I've been exploring the beauty of Sweden with Google street view while listening to First Aid Kit. Their beautiful music is now like the soundtrack to their beautiful country.
Not long ago I came across these two beautiful women with God sent voices , can’t gat enough of them ❤❤❤ real music that touches your heart and soul ❤️❤️❤️
"The Lion's Roar" Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook The fact that they've been blindly deceived By those who preach and pray and teach But she falls short and the night explodes in laughter But don't you come here and say I didn't warn you About the way your world can alter And oh how you try to command it all still Every single time it all shifts one way or the other And I'm a goddamn coward, but then again so are you And the lion's roar, the lion's roar Has me evading and hollering for you And I never really knew what to do Well I guess sometimes I wish you were a little more predictable That I could read you just like a book For now I can only guess what's coming next By examining your timid smile And the ways of the old, old winds blowing you back 'round And I'm a goddamn fool, but then again so are you And the lion's roar, the lion's roar Has me seeking out and searching for you And I never really knew what to do Sometimes I wish I could find my Rosemary Hill I'd sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I'd sing And every once in a while I'd sing a song for you That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea And if I wanted it to it would lead you back to me And the lion's roar, the lion's roar Is something that I have heard before A children's tale, the lonesome wail of a lion's roar
What business is it of yours if your neighbor is hospitable? If you don't invite guests, they need not visit you, but why should your neighbor need anyone's permission to welcome guests, just because you don't want to watch them pass by? Do you own not only your home, but your neighbor's as well, and the streets that lead to it?
Lol at the always whiney replies of the usual suspects... It only got worse, and it will continue to, it seems. Selfishness is so deeply rooted in ppl, especially when the real trends/media cultivate it for years.
Generally speaking, it's true that you can't beat legit stupidity. Especially when you're taught not to even try (often to resist it in you too, because if everyone did that then they wouldn't need much help or babysitting from others).
I was at the concert last night in Manchester and I really can't put in to words how amazing these two girls are.Just keyboard, drums, acoustic guitar and voices (oh Lord, the voices!) and these young girls can put any band to shame! Even the support artist (Samantha Crain) was incredible. Music is alive and well, all us old fogey's can rest easy.
you girls are just AMAZING. I'm from Brazil, you are starting to be known here, depending on me everybody will know that "the first aid kit" is a promisse of good folk music for ever. You makes me sad and happy on a same time with your music. Such a strange feeling. Kisses!
Clara is wonderful but there are others ! try "sights" London Grammar, "the curse Agnes Obel, "the end" Natalie merchant, "california", mazzy star, "enter one " Sol seppy" , "moon on moon" bat for lashes , "clouds of reason " John and mary, " White Chalk" Polly harvey, "of love undone " Lisa Gerrard , "lakes of canada" Innocence Mission. Beautiful haunting modern music . it is out there if you are prepared to give it a go !
Is it just me or do you folks too think about our world (today and past), war mongers and people with power and money riling up the nations and religions against another, because profit and stupidity? With this lyrics I can really think of nothing else. To me this is totaly the most important song ever made. I wish John Lennon was still alive to know this smart, wonderful girls. Also I wish we lived in a world were songs like this would be #1 in all countries. Instead of the crap we're used to today. Anyway everyone seems to love this much but i feel like there's so much to talk about here. This deserves so much more attention that just a thumbs up. Also the person who says this reminds them on Bob Dylan made me smile. Yes friend, we are getting there. This is highly political. Like many of Bobs songs were.
Jeran Xii Not to start a grammar war, but I think you meant, "these smart, wonderful girls," or, "this smart, wonderful girl." Just trying to help. #yourfriendlyneighbourhoodgrammarnazi!
