Fun fact: The featured singer Johan Gotthardt Olsen (lead singer of the Danish rock band Magtens Korridorer) is also an assistant professor and researcher at Department of Biology, University of Copenhagen. He holds a PhD in macromolecular crystallography and biochemistry.
Not often you see a rock star with an active academic career like that.
And just to add…. He makes podcasts for kids about science and is bloody good at it too :)
And radio host
He also writes childrens books.
It's insane that he can sound EXACTLY the same live as he does in the studio. Not many singers out there can pull that off
You read my mind
Its called "not using autotune"
same thought
In my opinion he sounds better live than on tape.
@@justastupidjourney3978 You read my mind
I work with kids age 5 - 10 here in Denmark and I love putting this on at full volume and see the kids rock out and sing along
For eviiiiiiiigt
Altid for evigt.
This song is so beloved in Denmark. In 2020, I performed a romantic (classical) version of this song, at a wedding. Not many rock-songs can be considered appropriate for a wedding, but this one had everyone at the wedding crying happy tears. It's an amazing song.
The drummer is wearing a Sort Sol T-shirt. The most legendary in danish music history. Plz check them out.
Ja - det lagde jeg også mærke til. Glamourpuss 👍
For Evigt” is Danish for forever or eternally.
The song features Johan Olsen as the guest artist, the singer from Magtens Korridorer, a Danish rock band.
There is a version with an English chorus, called “The Bliss”.
On the international version of the album, “For Evigt” and “The Bliss” have their track positions swapped.
“For Evigt” is a song about remembering the good things in life and celebrating it. ‘Cause nobody knows if it’s going to last forever. It’s great to be working with Johan again - I think we work well together.
By the way the stalker-serial killer type (Johan Olsen) has a phd. in molecular biology as well as beeing the leadsinger i one of the most popular rock bands i Denmark as well as beeing part of two more sideprojekts.
Nice lol
Not only a phd...
He's Teaching!!!
I think it’s fair to put Volbeat as one of the most popular bands in Europe. Huge in Sweden and heard them on the radio in Germany too.
He also co-hosts a really good podcast 😎
@@hassetjifrebro8222 Very popular in the Netherlands aswell
Dude, welcome to the greatness that is Volbeat. I think you'd love "Lonesome Rider" and "Lola Montez".
Still counting 😉
It's a number played for the Danish Handball team that now won 3 World cup in a row !!
Banjo artist is Rod Sinclair Scot Living in Denmark, female Singer is Mia Maja who have done a bit of work with Volbeat but not that famous for her own music, Telia Parken is the Danish National Stadium in Copenhagen where most big stadium bands would play in Denmark, and something a lot of Danish bands aspire to be able to fill out, Volbeat has had a few tours where they played after Telia Parken.
The Danish bit : For evigt, måske for evigt
Ska' vi sammen samme vej
Og når i morgen får øjne, og natten hviler sig
Ska' vi for evigt måske samme vej
Rough Translation: For Ever, maybe for ever,
Will we together go the same way,
And when tomorrow open its eyes, and the night rests,
Will we forever go the same way.
It definitely is an anthem, the second largest sport in Denmark, Handball, have more or less adopted this anthem to say that the fans, especially of the male and female national teams, sing this chorus during games to show the team unwavering support. In fact just yesterday during Denmark world championship game against Chile you could hear the crowd singing this chorus and the stadium speaker thanking the crowd for the song.
Personally for me the song is about the rocky road a relationship can be on, and the singer stating how all of those memories in spite of the problems still make him wish that the relationship will last forever.
I was there. It's from Telia arena in Copenhagen.. they were the first native band to sell the arena out..magic is the word
I was at this concert. In the front. Got the ticket for free, by the most fantastic group; For Helede Support Denmark, by a member that said it should be a member in need. My father was sick and died a year later. But it was a fantastic concert. And long. We were around 50,000 fans. The biggest concerts with a danish band in Denmark ever.
They are rockabilly meets metal. The more you listen to them, the more you hear it.
oh hell yes Volbeat some good old American style Rockabilly by a Danish Band, I recommend some other songs by this band, Lola Montez, Die to Live, Cheapside Sloggers, Leviathan
Who are you to tell us witch are a good band when you even know them. .Get of your job give it to someone who knows what the talk about...shame on you
It’s oldstyle danish rock
You have to see it live! One of the most beautiful moments in my life
I was at the koncert, it was AMAZING!!!
