LYRICS:
Skellige Winds Gavin Dunne 2016
Skellige winds a wild a wild
Skellige winds a wild
Carry us on the tide the tide
Conquer the hills and isles
Oars in the morn and a tankard in the eve
Shores ever churn and the anchors ever heave
Oars in the morn
On the weather to weave
Skellige winds a wild a wild
Skellige winds a wild
Up on the peak unite, unite
Tether and reconcile
Borne through the storms, grant the rudders and oars relief
Forever warm pass the mutton & pour the mead
Borne through the storms
On the weather to weave
Waves a’roaring
Kindred on the sea
Sails a’soaring free
Waves a'roaring
War & revelry
Sails a'soaring free
Winter’s frosted hues
Painting Freya’s breast
Shelter in the womb, ever blessed
Waves a’roaring
Kindred on the sea
Sails a’soaring free
Waves a'roaring
War & revelry
Sails a'soaring free
Skellige winds a wild a wild
Skellige winds a wild

This sounds like a song you'd hear a Skellige sailor mumbling to himself as he works in game.
And here I thought we were done with the Witcher.
Then I remembered: why be done with the Witcher when you can not?
The legacy of the Witcher shall live on in our hearts.
Man I hope they make another witcher game, they just kept getting better instead of the usual where it gets worse
+k1ll3rM there is probably no Witcher game in the next 5 years but if they release another Witcher game then without Geralt:(
Well we do have the next expansion coming out which looks amazing. So you won't be done with it for a while.
Erm Blood and Wine?
Rhyme schemes approved
Finally someone noticed!!!! :D
loved the overwatch rap you two did Dan. Amazing flow.
If you approve this, it has to be approved.
Now if only someone important approved 😎
wow, fucking savage, 4edgy6me
" He approached her slowly. He smelled of the sea, salt, tar, and fatigue. She looked into his bright eyes, and immediately her ears rang with the war cry of berserkers, the fragmenting of shields, the clanking of swords and axes. The roar of the slain. The roar of the people who jumped from the burning ‘Daria’ into the sea.
'Yennefer of Vengerberg.'
'Crach an Craite, Earl of Skellige.'
She made a slight bow before him."
....
"The Skellige Islands has quite often granted asylum to people who were persecuted by the law. The islands do not lack options and opportunities to atone for debts by hard work, courage, sacrifice, and blood." Witcher, The Tower of the Swallow.
"The 'Daria' is missing..."
Didn´t you say you were burned out and taking a break?
Gavin: Okay brain we can take a break now, calm.
Brain: LOL no here´s a song
He said he was going to take the break after this song was done.
He also said that there's a Blood and Wine song coming, so who knows what's to belive?
Serpens Viktorijewicz von Arma He still needs to play it. and that will be a couple of days on its own. He said he will do it not that it's coming soon.

Also, before y'all ask - yes I'm playing Blood & Wine and yes - there'll probably be one last Witcher song. But later. For now, enjoy this one!
I was expecting only a Touissant song, but seeing as how this is a bonus song, I thank you.
Nice!
My first thought was, you started play witcher again. :D
Thanks Gav. Certainly didn't expect this as I thought nothing could top Wake the White Wolf of Lady of Worlds but I stand corrected. Btw how are you finding Blood and Wine?
That's awesome to see Gophergaming helping you out. Awesome Song Gavin, can't wait for your newest album :).
*listening for the first time* - oh, nice
*listening for the second time* - this... is... great...
*listening for the third time* - SKELLIGE WINDS A'WILD A 'WILD!!!
Your songs seem to get better and better with every single time I listen to them... maaaaaaagic
TETHER AND RECONCILE!!
Kasia Król is
Firekeeper Wolf e
YOU'RE DEAD WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE
@@nobody4603 OARS IN THE MORN, AND A TANKARD IN THE EVE~!
Goddamit I freakin love The Witcher world
Im surprised you dont make more songs like this
Your voice is perfect for the Norse/Medieval style
I just cant stop watching and singing. Awsome !
Time to get back to the Witcher III. Thanks Gavin.
This tavern feeling ain´t going away any time soon... like a more refined versión of Nord Mead, fitting with the spirit of the Skelligers and their wild lifestyle (Like their winds :P). Rock on and enjoy your rest, Gav!!! YOU MORE THAN EARNED IT, YOU MAGNIFICENT IRISH WONDER!!! \m/
6 songs in a month.... definitely time for a break I think :D Pretty burned out now.
