![[Reaction] Nanowar of Steel - Valhalleluja (Great Odin's Raven This Was Awesome)](/img/n.gif)
Finally someone that understood the Hebrew part, I have seen alot reactions to this song and nobody got iton there oun so well done!
(Love from Israel!)
hey ever hear of a band called orphaned land?
@@metalmike3780 no, but I think I understand the theme already.
I'll check them out
@@user-nb7ts1qv5j deff, its a metal band from Israel
I held it together right to the shema yggdrasil.. that cracked me up
Just a note though - they didn't change it from "Yahweh" to "Odinai", but from "Adonai" to "Odinai".
We thank Odin for your reaction! We're glad you had fun watching the video 😄
Voi siete un tesoro nazionale😂🤟
Possibile che vi trovo sotto ogni video di reazione? Che dedizione signori
Siete una gruppo fenomenale!!! C***o! SI!!!! Medaglie subito... Non ve le hanno ancora consegnate????
Vin and Sori *starts typing Sasha Grey*
Me: OH NO
Next: Vin and Sori react to Sasha Grey videos.
They are Italians and they are the Weird Al Yankovic of the European metal scene. Their lyrics are intelligent, profound and hilarious. The idea is that they are mocking the overly seriousness with which the European bands are more or less taking themselves. Nanowar of Steel are ambivalent in this regard because their style is actually traditional power metal. Musically their style is a 100% tribute to the style but lyrically is a parody. If you hear their song “Norwegian reggaeton”, they are parodying the Nordic black metal scene with a vanilla reggaeton, that has references to everything, including the Beatles. They are amazing. Basically not the heroes we need, but the heroes we deserve. No one is safe with their habit of picking go fun or everything
The band itself, yes. I guess what confused them was maybe Thomas Winkler aka Angus McFife. He's actually Swiss and because IKEA was involved and many U.S. citizens are confused about Switzerland and Sweden (not the same, not at all ;) ) that's maybe why they brought up all the countries.
14:00 "Google Sasha Gray bedframe…"
Me: this is not gonna end well…
I love how it actually did end well and they got their own innocent story of the $1400 bed.
@@malte54 yeah, I wasn't expecting that. 😳
@@malte54 At some point, they'll figure out to drop the 'bedframe' part in the google search... 🤭
I like the part when he says "lirically is kicking ass". And her: "look, they have good prices!" . LOOL.
The prayer is changed from "Adonai elohenu" to "Odinai elohenu", Adonai being 'Lord' (whereas Yahweh is the name of god). In "Shema Yggdrasil" instead of "Shema Israel", Yggdrasil is the sacred world-tree of the norse mythology. When it says "FALEGN-AMEN" it's a wordplay from italian ("falegname" means carpenter, like Jesus). Systembolaget is the swedish government-owned chain of shops with a monopoly on selling spirits. The "horse meatballs" mentioned refer to the fact that IKEA has restaurants inside their stores where you can eat these meatballs that apparently everybody loves, but a couple of years ago in an IKEA store an accident happened where some horse meat had ended up being used for the meatballs, which made the news. Sasha Grey is a former pornstar. Nanowar of Steel were originally named Nanowar as a parody of Manowar, then when Rhapsody changed their name to Rhapsody of Fire for copyright reasons, Nanowar changed to Nanowar of Steel. You should react to their "And then I noticed that she was a gargoyle"!
Should have read this before posting my comment. :D
An outstanding breakdown of the lyrics! 👌👏👏👏
Great breakdown indeed! I don't think you missed anything, and I definitely second "And then I noticed she was a gargoyle" for the next reaction.
If the "of Steel" addition isn't a nod of the hat to the band Steel Panther ... that's definitely a missed opportunity & a shame.
@@zyrphath They still made a song with Michael Starr from Steel Panther, check "Uranus" :D
Man, u need watch "NANOWAR OF STEEL - NORWEGGIAN REGGAETON!!!
YES!!!! the best and funniest - in particular for people who know a little bit about black metal
It's a good thing they already know a lot about Black metal
@@carlosmrergis921 that's exactly why I'd love them to react to this piece :-)
Great song. The line with the burning churches is hilarious.
