This song was made as a tribute to all the fans both new & old who made my Viking/Nordic-themed songs so successful over the last couple of years. Thank you all for the love & support you've shown to me and the Miracle Of Sound project! I'm taking a little break from Nordic/Viking songs for a little while after this , as I don't want to milk it to death & get burned out on it, but I'm sure I will return later at some point (and an alternative version of this song IS coming too!) 😉 I'll be making some Irish/Celtic themed music next. Also special thanks to Thor, Espen, Marius and the Norwegian viking crew for the awesome video footage. Don't forget to share with a friend if you enjoyed the song! Big luv and SKÅL! Gav
When my dad turned 70, I took him into a restaurant with a viking theme and gave him a little speech based on this song. Told him about how a great song tells about men of war and men of care and how he has always been the best and a totally man of care by taking care of me every second in my life. A big guy with a a beard who looks like a retired viking burst into tears by being so touched.
@@ammaar666 (EDIT: The comment that prompted this reply has since been deleted) What joy do you get from dumping on someone's good memories of their dad? It's cruel and it's petty. Knock it off.
My dad crossed the rainbow bridge tonight. (After a long battle with cancer) I feel that this song, along with the toast I have now given him, is a fitting farewell. Skål 🍻 dad! May you find peace and comfort in the mighty halls ❤
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. I feel for you. I wish your strength for the hard time to come (my own experience). Be proud and thankful to have had such a father. May he now rest in peace. 🙏
Currently going through the worst mental health crisis of my life and since I was diagnosed with depression 20 years ago that's saying a lot, but your music has a way of hitting on a level that eases some of the noise in my head. So I wanted to thank you ❤
These are dark times and depression suffocates us. 2025 is coming and it will be more difficult than ever, but we have to grit our teeth and move forward because if everything changes we either become extinct or we have hit rock bottom and we can only go back up. I had my first acute depression when I was twenty and I'm now 53, kept alive by music.
Awakes something in you, doesn't it? A draw to the Viking life - the friends, the travel, the roast meat, the mead, even the fighting. An age of way less people, so wild animals were more abundant and war was (overall) less destructive, too.
If you want viking songs, listen to Skalti, Wardruna or Heilung for example. Here we have a song about viking, not the same ;) (But still a great song :p )

Krásné děkuji 🥰 Vám všem kteří se podíleli ❤❤❤jde mi to do duše a ❤️ děkuji a přeji Vám všem hodně zdraví a pro nás hodně krásných písní a hudby 🥰 děkuji a zdravím z české republiky 🍀👏❤
As a swede with a interest in the viking era your songs are a great tribute to the rich nordic history. And as a gamer i realy like your game themed music as well.
Most songs describe the woes of being alone and focusing on a great battle. But I adore how this one is all about community, about there being room for everyone at the table, about fighting the battles together. As someone who has felt deeply alone and estranged in the world, I long for connectedness such as this; with people who speak my language, long to live in the fantasy world I do, and are on the same path as I am. May God bless me with such a welcoming tribe one day. Also loved “men of war and men of care, maidens fierce and maidens faire” outlining the amazing qualities that both men and women can possess. Very well done, as always.
May Odin bless you with such a welcoming tribe some day. I am nearly ready to start building a sustainable Norse Pagan 'Viking' village in the midwest United States. Will need like-minded people to join the clan.
"Men of war and men of care" now that's something many young men need to hear. For a man can be both strong and caring, and is also deserving to be protected and loved in turn. Men and women are better and stronger when standing together as equals. We shouldn't be trying to drag one another down...
I found this song yesterday. I think I've listened to it over 40 times now. It's just too good. I didn't think valhalla calling could be surpassed, but this one just did it for me. Miracle of sound has done it again. You guys are the best.
I like how this song is powerful while also being so fun and welcoming! There's a horn of mead and room at the table not just for men of war, but also men of care, and maidens both fierce and fair!
Hi, my name Anja and I live in Iceland 6 months, I from Ukraine and go in Icelandic school 4 months, learning your language and it's so beautiful chantry. I love you Iceland
I love the lines "Men of War and men of care, maidens fierce and maidens fair", too many people focus on the "warrior" aspect of medieval Scandinavian culture when there were more craftsfolk, farmers, merchants, etc than there were warriors, and the call of SKOL is for all of them ❤
It wasnt even that war-like of a culture, vikings, at most were raiders. They were mostly peacefull folks with like you said farmers, fisherman and merchants. Just like every culture, they partook in war and raiding, but not like you see in civilizations like celts, turks, mongols or even Zulus.
Norse culutre and Germanic culture for that matter put a lot off value on strength, so also on warriors in a way, you are right though. Nowadays we still see a lot of germanic's dominating strength based sports which is pretty cool.
This song played as I headed to the store for milk. By the time I returned, I had raided the dairy section, claimed it as my own, and declared myself the Milk Jarl. We now have enough milk to last a lifetime!
