every singer regardless of genre needs to pay attention to his phrasing, vocal technique and technical nuances (breath points, posture, embouchure, etc.) Absolutely brilliant! What a set of lungs! The modern day opera! What a chest voice! im fricken jealous.... UBER CAROL! Fan-phucking-tastic
This was actually awesome. Vocals were insane and sounded amazing up high, orchestration felt great, way better than I was expecting from a random RUclips cover I found, not overdone, and actually supported the emotion being conveyed in each passage. The song had a European power metal feel without feeling over-the-top in terms of synths and happy-sounding music that I feel that genre can have. Great damn job, I appreciate this cover, tusen takk!
I don't have adequate words to tell you what happened to me @3:22 in the time line, he shifted gears, and was doing more than vocals, it was to me in the order of divine proclamation. Gifts like this has the ability to bring hope to the masses... Amazing Gift🔥🎯💪❤
I literally Can't stop listening to this and the video is so awesome I swear metal heads are the nicest and coolest people to know. This goes though all the emotions and ends with such passion. The main reason I love symphonic metal; so much passion. You did this song justice and I truly believe God is smiling and rockin' out in heaven to this song.
Thank you very much , just got done talk to my children and Christmas plans are shut down. Delta is going through my shop and my son’s shop as well,hopefully all of us will get through this so we can see the kids and grandkids….damn another family gathering in the shitter yes thanksgiving was scrapped. So now I’m depressed….but the smile from the little girl and the song, again thank you very much we’ll try again in January, stay safe, stay strong,don’t stop.
Very clean and professional very nice my whole family enjoyed this video ... And my family's a lot older they were around back in the 50s so you know how their styles were very nice Nils
just discovered your account while browsing Pagan's Mind music. Much love from the USA! You guys and Dream Theater are the sole inspiration for me still playing music out of highschool 12 years ago. It would be a dream to see you guys live. You're my all time favorite vocalist!!! Good luck with everything man and Merry Christmas!!
Thanks for this! What a great find! I miss Pagans Mind. Enigmatic Calling is one of the most touching and happy metal albums I own. Fantastic voice, man. It was awesome to hear you in Ayreon's "The Source" too. I sent a message to Arjen once saying he should include in you in one of his albums.. I don't know if my single voice I had any overall influence on that, but thank you so much for taking part in that awesome album.
Hey Nils, saw your interview with Peter last night. I had to check this out, didn't know about it. It's fantastic! We've been long time fans and your voice is amazing!! What I nice touch with your daughter! Can't wait until your new album comes out and to see you once again on tour!! Cheers!
Christmas Eve 2021 and I'm here again listening to you Nils and your stunning and dynamic vocals on this very beautiful song. Love & Light to you and your lovely family, Princess xx
Wauw............ Jaw dropped.... I am a huge fan of Pagan's Mind(still patiently and naive awaiting their next record) but I never saw this song.... Brilliant! Thnx Nils!
This is the only Christmas song I approve. Absolutely killer vocals, could not ask for more from mr. Nils K Ruen. Thank you kiitos, please be in contact if you wanna be on our next prog power opera album m
Love this! Since I was born again over the past few years, I just can’t listen to the metal I used to. Lately, I’ve been loving listening to Christmas Metal to fill the void. Your rendition of this is AMAZING! Thanks for using your talent for this! 🙌
damn, but the perfect way to listen to this is to close our eyes.. so powerful man.. God must have love u that much that he gave you that voice range.. jealus me.. God bless you and merry christmas!
Indescribably Great, Loss of words @3:22, my hair stands on end, Nils, You have a gift an annointing, Thank You, You are doing work of Divine order and proclaiming hope to masses, not sure if you know that, but this made s powerful shift in my life, keep it up sir
Been a huge fan of nils since the 1st pagans mind album came out way back, and his album with eidolon titled nightmare world was amazing. This was a beautiful version of my favorite song about jesus , you can be a metal head and still be a Christian, i listen to all metal except crap like limp bizkit and stuff like nirvana, im about real metal, not nu or alternative . Nils is up there with the best vocalist and im talking bout jorn lande, lance king, dc cooper, roy khan,matthew barlow, and the mighty trio of halford, dio, and bruce dickinson, there are more top metal vocalist but i put these guys on the top level, many have passed like dio and the amazing karl albert of vicious rumors. Nils has a unique sound that makes him instantly recognizable and a clean raw power that can shatter windows. Hope He has a new album coming soon. Nils god bless you and happy thanksgiving and merry Christmas
This is one of the best pieces of music I have heard in my entire life. Period.
Somebody please help me!
I can't stop watching this......
Me too! It’s just breathtaking!!!
This should be sung by him in Heaven with the ultimate band and angels flying all around in joy
Praise God for this. And blessings to this musician.
Yes, it truly is a great gift of God!
amen
CJRIST IS THE LORD! O NIGHT DIVINE!!!

This is the vocalist in the Norwegian metalband Pagan's Mind 🤘

Is he professional? He's really good. Great. Especially, his voice is very natural and pitch is so correct even in extremely high tones. Amazing.
He is the vocalist of the band, Pagans Mind.
He has also been involved with Ayeron and Eidolon.
he, if anybody, is professional
