Its the full moon as of right now, I live in a forest. I don't think any camera will ever capture how beautiful a moonlit forest is. I heard this song and I felt as if I had to go out and dance in the moonlit forest, thank you for this masterpiece
im a piano student of 20 years and guitar of 10 years - the sound of this instrument is like nothing ive ever heard other than in movies! yet you play it like it was a companion in your mothers womb. please continue making videos, people like you are the reason people like me get inspiration and motivation to keep playing
Well metal helps me release my aggression and negativity and makes me feel strong, and calm music helps with my anxiety so I think people should just listen to and make the music that they want
@@chocolatepudding1241 Buddhists believed in harnessing the power of positive and negative both light and dark you can't have one without the other it'd only make sense for an artist to want to release both feelings as more artists should its good for the soul.
imagine taking a morning walk on the other side of that river and suddenly you hear this coming from the other side of the misty lake, youd think you were about to get spirited away lmao
then as a Norwegian, i should add, we would kick Your ass if you tried, like in almost everything else. hehe all Scandinavia agree this is positive, and if they don't they are not on Our side, they are fools. This is reality.
@@maestromarket Actually, that’s not entirely true. It’s a misconception that Norway was poor before they found oil. In 1950, Norway was right below average amongst the 16 richest OECD countries. Hard to know how Norway would be today without the oil, but the odds weren’t low before Norway had oil. Also, it’s pretty cool for Norwegians that they can claim the origin of Vikings, just as a historical bonus.😄
please save your beautiful indigenous nordic culture! good vibes from a indigenous American person! don't let them destroy your heritage and race as they did with us!
I revisit this video many times through out my days of living and I highly enjoy the peaceful state it puts me in. Its very tranquil but powerful. Also makes me want to trail across Middle Earth.
@@landlord3863 "Gammelkäring" is in fact a traditional Norwegian folk song and the instrument played in the video is a Swedish instrument. The artist is Danish though.
Its not norwegian. Its a bastard between danish, norwegian and swedish. Cudos for her learning that. It was what scandinave spoke before 1845. Then came the french and british empires. Bokkmål, skånsk and dansk can attest to that.
Denmark is an unironically magical place. Like imagine just going out and seeing this happening by a lake. You'd literally be like "whaaaaaaat the fuckkkkkkkkkk."
I drifted off to sleep to this last night...so wonderful to fall asleep to. A whole hour of it would be amazing! Yes please make a folk record of this nyckelharpa music, I would snatch it up right away. Beautiful. 💖👍
wooooooooooooooooow how can so much beauty be contained in a video less than 2 minutes long? the haunting music and the haunting forest lake! amazing, my lady you are an ethereal dream.
Despise the fact that Im black from Congo, I identify myself a lot with the nordic culture, even more because I have lived in Sweden for a while. Keep our folk traditions alive
her voice is wonderful and the sound of that lovely instrument , this video is very atmospheric , the scenery and the music go flow together in charming harmony .
This is so beautiful! I cannot stop listening to it. Somehow it almost brings back a sense of nostalgia. If it isn't too much to ask, a longer version of this would be amazing!
This makes me feel like a maid somewhere in Europe with this week's laundry in a weave basket on one hip, walking on cobblestones to get to a river to wash my clothes early in the morning before the merchants and schoolchildren fill the streets, a light breeze and mist on the ground
I can't tell you how beautifully and precisely you've captured the emotions that emanate from this song!!! My sentiments exactly! I'd love to be such a maid!!
I know right. Sweden are being run by absolute terrorists that want to destroy not only sweden but the entire western civilization. They want to eradicate our nations znd our history and replace them with their global mishmash where everyone is supposedly floating on happy rainbows. A total utopia and a nightmare to think about for any sane person.
@@cgh634 then you should hurry up. Give it a few more years and all our traditions and culture is wiped out because of the fear to step on someone else's toes. I have a colleague, the presscool her children go to, have canceled birthdays (singing and maybe a balloon, nothing extreme) BECAUSE some cultures doesn't do the birthday stuff. Today's truth.
My ancestors' trail is lost some time after their immigration to America, so I don't know my heritage, but when I hear these sounds, it feels like a second home.

Only thing wrong with this is it is too short.
J Ashton AGREEEEED
Ikr!
I don't think they had too much time on their hands in between pillaging villages :P
you could say that, or you could say it ended perfectly. max and excellent use of the time. Nordic effiency. she did well, skål from norway
That's what she said.
you shold record an album only with folk music, it is so perfect
I am thinking of writing an acoustic dark folk record as my next release
Myrkur Øksemorder perfect!!! ❤
That would be great, I know I speak for most of us when I say that we would love an album like that!
Awesome as always! Love you!
Your music is so fucking amazing. You should record an album.
Greetings from Mexico!!
Oh my, please do. Would be an instant purchase for me at least :D
The world needs so much more music like this. Please don't stop creating.
Älskar mitt Skandinavien.
this song has been stuck in my head for three years and only now did i just find it again.
Time and time again, the Norse prove themselves to be the most fair and the most fearsome. Skald!
It'll make a grown man cry
That's some real shit right there
T_T
I am living proof. Shit just makes the soul fly holy shit :')
Make a sane man crazy

her folk songs remind me of the witcher
Huza George It reminded me of assassin's creed at first until I heard her singing; then I started thinking of witcher.
Reminds me of the the city of falkreath in skyrim
Huza George The Witcher soundtrack is so good, especially the first game's
because its the only time you heard folk music
It goes to show how much work they actually put into Witcher. True Poles, those CD Projekt Red folks.
We need one hour of nyckelharpa's atmospheric playing!
Make a nordic folk album pls!
search for Irmelin
Search on any music source- Myrkur. That is the name of her band. Saw here in York. AMAZING 🤤
Its the full moon as of right now, I live in a forest. I don't think any camera will ever capture how beautiful a moonlit forest is. I heard this song and I felt as if I had to go out and dance in the moonlit forest, thank you for this masterpiece
Beautiful song, beautiful music, beautiful woman. With love from Russia.
Imagine walking in the woods and suddenly you hear this from distance? I'd feel blessed lol
listen, strange women singing in ponds is no basis for a system of government...