Used to be like this in a few places. If someone showed up at your door or village in general then it was common practice to give them food, drink and some times even a warm place to sleep
This song is going to be the first toast song on our pagan/nature wedding in August 2024. We are so in love with it! Thank you for it! It is absolutely amazing ❤
As a man of heavy irish norse and Germanic decent i appreciate this song more then you could ever know it means alot for my ancestors culture to be honored by you. So to you my friend SKAL
As an Italian descended from Roman warriors I hope the Vikings awaken in Sweden as strong as they were centuries ago and as they are still strong in Viking land Denmark 🦉👍
Neskutočne chytľavá skladba,tie mužské hlasy..klip, jednoducho niečo úžasné!! Viking skladba..a hlavne Skál 🍻 ďakujem za túto úžasnú skladbu,na prvý raz som sa zamiloval ❤️🇸🇰
I´ve acutally been to that Viking village in 2019. Seeing it again while listening to this amazing song is actually pretty amazing. Now i wanna visit it again and listen to "SKAL!" while wandering around. ☺
I'm not your typical fan, I'm 67 years old middle class, middle England but I just love what you do. Love your Gaellic influences. So descriptive, so evocative.
loved this song so much i had it play at my wedding, even gave drinking horns as gifts to those that were there for us as our main people at the wedding. thanks for such a great song i love your music.
I think I just fell in love!! "Men of war and men of care, Maidens fierce and maidens fair"??!!! Where do you ever hear that??? ❤❤❤ Also I think to me it's probably the perfect LARP song cause that's basically what it feels like when you return to your camp after battle and sit down around the fire pit for dinner with your brothers and sisters in arms!! ❤
My fiance and I are plannig a wedding that is viking themed to celebrate our heritage. I can ensure you this song will be played at our wedding in some capacity. I believe honestly this would make an amazing first first dance song possibly! Thank you for this!
❤❤❤❤ BEAUTIFUL! Strongest and ...I'm still going to watch the GAME OF THRONES SAGA!!! A FAN OF VIKINGS MUSIC FROM BRAZIL FOR YOU BEAUTIFUL SINGERS AND BEAUTIFUL VOICES!!! I GOT CHILLS
Gavin, This song... it is getting me through a time of grief... i lost a friend recently, and he was an asatru. he would have loved this song to be sung at his wake... and indeed it will be. thank you for making this song of life, of love, and of joy... he is no longer in pain, and yet i miss him so much :'(
Thank y’all for mentioning men of care and maidens fierce, it feels like songs of this type I stumble upon only ever have men of war and fair maidens for them
@@natsudragneel231 Participation of women in warfare in humanity's history is abundent and documented, at least enough to be mentioned in a XXIst century song.
@@natsudragneel231 That's only scratching the surface, women not taking part in warfare is only relatively recent. You should look up the Onna-Bugeisha, the female samurai warriors of Japan who made use of polearms.
I wish the Thor movies collaborated with miracle sound to have the rich nordic music be a part of the ethos of Valhalla in the cinematic universe. Can you imagine Thor entering singing this with his Asgardian brethren. Perfection.
Thank you! I am just having fun making these songs, I don't intend them to be super authentic. I recommend Wardruna if you want to hear real authentic Nordic folk! They are wonderful
Great songs as always Gav. Your lower register voice fits really well with the thunderous percussion and the warlike theme of Viking songs. Another one to add to my Spotify list and raise a drinking horn to!
Last time i heard "Raise your horns" in a metal song, it was from a very viking band and it was an absolute banger. This time is no different, amazing song !
You are one of the few musicians that i literally love every piece you have made/been in volved in. You are incredibly talented and every song you produce is dripping with your tangible passion for what you do. Thank you Gavin.
I'm working out in the mountains, is icy cold and I'm doing so in a T-shirt and sweat pants. The main goal is to get warm due to my exercise and is working. My main motivation these songs. I call it "Viking training".
I saw the lion king musical once live and it is still the best play of any kind I have personally seen. I am not one to commonly watch plays, but the show was finominal. Now TH-cam brings this one back to my feed, Peter Hollens is always great.
What a banger! The welcoming nature reflects how they would include people from many ethnic and religious backgrounds in their settlement and traded with many cultures! A Nordic song that won't be misinterpreted!
It's no sterotype Vikings burned and looted all the churches and monasteries in the north of England. Ancient books were burned, slaves taken, women raped. Farms put to the torch, And executions called the blood eagle. Where you would be put upright on a cross and your lungs opened from the back, would be draped over your shoulders. It took a long time to die. King Harold annihilated a viking army at Stamford bridge, before Marching 200 miles south in 6 days, to confront William the conquerers army at Hastings.
@@novustalks7525the _vikings_ as such may have been, but they were no more similar to the norse folk "at home" as the pirates were to the British or Spanish a few centuries later. And even the Viking pirates and raiders settled down to trade after a while
As not just a Norse Pagan, but also as a Viking Age re-enactor, I just wanna say that this song is one of the best viking-themed songs I've heard in years. Making me want to get some of my friends together and down a few horns of mead/beer, keep up the awesome work!!!

A epic masterpiece.. 10/10
As a swede.. I must yell this out:
SKÅL!!!.
Skal!!! brother.
Hail to Odin!!!