@@nietzscheente1271 yeah, not to mention the Burzum/Daddy Yankee reference... or the whales... 😅
I'll admit, I was expecting completely different results when you googled Sasha Grey
Sasha Grey is an amazing author. I’ve read all her books, my favorite was the “String Theory and the 11 Dimensions”.
Obviously.
well duh, Dr. Grey made it her own challenge in life to dive into every mystery and fill certain holes!
She was part in Uranus song of Nanowar to explain black hole theories
I am swede and laughng my ass off watching this song.
🤪
The caption bellow the official video says everything you need to know about this track. Also they are Italian.
"Great literature has always been a source of inspiration for heavy metal bands.
J.R.R. Tolkien for Blind Guardian, H.P. Lovecraft for Cradle of Filth, The Holy Bible for Stryper and now The IKEA Catalog for Nanowar Of Steel" 🤣😂 Geniuses 👏👏
Haha, Vin is smooth as ususal, Sasha Grey, who is that? Sure Vin, sure... 😉
Concerning the raping and pillaging, I'm pretty sure they're simply referencing Viking culture as Vin said. There were, in fact Swedish Vikings, and IKEA is a Swedish company. Swedish Vikings called, "Rus" settled a little place called Russia today! And, as a side note, the wife was gesturing to a box which they zoom in on with an instruction booklet labeled "Kallax", which is an IKEA shelf unit. That's what the dude is getting depressed about, as she is saying that it needed to be put together.
The Rus actually settled in Kiev- modern day Ukraine- hence they were know as the Kievan Rus.
@@Greatkingrat88 While you're certainly not wrong, about the "Kievan Rus," here are Encyclopedia Britanica and Wikipedia giving relevant Swedish/Scandinavian & Slavic specifics on the Rus which I was going off of in my comment:
Encyclopedia Britanica, "Sweden/The-Viking-Age":
"Swedish peasant chieftains secured a firm foothold in what is now western Russia and Ukraine and ruthlessly exploited the Slav population. From their strongholds, which included the river towns of Novgorod and Kiev, they controlled the trade routes along the Dnieper to the Black Sea and Constantinople (now Istanbul) and along the Volga to the Caspian Sea and the East."
Wikipedia entry on the Rus ("Rus' people[History]"):
"Having settled Aldeigja (Ladoga) in the 750s, Scandinavian colonists played an important role in the early ethnogenesis of the Rus' people, and in the formation of the Rusʹ Khaganate. The Varangians (Varyags, in Old East Slavic) are first mentioned by the Primary Chronicle as having exacted tribute from the Slavic and Finnic tribes in 859...
The Varangians being first mentioned in the Primary Chronicle suggests that the term Rus' was used to denote Scandinavians until it became firmly associated with the now extensively Slavicised elite of Kievan Rus'. At that point, the new term Varangian was increasingly preferred to name the Scandinavians, probably mostly from what is currently Sweden, plying the river routes between the Baltic and the Black and Caspian Seas."
@@Green-LyonThe point is, they're not really the first russians, although the word "russian" definitely comes from them.
@@Greatkingrat88 You're right. They are not the first Russians.
Too bad you can’t order Sasha Grey at Ikeas 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Hebrew lines in this song are fucking genius. If you look beyond the metal/gospel fun cross over, this song is so fun in so many ways.
What are the Hebrew lines in English? Do you know?
@@andybrooks6365 I don't by heart. But Vin explains it in the video, if I recall correctly.
Yggdrasil is the "life tree" in Norse mythology. From its branches you find nine worlds. One of the is the world of the Gods (Asgård), another one is the world of mortals (Midgård). There is also Jotunheim, which is the world of the giants (which is what Thor usually kills with his hammer, Mjölnir). More details can be found here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yggdrasil
Regarding the Hebrew words, Vin explains it just after 9:05 in the video.
Who doesn't know IKEA? And Vin you know who Sasha is...
Sasha grey is an adult actress.
i thought she was from 50 shades of grey.
