- Glemselens Elv written and performed by Burzum on his album Belus (2010). Acoustic cover version by me, Leiv Reed. It took me a few years to really dive into this song. If you want more of this, Subscribe and leave a comment. thanks for watching…
You may say a lot of things about mr. Vikernes, but at his best, he's a great songwriter. This song is as hypnotic and calming as any other Steve Reich or Brian Eno composition, and really places him with at least one foot in the ambient genre. I based this version stricyly on the original, and started my work tuning the guitar to the original and mapping out all the parts and beats in my recording software. I guess I could've spent even more time on perfecting the arrangement with a lot of small rhythmic things going on the four guitar tracks, but I guess I am a bit restless and I also enjoy the small quirks a good ol' mistake adds to a recording. And perfection is never an aim for me.
Thanks so much for watching, and to those of you who asked me years ago if I could do a version of this song. It took a pandemic for me to try. So I hope it can give someone out there something when listening, at least a feeling of calm or maybe even a bit of sadness or melancholy.
Lyrics - "Glemselens Elv"
Med døende sol og måne
starter ferd til skyggenes hav.
Bjørnen vil bålferd bivåne.
Liket legges i steintung grav.
Bakom slør høres jordens gråt;
sommerens lys som forsvinner,
eikeånden legges i båt,
vinter og høst igjen vinner.
Jeg vil komme tilbake.
Jeg vil komme igjen.
Når vinterens ånder er svake,
vil jeg komme hjem.
Under jord, den skjulte verden,
bakom skyene imot vest,
ender den lange bålferden,
hvor vinter og høst holder fest.
Det er kaldt og mørkt i dypet,
vokser der bare skyggene,
der finnes det mørke krypet,
de dunkleste uhyggene.
Jeg vil komme tilbake.
Jeg vil komme igjen.
Når vinterens ånder er svake,
vil jeg komme hjem.
Døde hviler i hvite klær
bak tunge, kalde steindører,
men lytter du til dødens hær
du av og til sangen hører.
Døde hviler i hvite klær
bak tunge, kalde steindører,
men lytter du til dødens hær
du av og til sangen hører.
Jeg vil komme tilbake.
Jeg vil komme igjen.
Når vinterens ånder er svake,
vil jeg komme hjem.

Hey, I just wanted to tell you that this cover seems to heal me. There's something about it, telling me to wake up from my despair. This hopelessness and the struggle, I'm losing with.
I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate how you've expressed how the cover sounds even more better with small mistakes. No one's perfect. You are wholesome. I'm downloading this. I'm going to sing along.
I'm going to try to wake up.
I am moved by your words. Thank you deeply.
@@LeivReed I feel like Aladinsane. Your music brings peace and helps to handle existence's weight.
Thank you so much for this. I'm speechless right now, but I'll return and listen it again and again to comment something else.
I hope that Aladinsane is well, as like you.
My best wishes, friends.
Varg never runs away from "mistakes". Thats part of the soul of his music. He hates artificial overproduced stuff. This is perfect the way it is
@@DietrichGabriel I'm here friend. Thank you. This comment section feels like a treasure. It's been 6 months and I can say I am doing better. You tell me. What's the update?
🖤 there’s so much healing in dark music.
Varg would be proud
Your Burzum cover especialy bring peace to my Brain...
eso my friend execelente cuando me siento triste escucho a liev y su guitarra me lleva amis vidas cuando era vikingo jarl y cacique en vidas pasadas reflexiono todo lo que me pasa y soluciono se eleva mi espiritu alma en un esplandor de paz de sentirme bien sigua componiendo mas musica asi liev
After all that blackened noise we go through, some soft acoustic melody always gets welcomed to hold the balance of mind. Veldig bra, Leiv!
Rodhenik Development thank you. I feel the same way. We need both. I appreciate your words, and that you are listening.
Looped the original song for maybe 5-6 times yesterday, so i assume why this gem got into my feed. Great arrangement and performance, and great atmosphere too! Might have to figure out how to play this myself too.
What a beautiful find.
This is candle burning music, well done man.
Great respect for this beautiful, atmospheric, genius Cover version of Glemselens elv!
You are are fantastic musician.
May the true european spirit come again, when the winter spirits are weak.
HEILL BURZUM, heill BalðuR, heill Óðinn!
Jeg vil komme tilbake.
Jeg vil komme igjen.......!!!
this is breathtaking
dude, this is so beautiful. This cover also conveys a bit of the mood from Sangre de Muerdago. l am absolutely loving it. Thank you!!
Bravo :) Très bonne reprise. Les chansons de Varg sont légendaires.
This is so beautiful and hypnotizing.. Great work dude!
What an honor to have THEE cena visiting.
Words cannot express how this made me feel.
Wonderful effort Mr. Reed, you created something new yet oh so familiar.
I know it's Varg's piece but the first few seconds made me think of older stuff by Sonne Hagal. It's just that low tune. Awesome, love it. :-)
Who has seen the wind?
@@RafaeoNobre1 It's a good match, indeed. Though I rather had 'Shapes of Things to Come' or 'Das letzte Lied' (The last song) in mind. Or maybe 'Forseti - Der graue König' (That gray king). Do not compare tempi or rhythm, just atmosphere and that ultra low ambience. Not sure I can explain it understandably.
@@killianlomax8237 Forseti was on my mind when I was listening to this.
@@tratata8199 still is on mine ;-)
AMAZING. AMAZING.
Acoustic metal is a thing for me now. ;D Listening thru most covers of metal song played on the acoustic guitar, your talent shines thru! Your interpretation of Burzum is amazing. True mastery!
Beautiful 🖤
This cover is something else! Accidentally found it on Spotify and now I'm obsessed. It gives off those guitar and campfire vibes... Actually, this feels more epic-dark-foresty than the original version. Great job!
This song has become my daily bread, thank you for making me feel infinity
Love it so beautiful.🖤
Beautiful. I'm inspired to string and set up my classical guitar. I mainly play electric. Keep it up brother .
Killer one heh awesome man
Best song in 2020 for me. I honestly love it. Thanks for this master piece.
I would love to know the arrangement of this. Such a beautiful sound!
Make Jeg Faller or Valen next time dude ! Keep doing this great job ,even the less numbers of views, etc . This music is created to be underground !
Thank you for listening and your suggestion. I did a version of ‘Jeg Faller’ but forgot to tell you.
@@LeivReed O yeah i already enjoy the track ! Its again on top quality ! Thank you a lot for the great covers and music !
@@LeivReedValen would be amazing!! Thanks to share a part of you on this covers ❤
Please do an instructional video or tabs, I wanna learn this so bad
I peaked into your channel and instantly subbed, this is sublime art and what i love to see in covers, a different iteration of the song.
very beautifully executed, refining a gem.
this got to be your best cover. I'm amazed by your talent and how you truly feel the music. the guitar playing is quite sloppy sometimes but it contributes so much to the final result, it feels human, which is lacking nowadays. I could listen your clips for days. It hurts and heals at the same time, it's just fucking good. thank you so much for sharing this
Very good acoustic breakdown dude, top quality. What a lot of people doesnt know is that you can acoustic like this a lot of Black Metal music because of the melodic structures that the genre have, very dark in composition but extremely melodic.
Wonderful!!
My new sleeping background. Beautiful
Greetings from Turkey, I liked your cover more than the original one, you're making your own interpret to song hope you come great places in the future

