"Now I have come home After a journey on the deep seas. The wave was so high, The saltiness ate everything up. I drowned in a black hole, I pulled out the hand of death. So high, it was so high, And the moon lighted a path, yes the moon high in the sky, And the moon lighted a path, yes the moon lighted a path. So high, so high, wave of the sins, wave of the sins."
Nú er ég kominn heim eftir ferðalag um höfin djúp. Aldan var svo há, seltan át upp allt. Ég drukknaði í svartholi, í dauðans hönd ég tók. Svo há, hún var svo há, en tunglið lýsti leið, já tunglið há, en tunglið lýsti leið, já tunglið lýsti leið. Svo há, svo há, alda syndanna, alda syndanna.
+RetroDeath By definition, you cannot add to perfection as it is already 'perfect' by your own description. Perfection is impossible though, in this context.
Kill3rCat This is the dumbest discussion I have ever had on a metal music video but whatever, I'll humour you. No you are wrong, something can be perfect, and then when new discoveries or more progress has been made that perfect idea can be worked upon based off new information not available prior to the idea or invention. I'll even gave you too stupid examples. You can stand on top of a mountain, watch an incredible view and think to yourself, this moment is perfect, it just can't get any better, until a meteor shower starts bringing you to tears, making it even better. Or how about even more stupid, fire, when fire was invented it was absolutely perfect, you can't enhance fire, but then we learned how to harness it throughout the years, making it even more perfect as we learned about a dozen other ways to use it for besides food and warmth. Something can be perfect, and that perfection can still be moved forward when new events are brought up or new discoveries are made to improve upon the initial view. Now I am not going to have 10 000 back and forward comments over this, I have nothing else to add, take it as you will.
Absolutely excellent music and visual accompaniment. The key word is ... Atmosphere .... and it is like a tide, a wave in the sea, a tsunami, it washes you away and won't let go, great!
when I heard it for the first time, the first thing which came to my mind was - omg the atmosphere is like I'd be listening to the old Sentenced stuff...and then I saw Vesa Ranta. what a great job Harri Haataja, the beauty of Iceland is so overwhelming here
FINALLY a new video to end 2015 with! we need more videos shot in ICELAND like this!! most beautiful landscapes along with the most sensual, moving music from SOLSTAFIR

Highly symbolic video... love Solstafir... one white flag against two black flags.... yet against the white sky even the white flag appears black... hail the powers of the universe.... the light reigns supreme!
During my first (not last! I hope) trip to Iceland this song/band was my favorite. It gave me inner Icelandic vibe, when I traveled across island. Love it!
When I first saw this, I just can't believe my eyes. That's my favorite song from 'Ótta', with another perfect video of Sólstafir, as usual... Love defines.
O que eu acho incrível nos clipes dessa banda é que eles não precisam investir nem 1 centavo em cenários. Também, né... a paisagem daquele pais é o melhor cenário que existe!
@@lucasrosasantos5146 São culturas completamente diferentes, meu caro. Imagine só se a televisão brasileira começasse a mostrar música que é famosa em tudo quanto é país… Teríamos que ouvir música da India, dos Emirados Arabes, da Tailandia, da Papua Nova Guiné, etc. E tenho absoluta certeza que você não gostaria nem da metade. A vida é assim, e FELIZMENTE temos a internet para poder conhecer toda e qualquer expressão cultural e artística em tão apenas segundos :) De qualquer maneira, Sólstafir é uma banda muito foda.
@@LeonardoKDS A questão não é cultura, é conteúdo. As músicas que são enfiadas goela abaixo para a população no Brasil não apresentam qualquer conteúdo, não acrescentam nada na vida das pessoas. Nenhuma história, nenhum aprendizado cultural, ou é sobre a mulher mexer a bunda, ou sobre o homem que sofre com a dor de corno. A pobreza está nas letras, mas também nos ritmos, e o que pior, os ditos artistas não tem capacidade qualquer de criar as letras e melodias das músicas. Geralmente lhes é entregue pelo empresário ou por um autor para que interpretem. Isso ocorre muito com artistas de sertanejo e funk.
Con todo lo que está pasando en estos momentos... este video me explotó en el cerebro. Ni idea de la letra. Pero me recuerda lo valiente que somos al reconocernos, tomar el camino de la introspección... Porque cuando me veo en tus ojos sé que he llegado a casa.
i'm not even in the right territory music wise, I listen to COMPLETELY different genres, but this. this I can appreciate. although I dont understand the words, my hair rises at the magnificent chemistry of just everything in this video.
It kind of reminds me of the separation I am going through with my wife. Some nights I come home from work and hang out outside for a bit before going through the doors. I feel you buddy with the flag, I feel you.
What a beautiful song this is! I listen to this when im happy and also when im sad or angry and it seems to be a perfect fit for every mood. The ending with the violins is absolutely gorgeous🤩
on time to time i am playing this song and i realise how wonderfull this music is, and how kindly it infuencess to people respect for this band, this guys are truly artist at their work keep up with it we adore this !!!
this video has a much better story and depicts it better too then most of the hollywood crap we are served nowadays. And a beautiful song as well. Thank you Solstafir (damn, I can't even spell this name correctly with my keyboard, I guess I need to buy myself an icelandic keyboard!) Somebody called them "national geographic metal": that's correct imho...
A perfect break from all the Thrash, Death and Black Metal I have been listening to. This is fucking gorgeous
Only Death Is Real I'm in the same possition this guy and nahko just doing amazing job...
So Am I. Solstafir is true food for the soul after listening extreme metal genres.
To me, this is a journey away from a depressed state, and the struggles towards the light from the darkness.
"Now I have come home
After a journey on the deep seas.
The wave was so high,
The saltiness ate everything up.
I drowned in a black hole,
I pulled out the hand of death.
So high, it was so high,
And the moon lighted a path, yes the moon high in the sky,
And the moon lighted a path, yes the moon lighted a path.
So high, so high, wave of the sins, wave of the sins."
its so cool that some of te words of each language sound a bit simular and knowing the lyrics now give more chills then the video does on its own lol
Da real MVP, thanks for translation.!
so high so high all the sins .....alda syndanna = all the sins
Nú er ég kominn heim
eftir ferðalag um höfin djúp.
Aldan var svo há,
seltan át upp allt.
Ég drukknaði í svartholi,
í dauðans hönd ég tók.
Svo há, hún var svo há,
en tunglið lýsti leið, já tunglið há,
en tunglið lýsti leið, já tunglið lýsti leið.
Svo há, svo há, alda syndanna, alda syndanna.
ANTAR the wave of the sins=alda syndanna
Their music is already so perfect but the artistic value of their videos really add to that perfection still.
+RetroDeath Agreed! They have the most beautiful music videos I've ever seen.
+RetroDeath By definition, you cannot add to perfection as it is already 'perfect' by your own description. Perfection is impossible though, in this context.
Kill3rCat
You can always improve upon perfection, perfection is just the current limit of understanding, boundaries can always be pushed.
RetroDeath Perfection is *not* the current limit of understanding. The very definition of 'perfect' is that it *cannot get any better*.

