Thank you all for watching and being so enormously generous in the chat! I appreciate all of yis' beauts beyond words! As always, drop a suggestion below! LYRICS BELOW: Þetta mun aldri enda því at ek vil meirr Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr Þetta mun aldri enda því at ek vil meirr Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr Ef ek hefði hjarta ek gæti elska þik Ef ek hefði rödd ek myndi syngja Eptir nóttina er ek vaki upp Ek mun sjá hvat morgin komar Ef ek hefði rödd ek myndi syngja Dangla fett frá vindaugi ramma Mun ek alltaf alltaf ná gólfið? Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr Mullið ok fyllt með allt ek fann Undir ok inni bara at koma í kring Meirr, gef mér meirr, gef mér meirr Ef ek hefði rödd ek myndi syngja

Colm has literally the greatest vocal range I’ve heard in my life. He’s a tenor, baritone, and bass all in one...and how many instruments does he play???? I play piano, banjo, and accordion and here this dude can play guitar, banjo, accordion, bouzouki, cello, probably piano, and the 3-string medieval thing. Lol. Colm’s a world class musician.

Ever considered an Old Norse version of "Valhalla Calling Me"? I feel like your voice would lend itself very well to that song.

As someone who accidentally found out how to throat-sing while singing along, alone in my car, I can say: that shit's hard, this man is a legend.

I had chills already, but I got more when you went up high, then was shocked when you went higher!! I was like "What is his range?! The Milky Way?!" XD

This version > everything

Well, that goes into my DnD playlist. Epic performance.

Freddie Mercury: has the most varied vocal range for decades Colm McGuinness: hold my jumper

Those are the manliest rolled R’s in history

that is absolutely stunning. just... atmosphere of this song is SO norse, that you can literally hear thunderstorm, falling rocks, cracking ice, roar of the coldest wind and smell of frost on a dark night somewhere on the coast of the northern seas. thank you very, very much for this incredible work! and please, also stay so AWESOME. you're really one of a kind.

I didn't realize a norse version of that song was missing...until I heard this. We needed this.

Such deep texture...shivers down my spine... His voice is transcendent beauty

As a Swede. I absolutely love the fact i can hear the initial lyrics. "Giv mig mer" aka; Give me more wich is the lyrics of the English song. This is pure perfection and my Swedish ancestors raise the horn to you.

This is metal af. I suddenly grew a beard and wanted to go raiding. I could hear the sound of axe on shield.

Then saith the Lord, "Let there be bass!" and Colm McGuinness began to sing...

50/50 Danish and Irish guy living in the middle of nowhere America here. I still have relatives in both countries and can understand at least the basics of the Norse languages. I don't know how you landed on my suggested lists a year ago, but your renditions of various Norse and Irish tunes are so good. Both a nod to the traditional renditions with your own twist are exactly what musicians respect in a cover/ recording. You deserve all the praise and success you have already achieved and still have coming to you. Thank you for reminding me of my grandmother's Irish tales (I believe of Kilkenny) and my Danish family in Kolding, Denmark. Keep on doing what makes you happy and the best in the future.

I believe this is the most beautiful and most powerful song I've ever listened to... Thank you Colm. I'm absolutely speechless..

THIS. There are just no words in the English language to express how excited I am about this!!! It's going to be the most epic thing that I have ever heard. (In case it wasn't obvious, this is what I voted for in the poll.)

as a norwegian i can say this was really good.. shit i did not know about that there were someone that sang like this in norse and old norse =O

I found him a few songs ago. Happy new year 2023. I can feel his music in my bones. I love this man his range and annunciation is perfect. He's amazing I'm blessed to hear him. His voice is a gift.

I ended up here by the classic "random youtube algorithm", but man, what an incredible voice and a great cover! gef mér meirr!

9 hours ago I said I'd be here for the premiere, I made it, then Colm just straight transported us into the realm of Colm-Norse where he is Odin; and his voice wove it's magic. Returning to the normal realm seems bland by comparison to the realm of the Colmpany. 11/10 putting on repeat!

The wow factor of this song. Just wow, your vocal range, the climax, everything. In total awe, so powerful. I love it

The hair on my back stood up. Wow just Wow. I've loved this song for the longest time but this version Thank you.

This Norse songs are fantastic with his vocals, they keep me coming back. Would love an album of him just singing norse songs.

