Great literature has always been a source of inspiration for heavy metal bands.

Valhalleluja is Nanowar's personal take on modern days Norse Mythology, where alongside Odin, Thor and Loki also the greatest Swedish heroes of our age - Beddinge, Kivik and Knopparp - are sitting in Valhalla.

I find it simply heretical that IKEA hasn't used this as an advertisement yet

Seriously!

Hopefully we shouldn't have to wait more than another few months, this is clearly a Christmas ad!
That's the true blasphemy here
“So what religion are you?”
“Furniture”

An entire religion centered around Angus McFife. Honestly I'm surprised it took this long.
Don't be blasphemous, we worship the Hoots, not Angus
@@mosselliadelt Hoots and Angus are two halves of a glorious whole. If you don't worship both, it's like a Christian worshipping Jesus, but not the Father or the Spirit.
@@SonOfTheNorthe But theirs literally denominations that have done that.
Of course most of them were brutally killed by the church, but yeah.
@@SonOfTheNorthe In the Name of God the Allfather, God the Prince, and God the Holy Hoots.
The prince of Fife has ascended from the volcano of Schiehallion to become Odin, God of the IKEA.
I'm an IKEA worker. And seeing this... I just... I think my jaw is in the Southern hemisphere, and my sides are speeding up past Mars. Because this is great. I can't play this in the store, but I'm sharing it to every colleague I can!
I want to see their reaction 🤣

Btw, listen to their "Ironmonger" 😁
@@Lightsephiroth I showed it to a few guys today, it was similar to mine. One guy almost cut himself while staring at the phone too.
@@malcho1234 Safety first!
Doing the same in our store haha needs to be the new theme of IKEA
"That's not Odin!"
"Oh yeah? Who is he then?"
"He is the prince of the Land of Fife, noble and true with a heart of steel!"
*sings along* ... And it's stuck in my head for the 1992nd time :)
@L Weston - Why isn't Sabaton and Powerwolf here, too??
Where's Joakim??
@@GoodAvatar At least they had Powerwolf inside. Angus McFife singing in Powerwolf style
@@ChristophS I'm *NOT* complaining!! This is some grade-A ham and cheese these people are making.
@@ChristophS *sigh* I come from South Dakota. Let's try this again.......
These people make wonderfully cheesy songs that nearly *PERFECTLY* replicate the honest-European-Metal types....
And unlike America, they have a sense of humor, so they don't *MIND* when you make fun of them.
italian band, singing about a swedish company, whilst worshipping nordic gods in hebrew, and with a scottish odin, this is globalism my friends
Actually, Thomas is from Switzerland, If am I right :)
Globalism is the rape of tradition. This is fun.
@@josefstycha3725 But he plays a Scottish character (which is also obvious from his stage name).
So it’s a Swiss guy from an Italian band playing a Scottish version of a Nordic God singing about Swedish furniture with Hebrew lyrics themed to a Roman holiday with a Turkish patron Saint (Saint Nicholas) adapted to a primarily American culture. Cool.
@@Tennishangman \m/
This is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen
I love it
Indeed :)
This is from word to word the comment I was going to post. I love it.
I've been a fan of NanowaR for 15 years now: looking back at their discography and the lyrics of their songs, this is the most serious thing they have done, believe me.
The best part is that they just *embrace* how stupid it is and crank it up to 11.
Pray for the confort !
As a swede I can confirm that this is what swedish Christmas is like

