I'm an Icelander living oversaes too. Yeah the anthem is beautiful and we should all respect it but the thing I find sad is that there is only a handful of people that can actually sing it and a national anthem should be a happy song veryone can sing. It doesn´t unite people like national anthem in so many other countries do.
Is this a very moving and beautiful song. It's very powerful and flows wonderfully. Iceland is a very beautiful country and it's shown in such a magnificent anthem. God bless our Icelandic brethren!
Is there any record of the ENTIRE icelandic anthem, with all three stanzas? I' dlike sooooo much to listen to the ENTIRE icelandic "Lofsöngur"! Makes me crazy, happy, inspired, free! Just like the icelandic people is!
@ThornyRoseV ég get verið sammála þér um að kristni var þröngvað upp á okkur og því að þetta lag ætti ekki að vera þjóðarlag okkar og í raun því að þjóðarlag ætti ekki að hafa neinar vitnanir í trúarleg ákvæði en þetta lag var kosið sem þjóðarlag okkar hvort sem það var gert af þjóðinni eður ei og ættir þú að vera stolltur af því hvort sem var og maður á ávallt að vera stolltur af þjóðarlagi sínu hvar svosem það má hava komið frá.
svo vinsamlegast ekki gera lítið ú íslensku þjóðinni með því
God Bless Iceland. The last true bastion of civilisation. You stood up to the global banking cartel & are free from the alien domination.
You wont read it in the European globalist controlled newspapers, but many free thinking Europeans, particularly north Europeans have great respect for you. In the meantime the rest of Europe is run by crooks who have no interest in our traditions & values.
@thornyRoseV Hverjum er ekki skít sama fíflið þitt
þetta lag er einn fallegasti þjósöngur veraldar, þegar íslendingar syngja hann af stolti og þegar við þurfum að nánast öskra hann því hann fer svo hátt upp, þá fer maður nánast að grenja því þetta lag snertir mann svo, ekki útaf einhverri trú, lagið er löngu búið að missa tenginguna við kristna trú þannig séð.
Og ég stórlega efast það að þú til dæmis myndir hætta að halda upp á jólin á þínu heimili
@ThornyRoseV. Skammastu þín. Þetta er Þjóðsöngur Íslands. Hvað þú skrifar er til skammar. Ég hef verið búsettur erlendis í 30 ár og þjóðsöngurinn og íslenski fáninn er mitt stolt. Drullastu út úr kjallaranum þínum og líttu á hversu flott land þú býrð í, hversu fínt þú hefur það, og skammastu þín, flón!
@fillifari Ísland er samt að breytast þú veist. En samt, það er ekki gott að skammast landið þegar ríkisstjórn er að kenna fyrir allt vont sem gerðast í landinu. okkar vantar bara nýja ríkisstjórn sko..en hvað get ég sagt, ég hef ekki búið á Íslandi í mörgum árum... :) en já mér er sammála, ekki gott að skammast Íslands :) bara ríkisstjórninnar
@icefaxi Hahaha alltaf fyndið þegar fólk kennir bara RÍKISSTJÓRNINNI um allt. Ríkisstjórnin bar ábyrgð á banakahruninu, það var ríkisstjórnin sem hækkaði lánin mín og það er ríkisstjórninni að kenna að ég get ekki lengur átt tvo bíla. Halda virkilega allir að þetta sé svona auðvelt, að ríkisstjórnin sé bara eitthvað vont fólk að reyna að gera ástandið verra. Ég treysti ríkisstjórninni!!
Þetta lag er viðbjóður. Ég skammast mín fyrir að vera íslendingur þegar þetta lag er enn haft sem þjóðsöngur. Lærir fólk aldrei neitt ?? Ekki að kristni var þröngvað upp á þjóðina og gerði alla að aumingjum í afneitun.. svo fyrir utan það að þetta lag sálmur tileinkað trúarbragði og atriði um ísland voru svo sett inn aukalega til að þetta gæti talist um ísland en ekki trúarlag. Það er trúarfrelsi á íslandi og því er þetta lag óendanlega einhæft og efninu mjög óviðkomandi.
