In English, this song is called ‘The Call of the Mountains’ however the English version, which has a music video I will post below is NOT the version on my playlist:

Wise men have said that you haven’t heard a song until you’ve heard it in the band’s native tongue. Honestly… yeah… truer words have never been spoken. Even if you don’t speak the language, the vocals just seem to mesh a lot better with the music…
Or maybe it’s just that I find the Swiss language absolutely beautiful… or even more so the whole culture of the old Swiss-Scandinavian area some of the most interesting ever, as should any High Fantasy-loving geek.
Anyway… as promised…
Ugh… I mean its not bad. It sounds nice, but the original (I think it’s the original anyway) is far superior. I’d recommend adding that to a playlist.
When to listen: Call of the Mountains? This is a call to adventure song. Listen to this when your hero first realizes the adventure that s/he must undergo.