SKÅL Hail Òdinn
cringe
Well.. you are the only one that feels like that.. sad to hear it.
Last time i heard "Raise your horns" in a metal song, it was from a very viking band and it was an absolute banger.
This time is no different, amazing song !
Lovely song. Vikings were brave and explores. Respect to those men and women from Finland.
Ur ethnicity is Baltic Finnish right
@@sahajdeep_sandhu What is wrong with you? No.
Try again.
@@sahajdeep_sandhu you are idi0t right?
@@lintu25Dont be mad, i say Skål from Norway 🍻🇧🇻💖
You are one of the few musicians that i literally love every piece you have made/been in volved in. You are incredibly talented and every song you produce is dripping with your tangible passion for what you do. Thank you Gavin.
If this is your last Nordic song for a while you're going out on a hell of a high.
I'm working out in the mountains, is icy cold and I'm doing so in a T-shirt and sweat pants.
The main goal is to get warm due to my exercise and is working.
My main motivation these songs.
I call it "Viking training".
Great song guys! SKÅL!!! From Sweden 🇸🇪
SKAL! The energy is insane I've listened to this on repeat for hours!
Great folk music by this band, greetings from Mexico. I'm so proud of you keep it going. Rise your roots al over the world.
GODS, this Song is so damn powerful. Definitely one of my favourites!!
this is art!
A big hug from this Brazilian! 🇧🇷
SKOL!
NoNo its Skål :D
So this is officially my favorite song of all time.
So glorious and inspiring! I keep listening to it again and again! Odin bless you, Gavin for your marvelous songs! Skal!
Vikings rule, this song rules, miracle of sound rules
Hearts for Thor
I'll raise my horn to this. Well done, miracle of sound. I love these Viking themed and style songs, it speaks well of my ancestors.
What horn? Ur not a Viking bru😂
@@lovestromgren-yg5fw I have a couple of drinking horns
Well this took a spot in my Top10 Favorite MoS songs and will now be on repeat for the next hour.
Great work.
I saw the lion king musical once live and it is still the best play of any kind I have personally seen. I am not one to commonly watch plays, but the show was finominal. Now TH-cam brings this one back to my feed, Peter Hollens is always great.
Honestly, this has already become one of my favorites. You always manage to put out absolutely amazing pieces.
Proud Viking
👍🏿
Vous etes super , je vous adores😍😍, votre musique et les instruments jouer sont sublime ,et sans compter votre votre voix qui nous emporte 😊😊
What a banger! The welcoming nature reflects how they would include people from many ethnic and religious backgrounds in their settlement and traded with many cultures! A Nordic song that won't be misinterpreted!
I thought they were a murderous bunch no?
@@novustalks7525 That's a stereotype which is mostly a misconception, but also, like most stereotypes, has some truth to it.
@@bxzidffbxzidff I get you
It's no sterotype
Vikings burned and looted all the churches and monasteries in the north of England.
Ancient books were burned, slaves taken, women raped.
Farms put to the torch,
And executions called the blood eagle.
Where you would be put upright on a cross and your lungs opened from the back, would be draped over your shoulders.
It took a long time to die.
King Harold annihilated a viking army at Stamford bridge, before
Marching 200 miles south in 6 days, to confront William the conquerers army at Hastings.
@@novustalks7525the _vikings_ as such may have been, but they were no more similar to the norse folk "at home" as the pirates were to the British or Spanish a few centuries later.
And even the Viking pirates and raiders settled down to trade after a while
I'm a 42 year old chronic alcoholic amd I bloody love it ❤
ну так пей дальше, не думай много, это вредно
SSSKKKKKAAAALLLLL 2025🔥🔥
There just is nothing else quite like Viking metal for me. And your songs are always a perfect fit for my taste. Another banger
There is a feeling of comfort and kinship that complements your other songs very well!
Skåld to you!
Glad to hear that :)
First time listening to this version…AMAZING!
Один из тех клипов,которые можно слушать бесконечно.
Да, бро!
Amazing Viking 🎶.. Love ❤ from India 🇮🇳
I could never get tired of this amazing song 👏👏👏👏
J'adore !!!! Gloire a Odin créateur de toutes choses
Song's awesome but honestly, massive props to the camera and viking crews, these visuals are fantastic!
This tune been playing in my head for weeks 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
As a swede you bring out my inner shield maiden to sing and roar! 😁 Love the music you make!!
SKÅL TO YOU (from one swede to another)
As not just a Norse Pagan, but also as a Viking Age re-enactor, I just wanna say that this song is one of the best viking-themed songs I've heard in years. Making me want to get some of my friends together and down a few horns of mead/beer, keep up the awesome work!!!
Such a great song and series. Love this show.
I've been listening for years, and not only do you never disappoint, but you always keep blowing my expectations away! Prosperity to you!
Damn this was such high production value that for a sec I was like "Wait I don't remember seeing these characters on Vikings"
They aren't from vikings. These people are part of the on stage crew for The Beard Struggle.
The show vikings had really bad costumes. No one walked around looking like bikers .
I really love this song ❤
The music, the lyrics, the video are so amazing!!
