Då Som Nu För Alltid 

For those unfamiliar with this band-- this was the way Kent announced their finish-- the last album and tour as one of Sweden's most successful bands. I'm not a "Kent expert" although I did enjoy them so this is my take-- many of the shots are of previous album covers and songs (the plane, the tiger, the running girl, the woman on horseback, woman in the tunnel, the dogs, etc.) It's as if Death is rounding up everything from the past and bringing it back together one last time, for one last march. Då Som Nu För Alltid means Then As Now Forever.

Referenser (i form av replikor): 00:01 Bron från albumomslaget "Tillbaka Till Samtiden". 00:10 Tunneln från musikvideo "Hjärta". 00:12 Bostadsområdet "Hagnesta Hill" som ger namn både till albumet och omnämns i låten "Ingenting" och i låten "Stoppa mig juni (lilla ego)". 00:14 Textraden i "Sjukhus": "Och de pekar mot en fond, giftgula moln. Orangea lampor, tysta silos, jetplans ångspår, bengrå torn". 00:17 Tunneln från musikvideo "Dom Andra". 00:19 Motorlöst flygplan som för tankarna till albumomslaget "Isola" och låten "747". 00:24 På vänstra portdörren finns en finsk flagga. En möjlig anspelning på att halva bandet har finskt påbrå. 00:35 Skogen från musikvideo "VinterNoll2". 00:43 Döden från albumomslaget "Du & Jag, Döden". 01:02 Tjejen från albumomslaget "Hagnesta Hill". 01:12 5 stycken vitklädda, bandets dåvarande medlemmar som alla spelade på Stockholm stadion 2003 där alla bar vitt. 01:16 Bron, hästen och kvinnan från albumomslaget "Tillbaka Till Samtiden". 01:23 Den finska flaggan anspelar på att hälften av bandets medlemmar har finskt påbrå. 01:24 Den vita tigern från albumomslaget "Vapen & Ammunition". 01:29 Insidan av Ferrarin från musikvideo "Dom Andra". Här finns även den vita tigern som backspegelsdekoration. 01:32 I mitten syns en flagga med symboler från albumomslag "Jag är inte rädd för mörkret". 01:35 Kvinnan som återfinns i musikvideo "Dom Andra". 01:36 Det syns onekligen ett kors som hundarna sliter sig loss ifrån. 01:38 Hundarna från albumomslaget "B-sidor 95-00" och singeln "Chans". (På albumet finns 2 hundar och här är det 4, samma antal som bandmedlemmarna). 01:39 Bengalerna som syns är av färgen Röd - samma som namnet på albumet. 01:40 Barnen från "Dom Som Försvann". 01:43 Längst till vänster syns en heraldisk lilja eller fleur de lis, som länge varit känd bland Kents symboler[1]. 01:57 De marscherar genom Stockholm där deras avslut blir. 02:19 Till vänster syns en mask. Referens till musikvideo "En Himmelsk Drog" Smink och klädsel är slående likt "Black Parade, My Chemical Romance". Kan en sammankoppling finnas? [1] Kents symboler kan läsas ut som "fleur de lis", "par", "häst" och "skata". Dessa bildar anagrammet: "Kristus, fräls hatade Pale". Pale är då den bleka häst som pryder omslaget "Tillbaka Till Framtiden" och nämns i låten "Godhet": "...En vulgär version av Bibelns bleka häst." Bland apokalypsens 4 ryttare symboliserar den bleka hästen för tidig död genom epidemier och hungersnöd... "och den som satt på den hade namnet Döden". - 01:51 Till höger syns en flagga med vad som ser ut som en apa eller dyl. Har du klurat ut vad det kan vara? Är det gorillan från Ingenting? Har du sett fler detaljer? Kommentera gärna.

Lost track of the number of times I've watched this now. Still wonderful! Wish it was longer.

