Seems that my comment got lost again within the mass, so: It turns out it wasn't a game company who used the song, it was only a mod. And of course I'm not suing anybody.^^ Please thumb this up very much this time so that it always stays on top of the comment section, thank you!

[@feynstein1004]

I can't believe this song is almost 8 years old. Classic, mate. :D

[@Msoldier94]

Adrian von Ziegler hey i love your music. Ive always been a visionary. Your songs can really paint pictures in my head. Im a novice filmmaker, would i be able to use some of your music for a short or feature film? Of courss you would be rewarded

[@RadenWA]

I wonder if maybe one day you could compose a celtic metal that integrates more harp....not only for the soft part but also on the hard part, alongside the drum and guitars. You've done it with flute so if there is one person that could make it work that would be you. Just a suggestion I hope you don't mind

[@kieranwright522]

This is brilliant. You are incredibly talented.

[@xxxkingryan]

you my friend are absolutely right

[@SoraCrysBlood]

@AdrianvonZiegler ich habe zu danken^^ alleine, dass du schon diese Lieder komponierst ist einfach toll! Bleib ja auf Kurs und mach weiter wie bisher^^. Und zu deinen Meisterwerken.....*hust* es gibt keine alleinstehenden Werke.....alle deine Werke sind meisterlich. Mach weiter so^^

[@veraina94]

I really like that picture!!!!

[@69LadyJay]

RIGHTEOUS!!!! This is fantastic and a definent new favorite of mine.Thanks so much and Blessed Be!!!! )0(

[@LostLadyShadow]

Absolut großartig...wie immer...:D

[@isaacjameson1090]

wow really does sound better on HD

[@to-fn8qj]

やっぱりいいわぁ～adrianさん……　小学生の時から聞いてる

[@raven16510]

oh I like!! It sounds awesome!

[@joeysonofander7479]

Very nice.

[@Lore-94]

Nice work man!

[@TruthSeekerUK]

Exellent track, very well made :)

[@NightPressure]

I've heard it only here :-P Adrian's music is beautiful, passionate, scaring and unique at the same time :-D

[@ErikHaze13]

Love the picture of Odin riding Sleipnir, is that Asgard in the background?

[@nargaroth57]

great video my brother and great song < lord nargaroth

[@metalhaesle]

5* und fav. vocals könnt ich mir dazu auch gut vorstellen ^^

[@RickyVWorld]

If he lets u, give it more notice than just in the credits, this music deserves great notifaction around the world. Besides, no1 ever looks in the credits lol.

[@Manowarrior1992]

@DerErwecker eine seehr gute frage :D aber wie bereits beantwortet ist odin gemeint ;) dies erkennst du auch an dem bild, aber das weißt du bestimmt bereits ^^

[@PessimisticMonday]

@AdrianvonZiegler Is the guy in the video supposed to be Odin? I thought his horse, Sleipnir, had like 6 or 8 legs.....?

[@o0DigimonFreak0o]

Whoa! This remember me to Fairy Tail.

[@SoraCrysBlood]

@DerLudwig6 Einen Dudelsack hört man perfekt heraus^^ . Wenn du dir öfters Irische Metalbands anhörst, kannst du den Unterschied zwischen Dudelsack und Flöte gut heraushören.

[@mrAZcardinal]

Blizzard. Sounds about right.

[@EnigmaticV2]

game name please!! i'd like to play it

[@TheDrakanMaster124]

What painting is that

[@Sorestlor]

How?

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

Woah, hold on everybody!^^ I'm not going to sue anyone, Blizzard was not involved into any of that. I found out that it was simply a mod that used my music, not a game company, so everything is fine. xD

[@HandyHanderson]

*awesome stuff!! feel like punching a unicorn now*

[@calluna3716]

Umm...punching a unicorn? OH OH CAN I JOIN? I wanna punch a freaking unicorn! lol XD

[@1999Fabion]

Let's ALL punch unicorns

[@calluna3716]

YAY PUBA:Punching Unicorn Bro Army!!!!

[@angelusmortis8142]

Oh don't forget to steal their kidneys.

[@jerifreykey6108]

Pinkfluffy unicorns dancing on the rainbow :3

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@SoraCrysBlood Danke sehr! Ich hab mal in einer Band gespielt, allerdings Drums und nur ein halbes Jahr lang oder so. Aber alles was ich über Musik und Komponieren weiss hab ich mir im Prinzip nach Gehör beigebracht. Da ich meine Lieder immer schon komplett in meinem Kopf höre ist das auch nicht weiter schwer, ich muss also nur noch die passenden Tasten auf dem Keyboard finden. Das Komponieren selbst läuft im Kopf ab. ;)

[@smiley-skeleton4598]

Must..not...click...replay...must...resist.... Shit, I give up.