I think Vin knew, when he was telling Sori the name, he almost said "her" name, but switched it to it's name. Also refused to look it up on his screen. I think Vinny knew what was up ;)
@@Stu-Bo You may be onto something... 😅
@@Stu-Bo It looks to me like they started typing in Sasha Grey alone, but that just gives a name with some girl's face in the image (to anyone without without a clue, that is, and you definitely get a bit more info if you scroll down a bit among the results), and I think that's why they accidently refer to "it" as "her".
I'd loved to see them figuring it out eventually, but I guess we can't have all the fun in one video. :)
Now she is a 'serious' actress.
YES! The Italian pride has finally came here too! I love you guys!
"Oh wow that's good prices" *Video sponsored by IKEA*
Unfortunately the quality is as low as the prices...
"Falegn-amen" is a play on words in italian. Falegname is the word for "carpenter" :D
They are from my home city of Rome, Italy.
Trading Places is a Christmas movie only for us in Italy ;)
@@alessandrop.5131 Yes, which is something SO STRANGE. But without "trading places" on TV, it's not christmas here. :D
@@TheMarcodiator passo all'italiano, credo che sia diventato un film natalizio perchè ambientato a Natale; paradossale perchè quando è stato lanciato ad Agosto, quindi come film estivo.
@@alessandrop.5131 Giusto, ma strano che proprio quel film americano "estivo" sia diventato una "tradizione" italiana hehe
Starts googling Sasha Grey. Finds furniture
Google safe search on, I guess
I couldn't hit play fast enough when I saw that it was Nanowar of Steel -- Valhalleluja!! ... You need to do Norwegian Reggaeton and one that no one has done a reaction to, Heavy Metal Kibbles!! Enjoy your Nanowar journey!!
Coming up in a month or so...
They also need to watch call of cthulhu
Sori's innocence is so pure and adorable lol
I love this song. Starts as a Gospel worship music parody and then turns into an IKEA commercial during the last half. It's brilliant. SNL should hire these guys as writers because they are funnier than anything they had on that show since 2000. React to their song "Norwegian Reggaeton" next.
You guys looking for Sasha Grey on Ikea catalogue just got me in stitches ;-)
Yggdrasil is the World Tree in norse mythology😉
Sori nailed it, the song is split into old testament and new testament, hence going form violent and brutal to all love and happy.
Nanowar of steel is actually an Italian band. Another great song by them is norwegian reggaeton.
One of the best Italian band. Awsome. Greetings from Sweden.
And then i noticed she was a gargoyle is very good too
Thomas Winkler aka Angus McFife from Gloryhammer is from Switzerland
USE TH-cam SUBTITLES
BEST PARTS ARE IN SPANISH
They poked fun at several religious traditions, so Christianity isn't singled out.
The singer who played Odin is the lead singer of Gloryhammer. You should check them out as well.
Praise Angus, best odin ever!
the funny part is i was raised very old school presbyterian , i remember hearing christmas is pagan ,so hey they are just putting the paganism back in Christmas.And my dear Sori they were making the point that Santa Claus is Odin,because allot of santa is taken from Odin.
Yule is the Pagan celebration appropriated by Christmas.
thank you i know that already ,lol have a good holiday
It is amazing how far has this band brought their concept.
This is how Sori finds Ikea? Wow.
Odin works in mysterious ways
Odin needs to work harder on his world conquering if there are still people who don't know of IKEA
You really shouldn't drink when listening to a Nanowar of Steel song. Your electronic devices will thank you for that 😉
funny how she laughed and smiled when the good shit went down!!
S A S H A G R E Y B E D F R A M E
Best ITALIAN Band at the Moment. You just scratched the Peak of a huuuuuge Mountain of Songs & Videos....but THIS one is definatly their Best.....GOSPEL METAL OBAY ODIN,THE IKEA GOD !!!
I'm a Christian as well, and I love that you guys can take the tongue in cheek glory of this song. As a praise band musician, I love to play uptempo music like this. I wrote a punk version of "Victory in Jesus" that we play on the reg that gets our congregation moving more than anything else. So much fun. They don't know I ripped off the chord progression from a Conflict song.
Actually Nomandy was a Norse colony on French soil (just like Dublin) and the Norman dukes were of norse descent
As was York, originally named Yorvik.
