I wrote, produced, sang most of the vocals and played all the instruments on this song. People get confused because Peyton cut me out of the video, but it's not his song, it's my song with him as a feature 👍

Yes, please snag Peyton to do a Bass Gang collaboration!

There is also a trio version with Eric Hollaway on the bass. Sick af! 🔥

Love seeing more people reacting to Gavin (Miracle of Sound). He has such a wide range of genre of songs he does. Would love to see more reactions to his songs. Gavin also does all the vocals, instruments and arraigning unless he mentions otherwise in his songs, he also has some amazing collabs.

Miracle of Sound wrote this.❤ Payton is perfect as a Viking, he puts everything into it. The collaborations are awesome. I’ve listened to so many here on KZfaq.

Thank you so much for your reaction to Miracle of Sound's song! I have been listening to his music for years, and I am always happy to see other people reacting to his songs. However one of the sad things about this song is that due to the virality (is that the word?) of the song, mostly through TikTok, many people don't know that he was the one who wrote, composed and produced it. He has written a lot of songs which are usually inspired by video games, but he writes other pieces as well. ✨ I am pretty sure that the one who sang the throat singing part in this song (Valhalla Calling) was Miracle of Sound, because it is also in the original version. Some of my favourite songs by Miracle of Sound are "Soul of Sand", "When Honor Dies" and "Ode to Fury". I would recommend giving "Soul of Sand" a listen! It is inspired by Dune and it features two female artists, Sharm and Sheyma Rochdi, and there is also some throat singing going on (this also probably Miracle of Sound). All around a pretty cool song! 😄 Link to "Soul of Sand": kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bNZjqsuAqJaanHU.html

The nice thing about different artists doing the same songs is that each does it their own way. And that doesn't mean one is necessarily "better" than another. They're just different and often equally as good as one another. Definitely love the way they get into character and into the music while singing. The whole body movements, the grit... it makes for a powerful performance.

YES , we here in the nordic countrys are listening to a lot of metal , per capita we have the stronges metalcommunity and metalbands in the world. Greetings from nwAse Sweden

Gavin (Miracle of Sound) is amazing. The Tale of Cu Chulainn of one of my favorites. It's also my autistic son's favorite. It's one of the few songs that can help pull him out of a melt down and calm him down.

9:44 Miracle of Sound is the original artist, this version is a collaboration that came later. Miracle of Sound has done a ton of music inspired by video games, including games like Mass Effect, Skyrim, Diablo, Elden Ring, Subnautica: Below Zero, Red Dead Redemption and many more. He also has a lot of music inspired by other stuff like TV shows, classical folk tales and more.

P. Parrish has awoken our inner Viking, Skol

I’ve been dying to hear you talk about Peyton’s singing, how he gets that much grit into it without hurting his voice (or does he)? Those bass notes are also in Gavin’s (aka Miracle of Sound) solo version, so I’m guessing it’s Gavin or someone he brought in. This piece is amazing-SO many versions out there, and different styles (Voiceplay) and they’re all awesome. Gavin deserves a thousand alehorns. There’s also a version of this duet, but adding Eric Hollaway-you can imagine. Peyton definitely gets a workout when he performs. LOL. There’s a version of Misty Mountains Cold with Peyton, Jonathan Young, and Colm McGuinness, if you really want to hear Peyton with Jonathan (and Colm). Yes, yes, yes, to a collab with Peyton. Also maybe you guys should reach out to Gavin and see if he has a song in the works that could use some BASS. Yes, I’m rambling-commenting as I listen. Amazing reaction-thanks so much!!

Such an epic version! Thanks Peter!

I have been listening to Miracle of Sound for years now, while I don't get why this song of his was the one that exploded, I am glad it did. Gavin is very talented and deserves the attention, and as a Dane, any Viking stuff that becomes popular is something I support

So, this really is just such an epic song. If there is a song that makes you feel like you're ready to go on raids, pillaging the monasteries of England, this is it. That's one of the things I really love about Assassin's Creed Valhalla is getting to see the creation of the Danelaw in England (which is a country that I have very close ties to since my father is from there). Very powerful game, and... maaaaaaybe worth livestreaming? (hint, hint) Either way, you should really do more of Peyton's videos. No joke, one of my favorites of his is actually Can You Feel The Love Tonight, where you get to hear more of his soulful quality. Either way, I am convinced that he is a barbarian who multi-classed into bard. He's amazing to listen to.

