[@missk8tie]

What was name of the Indian band you used for the clip at 1:55 please?

[@Venus-in-Bluejeans66]

These guys are graduates of the Mongolian Music Conservatory with degrees in Classical Music. They're fabulous musicians. Their albums are a combination of traditional Mongolian influences and modern rock. They are terrific "live" performers. Thanks for the reaction.

[@richardbradley2335]

Oh lovely info there.

[@PopsBarnCatMafia]

I'VE BEEN WONDERING when you would finally find this gem. Their, "Song of Women" ft. Lzzy Hale from Halestorm is a great one as well

[@terryallen7356]

I LOVE Song of Woman. I hope The Fairy Voice Mother reacts to it.

[@dougel4709]

Agreed!! "SoW" would be a great next step into The Hu!!!

[@deeteenw]

I concur

[@sunken8246]

There’s also one that just came out a month ago called “This is Mongol” ft William DuVall from Alice In Chains

[@cristiaolson7327]

Every girl on the planet should hear Song of Women. Such a fantastic and empowering track, and Lizzy's voice goes so well with the guys too.

[@ronparsons8786]

I don't always ride my horse into battle against the invading barbarian hordes, but when I do, this song is in my headphones

[@mauijttewaal]

Rotfl

[@falxonPSN]

Stay angry, my friends.

[@ozymandias5257]

I don't always ride my horse into battle to overthrow the Jin Dynasty, but when I do my slaves are playing this tune. Stay bloodthirsty my friends.

[@HassanSabbaku]

If you'd be listening to this song you'd be part of the Invading Barbarian Horde 😂🤘

[@RandiPoitras]

I saw someone else’s comment on another video saying they’d seen the hu live at a nordic festival and they had a few thousand vikings fist pumping and chanting the whole song - can you even imagine, that would be incredible.

[@AkasaurusRex]

Someone once said I look like a cross between a Viking and a Mongol especially when my hair grows out lol

[@OxholeBassBananas]

The Hu are so amazing live! like 8 people on stage and 7 of them throat singing and all of them playing different instruments... And the best is that even if you can't understand a word, you can always shout "Hu! HU!..." in almost every song because of the steady base rythm. It feels so good when the whole audience rides on that primal atmosphere

[@yarareadstheclassics]

I saw them in concert a couple of years ago, and it just fed my soul! The energy they created in concert was such a healing, uplifting, and empowering energy. 💙🌸✨️

[@Ines-rn1si]

👉The Hu: This band was founded in 2016. The syllable Hu in the band name is the Mongolian root for the word human. The band name roughly translates as 'the people'. The band's logo shows a snow leopard. The band chose this animal because of its mythical significance. Among other things, it is said to be a symbolic animal for ancient Mongolian tribes. The four members of the band, Gala (Singer), Jaya (Singer), Enkush (Mongolian horse head violin, Undertone singing) and Temka (Mongolian Gitarre), all have degrees in music from the Mongolian State Conservatory. Jaya teaches there under his real name G. Nyamjantsan. The HU have modified and strengthened their instruments, which were mostly played sitting down. The Hu call their style of music Hunnu Rock. They use traditional Mongolian musical instruments such as the horse head violin, the Mongolian guitar and also employ traditional Mongolian undertone singing. The HU have modified and strengthened their instruments, which were mostly played sitting down. From the field of heavy metal they mainly borrow the hammering basses for their music.

[@adrianmay3573]

I knew they were Mongolian and I love their music I'm from the United States me my dad and my husband all of their music and their throat singing it's amazing I love seeing their instruments to. It gives you a little bit but look in their culture

[@ethanmorgan7823]

AKA Mongolian throat metal 🔥🔥

[@TheSteelGuy]

The joy on your face when the singing kicked in! Glad you liked this.

[@grizzlynad]

And the delighted giggle 😉😁

[@hasgath]

Hi Molly!! Curiosity: The instrument Morin Khuur, is very prominent in the band, it usually has a sculpture of a horse's head on top and its strings are traditionally made with horsehair, and these beautiful "choros" are an attempt to imitate sounds of horses neighing through the Mongolian prairies, an animal symbol of the traditional peoples of this beautiful country. Something the band tries to bring is the fusion of their country's traditions with modern music. Congrats on the amazing reaction...again!