[@smiley-skeleton4598]

Mikó László It was a joke. :D

[@smiley-skeleton4598]

Mikó László :D

[@MrRomanguy11]

I've just discovered you, but you are already a new hero of mine :3

[@isaacjameson1090]

same here :D

[@V4P0R41N3]

This sounds like something that would play in Fairy Tail xD

[@-octopus_]

you're right XD....

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@DerLudwig6 Ich weiss :D Wie ich schon jemandem beim Lied Gleipnir gesagt habe: Der Titel ist Celtic Pagan Metal, denn ich habe keltische Instrumente und Melodien mit einem paganistischen Thema und Titel vermischt. ;) Dass Kelten nichts mit Germanen zu tun haben ist mir klar. :D

[@myheartisnothingbutthehome299]

This man is a fucking Genius!!!

[@DrRabenschnabel]

100% Agree

[@Alarak_]

"We may be few, and our enemies many. Yet so long as there remains one of us still fighting, one who still rages in the name of justice and truth, then by the Allfather, the galaxy shall yet know hope !" *- Ragnar Blackmane, Wolf Lord of the Space Wolves*

[@xxdeadmonkxx]

There is some magic at the beginning of the song!

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@RiseOfEarth Danke xD 1. Indem ich das ganze Arrangement am Keyboard komponiere und alles nur noch übertrage 2. Mit den richtigen VSTI 3. Mit viel Fluchen und Ärgern, bis Magix das macht, was ich will xD

[@miguelzuniga1776]

Who is listening this music on 2016?/¿Quien lo está escuchando en 2016?

[@pretzelprettimusicandgames7484]

I sure am! I had recently lost this guy's music years ago and just found it today! Looks like I have so music to catch up and listen to! lol

[@miguelzuniga1776]

+PretzelPretti Electronic Musicals HIGH FIVE

[@pretzelprettimusicandgames7484]

+miguel zúñiga high five back to you!

[@Zetaixon]

Me, Yo, Eu.

[@kellennicholson4488]

+Miguel Zuniga I am!

[@MonsterRecaps]

wow man i didn't know you make metal awesome

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

Yeah that's true, the picture has the wrong amount of legs on Sleipnir. I don't really understand why though, because if someone knows about Sleipnir the fact of him having 8 hoofs is pretty much the first knowledge you gather.^^

[@Indicet]

Adrian, you are great!!!

[@katarias5393]

One of my favorite songs of yours I really love your compositions, it just makes me feel alive And it transport me to the celtic essence, my celtic essence, it's just who. I am . Your compositions are so so complete and beautiful . You're a really great, complete and my favorite composer i have all your albums, I really love your music, the best celtic music that. I heard. I love the celtic music and you're one of the best exponents of that. All my admiration

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@jipper9 Thanks! Because it's not a real Guitar and Solos etc would sound horrible with a virtual Guitar, believe me.^^ I do have a real Guitar but I can't record it sadly.

[@undertaker48855]

i loveeeee iiiiiiiitt i use this music in skyrim for fights its sooo great other songs i used in skyrim for the towns lands and dungeons dark music is very good for the dungeons i love youre music we want more greetings from germany ^^

[@rapha208814]

i used it for skyrim, mount and blade, and it was wonderfull!!!!

[@UnderPressureT]

Kratoscreed Crysis why does everybody post something about skyrim under every pagan/viking metal song on youtube...

[@rapha208814]

H34VY M3T4L cuz.... i dont know..... it makes sense...... somehow.........

[@miguelzuniga1776]

+H34VY M3T4L Becouse it's a famous fantasy game and people prefers this type of music on this games.

[@caphalor08]

+H34VY M3T4L Because this fits better somehow than the vanilla in-game music. Play the game and you'll see it for yourself

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@VuckingIdiotPerson No, they are for sale ;) Take a look at my profile page, you will find the link there :)

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@VuckingIdiotPerson Thanks a lot! I already released two Albums btw.... xD

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@Arathor1992 Also irgendwie hab ich mir schon gedacht, dass das Lied deinem Geschmack entspricht... xD

[@tillyrocksXD]

Is there anyway you could transpose this for the Violin? I would love to play it.