I listen to the English version on repeat. Can't wait to hear you sing it like this 😃

HIGH school choir never let us sing this with this passion and colour! WOW

Love this Nordic version, it shakes the ground under my feet.....Absolutely brilliant.

Holy shit I thought I loved the English version you did, and I DO, but this is my new favorite. You're freaking awesome. How do we get Wardruna to see this and do a collab with you? I would hit the roof.

Ahhh this sounds awesome! My favorite version by far! I don't know how it's written but the "Give me more" line in Old Norse sounds a lot like it would in German ("Gib mir mehr"). I just love how you can detect tiny similarities and see how languages are related to or influenced each other.

‘give me mair’ sounds very like Scottish too, showing how the old language overlaps. This is absolutely brilliant, what great rich deep voice 🥰

Dear Lord! This is epic. It’s got me looking for my axe and longship…

This is going to be awesome. I haven't heard it but respect fro trying it in old norse. I wished for this ever since you made the community tab giving this as an option. You're great

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE put it on spotify. been waiting for 2 days ever since it came out and it's still not out yet D: This is highly addictive!

Simply unbelievable. I was redirected here from the Fever Ray original (of which I've been a fan for many years). But this voice... Thank you, Colm!!

Coming from Celtic and Norse ancestors it reverberated to my soul. The cat came out to listen to it with me and I felt my ancestors filled the room. . A spiritual moment. Thank you.

Funny being Icelandic and understanding the whole thing.😂😂 If anyone wants the lyrics: Þetta mun aldrei enda af því at ek vil meir. Meir, gef mér meir, gef mér meir. Þetta mun aldrei enda af því at ek vil meir. Meir, gef mér meir, gef mér meir. Ef ek hefði hjarta ek gæti elkað þig. Ef ek hefði rodd ek mynda syngja. Eftir nóttina er ek vaki upp. Ek mun sjá þat (er?) morgin kemr?. (seems a bit dodgy translated) Ef ek hefði rodd ek myndi syngja. Dangla fet frá vindaugi ramma.

The "My mother told me (Old norse)" was a banger, but NEVER EXPECTED YOU TO DO ANOTHER OLD NORSE COVER!!!

This cover has more heart than the other versions I've heard. Awesome!!

This is pure magic. Absolutely love you. So grateful to have an opportunity to listen to you. Thank you for being you!

I literally can’t wrap my head around the fact that Colm improved the last Vikings cover..absolutely incredible❤️👌👌

I remember back at a poll some weeks ago, I chose this. I knew it would someday become a reality! Once again, thank you so much Colm! This is gonna be epic! Liked before it starts!

Gives me chills.What a voice.Oh,my goodness.It can't be REAL.He's just too much...too much MAN.I must hear this everyday or night now.Where's he been hiding? 😍🤗

This was so striking. It's as if the gods themselves were singing through you! It's rare that I feel faint, but that was awe inspiring. I love hearing Norwegian, Swedish and Danish being spoken, there are so many little links to Scottish Gaelic and Doric.

He should definitely make more Norse covers. They sound amazing!

You have an absolutely incredible range. This cover is so perfect.

I 10000% did not expect that voice. But my goooodness is this good.

Excellent pitch power and pace. Beyond this, appreciate my Wife's Nordic roots and culture. Thanks for spotlighting it here.

Since you've been doing old norse-versions lately, how about doing your own cover of "Völuspa" by Wardruna? :>

Yasss let's go. Can't wait for this one; your first cover of this is one of my all time favs of yours and it can only go up from there, ha.

I come back and listen regularly. Most powerful song ever sung by Colm.

min 2:31 WHAT??? I am completely blown away by his vocal talent and range!!!! That was PHENOMENAL!!!

Four and half minutes of massive goosebumps! Holy smokes! So beautiful!

Your music makes me so happy. Coming towards the final days of my life. Your music brings me so much joy.

Holy crow. You are one amazing singer! I’m blown away.

Never heard of you til now nor this version but this definitely is viking and Odin worthy.

Holy ****! Jaw dropping version. Amazing. Can we, like, go raid a village now? 🔥🔥🔥

Maybe an unrealistic request, but I'd love to see you do a cover of any Heilung song. It would be great as just you or with a collaboration of some sort.

