there's a timelessness of hearing the biggest mfer in the invading army going "where's their king?" and the king goes "keep coming and you'll find him"
The problem was that the same line of thinking got Olav Tryggvason killed at Svolder in 1000. Norwegians thought that the Danes were useless at sea, which were true most of the time, but at Svolder Norwegians rebels fought on the Danish side.
The good old Norwegian kings. Asks his men if they want to risk the fight or evacuate instead. Has a named sword. Helpfully directs enemy commander to his location so they can have a duel in the middle of a battle. Wins the duel and the battle, despite six to one odds (granted, a well equipped royal guard fighting on home ground vs light infantry tired from rowing in).
I truly appreciate having both Nynorsk & English subtitles with the song. I was happy to see how much Norwegian I remembered from college back in the 1970s by following along with the subtitles. (I was taught Bokmaal, but I learned a lot of dialect folksongs in the Norwegian glee club at my college, and that really has helped with understanding Nynorsk as well.)
@@CyrodiilicKhajiit Ja, litt. (I took Conversational Danish classes at the local community college my senior year in high school, which probably helped with getting admission to Concordia College (Moorhead, MN), which was just starting to develop its Scandinavian Studies program when I got there. And I took Conversational Swedish classes for my last 1 1/2 years of undergrad, at nearby Moorhead State University. On a cross-country train ride across Denmark the summer after my junior year, I started chatting (in my best Bokmaal-accented Danish) with the Danes in the next seat, and they thought I was Norwegian!)
It's not exactly Nynorsk either, this is more so medieval Norwegian. But most of these songs were preserved by people in the districts from which nynorsk is based on so I see where the confusion stems from.

Doesn't get brought up in the song, but Håkon the Good died after the battle of Fritjar in 961, from wounds inflicted during the battle. This lead to Harald Greycloak (one of Eirik Bloodaxe's sons, who was the brother of Haakon the Good and the 'leader' being sent against Håkon by the danes) taking power, until he later got betrayed and killed by Harald Bluetooth of Denmark. Greycloak started killing pro-Harald Bluetooth jarls in south-east norway, so Bluetooth lured him to Denmark saying he was gathering an army to fight against the Franks. He then set up an ambush in the Limfjord where Greycloak and his men were killed. Eirik's sons tried three times to wrestle power from their uncle, failed twice and lost the last battle but still 'won' since Håkon died. Greycloak was also the third in line, since Eirik's oldest son Gamle was killed in the first battle, and Guttorm in the second. Eirik was the oldest living son when Harald Fairhair died, and was groomed to be high-king over his brother, but he was not a popular man and lost power quickly to his younger brother Håkon. He went to northern england, but was ousted from power there as well and most likely died in a battle seven years prior to the battle in this song.
When Ingen uploads, you know the song is not only interesting, but also good. I heard some songs from Harald, but didn't really liked them, except for Rolandskvadet a one another. But this, this is good. I don't know if we have similar taste in music, but he always finds the best version of each song, and best songs from each period.

He might be regarded well here, but in reality he sold out our culture and heritage for better relations with the germans and then tried to force the Norwegians into his scheme.
Haakon Haraldsson (c. 920-961), also Haakon the Good (Old Norse: Hákon góði, Norwegian: Håkon den gode) and Haakon Adalsteinfostre (Old Norse: Hákon Aðalsteinsfóstri, Norwegian: Håkon Adalsteinsfostre), was the king of Norway from 934 to 961.