How do you even manage it, dude? I can't even make ONE song in a month XD
He's the TRUE Jesus of Music..that's why xD
+Undead Djinn Obsessive personality + insomnia lol
+miracleofsound Take a break and enjoy all the new games coming out. You deserve it. :D
Level 7 is shaping up to be your best album yet. I don't think I've disliked a single song of yours this whole year!
Tell us your secrets, o' Master Bard.
Some practice, some hard work & effort, more practice, years of experience and more practice :)
Heh, and I'm sure some natural talent doesn't hurt at all. Keep up the great work, Gav!
+miracleofsound Your work is amazing Will you write any songs for the new Witcher 3 DLC, Blood and Wine?
+Funny4Cast
"Also, before y'all ask - yes I'm playing Blood & Wine and yes - there'll probably be one last Witcher song. But later. For now, enjoy this one!
+Lyon TheGreat Thx 😆
I don't know how to describe it perfectly, but there's something really interesting that you did with the background vocals in this one.
Usually with a song like this, you'd expect the background vocals to stay kind of the same throughout the verse, but they often change up at the end of their line and create a more uplifting sound than they usually would.
Like I said....it's hard to explain. I hope everyone knows what I mean, I don't know enough music terms to describe that stuff.
It does sound really good, though, and that's what's important.
Yeah the background vocals delve in and out of following the lead and doing upper/lower harmonies :) I felt like it added a little extra melodic flavour as the main vocal stays on the same three notes a lot
miracleofsound Gavin...stop making me love you so much.
But you're completely right, it adds some more melody to it instead of keeping it on the same note for too long, which is a great way to keep it more interesting to listen to. (no matter how many times I hit that replay button ;) )
You're a wonderful guy, Gav. Hope I get to meet you one day (and touch that glorious beard that, honestly, makes me just a tad jealous)
No matter how often I listen to this, it's still awesome.
And no matter how often I click on it, every time I see that little black dot in the top left corner of the thumbnail, which is probably a bird, I think there is something stuck on the screen.
I love Skellige so much.
kathleen bainbridge Yep, wanna live there :d
Skellige is an awesome area to explore and the music is very atmospheric.
...and then I ran into a cave full of farting trolls and had a laughing fit...
How do you keep doing it? Every musician makes a bad song at some point, but you seem to ignore that and just make one excellent song after another...
check "Get the gang back together"
@@heathhertter5102 That too is a good song tho
Well to each their own
When Gavin makes a bad song it shall herald the end of the world. The sun shall die, the armies of hell will invade and those beings once mercifully sleeping will awaken to devour the world.
Man, Gav, the ease with which you seem to imitate, or rather, utilize every genre of music there is, whilst giving it your own twist and creating such beautiful ... insights into what you sing about and music itself is just .... baffling.
Thank you very much :) Variety is what makes music fun for me!
I have to thank you, man!
How could anyone dislike this? It's Miracle of Sound! How can you NOT appreciate his talent? Oh well...their loss.
The bouzouki might be awesome, but the drum/bassline is what made this great for me. Smashing :)
You, sir, are a fantastic composer. Having listened to your other songs, I swear you get better every time. Already a big Witcher fan but songs like these make me realise what a masterpiece it is - and how it inspires others to make masterpieces like this. Thanks for this!
Thank you :)
Best game I've ever played, now i'm waiting for a beautifull song about Toussaint. Great song
Jet Fuel Heart, Hell To Pay, Here We Go Again, Forever Flame and now this, all in one month! You´re on fire lately.
Man, I would love to hear an entire folk song album done by you, this stuff is bloody good.
I still need to finish the actual game...
me too.
And you will always do...
Waiting with the rest of my game til I get my GTX1080 so I can REALLY enjoy it :)
+LordCrisp me too
I still need to finish 1 and 2 so I can play 3. And build my new PC so I can even run 3...
I wonder if Gav likes the Witcher series. It's hard to tell from his songs.
he is doing music on games what he like and what he played :) so Skyrim , The Witcher and others he like and i think he love these two,
Well, he created 3 song about Witcher, so i suppose, yesm he likes it
+Simon de Mist Technically he made 5 because there's Silver and Steel, Wake the White Wolf, Lady of Worlds, Skellige Winds, and Ploughing a Troll, which he said was inspired by the songs they sang in taverns.
Ploughing a Troll? I haven't heard that one yet, but it sounds like a good laugh. I'll have to check it out
+Simon de Mist I think he likes it(in his post he said that he plays blood and wine so he plays witcher 3, and when someone is playing some game he probably likes it
One of your best pieces. Love it.
Oh my god! It's so cool to realize that Gopher helped with this video! Love him too!
