Great reaction. This cover really doesn’t get played enough on reaction channels. The Wardruna version with Aurora guesting is great and should always be listened to first to experience Einar Selvik’s vision for the song, but there is a special magic to Kalandra’s cover, as there is to other songs they have done. Incidentally, Kalandra’s Katrine Stenbekk worked with Wardruna on their recording of the ‘Kvitravn - First Flight of the White Raven (live album, 2022)’ supporting Lindy-Fay Helle on backing vocal, including on the album’s live version of Helvegen. She can be seen on KZread videos of some of that album’s songs.

Wardruna and Aurora is the original artists. Although its a Wardruna song Einar features many artist for that other spot. Ive seen both Eivør and Maria Franz from the INFAMOUS band Heilung! But Aurora is the most viewed version.

Aurora is the most viewed for good reason.

Interesting.....I've somehow never heard Kalandra until now. I'm a huge *_HUGE_* Aurora fan...for the past 3 years since I first discovered her. And I'd casually hear people mention Kalandra and Aurora in the same breath. But now that I hear her(don't know her name) voice....yep, I totally hear the connection. They both have expert control, lots of soft air flow, and the higher notes ring out like a bell...all with this lilt _and_ power behind it. They both seem to have that in common. I'm definitely going to have to check out more Kalandra after this. SEE!? THIS is why record companies issuing copyright strikes against reaction channels is beyond absurd. Do they _want_ to _hide_ their artists from new fans or something??

Hauntingly beautiful. So ethereal.

So happy to see a reaction to this song! Their sound is so raw and primal! I just love it!

My favorite version of this song. Great reaction

When will you actually react to Wardruna, dude? You are missing out big time!

For real - Wardruna is incredible, especially live 🤘🏻

It’s essentially a funeral dirge, originally written and performed by Wardruna, and is in the show Vikings 🤘🏻 Kalandra’s cover is unique and equally incredible

Yes Wardruna with Gra or Kalandra with Borders.👍

if you want to check out the original I recommend it. I would also like to recommend Runaway by Aurora

You need to hear the original featuring Aurora. kzread.info/dash/bejne/eKKftteBgJzXY9I.html&pp=ygUdd2FyZHJ1bmEgaGVsdmVnZW4gYXVyb3JhIGxpdmU%3D