@@Archius_09 they are many Viking clans the Danes your talking I have danish on my mom’s side of the family don’t get me wrong Denmark has legendary kings of it’s owns
@@varangianguard7102 ‘Christian’ back than in Scandinavia was something very different than it is today. Most people in that area at that time that converted only ‘converted’ because 1-Their King or Jarl had converted and used their army to force the population to convert too ( and most Kings and Jarls only converted to get trade benefits/free trade with Christian countries; to get funds/money/help from the Church in Rome; to avoid war with a Christian country in mainland Europe; to be able to marry a Christian woman from the royalty of other country; to secure an alliance with a Christian country in Europe; or to consolidate their rule in their own territory since one of the main ways to validate your claim to a throne at the time was claiming ancestry from a God or claiming to be directly sent from heavens by a God or chosen by a God, but it wasn’t exactly an easy thing to do, since you had to be extraordinary at something, such as being extremely intelligent or extremely good at fighting or extremely talented in art or maybe perform miracles or do magic tricks for people to believe you… so claiming ancestry/favoritism from a God that came from a far away land and completely different culture and that people knew little to nothing about, such as Jesus Christ, was much easier and more believable for a guy that had nothing that special. Plus in a polytheistic religion, even if you claim to be the descendant of a God or be sent by/chosen by a God and even if people believe you, someone else can just as easily come along and claim the same about some other God, and people believe him, join his side and fight against you for the throne. But in a religion with only one God, all other claims become invalid automatically ), and 2-Because they went to battle, or went through a famine, or some sort of other hardship like that, and prayed to Jesus “just to try out this new God”, and somehow they made it out alive and they attributed that miracle to him. So most of the times, a King or Jarl that “became Christian” was only so in name, but in reality still had completely non-Christian practices ( didn’t pray, didn’t go to Church Sunday morning, didn’t read the Bible, didn’t donate to the poor, loved to get drunk, didn’t fast, married several wives at the same time and had a lotta sex outside marriage, didn’t carry around a crucifix, still like to be burnt in their funeral instead of buried, still liked going to war just for the sake of it, still attacked, robbed, killed and destroyed Churches and priests, etc ) and most often even still believed in the Old Gods, and even prayed to them in private. Meanwhile, the common people who converted often did so simply out of fear of what would happen if they didn’t convert, but in private were also still Pagan ( much like the Jews who were still Jewish in secret in Europe for centuries ), and many others ‘converted’ willingly but only saw Jesus was one more God to add to their Patheon, and worshipped him as someone on the same level as other Gods ( and often also even saw him as the same as some already existing Norse God, such as Baldr ).

I know that is not so important, but which literature standard of Norwegian is it? I think that’s Nynorsk.
It isn’t nynorsk or bokmål it is a dialect, but writren in a combination if nynorsk and bokmål.
@@curlyemperor9288, o, that’s very interesting! Thank you!
@@curlyemperor9288 I'd say its very close to nynorsk, but it uses some old forms that you would seldom if ever see or hear used today.
Bokmål? Doesn't come into it IMO.
I wish we norwegiands still could talk like we did in the viking ages.
I wish we Danes could still talk like the Norwegians...
@@Tom_Quixote i like the way Danes talk
Just gotta go to smaller towns up north, we have thousands of dialects and some of them are pretty close
@@Brigtzen If you mean by "up north" Iceland, then yes.
move to Älvdalen and learn the local language, thats as close as you will get nowdays: th-cam.com/video/HxB4FLUKDT8/w-d-xo.html
Despite its not from my culture, its a honour to be European.
I'm trying to learn norwegian and these songs really do help!!
That’s old Norse/Traditional Norwegian, the predeceser of Bokmaal
@@hilmust6278 No its not.
Its more old-fashioned nynorsk, old Norse would be closer to modern Icelandic, something that few Norwegians today would understand.
@@fhlostonparaphrase It's not that old fashioned, since the text has om instead of um
1:36 Lapatata brought me with this
Same😂😂😂
Very good song.
Where can these songs be purchased in MP3 format?
The owner have uploaded these on spotify, that’s the most easiest thing

I created my very own language called “Rexharian” which is very similar to Norwegian and other Nordic languages. I would consider it a Nordic language myself. It’s not finished. Maybe I’ll get some word inspirations from this song as I learn Norwegian.
Avril Lavigne wa ni stanaju svelken (Avril Lavigne is my favorite singer) in the beautiful Rexharian language I made 💙💎❄
nice i would like to learn more
@@Finlandia_ ok. So so sorry for the late reply. These are Rexharian lyrics from a song.
(REX) Val år hef bestött med noj nyu. Är vü skitt, kuvs Avril Lavigne? Vi miot eit vü är upptek, kuvs Avril Lavigne.
(ENG) One year has passed with no news. Are you there, dear Avril Lavigne? We know now you are busy, dear Avril Lavigne.
Only X century Vikings kids remember this song.