@ThornyRoseV Heimska flón, átt ekki skilið að vera Íslendingur fífl, Ísland er með þjóðkirkju og athugasemdir eins og þínar eru bara til skammar og að skrifa þetta á þjóðhátíðardaginn? Gerðu þjóðinni greiða og hunksastu einhvert annað.
@ThornyRoseV Þegiðu ógeðslegi róninn þinn! Ertu algjörlega heiladauður. þetta lag er besti þjóðsöngur allra tíma. Annað en það, þú hlítur að dást að amerísku ógeðunum. Brenndu í helvíti!
In August I will study in Reykjavík for a whole year, I'm so glad about it. I just love this island and the people. Don't join EU, stay out of it and have a more relaxed time in future. :)
This September we're going to Iceland for the 2nd time. This time we'll drive around the island. Last year we were pretty impressed by Iceland...so that's why we visit again. My personal opinion: If the world goes down in chaos..we'll move to Iceland!!! Though Iceland has had many problems in the last few years I think you (the Islanders) can be very proud and lucky that you live in a country like this. I wish I could same the same. Last year when I visited you....it felt like home!!

Excuse me for being a bit rude in applying so directly to you but I must get answers to my doubts. Many people claim that Iceland is a stunning destination with unearthly landscapes not to be encountered anywhere in the world. However, when I look at photos taken of Icenadic views, I do not get the impression there is anything to boast of . Well, there is some undeniable beauty but I think there are other countries in the far east and Europe which far exceed Iceland by beauty.So what's therush.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Pictures only convey part of the experience, so before you make a judgement or comparison, come and see for yourself. Then you can tell us whether you like it or not.
im from iceland proud and we are small band of peasants but strong hard working pepole and a small republic wich stands proud to the other bigger countrys of the world GUÐ BLESSI ÍSLAND :,)
@RGBRYN All true! A wonderful country with a pathology of independence and pride. How about being less like peasants and more like citizens of the world? The world WANTS you! Time to grow up and value connection over isolation.
@UrTheFakeOne I'm removing this comment becuase some of my best friends are middle eastern immigrants . It is so clean because we don't have filth like you here
@UrTheFakeOne I'm not blind, I recognize there are assholes like you in each and every country in the world. :) Every country has their assholes and bad apples, you are proudly your own country's asshole. :) Just please, don't come to Iceland and fuck it up for the rest of us. Thanks friend. :)
@91Kubson Yes... just imagine! You could be unemployed, under-educated, and as arrogant as a teenager high on hormones! One of the world's most beautiful places....but lost somewhere in the 11th Century. Best to stay where you are. Oh, and there is a reason the world is not dotted with Icelandic restaurants.
@SolofTarsus5 Sure thats why the standard of living is so high, and it has the second highest GDP in the world....people in iceland are happy living their life, jealous guys like you are not wanted
@Felinestance Yes.... sooooo jealous of dysfunctional government, a dead economy, and exceptionally rude men. You are like an island of teenagers. An absolutely great place to visit... but....well, somewhere with cafe life, better weather, and civilised behaviours will do for the rest of us, thank you.
@SolofTarsus5 yeah because the American economy is doing soooo much better, and the government in the US is definitely not corrupt. Americans are also very smart and have really healthy population as well as the best and safest cities on Earth. Crime is almost non existant in the US. Iceland is basically like Afghanistan. (By the way, Happy Opposite Day!)
@icefaxi Icelandic people seem to blame everyone else and not take a look at yourselves. You were ALL greedy and uncritical when your banks were lying to you and the world. You were fine with the corruption of Oddsson and nobody bothered at all to check HOW the banks were making money. When your "democracy" demanded you be responsible for the government YOU elected, you decided that (as always) it was time to be arrogant and angry. No humility. No apology, No responsibility. How very Iceland!