Strange. I keep returning to this. The anthem. The escalation. The way that life's events are just thrown into one big river. The brutal finale with the drummer tapping out the final heartbeats. And so short - the shortness itself is so brutal

So how many people first ever heard of this now defunct band because this awesome video turned up in their feed?

Its impossible to watch this only once.

THIS SHOULD BE RELEASED ON SPOTIFY!. now please

7 years on and this still brings a massive lump to my throat. Simply sublime.

I'm 78 and I'll play this at least twice a week

to be honest, i NEVER ever heard of that band (to sad, shame on me) BUT some dude, postet a picture out of the vid + link on a imageboard, so i clicked on it, watched it... 30seconds in to it, i'm getting goose bumps a few seconds later, i cried... i cried becaused it touches me in a way that makes me feel good, i startet to smile an an overwhelming feeling overcomes me. i started to feel, luck, power and passion u know. i enjoyed it deeply and repeated it after and after. the last time i had such a feeling was on m83-outro.... this track, the music makes mee fell good in some sort of way, i'm a little bit depressed for some time but as soon as i listen to this, i start to watch forwards. good god i love when music hit the right spot, the right nerve and you can start imagine things!!! sometimes the ending is just the beginning! thank you so much!!!! (sorry for my bad english)

This is one of those songs I come back over and over again. 💔

The video is killer. The opening is sensational. Who would not follow a drummer going into a battle & a fight!?

i just keep coming back to watch this over and over, i think the internet was invented for this film clip,

I don't know what this group is. But even if they had been silent for 26 years and created only this clip, this time would not have been wasted ... A real masterpiece. Thank you

I keep coming back to this, like I’m late to a party. I love how the dogs and horses are so proud to be a part of this. Our best friends make us the best versions of ourselves.

One of the most beautiful music videos ever filmed. Beyond words.

Just discovered this band as this video popped onto my recommended. From a composition standpoint this is truly a masterpiece. The way it builds from just a single snare drum into a full on orchestra/choir is amazing. Not only that but the way the snare is constant throughout the song but not annoying. As each new layer is added the snare fades into the background. 10/10

Crazy for that woman.... Drums, the hair, the make-up... Watched this a dozen times.. I may need help, but I don't want it... **watches again** 💛

2024 who's still here❤

This pops up every few months for me. I watch it every time.

I find it fascinating that none of their other music, at least the pieces I have listened to, are anything like this one. This is an amazing piece of music and video. I have listened to it over a hundred times since I found it, by accident.

This has to be one of the best pieces of music AND video art that have ever been made. absolutely brilliant. gives me chills every time. i am very sad that the band stopped, but this finale was an absolute masterpiece.

They should have had this song on the album! Such a superb band so few folks outside of Sweden have never heard of.

So many years have passed and this is still pure intensity and shivers. I love everything about this song ❤

Greetings from Aalborg Denmark 🇩🇰 🖖 🇩 🇰 🖖🇩🇰 Salute!!! 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮 To my Sweedish / Norwegian/Finish Brothers !! 🇸🇪🇫🇮🇳🇴🇫🇮🇸🇪🇳🇴🇫🇮🇸🇪🇳🇴🇫🇮🇳🇴🇫🇮🇸🇪🇳🇴

When you stumble upon some unexpected fresh gems. This composition is brilliant and those lovely drums are Hella amazing.

This song came out the same year that my brother passed away. It's just come up as a recommendation now, 7 years and 15 days after the anniversary of that day and it still resonates so beautifully.

I have zero idea what's going here BUT I LOVE IT!!!!

Seriously, why can I not stop listening to this???? I am addicted. Its simple but deep!!

I love these journeys down the "youtube rabbit hole".

I do come back regularly just to appreciate the incredible musical talents and visuals shown in thi s one video .......... and, admittedly, to feel so sad that I never discovered them earlier, to be able to appreciate the indirect references to previous works. For the past decade, I've been far too busy watching videos of "current events" unfolding in the world to discover the true golden gems that were being created in the artistic realm.