One of these days they ought to have a Viking series with a theme song in old Norse. Especially one with a deep bellowing voice like this!

it's really cool reading/listening to old norse and realizing how many modern english words come from it. you can understand more than you think

It sounds eerie. Like something you'd hear in a haunted forest up north. Great performance

Rainy evening, on the way in a bar to have a nice night with my best friends, sitting in a bus and hear that Masterpiece. Thanks for that

Oh my Odin, where in the Helheim did you learn to sing like that? Outstanding!! Valhalla at a playa

This version is so powerful compared to the original. Original sounds lonely was fitting for Ragnars story’s but this sounds like Bjorn uniting everyone to fight the Rus

Damn, I am so glad Colm Mcguiness is stillgoing, and blowing my mind with every song he makes. I just can't stop listening to Colm's songs, because the talent and amount of effort he puts into making these songs, it's really shows howuch a true artist puts into each and everyone of their songs they make.

I am so excited! I have a feeling it's going to be one of my favorites! I hope we can in the future hear sea shanties in different languages! I think that would be awesome!

There's something so comforting about this song to me.... I don't think I can describe the happiness this brings me

I cannot express how much I love this. It feels like my ancestors are reaching through time and squeezing my heart. Also my children won’t listen to any other music, only Colm, all the time. 👍🏻

'and now I want to listen to the English version again', 'and now I want to listen to the Norse version again', 'and now I want to listen to the English version again', 'and now I want to listen to the Norse version again', and repeat forever!

This is the song of a rising culture. More give them more give them more. The old ways are being remembered and its wisdom is being realised.

So evocative! What a voice ...made for this language! And I love your gorgeous sweater!

I may not be a professional but i can appreciate good singing when i hear one. Amazing job

OMG 🥰 I've been bingeing Vikings for a few weeks now. This is exactly what I need today!!!💯

no matter how many times I listen to this, I get goosebumps. absolutely amazing

Это просто невероятно!!! Спасибо Вам огромное за то, что несмотря на трудные времена, Вы находите время и силы, чтобы радовать нас своим пением :)

I don't know how I've lived for nearly 40 years without this song in my life.. it's incredible

I cannot get enough of this, I want a lyric version already so I can practice for next year's Ullr-Vation festival here in the mountains.

Wowwwwwww. 😱 Those solid deep vocal notes alongside the low cello...! Chills. And the key change added just the layer it needed! Wow wow wow.

I've never heard this song before, and I'm SO happy that it was your version that I heard first! Talk about growing some chest hair...😳🎶 Very very talented!

Skullcandy crusher evo + Colm McGuinness = literally feeling the presence of your Viking ancestors.

I left this playing in my truck last night. It is now a long boat...

i have not even heard this yet, but i am more than confident that this is a masterpiece.

I love this! Your range is amazing and I keep getting chills, you've put a beautiful amount of emotion into your singing.

holy crap i have not seen a singer with this much range in many moons

the english version is by far my favorite song, ive listened to it so many times, and i was pretty excited to hear the my mother told me in old norse, so seeing this was comming up, amazing!

This might just be the best song cover you've made yet.

When you find out you have Scandinavian ancestry

damn the range of his voice... and its giving me electric feeling from my back of my neck through my spie. wow

You sir are a wealth of talent, can't understand the words but I feel the music in my chest everytime. The instruments and your vocals resonate with me. Even developed an interest in Gaeilge because of your cover of Oro se do bheatha 'Bhaile thank you

Holy crap. That’s all I have to say. The added instruments make it even more powerful than your original

The bass in this guys voice can rattle bones, the whole this is amazing!

What the hell did I just listen to. I’m Greek and I just became a Viking for a short while…. This guy gave me chills!

Truly amazeballs! The kids joined me me in watching this premiere and were blown away as well.

The sheer passion and emotion you put into this is amazing, I can hear in your singing that your whole heart is in it. Absolutely stunning as always bro love your stuff 🤙❤️

Holy fratelli's.. Your vocal range is insane. Fantastic cover.

A rendition one wishes never to end.

And so the wait......begins

You have such an amazing range! I think you could sing children’s songs in old Norse and we would all be blown away.

Santa Mãe de Deus!!!! Essa voz é mais tenebrosa que o som do trovão!

Absolutely incredible. I need to listen to this every day of my life. Your voice is the kind of voice they would have written songs about, not just for, but *about*.