[@thedude9384]

Can't be better, epic metal of yours.

[@WhiteCloud37]

For Leman Russ and Allfather!!!

[@JessCaron]

I know it's not stealing... I figured that with his background that night have been a possibility (like with the character of Earendil). But it's really cool how you can see old myths throughout fantasy works and such!

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

Partly true: It has been used in a game without my permission.

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@Awair80 Schön wärs... xD Aber danke vielmal für das Lob ;)

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@DerErwecker Odin ist gemeint, siehe Bild im Video.

[@VampyrMentality]

Your music isn't annoying my Friend neither are your messages I enjoy everything!

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@Bloodlywing Hey Phil, danke vielmals für dein wiedermal umwerfendes Kompliment zu meiner Musik! xD Ich hab noch 4 weitere fertige Lieder auf meinem PC zurzeit, die ich nach und nach hochladen werde, also ja.... im Moment gehts echt zur Sache hier ;)

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@EndOfDeceive Danke ;) Nein, ich hab keinen Unterricht genommen und bin auch kein Stück besser geworden xD Der einzige Unterschied ist, dass ich die Gitarrenparts diesmal mehr in den Song integriert hab anstatt sie im Hintergrund dahin vegetieren zu lassen ;)

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@RiseOfEarth Ich kann alle meine Lieder selber spielen, die VST und Magix benutze ich nur, damit der Takt und perfekt ist und dass keine Patzer dazwischen kommen ;)

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@victoriapschen Thats true, it almost looks like KZbin wants to hide the HD function... xD

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@DJproLJ Danke! :) Also an Nightwish erinnert mich das Lied ehrlich gesagt gar nicht^^ Kennst du Equilibrium oder Eluveitie? ich denke damit hätte das schon deutlich mehr Ähnlichkeit.

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@krasnoir Hey, thank you! :) I have 5 finished Songs so far for the next Album, but to decide a Title it's too soon yet ;) Especially because I don't make Concept-Albums, so I have to wait until I have the whole Product before I can name it.

[@StorytellerForeverYT]

Ah I love this celtic music It's so beautiful, Thank you a million times Adrian for sharing all this with us! Currently listening through Adrians, Celtic playlist on youtube... nothing but awesomeness XD

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@DerLudwig6 Hey, danke sehr! :) Ja, es ist ne Flöte, allerdings nicht nur eine, sondern eine Pan- und eine Irische Flöte, die beide dieselbe Melodie übereinander spielen.

[@TomTomator]

Wow! I'm a german boyscout from Munich and I just searched scout songs. After a lot of link-clicking I found your epic channel and I just want to thank you for doing such a great music! You're awesome! Please excuse me if my English is not the best, I'm just learning to speak ;).

[@Laura-G.]

Who’s listening this in 2019 ? 😇

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@laughup02 What's that and how did it lead you here if you don't mind me asking?

[@AdrianvonZiegler]

@msenin I already have several Playlists in my Channel of my own Music :)

[@JordanSwailes]

this music is about woden/odin/odhinn/oden/wotan. the germanic(this includes norse) god of gods, the allfather! not celts or gaels! much respect for the slavs though! i was recently in slovenia and met a few pagan slavs who i learnt from, that their god of thunder and rain is the same as thunor/thor, but carries an axe not hammer, how cool! Perun i think his name is.

[@tiagocox8806]

VERY EXCITING THAT SOUND, WELL REMEMBER THE MEDIEVAL TIMES, LOVE it! CONGRATULATIONS.

[@TheGamer3931]

Yes, but their both sons of the leader of their Pantheons and complete tasks to better benefit the gods and humanity. They don't need to be exactly alike to be equivalents.

[@likoplays]

Endlich einen neuen Soundtrack zum Zeichnen gefunden ;) Danke aus Deutschland ;)

[@marroulhommedesbois1956]

Odin in the picture !

[@sap3480]

yes

[@masterjanuary7380]

Adrian,thank you for everything. Thank you for making this community, this pack. Thank you for making this music, which is too good to put into words. Thank you for reading and replying to our comments as best you can. There is so much I want to thank you for, but I am running out of space now. but remember, no matter what you do, we'll always keep listening to your music, and we'll always love you. I know you probably won't see this, but if you do, remember this comment, for it is truthful.:D

[@LovesDolphinsLots]

Zeus is father of Heracles. (Greek mythology) Odin is father of Thor. (Norse mythology) We cool? :)

[@Felix-mt9kh]

Llevo escuchando esto desde el 2012 y sigo sintiendo lo mismo que la primera vez que la escuche Grande este hombre

[@rubendarkgothic]

muchas felicidades amigo, eres grande y muchas bendiciones; buen trabajo, saludos desde tlahuac mexico

[@lifemusicandnature]

hell! even ensiferum would be proud of such a talented songwriter! keep it up, adrian, your are the best!!!

