[multez]

[shehasmicrosoft]

@multez depressed death metfan

[outlawformetal614]

how someone could argue so stupidly over something like that while beauty like this is going on is beyond me

flex your online muscles somewhere else boys

[Filosofem2008]

pure awesomness...you haters will never knpw..burzum is all and you re nothing...hailllburzum...hail the delight....hail nothing...hail us......damn he traitors

[ArtOfRuin75]

@Filosofem2008 how old are you? 5? and why you speaking like those losers on rap videos? "Yo bro, haterz gonna hate for shizzle!" - Shut up and grow some balls, then grow some pubes on those balls

[Filosofem2008]

@ArtOfRuin75 go fuck yourself wanker

[ArtOfRuin75]

@Filosofem2008 So, you didn't like my comment so you're telling me to go pleasure myself? Great comeback! When you grow some genitals maybe you'll be able to do the same. Get a grip.

[Filosofem2008]

@ArtOfRuin75 ther only guy here who has to grow up his balls is you. i wasnt talking in "fuckin´rapperz style" or whatever...if you have a problem with if people hates those wankers out there..keep it for yourself

[ArtOfRuin75]

@Filosofem2008 Point that you're an idiot, proven. According to you, I should shut my mouth if I have a problem? Yet, in your first comment you claim that you have a problem with 'haters'. Double standards. Fool

[Filosofem2008]

@ArtOfRuin75 i was talking about burzum haters..idiot

how old are you? 16? was you even on this planet when i ve listend to burzum the first time? go home smartass

[FrequentFly3r]

@Filosofem2008 "was you even on this planet when i ve listend to burzum the first time?"

oh god

[mynameisjonas45]

Sometimes when I listen to Burzum in the dark by myself I feel like I'm having an out of body experience.

[volvopowerify]

Varg told me :D

[Osthropek]

whoever said that black metal was retarded fast-paced bullshit needs to shut the fuck up and be force-fed with this

[afvnut75]

Music like this makes you glad to be alive ! The first norwegian beethoven !

[afvnut75]

Millions of churches should burn to this all across europe ;)

[akudal964]

@afvnut75 :D Yesss

[MrGgfh666]

where is your god now...!!!

[afvnut75]

@MrGgfh666 hopefully up in flames ;)

[nightsaretodream]

this song is amazing ! is a masterpiece

this song is perfect , it takes me to others dimensions ...

this is fucking good ..

[valnes000]

the best part of the song 7:56-8:58

[NoxNoctisUmbra]

now thats badass! HAIL LIFE!

[bartenderofhell]

this song is so perfect........takes u beyond time and matter.......so unique, hail burzum!

[crazyluke001]

brilliant song

[pri16613]

mayhem sucks vivaaa burzum

[ShadowFiendNYDMCADM]

This is my favorite Burzum song ever .....pure fucking brillence

[ThePerbin]

@bmwolski : Thanks for the english translation of the lyrics. This song sounds even more beautiful now.

[TheInundation]

I love this way he does vocals here, I don't particularly care for the harsh whisper vocals he does now, but then I'm sure he doesn't give a fuck, like he always has...! Burzum forever

[Osthropek]

why can't varg sound like this anymore

[6Melo6death6]

That is... TRUE MUSIC !! 

[Rauser142]

Its awesome. Can somebody tell me what this song is about?

[bmwolski]

@Rauser142 It's very melancholic song, i try to translate it for in my broken english: "We had gone trough the forest To those Who told us about old times. We learned, that All hope gone forever. We heard elvish songs, and sound of water What was once, now gone. All desire and worry Who ruled and feelings That we couldn't feel. Theyre all gone. Forever. We are not dead. We never beeing alive." Very important for understand that lyrics is fact, that Varg inendified Tolkien elves with arayan race

[Rauser142]

@bmwolski

Thank you. Lyrics are as good as this song sounds.

[Ilikemustard]

@bmwolski

Actually he identified the Norse as the orcs and the Finns as the elves

[niggasjit]

@Rauser142 Let me give you a correct translation, as far as the words go. The lyrics are as follows: "In between the bushes we stare, at those reminiscent of the old times, who told us that hope is gone, forever.. We heard songs of the elves and the sound of running water. What once were, is now all gone. All the blood, all the longing and lament that once ruled. Those emotions that could once be touched, is now gone.. forever. We did not die - we never lived."

[niggasjit]

@Rauser142 Also feel free to contact me for other translations of Burzum and similar. I see too much retarded half-assed translating around youtube, I cant take much more. I want true Norwegian black metal to be translated and represented correctly to its fans.

[Zeloim23]

Varg's most beautiful and powerful composition.

[MrStefanSociety]

THANK YOU! Burzum is the best Black Metal band in history!

