We rise, we grow We walk and we stand tall We never fall As big as the sky As far as the dawn We walk And we do not fall We sleep, we dream With no time in between We never stop Whistling our chant In the heat of the night We sing The spirit is clean From north and south We come from east and west Breathing as one Living in fame or dying in flame We laugh Our mission is blessed We fight for you For freedom unforeseen Thinking as one Rolling along To the beat of the drum We march The black cross machine We rise, we grow We walk and we stand tall We never fall As weak as the sky As far as the dawn We walk And we never fall We stand alone But soon the day will come When freedom rings We'll meet again Now eternally And walk Once more as one!

There is hope in the songs of Laibach. Freedom, brotherhood, no egoism, no totalitarism. I like their poetic hymns.

It's hard to put into words what Laibach means to me. But I'll try, and I hope you, the reader, are with me. Friends and I saw Laibach at gigs in the UK in 1985, chatted to them after the gigs, and saw them in a similar light as other contemporary post-punk groups, such as Sonic Youth, Psychic TV, Coil and Foetus, that we also met post-gig in many cases, and had a good natter. We had also visited Slovenia in the mid-80s. I left the UK in the early 90s. I've been almost 30 years out of the music scene. Laibach's evolution has been amazing, however. Their stance, their videos, confound and mesmerise. "The Whistleblowers" is an incredible track. I have to see Laibach again, before I die. Their music, themes, and nuanced outlook is a light for me, and hopefully others. Rock on!

Proud of my Slovenian Heritage! Pozdrav IZ CANADA.

Slovenia!!!! Your children make us proud!!!! Unsere Mission ist Gesegnet!!

After so many years, this song is still so deep in my heart. a hymn for the free world!

Można słuchać bez końca. Te słowa i ta melodia... po prostu świetne.

I don't think there is another band like Laibach!

Laibach's music is some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard.

We stand alone, But soon the day will come, When freedom rings, We'll meet again, Now eternally, And walk, Once more as one!

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING MR. JULIAN ASSANGE!! YOU CAN WALK WITH YOUR HEAD UP UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD MAN. GOOD LUCK!!! BEST REGARDS FROM POLAND!!!!

When Laibach released spectre, they were few years ahead of everyone. The whole album is amazing, layered masterpiece and analysis about modern times and issues. Everything is still just as relevant to what's happening now, as it was in 2014.

This has to be one of the most creative videos I've ever seen.

This video is truly a masterpiece. The feel fresh, new and ground breaking and yet it still retains a familiar Liabach Ideology. This is a new and exciting facet to Liabach. Liabach needs a country to themselves.

Laibach je glasba. Perfekcija, kot vedno.

"From North and South we come from Eastern lands. Breathing as one. Living in fame or dying in flame. We love our mission is blessed" Hvala brothers! made my day

From north and south, We come from east and West, Breathing as one, Living in fame of dying in flame, We rise or mission is blessed

Love this catchy tune. When i was a kid... Dated a girl who loved this band. Early 1993+- and have fond memories of hearing there early stuff. I wish i could still get hold of... So on a wim placed a order for any vinyl out there of them hoping my supplier could find me the old stuff i knew... Anyway 3 months later here on the tip of africa Capetown, I receive two vinyl, didnt even know these guys where still going! so "Specter" was one of them. I cant stop listening.

Laibach You are our heroes! Pozdrav iz Ljubljane :)

Dass geht nicht den Bach runter. Great Music. Never heard a song of this group, .... WOW.

Les véritables français aimeront LAIBACH pour l'éternité. Cela doit être dit.

I used to like Laibach for their amazing cover versions, their own songs were rarely my kind of music, but damn this is an amazing song

Truly some of the most inspiring and politically astute music I've heard in ages. Old Laibach is dead. Long live new Laibach!

Epic Laibach anthem. I whistle this when I'm taking driving lessons (-:

May our Folk find themselves again. May our children see freedom.

Laibach! Ваш новый альбом относит меня к временам Front 242, Yello, Depeche, Young Gods.. Но вы в отличии от всех, это подали очень свежо! Крайне уверенно, не боясь ассоциаций. Это удел сильного! Сила в искусстве, сила в позиции относительно мира, сила в творчестве! Прекрасная работа! Поздравляю вас с новыми силами! Настоящие творцы! Вас слушаешь, и хочется жить и тоже творить! - Такое впечатления оставляют работы только НАСТОЯЩИХ творцов! Спасибо вам за то что вы есть! Больше нет слов. СПАСИБО!

