How is it that Katey Perry, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, and Kanye West have a million record sales for making cliche songs, repetitive beats, and lyrics with very little verse and no nuanced material, and yet, Einar and this amazing orchestra have very little views. I feel as though our generation has lost a very deep appreciation for music.

Receptiveness to great stories means people have matured and understood the struggles and experience in their own lives to love complex stories. We live in a day when most people just sit and get angry at pictures of suffering, and have not experienced things like "starvation", "thirst", abandonment from parents and primary social institutions. They have to understand what life is without culture, to appreciate culture. The answer to that is "Get a job". As the Norwegian motto goes: Do your duty, earn your rights.

And the text is Old Norse from ca. 13th century, I believe. It's a combination of two poems; the first is Völuspá from Poetic Edda, while the second is from Darráðarljóð from Njálssaga (Saga of Njáls). In Iceland - where these texts were written - though the language changed over the course of 800 years, we can read and understand Old Norse a wee bit easier than other Scandinavian languages. I hope this helps.😊

check out Wardruna its the singer's main band and also big part of Vikings soundtrack

Featuring the brilliant Einar Selvik of Norwegian musical project Wardruna (as featured in many episodes of Vikings) - check out their albums 'Runaljod - Gap Var Ginnunga' (2009) & 'Runaljod - Yggdrasil' (2013) or video/sound clips online, then buy the albums!

One of the most moving performances I have ever seen. Einar Selvik is just amazing...he manages to dominate this performance despite so many instruments and performers. He is just🔥🔥

The best show ever made Vikings, nothing can beat it, and nothing better will ce out in the future

Manners are great too, but it is an excerpt from Völuspá regarding the state of man leading into Ragnarök... Brothers will fight and kill each other, sisters' children will defile kinship. It is harsh in the world, whoredom rife an axe age, a sword age shields are riven a wind age, a wolf age before the world goes headlong. No man will have mercy on another.

If someone is interested in lyrics: I'm not Norwegian but I've searched a lot and this is a combination of 2 Norse poems: Völuspa (beginning) and Darraðarljóð (rest). Lyrics are created probably by these parts: Bræðr munu berjask ok at bönum verðask, munu systrungar sifjum spilla; Skelfr Yggdrasils askr standandi, ymr it aldna tré, en jötunn losnar." Vindum vindum vef Darraðar þar er vé vaða vígra manna látum eigi líf hans faraz eigu valkyrjur vals um kosti. Vítt es orpit fyr valfalli...(2x reapeated??) Vítt es orpit fyr valfalli rifs reiðiský. Rignir blóði; I found a translation of these poems and the whole seems to mean: Brothers shall fight | and fell each other, And sisters' sons | shall kinship stain; Yggdrasil shakes, | and shiver on high The ancient limbs, | and the giant is loose; Let us now wind the web of war Where the warrior banners are forging forward Let his life not be taken; Only the Valkyries can choose the slain. Blood rains from the cloudy web Blood rains from the cloudy web On the broad loom of slaughter. This song is fantastic and Einar's voice.... Listening it live - a dream...