This song made me want to take hold of an axe in one hand and a beautiful wench in the other and dance drunk until the morn!
"Skellige winds a' wild, a' wild! Skellige winds a' wild!"
Aye!!! Ye deserve tea have me buy ye an ale!
OcularCentaur42 Aye brother! I raise horn and axe in your name and fortunes! Mead for we who take to the sea!
Aye brother! I raise my tankard to ye, and will gladly join with a curvy, dark haired wench of my own!
Gav has gone Full Irish again. And it is AWESOME!
Very good, Gavin, you've done it again! Another one to my playlist!
My favourite artist singing a song about my favourite place in a video game? Yes, please.
I'm new to The Witcher but fell instantly in love with it. Skellige is the main reason why my game is still nowhere near complete (apart from my obsessive need to do every single side quest and Witcher hunt) I've only left twice since getting there and that was for Qwent and running out of quests.
All your Witcher songs- so good
So, I hope this isn't a rude question or anything. I'm genuinely curious.
I don't normally hear your native accent during your songs, but here it's quite prevalent, even focused on. It makes me wonder. When you sing normally, do you make any attempt to hide/mask your native accent, or is it just the nature of singing that makes it harder to hear, and thus, you have to emphasize it for songs like this? I suppose I only ask because I've noticed with many other people that their regional accents seem to 'disappear' when singing, and it makes me wonder if it's just a byproduct of proper singing techniques (and the act of singing words just makes it harder to 'hear' them) or not.
It's a bit of both. Q4: miracleofsound.net/2014/08/faq/
From the first sound of the song i felt chills on my spine. Thanks Gav.
GREAT Music made by Miracle of Sound AWESOME
And this just make Skellige even more beautiful
Doubt you'll see this, Gav, but another masterpiece. I've loved the variety and complexity you've produced over time, and the subject of your songs definitely appeals to me. Definitely one of the best to date, you just seem to get better with every one!
Thank you very much :)
This is just so good
Incredible as always! Love your work Gav x
Just thought your Witcher songs were over when.... "What?! Another one! Awesome!" Great job dude!
Damn it Gav, you have done it again you magnificent musical bastard. Time to listen to this on repeat for the rest of my life.
This is so AWESOME!!!
I can perfectly picture a huge feast in the great hall of Kaer Trolde with Skellige warriors all chanting this song. Some are locking arms with each other singing and dancing. Others are brawling. Mead spilled and food flying everywhere. Tables knocked over. Spattered blood and broken teeth across the floor. Axes and tankards held high. Far better than any Continental banquet 🍻
And once more, another awesome Witcher 3 song!!! It's like you guys can never suck at making music! :D
In Miracle of Sounds is only one person who is creating it :D :D and sometimes his girlfriend (or just friend) too.
I don't think he's ever done a song with his girlfriend. To my knowledge, the female artists he's collabed with were Mulaka and his drinking buddy from "Evacuate" whos name I don't remember.
Don't forget Lisa Foiles in "Edge of the World," his Rise of the Tomb Raider song.
Sharm, Ailin Kennedy, Lorna Dollery, Maluka, and Lisa Foiles are all the people who have sung in his songs, I think.
Man oh man this has been an awesome month of content. Jet Fuel Heart and Hell to Pay instantly clicked and became new favourites, Here we Go Again and Forever Flame have really grown on me, and this... this is just immediately brilliant. It's got the same perfect rhythm that Nord Mead has, but more serious, and shows just how far you've come since you made that song. All the layers work brilliantly on one another, and just... just... it's a damn awesome song Gav, that's all I have to say :D
Thank you very much :) Glad you like the newer stuff so much!
+miracleofsound can you make a far harbor song
Just thanks bro, for bring it to us!
AMAZING! Can't stop listening to this!!
Another wonderful song. It perfectly embodies Skellige
Thank you! Skellige is very similar to my home country Ireland so it felt natural
+miracleofsound That's what I thought when I first saw the ring of Kerr- Skellige...... It's just soooo similar to Ireland and familiar to everybody who has lived in Ireland..... Awesome Work once again Gav! I'm deeply impressed!!!!!!!!!
miracleofsound I can imagine that it wpuld have been almost nostalgic for that reason
We're a bit more advanced technologically than Skellige, but yeah.
You just made my day Mr. !
I literally started playing this game for the first time 5 days ago, and I'm hooked. Clocked in 25 hours already, still so much to see! I love it! And then this song comes out, almost by coincidence! Nice :D
Only 25 hours in 5 days? I got 19 hours in one day. xD
some people have life ;)
Cumstar Is Cancer Some people get regular days off.