This is the best Ikea commercial I have ever seen.
It absolutely is
Ascendent Odin McFife:
- appears in the sky
- sings about change of occupation from war to carpentry
- praises IKEA
- leaves without elaborating further
Underrated comment
A God doesn't have to explain himself 😅
"leaves without elaborationg further"
*sighs in gloryhammer...
Also, "ascended".
@@2st486 true that
When Angus is inevitably ressurected in the next Gloryhammer album, I fully expect him to be introduced with the title of MASTER OF IKEA
Or at least referenced as such
It will be a different Angus Mcfife as Zargothrax's clone was sent back in time to a period before the second and third albums, Angus the 13th (the one who died in album 3) was the descendant of the Angus in the first album.
@@arcanejack I've yet to listen to all of Gloryhammers stuff but the lore sounds amazing.
I think that this song is actually canon so he will be resurrect/shown as the master of IKEA. I mean the hootsman as well died and was alive in an alternate universe.
napalm: Hey thomas, would you be interested in doing a collab with nanowar of steel.
Thomas: I am not sure, christmas is on it's way
napalm: you get to wear your angus mcfife cos-
thomas: *hold my gloryhammer*
No, it's "Give me my hammer"
I like that it's not even Thomas, he's just Angus McFife now.
Thomas is a weird way to spell Angus Mcfife
@@blazikenking I'm pretty sure that, just like Thor, he just puts his hand out and the hammer appears.
HOOTSMAN! GET MY HAMMER
I love that Odin is just Angus McFife with an eyepatch.
and a Santa hat
He's not breaking character, even to play another character. Respect. lol
@Leviathan Cross Studios The patent isn't pending. Zargothrax got it through when he took over Dundee and no one ever found the paperwork.
I love that he winks at the end of explaining how he’s changed as a Deity.
And he has his hammer, as he should.
I'm from Nicaragua and I also don't know where I am.
neither we :D
TH-cam: Hey dude you wanna hear Angus McFife as Odin singing about IKEA?
Me: As a matter of fact I would, thank you.
My thoughts exactly :D
Not just Odin, but Jewish Odin!
i'm not religious but its kind of sad to see odin becoming that from his former glory
@@alphayun7401 pretty sure Odin would get shitfaced and scream right along with the rest of us. Cause he's Odin. A warrior god who loves his ale and a good laugh. This is typical nord humor and it totally rocks!

@@Sepilein1 Powerwolf concerts are the church we all have and need.

And I thought I had seen it at all after black metal blues.
Norwegian Reggaeton and now Metal Gospel. Innovators still exist. They come from Italy and make absolutely no sense. And it's fine that way.
When you only have 6 minutes to commit blasphemy against as many religions as you can think of.
What a way to do it though
Crossed the line for me, though. There's got to be a limit to what you can make jokes about. I mean.. Knisa grey better than Sasha Grey?!?
As a Satanist, I like it :)
As a devout Catholic, I believe Peter himself would be moved by the beauty of this song.
@@magicrat74 and the simple fact that you knew both sides of that "better than" proves their point

@@axelmorice3827 I think they just picked two countries that we (Italian) don't know quite well, weren't discovered by Vikings and could fit the lyrics :) I don't think they are disrespecting your country, they just picked the most appropriate ones :D
@@beatriceceruti420 You are absolutely right 😉👍
@@axelmorice3827 Beatrice the Italian is right, is not mockery toward Nicaragua, is just a reference to the fact Vikings just landed on northern lands like Greenland or Newfoundland (Isla de Terranova), and places like arabian lands or Central America were unknown for them, is just that, brother :)
Pd: Te respondo en inglés porque así la gente con curiosidad lee y entiende también jeje.
@@Anticrisis_Arts The Vikings knew "Arabian" (actually Muslim; Azerbaijan barely has any Arabs, if at all) lands, there is good evidence of trade. It is just a joke about how "no one" knows were those countries are, no historical elements to it.

And I sing a prayer to my Lord
Away from hope and systembolaget

"We want you to hold a hammer and play gentlegod Odin the reformed carpenter of Ikea in a metal gospel viking Christmas song with a few political undertones"
"You had me at hammer"
This is probably the least political Christmas song out there lmao
Yeah I don't see any politics either
what were the undertones? all i sore was horse meatballs.
@@EpicRenegade777 originally, I thought that the part about people not including some places in their prayers because they don't even know where they are was a jab at the ignorance culture cultivated by organized religion. Now I think it was probably meant to be just a joke. Also, I think that the "for the plunder and the rape" is a clear callout to how pop culture idolizes vikings with metal bands and whatnot as icons of warriors, while they were murderous pillagers who attacked peaceful settlements and temples.

These guys are the Weird Al Yankovic of power metal.
Well, as a power metal fan myself I can only agree that Nanowar are the heroes we deserve because they mostly mock the overly serious tone that lots of European bands have.
Basically the US have Steel Panther, which parody the hair/glam metal style and we have Nanowar in Europe. Both bands work where they are needed so they can humble down the most famous sub genres respectively in both places

@@metalstorm7506 You should check out Powerwolf. It's basically powermetal with Roman Catholic undertones and lyrics about shagging nuns, crusades and werewolves. If there's a band that doesn't take themselves seriously, it's the one that made a song called Resurrection by Erection.