[regtracker]

never would have heard it had I stopped listening to the discography( the way the media player arranged the tracks,alot of ambient movie score type stuff lol). i'm just a metal guitar lover( heard some riffs in a documentary that interested me). the personal religeous conflict surrounding death metal is compelling.

[malaysianmetalhead]

Damn, intro is sick as hell!!

[P4nzerk93]

Those who once were? Am I right?

[666CthulhuIsMyBitch]

@P4nzerk93 I think it is "that which one was" referring to a time when paganism was strong in norway and christians had not arrived, which was certainly better.

[pryletoncyo]

We heard elf-song, and water that sildret. That which once was, er nu bort, for all time. How to try and do that?

[ilupir77]

06:58 "Don't mess with me!"

[DieEverybodyDie]

LOVE THIS SONG! Too bad he didn't burn down a synagogue.

[acidkomodo]

@DieEverybodyDie there's a synagogue in norway?

[rgiowizard]

that crow was hungry

[11METFAN11]

What the fuck when did youtube decide they could put ads on my videos

[LucifarGigartu]

@11METFAN11 when they became owned by google

[Olve451]

@11METFAN11 And when did Burzum decide you could put its songs on youtube?

[11METFAN11]

@Olve451 I put them on youtube so that you fucks could enjoy it you smart arse. Now either click on something else or shut the fuck up and listen

[Olve451]

@11METFAN11  just remember where you are, nothing is for free.

[Seanus32]

@11METFAN11 Exactly!!!

[David0estronca]

@11METFAN11 when they decided to keep it free, dumb bitch

[11METFAN11]

@David0estronca what an un-intelligent comment

[Aenrel]

@David0estronca y and burzum gets the money from advertisement on this video...

[Abon666]

@11METFAN11 Adblock is your friend.

[asdsdsdsadsadsadasds]

@11METFAN11

adblocker bro, you should get it

[DrDopenhagen]

A Twilight ad on a Burzum video? What bullshit is this?

[kdvb12345]

dunkelheit

[Diablo5554]

Freezing Moon and this are the best songs of black metal, EVER

[blackfloyd23]

this song illicits the desire to go to war for me... very well done Varg

[baalzebubdeffiu]

had to flag that ghetto dude. hail VARG

[Pryce2112]

@Tonyfaster lol

[nyhcbigpete187]

hate everyone! love burzum! im thirsty!

[jakobrlancaster]

This is beautiful. The psychological depth of this song floors me. Now, we all know that Varg is crazy, and we all know that the lyrical themes he chooses can sometimes be a little less than existential. But the music itself is heart-wrenching, touching, far-reaching, and beautiful. This is a masterpiece, not only of Metal, but of human expression.

[BlackPhoenix623]

@jakobrlancaster Very touched by your comment. Thx

[Morbidfog]

BURZUM = REAL BLACK METAL

[Nidarisk]

@Morbidfog Meh, he thinks black metal is a gay trend. Try Gorgoroth and Urgehal. They don`t fuck around like some bands do today..

[Morbidfog]

all of those who copy music done 30 years before, when listening to this, starts bitching around, its like s sindrome, this is a black metal brand called BURZUM

[Ilanney]

anyone no what the lyrics would be for this song? or where I can translate them??

[infernalone666]

@Ilanney

metal-archives

[P4nzerk93]

can you tell me if burzum has some melodic and atmospheric songs?

[11METFAN11]

@P4nzerk93 LOOK NO FUCKING FURTHER!!!!!

[TheRealVolanaro]

@P4nzerk93 if you mean just synth/ambient stuff, probably songs like "tomhet", "han som reiste" or "Rundgang Um Die Transzendentale Säule Der Singularität " but i think burzum albums are most effective when you listen to one all the way through, not just specific tracks, he also did a couple of albums entirely with synths in prison "Dauði Baldrs" and "Hliðskjálf" but neither of them can really match his other stuff, if you want to get one of those i think Hliðskjálf is the better of the 2

[P4nzerk93]

@TheRealVolanaro wow so much information. thanks man!

[extrememetal100]

@P4nzerk93

Is it a joke?!?

[metalheadude6]

@extrememetal100 haha ofcourse it is ^^

[surobakianinpo]

@P4nzerk93 well if you didn't listen to all of his albums (wich i hope u did), try albums hildskjalf and daudi baldrs. and my personal favorit song tomhet.

[decirlomismo]

,@P4nzerk93 Oh yeah actually he does lots of songs of the kind, for instance: Tomhet, Der Tod Wuotans, Dunkelheit, Móti Ragnarokum, Daudi Baldrs, Hermodr a Helferd, Illa Tithandi, Tuistos Herz, Frijôs einsames Trauern, Die Liebe Nerþus, Einfühlungsvermögen...