This is so, so great. You'll have to forgive me, but I'll have to download this video or convert it to audio or something and store it for the future, you can't trust youtube, and I'll be crushed if somehow this got blocked or removed someday.
Amazing work :)

Great work, you got some skills there man. Keep it up
Спасибо друг! Я нуждался в этом!
I’ve been listening to vargs post prison stuff and man, seeing glemselens elv come up from you is just too good. It’s like if Leonard cohen listened to black metal, which I mean as a total compliment. Thanks for covering. What tuning is your guitar in? I’d love to pick up a nylon sometime
This is great!
Can you make and share tab with us, please?
It will make my heart burn as hell ;)
Beautiful🤘🏻
We love you Man ❤
Amazing
not eazy to cover great job my G
haunting
Sounds great
hei venn det er veldig bra takk for at du spiller akustisk denne sangen
Amazing cover man!!!!
Nice playing
Come here again and again.
Man, could you please make a video about yourself as a person? Don’t know about the others but I’d like to know something about your life
oh. thank you for listening. i am so glad the internet makes it easier to reach out to others with similar tastes in music. after all, liking black metal, and other strange forms of music, isn't for everyone.
what kind of information are you interested in? I'll see what I can man up to do. are you thinking like a varg/burzum driving around in the forest, humming to songs, working on the engine whilst talking type of thing?
Leiv Reed, pretty good kind of blog i think)
I have no exact questions. Something like where are you from, how old, how did your music taste evolved through years. Its more interesting to listen to what you personally wish to tell about.
Greetings from
Grozny and Moscow
thanks
Phenomenal cover ! Is this in E standard ?
Cheers !
Урыыыы, он это сделал)
о да, он сделал! все для Юрия!
@@LeivReed )
What’s the tunning ?
Btw i really like it man
Beautiful. Which tuning is that.
Hi! I use the DADGA#D as a starting point, and then I lowered it a few steps more.
Can you cover something by Ulver? Maybe Drudkh?
Drudkh would be absolutely awesome
This is my fave post prison song from varg, you fucking nailed it, can I have permission to take the audio from this video? It's beautiful
Thanks! It’s possible to stream from all streaming sites. I could give you a .wav if you want a hi res aufio file too.
Can you please cover Dawn of Epiphany?!
musikk!
Mork did similar cover of Valen
where can i find the tabs for this?
This is really fucking good. Is there somewhere I can download this?
Thanks.
It should be up on my Bandcamp (and streaming services). You can search for Leiv Reed.
Can you send tabs for this acoustic version?
Hi. I am sorry. I don't do tabs, but I can make an instruction video instead if that is of interest.
@@LeivReed Yes! I appreciate if you make a tutorial video of this acoustic version.
Pls man do one from gerbechickelheit
I never know how to say this fucking name but i guess you know
I want a girlfriend to hear this stoned in the sofa
Can have your tab man?
Sorry. Don’t do tabs. But I recommend starting by just tuning the guitar and trying to listen/watch
@@LeivReed In what tuning ? Great version.
Это шд братик
