THE HU “WOLF TOTEM” | REACTION 

Played this loud as hell.....now my house is on fire, horses are stampeding through my back yard,my Chinese neighbor is building a wall and all the women in the street are pregnant!

The bikers are the Mongols Motorcycle Club and yes they are no joke.

Motorcycles, or Harleys to us, are often called IRON HORSES. That is symbolism. Right there.

Hello Jamel, If you watch this video with closed captions turned on, you will get the English version of the Mongolian lyrics. The chant of Hu Hu Hu Hu can be loosely translated as Us Us Us Us. There is a lot of symbolism in this video. The ancient Mongolian Horseman, the howl of a wolf in the distance. The 'new' horse, the motorcycle, all symbols of the past. They mention the numbers 10, 100, 1,000, and 10,000. These were unit sizes of the 'Horde'. 10 being the basic 'squad' of men. 10 of those squads made up the larger 100 unit, and on and on. You will also see animals mentioned. These are Totem Animals that were names for the above units, and are used in Modern Mongolian Wrestling as 'ranks'. In the lyrics they make specific mention of tactics using these totems. 'If you come as Snake, we will fly over you as the Garuda Bird (The Garuda bird is taken from India, where the Garuda is a bird-like air spirit, also known as the Aquila, or Eagle in English... Which is where the Constellation of Aquila comes from). For each Totem's 'power'... Strength of the Lion, Speed of the Tiger, Crushing power of the Elephant, etc there is a counter. Against the trickery of the Snake, one flies above like the Garuda Bird (eagle), And if you come as Humans, they still win, because they are the People of the Wolf and will overwhelm you. This song should not be seen as a 'call to arms', but instead, like the previous song, a call to the Mongolian people to awaken and take a renewed interest in their shared Heritage. A proud History of a warrior people that once ruled an Empire larger than any other ever recorded in all of History. The guitar, drums (drummer was seen several times. the tall thin one with long hair head banging and singing along to the left of the main throat singer with one of the two Mongolian 'violins'), and the Morin Khuur, or the 'horse headed fiddle' are all 'traditional' Mongolian musical instruments. Yet playing these, they have made an outstanding pair of 'rock' songs. Songs that even if you can't understand the lyrics, still reach into you and touch that deep core in yourself that we all inherit from our distant ancestors. Race, Religion, Culture, Language, none of that matters since the song speaks to the most primitive side of our Natures. Just some thoughts, speaking Frank-ly

This is one of those music videos where you don't know what the hell they're saying but your heart felt it and when the song is done, you're like, "what the f*ck did I just watched/listening to"? The music is so unique that you just wanna hear more.

Yep , There ain't nothing like a good old fashion Mongol war chant to get the blood going . Or scare the shit out of the enemy . Gotta love it .

They are just so Badass!!! Can you imagine facing a hoard of these guys back in the day?! No Wonder they were able to conquer half the world!! Thanks For the Reaction!

This is a war chant! Originated from way back in earlier times.

I am half Pict, half Viking. This speaks to me on so many levels.

THAT IS TRIBAL MUSIC! Music that shatters the steppes... thunders over the plains... thumps across the Serengeti... rumbles across the moors. LOVED IT!!!

This song is mongolia’s way of saying “you STILL dont want this smoke”

Love how he is looking at the camera like "Are you guys listening to this?!?!"

We may all be related to them at some point. They nearly concurred most of Asia and Europe. This is why China built that Great Wall. We can understand why.

Ive seen a ton of reactions to this song...but it takes a black guy to REALLY understand this song... thanks, man! I Subbed and I will follow you!

This was an ancient war chant that has been modernized & WOW!!! Wtf is my horse, I want too take over the World!!! Loved your reaction

Thank you for the rection Jamel Aka Jamal love this rection I am from Mongolian 💪🤘🤘🇲🇳🇲🇳🇲🇳

Love the instruments and then the vocals really loved it! And then seen the translation,loved it even more!! To think these people conquered more territory then anyone in history and done it with only 200,000 warriors!!

The best Wolf Totem reaction video! :)) Greetings from Hungary.

This is by far so best reaction ever made on this song. Most of people who react compare them to rammstein or do not put the translation. You look astonished at the end, and as if you was with them, encouraging them, singing their war song. This song is everything it's a great mix between traditional Mongolian songs and metal. And throat singing goes so well with this kind of music. Love them and thank you for you great reaction. (Sorry for my English this is not my language)

best reaction video :) Proud of you , respect , greetings from a mongolia ❤️🇲🇳

One of my favorite bands since they came on the scene. My friends look at me like I am nuts. Usually classical and classic rock etc. I play it for them and they are hooked as well. Thanks for this video

North American tour this fall, count me in!

First video of yours I've caught, but you know what? You did reactions right. You let the song play, you didn't talk over it, you didn't pause it 100x, and you waited till after and jammed along with the rest of us. I'm down with that every day of the week, it adds to the immersion and doesn't detract from the point of reaction videos. Well done.