Basically everything written in capital letters is an IKEA furniture line. The lines they sing after that in the lyrics, are basically descriptions of said furniture.
I think the whole plundering lines are both what the Vikings did, and is allegory for the old testament. The lines about now being a carpenter are allegory for the new testament, plus it fits well with the whole IKEA slant to the song.
It's all very intelligently written, because a lot of the lyrics make sense on multiple levels and in multiple ways.
Ps.
Nisa grey is the color you can buy some furniture in and Sasha Grey is a well known actrice(in a specific field which you can't name in the comments here).
We gotta be able to laugh at ourselves. Effin glorious fun.
Nanowar of Steel deserve to have a free life supply of IKEA products, mark my words
A lot of those Swedish names in the song are names of Ikea furniture models. Funny stuff.
Yggdrasil is the tree that holds the 9 worlds in Norse mythology
Phew, that whole Googling "Sasha Grey bed frame" could've been disastrous lol.
...But, it also could've been extremely entertaining.
So, I'm giving this reaction a 7/10 rating, because it didn't live up to its full potential lmao.
It's satire, but it's very telling about the anachronistic syncretism and reduction of both into spokesmen for materialism.
As long as Mammon is at the head of the pantheon, it doesn't matter who is under him.
I just find the idea that Odin would just be Amon Amarth's guitar tech hilarious.
Oh yeah Nanowar, orgoglio metal italiano :D Greetings from Italy guys!
They're a Italian Band and Ikea is really big in Europe
Nanowar is awesome and funny , ahaha Sasha Grey , i lost it when Sori started search
AHAHAHAHAH As an Italian seeing this here is freaking hilarious
These guys are boss level jokers and trolls. Their own TH-cam channel has Vevo in the title and at the time people were afraid to react to this because of copyright strikes Vevo does, it was just a big joke for them. They actually had to go to reaction channels to explain the joke.
They even have a video of IKEA react to this video and it's just a bunch of furniture with a laptop on it playing this song, just to see how many views it got.🤘🤘
Absolute legends of comedy. Nanowar of Steel is even a tongue in cheek reference to their fellow Italian power metal freinds Rhapsody Of Fire.
Every song is gold! Also featuring guests, this one
The glorious Angus Mcfife.( not his real name, his character in Gloryhammer).
They did a tour of IKEA stores, and didn't tell IKEA they were doing it.
I just love the Pippi Longstocking wig the guitarists wear.
The old religions celebration of the winter solstice is the reason christmas is placed in december. 'cause there's no shepherds out in the fields in december in the middle east, so jesus couldn't be born in december.
Never heard of IKEA??? What? That's possible?
Best Christmas song ever! I love this band.
A Great BAnd my favourite Nanowar !!
Ygdrasill is the World tree in the Nordic saga and sytembolage is a chain of liquor stores in Sweden.
next Nanowar of steel song : Barbie MILF Princess of the twillight
The "Christian Christmas" Sori saw was a feast and a decorated tree, both traditions taken directly from Jul, which I take a subtle jab at how modern Christmas traditions are all just cobbled together from other cultures.
I physically recoiled when Vin said "just google Sasha Grey".
Lmao Sori got the joke about Sasha Grey 🤣🤣🤣
Everyone in nanowar is a badass, but the bass player is an astrophysics at the university of Jerusalem, and he speaks a dozen of languages. I'm pretty sure he's the one behind the hebrew lyrics^^
Also, your interpretation of old vs new testament was not the originally intended, but Nanowar approved in from another reaction video^^
The end of the video is her pointing at a yet unassembled piece of Ikea furniture and I take her gesturing to mean "Well, will you get on with putting it together?!" which would explain his look of desperation. :)
Making Furniture Great Again!!! 🤣
IKEA is huge in europe. Close to every household has at least one item from them. Every IKEA furniture has a swedish name. And in europe many people know at least a few IKEA products by those names. Some people are so obsessed with this brand that you could say it is a religion by itself :-).
Just saw this. You two are great! Love your laugh.
Yes, also in old testament there was lots of pillaging and raping and torturing and stuff. You are completely right, sister. I appreciate how many details you have got in this reaction!
