Saw them tonight in Stavanger, on the reuinion tour. And i mean.... it was like they never left! What a show! 10 years since i last saw them, but it was just the same energy and awesomness. Incredible as always.
I am seeing this group on Bergenfest on 14.06.24 and I cant wait. First time i saw them was back in 1997 I think, They were a warm up band for a norwegian artist called Morten Abel, and they were a blast. Love them!!!!!!
I totally agree with you, it's a great live band and if you understand their lyrics it's even better. Have seen Kaizers at least 20 times here in the north and it's been just as captivating every time.
The Rammstein of Polka 👍😁 What a party!!!
Hahahahaha well said! 😂
I was there. Live at Vega in Copenhagen. Saw them live a total of nine times. Always an absolute joy and some of the most intense and fun live experiences of my concert going life.
The reason why it works so well is, that if you dive further into the back catalogue you'll discover that it's so well thought through. Well composed and musically versatile and engaging.
Had it just been a guy in a gas mask and some other guys hitting some oil barrels the joke would have gotten tired quite quick.
Love, love, love the Kaizers.
You know they are returning yes? :)
@@Fauss Yes, but so far only with shows in Norway. Hopefully they'll announce shows in Denmark afterwards.
Også mig!!! Og så har jeg hørt at de er gået sammen igen, har dog ikke hørt noget af deres nyeste. Yndlingssang er Begravelsespolka. ❤️❤️❤️. Lene61/🇩🇰

@@flemminglinnebjergrasmusse4338 They’ve started anouncing their European tour 2024. Every location aren’t announced yet, so keep an eye on their Instagram everyday. I know presale for the London-concert starts next week.
wOw!
So Cool!
Kaisers' one of Norways BEST LIVE BAND, ever!
Kaizers is/was one of the best Norwegian live bands of all time, no doubt about it. They were also awarded that prize 😉 Great to see you again, Jeff. Have a great weekend!
Thank you my friend! Have a great weekend as well!
Janove spoke norwegian to the danish audience at the end and talked about how Kaizers have played in Copenhagen many, many times. It was a totally mesmerized audience at that concert. ❤❤
Saw these goons at Vikingskipet hamar this year, it was awesome.
I've seen them live 3 times - just amazing. Easily the best concerts I've been to.
So jeallous! I wish to see them before they grow old and foggy. Only remark is my beloved wont be there. Can i even manage to experiense them live without him?... Maybe i should as a celebration to his life and what he gave me in extense of culture aswell as mudcace and pineapplepie 🤭
Kaizers Orchestra start up again fall this year. Ofc me and wife have tickets for opening concert tour. We live in their neighborhood but we have also back in the days seen them in Netherlands, Germany and Denmark and ofc multiple times in Stavanger, Bergen and Oslo. We are now passed 60 yrs old but still super fun. 😎🇧🇻
I have loved Kaizers since I was 16. This song had just been released and I absolutely hated it for the first minute or so, but then hate changed to love and it became one of the best songs ever created
Not a single cell phone in sight. Good times, good memories🖤
Fun to see. I've seen a few of your other reactions (which I like). A bit surprising then to see your other Kaizers-reaction, to "Begravelsespolka". The thing is I directed that video. That was actually their very last video before they put the band to rest ten years ago. They asked me to do that video because I had also made their very first video - for the song your reacting to here, "Kontroll på kontinentet" (from their very first album). This video, actually: th-cam.com/video/LzTi-DblTgg/w-d-xo.html They had no money at the time, and the deal was that they would give me a crate of whiskey when they had earned a little bit - a promise they kept. I will also mention that now, after a ten year break, the band is actually doing their comeback this autumn. So, maybe you now get opportunities to react to totally fresh stuff from them. Thank you for your work :) Best wishes, Eivind T.
du gjorde en utmerket jobb. Takk så mye ❤
@@bjrnarbjrnarsson5845 Kjekt å høyre - takkar :)
Helt råe begge videoene! Var store inspirasjoner fra da jeg var en ung Kaizer fan til å gå inn i bransjen :) Lager du musikkvideoer enda?
