The Last Kingdom Playlist
Inspired by the novel by Bernard Cornwell
Playlist Overview
These songs are mostly of classical or folk genre because of the historical period and medieval/"viking" setting.
Song 1: "Dragonborn" by Jeremy Soule
Lyrics: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Song_of_the_Dragonborn#Lyrics
Song 2: "If I had a Heart" by Fever Ray
With it being the theme to the television series, "Vikings", its only appropriate that it fits in the part where the Danes go "Viking" and raid the land. Perhaps this isn't what "Viking" music sounded like, but it definitely gives some war time vibes.
Song 3: "Helvegen (The Way To Hel)" by Wardruna
Lyrics: http://lyrics.wikia.com/wiki/Wardruna:Helvegen
Song 4: "The Ecstasy of Gold" by Ennio Morricone
I realize this is a western tune, however this song is rather epic, it would go great with the quickly rising climax of the young prince battling a legendary warrior who was once his ally. So, this may not be a western, but it deserves a song for the comparable showdown.
