Incredible.  The song is formed of an excerpt from Havamal, which is a medieval Scandinavian work presenting the wisdom of Odin.   Cattle die kinsmen die all men are mortal. Words of praise will never perish nor a noble name. [MEDIA=youtube]tXvNARlFWek[/MEDIA]  King by The Romonovs not sure why this isn’t on Spotify anymore, it used to be.  Just kinda dark and beautiful. [MEDIA=youtube]iJBzLdFo81Y[/MEDIA]  Garth Brooks, Standing Outside The Fire. I don’t listen to a lot of country music, but this guy. This guy gets it.  This one is probably my favorite,  [MEDIA=youtube]_PX4mDbIYB0[/MEDIA]  Shawn James, American Hearts. The song is on Spotify, but this version is something special. They were at a wolf preserve, and were in a place that visitors normally don’t go, where the less well behaved wolves roam, with very little way of being safe, and the guy who took them there was like “hey why don’t ya play a song for the wolves, bud?” anyway the wolves howling adds something, and music is just different when outside in the snow.</blockquote>