That's one of the most poetic things I've ever seen.👍
who needs to study for finals when you can listen to Nordic Folk music
6 months ago I would never had said this, but this genre is much better for you than metal.
Agreed
Xeph Xen That's definitely a thing.
This genre is metal a f xD Many nordic metal bands have borrowed elements from the roots of folk music :)

this is the most beautiful thing ever, i dont even know what to see wow.... it feels like an unreal world i'd like to go to
This song, style and sound speaks to me.
I love the similarity with arabic folk music, the drone is everything! You can also hear the roots of Irish music in this one piece so much
The roots of Americana Folk too!
Scottish more than Irish...
Muhteşem..müzik enstrümanlar Muhteşem ses ve yorumun ahengi...❤❤Myrkur🎉 Türkiyeden sevgiler..#Savaşahayır
She has the voice of a thousand Angels 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Or just one angel
That is such an interesting sound. I swear this women has the magic in her soul.
That's the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Both instrument and voice. 💞💕
If I could swim in that lake from time to time listening to your music I might go swimming more often
We Swedes don't mind our neighbours playing our instrument when it's this beutiful
We hardly have a monopoly on the nyckelharpa. It belongs to the Danes as much as it belongs to us.
Well if we wanna be technical, most Germanic peoples came from Denmark, and southern parts of Scandinavia. So our cultures are all related
then as a Norwegian, i should add, we would kick Your ass if you tried, like in almost everything else. hehe
all Scandinavia agree this is positive, and if they don't they are not on Our side, they are fools. This is reality.
@@Sorlendingen82 the only thing you kick ass at is finding oil. without it you would be a third world country

Jag är så glad att jag fann denna musikvideo, får mig att tänka på min gammelmormor och gammelmorfar 🥲
This makes me even more proud of my European roots than I already am such beautiful music
"European" roots? Are you Scandinavian? Or are you of some other "European" ancestry and somehow think my ancestry belongs to you?
This sounds like a song in fairys language if they existed !! 👍🎉

She gives me goosebumps..
I love the sound of the nyckelharpa.
takes me to another place when you sing and play
I love myrkur. I love my ancient. Love from aehentina... My sister..

My great grandfather was from Norway. I'd like to reconnect with my Norse heritage. This is beautiful.

Heritage is gone, brown people live there now
Denmark is an unironically magical place. Like imagine just going out and seeing this happening by a lake. You'd literally be like "whaaaaaaat the fuckkkkkkkkkk."
Very beautiful place and performance. Congratulations..
I love this type of music.
Omg this is so beautiful. It sounds so mystical and wonderful.
when i went to bed after listening to this for a while, i had a pretty good dream about a group of nords wandering along a lake so thank you
So beautiful, the lake and all!
I keep coming back to this video, I love it.
Haunting! Love this, Myrkur!
Please make an album like this! No fancy production, just song and simple intruments.
Wow, this almost sounds medieval, beautiful!
Beautiful music and singing from a talented artist. Mareridt is one of the best albums of 2017.
My ancestral blood has been stimulated.
This music hits in such a different way.
Is this what heaven sounds like?
Such a beautiful yet powerful sound from medieval days. This is completely foreign to modern western culture. Amazing beautiful voice too.
Your voice and instrument sound are just amazing!
I didn't know such an instrument existed until this. Beautiful singing, playing, and setting.
So happy to be scandinavian! This was so beautiful!
Reminds me of a different time. Thank you for your titlark.
So basically, the old school Nords knew what real music was.
This is incredible and very inspirational!
It's great. The atmoshpere of the setting really helps. I have Beth (from Beth roars) to thank to discover this.
Woah, that was Beautiful. 💐
If I heard such a beautiful sound in the middle of the forest I would have to follow that sound.
Love it from Morocco blad lk7la
I listen to you only in the morning, that my day was excellent
bellissima e bravissima, in una parola: magica;)
Would pay more to see this woman play (in that place) than any other (modern?!¿) musical group today. Thank you!

This should be featured on the next Elder Scrolls O.O
that's exactly what i thought when i first listened to her music! :-)
Perhaps not though, seeing as it would be quite strange for Bethesda to make another game set in Skyrim.

Omg chills everywhere. Feel like it transported me back to another life...
That's amazing
I'm not blonde or Scandinavian but I fell in love with this song 😍😍
I want to sing and dance on this! I love it :o !! Thank you from France :)
At first I thought she was holding an AK47 or something in the thumbnail.
When instead of Nordic you read Slavic and you just know how it's gonna go from there.
Better watch out when she starts playing..
cultural appropriation at its finest
I could listen to this for hours.
I am a Turk and it sounds like our old middle asian enstruments like 'yaylı kopuz' So ı love your music.Please make more..Loves from Turkey..