People of Culture: That's a weird way to spell Angus McFife
Everyone: Why does Gellax speak with such insolence? Why does he think he's the judge of "people of culture"? Maybe he doesn't realize they are from different countries. But, maybe we give Gellax too much of the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he's just a derpy tool. Yup. Why does he think he can talk down to people? Know one knows. Sitting in his position, no one would dare to make such a claim. It sounds like it's hard to talk down to people when you are so far below them.
Turns out this guy has a weird and demented view of "people of culture". Just because HE thinks that "foreigners" spelled their own word wrong. What a dumb shit.
+Adam Eves I bet you're a lot of fun at parties. Sheesh! Grow a sense of humor.
@@MDMetal Extremely fun! Why? Sense of humor for what? I have a sense of humor, but why would one be needed here? There was no joke. I was simply correcting that guy's mistake. He's calling people uncultured when it's actually HE who is without exposure to other cultures. Guess what? The band isn't American. Also, it's a fictional character. They chose the spelling, therefor it is 100% correct. Gellax is wrong. Period. Now where was that sense of humor needed again? **Waits for the "it was a joke" excuse, even though it clearly wasn't**
If you can stay on topic, please elaborate on what you meant and why you said it. As it stands, you make zero sense.
@gordonfrohman34 So you also have zero standards? Why are you trying to backup the person who is wrong? All you idiots can just say whatever you want without the consequences of any accountability? Sounds about right. Why do you people try to label the person who is trying to fix you people as the "bad guy"? I'm literally the only one here with a brain, trying to help you people, and you have the nerve to snap at me like that? Who do you think you are? Insolent twit. Maybe when you grow up you'll obtain some standards. For now, you're useless and helpless. Pointless to listen to anything you have to say. Fuckin christ with you people. Pay attention and listen. No reason to let dumb people coast by with inane comments. There needs to be accountability. We need standards. Maybe if bullying was brought back these kids wouldn't be opening their mouths so freely. Whatever needs to be done to keep dummies like you quiet. You listen. You don't speak.
I guess someone else already found the following connections in this sea of comments, but, just in case I wanted to point out that I love that they chose to put banners at the back of the "church" with a big runic "O" (Othala) for Odin with the Ikea logo written in our alphabet but stylized with the characters drawn as if chisseled into stone or wood like real runes. You can also briefly see a second big rune at the bottom of the banners and I would swear that it's an "E", which looks like a capital M, and I wasn't sure what it represented until I remember that this rune is "Ehwaz" and that means "horse". That's BLEW MY MIND 🤯because it may well be the real idea behind the whole song! Why? Because on top of being fun, Odin was always riding Sleipnir, his eight-legged horse, SPECIALLY on the night hunt for the Giants on the night of Christmas Eve (like Santa) and, best of all, SLEIPNIR is also the title of one of the songs THE F*****G ORIGINAL MANOWAR whose name they've parodied! Once you realize that, we can go even further and think of the horse meatballs symbolically as the "Bread and Wine" of Christians too! 😂😂😂
Has anyone sent this to Alestorm? They claimed that if you can find a music video sillier than "Magnetic North", they'll send you a year's supply of ham.
Pretty much all off nanowar songs are sillier but i do not think It they counts as they are a parody band to begin with
"Year's supply of ham" wtf, I'll envy whoever wins that.
@@deviousmile669 Alestorm itself walks a thin line between regular and parody band, though.
@@CidGuerreiro1234 exactly theirs also good old gloryhammer as well which takes the sillyness to the extreme (lead singer from alestorm is glory hammers keyboard player)
@@treemover7259 yeahh but they aren't a parody band. Their story that spans 3 epic albums is actually very good
When you are in doubt about "are my ideas worth sharing?", remember that these guys wrote a metal song about IKEA featiring Odin as The God of IKEA :)
"GUITAR TECH OF AMON AMARTH"
Wait, he killed the frost giants AND engineered Amon Amarth's sound? Odin really is all-powerful.
Indeed !
By the power of IKEA!
It all makes sense now.
Don't forget Hammerfall
I thought they meant the preacher was the guitar tech of Amon Amarth. They point to him when they sing that.
@@224224josh don't worry, no one forgets hammerfall on my watch

If I were a manager at IKEA, this would make it into the ambient music playlist like five times
Five times per minute you mean
you have to add Ikea by johnathon coulton too.