I find this band fascinating and amazing. Their instruments are works of art. So much energy!

This song... this song is an anthem for humanity. HU is the root of the word Human. One day, we will all simply be HU.

You hear that chant in the distance, see the dust cloud you, you feel the ground is shakin and this is THE last song you hear before your village is flatten hehe

Oh the black banner, be AWAKENED. (Black banner is the flag of war)

Say hello to the sons of Genghis Kan

Ohhh, what a surprise! Yes, I know the boys from WU! I'm glad now you know them too. They are so determined, so powerful, so fearless! They are ready to fight for their cause, a fight they will definitely win! :)

Quite possibly the best RU-vid comment ever posted was in response to watching this video. I have to share it, because everyone who sees this video should know about it. The guy said: *"I don't know what the fuck I just watched, but my crops are dead, my house is burning, and both my daughters are pregnant."* Pretty much sums it all up. Don'tcha think?

I just ran across these guys a couple of weeks ago and they are awesome! Thanks. ^_^

Remember, Mongolians scared Chinese so much they're the reason The Great Wall exists! Their singing style is NO EFFECT, called karkyraa and khoomei (Mongolian throat singing - reminds"fry vocals" of a man with bass voice, like Till Lindemann from Rammstein. It's done more using the throat and vocals chords), That horse head instrument is called morin khuur (horse head fiddle) . Next like a guitar instrument is called tovshuur (Mongolian traditional guitar). The Hu said they are created new genre then they called that Hunnu rock.

Saw them live in Austin TX on Sunday they were AMAZING the music their audience connection threw me into trance I am still buzzing from their show. I LOVE them :) :) :)

This would make SUCH and awesome entrance song for MMA fighters!

favorite line: If you come with evil intentions we'll give you a fight. thanks for the reaction.

I am off the charts shocked to see the Hu appear in your playlist. Wow. Found these guys last year and you tonight. Amazing marriage.

This is called "Folk Metal" I love it too. Surprising that metal heads hate it, but they do... I'm old School the beat is KILLER!!❤

I love this band. I have listened to this song a few hundred times over the last couple of weeks. Your reaction video has been the absolute best. You got a new subscriber.

Great reaction. You have presented a video that I found and so far I have not seen anyone else react to it. You are awesome, thank you.🤗🤗

I saw them on October 15th in Portland Or. They were great. Love their music.

Hu Band is THE SHIT! An album is coming out later this month and they are touring Europe soon. I really hope they come to America.

I watched a lot of reactions on youtube for this song, i liked yours because you had the common sense to turn subtitles on. Thank you :D

this is what you would hear before they will burn your city to the ground. Awesome react bro like it

Greetings from a Mongolian, found your channel through your reaction to Sohyang, shocked that you know about throat singing tho

All horse culture music is badass. Every rhythm is like a horse at a run, they worship horses. Notice how he made his instrument sound like a falcon and horse.

Mongols did really make the world tremble, man... the Mongol Empire {also known as Blue Empire} had the largest empire ever existed on mother Earth in history under the leadership of the great Chinggis Khaan! No man could be called by right "ruler of the world" more than him. H'e my favourite figure in mankind history and I'm particularly overwhelmed by the fact that HU means Mankind! Such a blast....

So addictive, their sound. Great reaction video! Thank you

"This is about to be powerful" Realist reaction ive seen in a minute. Because I felt the same way

You can't help but nod your head to this song. It's so powerful. And props to you for watching it with lyrics. They make the song 5 times more epic.

this is the kind of music that captures your soul and takes it on an adventure it didn't even know it could handle, and spits it out on the other side, disheveled and ready to take on anything. It is the kind of music you want playing when you are at the edge of your endurance and need that one little push to get you going again. This is the type of Music YOU DO NOT WANT TO PLAY DURING RUSH HOUR, because it will likely lead to you getting arrested.

That’s why Chinese built GREAT WALL LOL...

Its songs like this that makes me sad for people who only listen to one genre of music. There is so much good music out in the world that they miss out. You just have to be open to find and listen to it. Thank you for playing this band's music keeping good music alive and out there, sir.

This is my favorite from the HU!!! Loved it & I loved your reaction to it! It is such a powerful and "Don't mess with Mongolia" vibe! Just love it! Thank you

I love how you never paused the video, this shows that you are a great listener, appreciating the art. Greetings from North Asia!

I can speak from personal experience, these guys rock super hard. A small venue filled with Adolescents to Old Geezers was shouting and chanting along with them...and they were just the opener! Gotta keep ears out for new releases from them. \m/ Around the same time these guys came out, I also learned about a new band named SKALD that you might want to give a listen to. Similar genre (traditional + rock), expect instead of Mongolian they sing in Old Norse.

And there we go, I just love them ( my rock side popping up) waiting for more MV from them . Thank you for your reaction 😍💞

, Always enjoy your reactions! Jamel thank you this video great im Mongolia long time Poland now soooo much missss home country of people. This song amazing just the best . Amazing voice wooooooow. I love it.