Hi Peter. No doubt this has been said elsewhere in the comments but here goes..... Gavin (Miracle of Sound) wrote the original and has 4 or 5 variants on his channel, including the duet with Peyton and a trio with Peyton and Eric Holloway. KZfaq is littered with versions of it now by many different people - and apparently a lot of people never credit Gavin as the writer. 😠 You mentioned Jonathan Young in the video - he has done a version of it and it's probably my favourite. VoicePlay have also done a version. JY has also done several numbers with Peyton - I think there are 2 on JY's channel and 2 on PP's channel. One of those is another Viking themed song, "Drengr of Ragnarok" - well worth a listen if you like the Viking theme. As for getting PP to collaborate with The Bass Gang - definitely! That would be great - as would another collaboration with JY. 👍😊

Gavin (Miracle of Sound) is a tenor and Peyton is a baritone, so when singing together, Peyton is doing the lower notes. In the version with Eric Halloway, Eric is doing the basso profundo notes.

It would be worth hunting up Miracle of Sound's release of this, since he's the one who wrote it. Then listen again to Voiceplay's version and you realize Geoff is the war horn. :)

I absolutely love Peyton Parrish! He is super talented!

As an American Swede, Celt/Scott, this just speaks to my soul!

I was genuinely surprised to hear this is your first time hearing them together. A great analysis as always, thank you for another interesting video!

YEAH!!!! I love this song so much and Peyton is PHENOMENAL man!!

I started watching your videos during the summer and it's really cool to see your evolution. I can tell you that in this video you were very expressive and the excitement that this style of singing gives you is awesome. You seem a lot more comfortable in your reactions (at least that's how I got it). Anyway just thought of giving feedback, love the video!🙌

Other Peyton Parrish songs that highly deserve analysis are God of War (with Saltatio Morits) and Master of War, and his Hoist the Colours Cover. He has a whole Disney Cover album littered with amazing options as well

LOVE your background :)

Miracle of sound made this song. Miracle of sound creates songs based on pop culture

Always enjoy your analysis of vocal techniques ❤ and on Peyton’s channel is Valhalla ( Viking Chant ) one year ago - showcasing his voice, and “For the King “ this is a good one to analyze different depths to his voice - excellent variety to his talents on For the King

Maybe it's my Scandinavian heritage but this gives me chills. I love it.

I always learn something with your analysis! You always seem to hear things that my ears doesn't. Love your voice and great appreciation for your work. 👌👌👌😊

I've always dreamt of Mongolian Tuva style singing to be included in a cool song. Peyton nailed it!

I absolutely love this song. I also love husky/gritty voices.

It would be awesome to here you and Payton do a bass track together

You really sounded like Batman😂

Awesome!!

You should absolutely check out Payton Parrish and Johnathon Young “Dragnr of Ragnarok”

Thanks!

That would be a video I would see all the time with peyton and the bass gang

This is spectacular! I only got aware of this very recently myself!

I found Peyton Parrish thanks to Voice Play's My Mother Told Me, Peyton has the song in Old Norse, you should check it out. It's amazing. Also For Honor and Drengr Of Ragnarok by Peyton Parish featuring Jonathan Young. Thanks for the reaction!!

Ironically enough, watching some of Paytons vids, his speaking voice is somewhere between a Baraton and a Bass. But his singing voice can be either baraton or bass, which is incredible to hear a singer who can hit multiple tones at once.

I find it funny you said something about Jonathan Young. Him and Peyton did a cover of Misty Mountains also featuring Colm. Peyton has also featured on a couple of Jonathan's sea shanty videos.

