HumbleVladimirTheGreat Is it cat?

@@CountObvious its really expensive

@@HotlineMilwaukee they can be its also apparently not extremely difficult to learn its kinda nice to see that its kinda coming back

oh, and the skull.

A foeman's skull...

I finally found the English version of a Heilung song... It's also a great Viking song, although it's not as peaceful as this. I say have a look at it. :D ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zeP2q4YAIXA.html

a cat!

Probably wouldn't even need to ask at that point. Just let them show up and be like "I have a skull!" and they'd be instantly popular lmfao.

Mad love from a Scandinavian, bro. Keeping the tradition alive 😉

I love the cultures of the native americans, and it is so fascinating that my ancestors way of life interacted with yours a millenia ago! Mad love from Sweden!

She has a lil kitty to !

@@josselindeborde1264 Of course i forgot the most significant thing. We love cat lovers.

The video and editing was outstanding too

Most definitely she sounds very beautiful 😍

and she rescues cats

Sweet, that makes it even better. Thanks for the info.

Do you happen to have a source where I can read about this? it sounds interesting!

Проще спросить на чём она не умеет играть )

Так и на живой кошке тоже играла

Oooo what are the words to that version

I had no idea this was a folk song!? That is so cool!

This song is Norse not celtic

And the original version is in Norse.

@@Shaurbox Yeah its a Nordic folk song written by Egil Skallagrimsson from Iceland. My mother sang it to me to show me more of my Nordic heritage. I'm Swedish and Finnish on my fathers side and shes Dutch.

My ancestors came from Denmark and descendants of Scandinavians who colonized Ireland. We may have spread out across the lands, but we all have some important things in common, like our love of sharing beautiful music!

Its one of the best series in a long time. Im not even viking but the other day I built a boat and sailed to England to raid it. But when I got to London I turned back. Nothing good there.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

In the past, Russians and Scandinavians had similar cultures, gods, runes and even a calendar.

That was amazing loved it the music the makeup there is one thing I'm sure there's an old witch song are you a witch fantastic that was really good

Agreee

me too

I thought I was the only one. Ever notice how it seems to be a different cat in each?

Haha same

So this is what little piggies grunt about! -Floki

уверены что Алина вживается в образы, а не они в неё вселяются? ;)

@@mr.wolcharish всего лишь?

The fact, that she played the bones of something as an instrument.

forgot to mention she's extremely beautifull as well...

The fact that she plays pretty much every instrument ever created. Amazing talent

Cats play an important role in Norse culture/Mythology

@@odinsantos8749 she is indeed

You wouldn't say skull you would say skol

Bt you also missed saying you played the cat. Lol.

I play in a band. What instrument? All of them.

I was a little surprised she played the hurdy-gurdy, rather than the nyckelharpa. I have seen one of those "bowed lyres" before, it's a Finnish instrument called the Jouhikko. I'd have liked to hear it in Old Norse. After all of that, I'd actually say she did a very good job.

@@resourcedragon the bowed lyre is also known as a tagelharpa

My little brother can do it with one string. It's ridiculous. Some people just have the knack, then of course they add loads of practice to that.

Even her cat is an instrument!

Now that you mention it, I wonder what she could come up with in my toolshed.

Our God has spoken

Yes, Sir.

The legend himself.

RU-vid's star musician. Yessir.❤

You're breathtaking

it has an extreme Hellblade vibes, thus ritualistic

You think this is not a spell? I assure you...it is.

I'm surprised to see a comment from only 19 minutes ago

Yeah, especially the cat skull. Unique, indeed

Do you know what she's playing?

@@thomasgodridge5945 some of the unique instruments she’s playing are the Jouhikko (bowed lyre) and the hurdy gutsy (barrel organ) I love hearing the beautiful sound of these ancient instruments .

Hurdy gurdy, sorry auto correct, doesn’t like either word

I believe it is the instrument that plays "Rest".

If it weren't for the promise of hewing many foe-men, the cat probably would have stayed home.

sometimes you just gotta hold the cat when cat wants to interupt you :P

Cats were worship in Nordic believes

A tasty viking snack

Вроде эта песня изначально была в сериале Викинги где её пели конунг Харальд и ярл Хальвдан. Потом уже в игру попала.

@@mrfire5308 Этой песне вообще уже более 1000 лет если брать оригинал на древнескандинавском. Песня скальда Эгиля Скаллагримсона , а если быть точней то вроде отрывок

Thank You!

Nope

The mark on her forehead is the Nordic rune of protection, there's nothing remotely sinister ( which incidentally means" of the left hand side".

@@rogerfrancis65 Pretty sure they were talking about the bit where half her face is covered in black.

@@Mylander69 And the white lenses, really cool

@@rogerfrancis65 I am talking more about the other one with the entire forrhead black and milky white eyes

what does it mean tho

@@baleinebleue47 Enemies. Foe = enemy. Foemen = enemies.