They are the proud of italian music,great musicians too and very funny,don’t mess with them.😉
This is what I'm talking about! Thank you guys for the smiles and wholesome reaction! Nanowar of Steel is incredible!
Azerbaijan- yup- I went there for work a few years back and when I got back- none of my friends knew where it was.
I got to help set up the Formula 1 race in Baku.
love his expression at the end, oh lord i have to put this together.
have experience.
I literally watched this on my tv which stands on the Bestå TV bench. All the names are products of IKEA.
You guys totally get this song. At least one of you does lol. Great reaction!!
Nanowar of Steel is named after Italian huge success metal band Rhapsody (who renamed theirselves Rhapsody of Fire) ヅ
It was something special! Saha Grey in IKEA, lol🤣
Sasha Gray is a great magician, she loves making great things disappear better than David Copperfield.
I was waiting to see how Sori was going to react to Sasha Grey
LOL The Sasha Grey thing just kept getting funnier, but when it got to "look for Sasha Grey bed", I couldn't contain myself. How did they not find out who she is throughout this? The song was funny, but this reaction was classic.
They must have a very, very efficient safe-search option
They were searching that name/term on the ikea website, not on google. Would’ve gotten a different reaction otherwise
IKEA sells furniture which you have to build yourself. Each piece comes with a booklet with instructions on how to build it. The guy was holding a book on how to build an IKEA-brand Viking ship. The words were IKEA furniture brands. The woman at the end of the video was showing the guy a piece of furniture in its original packaging, waiting for him to build. Sasha Grey is a famous pornstar. The European regions they mention were where the Vikings basically raided or lived, and the stuff they were praising about was usually what happened when a village was raided. Someone mentioned that Nicaragua and Azerbaijan were theorized Viking landing sites. Yggdrasill is the world tree from Viking mythology.
God Bless toy guys and merry Christmas! Love from Norway!
I think that in the middle of the song there was a pat that sounded exactly like a PowerWolf track. The music and vocal line. Must be a mash-up piece included - i guess its fun for such a funny song )
When they say names in TOTAL CAPITALS are exactly names of products from IKEA catalog
The funniest thing I've seen all week is 2 people looking for Sasha Grey Bed Frame and concluding it's an expensive brand. From what I gather it's not. In that industry when they come in black it devalues the rest of the hardware.
Oh wow, a Valhalleluja reviewer that understands Hebrew. Thumbs up for doing your homework!
Swiss and Swedish are not the same ......the Band is Italian. .. ikea is Swedish.
All I gotta say is thankyou Daniel
So much blasphemy, I love it 😂
Al the end of the song they sing falegn-amen and you have to know that falegname is the translation of carpenter in italian. Greetings from Italy and Merry Viking Christmas to everybody!
As an atheist I think it's freaking great! Religious stuff to me is all hilarious, including stuff about atheism. I just have fun with all of the songs no matter what.
Late but people are missing this, with Besta TV and others, they are simply reading The Book.
Don't mess with IKEA!!! as a kid (9-10 years old) i legit said, after having been in IKEA, and eaten in their restaurant also: "Mom, if there's an IKEA in heaven, then i wouldn't mind dying now" xD
Love you dudes, Yah gotta do "NANOWAR OF STEEL - NORWEGGIAN REGGAETON!!! Yggdrasil is the tree of the world in norse viking time religion. God Jul from Sweden.
Yygdrasil is the "one tree" or the world tree that Odin sacrificed himself on ....
Merry Christmas, y’all! 🎄
I think what you miss is how important IKEA is to Sweden. It is their most famous export. The Old Testament-New Testament link is interesting, but they are really just making fun of the fact that Sweden has gone from being known for Vikings to being known for a maker of furniture that you assemble yourself. Even the list of places they sing about includes Normandy, which was granted by the French to a group of Vikings to stop then from raiding France. The Normans who took over England were descended from Vikings. That is why the early Norman kings (the Plantagenets) were blond.
I loved the reaction! I hope you will also have a look to "and then I noticed that she was a gargoyle". Nanowar of Steel are great!
Whoosh!
always anowar fan, now am also nanowar of steel fan..... so fun.