[@mattblatchley2061]

These guys did a version of this with Jacoby Shaddix from Papa Roach doing kindofa English translation alternating verses...it got a TON of airplay in my area which was cool and how a lot of us came to know them...they also released a Metallica cover all in their native language ---it was really cool...love that these guys were embraced!!!

[@mkxv1]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, they have the most badass looking traditional and non-tradition instruments in rock/metal Glad u did this one FVM! Fusion of styles can be sooo powerful I wish bands like this would be better recognised by media . People should dare more mixing and matching styles vocals techniques and random sounds.. we need it now more than ever

From China to the middle east and into eastern europe!

[@АлександрРепников-э2к]

Одна из самых живых реакций, что я видел на эту песню. 💘😍

[@BetsySchiller-sj2sm]

Love this! The string instrument has a horse head because the horse is symbolic for Mongolians. So unique! I hope you feel better soon! ❤

[@anthonywilson1077]

I honestly haven't clicked on a video faster! I knew going in you'd have so much fun with it. The joy on your face, and in your reactions, truly made my day! Thank you!

[@roelofvuurboom5939]

Ok, lets all agree this girl really frikking understands music.

[@tombland3779]

I've seen this live its fecking awsome

[@srudine]

I'm always amazed at how incredibly funny and instructive your reactions are. I love your sense of humor! The snippets that you insert (so to speak) are hilarious. The hardest part about being a fan of your channel is waiting for the next release. You are THE BEST on youtube at what you do. I love the extra out-of-make-up takes in the Fairy Flat as instructional filler. Love to hear a reaction of Geoff Castelucci's cover of Ain't No Sunshine. Feel better soon. All the best to you and Daphne.🤠🤘

[@TheFairyVoiceMother]

Oh that’s so lovely of you, I am so so happy to hear that 💜 lots of love always.

[@yarareadstheclassics]

Geoff Castellucci's version of Far Over The Misty Mountains Cold is one of my favorites of his.

[@robertcampopiano6001]

I remember when I first saw this video and was completely blown away. The fusion of traditional Mongolian music snd western rock is absolute genius. It’s as sophisticated a style of music as you’ll find anywhere.

[@Robert_Herring]

Beautiful reaction and analysis, Lolli. I knew you would enjoy this. The Hu are fantastic, and live they are incredible, one of my favorite concerts I have attended. When I saw them they performed a tune, "Black Thunder", from their latest album. At times there were 6 men throat singing in unison and it sounded immense. I recommend watching the music videos, parts 1 & 2, they are better than many movies. Being so dramatic probably means it would make for a good reaction video, however. For a reaction, I recommend the acoustic studio performance of "Shireg Shireg". It's a beautiful song, and gives opportunity to see the gentlemen up close.

[@blairkimberlin3447]

Sooooooo glad you finally got around to these guys. I never knew I needed Mongolian heavy metal throat singing in my life but apparently I did. I see them every time they're performing within a couple of hundred miles of me. Their energy in concert is amazing. They do a collaboration with jacoby shaddix in this song and it's great. My favorite is Yuve Yuve Yu, it's kinda bluesy and the video is incredible. If you're really interested in their technique you should look up info on the individual singers. They are each proficient in at least one technique, the lead singer is prominent in each category of throat singing

[@arianalittauer7155]

Second the "Yuve Yuve Yu" reaction request. Love it.

[@yarareadstheclassics]

Yuve Yuve Yu was my favorite too! Now it's tied with The Woman Song. My professional bellydance troupe performed a theatrical piece to Wolf Totem. So awesome!

[@chriso6719]

These guys are awesome live, saw them open for Halestorm. They call their sound, 'Hunnu rock'. 'Hu' is inspired by the ancient Mongol/Turkic Hunnu empire 4 members and 4 touring members. Gala and Enkush on Morin Khuur and throat singing. Jaya - throat singing, Tumuur Hhuur (jaw harp), Tsuur(end blown flute) Temka- Tovshuur. Touring members: Ono- percussion Jamba -guitar Davaa- bass Odko- drums. This song was one of several that were redone with new English lyrics and guest singers. This one with Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach). Also try Song of Women with Lzzy Hale (Halestorm), and Yuve Yuve Yu, either original or with Danny Case (From Ashes to New)

[@laurencemayshroom5940]

I match your ouuuuuuuu noise as my reaction to your analysis. Bloody love learning this stuff from you! Has everyone else fallen in love?!