Such a beautiful and empty country. Such an interesting people with such a strong deep and ancient culture.

Thank you for your reaction to the Hu band. I subscribed to your channel to see more of them.

Your reaction is Gold & Pure 👍

i have been so much watched Hu reaction videos you liked me if you want someday tour come Mongolian very beautiful nature and locations Good luck Jamel I'm proud of being born in Mongolia sorry my english bad sorry

Imagine an army of these guys on horseback, coming at you with bows powerful enough to pierce armor. They were terrifying!

Lol. I loved your reaction at 8:00 The best reaction video I ever seen by far!

I saw them in concert a few days ago and they are awesome

💙🙌🏻💙 been waiting to see reactions to The Hu. So happy I found that you did 💙🙌🏻💙

The sound and beat is primal speaks to a person on so many levels. Makes you want to go and take on the world 🤘🤘🤘🤘

MAN music. That's what that right there is. Hahahah just like you I sat there afterward first time I heard this and was still all.. vibrating inside, lol. Great reaction, man.

Nobody is talking to these guys about 'toxic masculinity'. This is the way all MEN should be...warriors at heart!

I proper LUV the way you describin' this, cos that's EXACTLY how it is !! Thank you ))))

As we search for our reason for being as humans, this and many other songs speak to the warrior within us, my ancestors came from the north and brought fear and fire from the sea. The ancestors of these guys swept out of the steppes of the east and let nothing stand in their way. Understanding the words doesn't matter, this simply calls on us to be proud, strong and fierce. We, the modern man, could and should learn from this message.

Cool! I've never heard of this group until now.

“The band that makes the noises with their throats.”

You are the only person that never pauses the videos during reaction time.... I love it.

The real Mongols motorcycle gang

i love how you looked shocked, but got neck deep in to it and was ready to go to war just cause this song!

The greatest thing about this band and this song is how it appeals to all of us - every race, religion, creed, social status. We are all drawn to the tribal power of our kind. We all have roots here. We are all human beings and we all have basic needs and instincts. “You screw with us and our kind, and we will fight back”.

this is the best fuucking reaction on YT! + he got the message XD And I must tell you that lyrics are 700 years old!

The Hu band are a guilty pleasure. People look at me sideways whenever I play them at work.

They are totally badass

Everyone can relate to this song, makes me want to go to war!

Dude love ur reaction! Keep it up!

So glad you got to these. X

So amazing band

Several months back this video showed up in my recommendations list. I didn't watch it for weeks. I finally decided to give it a chance and I was blown away immediately by what I was hearing. My mind was blown by the instrumentation and the throat singing. My dog was laying down beside my chair and had become a dire wolf about halfway through the song. I noticed my beard had grown in length and fullness. I suddenly felt the urge to conquer my block and the two blocks to my west. I was going to do the same to my east but a large stone wall had been erected by those residents.

It's actually called The Hyu basically like the beginning of human.. Which is actually what hu means. Hu is the Mongol word for human and the origin of it.

Me first time watching their music video: ✊😮 Hu Hu Hu Hu Me watching your video after listening to them for dozen times: ✊😮 Hu Hu Hu Hu

Gangis Kahn lives on with this music

And, this is why the Great Wall was built...Genghis Khan and his many beautiful wonders. Incredible, real, soulful and perfect.

The words are brutal.. and seriously real... and so wonderfully given.... WoW make the Chinese think twice.. lol lol... love it

They didn't sing with Dimash and Tengri. That band is called Hanggai, an Inner Mongolian /part of China/ band. They're quite famous too. Same aesthetics

The guys in the back on the bikes are some of the Mongols motorcycle club. You dont want to mess with them.

You have to love the ancient mixed with modern vibe

I am so pumped up and slightly fearful at how much this swirled the primal drive up. 5'3" and with pale skin and freckles... feeling like I could crush the world...HU!

This is one of those...like, we need to put this on the Voyager probe kind of songs.

Sad but true - the HU covered it. The video is GREAT!!!

Jamel, this is like Focus Hocus Pocus; one of those songs that comes around that there is nothing like it, or will be again! WOW, everytime I hear this song, I want to put on armor, pick up a battle axe and shield and charge into battle!

The instrument was a muhrin khuur or Horse-head fiddle a traditional Mongolian instrument. The Mongols between the 13-14th century AD had the largest empire in the world under the leadership of Gengis Khan (mentioned in the song), their massed horse archers in that era armed with compound bows were deadly accurate and were unstoppable as they decimated their enemies with hit and run tactics. Check out the band Heilung who take the art of throat singing to the next level.

Best reaction yet!

Hahhaha... The Reason why Chinese build the great wall of china is because they were scared of you know who .

😂😂😂😂 I know I'm way way way late to the game but OMFG I FELT YOU 💯💯💯💯!!! You knew exactly what they were talking about❤❤❤❤❤