I've also noticed that Payton Parrish can do a version of throat singing, Mongolian throat singing

It's a WONDERFUL, POWERFUL song. I LOVE it💖💖💖💖💖💖

Peyton also just recently did a collab with German band Saltatio Mortis, called "God of War", wonder if you'd enjoy that as much as I hope you do this 🥰

It's about time!

Great song and great analysis!

I highly recommend giving Peyton's songs a listen. Whether as a series of reaction/analysis videos or simply to listen to in your spare time. I recommend looking at his recently released Disney album. Especially, "Be Prepared". He goes absolutely bonkers with the grit, growls, overdarkened tones, and had thrown in some deathcore(?) Harsh vocals as well. The song that introduced me to Peyton was his original song, "Ragnarok". Most of Peyton's songs are originals that he has written and produced himself with an accompanying band as well. I believe he is either on tour or is finishing up a tour in Europe right now. Gavin has done several collabs with Maluka in the past pertaining to fan-made Skyrim songs such "Tales of the Frost" and I believe "Sovngarde Song" as well. He's also create a LOT of original songs for the Assassin's Creed series besides AC: Valhalla and the Witcher 3 with "Wake the White Wolf". He's also collabed with Karliene on a few occasions with his AC: Odyssey song "My Odyssey" and one of Game of Thrones fan songs "Only Us" which is a song about Cersei and Jaime's relationship prior to him losing his sword hand. As well as quite a few with Sharm as well. Sharm is famous for her World of Warcraft and Diablo fan songs. Which is I also recommend giving a listen 😊. A few of my favorite songs from that set of collabs is "Moonlight Blue", "Mother of Flame" (A tribute to Daenerys), and definitely Soul of Sand (A tribute to the newest Dune movie with Zendaya and Timothee Chalamet). All of Gavin's songs are written, produced, and sang by him. Making them originals in their right and he's been creating content since 2011 I believe when Skyrim first came out. Thank you so much for giving this song a listen Peter!! And I'm definitely interested to see if you and the rest of the Bass Gang are able to collab with Peyton in the nearby future 😁👍!

Can you imagine the "Lion Sleeps Tonight" with bass grit???? Peyton's cover of this just makes me HAPPY....(growl)....😮

You should check out the cover of Misty Mountain performed by Jonathan Young, Payton Parrish and Colm McGuinness. They all get their own solos in higher and bass registers. Bad ass!

The original version with Miracle of Sound was excellent but this duet version with Peyton Parrish brought this song to legendary status, right where it belongs.

Yes to everything Bass Gang :D

Miracle of Sound wrote this song right?

Valhalla calling me is pure power to me. I am a viking! I am a swede and my bloodline came from England 233 years ago. England have a history with vikings to so I am a proud viking!

Peyton's song "Ironside" is a great way to get yourself hyped up in 2 minutes

❤

I have 5 version of this on my iPod to listen to while out and about. The original by Miracle of Sound, Miracle of Sound ft. Peyton Parrish, Miracle of Sound ft Peyton Parrish and Eric Hollaway (and man, talk about a deep voice!), Peyton Parrish (solo), and VoicePlay ft J None.

My god, Peyton is amazing. Dude loves his job.

Well, my house just burned down with this song. So. FIRE.

damn, I'm just immagining them getting down like 5 bottles of water after a recording sessionto keep the vocal chords safe xD

Peyton did an awesome collab with German folk metal band Saltatio Mortis, God of War, the theme song from the game Ragnarok

I’m somewhat familiar with Peyton. In some of his other work it definitely sounds like he uses a version of throat bass, and he does it extremely well. His track “For Honor” shows it off very well and was the track that introduced me to him. Highly recommend checking it out (on here or on your own time) because the sound is so unique. Great review Peter!

I think Peter would LOVE Hu Wolf Totem 🎉

I'm up to a epic colab with Peyton! 🤘🏻😝

I love Payton ❤ He is so versatile too. He does Disney songs as well as Viking songs. Amazing voice 😊

You definitely need to check out his song Ragnarok and his song War, it'll blow your mind

3:57 if you want high and gritty, check out some Beast In Black. Motherfucker has one of the highest voices a man in metal has ever had let alone music in general that I know of

I love Peyton! A collaboration would be amazing!