Watch this every few weeks, no intentions of stopping

I have never listened to Kent's music except this one, which I've heard roughly 50,000 times.

WOW, I'm in America and 63 years old. I recently found this video and can't get enough of it. I have to watch it at least twice a week. So this band is gone?

Is there a bigger 'like' button?? Cos the more i hear this song the bigger my heart swells. Found by accident loved on purpose❣️

Kommer aldrig glömma konserten i göteborg, övertygad att alla grät i slutet det var så jävla fint. Kent för alltid mitt hjärta 🖤

I'm glad I'm not the only one just finding out about this video in 2020. Really cool! Wish they'd made more stuff like this one.

I just clicked this 'cause the thumbnail video of a girl running away from a marching band in skeleton-face looked awesome. Not disappointed. Off to the next Internet adventure!

Never heard of the group. Don't know their music, but I often will watch this video. Now for me it will be an archeological exploration into Kent.

I show and hear this tune since 7 years with my kids. This band should have put any kind of long version of it in Spotify and Deezer for years

This has to be the best end-scene a band could possibly ask for

I still can't watch this without getting tears in my eyes. Such a powerful video. I've seen them live 8 times. I miss them so much 🙏🏻 Thank you Kent for the music 🤍

Denne sangen hjalp meg å lære skarptrommen og de vanlige trommene. Jeg kommer fortsatt tilbake for å respektere denne sangen og hvor mye den hjalp meg, og jeg spiller fortsatt denne rytmen på scenen for å vise respekt. . English: This song helped me learn the snare drum and the regular drums. I still come back to respect this song and how much it helped me and I still play this beat on stage to pay my respects.

The references are very cleverly and subtly done. For example, the girl after one minute: her fashion style and hairstyle are clearly from early 2000s when Kent were really in the heyday. Like a typical Kent fan from that time 😊

This showed up completely unasked for on my feed, and left me breathless and in awe! Yet I have no idea what I just watched.

Jag lyssnar egentligen inte på Kent (älskar dock musiken i videon), men till och med jag blev tagen av den här. Mycket välgjord video med ett riktigt oväntat chockbudskap i slutet. Wow. Jag beklagar beskedet, Kentfans! Ni har mitt medlidande.

This video... Goes in the soul directly, run in your veins and no words will come out.

I am happy that i stumbled on this video by accident. It is beautiful.

This is an announcement video by the rock band Kent, the most famous rock band in Sweden of all time (Edit: Please noice that Abba are not a rock band). They're announcing that they'll do their last album and tour this year with this video. In this awesome video there's a lot of references to their old album covers, music videos and lyrics which makes the video even better if you know about them. For example the tiger, the airplane, the girl in the jeans jacket and the girl on the horse are all from album covers.

Well it's a shame I found these guys as they retired....but still that's a hell of a way to retire.

never heard of Kent before this year, i tried listening thru their songs on Spotify, but I say, this is by far the peak for me, I wish I could listen to it on Spotify too, so I could put it on repeat for days. Love it!

This is one of those songs that make me wish the world would come together. Like many others I had never heard of Kent or other Bands worldwide until recently. We are missing out on the cultures of other people's that could bring us together rather than push us apart.

Of course youtube recommends a band three years after it disbands. Good job, youtube!

Kent is and will always be my favourite band. I'm from Poland, I got to know Kent in 2007 thanks to 'Ingenting'. I have seen Kent 4 times live and I have to come to Sweden again, to see them for the last time :(

This is AWESOME, from the music to the visual. If this does not stir something inside you, then nothing will. watch this daily!

Years after. Clutches heart. I LOVE THIS.

This - is one of the most epic ending announcements of a band I have ever seen.

