Xperiment - Í Gøtu Ein Dag (Official Music Video) 4K

[@withinthegame8001]

For anyone interested, this ballad was first published in 1915 in a Faroese nationalist newspaper - it is about the Viking-Age character Tróndur waking from the dead, sending his friend Geyti to see what the situation was in the islands, and Geyti reports to him how things have become (in the early 1900s), and the Viking-Age Tróndur is left disappointed. In other words, the text signifies the author's disappointments with the current society of the Faroes at the time and yearns for a return to a romanticised past.

[@Tom_Quixote]

Thanks. I was scrolling through the comments to find the explanation for the video. But with those young people keeping the dance alive around the fire, he should not return disappointed.

[@dylanlandry4996]

Lol 11.months ago i made a comment saying how it sounds like this poor dude woke up in the 21st century not really knowing it takes place in the 20th and thinking it takes place during his time

[@Costeniok]

To calm the viking Tróndur down in the 21st century a multicultural and multiracial choir sings again the song; I'm sure he will love it.

[@George-r9l8l]

​@@Costeniokprobably not lol

[@gigiwinther6833]

+Torstein Olafson thanks. That name actually sounds faroese.....

[@frankschmidt2303]

Big cheers from Stockholm Sweden 🇸🇪

[@DrossProwler]

Man, the more I watch the video, the more the actor who plays Tróndur reminds me of the late sir Christopher Lee. Great song!

[@PolarFilms]

You might be on to something ;)

[@ioannispolemarkhos7364]

If I didn't read the subtitles, this would've been pretty intimidating story about some ancient wizard preparing for battle to avenge himself. Instead, he was hit hard by civic development and grain-based economy. And he wasn't even furious, he was just disappointed, as he and his friend hung their head low. He and his friend would likely carve strongly-worded runestones to their local jarl about it.

[@Tom_Quixote]

That's bullshit, but highly amusing :)

[@blindness134]

Being this a Faroese nationalist song written around the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, it sees two legendary figures from the isles' tales and history frowning upon how low their Country fell through the ages, since the advent of Christianity, especially Trondur (the wizard) who was the one that in the year 1000 cursed the christian missionaries that came to convert the Farœ Islands, summoning a storm and sinking their fleet.

[@anoekstrumane3213]

Visited the Faroe Islands a few years back and was introduced to this, so glas to have found it again

[@FataVerde055]

Wow. Chills down the spine. What a great way to illustrate an old tale. Keep it up!

Beautiful guys, much love from Scotland

[@carlamirela4430]

Ouvir a melodia juntamente com as vozes já é uma experiência fantástica, depois que obtive a tradução fiquei muito emocionada. A cultura ancestral das Ilhas Faroe é simplesmente fascinante. Amor eterno!

[@Tobiasskjacobsen]

Amazing sound. It reminds a bit of the soundtrack from The Book of boba fett.

[@ame43332]

I'm in love!

[@koppanypardi998]

Where can I get the music sheet?

[@TheDaffodilia]

Where can I find sheet music for your music?

[@Tom_Quixote]

So he gets resurrected, goes to report on the world of the living, and then... "Sorry sir, they're all watching netflix"

[@PolarFilms]

Exactly. Also known as the degradation of the human state and being as a whole.

[@Tom_Quixote]

@@PolarFilms Some of us are still alive.

[@Freawulf]

Do I hear a part of TÝR's "Styrisvolurin" in this or am I mistaken?! Great song and video, btw! Congratulations!

[@lullikalla]

+Freawulf Thise video is magnificent.Where are you from.

[@bengtsvenson8557]

maybe heri did do the subtitles

[@asbjrnpoulsen9205]

no its made some hundred years ago kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5nFmJWqft5ooMU

[@Freawulf]

Yes, this doesn't mean I'm wrong: only proves how deeply is TÝR's music in the musical traditions of the Føroyar! ;-)

[@asbjrnpoulsen9205]

i only say its done in difrenth ways

[@thomastaylor1268]

I've listened to this song many times, but today I saw the video pop up for the first time. I see that Heri Joensen was involved in translating the lyrics. Does he have any other involvement with Xperiment?

[@PolarFilms]

Not to our knowledge. We were doing a film project with him around the same time so we asked him if he would do the translation as we knew his faroese and english were excellent. I believe he once mentioned in a conversation we had and I quote, that he was a "language nerd" :).

[@meispenguin3885]

Zazage MC but tróndur and geyti were real people

[@tzeditions610]

Is this music original (like folk music) or composed and based on folk music?

[@Vidis88]

Sound like rövarsången, Ronja Rövardotter XD

[@jantoft8991]

Det her er vel så norsk det kan bli,alle land vest for Norge var jo norsk en gang,men vi tapte i Haag mot Danmark etter Napolionkrigen. Vi fulgte Danmark,vi fikk betale for det!

[@eilivulv]

Difor er det viktigt å halda på det me framleis hev og skriva nynorsk. Heldst i lag med breidt talemål. :-)

[@Navajohn1]

I thought this was Black Metal

[@frida2219]

just faroese culture;)

[@ChodeMaster]

Litt for flerkulturelt for meg

how black man appear there? So funny

[@LucidWanderer]

The Faroe men like to import exotic wives lol

[@lowco9575]

im white skinned and born in canada. weird eh

[@trefthergom3085]

It's cultural appropriation to have Africans in this music video/band.

[@muldrothamadness]

They live there. It's their culture. They are Faroese.

[@Ceti2]

​@@muldrothamadness the dude in this vid is Colombian not Faroese. It is cool that he sings in the choir, but by your logic I could go to any random country, sing songs in their language and then transform into their ethnicity. Come on Kyle bro

[@muldrothamadness]

@@Ceti2 My point was if you're born and raised in a place you are apart of that culture regardless of skin colour. Don't read too much between the lines. Did not know he was Columbian though, that's really cool.

[@Indestructional]

Wtf africans doing in this video, it looks extreeemely ridiculous. Cool song btw

[@muldrothamadness]

They live there dumbass