Just sharing something as insignificant as nationalities with these two wonderful women make me all giggly inside. Keep up the fantastic work you are doing.
These awesome gals will be in Minneapolis, MN June 3, 2014, at the Varsity Theater in Dinkytown by the University of Minnesota. Finally get to see and hear them!
I just discovered these girls this morning and have spent all day watching and listening them. They are amazing! So happy I found them accidentally. So young and talented. Go girls!
I practically screamed when I saw you'd posted this! Amazing. Seriously, you keep getting better and better and I don't know how that's even possible anymore. And as always, loving the creepy subtle feeling to your videos.
Omg! I absolutely LOVE this song! It's my new favourite, and I definately do not say that lightly. These girls are amazing, and then some...sooo extremely talented! This video is also beautifully haunting. It goes perfectly with their sublime voices!
I love the naturey-ness of these girls! :) Hey Strawberry-Try not to compare yourself to others. You've got your own talents that will show themselves all through-out your life. Cheers!
This song takes me to a spiritual place that i can not describe in words but that are perfectly described by the forest and the circle of dance. Thank you very much for this gift to my ears and soul. You are truly gifted.
i'm watching it all from the start again on 40D, for me the show will never die :) ... 'till they stop showing it on there and i have to buy the box sets
I didn't knew them,,, just heard them on the television,,,, there's something hypnotysing about the music, and the voice,, all of it,,, I'm reallly happy that music like this still is alive in the 2000-years^^ amazing job, and never stop =)
Det var länge sedan jag hörde så bra musik som denna låt och text. Lycka till i fortsättningen! It was a long time since I heard such good music like this song and text. Good luck in the future! Rolf i Happis
Had to say the game brought me here. up to that point the world felt empty. Then bam! World building via cinematics and awesome song that makes you cry out "Yes!!"
every one is beautiful on their own way and i like these to girls. They have a huge talent and amazing voices and that makes the songs so fantastic !!!
Så makalöst vackert tjejer. Eran fantastiska musik med en sån här video är sånt som man kan visa för folk världen över och med stolthet kunna säga att man är från samma land. Så underbart bra.
I think so. I am from Iceland and have heard Emiliana Torrini´s music for 18 years and she´s pretty much regarded cute Icelandic sweetheart with accessible music that appeals to mid range adult contemporary crowd.
Personally... Me being a music lover, never seen these girls before i heard them. Their voices were beautiful in my ears and heart. Then when i saw them, and the emotion they put into their songs........ I loved them again.
It's got a 'Nordic' feel. Celtic and Nordic music can sound similar because of the instrumentation but they are significantly different modally and rhythmically. I If you like Celtic bands you'll probably dig their Nordic cousins: the likes of Gjallarhorn, Väsen, Värttinä and Groupa. Overall Contemporary Scandinavian folk music often feels a bit more trancey and mystical to me; Tolkinesque perhaps? First Aid Kit are definitely channelling some of this pagan spirit through their video although obviously their passion has been for Country and Americana - I'm looking forward to hearing where their music develops.
Yeah i'm from Australia so i'm not aware of all these things but when i say Celtic i mean old Scandinavian feel in general. Thanks for clearing it up though
"AND I'M A GODDAMN COWARD, but then again, so are you." Amazing line
That's when the song really hooked me. Something about that line and its delivery, damn.
Yeah
It's so honest. And rueful.
The Long Dark took me here... then i stayed for the beautiful song :)
me to =)
Check out "My Silver Lining" the song in Tell Tales Borderlands by this band too : )
Same my sister played the intro and I fell in love!!!
Me too! They are pretty good, may just buy the album XD
Me too
the long dark , anyone ?
Right here man
Song pictures game amazing,just amagining Gray mother and Will defending Milton
Yay, me
I love the long dark its so amazing!! And this song fits perfectly!!!

