White Lion ~ The Road To Valhalla

[talesband]

who wrote this song first?

[TheOdinist]

I prefer Skrewdriver´s version. .

[despo1974]

This is the story of my Father ;)

[motleycrue24]

you cut out the best part

[Kurtti71]

iam glad to be scandinavian (swede) i have viking blood , when i die i will take that road, to be whit my forefathers...

[iumelen]

@Kurtti71 as will I (dansih) my scandinavian brother !

[manoftheyear20111]

@Kurtti71 då är vi 2 !

[mrjagermeister88]

ian stuart always like rock , for this covered this song,  so 14/88 hail victory

[Udolf88]

wow!

[dazujos]

skewdrivers version is Better!

Hail to The KKK!

[bohemianh]

cool video, need to find some Vikings and take the trip to Valhalla! Meet Robert Matthews in the Hall of Heros!

[twerpantine]

shite

[Angelboy1111]

Älskar låten!

[Azargled]

Great song, although I prefer the Skrewdriver version.

[FallaciousGee]

Politics and music should intermingle, because then all you have is idiots fighting each other online. Personally I like Saga's version, but that has nothing to do with her WP roots.

[NoteSlinger9]

Just think of going somewhere that you have to die bravely to get to,has a certain appeal to me i guess.you?

[mrjagermeister88]

the version of road to valhalla in unplugged by stigger and ian , was the best ballad ever than hail victory.......

[Ryofire]

Yes to heritage and ancient lore. Death to racism and white supremacy.

[nsminc]

Great song

[HERZIGBITCH9]

Much prefer skrewdrivers

[emmit2012]

I think Saga's version is the best.

[HERZIGBITCH9]

never heard that version i'll have to listen to it sometime

[SkunkApeDrone187]

there is a second version that White Lion did. it has guitar in the middle and its like five minutes long.

[FenristheWulf]

@SkunkApeDrone187 can you send me the link can´t find this version...

[SkunkApeDrone187]

the version of the song with guitar is on the album Anthology 83-89. The original version is on the first album Fight To Survive. I actually can't find this version that's only 2:42 long on any of their albums.

[JensMNielsen]

I removed the end from the song. I doludn't make a good ending, so I decied to remove the last part, and give it a better end, but I did use the original version

[mnf2]

En dag drar vi alle til Valhalla. Synes at Saga sin versjon er finere, men dette var den første jeg hørte og har ett spessielt forhold til.

[GaryVonGary]

What's the significance of Valhalla? Can someone please enlighten me?

[79rockstar]

for GaryVonGary:Valhalla in nordic mitology and in vikings religion is the place when the warriors who die in battle or with honor are hallowed . is like the paradise for cristians and the nirvana for musulman,a place for the right.the soul in valhalla are the soldier of odino and defender of asgard(nordic gods home) and igdrasil(life's tree for vikings) during ragnarok(end of the world for vikings).the people of valhalla can eating meat and make love with valkiries. bye :)

[NoteSlinger9]

@GaryVonGary To myself personally i've always thought dying in battle would be the greatest way to go out.Dying for what you choose to believe in is better than cancer or O'Ding any day

[79rockstar]

this song is written by mike trampenau lead vocals of the group white lion,not by nazi-group skrewdriver and not in memory of ian stuart donaldson 'cause they are dead in '93 and the song was written in '83 and is in the album fight for survive of white lion '84 ... is not a nazist song but a epic song who tell of the viking

people and its religion,not of mad delivery...some people don't know if is night or day!fuck off,ignorants nazists!!

[jeanpaulfelix]

wow ... thankyou so so much for the clarification.....

I love the song (this version, not that fat nazi fuck Donaldson's version...It's a shame that racist inbred rats hijacked it)))

[JanBo1488]

Einfach nur ScheiSSe!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JensMNielsen]

What the hell does that mean?

[GenMata]

@JensMNielsen He said. It's just shit.

He has poor taste

[Suomi124]

@JensMNielsen That means that he is a idiot ;)

[jalldrian]

Ive yet to hear anything by SAGA but I can see that I should with how many people mention the name in comments.

And to the person who left that half-ass reply to my comment before this...PISS OFF. I will be damned if some left wing whore is going to tell me to not say what I want and not expect me to not be pissed.

[JensMNielsen]

You don't have to be a leftwing, to hate nazis, you dump piece of shit. And in here, you don't just say whatever the fuck you want, you inbreed freak.

[jeanpaulfelix]

thankyou so so muc Jens...

Destroy fascism everywhere!!!

It's a shame this song got hijacked

[sfm992002]

@JensMNielsen If you hate haters, does that make you one of them? I think all should have freedom of speech - it lets you know who they are.

Just saying.

[BrianTheSaxon]

@JensMNielsen Of course not because most of the Nazis here and now are from the left wing

[skinnwalker13]

@JensMNielsen just because fucking skin head and nazi scum have hijacked this song doe`snt make it racist ! I`m of nordic heritage and trust me there is nothing racist about the song ! this politically correct shit really pisses me off when fools really have no idea what they are bitching about ! you owe every person of nordic descent an apology !