Volbeat is the best metal band in Europe atm
You must listen to all the songs of Volbeat, It's worth your time. The first time I listened to them was in 2001. To put it that way, I was "mind blown" by them. And I still listen to them..
yes the one from Telia Parken the one ft. Professor Johan Olesen ( he used to be a professer at copenhagens university. But after budget cuts he works as a freelance scientist at the universety ) he is my fav danish singer by far
yep thats the one I did.... please forgive the fact I cant say For Evigt on the first try lol
@@OldSkuleNerd lol dont worry you are forgiven danish is realy hard for roriners to pronaunce ( we dont speek it like its spelled. ) only time i got a little anoyed with you!! Where when you where complaining about Floors mix was off when she sang Ave Maria. You corrected it later but there was no need for that. we all have the right to have our own opinions ( sorry if other Nightwish fans complained a lot about it )
@@OldSkuleNerd you did realy well when trying to pronounce a Danish word for the first time. the only danish you knew before this video was danish pastry i guess.
lige en lille tilføjelse is johan is in the band "magtens korridorer"
Ah. Volbeat is absolutely amazing. So good to see them reacted in the channel. Really liked how you did this one and all the input you had about the ''feel good anthems''. Always learn something new in here!
Check out their track "The Devil's Bleeding Crown", it's a little rockier than this one. For the full heavy Volbeat experience, try "Evelyn", featuring Barney from Napalm Death.
i prefer the demo version where Michael is singing, harkens back to his days in his death metal band Dominus
Johan Olsen 🤘
Volbeat and Johan Olsen has sung two great songs together - The garden's tale it's great.
that "weird serial killer" looking guy is Johan Olsen.
Johan Olsen:
PhD in micropolar advanced technology.
award winner professor at the University of Copenhagen and
lead singer of the rock group "the corridors of power (magtens korridorer)
Great song and an amazing band! So happy you discovered them! They have so many great songs!
If you really want to go down the Johan Olsen/Magtens Korridorer rabbit hole, you should check out the Infernal/Magtens Korridorer live mash of Steady As She Goes (The Raconteurs). Johan is a force of nature and always brings something extra to the party (around 12:30 in this video you can hear Michael Poulsen say "I don't know if I dare" because he knows the second he starts on the chorus, Johan will clear the stage with his sonic waves).
I love Volbeat and I love that the lead singer is a big fan of Elvis Presley and music from that era :-)
Love the Volbeat!!! Thanks for reacting to them. The American version of the song is called “The Bliss” with the chorus sung in English. A couple others by them: The Gardens Tale, Cheapside Sloggers, Dead But Rising, Lola Montez, Doc Holiday.
I love this some so much; it just makes me feel so jazzed!
This is the song that we played as we were introduced as man & wife in our reception. My husband introduced me to this group and I love it because I love him!
When this released radios and shops played it COSTANTLY for the next two years, us Danes got really tired of hearing it xD But it is a really good song when you aren't oversaturated.
Thanks for sharing!! Volbeat is just an amazing band!
"for ever, maybe for ever, are we going the same way and when tomorrow awakens and the night is resting, are we perhaps going the same way" the Danish bit in the song from Johan.
They mostly follow old school rock formula, but they do it so well! One of the few international known bands from our little Denmark :)
Side note: You say its "made" for live performance. and yes it is :) But it is also a great radio song. its has been a big radio hit here in Denmark.
Yay I’m watching this rocking my volbeat shirt, LOL I really love the happy rockabilly metal that they do. And the heavier songs also of course. Also perfect for activity like running, or vacuuming the house or something because it gives a lot of energy.
Johan Olsen spans a wide range in how to reach, teach and touch/influence people.
Musician. TV shows and movies. Radio host. Biologist. PHD in protein crystallography. Works as professor at the Copenhagne University department for Structural Biology and NMR Laboratory. Author of 3 books about teaching science to kids.
Fun fact: Volbeat opened for Metallica, hvem they played in Denmark. And went on tour with them in the US.
Also toured with SlipKnot
everytime i'm watching this volbeat for evigt live video...still make me goosebump...no doubt Michael Poulsen got great vocal even you listen the studio album or live version.. he's so great
I wanted to go to this concert so badly. Danish Volbeat playing for 40k people in Copenhagen was just bound to be epic! And I'm a sucker for anything Johnny Cash/rockabilly
Great job... I was there, so was 47000 other People. Biggest concert in Denmark, with a danish band. Please do check other songs from them. 😘
To me he will always be Metal Elvis!
THIS IS DENMARK!!!! Spartakick
Hey shout out here from South Africa.
Good reaction man! Cheers
Forever.....maybe foreverrrrrr.......we go together.....on the same road.....
And when tomorrow gets eyes.....and the night is resting shall we forevever perhaps the same way!