I came here from The Long Dark; beautiful song, fits the game's athmosphere perfectly!
Amazing job ladies! I was so excited to see this posted. You two are SO talented. I hope we get to see you go far. xx
hi
Both beautiful girls, both beautiful voices. Just one word may describe them.
"unbelievable'
actually i was looking for the real lion roaring , but this is better!
😂
EnerGie 2k12 lmao
EnerGie 2k12 Agreed, These 2 Lionesses know how to roar!
That's awesome!
@@cesargarcont5515 1111
can we all just agree this is good music?
They have the most beautiful harmonies its unbelievable!

"The Lion's Roar"
Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things
She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook
The fact that they've been blindly deceived
By those who preach and pray and teach
But she falls short and the night explodes in laughter
But don't you come here and say I didn't warn you
About the way your world can alter
And oh how you try to command it all still
Every single time it all shifts one way or the other
And I'm a goddamn coward, but then again so are you
And the lion's roar, the lion's roar
Has me evading and hollering for you
And I never really knew what to do
Well I guess sometimes I wish you were a little more predictable
That I could read you just like a book
For now I can only guess what's coming next
By examining your timid smile
And the ways of the old, old winds blowing you back 'round
And I'm a goddamn fool, but then again so are you
And the lion's roar, the lion's roar
Has me seeking out and searching for you
And I never really knew what to do
Sometimes I wish I could find my Rosemary Hill
I'd sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I'd sing
And every once in a while I'd sing a song for you
That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea
And if I wanted it to it would lead you back to me
And the lion's roar, the lion's roar
Is something that I have heard before
A children's tale, the lonesome wail of a lion's roar
thx :)
This is sweden! This is Scandinavia! and you are always welcome here, and it does not matter where you are from or who you are.
who gave you permission to make such a statement? your ancestors? maybe your self hate?
What business is it of yours if your neighbor is hospitable? If you don't invite guests, they need not visit you, but why should your neighbor need anyone's permission to welcome guests, just because you don't want to watch them pass by? Do you own not only your home, but your neighbor's as well, and the streets that lead to it?

Finaly some Nordic love !!! i love these gilrls voices and music !!!!!!

I don't know how on earth I stubbled on this, but so glad I did. Such a unique and gorgeous song.
Pure talent. Im just out of words. Unbelievable. Surreal. Incredible. Gorgeous, Marvelous. oh the voices make my heart sing.
Epic song, never tire of listening to this after 9 years...
How fortunate is the world, to have such beauty and talent within it's shelter.
They got voices like angels! And they make me think of the happy 60's and 70's :D
What a wonderful and clear voice. Finally some real talent.
Clara is wonderful but there are others ! try "sights" London Grammar, "the curse Agnes Obel, "the end" Natalie merchant, "california", mazzy star, "enter one " Sol seppy" , "moon on moon" bat for lashes , "clouds of reason " John and mary, " White Chalk" Polly harvey, "of love undone " Lisa Gerrard , "lakes of canada" Innocence Mission.

coming from Long Dark. Great game, great song...
le ho scoperte per caso...che brave!quante belle cose arrivano dalla Scandinavia.
They are so powerful , you got me .
Love this 12 years later
I love how just as you think the song is over it keeps going.
GORGEOUS Vid - Lyrical -Cadence - Musical Arrangement. WELL done gal's....
Is it just me or do you folks too think about our world (today and past), war mongers and people with power and money riling up the nations and religions against another, because profit and stupidity?

Also the person who says this reminds them on Bob Dylan made me smile. Yes friend, we are getting there. This is highly political. Like many of Bobs songs were.
and to make things worse, the new rihanna song sounds like a popped up, meaningless rip off of this amazing and original group.

Thank god for First Aid Kit. Real music and musicians aren't dead yet.
Just sharing something as insignificant as nationalities with these two wonderful women make me all giggly inside.
Keep up the fantastic work you are doing.
"i'm a godamn coward, but then agian so are you" awesome line!
Thanks a thousand times **THE LONG DARK** game
The voices!! 😍❤️👌
This was the first song I learnt to play on the guitar. Its the perfect folk song.
Seeing First Aid Kit live in three weeks and I'm so excited!
J'ai découvert cette musique avec The long dark, un vrai plaisir j'adore ;)
Pink brought me here !! Absolutely loved the song !
First heard of this from The Concept tweet by Magnus, and instantly became addicted to this tune...
Discovered this duo via NME magazine tonight. Really, really glad that I did.
These awesome gals will be in Minneapolis, MN June 3, 2014, at the Varsity Theater in Dinkytown by the University of Minnesota. Finally get to see and hear them!
Found this on tv, noted the name because I sort of liked it, one hour later-LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!
I just discovered these girls this morning and have spent all day watching and listening them. They are amazing! So happy I found them accidentally. So young and talented. Go girls!
Came here from The Long Dark. Aside from the Battlefield series, soundtracks in games don't usually impress me. This one did.
MY GOD I LOVE KLARA'S VOICE!!!

R5d4d2 you must have a keen ear cause I cant tell the differance between her & johanna. love them both
Saw them at greenman a couple of years ago and have loved them ever since
I practically screamed when I saw you'd posted this! Amazing. Seriously, you keep getting better and better and I don't know how that's even possible anymore. And as always, loving the creepy subtle feeling to your videos.

Awesome voices and melody. My current favorite.
I've used streetview to explore many parts of Norway, particularly the coast. It's astonishingly beautiful. I hope to visit someday!
I love First Aid Kit
I love that I am seeing a playlist entitled "Indie Hipster Music" to my right >>>