[@Seven50ml]

FVM always makes me smile. Thanks for that.

[@PeterTurnerBexley12]

You are a treasure - I don't watch any other vocal reactions any more

[@01byrox]

I love ur reactions to these types of vids, u can tell u've not listen before, down to ur face and excited squeals u make watching them

[@jinjerfyre]

Got super excited when I saw the thumbnail, these guys are epic!! Sorry couldn't make premiere, bloody working!! Fab reaction and analysis as always xx

[@lgjm5562]

"done in a classy way." She actually put the right word to how I feel about this song. Amazing.

[@richardfranz3180]

Almost didn't wait until the end. So glad I did. Our girl must be feeling better. "Dirty Loops".

[@rexb2918]

I've been waiting for this one for a long time and I must admit it was more than worth the wait.

[@moranjackson7662]

I discovered you in a "best of" reaction video to Disturbs Sound of Silence. Your enthusiasm was fascinating. Then I saw this video and had to drop by. Very well worth it!

[@ryansmallwood1178]

Lots of fun extended vocal techniques and instruments in this one, thanks as always!

[@roadwarrior2348]

The Hu played in my city about 1 yr ago and im soooo glad I went, it was an absolute epicular concert. I would recommend seeing them live, its a cultural and religious experience. As usual.. a very informative and funny review thanks for that.

[@dgt83]

The HU - Black Thunder is another amazing song worth checking out.

[@TheRealityleak]

Woman's song is also amazing by The Hu Band! Great video for that too!

[@martinmckowen1588]

The Hu and Heilung are my go to for motivation

[@C4rL72]

seen these in concert not long ago in Manchester, superb, sound JUST like they do on video. One of the best gigs ive been too.

[@rodwestonable]

Love The Hu! Great job with the overtones! Excellent reaction, as always

[@filterfreephotography]

It's always amazing to see you react to some of these more unique groups. I especially enjoy your knowledge, but even more the fact that you can replicate the style, whether it is throat, growl, Christina, etc. Always a joy to watch your channel. Thanks again!

[@TheFairyVoiceMother]

Awh thank you so much 🥹

[@gignacr]

I never saw someone so pationate about something and so good to explain something who can be quiet complicated in a so simple way. YOu are not just a great vocal coach but a great teacher. And a real sunshine!

[@Lulabee2024]

The COOLEST frickin song I've heard in FOREVER!!!! WOW!! JUST WOW 😂😂😂😂

[@Samurai_Stoner]

Love love love The HU please please do more of them!

[@rajivlather8918]

Yu (female Hu) are amazing ! And of course this band I have listened for last 3-4 years on and off; and they are so different and yet uplifting.

[@syyneater]

Your personality shines through everything you do and you’re always ready to try a new sound/technique. Anytime I watch I learn something new and get a good laugh. I’m so glad the algorithm gods sent me your way!

[@TXTrojan]

I absolutely love that you try these non-traditional sounds - throat singing, beat boxing sound effects, etc.....its not just because I would laugh if I tried - but your understanding of how these sounds are produced.

[@davidpetersonharvey]

I recently discovered my false folds, thanks in part to you, and find I have an upper and lower area, the lower produces no discomfort or tension. I've used false folds like a throat clearing to growl the sax for years. I've tried moving it down. It changes the sound but also makes it much easier., with no tension. I think my voice teacher is back at our learning center tomorrow. I'll have ro talk with him about this during our lesson. I mentioned it to him before he left and he's excited to talk about it. His wife just had their first child, so he has been out for a week. Peace

[@wolfmomma]

That little song on the mini guitar (or whatever it was) at the end was my favorite part of the entire video. You bring so much joy to our world. Never stop.

[@TheFairyVoiceMother]

That’s so sweet of you Alisa 🥹 thank you so much 🩷🩷

[@Lee-vp8vs]

Saw the Hu last December in Camden. Amazing gig. So cool. By the end of it, everyone was ready to go and invade the eurasian Steppe (islington) on small horses (electric scooters). Recommend seeing them live..

[@nicolasl8640]

Already knew and loved the song for some time now but watching your reaction and explanation made me addicted again to it! Would love to see you react to Heilung "in Maidjan" !! Best for the channel!

[@TheRealityleak]

Love this band already. Can't wait for Lolli to look at it! Hope she looks for the lyrics and the interpretation too, cos "wow"

[@hisshadow9525]

Dear Lolli, thank you for this reaction+analysis! Get well as fast as you can pls!❤

[@sandrak.robbins6305]

Thank you, this is powerful and fantastic in so many ways.