Laibach is a mission which demands fanaticism

Люблю Вас друзья - с первого альбома - Все люди братья!

The ripest album of Laibach ! Magnificent sounds, magnificent voices. My heart and my feet dance. Thanks to Laibach .....

Laibach, nutrition for the soul.

И во Македонија се слушаат Лајбах! Поздрав до браќата Словенци и бидете горди што имате вакво групиште!

Haven't heard a new Laibach tune for 20 years. Such a pleasure! Masterpiece!!!

I only recently found out about Laibach, and as a rammstein-loving *Croat* I never knew there was such a great band this close to my country. I just love this song, Opus Dei, and Geburt Einer Nation. I love Laibach and great support!!

In an age of bullshit music, this is a breath of fresh air. Simply wonderful.

I've been listening to Laibach songs for more than 20 years now, and I'm still amazed by all that they bring to music. Alway different, always new.

Amazing piece, perfect execution. Mindblowing to think of this live in NK

The most beautiful song i have ever heard in my life

beautifull sound. it is typical Laibach sound & creative souls. i don't know if this is a couver, i will discouver it i think. thanks for this heroic feel.

ludilo ...pozdrav iz srbije ,..vi ste jedini normalni,...

We fight for you For freedom unforseen

It is good to know that Laibach is a band for all time, for all generations, passing the torch. Thank you for the strength.

Every song and every video Laibach does has meaning that may not be obvious from a glance at the surface appearance or casual listening to lyrics in the way we may often do with music. It's not just beautiful nonsense, though I suppose some would imagine it that way. The name of the song may hold part of the clue to meaning---"whistleblowers". Think about Snowden, Wikileaks, now revelations about Heartbleed and continuous stories from the Ukraine situation that fly directly in the face of what is being dished out by the Western mainstream media. The video shows pre-teens and young teens improving their skills and undertaking challenges to toughen themselves---both individually and as a cooperating coordinated team. When combined with the lyrics, it would appear to suggest that the hope of humanity lies with the young, with the fighters who struggle for more than just themselves but who don't forget themselves and don't shirk self-responsibility for the future made by their own hands, with those who will not be satisfied with the status quo or with the "new normal" nor with passively being "average". I think the song is essentially optimistically revolutionary on a philosophical and spiritual level. It seems to say that this ostensibly all-powerful anti-human global order will also be overthrown and replaced by a better humanity, and it may come sooner rather than later (the preteens and teens will grow up quickly, will know themselves to be worthy of a decent future, and will basically know that a better world is objectively possible---woe to those that stand in their way!). The remaining flower at the end would suggest the better tomorrow, followed by the young boy with his arms extended in a victorious stance at the end of his action signifying a better more advanced humanity that has been forged by the experience of a self-emancipation struggle to secure that better future. The militaristic tone of the song and the coordinated discipline of the youth striving for a common purpose in the video suggests that there must and will be a FIGHT for the better future, and that those how want such a future must prepare and act as fighters working together like an army for our common aim to be achieved. But a revolutionary FIGHT is waged not only with weapons and not only by spilling blood...half of the struggle is within and among ourselves, remembering and striving for the kind of humanity we wish to inhabit the better future and who could earn it by their action (this is what the phrases "we rise, we grow" and "the spirit is clean" imply). Anyone can merely take up arms and fight, but what does it require to fight successfully for a better future? Even the talk of 'freedom' here doesn't seem to be about individual self-seeking, but rather that it will take a better world for a better self-liberated humanity in order for real freedom to be possible for each, and any such freedom made possible by the collective action of humanity requires social responsibility as well because "an injury to one is an injury to all", because all support and protect the freedom of each, and equivalent reciprocity is expected to maintain the free humanity rather then once again put it under the yoke and at the mercy of anti-social anti-human individualist predators and parasites. If my interpretation is anything similar to what Laibach intended, then clearly this is an brilliant communication which is simultaneously very subversive and also quite beautiful and hopeful.

Laibach posle 30 g ostaju to sto jesu,melodicno iskreno i psihodelicno,sa jakim uticajem svega sto nas okruzuje.