This was an all star cast, more or less the final show on the tour in their home town. They have guest vocalists in a lot of their songs. During this concert Lars Ulrich (his hometown too) joined in for one of their songs and a cover of enter sandman
I saw them warm up for Saturnus back in the (long lost) days .... years later, I saw Saturnus open for Volbeat :D
"To get all the Volbeat fans done." You'll never be done xD lol I think you would really love the rockabilly 16 Dollars but I adore A Warrior's Call which is just about a boxer in their home town getting in the ring. So glad you finally got to react to them ^^
FYI both are by Volbeat in case that wasn't clear
The boxer was Mikkel Kessler. I watched him fight back in the day. Song is accurate, he was ferocious
The song is The Bliss and its amazingly the song that got me hooked on these guys! They are one of the BEST live bands you will ever see! Check em out sometime when they get close to you!
Hell yeah. I'm from Denmark, and i never imagined, an american reactor would react to a danish band.
By the way, For evigt" roughly translates to: Forever or For eternity.
As fare as danish metal rock bands goes, i would recommend: "Magtens Korridorer" (Another band with Johan Olsen on vocals) "Sort Sol", "Dizzy Mizz Lizzy" and DAD"
Fun fact, DAD originally stood for Disneyland After Dark. Disney Corporation wasn't happy about that. So they had to just call them selfs D.A.D
Týr is technically Danish…
Great reaction sir, I’m totally onboard with your anthem comparison.
I love this band, It was the first band me and my father went together to see live! Many years ago now and they still rock!
I was at the show…..Amazing🧨🧨
YESSSSSSSS! Bout time is right!!!!! Wooooo!!!! Love love love this band. They kill it live! I think you will really grow to love them too. They toured all through America, and was lucky to catch them. They have a few styles, American influenced, and not caught up on one standard sound, spanning a couple decades. They have a few singers (and instrument players), that rotate for a variety of songs. Lead guitarist is an American, and from a popular heavy rock group. Hopefully you react to more, and figure out who he is. Nice Liliac reference too!
Ah...Robbie... of course former Anthrax.. but you might need to be my age (50+) to realize/recognize...
Saw them live in February. They are probably one of the best bands live I've ever seen. They were the headliner for this Telia Parken concert and sold out a nearly 50,000 capacity venue. They have so many great songs and every individual is at the top of their game for the instrument (or vocals and instrument) they play but you never see egos. Love them. Oh, by the way, the stalker looking dude is Johan, Volbeat's lead singer is Michael Poulsen who has a very unique sound himself. Michael, Jon, the drummer, Rob the lead guitarist (used to play with Anthrax) and Kasper the bass player are the only actual band members. Everyone else are guest appearances. I don't remember if it was this concert or another but Lars from Metallica actually played a couple of songs with them live.
This might be the best pronunciation of danish words ive heard from an American. Brit living in DK since 73. PS I've shared some whiskey with volbeat after a gig in my home town about 14-15 years ago.. Great atmosphere, even for a tiny venue. 😊
Hey I jumped over here after hearing you say you were a rock guy and folk rock guy at the beginning if Tom M don't look down tune. I instantly checked to see if you had reacted to any volbeat and Wow I ABSOLUTELY LOVE VOLBEAT!!!! MICHAEL POULSON the lead is a huge Johnny Cash and Elvis fan. His daughters name is E A Abigail...E A fir Elvis Aaron. The guitar guy with the long hair is Rob Coggiano from Anthrax. I love most of their stuff but LAST DAY UNDER THE SUN is special to me. Great reaction. Hope to see more. Volbeat toured an the was a part of the Knot fest. I to grow up in the 70s and 80s.....born in 73
Volbeat can come at you with a banjo or an accordion ....cue the banjo haha You nailed it!!!! I love Volbeat
im danish,but live in london,and has not until now,been introduced to this song...and yes im " forever" loving it...a lot... and im not sure this will go down well with vol;beat, but it would deff have won the eurovision.... im lovin it....
Hi there 🙂
You naied the name of the volbeat song (for evigt) totally 😃👍👍
So well and great done.
Love from Denmark ❤
Way late.. but i was interoduced to Johan by his basist.. very small venue... took the set list and was happy to get all band members sign it..
Then years later i saw Volbeat at the national arena... they pulled in all the big ones as guest stars
in my opinion you are spot on
Saw them in San Antonio with The Hu Band in support. It was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen in 50 years of rock shows! 😎🤘🏻
You should make a react on the Danish group that Johan Olson is the lead sanger in, Magtens korridor. And btw voldbeat is Skandinavien, not north eoropean, and is from the erly 2000 sincerely Birgithe from Denmark
Love it. Love it
love me some Volbeat, and by the way, LOVE the Shirt!!!!!
