This video is about a talisman which Inuit used for many spiritual things and in this case is used for luck during a dog sledge race.
The song is about remembering your roots and that you are influenced and helped by many people every day.
We, as human beings, are responsible for the development of the society in our country, through cooperation and by sharing strength and knowhow rather than counteracting one another we will all prosper in the end.
Frederik (the lead singer) actually fell through the ice while filming this video, because he went too close to one of the icebergs.
There’s approx. 500 meters under the ice to the bottom of the ocean and a strong current that can pull you under the ice. But Christian pulled Frederik up in time, and he did not get injured.
The band and crew shot the video for 3 days.

World: Man it's cold out here. Nanook: Let's perform and record a music video.

[@tekplays5366]

Found you almost exactly a year ago and by far you are my most favourite band. Even though I don't understand them, your songs have so much tune and emotion that can be surely appreciated no matter where you are from or what walk of life you herald from. Thanks Nanook.

[@tamy_br]

Just love it how every single song seems to carry a deep meaning about the land & people. You guys rock 👊❤

[@Arrrp21]

This music is fantastic. You deserve more popularity worldwide.

[@zerinhozerinho]

What a nice and well-done music echoing from the Artic! Only recently I have been aware of such beautiful songs flowing out from exotic Greenland! I have been fascinated by the Artic since I was a kid and your music is pure Artic poetry, a cry for preservation and a genuine call for attention to your beautiful country’s natural wonders. You are true ambassadors of your incredible land. Congratulations! Thank you for fulfilling my ears with ease and peace, though I am not able to understand the words, unless translated to English on a few videos. Will I ever be able to see one of your concerts? Will you perform in Europe in 2019? Will you ever come to perform in the tropics? Marco Zerôncio Medical Doctor and fan, Far tropics of South America, Natal, Brazil

Amazing song >>. Love from Mongolia :)

[@topazbutterfly1853]

I know it's out of context, but I am trying to learn Mongolian for no reason. I'm still at the very beginning. How hard would you describe it?

[@topazbutterfly1853]

@@drawingbytt7499 Well, I already know the basic sentence structure and some words. Батын аав өчигдөр машинаар ирсэн. Word for word it would be: "Bat's dad yesterday by car came." I'm trying to complete a cours I found on KZbin. It has the basics, like numbers, the clock, sentence structure, basic phrases and A LOT of vocabulary. I will enventually finish it and I will be in need of new learning material. Maybe you could recommend something? A site, a book, doesn't matter.

[@drawingbytt7499]

@마하드 really? that is cool. :)

[@nielsjosefsen431]

Did you know that our peoples (Greenlandic) origin about 400 years ago was northern mongolia. So hello brother or sister. And one of the things that has survives to this date is throat singing.

[@sebastiann3960]

🇷🇴❤🇬🇱

[@SouthernedgeExtreme]

Why did you cut out the second verse of the song?

[@NanookOfficialFrederikElsnerGL]

Well observed. We decided to cut it out so the video became shorter and by that it was easier to keep it in high gear. Just to make it more contrasting to our other video: Ataasiusutut Misigissuseq which we slowly built up.

[@SouthernedgeExtreme]

@@NanookOfficialFrederikElsnerGL Fair enough. But as a side note, have you got any plans to upload the music video to Meeraq Kingulleq? It's my favourite one