[@adrianmay3573]

Me and my husband my dad always loved the HU. I love the throat singing I love their instruments and gives you a look in their culture it is amazing.

[@saceurai6629]

As a Mongolian, and a beatbox enthusiast, these past few weeks have been blessing after blessing XD

[@kwasg3]

OH MY GAWD such an articulate talented artist with a beautiful mind!!! Ya The Hu pretty awesome too.... "this just makes my soul smile for so many reasons..." - I so know what you mean... (sigh) my day is made .... oh tell us more about this premier??!!

[@pyratemage]

YYAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! Thanks for reacting to something from The Hu. They're pretty awesome by themselves as well as several collaborations and even a cover or two. They even created a new language for the song from Jedi: Fallen Order. I think you'll appreciate the collab w/ Lzzy Hale, Song of Women. I hope you are feeling better. You look smashing! Love the extras, outtakes, and a glimpse behind the FVM curtain. ❤😍

[@RelUnrelated]

I adore seeing your joy when their vocals start! ♥

[@MichaelPallada]

I'm going to see them live at a festival coming June, can't wait!

[@TheFairyVoiceMother]

Ahhh that sounds amazing!! 💜

[@cullain3967]

I love the joy with which you encounter new things...🥰

[@corvoechoes9649]

I cannot recommend seeing them live enough. They are INCREDIBLE.

[@danielgro1039]

Last year i Had the great pleasure to see them live at Cologne... One of the best Club concerts i have ever visited. It was an experience i Will Always wear in my Heart. So much Energy, 7nbelievable

[@geertdelange4785]

Hallo, nice to discover you. My previous favorite singer and probably the best I heard in the past 50 years of listening to music is: The lead singer Floor Jansen from Nightwish. Floor is from the Netherlands and the band with the most brilliant composer coming from Finland. They music is Symphonic Metal (using backtracks of the London Philharmonic Orchestra) with influences of Keltisch and Folkisch sounds and instruments, like Flute and Backpipe. All that played by their multi instrument player Troy Donockley of England. I discovered Floor and Nightwish recently and as an old guy, I'm instantly became a great fan. I hope you gone watch them, and I'm hoping to see a reaction of you. You have a very nice kind of technical /humoristic reactioning (is that English? 😅) Greetings from the Netherlands, Geert de Lange

[@kbibeast]

Absolutely LOVE your reactions, your knowledge and passion really come through in your videos. Periphery is a band I've been dying to see you react to, bc their vocalist is just superb, and their song Satellites is probably his best performance to date. Hope to see you do a video on it!

[@johnjohn37371]

That was wonderful! My days are always better when you drop a new reaction...you may have seen and heard her, if not, Eivør performing Falling Free from the Old Theater is somewhat life-changing....

[@Angi-no-e]

This is the third video of yours that I've watched in a row, my first three. It's nice to see someone who seems to enjoy music as much as I do. Subscribed.

[@AlexanderNash]

Your analysis blows my mind.

[@max.lindgren]

Always great to catch a premiere, hope the bronchitis goes away fast. Get well soon, hugs from Sweden.

[@anathardayaldar]

Expert analysis as always. Explaining the chords blew my mind. None of the other reactors have done that. But I thought she had done this group years ago. Is this a reboot?

[@joeb4142]

Nope.

[@mitchellpark7157]

If you get the chance to see them live, TAKE IT! I saw them last summer, they were incredible and fun! I will gladly see them again!

[@q3scooter52]

Best reaction I’ve seen to this!!

[@shaunmorris8176]

Hi from Adelaide Australia, I was lucky enough to have seen them live twice ❤

[@zol.jargal7726]

Thanks for this reaction😊🎉

[@MrBboyval]

I couldn’t help but chuckle at the Pings reference bit lol I love it!

[@yarareadstheclassics]

This song always gives me goosebumps. I love their songs Yuve Yuve Yu, and The Woman Song. I saw them in concert a couple of years ago, and they're even better in person!

[@robertedthomas]

You have so many talents, you're amazing

[@jasonlmeadows]

I just saw them this past Wednesday when they opened for Iron Maiden in Tacoma. I had never heard of them before that night and now I am totally hooked.

