Here's a remake of my song Sigurd the Crusader. I've decided to remake a lot of my earlier songs as I have to admit, until shamefully recently, I was still making them on my phone with the built-in phone microphone. As a result, the quality is less than desirable on a lot of my earlier stuff. Music, lyrics and performance by myself. The song is written in Old Norse to commemorate the Norse hero Sigurd the Crusader (Sigurðr Jórsalafari, literally "Sigurd the Jerusalem-Farer"). The events relayed in the song are given in the Saga of Sigurd the Crusader, attributed to Snorri Sturluson. Sigurd wended his way from Norway down to England, whence he moved on to Iberia, and fought “heathen” (in the saga this word refers to Muslims) pirates and soldiers that were occupying the peninsular and the Balearic Islands. From there they go through Sicily and onwards to Acre and Jerusalem, where King Baldwin I of Jerusalem bids Sigurd assist on a military campaign to Sidon to recover lands for Christendom. I hope you enjoy the song! It goes without saying that my intention is exclusively to teach history and languages through song. I do not condone, endorse or seek to glorify violence.

Great Channel promoting culture and epic poetry of different peoples. There is a good Chant on my Channel ive made a video but definitely think you should remaster it and show the world.
Fantastic! Fun facts - Sigurd was only 18 years old when he lead the crusade (1108-1111). His great grandfather was Harald Hardråde, who died at Stamford bridge in 1066. When he died in 1130, the Norwegian civil war broke out.
As an icelander that's heard many, Old norse songs (icelandic being very similar to old norse) Hearing you sing this and pronounce it so well, and the lyrics actually flow, and aren't just a jumbled mess of wrods brings a tear to my eye. Skál félagi!
This song is genuinely mind blowing for me. To hear Old Norse pronounced correctly and transformed into a new song with original lyrics. Since most bands who sing in Old Norse are generally Pagan and don't know the language and have to use the Eddas for lyrics, this automatically entirely separates you from them in the best way possible! Finding your channel is certainly one of the best things that's happened to me in these past five years. These songs have helped me develop my own accent and pronunciation with speaking Old Norse and taught me so much history of the Christian kings of Norway, which are effectively becoming my favorite kings in Norwegian history, alongside King Haraldr Yngling and Haraldr Harðráði. I still can't believe that the Norwegians became Crusaders! Quite literally Christian Vikings who achieved greater fame, sailed to further seas, and earned greater glory than their pagan forefathers. It's genuinely so incredible to me and you have my deepest thanks for teaching this history in the tongue of the Northmen with your own incredible music! Skál, bróðir!
Not surprising considering most sagas that have survived through the centuries were written by Christians and who therefore had no interest in praising and memorialise those Vikings who still followed Germanic/Norse polytheism. Another fact is that the Vikings didn't write down their sagas (for they did not have a complete writing system of their own like the Christian had), instead, the sagas were pasted down from one generation to the next, via oral tradition. Which could lead to one saga being lost to history. It is also not surprising since when the sagas were written down, centuries have already pasted since the Viking age, so many sagas may have been forgotten by then. Plus, Snorri most likely didn't write down everything about the old Germanic/Norse polytheism. Adding to this is the fact that most renowned figures of the Vikings age lived closest to the centuries. When the sagas were written down, and so those who followed Norse/Germanic polytheism that were renowned may already have been forgotten by then. My favourite Christian Vikings are as follows: 1. Hákon "goði" Haraldrson. 2. Haraldr "hárðráði" Sigurðarson. 3. Óláfr "skautkonungr" Eiríkrson. 4. Knútr Sveinnson. 5. Gunnarr "á Hliðarendi" Hámundarson.
to explain the remifications of this wish of yours come true unseen by you to you exceeds my capacity for patience. relinquish the cross and you may get to stand by his side instead of against him, golem.
Imagine having an 18 year old go on a Crusade and win many victories, enter the gates of Jerusalem and gain a legendary reputation. Seems unthinkable in this age where we are led by old wrinkly farts
I gotta say this is amazing. I know of very few people who know multiple languages like you and can speak them fluently. I'm English as well as having Scottish, Irish, Welsh and Norwegien blood. Your songs have encouraged me to learn more about Scandanavia and Scottish history so thank you and keep making these great videos!
Ah yes, just casually give your fleet to the emperor in exchange for a bunch of horses because of sheer will to travel by land and visit more realms. Sigurd was probably the most passionate "tourist" of his time. I bet he became a crusader just to see the Mediterranean, with killing Sarracines as just a cherry on top. Anyway, thank you far your work, Skald. It is probably a ton of work to create any of your beautiful songs.
Hello from Japan! What wonderful music! Rhythmic, rich, and the beauty of the language is woven in a fascinating way. I love this song! It's just the best! Oh, I love music that transports my heart from my country to a foreign land... like yours! P.S.: I used Google Translate for this comment (also for this sentence). I apologize if I used the wrong expression.
Bro just set sail to destroy pirates, baptize heathens, save the holy lands and give his ships to the roman emperor all in the age of eighteen. what an absolute giga chad fr.
Another great music piece, look forward to the next, Sigurðr was the first king to go on a crusade. Which ecouraged others like Fredrick Barabarossa of the Holy Roman Empire, Phillip "Augustus" of France and Richard "the Lionheart" of England.
The Dark Ages have quickly become my favorite period in all of history thanks to these songs, their tales of warrior kings and heroic deeds. Hearing them in long dead tongues makes me feel like I'm looking through a window to a world long past in a way that a history book could never. You're doing God's work by keeping these stories alive for us!

its still debated as to weather it was a crusade or a Viking fashion pilgrimage, as Sigurd was due to be married so i may have just been one last adventure with the boys before settling down
The most epic bachelor party

I still think the Christian Norse sagas are better than the pagan ones
Because they are.
All Icelandic sagas, even those mentioning Norse myths, were written in Christian times tho
@lukefriesenhahn8186 Yes indeed, Sigurd the Crusader, St Magnus Erelendson, St Ragnarvald Kali Kollson, Harald Haradra the Varangian Guard, and even Leif Erikson became a Christian
@@Highwayman32 Makes it even better. Thanks for the information.
@lukefriesenhahn8186 My pleasure brother
Would love a Palastinalied cover in Gothic
The original lads' holiday
Made me chuckle
Heathen pirates raiding- what a mistake then to meet the gratest raiders of all, vikings. Thats really bad luck.

Sigurd I Magnusson "the Crusader" Jorsalfare, King of Norway is your second great aunt's great uncle's wife's 20th great grandfather.
Hey, can you translate the Serbian song "The terrifying judgement" into Old Norse, it would be really cool 😀
Vikings were epic Pagan Norse warriors
Then they converted to Christianity.
And becane epic Christian Norse warriors.
The writing on top some times makes sense as a guy from denmark
Amazing song about Sigurd the Crusader. I wonder if you can sing a song of St. Louis IX or St. Ferdinand III (San Fernando)
An incredible expedition, especially knowing that just one century ago the country was still pagan
“Hasn’t he already done this one?”
Nevermind, it’s still a banger…
Do you have a song about the final battle of the sueben against the romans, what spelled there doom ultimately?
Ek elska heyra þik ok rödd þín!!!
Haz una versión Remake de Jorsalanam en latín o una de The Last Varangians, ya sea en nórdico medieval o en latín, pues los varegos eran cristianos.
Who is a descendant of Viking's?
