favorit o tonåren också var "Förlist", men inte idag (X antal år senare). Jag har märkt att vad man älskar inom musik, och att man även kan börja älska en låt eller grupp man förut aldrig varit så intresserad av, det har att göra med hur ditt liv är i olika perioder och vilka känslor och tankar du har! 😊
The group Östen med Resten did a little bit slower version of this song, I think, on their album "Original låtar" (The title is probably some kind of humour since it's nothing but covers).
Hmm... Thank you for making me feel nostalgic. xD I remember that I loved Nordman as a kid. But... Hearing it again after so many years with a much broader spectrum of folk music this really feels pretty empty compared to how I remember it. What the hell is wrong with a kid's mind? xD Then again... If I didn't like Nordman back in those days, I might not even have such a love for folk music today. :)
Nice that you picked this classic banger up! You must react to the parody by Nile City, though it's not this sång, but the "Laglöst land". You'll laugh your ass off probably!😅😋😋
man, this nordman was a homeless guy and deep in drugs when somone took him up from the streeets cuz he´s voice and let him do a song, and this is what you listen to right now, i guess it saved he´s life
This was one of my first music memories! 😅 I was 5 or 6 years old when this song came out. If you want something more up tempo react to "Be Mig" by Nordman.
They had some bad reputation when the started- because alot of people thought they looked like young racist-natzis with the "skin-heads". But they are and were not. But they was often misunderstood. I really like this song.
Yeah, it's ridiculous really. Even to this day people would judge them, or any other folk inspired musicians, as such. If anything, I love how these musicians challenge the stereotypes like that, consioussly or unconsioussly. In the end of the day, all they want to do is to make music they love.
Well a sugestion, though he mainly sings in English is Eric Gadd. Songs like Riding High and My Personality might be something… or Paulo Mendonca songs like Me and my Friends and BBB.
The music is influenced by our viking heritage and the music and instruments from that time. If you listen to their lyrics in general it's about the life of our Nordic ancestors.
Hey man I know your list is long, but Nordmans best song is called ”BE MIG”. I think you would like that one, it’s a bit more powerful... Keep up the good work! Kärlek
Jag tror det är dags för en till Nordman. I just listened to my old favorites and the next one has to be "Be mig". No need to guess what the song sounds like. Just make a video exactly like this one. Old school Amerikanen Reacts! ❤
Yes it definently should be a little bit slower, this felt a bit like it's was going into 90's eurodisco territory 😂. I remember it as if it was slower but haven't heard it in a very long time.
@@DanielKling ok. Bara för att vara tydlig: jag skrev/menade inte att den är snabbare än vanligt här eller att jag trodde det utan att jag *mindes* den som långsammare, alltså i mitt huvud och om jag sjunger på den är det något långsammare. :)
Are you half swedish half american, or you have Swedish relatives? I think so because you speak Swedish almost fluently. 👌😀 You would fit in here in Sweden like a native, your whole way is kinda Swedish 😉😊
"The Kristet Utsende": well just about any song but... "Cairos Fjollor" perhaps or "Bärs som Bärs" or "Pang på pungen i Portugal". The lyrics is kind of ... explicit, so listen to one song first and the decide if it fits the channel 🙂
Väljer du bara svenskspråkiga? Lyssna annars på Tears never dry av Stephen Simmonds feat. Lisa Nilsson. Contemporary 90's rnb ballad. Tror den var den mest spelade på Sveriges Radio 1997.
Nordmans största hit är egentligen "Förlist". Kul grej; jag var på konsert med Raubtier (som spelar "panzar rock n' roll på svenska") och innan konserten startade spelades lite musik i högtalarna, och till Nordmans "Be mig" sjöng hela publiken med XD
heh cool that you know swedish. But man, its better at this tempo. Slow ones try to make it too artistic or what ever, its meant to be fast. Atleast how I understand and like the song : ) edit: also react to sommaren är kort and sommartider : D for some summer songs
bro i dont wanna be rude but comon, you telling us you understand the lyrics and this guy is singing bout he´s life as homeless when he is far away and got a frozen body eating air and live on water, it hurts but walk anyway you can always turn around he says in the ref. and you sit there and laughing bout it. comon wtf is wrong with you. Homeless people deserve all help they can get and iam glad he got this chanse to climb in life and do something about he´s situation