Mindestens einmal die Woche brauche ich dieses Video. Ich schaue es an und fühle mich gleich inspirierter, mutiger und ausgeglichener. Die Art von "Hoffnungslosigkeit", die sich auf dieser Welt so langsam aufbaut, verschwindet. Nur zusammen können wir die Welt wieder so bewegen das sie uns alle zusammenführt und die Leute entmachtet die das genaue Gegenteil wollen. I love this Video!

Can't find this on Spotify, so I'm back here. It is absolutely brilliant piece.

Me and my dad love this band. Just gotta thank my dad for telling me about this song. We all miss you, Kent.

I think this song has a meaning that many of us didn’t understand until now.

Whole history of Kent, so beautifully constructed. This is also part of my youth packed in couple of minutes. Four years later, this still made me cry.

This song gets me chills and my blood pumping!

Never ever forgotten in any way- especially even in Germany, especially here! - so please: *KEEP GOING ON, PLS" !!!

I'm fascinated. That kind of memoriam to one kult band. No words here to describe respect. To young people who made this. RESPEKT. ❤👍

I'm glad I got this in my recommendations regardless how old it is or that they're not together anymore. I came here a couple of weeks ago and never left...

This song brings me through this terrible pandemia. Thanks am still here.

00:01 The bridge from the album cover "Tillbaka Till Samtiden". 00:10 The tunnel from the "Heart" music video. 00:12 The residential area "Hagnesta Hill" which gives name to both the album and is mentioned in the song "Ingenting" and in the song "Stoppa mig juni (little ego)". 00:14 The text line in "Hospital": "And they point to a fund, poison yellow clouds. Orange lights, silent silos, jet steam trails, bone gray towers". 00:17 The tunnel from the "Dom Andra" music video. 00:19 Motorless airplane that brings to mind the album cover "Isola" and the song "747". 00:24 There is a Finnish flag on the left gate door. A possible allusion to the fact that half the band has a Finnish accent. 00:35 The forest from the "WinterNoll2" music video. 00:43 Death from the album cover "Du & Jag, Döden". 01:02 The girl from the "Hagnesta Hill" album cover. 01:12 5 pieces dressed in white, the band's former members who all played at the Stockholm stadium in 2003 where they all wore white. 01:16 The bridge, the horse and the woman from the album cover "Back to the Present". 01:23 The Finnish flag alludes to the fact that half of the band's members have Finnish ancestry. 01:24 The white tiger from the "Weapons & Ammunition" album cover. 01:29 The inside of the Ferrari from the "Dom Andra" music video. There is also the white tiger as a rear-view mirror decoration. 01:32 In the middle you can see a flag with symbols from the album cover "I'm not afraid of the dark". 01:35 The woman found in the "Dom Andra" music video. 01:36 There is undeniably a cross that the dogs tear themselves away from. 01:38 The dogs from the album cover "B-sides 95-00" and the single "Chans". (On the album there are 2 dogs and here there are 4, the same number as the band members). 01:39 The Bengals seen are of the color Red - the same as the name of the album. 01:40 The children from "The Ones Who Disappeared". 01:43 On the far left is a heraldic lily or fleur de lis, which has long been known among Kent's symbols[1]. 01:57 They march through Stockholm where their end will be. 02:19 A mask is visible on the left. "A Heavenly Drug" music video reference Make-up and clothing are strikingly similar to "Black Parade, My Chemical Romance". Could there be a connection? [1] Kent's symbols can be read as "fleur de lis", "pair", "horse" and "magpie". These form the anagram: "Christ, save the hated Pale". Pale is then the pale horse that adorns the cover of "Back to the Future" and is mentioned in the song "Goodness": "...A vulgar version of the Bible's pale horse." Among the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse, the pale horse symbolizes early death through pestilence and famine... "and he who sat on it was named Death". - 01:51 On the right you can see a flag with what looks like a monkey or something. Have you figured out what it could be? Is that the gorilla from Nothing? Have you seen more details? Feel free to comment. i just translated @erasim0s post so that i could read it in english.

One of the coolest videos on earth!