@icefaxi and how is it our fault that investors in England lost on an investment? Why do we have to pay for their mistakes? And if thats the argument you choose, then you have a shit load to answer to on behalf of your "democractically" elected government. Where is those weapons of mass destruction? When does America apologize for its fuck ups? Where are the slavery reperations even? The people in Iceland are not responsible for IceSave just as the American people are not responsible for Iraq
@SolofTarsus5 First of all I'm not from Iceland, second, to be saying stuff like that about one of the highest developed countries in the world you probably have had your encounters with those "exceptionally rude men". Don't speak shit...disfuntional goverment wtf, broken economy? that was 3 years ago...along with the rest of europes economy
@Felinestance Odd how you seem to think all is well in Iceland. The education ministry has closed all classes except reading, maths, and history. No more art. No more music. The country is bleeding intellectual assets fast. The financial system is totally wrecked. Next to no foreign currency can leave the country for any reason. There is a CRISIS in Iceland that you seem totally in denial about. You clearly have some problems keeping in touch with the facts.
You have no idea what you are talking about. Why are you even commenting on this video? "The education ministry has closed all classes except reading, maths, and history." ....????
@Luiginnn because it's close to Grimsey Island. And it's one of the most magic towns on the earth. After finishing my study on the university in Wrocław (Poland), my dream is to live there and explore this magnificent island :)
Early september I visited you country. What a wonderfull experience it was. I finally found a country where I could find some peace and rest. In the Netherlands its hard to find nowadays. And further more..... I think I can say Iceland could be a place for me to live. I envy you Icelanders....with such a beautifull country!!!
@KhmerD0g You dont know anything about Iceland , Iceland Is just doing the same thing as England did to Holland , refused to pay ! so suck it England !
iceland- the most breathtakeing nature i have ever seen. i can t wait to go there again. i wish i could live there. all the best for that nation! greetings from germany.
@KhmerD0g We're gettin back up again. But Ive read your comments below and its obvious you have some kind of issues so lets just leave it at this ;) Just do yourself a favor and grow up - with that fuckin attidute and stupid thinking you aint going nowhere.
speaking of going nowhere. Iceland has gone nowhere. it is stuck in the cycle of bankruptcy, political loathing, crocked business dealing, inflation and populace uprising. it is a mess in frozen Iceland. and don't forget Iceland is a designated terrorist country. white trash terrorist land. hahahaaaaaaaa
@KhmerD0g I had read a wonderful quote today on another youtube video comment, I will like to share it: "Arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics. Even if you win, you are still retarded". :)
cambodia has been shitty since american bombed it. then pol pot made it worst. it was beyond ordinary cambodians to do anything about it. we didn't have democracy like Iceland where the people have something to say about it.
the Icelandic people voted Geir Haarde, Bjorgvin Sigurdsson, and Arni Mathiesen to office and they fucked up iceland. so it was the Icelandic people fault. they voted the criminals to office. i guess the Icelandic people wanted to bankrupt its own country.
u Icelandic people are so gullible. u believe everything the politicians say? that is stupid. didn't u learn anything from George Bush's lies about WMDs? politicians lie to get elected. they say the things the voters wanted to hear.
the banksters, IMF and your politicians did a heck of a job of shutting up Iceland. hahahaaa. how is that for a bitchy frozen land you are living in? after 2 years Ice land is still and icebox, economically speaking #LOL
Hahaha Iceland is not covered in ice only dumb people like you actually believe that shit.