[@droidattack2888]

Love your amazing reactions and just wanted to say that you are gorgeous and your charisma in intoxicating. Thanks for all your hard work on this channel.

[@jukeboxdave6026]

Great reaction get well soon love and respect from up north nidderdale love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍

[@billynair]

I got into Throat Singing from my Audio/Video teacher in college (Audio Engineer for the Neon Trees (Name Drop)) when he showed us a documentary on the making of "Back Tuva Future" by Kongar-ool Ondar, and when you did your demonstration at 2:07 it sounded a lot like him, very cool.

[@Majic2657]

Their sound is great. Hope U feel better and u remind me of a flower child (lots of love, in tune with nature, a positive attitude and loves music)

[@cjcurcio]

As a musician/music theory geek I really appreciate your approach to analyzing notes/scales. I really enjoy modal/non-western scales/music - glissando, etc.! The rock inclusion is great!

[@LifeFindTheWay]

Love the way you reaction to the song.

[@atennyson4143]

LOVE your classically trained take on this!!!! Fascinating and educational ;)

[@sallyltan]

I have been waiting for this reaction. ❤

[@Chuck.1715]

10:00 the tribal drums, and the HU sound... me, yeah chanting their band name😆😆. I love the reactions, they are such a good mix of emotions, and vocal nerd talk, and vocal talent to demonstrate what you are talking about.

[@L9te]

So many thanks Lolli . Sublime music and a fabulous analysis simply leaves me purring away ; hope that helps you in return for your efforts despite being poorly . Absolutely purrfect , as usual . Love you forever FVM .

[@alloysiouschin4675]

Had the blessing of them coming down to Malaysia to perform. Mental.... really...

[@stevek5332]

The Hu have a song "Song of Women" on their first album. Prior to their US tour, they contacted Lzzy Hale wondering if she would be interested in writing related English lyrics over their music and perform the fusion with them. There is a BTS video where both sides, Lzzy and the Hu, explain the importance of women to them. It is somewhat of a spoiler if you think you might want to react to the result of this fusion first, so you can easily find a link to the video. Here is the BTS video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJ2ulKetfZh5gNk

[@frederickgramcko5758]

I could only watch this because of you. . . You always put a smile on my face, every time I tune in. . Extraordinary breakdown my dear. . . You are indeed so fabulous. ❤ . . Obviously this group is not for me, but I do greatly appreciate that it is, not the norm. . . .Oh, RECHENKA my lovely harpy. 💓✌🙏👍🇺🇸🇩🇰🏴‍☠️💞

[@pondboy3682]

🧚‍♂️ I just love how well you know every aspect of your instrument! ❤

[@kiyokomori371]

I am actually a massive fan of mixing classical or even ancient types of music and instruments with modern rock. Another band with the same vibe but Japanese flavored is Wagakki Band. Love them so much and would love to see you analyze any of their songs really.

[@AndrewinAus]

Great reaction Lolli, I very much enjoy you finding new music to explore, I had a feeling when I saw that you had posted this video that you would enjoy the ride, pun totally intended. I remember discovering The Hu a few years ago with this very song, the fusion of ancient throat singing with modern music just tickled me. Same went with the visuals of the visuals in the video. The Mongolian Horde and their horse giving way to motorcycles.

[@agnieszkazuk]

Graet reaction! I love your detalied comments :-) I know you pay more attention to music, performance and voice but the lyrics are very interesting and meaningful here (subtitles)

[@AkasaurusRex]

Yea gods you are frakkin Gorgeous! I love everything British and been getting into everything Mongolian just before I discovered the Hu. And I;m a Japanese Canadian....also love the Greeks n Hummus.....lol

[@richardhawken6586]

the force is strong with this one...

[@Lulabee2024]

Everytime I hear this on my headphones I think of American Indian music and I hum what I have heard of recordings and their chants and they sound to me ... perfectly harmonic❤❤❤

[@dalelingard3913]

The Dirty Stank face at 6:30 :D when the fairy voice mother pulls this face, you know the music's good! :D

[@howardsmith3758]

So glad I wasn't the only one recommending The Hu! I was beginning to think I was alone in the overlapping Venn diagram of Fairy Voice Mother/Electric Mongolian Horse Fiddle fans. phew!

[@Hangar402]

Fiiiiinally can cross this one off my list

[@jeff-buri-jeff3716]

Thanks for a cool reaction to a very cool song!