I expect to hear it in IKEA during Christmas season:)
@@vlaim3087 I bet They have. I would
@@IanWagner94 Yep, here too
_and it's December 🎉_
So Odin McFive is the almighty God of Ikea?
Explains a lot.
At time I thought Alestorm was pretty insane band with their lyrics. Then came Gloryhammer... but this song beats them all
Well, it does have a bit of Gloryhammer in it. Not that the guys from Nanowar of Steel need it to get wacky (and awesome) though.
Soo... you haven't discovered the Grailknights yet?
Oh I have (thanks to Sabaton)
It is probably no surprise then, to hear that the vocalist for Alestorm is the keyboardist for Gloryhammer (where he plays Zargothorax). I suspect he's the one organizing it all.
@@Leyrann He's the creator of both bands, and lyricist of Alestorm ; I think he's participating in Gloryhammer's lyrics, too (at least he's credited for their second album). And his personal project are pretty fun too, if not metal. Damn I love this guy.
Loving the accurate details: cannot be a proper Christmas without Trading places (una poltrona per due) playing on Italian tv! Valhalleluja 🙏🏻
Comunque "una poltrona per due" sullo sfondo in tv è il vero tocco di classe
Un classico! 😂😂😂
Che Natale sarebbe senza "una poltrona per due"..
Me: How many languages gonna put in this song?
Nanowar of Steel: Yes

@@AmsBloom Their sales pitch must be very epic....that IKEA allowed this awesomeness.
these guys are innovators, a new christmas carol is born
it's like watching a Monty Python episode, you guys are great
the most brilliant IKEA add i have ever seen
You know what I like about Angus McFife?? The dude is taking his heavy metal career seriously.
...and nothing else.
@@joshuabecker5154 You're not being nice. Frankly, these heavy metal twerps inspire me. :)
Absolutely glorious. Best Christmas song of 2019 hands down.
I know what I'm gonna hear when my family is going to church
You should listen to Christopher Bowes's new song
Try "of all times".
And here we are two years later. A curious fact is that I did not remember the name of this epic piece of art (my fault, the Master in Business has stolen my brain), and I just wrote "Ikea Rock Song", and that's it!

I mean Gloryhammer and Alestorm are awesome and just pure fun, but this is on another level man. Praise Odin the Lord of Ikea, Valhallelja. Seing Angus with an eyepatch and a christmas hat was pretty good. It's been a long time, I've laughed this much over a song.
We're glad you liked this one! Have a look at our other stuff, you won't be disappointed
The God of furniture has spoken.
So watch the other songs :D
Guys, it's time to storm the IKEA social pages... They HAVE to invite Nanowar to play a gig in their store and it HAS to be recorded into a DVD
I love the Odin=Santa Claus myth reference. These guys are absolutely brilliant.
The "Shema Yggdrasil"-Line doesn't get enough love. Pure genius.
@Darth Maul It's a play on words from Shema Jisrael or "Listen Israel", a (mostly) Jewish religious term, a prayer. Basically a speech that's sort of a contract between God and Israel.
the music playing in the background is from a film or something? i know it from somewhere..
@@jackelinerose6225 Castlevania, probably.
Yggdrasil is the “World Tree” in Norse myth
Yes, great play on words!
@@philipmarr7325 Where else do you think all the wood for Ikea comes from?
I don't think I've ever gotten whiplash from a song before.
This is a batshit insane rollercoaster ride with more sudden and random twists and turns than a Shyamalan movie, and it is amazing
The addition of "Trading Places - Una poltrona per due" movie in the background is perfection... only Italians will understand
Oh yes. There is no Christmas without Una poltrona per due. :D It's a law.

GET OUT.
I hope that the protagonist of the game is the founder of Ikea.
It's amazing how they don't take themselves seriously but sing and play so amazingly. Big up for Angus Macfife verse, so majestic !
Not the crossover we asked for, but the crossover we deserved...
Also the one we needed
This one for the long cold winter, and Norwegian Reggaeton for the summer. And the whole year is covered
We dont deserved at all but we got it
Maybe this is in the far future of Angus McFife where he is immortal and tired of war. Far Far away after he defeated the evil wizard zargothrax but was cursed from him to be alone and always alive.
I visited an IKEA near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 2 weeks ago, I was a little disappointed that this song wasn't playing in a continuous loop on their sound system.