[@Uncivil-Engie]

It IS reminiscent of The Wanderer ;)

[@LPersFromNowhere]

Just last year, I had no clue this music existed. Then I discovered it. Since then, my friends say I've become darker... Cooler... My writing ability has picked up. My social skills have improved. Thank you. -Rinion

[@livu69]

Hi Adrian! Your songs are awesome as usual, whether they are medieval, celtic or metal. I have a small technical remark: The hi hat sounds seems to be kind of superficial, very dry. It sounds like all the drum sounds(including hi hats) are generated from a unique channel. So when a hi hat sound is generated, cannot be sustained for a long time because the the thread has to generate the next sound... kick, snare or whatever would be the next one. I would try to put hi hats on a separate channel, or if you already are doing this, maybe another VST drum can do a better job. Greetings and keep doing this because your're truly gifted!

[@superkamixguru3308]

This is the kind of music I want to use in a game

[@DoubiDoubi]

Bonjour! I was wondering if I could use your music on my speedpainting video ? They're not monetized, and I would obviously credit you and link all the sources. I love your work

[@hrl_dvdsn]

Thans a lot for this music

[@patentedlightning9075]

+HUNAZ ok we get it.

[@caydeofspaydes]

Odin the Allfather be praised!

[@mattybutter1616]

To my mind it's absolutely the best song he composed but every song he composes is so great=) Thank you

[@hope9259]

Matty Butter gleipnir is my absolute fave of his

[@soulfullofmetal]

Cant wait for the next season of game of thrones yarrrr!!!

[@Kernigisberg]

Keep up the amazing work Adrian! Definitely my favorite composer of all time. If you happen to come over to Finland sometime, give me a heads up and I'll buy you a few rounds.

[@asgaard35]

Awesome, with the picture with Odin, and his horse Sleipnir, Fenris the wolf that run, and the two crows of Odin, Hugin and Munin... Just yeah.

[@suaroizumato5186]

You are so great, i love this Music, I used your 2 h Mix of celtic music for a Projekt for relaxing with the children in the kindergarden and it was perfect

[@1ch3atd3ath]

Adrian if anything, you deserve the recognition. You make some of the most amazing musical pieces I've ever heard in my life. I would be honored if I heard one of your songs in a Video Game.

[@muammaralqawasmi6714]

We love you Adrian..from Palestine with love and peace.

[@isfahan7362]

Greetings from turkey

[@xxREYDELCAOSxx]

adrian, i want to tell you something very importan, i lovet, really, i love your song, it's beautiful and i was close to cry when i first heard, thanks for sharing your talent, do not waste it, and i want to tell you something more, what can i do to have that song on my ipod? it´s not a joke, i talking seriously, i really want hear your song everyday, if you are interested in sharing your song, answer me.

[@Kripa1963]

Awesome ... a real masterpiece Adrian. What a great music.

[@DarkEmissary]

@Xariama The wolves are Geri and Freki who, along with the ravens Huginn and Muninn are familiars of Odin. The wurm in the bottom left has wings which makes it highly unlikely to be Jörmungandr. It's more likely to be the dragon Fafnir, who held a grudge against Odin, Loki and Hænir, after Loki had killed his brother.

[@JuJuBeeyutiful]

This is great! I want to use this and many others in some of my videos. Would you happen to know of anyone else who doesn't mind others using their music in their videos?

[@EiBeiDieMau]

Wow. I don't know why, but this song just fills my eyes with tears. It's simply beautiful. Just.. Wow

[@DarkEmissary]

Nidhöggr is certainly also a possibility. But Nidhöggr is supposed to be in the deepest parts of Helheim or Niflheim gnawing upon the roots of Yggdrasil until the dawn of Ragnarok. He doesn't have any direct link to Odin either, so I consider Fafnir to be more likely.

[@pointlesssowhat]

So you are stunned right??! Watch the interview (/watch?v=a6_4XhE4XfM) you haven't heard the whole story...

[@dionnelightwood]

wow sounds like another massive production with emotion and expressive yet another cool and real track xx