Hmn ... need to get one of those for a friend of mine in Calhoun.
Amazing!
Thank you!!🎶❤️
From 07:04 and a bit forward in Danish language.
The title "For Evigt" if you didn't know is Danish for "Forever". I love it.
Don't worry about pronouncing things in other languages. You get the score for trying. :) thumbs up!
Danish band. They filled the Danish national stadium this evening, and had some guestsingers come on.
I've always thought Volbeat is pretty much how Elvis would sound had he come up today
If you look close you can see the boxing ring is still there.. from A Warriors Call..
Volbeat are a Danish rock band formed in Copenhagen in 2001. For evigt = forever.
After listening to this I have come to the conclusion I need more Danish in my life ... not the pastries either.
Yes, I went there so Wretched Rob wouldn't.
I am Danish 🇩🇰 and not a big fan of Volbeat. But when this song played on the radio the first time, I was like: Okay this is going to be a classic we are going to hear several times a year for a century!
volbeat is definition of awesome! :D But my favorite is Gardens Tale ft Johan Olsen ang then still counting (:
Awesome to see you react :D
Hey man your reaction was very similar to mine when I first heard Volbeat. 😁 Got to say though it's nice to see you in good spirits considering all that has happened this last few weeks.
And speaking of that, would you consider reacting to Breaking Benjamin's I Will Not Bow? Kinda one of my favorites when things go poorly and helps me soldier on.
❤Volbeat
for Ever, mabey forever, forever we are going the same way. and tomorrow we are going the same way..... love the danish lyrics
Almost 4 minutes before it starts. Brutal.
Man, this is the perfect song to get introduced to Volbeat! Now if you could react to Lola Montez, The devil's Bleeding crown or Fallen will be amazing!
Johan Olsen who is featured in this song, is the lead singer of another danish band called Magtens Korridorer (corridors of Power) which primarily sings in danish (as he does in this clip)
hey OSN, try Volbeat - still counting live at Wacken
yeah...BOSTON love them
The girl is Anne Linnet. Very famous female singer from Denmark.
Nope not even close, it is Mia Maja.
The female that is singing is stine brimson shes amazing
it means forever
Hey man! Just found your channel recently and already love it. I gathered from some of your videos that you rather like yourself some bass playing. Therefore I see it as my duty to recommend Royal Blood. It's a two man-band, bass and drums. Sounds a bit minimalistic, but I can promise you a unqiue sound. "Figure it Out" or "Out of the Black" are good starting songs. Preferably live versions, so that you can actually believe what's happening. Keep up the great entertainment!
There's an all english version called "the bliss."
oh fuck yeah Volbeat! Love it!
Translation from danish: "For evigt" just means "Forever"
In my opinion he sounds better live than on tape.
This was from a concert Volbeat did in Denmark (hometown) Johan was on your with them played this song on the record they have this version they also have a all English version..Volbeat is inspired if you listen to more of their music Michael Poulsen (singer) inspired by Johnny Cash Social Distortion it's rockabilly and can hear that in other songs his voice can sound like Cash check out more Cheers!
Hus a moron
You HAVE to listen to Die To Live by Volbeat
Volbeat is from Denmark and lead singers name is Michael.... Johan Olsen is a scientist and lead singer of a Danish band called Magtens Korridor.... The concert took place in Parken, Copenhagen...
For Evigt is Danish and it means "Forever"
She's Mia Maja.spelling may be off.shes an up and coming Danish singer along the lines of a Lisa Loeb
The girl is Mia Maja. She sings on the album version of the song
Ur so right about this song , and nothing brings ppl more together in DK , than this song playing , man everyone is screaming their lungs out lol ! But this danish band is so much more , ( and differrent ) And Volbeat were also well established as icons already here , before this song came out, ( but i get what U mean ) And ur right ,an anthem song , dont think theres a danish person , who doesnt know this song
I totally agree with you that Volbeat follow the standard Feelgood rock anthem, with a hard rock beat. And their songs are damn good. My little trouble with listening to Volbeat is that they get a bit repetitive. Check out "A Warriors Call" - which is a great song by all means - and you'll see.
As for pronounving "Evigt" you can try the english word evict, but say it kind of slow and with focus on first syllable :)
It is a Danish band.
Johan sings in Danish and he is officially in the song and has sung in other songs with volbeat. He is the lead singer in another Danish band called the Magtens korridorer.
and it's not a festival but a stadium concert with volbeat.
A classic saying even the grandmother's of Denmark recognize so I've been told.