@@rhatthecat damn, I've misunderstood it with "foammen". If I think about it... fight against army of animated, giant creatures made from solid foam would be XXI centaury epic.

Honestly it sounds more like someone had no idea how to directly translate this into English in a way that makes sense and fits with the rhythm. A decent attempt given the original, but not exactly "quintessentially viking".

@@rhatthecat tnx

Харальд, увидев клип, усомнился в своей прекрасноволосости.

@Andrew Larionov Трынделион - это прям хорошо! :)))

@@usievaladk так до битве при Хаврсфьерде он имел прозвище Лохматый. И да. Хальвдан Чёрный отец Харальда погиб провалившись под лёд, когда Харальду было 4 года.

Я тебя растрою,но они говорили на норвежском,датском и шведском...Современный английский для них как финикийский или ассирийский.

@@Mephiston1984LoD Скорее всего это я тебя огорчу, ибо твоё объяснение здесь абсолютно не к чему. Я прекрасно знаю, что на английском викинги не говорили. И что с того? Хочешь сказать, что исполнитель не узнал бы собственной песни только потому, что она не на его родном норвежском?

Cats were very important to the northmen, they are great loyal friends of Freyja who blessed the followers of the Norse Gods and cats were also believed by the northmen to rid off evil and mischief.

@@dcmuggamuga407 oh really I thought they kept them around so when they went into battle they could just start tossing cats at the enemy

@@dcmuggamuga407 they were also present in their longboats to hunt rats

@@shadowknightgaming1874 That would be an easier way for them to meet Freyja in Folkvang, haha!

@@lucas-xf7rc Yes, they also thought that because Freyja was the Goddess of War, the thought if they brought cats into their longships into raids and battle that the cats would give them the battle luck.

I loved the creepiness of the evil background singer version too. Alina really puts in the work on these covers.

Especially the ending.

I wasn't expecting that and nearly jumped out of my seat when she appeared! Seeing the cat come into the video made it better though XD

Well, one of the best. Voiceplay's cover is just as good but in a different way, mostly 'cause Geoff's bass.

I would say that Thror or more precisely the ancient Slavic version of him is quite fond of her work

@@chrisshorten4406 the first rune coloring is exactly in honor of Odin. The second one I saw in the game Hellblade, and in my opinion it is a symbol of the priests of Hel or other gods, I do not know

@@krzysztofchanski5783 it is in English I believe

@@anastasiashymkiv6920 The Rune in the center of her forhead is the Rune Algiz, it's a powerful protection rune that symbolized Freyja and the Valkryies.

Modern translation My mother told me One day I would buy A boat with good oars Sail to a far away land Standing on the front of the ship I steer a boat fit for a king A calm trip to sanctuary Where we'll slaughter a lot of enemies

@Michael Morrison nice, i would change the second to last line to: "Steady course to the harbour" since it's more true to the original text. Edit: I would also change the line "sail to a far away land" to: "sail of with the Vikings" because I like Vikings.

@@Nerd2Ninja Nice, very nice. The original lyrics can be a bit tricky for non-English speakers or young people, but I'd rather the original anyways, it seems to have a deeper meaning

@@stenharl1 A 'haven' is a place of sanctuary and safety, not a harbour.

@@synthrogue6856 I don't care about the english word "haven" and its meaning. I care about the original line "halda svá til hafnar" where hafnar literally means harbour in old Norse.

Харальд Прекрасноволосый и его брат скорее )

@@user-rq8uy7ne7e , Исторический Харальд Прекрасноволосый бился бы в корчах ненависти, если бы услышал эту вису и узнал, кто ее автор ;)

@@user-ts6rp1kg3k можно ли поинтересоваться - почему? До "Круга Земного" Снорри еще не дошел, но планирую прочитать.

@@AerionCuruvellon , Доброго времени. Прочтите, если еще не читали, произведение "Сага об Эгиле", об авторе этой самой висы, которую Алина исполнила. На сколько я понял, популярной она стала благодаря сериалу "Викинги", создатели которого вложили эту самую вису в уста Харальда. Фактически Харальд жил раньше Эгиля, был плюс-минус ровесником отца Эгиля - Грима, и вису эту мог услышать лишь совсем в глубокой старости, хотя даже это сомнительно. А Эгилев род Харальд не любил, т.к. был у него конфликт с дядькой Эгиля, затем массовая ссора со всей семьей Эгиля. Ну и на последок, когда предки Эгиля тикали из Норвегии в Исландию, от этого самого Харальда, по пути они вцепили корабль, на котором из Англии двое малолетних сыновей Харальда возвращались домой к папке, и вырезали там всех, под ноль. По этому мне показалось, что любое напоминание Харальду о представителях этого рода должно быть как ножка стола для мизинца на ноге. С уважением.

@@user-ts6rp1kg3k благодарю за столь развернутый ответ!