[matiasespina91]

If you like this song listen to Xathur's "Screaming at forgotten fears"

watch?v=6YedXRq3Pbo

[HerrByleth]

One of the best black metal songs ever made...

[saamohod]

When I listen to this music, I want to burn a church or two.

[MikeTheKingScorp1993]

Black Metal, Dark Ambient

[celtewinter]

@MikeTheKingScorp1993 no! depressive dark ambient : )

[CoolKwstas123]

What was once a wolf ...

[acidkomodo]

@CoolKwstas123 dont get it wrong dude,he's still a wolf..

[csehszlovakze]

Vi døde ikke

Vi har aldri levd - fucking awesome

[SuperWazzz]

this is all done by one man? fucking amazing

[akudal964]

@SuperWazzz it's amazing, yes.

[blue13icegr]

brilliant song one of my all time favorites

hail burzum

[Mayhem9HC]

Pure Darkness...

[gydur1]

What a POWER in this song!!! YEAAAHHH!!!

[uefachampionsleauge1]

bURZUM WILL RISE UP TO FUCK SOULS!!!FUCKING ASWOME!!

[Sparkost]

This is far beyond just music. It's like an Anthem to life itself

[FallenAngel333GR]

I CAN'T Listen Black/Death Metal but this song is a MASTERPIECE and Vikernes is an "Architect" of METAL music in general!

[VideoMask93]

Listening to this while doing Spanish homework...ironic?

[11METFAN11]

@VideoMask93 nope just means you know how to get shit done

[VideoMask93]

@11METFAN11 Maybe not. Shortly after posting that I had to turn it off so I could listen to some recordings....oops.

[daemonaeon]

@VideoMask93 Why ironic?

[VideoMask93]

@daemonaeon Varg was (is) notoriously racist.

[daemonaeon]

@VideoMask93 Yeah I know, yet he has many fans in Mexico and the rest of Latin America. However, I know Varg respects all cultures and races, he just doesn't want them to mix up. In that sense, Americans would'nt be welcome by Varg, even if they are white.

[VideoMask93]

@daemonaeon Well there goes my irony.

[GrowJunkieXL]

Good vibes

[akudal964]

very dark and cold

[81Szczery]

Absolutely pure, absolutely great!

[johnthegreek178]

Damn, this has to be the best sounding drumkit ever!

[Issverr]

@johnthegreek178 true that

[hipo360]

this is just a work of art... this song trascends all genres, bands, culture, countries, everybody must listen this son... this is fucking EPIC!

[redgunner7771]

@hipo360

[Neuroneos]

@hipo360 Absolutely. This is what Black Metal is all about.

[KingCrimson776]

@Neuroneos Varg would disagree

[Neuroneos]

@KingCrimson776 I don't care.

[celtewinter]

@Neuroneos No! Depressive Dark Ambient!

[Neuroneos]

@celtewinter Who cares ? Let's call it music and let's say it's marvelous music.

[IroNSol88]

The Best Burzum's song!

[Valtyr86]

Haunting.

[johanofulm]

beautyfull song, but very sad ...

[flyoverjovin]

I was never into black metal , but this is a great song..

[MathieuUu95]

40 000 people have listened to this video!

[MagnusBruce]

@MathieuUu95 And I'm sure 40,000 people would have liked it if they could!

This isn't the kind of song people listen to unless they're already a black metal fan, or at least a metal fan.

[VideoMask93]

@MagnusBruce I'll be honest, I'm not a black metal fan, mostly. This song did change me somewhat, but Burzum is still among a very few of Black Metal acts I "like." As to how I found this song? TV Tropes, which listed this under "Crowning Music of Awesome" for Burzum, and said it was one of the finest black metal songs of all time. I agree. By the way, I am a metalhead, but I usually listen to thrash, progressive, and traditional, with a bit of this and doom metal for good measure.

[MathieuUu95]

@MagnusBruce i know ;)

[MrFuckuagain]

With intri? It's just the complete song. . .

[MozBeettho]

@MrFuckuagain

A lot of songs in youtube hasn't go the intro part, thats why he putted (With intro!) in the title.

[IlirTIndustrial]

this is wonderful man .. Long live Varg

[Juostenkusten]

I just can't get it, but this song just cleares my mind of every burden i have. It doesn't lead me into darkness, it takes me out of there. This is true black metal!

[Juostenkusten]

Finland is like isengard and Norway shall be mordor. Great song!

[EmpyreanFrost]

What Varg believes in and says resonates in me..it sounds so right to me...