And the money thing wasn't all our fault ofc mostly it was the politicians fault but that's not the peoples fault they didn't do shit to make this happen the media talks a whole lot of bullshit and dumb people like you believe all that dumb fuck
@KhmerD0g Actually yes, they are quite capable of that. P.s. you're still the retard for thinking mentally disabled people can't surf the internet or type.
so u are calling a retard and yet retarded people capable of doing whatever normal people can. are u saying retarded people are equal to normal people? u sound pretty retarded.
retard or not all types of people in Iceland will suffer from economic blunders their bankers and politicians made. how is Iceland today? i detect Libya like revolution is shimmering in Iceland. it will explode soon. there will be blood flowing in Rickavick. #LOL
it is calm for now but the pressure is building and it will explode. u have ever heard of calm before the storm? economic hurricane will hit Iceland. start saying your pray.
icelandic people are not civilize. they are Viking people but one day they decided to be gay and named their capital RickyVicky. no wonder so many tourists visiting iceland.
@KhmerD0g at least Iceland has an economy. I really feel like just deleting any comment relating to KhmerDog on here, he really deemed himself to have an asshole flag.
@KhmerD0g Okay, first of all, learn to spell correctly and second, you don't make any sense whatsoever in the points that you are trying to make. And finally Iceland is actually rebuilding the economy. Please make sure of what you are saying before trying to make assumptions about other people.
which word did i misspelled? how are u going to rebuild Iceland when the economy is a wrecked and full of debts? your country still owes England and Denmark a lot of money.
@KhmerD0g You say "u" and you do not use correct grammar, you don't even have capital letters when you type. And a country still can start rebuilding itself, even if it has lots of debt.
so u are from Iceland. dead beat icelandic people. u need to pay up. England is calling out to you.
no, u don't know much about the dire situation in iceland. your politicians lie and u guys die. what ever happen to the Icelandic economic Tiger in early 2000s? i know, it was all an illusion. Icelandic blows jobs and bubbles, for examples, carry trade and speculation. how can 300,000 people take on debt that is at least 3 times its GDP.
no. i'm an unemployed Icelandic person. i got layoff at the height of the financial crisis in 2008 when Iceland went belly up. i couldn't find a job since, just like so many of my fellow Icelandic friends. lol
It seems you have been criticizing Iceland a lot these last few years. That must have taken quite some effort if I may say so. Don't you think it's time to leave the Icelanders alone? Why not bash another country? You know what....... maybe you can bash my country for a change. I'm from the Netherlands. I'm pretty sure there's plenty to bitch about us!! I'm really looking forward to your comments! :-)
ok. i will bash your never-everlands, the land of the street prostitutes. give me some time to find a good video of HO-LLand to comment on. are u from the Rottendamn city? i bet u are because your entire family grew up there. #LOL
@icefaxi I don't really care about my channel, my intentions for posting this video was to help Icelanders get pride in their country and what we have to offer. All the photos I took myself, so I figured I'd throw them in. Honestly, if a person has something bad to say about someone's country and their intentions are to offend them, then I feel sorry for that person because that means you have a small and damaged heart. I pray for you my friend.
+Eg er ekki alveg sammála því að setja "Icelandic Pride" í titilinn eins og það sé þýðing á "Ó Guð vors lands" en þetta er mjög falleg útgáfa af Lofsöngnum...hvaða kór er þetta ? Og hljómsveitin? ?
you guys were very smart in saying no to EU, i hope it helps i really do. now you guys should leave NATO you guys dont need to work with war criminals. Iceland is a peaceful nation.
This is the worlds most beautiful national anthem, i've never really felt it until now how amazing it is to be from Iceland and how lucky i am, im moving back home to Iceland in 2 months from Norway.
And i do not agree with my fellow Icelanders that "Ísland er land þitt" should be our anthem
Nei, sjálfstæði Íslands er aldrei að enda. Íslendingarnir voru farnir úr Noregi, þeir eru ekki að fara aftur til Noregs, eða að vera hluti af Noregi. :3
(og no vonar eg bare at denne teksten var grammatisk korrekt islandsk - målet dykkar er fordømt vanskeleg å læra seg!)