@@Biring1 Tusen takk :) Kjekt når det ein lagar har vore til inspirasjon. Lagar vel i grunn nokså sjeldan musikkvideoar, sjølv om det er noko eg liker godt. Har i grunn gått mest i dokumentarar og dokumentarseriar. Men prøver no innimellom å få til ein og annan kortfilm eller musikkvideo óg :)
Holy hell, thank you so much for the tapdance segment in that video, it was a masterpiece!! Love it when I stumble upon the artists behind stuff on TH-cam.
I was at this koncert in Vega, Copenhagen Denmark as a teenager
I always loved this song back in the day. Particularly the lyrics I thought was so cool. For anyone interested here’s a simple *google translate* translation of the lyrics:
It must be a man who can wear my hat
It must be cold that exercises my power
It should be a size 42 to go with my shoes
But he must have his own gun
And you knew what was written in the will
And you knew what was written in the will
That whoever takes care of my Constanze
get my hat, get my shoes, get my extravaganza
Take control of the continent!
And I ask to be well perfumed
I must smell good when I first go downstairs
And I myself have sent out an invitation
And I have a priest, I have bells. It is full corruption
But all this is in the will,
all this is in the will
And the one who takes care of my Constanze
get my hat, get my shoes, get my extravaganza
Take control of the continent!
I imagine it
I imagine it
I imagine it,
it creeps up on me
I imagine it
I imagine it
I imagine it,
it creeps up on me
Oh, my sister
Oh, my sister, now I know who is silent
Oh, my sister
Oh, my sister, I heard all you said by my coffin
Father Martin
Father Martin, I think this is starting to smell like petrol
And my Constanze
And my Constanze, take my hat, take my shoes, take my extravaganza
Take control of the continent!
Thanks for the lyrics! 👏👏👏
Not "now I know who is silent" it's "now I know who is the snitch"
Oh, I remember this band. They're hilarious, great party music.
The entire concert is on their channel. Viva la Vega…
This is the concert that will forever regret missing out on… the energy is out of this world! And there is so many great songs, like “170” ( my favorite) or “ container” and “Bön fra helvete “
KAIZERS!!!! Cant wait for the next Conzert
I am so so happy these guys are back.
So cool that you've start listening to Kaizers Orchestra. Jan Ove, the vokalist, gives everything in each song in a concert. And the whole band is awesome. I have always wonder how the guy with the gas mask can breathe properly during a whole concert.
So sad that they stopped playing together some years ago. Maybe they will come back one day, who knows.
They Are back. First show will be in Stavanger september 1th this year.
@@St3b3r Åå, fantastisk. Trur ikkje eg kjem til å reisa ned, sjølv om det hadde vore skikkeleg moro.
@@St3b3r No ser eg at dei skal ha 10 konsertar i Bergen i desember. Men alle er utsolgt 😒
Great reaction! Please do 'Hjerteknuser' next ❤😊
Fun fact: they made their albums into a musical
They got back after a 10 year pause. . . and it was sold out on the first day.
😃👏👏👏
@@StrateleStudios I wish I could find some songs with texts to read, since just about all their songs are concept songs with a story to tell. This one is about a mob boss in eastern europe after world war 2 (I believe), that fakes his own death to find out whom in his inner circle is the snitch. For the life of me, I can't really figure out if he lived or if they burned him at the end.
so much fun and full of life!
I love the rhythm in Janove's (singer) speech when he begins introducing Rune (drummer) around 04:40
We were actually at Vega Copenhagen when they did the Live at Vega DvD❤️😎🇧🇻
👍🏼🇳🇴🇩🇰🎶😎
Awesome that you revisit Kaizers Orchestra. They are absolutely amazing.
The oil barrels on stage are used as instruments in some of their songs - I would definitely recommend that you also check out their song "170" from the same concert, where you can see some barrel action.
