MY MOTHER TOLD ME ft. KING HARALD & HALFDAN - NORDIC MUSIC - VIKINGS THEME SONG Reaction!

[@lenneketraas3901]

This (first nordic part) is the best version of this song in my opinion. You see 2 brothers singing the song on opposite hills as they are about to fight against each other because they chose different leaders...that makes it emotional and beautiful

[@Taabituubi]

You will never lift your sword against your brother

[@terencemcgeown2358]

​@@Taabituubi. I would destroy mine in a heartbeat if he went against me.

[@bummi601]

@@Taabituubi Kain?!?

[@danskegamerboys]

They are brothers singing together before a big fight were they are on each side .. its really a touching moment

[@caseyclover1647]

Halfdan is in Valhalla feasting with the gods, he showed his honor by staying loyal to Bjorn and letting his brother kill him, I bet he gained Odins respect and a seat besides him and ragnar. I absolutely loved Vikings

[@claudiazaatable]

Love this serie: Vikings! A must watch if you liked GoT but missed the action

[@EDFApprentice]

Fax best show I’ve ever watched

[@OriginalPuro]

EEwwwww, gays of tards was a really shitty show, don't compare it to Vikings.

[@doughaviland1729]

Get ready to carve out a week to watch all seven seasons, as once you start down the road of the Viking farmer, Ragnar Lothbrook, who would become a King and his warrior wife Lagartha and their sons, there's no turning back! I was SO sad when it came to an end! INTENSE is the word!

[@jacksondonna5258]

Vikings is hands down best show I have ever seen.

[@marc-etiennemercier6584]

Oh man what I would give to forget about that show and watch it all over again.

[@TomTomson81]

Vikings is great

[@jiminaterj3845]

Favourite show of all Time!!

[@marycasanova8905]

This is beautiful. Haunting.

[@basvandalen2093]

one of the best series out there

[@vhinworth]

I love vikings.

[@adamwalkeraw]

Still think it's my favourite TV series of all time

[@jordivn]

Nice good old vinking feels comming from that show! One of the favourites for me.

[@Bobbobington123]

Best show i ever watched watched the whole thing 3 times

[@lkayh]

That was such a good series. And there are so many good versions of this song out. Glad you checked this out.

[@osk9013]

I love this serie. First part of this song is in Old Norse!

[@jiminaterj3845]

This actually from the show!! Season 5 I believe!!

[@Doaria]

Loved the serie Vikings.

[@TheMilkMan8008]

This was a poem written in Egils Saga from Íslendingasögur or Sagas of Icelanders. Egils Saga tails the life of members in Egil Skallagrímsson clan. From Egils grandfather to his children. He was a war age poet and a farmer with suposed mystical powers. The Íslendingasögur is also known as the Family Sagas. Mostly historical events retold by different families around the Saga Age in early Iceland, the ninth to early eleventh century. According to his Saga, the poem was suposedly written after his first murder at a very young age. The shows and games that use it now greatly alter the original poem in the Saga. I have the saga with me as I directly quote what is the most commonly accepted translation of the poem: My mother wants a price paid To purchase my proud-oared ship; Standing high in the stern I'll soar for plunder, The stout viking stearsman Of this shining vessel: Then home to harbour After hewing down a man or two Translation slightly alters it, but not in any meaningful way. Egils Saga is very interesting as a whole. One of my favorite Sagas personally. The story goes that when he was six he and the boy Grim who was 11, were playing ball. Grim is winning, Egil is mad and hits him. Grim then wrestles him to the ground. Egil is not happy with this so he goes home, seeks his friend and the two get axes. Egil cuts Grims head through the brain down to the teeth. This causes the adults of the two houses to fight and seven more men to die. His father is disappointed for causing so much suffering and death for nothing. His mom is proud however and tells him she thinks its a sign he will be a great viking and people should get him fighting ships. He writes the poem after his mother tells him this. And as a side note, here are two other translations that are not as accepted today. The contemporary English translation is roughly: "Mother told me they ought to buy me a ship and good oars. I ought to go with Vikings, stand up in the ship, steer the good ship, sail into harbor, kill one man after another." The most literal translation is(yes, spelling and all): "Thus spake my mother, That for me should they buy a barque and beauteous oars to go forth with Vikings. Stand in the stern, Steer a dear vessel, Hold course for a haven, Hew down many foemen."

[@Nekotaku_TV]

Love that scene and song.

[@witchfromthenorth5294]

Oooo.. you have’nt seen Vikings yet!? You have to!!

[@annukkas]

Well, isn't it "our" Jasper and Peter. 😃🇫🇮

[@saschawalter358]

MR. H you really have to watch the show, it's so intense and emotinal👌👌To King Ragnar🍺🍻

[@tylertapp131]

Hauntingly beautiful. Shit gives me chills every time, especially when you know the show. The two main guys singin in the norse version are brothers in the show. They just happened to be on opposite sides of a battle about to take place and were basically singing out to one another. They know it's very well possible it could be the last time they see each other and if you put yourself in that mindset man..... that's some real shit.

[@dazzl3d-u3k]

omg... he has never seen "this show" 😯

[@patriciamayhew6321]

YESSS! The video is almost entirely made of scenes from the series Vikings which is totally outstanding! The first part of this music video is sung in Old Norse by the actors who play two brothers In the series. Please watch the show, it is EPIC, and the soundtrack, and all the music is amazing, quite a lot is done by Einar Selvik and Wardruna. You will enjoy the series! It is based on history but only loosely, the writer is writing for emotions and drama with history and mythology as the background. It is not a documentary, it is epic entertainment.

