    You have to love the internet. This gig had 40 people, 2 sheep, and a small gathering of seagulls (lucky things!). Now it's been seen over 9 million times! Granted, 2 million of those are probably by me, but it's still an incredible thing.

    I am Norwegian and I could not be prouder of my culture. All of the Nordic peoples are passionate.The music is a large part of our culture. It is the spirit of the Earth speaking through her children. This music is spiritually awakening and awe inspiring. The lands are beautiful and the history is ancient, deep, and rooted. Truly strong and powerful blood flowing through me I will say this though; I know that people today tend to pride themselves in whose problems are bigger- but what connects us as human beings, is that in our suffering- we are fundamentally the same- we all feel hurt, we all struggle at some point. So I realize that what I struggle with, what you struggle with isn't cause for pity but empowerment- when we harness that same fundamental aspect of humanity within ourselves we can unlock our true potential- at the end of the day we are all equals

      Not to be a buzzkill, but how about being proud of something that you actually achieved? Being born in a certain race or a country, doesn't make you any special. I wouldn't be proud of being born with moles in my back or with predisposition to type II diabetes. That's how random and inconsequential is to be proud of your nationality and ethnicity.

      Trill MT are you proud of your father? When you were a kid did you brag that “my dad can beat up your dad”? There is more than one type of pride. I am proud of my race in the same way children are proud of their parents. I want to live up to my ancestors hopes, and I am proud to be connected to such a wonderful culture. This doesn’t make me a hateful person in the slightest.

    I am Bavarian German. I know Germany is not part of Scandinavia…and on top of that Bavaria is south-east in Germany amongst the Alps - so even further from the north… but I know we are all Germanic, and we flourished in tribes. This music makes me feel a certain way. That is for sure. I love how it makes you feel cold but in a good way, like the cold north is part of Scandinavian culture, and how the high, snowy mountains of the alps are a part of ours. This doesn’t just feel mystical, I’m not a foreigner, it’s definitely actually home.

    Lyrics
    Spellbound I am, I am
    The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me
    Spellbound deep in my soul, in my soul
    In my heart burns a sizzling fire, a sizzling fire
    Spellbound I am, I am
    The wizard has enchanted me, enchanted me
    Spellbound in my heart's root, my heart's root
    My eyes gaze to where the wizard stood

    This Song resonates heavily with my spiritual body, the one that never dies. While our physical and mental bodies perish eventually the spiritual body gets reborn into a new vessel after a while. You might have no clear memories of your previous incarnations but sometimes you come across things that spark an echoe with the past, this Song is such a thing. That has to be the greatest deed music is capable of doing. Eivør is blessed in some way.