[urukihai4523]

@EmpyreanFrost i agree



[DantezMaritu]

Varg Vikernes can not be satanist. He does not believe in Christian God.

[alexanduhDanziggg]

I cannot find a better voice in all of black metal than his. Aarseth stated once that every black metal band that isn't satanic is poserish, and that it's ignorance to say you play black metal and not be evil...what a fucking idiot, he started black metal and he didn't get shit, just liked to play the role of the demon summoning wizard. Varg Vikernes, true genius.

[mk2vrjet]

Im glad to see there are people who enjoy this music and realize it is not about hatred and or satanism.

[alexanduhDanziggg]

@irembulan giggity

[mickeydeebassman]

Thee atmosphere of this song is truly spellbinding, combine that with the awesome riffs and his vocals, just at a loss for words

[daneliuk91]

This will never get old.. or ever forgotten.. only open minds to new feeling

[MrCoraxcrow]

brings 

[MrCoraxcrow]

I have not listened to this for so long I had almost forgotten, It beings back so much when played in the shed, I feel at peace with myself once again...

[11METFAN11]

@irembulan Get back to the kitchen

[csehszlovakze]

@11METFAN11 :D

[MrGonchou]

My favourite song ever. Intro is so beautiful...this song is full of feelings.

[TabooWolf]

@mypatrickisgreat "In this position, you are nothing"...I got nothing against you little dude but you're on a Black Metal video arguing against Black Metal to Black Metal fans. In this position...I'd advise you to concede defeat and walk away before someone takes it upon themselves to burn down your house and stab you 23 times. Friendly internet advice, sister :/

[11METFAN11]

@TabooWolf Hear hear wolf brother

[xicidarxi]

i dont even care about his racist thoughts or beliefs or even norse clans i just love his fucken sound!

[MrBlackshores]

@mypatrickisgreat I know... it is too great to be human....

[11METFAN11]

@mypatrickisgreat Screams just like your mother

[Issverr]

so she likes industrialized music with pop-ish and easy to understand vocal patterns and decide to troll about here... i still dont understand why all you people actually feed the troll instead of listening to the music... seriously your worst respond should be thumbing down her comments and that's it

[11METFAN11]

@Issverr Because its fuuuuuuun :)

[Issverr]

@11METFAN11 oh, allright then xD

[VideoMask93]

I find it oddly funny that this song isn't on the album of the almost-same name. Also, Nightwish...isn't that bad. Just a completely different brand of metal.

[hanssistevinter]

@mypatrickisgreat lol. burzum is too good for your nightwish ears

[Arrogantdick]

@mypatrickisgreat Dude..Nightwish is for chicks.......

[infernalone666]

@Arrogantdick

not just chicks. emo chicks

[11METFAN11]

@mypatrickisgreat I rest my case but no im the owner of this channel with this song and i can delete your stupid comments if you continue. Im not going to go too harsh on you because i know one day you'll appreciate and liek this. Im just saying as a warning to stop being stupid.

[metalslayer95]

@11METFAN11 Lol Happened to my friend he hated Burzum then after a while he is buying shirts and always listens to them.

[Empyreanmight]

During the fall I used to walk home from school at night and I would listen to this song and look up at the moon and stars and be hypnotized

[11METFAN11]

@mypatrickisgreat By symphonic metal im sure you mean wankery like dimmu borgir and symphony x. If you dont like black metal or burzum dont comment its a waste of my time replying to negativity. Fun. But a waste.

[11METFAN11]

@mypatrickisgreat The music suprises you?

[infernalone666]

det som en gang var, recapturing the breathtaking aura and identity of viking norway

the song's title does mean 'what once was' after all

[IsaacZumba19]

thumbs up, if yo listen at 3:06 something like Smell like teen spirit

[10pencils]

@IsaacZumba19 no where even close to teen spirit.....

[ggggg9717]

ВАРГ НИШТЯК! привет из МАГНИТКИ

[theonlyjessica78]

i fucking love this song. and i think the intro is perfect. <3

[BathorysGraveland]

Am I the only one here who actually thinks the intro is a little too long? Over 2 and a half minutes is simply over-doing it I think. Great song none the less.

[VideoMask93]

I must say, from my experience, Burzum is always a league above other black metal bands in terms of listenability. The others I find are either too senseless (like much of what I hear from Mayhem, sadly) or too outrightly Satanic (ie Gorgoroth). I know that Mayhem's considered a flagship black metal band, but it's stuff seems too based around blast beats and tremolo picking for my taste. Gorgoroth, I just hate. Sorry if I'm offending anybody with what I'm saying here.

[30billyclementine]

@VideoMask93

never apoligise for offending people mate, thats why europe is so fucked up these days , because people are afraid to say what they think incase it upsets some soft cunt.