[JensMNielsen]

@skinnwalker13 I NEVER said it was. I know it's not a nazi song. So maybe you should stop your fucking bitching, because I do not owe anyone, an apology.

[motleycrue24]

@jalldrian dont say what you want

[DivSleipnir]

the version of SAGA is the best i`ve ever heard....

but anyways this is not bad greez =)

[jalldrian]

Skrewdriver is better.

HAIL IAN STUART DONALDSON

[JensMNielsen]

Go somewhere else, with all your nazi-shit, it don't belong here.

[Protolux]

Valhalla - the song that first made me listen to White Lion when I was just a kid - back in the 80`s. It's such a great song, and it still rocks my world!!

[snyggamannen]

so fuckin good!

[talon115]

Awesome and beautiful!

[zorrokissel]

Awesome Song...!!!

[Morisco23]

Skrewdriver's version is the best!

[slbspeed]

So keep your coments for screwdriver and not white lion

[Evilsator]

if this song sucked so bad why was it on Monsters of Rock CD top 10 and I havnt see Stuarts or Sagas version on anything like that...

[danne77]

Saga - The Road to Valhalla is much better

[simonatwarwick]

This is probably my favourite song ever. I had always thought, until a few minutes ago, that it was written by Skrewdriver. I first heard it a few years ago, back when I was interested in racial politics. Since then, my political views have changed considerably, but my love of this song had not. The knowledge that this was not written by a neo-Nazi will make listening to and playing it all the more pleasurable from now on.

[EternityInValhalla]

This version is awful.

Ian Stuart's version is much better.

[mulle123]

Song is written by the one and only Mike Tramp! One of White Lion's best songs!

[ItalianWarrior777]

what a beautiful song, I almost cried

[SWMADNESS]

SCREWDRIVER SUCKS!!!!!

[malice667]

skrewdriver verison is much better

[trustusyeahright]

i like theirs much better as well

[sgrate]

You are drunk. White Lion kicks Skredriver's version in the ass! Was that Nazi talking or singing. That sucked!

[KingAlanI]

@sgrate yeah, a lot of white power music sucks, lyrics aside, but Skrewdriver's version of this isn't as bad as some stuff.

[truemetalero]

One of my favorite songs

[TheRockin88]

There are some differences between the lyrics of WL & Skrewdriver.

Its really true, this sonf is from 1985 and Skrewdriver wasnt into ballads, they were ROCK.

But, SUCCESS oif Skrewdriver became this song popular, and recorded by many, not the White Lion.

Ian put respect.

Mike Tramp sings as an "IDOLS" amateurs trying to put some vocal "design" to the music. I didn't like it.

SAGA version on piano & voice is the better to me.

[analex345]

Skrewdriver where fucking nazi punk man get your facts strait;)

[Warddein]

doesn't mean his songs are bad...

This song can't be related to 'nazi' at all

[FallaciousGee]

Before you lecture, you might consider, y'know, actually writing a legible sentence. Seriously, I hate to be the grammar nazi here. But poor grammar undermines your whole point.

And, IMHO, Ian Stuart's sheer conviction, musical talent, and love for his race make him a hero in hisown right. He ws no less racist or ignorant than Bob Marley; and if you don't believe that, go back and listen to "Buffalo Soldier" one more time!

[KansasDead]

Marley's Grandfather was a white Englishman, and Bob was far from racist.

[FallaciousGee]

Soooo, you HAVEN"T heard the song?

[aiktg]

great. Just GREAT!!!

[stefanm86]

ok that's better that its white lion :)

[stefanm86]

is it a cover ? or original white lion song ?

this is beautiful

[JensMNielsen]

According to demonkiwi, and other users, it is the original, and demonkiwi seems to know what he is talking about, so I gotta say, I'm on his side.

[hellseger]

It's not the original. The original was made by Skrewdriver

[laksenfranorge]

heh nope...this is not a nazi song, im sorry..white lion would never cover this if skrewdriver made it first.

[tylerraysanford]

Yeah, the original version of this song is indeed by White Lion. It's off their very first album, Fight To Survive. :)

[preyator]

(Ian stewart- skrewdriver). singing about a young white nationalist.

[JensMNielsen]

This version is by White Lion.

[LifeLibertyLove]

He was just saying that was who it was written by since so many people sing it.

[patrioticJames]

I like this version a lot better then Skrewdriver & Saga's version. It's a lot easier to understand the lyrics, & it has a better production quality. Great song.

[knitedemon]

nice,gud infact...still,i wish if ud use the whole...

[zoro84321]

why did you cut the song of jusr as it was getting into it? great solo etc............please redo the video...other wise nice job

[JensMNielsen]

Because I was not able to make a good ending with the original end. It would ruin the video, and make it suck. So I'm not gonna redo it.