I'm an American trying to learn Icelandic, and I could really use a pen pal to help me out! Somebody please let me know if they're willing to help! Takk fyrir :)
@CK2012 Depends on what you call 'close' :p I can assure you, it doesn't sound close! :p I speak German, and I can't understand a thing :) Although they do have the same ancestor, Indo-Germanic, so in that way they are linked more closely than, say, Icelandic and Chinese :) But still, Icelandic is far more close to Norse, since it originated when colonists from Southwest-Norway settled in Iceland :)
@ImaginaryNightshade i'm from slovakia, i speak both german and english and for me it's far easier to read otherm germanic languages than to listen them. it's more understandable for me (at least for me). for example - i don't get a word of danish, but when it's written i've got a good idea what's the text about.
@vitacit Yes, it's indeed easier to understand another Germanic language when it's written than when it's spoken, because prounciation changed far more often than spelling. My native language is Dutch, and for Dutch people it's quite easy to understand written German, but most people don't understand a word of it when hearing someone speak German. (It doesn't really count for me because I study German but still :p) I know what you mean! :)
Iceland has remained the most true to Norwegian culture... They are the closest today to Norsemen. may they prosper.

@SolofTarsus5 yeah because the American economy is doing soooo much better, and the government in the US is definitely not corrupt.

@icefaxi Icelandic people seem to blame everyone else and not take a look at yourselves. You were ALL greedy and uncritical when your banks were lying to you and the world. You were fine with the corruption of Oddsson and nobody bothered at all to check HOW the banks were making money. When your "democracy" demanded you be responsible for the government YOU elected, you decided that (as always) it was time to be arrogant and angry. No humility. No apology, No responsibility. How very Iceland!
SolofTarsus5 1 year ago
@icefaxi and how is it our fault that investors in England lost on an investment? Why do we have to pay for their mistakes? And if thats the argument you choose, then you have a shit load to answer to on behalf of your "democractically" elected government. Where is those weapons of mass destruction? When does America apologize for its fuck ups? Where are the slavery reperations even? The people in Iceland are not responsible for IceSave just as the American people are not responsible for Iraq

@Felinestance Odd how you seem to think all is well in Iceland. The education ministry has closed all classes except reading, maths, and history. No more art. No more music. The country is bleeding intellectual assets fast. The financial system is totally wrecked. Next to no foreign currency can leave the country for any reason. There is a CRISIS in Iceland that you seem totally in denial about. You clearly have some problems keeping in touch with the facts.

cambodia has been shitty since american bombed it. then pol pot made it worst. it was beyond ordinary cambodians to do anything about it. we didn't have democracy like Iceland where the people have something to say about it.
the Icelandic people voted Geir Haarde, Bjorgvin Sigurdsson, and Arni Mathiesen to office and they fucked up iceland. so it was the Icelandic people fault. they voted the criminals to office. i guess the Icelandic people wanted to bankrupt its own country.

@CK2012 Depends on what you call 'close' :p I can assure you, it doesn't sound close! :p I speak German, and I can't understand a thing :) Although they do have the same ancestor, Indo-Germanic, so in that way they are linked more closely than, say, Icelandic and Chinese :) But still, Icelandic is far more close to Norse, since it originated when colonists from Southwest-Norway settled in Iceland :)

@ImaginaryNightshade i'm from slovakia, i speak both german and english and for me it's far easier to read otherm germanic languages than to listen them. it's more understandable for me (at least for me). for example - i don't get a word of danish, but when it's written i've got a good idea what's the text about.
vitacit 1 year ago
@vitacit Yes, it's indeed easier to understand another Germanic language when it's written than when it's spoken, because prounciation changed far more often than spelling. My native language is Dutch, and for Dutch people it's quite easy to understand written German, but most people don't understand a word of it when hearing someone speak German. (It doesn't really count for me because I study German but still :p) I know what you mean! :)
