It makes me feel like a complete douche every time I pull this argument but here goes anyway...it's not just my ears but my tertiary musicology education telling me this is music is based in Celtic folk music. Dunno why you guys are talking about geography. Sure, I can hear some of that Finnish hoompa (or whatever) **** in Trollfinn but it is still heavily Celtic in nature (and that hoompa(?) stuff is hardly folk music anyway).
what is folk music anyway?
Finnish is about the lyrics man
Ei tm tytt, ei tm tytt
ky joka pojan rekeen.
Ei tm tytt, ei tm tytt
kay joka pojan rekeen,
:,: ennenkuin ajaa, liinakkovarsa
pappani oven eteen. :,:
:,: Pappani talo kivinen talo
heilani talo puinen, :,:
:,: en ole tytt poikain tytt
vaikk' olen naurusuinen. :,:
:,: Istutin oksan vaahteran oksan,
taisikin olla tammi. :,:
:,: harvoin sua nhd saan,
muistella useammin. :,:
:,: Heilani jtti hyvsti jtti,
kielsi hn suremasta, :,:
:,: kielsi hn toisten poikain kanssa
seurustelemasta. :,:
:,: Tuolta se nkyy punanen talo
valkean talon takaa, :,:
:,: valkean talon vieterisohvas
tn tytn heili makaa. :,:
:,: Pelimanni se perpenkill
soitteli haitarilla, :,:
:,: Sotkamon Jussi hilsunsa kanssa
nytti niin mukavalta. :,:
now that's what I mean. :icon_cheers:
