  • This show was pretty cheesy except for this part.

  • The only thing I ever liked about this series. Thanks for uploading.

  • @williamskidfears

    Sorry to hear that. You'll get better, though, don't worry. : )

  • I always wondered why there was only few ships Brunnen Gee could get to fight His Divine Shadow? Were other Brunnen Gee already exterminated or what? Or the attack was as sudden that only few ships could go to fight?

  • @lkrnpk Those ships were from there last war. There is an episode that explains it. Look for the opera episode. Kai sings on the episode.

  • @DarthDregan right, funny as I just watched I and was like ''ah!" and then remebered that I posted this question here. I probably thought that they'll never answer this question as it didn't seem relevent anymore after His Divine Shadow's demise (even though Mantrid still lives)

  • Interesting story. I saw this show once ages ago, and all I could remember of it was this song. Havent thought about this show or song for years. Then I heard this song on a video for a game I want to play, and I found myself singing along XD Thus began my search to find the original source, and here I am~

  • @celestielsigh cool story bro.

  • RIP Lex Gigeroff.

  • lmao god damnit, I had this chant stuck in my head on and off for years, and I just now decided to look it up... This show looked cooler when I was 8.

  • Ridiculously stirring for something that can't be more than twelve measures long, if that.

  • It's totally the Song of the Volga Boatmen. Stirring stuff though.

  • that musta been pretty cool scumhunter1966. i like how a you all just nodded at each other and carried on like "nuff said"

  • As a screenwriter I'd do this.In the beginning of the season Kai,Stan and Xev learn that somewhere in the Universe there is a time machine.After some adventures they find it and get a chance to turn back time and go to Brunnis-2 before it was destroyed.And the last scene should be like this scene where Brunnen-G are fighting with His Divine Shadow,but now,thanks to the Lexx,they gonna win the battle! So,Kai is alive,Brunnis is saved, and all the crew can happily live there!

  • @aaandronova Nice idea but if Brunnis-2 wasn't destroyed then none of the events of the series would have happened and as such they couldn't subsequently travel back in time to save the planet...

  • @peggwards The time machine that can turn back time and change a history is used in so many times in books, movies, plays. What's wrong with it now?

  • @aaandronova It was just a joke about how your idea would create a time paradox, that's all.

  • I really would like to hear that one sung as canon... should sound awesome

  • Is it just me, or does the Brunnen G battle hymn sound like a song or chant from a civilisation long past and long forgotten? I've always found it had a rather strange haunting quality that is very hard to find and suggests that it's based on something much older than it actually is...

  • @kirkland500 I read that the composer was of Russian descent, and, being Russian myself must admit I noticed some weird familiar quality about it, to the old music I used to hear there.

  • I wonder what chant the human pilots will sing when we take on a real life alien menace.

  • @thatguywiththeegg europe's the final countdown lol

  • @thatguywiththeegg "We Will Rock You", by Queen.

    Vote up if you agree.

  • @Zanyares I had the same thought.

  • @thatguywiththeegg Thirty Seconds to Mars - "Vox Populi" i think this would be good song to sing

  • @thatguywiththeegg The song that never ends.

  • @thatguywiththeegg "Still Alive."

  • 5 people have never been captain of the Lexx.

  • 5 people are Insects

  • Comment removed

  • I didn't even like Lexx that much... but FUCK do I LOVE this little song.

  • If anyone knows a place where I can download this tune for free online. Plz send me a message on here and let me know.

  • dont they eat a library in this show

  • I think I'm going to introduce several of my Warhammer buddies to this song, so when we are losing an Apoc game, we will start singing and start up the final charge. Of course, we will teach various comrades this song as well.

  • Best start to a movie/show ever!

  • One of the greatest little chanting tunes in the world.

  • Serious question. Does anyone know of a link where I can get the first four episodes from? i.e. the orig. prog? It was too good to lose.. had it on VHS.. but as you know.. obsolete...any help or info would be greatly appreciated!

  • @Gnobbee Have you considered Netflix? It's available instantly on there (sorry if I sound like a commercial)

  • @Bladerunner93 You can also find the entire series on Hulu.com for free.

  • Along with The Prisoner and Twin Peaks, Lexx was one of the three greatest TV shows of all time.

  • This song always gave me the cold chills when I heard it. It's somehow Holy. Space Rabbis.

  • Lexx was truly a original series not even Farscape was this "weird" in a way like so many other good things this series came very late to Sweden and went on ridicolusly late hours between 2 and 3 in the FRIGGIN MORNING!

  • I agree, the first season is lacking in alot of aspects, but the show really picks up and i'm now a huge fan. Just finished all 4 season about a day ago.

  • @sparrowhawk901

    Agree, this is one of those shows when you first watch it you don't know what to make of it, so you figure you better watch some more. In Season 2 it really picks up and shows more flavor. I really enjoyed this show for it's weirdness, adult content, humour and a sense of character struggle.

  • I tried watching this show but I just barely made it through the first episode. It seemed like it dragged on too long. Maybe I'm just spoiled by Farscape and and SG-1. This song was pretty cool though.

  • @SonOfCallaugh The first season is unlike the rest of the series - those eps are basically mini-movies, and (without getting flamed for it) the actress playing Zev is TERRIBLE! :D But they eventually replace her, and things really pick up in later seasons. Just get through the early eps for the sake of backstory, and you'll be glad you did. :)

  • still think this scene is amazeing and pulls you straight in lexx is so differnt to other sci fi stuff it has its own personailty if you know what i mean great funny and cool loved it as a child still do

  • 3 pricks have watched this video

  • @bradwolf07 Yes. And they look at me for a few minutes. And sometimes the say "How smart are you/?" and I often say "Not smart enough. I'm still stuck on this island." They laugh and so do I.

  • Ever since I have hummed this song over and over. A few people would hear it and say "Whats that song?" I would tell them "Its a war cry of a dead race. Dead, but never forgotten."

  • @DarthDregan How do they respond? And tell me, do you tell them this with a straight face?

  • @DarthDregan lol epic

  • @DarthDregan okay thats just super gay.

  • @GDI109 Why gay?

  • @DarthDregan okay its not gay but bro c'mon, i enjoy the little warchant too but thats just a super geeky thing to do.

  • @GDI109 so... If your here, you are a bit geeky too.

  • @DarthDregan dude theres a huge difference between listening to this and actually going out chanting it in public and if asked about it, telling people "its a war cry of a dead race. Dead, but never forgotten." But, no you're right i am slightly geeky as well im not going to deny it.

  • @GDI109 I don't chant it. Im not that crazy. I hum it.

    

  • @DarthDregan ahaha its okay bro, i like crazy ;) stay out of trouble, you're a good kid.

  • @GDI109 Um.... I hate to brake this to you, but im 29.

  • @DarthDregan well obviously, dont tell me you expect a 16 year old to know what Lexx was!!

  • @GDI109 No, I expect a 14 year old to know what Lexx was. And no, Im not going to get you that drink.... unless is poison.... coming right up sir.

  • @DarthDregan ahaha you're such a penis toucher TROLOLOL ;)

  • @GDI109 penis toucher? how talks like that? are you a Brit?

  • @DarthDregan how'd you know?

  • @DarthDregan "Penis Toucher" Dead giveaway.

  • @DarthDregan so are you going to touch my penis or not...?

  • @GDI109 NOT. Im not gay.

    

  • @DarthDregan i wasnt either until i laid my eyes on you baby.

  • @GDI109 You do know that the picture that I have is of a Star Wars figure right?

  • @DarthDregan now be a good lad and fetch me some drink, thats a good boy.

  • Not a big fan of Lexx, but this scene is great.

  • The 3 people who dislked this video were sent to the protein bank to provide organic material for his Divine Shadow.

  • @Alan123123123 the two additional people were turned into love slaves

  • Ah Lexx, the series that made Warhammer 40K look light and optimistic.

  • i can see why His Divine Shadow wiped out the Brunnen G, you don't send a single squadron of fighters to take out a planet destroying flagship, you use massive swarms of them with full support from capital ships and orbital guns if they're available

  • @aracaen Later episodes explain that the Brunnen G had almost forgotten their warrior past and became idol philosophers. Kai was one of the few that were willing to actually fight against His Divine Shadow and even then it was only after the oracle prompted him to. That and its assumed that HDS neutralized planetary defenses before moving the big gun into play as any smart strategists would do.

  • @scatmaster125 perhaps, just seems like a failure to me

  • love how he looks to the side to make sure he wasn't the only one up there.

  • 3 dislikes? Theese must be Prince, Mantrid and His Shadow. Great song. Great series.

  • I need this as a ringtone.

  • Why can't they make a long version of this song?!

  • I particularly like the version he sang in the moth after being accidentally programmed to be a maniacal serial killer by some stupid kids.

  • @scumhunter1966

    the picture you have painted is hilarious

  • best science fiction since star trek.

  • For a fictional son, it's damn stirring!

    Lexx Rocks and I love Xev, both of them Eva Haburmann and Xeenia Axberg!

  • @lackofattack technically half a person and half a bug :P

  • Anyone know any songs like this? i love the style but i want an actual group who sings like this.

  • This is THE show that originally got me into SciFi. Ah, how I loved the first season. I shall never tire of it. Though... I really wish they would of kept the original actor for Zev though... I liked her better then the replacement.

  • This song reminds me a little of Viking rowing chants out at sea or something...

  • ‎"Yo Way Yo

    Home Va Ray.

    Yo Way Rah.

    Jerhume Brunnen-G!"

  • No, it was not a parody. It was original and funny and stark.

  • You get a thumbs up from me. Brilliant battle song! First series was the best in my opinion. So brutal. Second was good too. Cant say I'm fond of the third. Is it worth watching the forth?

  • I caught myself humming this in the grocery store yesterday... Kai would have been proud. :o)

  • Who was the one person who disliked that? His divine shadow? perhaps it was mandrid.

  • @mnewf2002

    hahahaa!

  • @mnewf2002 hahahahahha i think it may have be his diveine shadow

  • @himbam339 mantrid destroyed the universe, altough yeah he was kind of a mix of the devine shadow and a human, not like the actual human host of the devine shadow tho... he was something else

  • @mnewf2002 Actually it was Fifi. :D

  • @mnewf2002

    Right now it seems like the first few members of the divine order.

  • @mnewf2002 mandrid always clicks multiple times, thats because he acted in human centipede!

  • @0Ruzena0 mandrid has all those arms too

  • It was sad, but at least he can finally be at peace. Just goes to show how time flows in a circle, from birth to life to death to afterlife/rebirth - or from a civilization's rise to power, reaching a peak, then falling, only for it to happen all over again. I'm still hoping for a Season 5 where Kai is reincarnated and isn't some kind of masochistic crazy actor person. Considering he wasn't alive but not fully dead, I think that reincarnation was missing a few Kai bits.

  • this show had to be a parody. it just had to be

  • @ElnAlter

    Of what? There are obvious references or reinterpretations throughout different episodes, true, and some could be considered parodies, but I can't think of a single show or book that would have all of it from Seasons 1 to 4 incorporated as one story. Personally, it wouldn't matter much to me if it was. I enjoyed it.

  • @ElnAlter Parody of what?

  • Comment removed

  • A good fight song no doubt. But the Klingon battle Hymn fron Star Trek TNG was a blood pumper to too. Yes? No?

  • this was one of the best shows no one was watching.

    Well thought out from beginning to end.

    I would love to see a full version of the song as well, but as far as I can tell, one has not yet been produced.

    Maybe if the fans ask enough times, they'll make it happen--- who knows?

    = DK =

  • This show is so over-the-top! I can't help but wonder if the creators made it as a joke XD. Anyway, it's hilariously awesome. I think I like it more than MST3K.

  • would like to be one of those 6... then i would sing a cool song just before my death XD

  • A few years back I was at a BBQ party and started humming this under my breath while getting my burger. The guy next to me picked up the tune and the next and the next. By the end of the song there are a dozen of us singing this full force. Completely spontaneous and completely awesome. After, we just nodded to each other and carried on. Everyone else was wtf was that?!?

  • @scumhunter1966

    PURE AWESOMNESS

  • @scumhunter1966 dude that is like a fantasy come true, i wish that would happen to me that would be so bloody awsome

  • @scumhunter1966 thats fucking awesome man. im always having times this pops back in my head an i start either singing it or humming it

  • @scumhunter1966 Really? Awesome!!!

  • @temptingsylph, bingobeawr, kittykat5787, mcflurey667 Ya, it was very awesome which is why I remember it so well. I just wish me and my partner would have remembered to start singing this when we were on our reality tv show (cwd2). That would have been a great pump-up before a driving challenge.

  • @scumhunter1966 That's awesome! What a cool story. Must've been a cool moment. I love this. Lexx is pure cheese at times, but something about this song gives me the chiils.

  • @scumhunter1966 While not this song the Same happened to me at a game night with a bunch of my friends. "The battle for Mosque Al'Amu." I started singing the first third of the round then another friend joined and another by the end we were chanting like a Crusading army going to war.......and everyone else just stared, except one girl Who I'm flattered to say clapped

  • @scumhunter1966 Oh how I wish I could have been apart of that!!! :D

  • @scumhunter1966 That's awesome.

  • @scumhunter1966 I just started watching the series, and can't get the song out of my head. I can totally see that happening. Wish I was there to see it!

  • @fernwood Here's some crazy for you... I knew this song before I actually knew it. Sounds crazy, but I could always remember this tune if I tried. Dunno where it came from, or whatever else. I watched this show when I was about 7, but I definitely didn't recall much of it. I'm 21 now and watching it all on Netflix. I turned on the first episode, and I was like '...WTF!!?'

  • @scumhunter1966 I work on subs, and I swear Ive heard whales singing this

  • Comment removed

  • @scumhunter1966 That never happened, did it?

  • @scumhunter1966 so jealous of you! :O i want to know people who like lexx!

  • @scumhunter1966

    Thye probably thought you were freemasons.

  • @scumhunter1966 moments such as yours are what make life just that much better

  • @scumhunter1966 Dude, thats the single most epic thing that I've heard so far. :D

  • @scumhunter1966 LOL!!

  • @scumhunter1966 that sounds awesome and terrifying

  • @scumhunter1966 That's fucking BADASS! I really wish I could have been there. Who new so many people knew this song!?

  • @scumhunter1966 The first rule of Geek Club is you do not talk about Geek Club

  • @scumhunter1966 That is quite an epic anecdote.

  • @scumhunter1966 lol ;]

  • @scumhunter1966 Was this in Canada?

  • Nice job with the lyrics and translations. Haven't seen them up on youtube yet.

    I wish they gave us a long version of this at some point.