I started playing the game last weekend as well!
Jokairou94 Even on a day off, 19 hours?? There's only 24 hours in a day, y'know. 19 hours in a day is ungodly xD Wow!
I'm a student, and I have finals in two weeks, else I would've played a LOT more, and am planning to this summer.
Jesus how does it keep getting better? You've outdone yourself again sir well done
man! your Celtic music is soooooooooo good! All of your music is good, but damn, your Celtic is beautiful! keep up the good work Gav. ^_^
From all the areas you can visit in the Witcher 3, Skellige is by far my most favorite one;)
Nord mead!!! Oh wait, wrong video.
Love this
+++
I was just listening to Nord Mead while reading this, I just realised this was the Skellige comments. :D
nord beer!
Song hasn't even started and I already hit the like button, probably cause I know I'm not gonna be disappointed.
Man, you never cease to amaze! Keep up the good work! :)
under 301 club *smokes pipe*
*Back in my day*
Yet another awesome fucking Witcher song. Excellent work, Gavin!
Yet another amazing song Gav, keep it up!
Another great song. I really like your Witcher songs. Thanks Gav!
Awesome!!!
greetings from Poland!!!! :D :3
Brought to you by the Skellige Tourism Board
Guys i just found you out and i have to say you´re brilliant ... your songs are just... can´t even describe it :D ... keep going don´t stop! :)
You do such a tremendous job on this song.
*Is bored to death*
*Goes on RUclips*
*Sees "SKELLIGE WINDS by Miracle of Sound, 8 minutes ago"*
Oh man.
I have a copy of W3 but I'm too scared to start that I can't stop playing :):/
JUST DO IT
Don't hesitate any longer, you are missing out if you do. But if you have not played The Witcher 2, I would recommend playing that first because of it's awesome story and bad ass combat, but it's entirely up to you.
+Grand Canyon Moses lol he/she is already worried about witcher 3 gameplay time xD
JUST DO IT
A valid concern, but I highly recommend it. Such an amazing game with one of the best in game worlds ever built. It's so authentic feeling, so lived in.
THANKS for another great witcher song! Needed this!
as someone who has yet to play the witcher 3 all of your music for it really makes me want to play it
Norse + pirates = win.
Norse + Pirates = Vikings lol
Exactly
More like the Scottish + Norse.
Irish, technically :)
Norse + pirates = Vikings , hookers and blackjack
And hereby The Witcher 3 becomes the second game to have 3 songs by Gavin, as far as I know. Or the first to have 4, if you count both versions of "Wake the white wolf" as separate ones :)
nope first 4 song have Skyrim :)
+Dominik Miso there's gonna be another Witcher song coming for the new expansion, so until then ;-)
gorocz what i now search he made 5 Skyrim songs :D
Dominik Miso What? How did I miss that? Hmm...
Dominik Miso
Oh yeah, now that I did a quick search, I guess I forgot about Winter Still. Probably because it's instrumental, so I don't have Gavin's voice connecting it to him :-)
You are literally a miracle on RUclips...
such a great piece of music, your witcher songs are the best you made
It'd be a very big undertaking, that you might not have time for...but an entire Witcher album would be incredible :)
MasterHumus hmm, I don't know. That world has a LOT of history that would make some really awesome songs.
YES? Sing the ballad of the witcher gerd
He made a song called Ploughing a Troll ... Go figure .
He also may get sued.
I did not know that. In these days you usually get sued for the simplist of things by large companies.
I wish his music could be included in the new Netflix show!
Why though it would be like adding adding violets on shit. It would not help.
Great song Gav! Hope you relax well during your break. You deserve it with the amount you've worked recently
You're great ! Thanks from Belgium !
This reminds me very generally of Sovngarde Song, with a stronger soul.
Очень нравится. Молодец.
I have no clue why, but since a few days I've been listening to ALL of your songs on repeat and they just do not seem to bore me at all, even better, they seem to make everything I do more fun! Thank you for your awesome creations, I hope to enjoy all of your future songs aswell, and I'm actually not in doubt that I most definitely will enjoy them! ;)
Thanks for cheering me up, like you always do. One desperate day less for me.
Fuck I miss playing this game
Just passed 350 hrs . this game is really one of the few games these days that has lived up to its hype. Trying to finish off the last trophies and quests before i start the expansion pack .
Mother of awesomeness of all songs O___o
Bless ya, Mr. Dunne!!
Please. Please let there be a Metal Verion of this
No i pięknie.