I first encountered this song on a chat thread about the game Valheim. Very kewl. And the first comment I saw was about a woman with terminal cancer who played this song daily.

Yes, collab please.

The only thing that could have made this more epic than it is? Bagpipes.

I can't help but imagine a collaboration of this song with these guys and The Hu. 🤤

You should do the Valhalla calling trio version

Wait til you hear the version with Eric Holloway. Its got 10 million views in 10 months.

Being 50% Norg I loved this song

I may be mistaken, but this might qualify as a shanty. As you mentioned, it doesn't really change, it repeats. I could see it being used to time a task

I was told to recommend We All Lift Together by WarFrame.

The only person I know can do grit with a high voice is Eli Jacobson...

Payton has several viking songs that are bad ass and several Disney goes rock covers I would recommend as well. My maternal grandfather was from Sweden so this stirs my viking blood. Makes me want to grab my war axe and start destroying my enemies lol.

True Grit coming soon 😏

Miracle of Sound wrote this song

It's interesting how people get attracted by things that are alien for them. I do like vocals like this, but I practically grew with music of this kind, rock, metal and viking as well (because I was early medieval reenactor for many years). So gritty voices like this are just too common for me so probably that's why my greatest fascination is a polar opposite. I always loved clean, even operatic voices in this kind of music genres, because they would stand out much more.

Voiceplay do an epic cover of this too...but i just love Payton as a viking ❤

Speaking of Jonathan Young... he did cover this. It's good. Voiceplays is the absolute wildest cover out there though. They really went nuts with it.

for best understand where singing Miracle of Sound and where Peyton Parrish you shoyld watch this song on Miracle of Sound channel. Because Peyton cut video part with Miracle and leave only himself. At the same time at Miracle of Sound version you can see where is Peyton singing and where Miracle of where they together

Johnathan young has a cover of Valhalla calling with Payton pasrish and Colem McGinness

Just saw this and now I'm wondering how would viewing of the Valhalla Calling (Trio Version) Miracle Of Sound, Eric Hollaway, Peyton Parrish-version go...

First of all yes please, tag Peyton for a collab. Second check out the trio version w/Peyton, Miracle of Sound and Eric Hollaway.

A new song from them are God of War , feat. Saltatio Mortis. Saltatio Mortis is a medieval metal band from Germany. Good Musik and Videos. You should react to them. To Songs like " My mother told me " "The dragonborn comes " or "Pray to the hunter "

I think it would be SICK if you reacted to Payton Parrish's versions of Disney songs. He did an amazing job!

Bring the Young Peyton Parrish on board for a Bass Gang collaboration! Then let the insanity and music break forth!

Just in case you were curious Johnathan Young did a cover of this song.

Excellent reaction and analysis. I find it interesting how so much music from video games is better than the music created by mainstream artists with their three minute formula sound. You might find Saltatio Mortis interesting. I would recommend either "My Mother Told Me" or "Pray to the Hunter."

Привет , Питер!😄😍👍👍👍🪱🔥

You said you were practicing the Joker voice. Could you be thinking of tackling Miracle of Sound's Joker Song?

Oh, yes, please snag Peyton for a BG collab!

Can you please react to sb19 singing tilaluha (Stop crying) on the round festival

Awesome! Love you checking this out! I suggest you check out "God of War" by Saltatio Mortis feat. Payton Parrish, there you can get a taste of some of Paytons more bassy qualities!

Ado ~ japanese female artist. One of the greatest an most unique voice of the decade. If you do not know her pls take the time and listen to her. There is something in her voice that just mezmerises ppl all around the world. As for a recommendation you can pick any song from her. She is burning the house down on every single one. Personally i would reccomend her Debut single: Usseewa (the piano version is even better) Gira Gira Tot Musica (from the One Piece film red, she sang every song for the movie) Crime and punishment Dignity But you may pick any other song and still hit the jackpot

Would love to hear you break down Elvira by The Oakridge Boys, Shinedown’s cover of Simple Man, or anything Linkin Park.

Yes, please get Peyton for a Bass Gang collab.