[@jeremyorthman1873]

Excellent show

[@brianbower30]

Best show I ever watched

[@deluxedutch7184]

One of the best series on Netflix, i really enjoyd this.

[@vidarro8681]

If you havent watch the show yet, I recommend it! I have no doubt you will place it in top 10 series you have watched. It seems to me that your spirit kinda answers to it!

[@JoanN63]

The Viking, one of the best series. I think season 1, 2 and 3 are the best. Like the music too

[@rullvardi]

Yeah, the show really dips in quality after Ragnar's death, so one probably could stop there or when Aelle's wings are spread, after the Great Heathen Army.

[@JoanN63]

@@rullvardi I totally agree!!

[@emmap1250]

The serie is on my ‘to watch list’. Love the music.

[@carro-xb9oz]

best series ever made

[@karin7544]

I watched this serie in a short time. It's a great must see serie/show. It's a story of the Vikings. (Historie).

[@marcellieferink]

Best serie i have ever watcht. Is a must see

[@khalsa8548]

The best series I've ever see in my life 🖤 In the name of RAGNAR LOTHBROK 👑

[@turdfurguson8359]

Vikings, wa awesome

[@AlexKall]

There is a version on KZbin by Hindarfjäll and Peter Franzén (King Harald in Vikings), composed by Einar Selvik (Warduna). Find it on youtube by searching for "Þat Mælti Mín Móðir" and "Grimfrost" (might also work with "My mother told me" and "Grimfrost". Well worth a listen.

[@antonlb143]

you should do a viking series reaction. a good show and the community you create is amazing

[@katemccrea6963]

This show delivered what Game of Thrones tried to: amazing characters, character arcs that actually worked, strong ass women, and women who truly had their own agency. Plus, the last season was terrific. Maybe too long. But still great. And it gave us one of the most fantastic warrior women to ever grace our screens: Lagertha. I think in the end, her legacy from the show was just as powerful, if not more impactful than any of the male characters.

[@katemccrea6963]

And btw, you've reacted to Wardruna and Heilung, I believe? They both have music featured in this show and Eilnar from Wardruna helped with the original music.

[@saschawalter358]

Halfdan😭😭

[@ReezeGoingSenseless]

"Buy a decent Boat with decent Oars, boy!" Viking Mommas reasonable advice became a folk song!

[@KrygerWolf]

Damn good show I enjoyed it.

[@KhaziirEverflight]

I love how we bascially had the same reaction to the GLORIOUS chorus at 2:39... a leanback and a whoa xD also same... gotta watch the show if this is the theme.

[@basvandalen2093]

would love to see you make a reaction series on the viking tv series

[@internaut4257]

The show vikings is very good, definately worth watching all the way trough. Would also not mind watching you react to it if you ever decide to branch out from music reactions

[@Paul-H]

netflix binge,

[@MrTheatrick]

The language they are singing it in is old norse btw

[@ironfromicey8700]

You should watch the show xx

[@AErikReynolds]

The 1879 Encyclopedia Britannica 9th edition volume 2 page 594. States that Oden was actually a living breathing man… They’ve been squishing our history from the beginning of time.

[@Thomas.deNorth]

You absolutely need to watch Vikings! One of the better shows out there, and no Hollywood diversity insanity ruined this show. Let us know your opinion on it when you have seen a season or two!

[@bigberg7033]

You should check out Colm McGuinness singing this in old Norse

[@jonalaurenson7242]

You need to do a Vikings reaction! Please lol

[@sevendam9070]

Oh yeah you should! If you like medieval stuff like Game of thrones for example, this is a really good successor.

[@geffi3077]

You should make complete reaction of Vikings, the serie has lots of songs from Einar Selvik and Wadruna too.

[@williamgorham7339]

Yes this is ps read the actual sagas from which this song originated and you soon will realize this is the PG version.

[@Esmeagolly]

So if you want the version entirely in Old Norse with The actor that plays Halfdan here is the link, the channel is also very cool entirely based on Viking history( but that might be just the history teacher in me). m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpLZloipZtRpm5Y The show Vikings also gives a pretty good historical view (even though the timeline isn’t really accurate) many battles are recorded in history Im really glad I found your channel! Greetings

[@HighlyCombustibleReacts]

Esmee, I appreciate you! I am so glad that you enjoyed what you saw. I am glad you brought a recommendation with you because I would love to hear as many of other subs to the channel would. Send it to me and I will definitely will add it to the list. Just please be patient as the list is long and remember that I promise that I will get you a reaction. Here is the best ways getting it to me ko-fi.com/highlycombustiblereacts bit.ly/RequestHXC I appreciate truly appreciate all the love and positivity you bring with you. Much love.

[@k.l.7788]

Peter Franzen and Jasper Pääkkönen are both great finnish actors.

[@k.l.7788]

We finns were never vikings though.

[@nightthornkvala94132]

Have you seen the video for this song by The Hound + The Fox feat. Adam Chance?

[@debbiecollier4665]

Better than GOT,vikings is the best series to ever be on TV, excellent acting & brilliant soundtrack ,an absolute must watch I love it ❤️

[@hansreftel4271]

See the show its great

[@katie_weber]

If u loved this version i have two other versions of this song if u haven’t heard them yet by Peyton Parrish of My Mother Told me in English and Old Norse too!!!

[@MrTheatrick]

The reason the song feels kinda knarly is that it is basicly a deathchant xD

[@MrAchsas]

must watch show imo breaking bad level

[@child_of_gaia1836]

this part of the series is so sad Brother kills Brother.