Excellent music and photography! I'm Brazilian and we love the lyric and music arrangements. Deep and melancholy!!!
It doesn't matter how many times I hear this song, or see this clip, it brings about a kind of mournful peace.... One that I very much relate to.
This is absolutely beautiful. I think I teared up a bit.
if you haven't already...fjara...
its bcuz of that thorn in your eye..
Wow. Iceland and Solstafir were MADE for each other. These videos are some of the most complimenting to music I have ever seen.
No matter what year I am in, this keeps being utterly beautiful.
Now there is nothing more perfect than this song. Love the pure melancholy.
Thank you..
I was makeinf a tour through iceland....and this was the perfect music to go with while going through those marvelous landscapes
I'm 54 and Solstafir gave me the first gig ever where I had tears in my eyes ! Thank you !!!
i cant describe how much beautiful this creation is , so artistic and gorgeous
Merci d'exister, c'est ce dont mon âme a besoin pour se guérir
takk fyrir meistaraverk.. þakka þér fyrir öll lög, plötur og textann.. reyndar, takk fyrir að sönn list.
beautifully filmed, amazing Solstafir song, gives me the goosebumps everytime I watch it
Simply beautiful. Pure art.
It makes me cry right now. Just strikes a chord in me.
Me too…
@@JUANKELS 👍
There's something soul touching about a vulcanic rock shore with flags being flown filmed with almost no colour.
This is absolutely beautiful. The cinematography is perfect. I want blockbuster movies to be filmed like this. I want the art to be acknowledged.
Ikr, this is just so beautiful.
@@leonardovillegas1119 I want Hollywood to jog on so that we can focus on more thoughtful art.
Absolutely excellent music and visual accompaniment. The key word is ... Atmosphere .... and it is like a tide, a wave in the sea, a tsunami, it washes you away and won't let go, great!
Absolutely beautiful - Solstafir is my new favourite band
I just discovered this masterpiece with other songs. It's so beautiful, It hurts. Your viking sorrow reached Guatemala. 🖤
the best band i had the chance to experience live so far....
The most beautiful video I've ever seen. I love B&W style but this is a new level of perfection.
Beautiful...Masterpiece...
Сколько любви к Родине! Молодцы! Ребята талантливы, однозначно;
La música de Sólstafir están perfecta que es difícil explicar su hermoso mensaje y los videos son perfectos.
when I heard it for the first time, the first thing which came to my mind was - omg the atmosphere is like I'd be listening to the old Sentenced stuff...and then I saw Vesa Ranta. what a great job Harri Haataja, the beauty of Iceland is so overwhelming here
Un descanso de baterías y guitarras de todo el álbum "Ótta" para escuchar solo piano y voz es realmente hermoso.
Lo es...