[HowardOfOz]

mike tramp sucks

[murezor]

Norsk Arisk Black Metal

[JensMNielsen]

What do you mean? The lead-singer is not from Norway,he is born in Denmark and moved to Spain at the age of 18. It has nothing to do with Norway. Unless you mean the vikings, but they may as well be from the rest of Scandinaiva...

[Ravendark82]

White Lion covering Skrewdriver?!

[MncDssctn]

Nope, this song was written by White Lion, it is various nazis who have covered White Lion, not the other way around.

[sherm1887]

no, google it. Ian Stuart donaldson is given credit for the lyris, sorry. just simply google and you'll see.

[MncDssctn]

I have the original White Lion-LP and Stuart is not credited for the lyrics.

[sherm1887]

your right the credit goes to N/A probably because White lion did not want to be associated with Skrewdriver. look, I'm not defending Nazi's, I'm just saying that the song was indeed written by Ian Stuart. Just simply google like I have and you'll see. Lots of bands have done Skrewdriver covers, despite their politics, they were a very influential band

[MncDssctn]

Well, since White Lion recorded the song long before Skrewdriver and I can't find any source who claims that Stuart indeed wrote the song (except biased nazi-sites) I don't think that he did. And N/A isn't credited for the lyrics on the LP. It just says 5. The Road To Valhalla (M. Tramp - V. Bratta)

[MncDssctn]

On the contrary, most sources says stuff like "On their CD Freedom What Freedom, Skrewdriver has a ballad called Epilogue - The Road To Valhalla. However, this song was originally written and performed by the 1980s band White Lion on their album Fight to Survive"

[demonkiwi]

Considering that White Lion released the song in 1985 on the album "Fight to Survive" and Ian Stewart released it in 1992 on "Freedom what Freedom" I'm gonna say that it's a white lion song and not a damn Nazi song...which wouldn't make sense anyway as this has nothing to do with white supremecy in anyway.

[Palo941]

Im positive its Vito Bratta and MIke Tramp who wrote it, If Ian Stuart Would have written it, it wouldn't have been a wise carrier move by White lion performing this song live since 1984, the song is still included in their repertoire theese days.

[GuardianOfTheNation]

There is nothing likes nazi music.

Sorry my English isn´t good thats why I talk in german....

Es ist einfach nur schwachsinnig eine Mythologie mit einer haltung zu vergleichen,

ihr scheiß Nazis sucht euch doch bitte mal was eigenes wenn es schon sein muss, das ist doch schon erbärmlich.

Das Lied hat rein gar nichts mit der Rechtsradikalen Szene zu tun.

Godlike Song.

[fusoperso]

please..this is not a nazi song!

[JensMNielsen]

Who say it is?

[fusoperso]

you can find this song used for video here youtube concerning Nazi and racist ideologies as if this were a song their anthem

[JensMNielsen]

Ohh, okay. Just thought, that you was talking about me, using it as a nazi-song.

[fusoperso]

absolutely no! I love this song and I thank you for having put. I regret that the nazi use this song...

[sherm1887]

well seeing Skrewdriver wrote and recorded this song first, of course White nationalists use the song, after all it's theirs.

[shareddreams]

Jens, what's the scene at 1:02 from?

[JensMNielsen]

I'm not sure, but I think it's from some sort of hotel, that is supposed to look like Valhalla. I've never been there, unfortunately, I just found the pic. on google, when I was searching for Valhalla.

[motleycrue24]

there first album is so awesome its so underrated....great song :D

[shareddreams]

is this really by White Lion?

[mulle123]

Sure is. Great song. But i like it more live! ^^

[WolfSS14]

Thanks for sharing.

White Lion did a great job on this song.

[valhalla72]

masterpiece.. that's all folks

[kidwasnthere]

Asians and Jews aren't smarter than anyone, but they want power and no Nordics have become lazy with our wealth. Therefore, all those who wish to keep their race alive, wake up, study hard, work hard, do not idol except to regain lost strength, do not foolishly intoxicate yourselves, replenish your minds and work for your dreams, become engineers and businessmen rather than working in cubicles. That is the job of the slaves of imperial Rome.

[kidwasnthere]

This country is a parallel to the Roman Empire, and Rome began to fall when the let themselves be ruled by conquered foreigners. Be discreet about every move. Act not with hate, smother your enemy in every field. When Nordics were at their Zenith they mastered all fields such as science politics military etc. If the Nordics want to regain their feigning power, we must come out of the dark. No race is smarter than another. We have become blinded by our success.

[kidwasnthere]

1buckeyfan, you are right, but be discreet about it Vote Ron Paul there is still a hope that he can be elected later Spread the word he is the one who will make this country the way it should be without killing anyone Minority groups are turning this country into their country. Although I do not hate any race, I feel my race rules this country and must fight to hold on to it, as our power is slipping.

[1buckeyfan]

Well done, this spirit must arise to save Europe and all of Western civilization now that we are being out bred and overrun. Awaken my kinsmen!

[laksenfranorge]

proud to be norwegian.