Бесподобно!... И в музыкальном плане, и видеоряд... Шедевр!

Amazing i Love it, the perfect Song to start a Revolution!

I thought I've heard the best of Kent, but this, this is not Kent music as know it, this is at another level! I can listen and watch this over and over. Well done Kent! 👽

So, I discover them in 2019 and they are long gone. Damn!

I never saw this band live, but knew their music well. I always get sad and emotional seeing this clip. Hail KENT.

Egal ob man es sieht, oder nur hört. Es ist und bleibt einfach episch! Bitte mehr

I will never forget you. I had dreamt of visiting and studying in Sweden ever since when I became a big fan of you (in 2007). I made awesome memories for many years with my friend who is also a big fan(it is pretty rare in South Korea) when I had bad and boring days - as many Korean secondary school students go through. And then, finally I visited Sweden last year after I graduated from university, one of my bucketlist items achieved. I traveled in many Swedish cities with their music, and bought their new album 'Tigerdrottningen' at the Pet Sounds, in Södermalm, Stockholm. (Another item left in my bucketlist(about Sweden) is to get a Ph.D. in Sweden. I hope it comes true, too.) At that time, I dreamed that they would last at least five years or more, maybe forever - in the raptures of happiness(because I bought their CD in their homeland) -. Yesterday, they came out with this video 'Då som nu för alltid'. It makes me cry. I know, I have to accept it. Yes, you guys will last forever in my mind as you are, as now. Perhaps, I will go there again this year to see their last tour. Your songs are still my pillar and keep me going when I feel tired of my days. Uhhh, cannot describe how much I love you in my bad English! Literally, I LOVE you guys. Tack för alla era låtar. A sincere fan from South Korea

Пролистав долго вниз, к удивлению, не увидел своего отзыва. Слушаю этот супер- "марш" каждый день почти 4 месяца. Слов нет. Мощь и сила, браво шведы. Кто бы сомневался в их музыкальных рок-традициях.

That snare drum. Never heard a song based around the snare drum. Amazing!

You said it ,, very hard to watch,, eventwo times,, I just keep it at least once a week.. I've been enjoying it since it came out..excellence personified!!!

when a group retires, this is how they should always say goodbye.

O the power of one song. I just downloaded every album, single, B-side, mix, mention and reflection Kent ever put out. wow.

We need an entire album of this type of music!

Классно!!! Так держать!!!🎉🎉🎉

This is a rarity, a diamond in the rough of music. Honestly, I rarely ever like a song AND the video but the video made the song even better. I love this

Kent was maybe sending a message, but it is a signal stay together - we are all the same. I play this song every evening from my balcony.

Étrange ! Et plaisant... Enfin, une pépite émerge de l'algorithme !

2016 wasn't ready for this kind of art, but here we're in 2023 people can now relate their realities with this masterpiece.

this is weird. i heard this song once, and went back to listen to it again. and right now i wish for an entire hour repeat version for this. love this song

I wish I could give this another upvote every time I watch it.

Can you hear the vastness of it,can you feel it...incredible...

Beautiful just near as much feeling in this as in the piece with the lyrics. The ly rica hits home.

RU-vid: You might like this. Me: WTF? Me: Locked on auto repeat.

Hoppas att någon av albumets låtar har den här melodin, för tbh den var extremt grym

incredible song and video... masterpiece. Fascinating. I keep hearing and watching it over and over.

Watched this video multiple times since I discovered it. ❤

After all these years, this still makes my hair stand on end❤️

This song is from 5 years ago. Why is this being played in my music list? Why does it bring a tear of joy to my eye? I've never heard of this band before?

Sehr gut! Danke!

Why do I keep being drawn back into watching the final video of a band I have never heard of and that showed up randomly on my suggested YT videos? I had to read deep into the comments to find out what this video even meant!

I listen to this track over and over, but I just want more. Unfortunately, this seems to be unique.