This is gonna be the anthem for a new republic one day

Leibach has so many musical varieties and incarnations that he has probably converted every possible kind of music industrial.

Hymn of Europe

This song never gets old.

I know Im off topic but that guy with microphone 0:34 is sooo coool and later 3:05 when they are looking at blowin flowerpot... My commentary is a tribute to all those guys who were not good enough to be a whistleblowers but did they part. A silent heroes. SALUTE!

maintain discipline, train hard, practice to perfection whatever you may do... amazing piece

Odlično. ..Bravo Laibach

This is absolutely genius! Thank you Laibach for your contribution to the arts of the world.

Une nation qui veut que ses enfants soient des surhommes est vraiment sur d'exister.....!!!!

LAIBACH = Best Band ever. So many great awesome Songs.

This song is incredible. The video is incredibly well done also

sounds like a national anthem

I can’t stop listening to this.. and the more I listen the better it sounds ! Greetings from England 👍

The message here is strong and beautiful, and should be chanted for ages, until Humanity is free and after that too.

thank you, from Lithuania :)

This is Way too awesome to be true. Such an amazing Piece of Music ❤️

Beautiful Warsaw Pact era aesthetics.

absolute BANGER of a song .... everything ... love it

it'll never cease to amaze me how people try to interpret laibach outside the nsk collective.

아직도 종종 찾아듣는 곡...

Great song! Can't stop whistling now. Also, soviet electronic devices from my childhood - multimeter, oscilloscope, wave generators.

Laibach уверенным шагом входит в мой личный топ любимчиков. Газуйте, ребята. Пускай не будет вам преград!!!

Erstaunliche Künstlergruppe👌🏻👍🏻

"Im Frühtau zu Berge wir ziehn, fallera!"

Dobro došli u Niš, jedva čekam :)

Večne legende.

This video in 2014 was what made me want to learn acrobatics(it paid off)

C'est génial et c'est tout. C'est Laibach !

Dobro nam došli 4. uveče, geniji!

So being a gymnast under the watchful eye of Milan Fras gives you whistling powers like those 'weirding modules' from the Dune-movie?

Мощно! Сильная энергетика.

I may or may not have just found my new favorite song of the year.

This so needs to be Slovenia's Eurovision 2015 entry :D

Un souffle de vie, pour toujours. Najlepša hvala!!!

These kids are everywhere!!!! In all countries of the world! ❤

Zjutraj si dam tale komad, zaplešem in še malo zapojem zraven in nov dan je takoj lepši...moja budnica

Great music, lyrics, and images - one of the later ones could be the opposite of a verse in Eliot's Waste Land. Eliot in the 1920s: "I will show you fear in a handful of dust." Laibach today: "We show you hope in one single plant."

We fall, We rise, We never stop

LAIBACH IS BEAUTIFUL. AND IN CONCERT ARE EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL

Beautiful!

Totally in a league of their own thankfully. Still managing to do something fresh and interesting after all these years.

Geniajlno idejno, izvedbeno in glasbeno zrcalo našega časa.

We rise, we grow. We walk and we stand tall, we never fall...We see, the spirit is clean. Great Idea for 2014 ff - Erziehungsberatung by Laibach !

Just can't get that tune out of my head. Brilliant :)

Tohle je prostě nádhera. Skvělé vyzvánění na mbl.

Laibach is love laibach is life

I love the subtext of using Artreides sound weirding as a weapon, as well as a method of regeneration of life.

Zivela Karantanija Slovenija👍👍👍👌

they make Slovenia look so much more exotic and exciting than the teenagers there probably think it is. laibach is awesome!

Aguante Laibach desde Colombia. Tremenda Banda. Una de las mejores de los últimos 40 años. Such a wonderful band, Laibach are true artists.

Bravo, Laibach!! Awesome!

Je crois que c'est la meilleure de Laibach que j'ai jamais entendu. Le clip est cool aussi! :D

Best whistling melody ever.

Assurement l'un des meilleurs morceau de Laibach VIVE POUTINE VIVE LA RUSSIE EN ROUTE POUR LA TROISIEME GUERRE MONDIALE ..... ; ) ......

I don't know why, but that tune somehow reminds me of Yellow submarine... Great piece, Laibach!

this should have millions of views >.>

A spectre is haunting Europe - the spectre of sweet industrial jams.
