[@clapasgonvaux8593]

😄 same for me, impossible to skip this series intro, never...

[@seltaeb9691]

The intro actually taught you the kingdoms & throughout out episodes it showed the original place names in Saxon. Funny, when Wessex attacked Mercia it always felt southwards to me & how they conveyed it, but Mercia was above Wessex ie northwards. Great series & they got the period detail good, tho by Season 5 it felt a bit Darth Vader! Destiny S'all..

[@trulsdirio]

The intro sadly was the best part about the whole production.. Horrible waste of great source material.

Just imagine this music echoing & bouncing off of the sheer stone cliffs of a Norwegian fjord with the mist swirling all about. I listened to KZbin of a women singing & playing on a prominence with her voice & drumming echoing all around. Something truly other worldly. Turns out that was Eivør 7 yrs ago and now she is doing gigs at The Apollo and known around the World to all The Last Kingdom fans. kzbin.info/www/bejne/raTPXn5-fMpngc0 Eivør's voice is like listening to the Valkyries singing the souls of dead warriors into Valhalla.

She never performs it quite the same way twice and i absolutely love that.

[@marksanfordyates9326]

Eivør's beautiful voice makes my skin crawl with goosebumps. She pretty much brings tears to my eyes with her extraordinary vocal ranges and styles. I love the deep, growling and grinding sound of her band-mate's bow, making gut-felt friction on the strings of his upright bass in the background of this tune. Makes me ponder and enjoy my Saxon-Dane heritage. I'm going to play it again on my stereo speakers whilst enjoying a pickled herring, liverwurst, pumpernickel sandwich, washed down with a cold Tuborg. Life is good. Skaal!

@ We would have never known had you not mentioned.

@@kappa5809 this style of music represents the Fearsome Viking Warriors (precisely from Denmark) who had attacked and colonized Britannia between the 8th and 10th century during the High Middle Ages (now England). They were warriors feared by the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms, to which Only the Kingdom of Wessex succeeded in repelling them in the time of Alfred the Great. I know a lot about this period

[@cristianlandriel407]

Estamos asistiendo a una época en la cual tenemos la posibilidad de escuchar a una artista notable, magnífica, única, pero el mundo y los medios de comunicación prefieren "oír", "bailar" la canción del cantante o grupo de moda que, las más de las veces, es un número muy poco feliz, para no decir una porquería. Hace alrededor de 2 años que descubrí a Eivør y desde entonces no paso un día sin asombrarme con el arte sublime que esta excepcional artista produce, sin apoyo de compañías multinacionales, sin difusión en la prensa (aquí, en Argentina, Eivør es una absoluta desconocida), sin tener que generar polémicas con el objetivo de acaparar la atención... Creo que quienes escuchamos a Eivør Pálsdóttir podemos sentirnos privilegiados por ser contemporáneos suyos y poder quedarnos absortos ante ese manantial de inagotable y puro talento que es su arte, su voz extraordinaria, su música y su belleza (es hermosa Eivør...🥰) ¡Saludos para ella, y también para quienes tienen el refinado gusto de oírla, desde Buenos Aires, Argentina! 😎🇦🇷😎

[@FedericoMartens]

La primera vez que la escuché fue porque una compañera en un curso al que asistí en el Instituto Sueco Argentino compartió una de sus canciones en el chat grupal. Como me encantó, busqué temas suyos, y viendo The Last Kingdom pensé "será ella la de la intro?" y efectivamente era. Posta que es un oasis en el desierto esta mujer.