Very cool! 👏👏👏
@@StrateleStudios Best barrel action contender is Bøn Frå Helvete (also Live at Vega). Such a fun song. Also featuring car rims and crowd bars 😄.
That was just too much fun, thank you for reacting to it. I must admit, sadly, that I had heard of them but never gave them a listen. I know………my bad! 😊
good work, keep it up! and also, kaiiiiiizeeeeeeerrrr
Great reaction 🤩🇳🇴
Thank you my friend! 😊😊😊
@@StrateleStudios 😍
Amazing!!!! I love this band. I saw them live at a festival called Smukfest in a little Village called Skanderborg, close to where I was born in Denmark. Hugs from Denmark. Lene61/🇩🇰 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Lene. This band is so amazing and I’d love to see them live. I heard they recently got back together so maybe I will get a chance to.
@@StrateleStudios yes I read that too not a long time ago. I havn´t heard any of their new stuff yet, but i definately am going to. It can impossibly be mainstream music. I love music with a Twist. And I just see that you have reactet to Hunger by Ren. Will go to watch it right now. 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️. Lene61/🇩🇰
@@lenechristiansen2663 👏🥳❤️
❤❤❤❤❤
going to see them in march, they are from my hometown so this is nostalgic
I've seen Kaizers several times live in my student times. They were HUGE in Norway at the turn of the millennium.
Every consert ended up with all of the crowd going crazy.
For some oil barrel action, check out "Bøn fra helvete" (prayer from hell). It is on the same album. The barrels isn't just props😊
PS: Lyric wise it doesn't make much sense in Norwegian either😂
That's a part of the fun of kaizers.
Hahahaha 👏👏👏
I know that venue! It's the student union concert hall in Stavanger, and it was originally a 1930's movie theater.
Crazy 😂❤😂
he he😂 more music from the west coast of Norway 🤗👍 they are fantastic - do you understand anything? This is in Rogaland dialect
This is probably the most broken band (in a POSITIVE way) that Norway has ever produced. I do have difficulties undestanding the dialect, though. The Stavanger dialect is sexy, but insanely hard to understand for us from the eastern side... But damn, ALL their songs and albums are effing BONKERS! I love them!
This venue looks like Vega in Copenhagen, Denmark, where I did a support gig with King's X in the mid 90'es. Tell me if I'm wrong.
@@larseikind666 - indeed, it's (Store) Vega in Copenhagen. They played two nights that year, and recorded the second night. Talked to Janove after that show, and asked him if they were recording the whole tour for a Maestro tour DVD or something - "Nope, just this concert, really". So why Vega? He said the reason was simply that it was the best venue they'd ever played (I'm sure he meant outside of Norway 😉). Indeed, to this day, Kaizers Orchestra is the band that has - by far - had the most gigs at Vega. They'd already played there 5 times before the 2005 concerts.
I believe this is from Folken in Stavanger. The bands home town. Kaizers exploded in the early 00s and were very different from all other norwegian bands at the time.
Vega, Copenhagen.
Hi Jeff. Great reaction. I'm sorry i can't find your reaction on the funeral polka song. Where do ii find it? One of my favorite songs.
It got blocked on TH-cam so I had to put it on Patreon. Here’s the link;

Ok. Thanks 😊
The othwr big Norwegian live band is Katzenjammerz - a girl band. A must to see and react to.
I wish you'd had subtitles for this. The lyrics are a large part of the thing with this band. (And it's kinda weird Jan-Ove is doing parts of the inbetween-banter in English, since this is recorded in Denmark, and his Norwegian dialect is almost closer to Danish than to regular middle-of-the-road Norwegian.)
...and this is without even understanding the lyrics and half the presentations :D At 4:43 he approximately goes "On the drums, thingamabobs and nobbins, tins, cans and buckets and a big - red - ashtray..."
