We need Xena back in our lives
This just gives me chills all over my body. Xena was the best show i ever seen
She's playing that cello like she's shredding a guitar and I am here for it.
The song's meaning to Xena fans: The warrior princess is about to kick some serious butt. Epic fights begin! The song's meaning to Bulgarians: "Hey mom, there's music playing. I'm going to see what's up, see you later mom."
Brasil loves Xena
It's really amazing to see that in places so far away from Bulgaria , someone performes our folk music. You are amazing guys, thank you for your incredible work !
I cried. This is perfection! All my Warrior Princess feels!
Wow. Changing the 9/8 into alternating 7/8 and 11/8 is definitely a power move.
I always liked all the music on Xena
This is called "The Warrior Princess" , it's on the first Xena Soundtrack track 2. It was always my favourite Xena theme. Its known to many Xenites as the Evil Xena Theme. Xena would always kick major ass when this was playing that's why I loved it so much :) GREAT JOB GUYS i LOVE THIS!
English translation: A kaval is playing A kaval is playing, mother, Up-down, mother, up-down, mother. Kaval is playing, mother, Up-down, mother, outside the village. I'll go there, mother, to see it, To see it, mother, to hear it. If it is played by a fellow villager I'll love him from dawn to noon. If it is played by a foreigner I'll love him for entire my life.
...This was a religious experience for me. I grew up on Xena. My mom told me I had a Xena complex because I always thought I could take on an army. So much of who I am is because of how I idolized Xena growing up. I rewatched it as an adult and just going "Oh that's where I got ___" Hearing this... idk how to describe how it just effected me emotionally.
Such a delight to FINALLY see the ladies and band behind these iconic voices and sound, Xena is apart of my-and many childhoods growing up, and now who I am. Thank you 🙏🏼😌😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am nearly 30 years old and loved xena since I was a kid but I was today years old when I found out that this is an actual language and is Bulgarian, that’s so cool and amazing these are some talented ladies and it brings me back to all the times in the series xena would battle someone
Love it, brings back childhood memoirs the 90s. Bulgaria in ancient history was once called Thrace, which the ancient Thracians played a role with the ancient Greeks. Lo Duca and Raimi gave it a hit with there production.
I love how the musicians ALL go crazy at around the 3:00 minute mark!
It sounds so ancient, yet powerful at the same time....
Absolutely love this version! All the singers were in sync as well as beautiful and their voices were incredible. The musicians too, were amazing, and kept up with the song perfectly. Gave me goosebumps, literally. Very mystical and magical.
i am obsessed! they sound amazing and the musicians are phenomenal
This is the best interpretation of Bulgarian folk music I have ever heard! Perfect!
This was sufficiently face melting.
The harmonics and dissonance . . . it's so beautiful!!!!!! ;^; It's too beautiful. . .
This music just transcends me to some other world...Xena best show ever!!!
All thanks to my home country Bulgaria and the incredible, magical folk music of ancient times 💜🎶
This was amazing! I always love this Bulgarian folk style of singing and I have the Xena series to thank for that. I do love the theme song and many of Lo Duca's Bulgarian folk music-inspired original score for the series. But the Lo Duca arrangement from Xena used here is NOT the theme song, but a song used during most of the fight scenes called, "The Warrior Princess"; take it from a true Xenite.
This performance takes me to a different era especially if u got them headphones in. Im having visions of dancing in a desert paradise for a king and queen, swirling round n round like a tornado in a trance-like state...lace flowing gown, sequin head dress, bare feet and possessed by the rhythm. I catch the kings eye much to the dismay of his queen. I am then secretly put to death by the queen soon after. Bravo bravo 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That is one complicated piece. Amazing.
No wonder I loved the Xena theme so much! It has beautiful Slavic roots!
i can't stop repeating it
Bulgarian is such a beautiful language.
I love this song!!! I love Xena Warrior Princess so much.
Nothing compares to xena will watch till I'm gone. Yeyeyeye love you xena,,, xenites
Beautiful! I knew this song because of Xena Warrior Princess.
This bulgarian the perfect choice for XENA: It’s European yet exotic, Feminine and powerful, with a touch of the supernatural!
Il y a longtemps que je n'avais pas écouté une musique qui m'ait autant emporté. Vraiment extraordinaire. Merci de partager votre style, votre savoir,
Que espetáculo !! Brasil 2019
Момчета и момичета, вий изкъртихте кюнците! 🤘🤘 Чак ми потече сълза!
all my hair is rising up in a warcry to this song haha
I love Xena and the music. Great job.
Absolutely beautiful
These are the real musicians in the world!! Wooo Mainstream music industry is garbage compared to this 😍😍😍
Absolutely gorgeous.......and such complicated harmonies. Good for Berklee to incorporate this music in their curriculum.
I frickin love Xena, and this music and jam session so does her justice. Amazing!
majestic. covering Voix's Kaval Sviri (and even trying to sing it) is a brave task, but the result was beyond expectation! Mind-blowing, bravo!
So unbelievably clean. Great work. So different to my ears!!!!
This is a BRILLIANT arrangement. XWP was one of my all-time favourite TV shows back in the 1990s. Thank you for sharing this gem!
There are similarities to the folk music of my homeland in the Balkans. Very beautiful, and this is by far my favourite take on this song.
ABSOLUTELY FREAKING INCREDIBLE !!!!!
Bulgarian traditional singing style mixed with a rock style of singing - wow! :D
Wow. Raging tune, rich vocals and interesting instrumentation - nice job! I've already listened 3 times in a row and forwarded to some friends. Keep up the great work!
This is AMAZING! Gosh, I miss Xena!
Google Kaval Sviri for the Bulgarian folk tune Lo Ducca used as an inspiration for the opening credits.
One thousand likes and more. I’m obsessed with this performance. It’s amazing! Thank you 🙏 ❤
Brilliant, the best singers I have heard in a looooong time
i love hearing dissonant sounds/harmonies
Amazing ! Greetings from a Greek Thracian.
GOT GOOSEBUMPS.. WOW..
Muito Obrigado! thanks from Brazil!
Muito lindo. Como está difícil hoje em dia o povo curte coisas lindas como estás. Parabéns!
I could feel the strength of Xena the legendary princess warrior whose forged into the crisis heat of battle. Remember this is why a land of turmoil cried out for a hero I could feel her presents within the music like if Xena's Chakram & her Sword has stroke me down threw the throat an pierce my heart an got send back at a time of ancient God's come to life.
Absolutely unbelievable!!!! What a fun, challenging, and awesome piece of music! I'm obsessed.
Best show ...Best music...

Do you all have any idea how HARD you have to work to rock a clarinet?!
The harmonies. ❤❤
Super
I NEED LYRICS PPL! I love this! 😍😍
Disregarding the meaning of the lyrics a little, but this version is AWESOME!!!!! I LOVE the screaming strings, tortured clarinet, and 3-part scatting all pushed into that aggressive, nasal, forward Bulgarian tonespace.
I love this ! The furies! Just beautiful and the instruments are. Awesome too 💋
GODDESS HAS RETURNED!
Choir of Angels