Mount & Blade FTW
Nie ma to jak już 3 Piosenka z Wiedźminem 3 Prosto od Gavina :D
Tak Plasnie
Mount & Blade! It's ALMOST harvesting season!
I WILL DRINK FROM YOR SKOLL
IT'S BEEN FOUR YEARS ALREADY. I REMEMBER WHEN THIS CAME OUT
Been waiting for this one for a while. :) haven't even watched it yet, but can already give a well done MoS due to the fact every song is always amazing
I'd like to see how you fare on making songs in the Final Fantasy game series. Mainly Final Fantasy VII and it's remake. And even Final Fantasy XV.
comment from the future, the FFVIIR songs are absolutely magical
Я тебя обожаю и твои песни.
О, соотечественник, привет
хех здоров)
SPEAK ENGLISH!!!!!
Земляк
+Drakon66 killer
No entiendo?
Excellent work once again Gavin! You somehow manage to surprise me... again!
This is just fun to listen to when do homework for school. Thank you Miracle of Sound for the amazing track!
Ein sehr schönes Lied ,wie immer ^^
Ich liebe deine Songs ,ich bekomm meist richtig Bock zu zocken
The song is beautiful, they are always beautiful
Gav ,I loves your songs , everytime I heard them ,I wanna want to play the games
Your amazing ^^
So ,why u not playing one the games con at Köln ( I didn't know the English name 😅 )
I think u will really promote every game u sing about it
(I'm sorry ,when I make grammar fails ,English isn't my mothertongue ,so don't Lynch me ,please ;-) )
Das Wort für "Köln" im Englischen ist "Cologne"
Außerdem hast du denselben Vornamen wie ich, sehe ich gerade.
Da findet man ein mal einen Deutschen hier, und dann fühlt man sich geklont. Hilfe.
+Azrael _ ( ^ω^) danke ,Namensvetter
Cologne ...werde ich mir (versuchen) zu merken
lukas dane Kein Problem, ansonsten frag einfach Google-san, der hilft dir bestimmt.
+Azrael _ für einzelne Wörter ist der translator ja zu gebrauchen ..gerade so 😋
LYNCH?!!(grabs rope)
Великолепное. Сподвигло меня на перевод.
Perfect! This is my translation to Russian.
Над Скеллиге дуют ветра, ветра,
Дикие с моря ветра.
Волны прилива несут несут
Нас покорять острова!
На веслах с утра и с кружкой перед сном,
Фьорды без конца, якоря на дне морском.
Вёсла с утра.
Вольный ветер позовём!
Над Скеллиге дуют ветра, ветра,
Дикие с моря ветра.
Свяжет, сплотит нас вода и гора,
Вместе и навсегда!
Плыть через шторм, нам помогут наши снасти,
Всегда нас согреет кружка мёда с жирным мясом,
Плывя через шторм,
Вольный ветер позовём!
Рёв свирепых волн,
Вышли в море кланы,
Вольно реет парус!
Льдом зима рисует,
На груди у Фрейи -
Славься её чрево, нас храни!
Рёв свирепых волн,
Вышли в море кланы,
Вольно реет парус!
Над Скеллиге дуют ветра, ветра,
Дикие с моря ветра.
Awesome as always!
So has anyone actually finished this game?
The main Storyline, yeah, but you can't complete 100% this game. There's to much things to do.
Twice now
Oh don't worry...I will get there...Eventually...
i have twice
Yes, twice :D
Please make for blood and wine
I've listened to this song multiple times and just now I discover that gopher captured the video... Cool!
Remember that time, when The Witcher did Skyrim better than Skyrim did Skyrim?
was there a time when skyrim did skyrim better than the witcher did skyrim?
@@guy3nder529 Skyrim had a bug where giants would fling you into the sky which had to be re-added to the game. I would only count this and maybe the map.
Tbh I'm surprised there are no lines in Irish
Either way, this is so great!
The Skelligans are not Irish they are very much Vikings.
Viking, aye, but with heavy Celtic influence too, as well as heavy Irish accents, a lot of Irish-sounding words. Have you seen the druids, and their decor? It's a synthesis of both types of culture.
I said what I said because the Skelligan accent is Irish.
skellige is based on scottland
How so? Their believes and legends, as well as general look are abviously influenced by scandinavian culture. Berserks , their so called ''economy'', wild hunt and ragnarok. I don't see a scottish connection.
The Continent is pretty much based on UK , the empire is south ( Nilfgaard / England ) and the Northern Kingdoms ( Scotland / Ireland )
Ahhh ...a new Witcher 3 song from miracleofsound and Blood and Wine is just around the corner. Good times before us.