Some bands cross the language barrier. Like Rammstein, Laibach and Kaizers :)
Norwegian audiences are usually super not engaged and just standing there nodding their heads a bit. Maybe singing one or two lines or the refrain from a song. Unless maybe your a band like Kvelertak. I am Norwegian and I hate that concert culture. I like to mosh and to be there in the moment whenever I watch a band live. This band used to make the crowd go WILD. People sang all the lyrics back at the band. They would jump around and go crazy. I LOVED that. I have seen them maybe 6 times and the only concert that was a let down was at Roskilde Festivalen in Danmark because it was a early show and people did not just get the vibe at all. The band is going to make a comeback now after a 10 year hiatus with new music, and their first live show is supposed to be in September 2023. I am so excited to see and hear what the band is going to sound like now
You fit right in in the US concerts. I’ve been in and seen many mosh pits in my days. Hahaha👏👏👏🫶
@@StrateleStudios I was actually at their only US show ever, inside the Metropolitan Museum of art in NYC. They were holding back tears seeing the entire american crowd singing every word back at them, they weren't expecting even a fraction of that. It was incredible.
I went to Bertine Zetlitz scene in Stavanger Norway this Wednesday and HOLEY F**CK what a comeback. They have not lost a beat in these 10 years let me tell you that! Incredible crowd control and stage presence!
I'm guessing when you say "early show" you mean "early in the day" - meaning the Roskilde Festival concerts in 2006 or 2011? Yeah, Orange Stage in the afternoon isn't exactly the perfect setting for Kaizers. 🙂 Their concerts at Yellow and Arena in 2002 and 2003, however, were the best I've ever seen them (out of around 15 concerts) in terms of insane energy. The 2002 concert lured around 14000 people to visit Yellow - a stage intended for (at that time) 4000 people including outside areas. Getting to the next concert after Kaizers were done was like solving an escape room, because no-one there seemed to be able to figure out what direction to walk to get out of the jumbled mess of people. 🤣 I've also never seen Arena quite as wild at 2-4 a.m. as in 2003. 😁
They're not my all time favourite band (even though I love them), but they might be the best live act I've ever seen. Frank Zappa did probably beat them by a hairline or two, but the sheer energy of Kaizers live was pretty much incomparable to anything else. (But why on earth is Janove speaking English to the audience in Copenhagen? His Norwegian dialect is closer to Danish than to Norwegian, for chrissakes!)
Best reaction ever! But not as great as me and mine (for never) Mathias... He is mine forever "Hjerteknuser"
🙂
One must be a man to wear my hat
One must be cold-hearted to obtain my power
One must be a size 42 to wear my shoes
But he has to have his own pistol
Because you know what's stated in the will
And you know what's stated in the will
That the one who takes care of my Constanze
Gets my hat, gets my shoes, gets my extravaganza
Take control over the continent
And I ask to be well perfumed
I want to smell good when I finally go down
And I have sent out invitations myself
And I have a priest, a bell-ringer, it's total corruption
But all of this is stated in the will
All of this is stated in the will
And the one who takes care of my Constanze
Gets my hat, gets my shoes, gets my extravaganza
Take control over the continent
I see it before me, crawling towards me
See it before me, crawling towards me
Oh, my sister, oh, my sister, now I know who's the rat
Oh, my sister, oh, my sister, I heard everything you said by my coffin
Oh, Father Martin, oh, Father Martin, this is beginning to reek of gasoline
Oh, my Constanze, my Constanze, take my hat, take my shoes, take my extravaganza
where is the other Kaizers video? i tried to find it, but no lock.

The funniest concert with Kaizers I've seen, and I've seen many, was when they shared the stage with DumDum Boys in Molde, and Dum Dum were stupid enough to ask to play last because they were, after all, the most meritorious band...
Yes, it went as expected. Kaizers were tame to be Kaizers, but you don't want to go on stage after these guys, with malted oil drums and an audience bordering on exhaustion.
DumDum has held many good concerts in its time, but there it was just embarrassing. You can not follow something like this.
Omg 😂🤣😂 man oh man