This entire album is absolutely amazing, the second album too but man this is nostagia heaven..Nordman for me is peak 90's!
As a young child I used to cry from hearing this song, because I felt so bad for the wanderer ... ;__;
vandraren är vi alla här i livet.... och, Oden
Hahaha awww, that's cute.
Vandraren var han!

Respect for reacting to Swedish music bro.. I'm a Swedish immigrants and Nordman is great
Nordman themselves made a slower, acoustic version of the song on their album "Patina". Well worth checking out!
I've been waiting for this, great man!

Typ som jag skrev, fast jag var mer rak på sak.
Lil late but Nordman - I lågornas sken is one of my faves from them.
Jonathan har mer personlighet i sina ögonbryn än jag jag har i hela kroppen, det är lite orättvist
Hahaha thanks and I'm sorry 😆

Vilken är hans favorit?
Du måste säga vad hans favorit är, kan inte lämna ute det 😂😂😂
Björn Afzelius med ” tusen bitar” är en riktigt bra klassiker, måste lyssna in💛
Den låten är dansk från början "Tusind Sukker" av Anne Linnet, även versionen med Laleh är bra.
En låt med Afzelius annars som är bra är "Sång till friheten" som är ursprungligen en kubansk låt "El día feliz que está llegando"

Please make it! I would love to hear that!
Vintersaga -Jerry Williams!
This 👆
Är det någon som har hört den utan att först ha hört Monica Thörnells version först? Tror Jerrys version är svår att få in på första lyssningen.
Tror att jag hörde den med Ted Ström första gången men 80 talet är några år sen. Tror att Jonathan skulle uppskatta Jerkas version.
I do really like to see your reactions ... so many different beats in a fast language.

most of nordmans songs are simply amazing my favorite is På mossen
Great choice!

This sound is from the urban Swedish people. We have 2 languages in Sweden, Swedish and Same, rein deer people, from the very north.
I like your consept man ceep it UP! 👍😀🤝❤️🇸🇪
There is a slow paced piano version of this song that is quite excellent! sad and epic sounding :P
Garmarna: "Vedergäldningen" eller "Gamen".
Verkligen en klassiker!
Note the flute and fiddle... Wish they had a keyharpist.
nordman is a mix of folk, rock and etnopop
I said that exact statement in the video 😂
@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 oh.. lol
In case you haven listen to any other covers of this song, I recommend the cover of the norweigan group Plumbo, vandrern / vandringsman
Dem har en till version i deras album Patina, den är långsammare. Det är min favorit efter 'När den ena vill gå'
The song competed in melodifestivalen and won swedish hearts
The music is influenced by our viking heritage and the music and instruments from that time.
If you listen to their lyrics in general it's about the life of our Nordic ancestors.
I really like "Ännu glöder solen" with Nordman 🙂
Ja den är skön, och har en funkig känsla! 🥰
You gotta listen to Nordman - Strömkarlen. It's my favourite. :)
This is an ex/or in addict singing. Thats why is good. And allso because Py bäckman and Mats Wester
He was on drug rehab a mile from where I live... I hope he stays clean.
The "howling wolves sweater" of songs.

Hey man I know your list is long, but Nordmans best song is called ”BE MIG”. I think you would like that one, it’s a bit more powerful... Keep up the good work! Kärlek
"Be mig" är absolut deras bästa låt någonsin!!
If you want a slower song from Nordman I'd say "I midsommartid" or "Nu lever sommaren" but I doubt they count as classics
please react to "i midsommartid" by them, its my favorite
Jag tror det är dags för en till Nordman. I just listened to my old favorites and the next one has to be "Be mig".