+William Stoetzer *Oh, the fucking irony!*

Another Syrian here also ;)
Nafoor Aljundi I agree... Icelandic music is the best!
I have no words....beauty in pure form...

@@TA-zy7lg Now I have come home
After a journey on the deep seas.
The wave was so high,
The saltiness ate everything up.
I drowned in a black hole,
I pulled out the hand of death.
So high, it was so high,
And the moon lighted a path, yes the moon high in the sky,
And the moon lighted a path, yes the moon lighted a path.
So high, so high, wave of the sins, wave of the sins.
Thank you very much!
this video is a caress to the darkest side of my heart
The videography, song and lyrics are so beautiful in this 🖤🖤🖤
Sería bueno que las futuras canciones de Sólstafir tengan la misma influencia. Una excelente obra de arte.
Highly symbolic video... love Solstafir... one white flag against two black flags.... yet against the white sky even the white flag appears black... hail the powers of the universe.... the light reigns supreme!
This song is perfection

Such a great song.
going to their concert today ❤can't wait
Grunge Potato where?
Iceland, the best place on earth. I want to go back and stay there FOREVER!
Nothing compares with this. Strongly beautiful with stirring simple truth.
Fantastic Video Fantastic Band Fantastic Land :-)
Simplesmente perfeito,música e vídeo.
This is magnificent! Thank you Solstafir for this heavenly(!) experience!
Perfect,amazing,beautiful,good 😢😢😂😂😭😭😭🥺🥺🥰🥰😍😍. Thank you..

Потрясающее открытие для меня эта группа! Совершенно случайно натолкнулся.
Но теперь даже буду планировать поездку в Исландию, с рюкзаком объективов.
Да можно даже и так,без рюкзака))
What a touchful and meaningfull piece of Art...
Artistas que precisam ser conhecidos por quem gosta de boa música! ❤
No Brasil, a mídia não dá espaço para artistas de qualidade. Brasileiro que gosta de boa música só conhece assim, garimpando a Internet.
Com certeza!
O que eu acho incrível nos clipes dessa banda é que eles não precisam investir nem 1 centavo em cenários. Também, né... a paisagem daquele pais é o melhor cenário que existe!

Tolles Video, wundervolle Musik und herrliche tiefisinnige Symbolik! Viele Grüße an unsere nordischen Freunde aus dem verkackten Deutschland :))))
This is awesome. The language makes everything better. It wouldn't sound the same in english. A language like Icelandic should be preserved.
Underrated comment
they always have the best music videos
Damn...beautiful song
Con todo lo que está pasando en estos momentos... este video me explotó en el cerebro.
Ni idea de la letra. Pero me recuerda lo valiente que somos al reconocernos, tomar el camino de la introspección... Porque cuando me veo en tus ojos sé que he llegado a casa.
Pure artistic perfection from music to video clip!!! Great!
Every time I listen to it I am moved.
i'm not even in the right territory music wise, I listen to COMPLETELY different genres, but this. this I can appreciate. although I dont understand the words, my hair rises at the magnificent chemistry of just everything in this video.

It is very vivid and dramatic. The actor was literally born for a shooting like that. Saw em in Saint Vitus Bar 2 years ago. Great!
Just amazing. Thanks!
Great music, and great video. Glad to see Vesa Ranta participating in staff like this, he truly is a very good photographer and film-director
Just beautiful!
Tears have shed here.
This song has a soul
on time to time i am playing this song and i realise how wonderfull this music is, and how kindly it infuencess to people
respect for this band, this guys are truly artist at their work

Music, voice, video = beautiful experience

A work of art!
Solstafir Videos are so beautiful.
Prostě nádherná hudba! Really wonderfully music!
Truly My favorite band... perfect every time...
So many beautiful paintings in there
This song makes me feel nothing and everything at the same time.
This simply a beautiful video.
Espectacularmente hermoso video. Un tema increíble. Gracias
Maravillosa,Melancolica,Música increible!!!
Amazing footage, I am very impressed.
Emo-core at his best! Hail Solstafir
Thank you for exist.
this music does not deserve 21 dislike
This song makes me fly..
..and cry.
And tears went dry
when i have flying by.
...and it makes me sink
utterly beautifull
this video has a much better story and depicts it better too then most of the hollywood crap we are served nowadays.
And a beautiful song as well. Thank you Solstafir (damn, I can't even spell this name correctly with my keyboard, I guess I need to buy myself an icelandic keyboard!)
Somebody called them "national geographic metal": that's correct imho...
200%
This band makes me want to learn Islandic.
I know, right?
Me as well.
literally
instead you went with the 12 cal.
After you've learnt 'Islandic', maybe you could give Icelandic a go. ;)
