08 Feb 2010 : Folk songs

I have always had a thing for folk songs - and i still do. It is quite special to listen to old folk songs and learn abit about the culture or the music tradition. It makes me happy. At my school, we sing folk songs from Denmark, Sweden and some of the other Scandinavian countries. Right now the song playing in my mind is the Swedish (but some sources say that its of Finnish origins) song, "Vem kan segla förutan vind". The video is below :) It is asking who can sail without wind or oars, and that i can sail without wind or oars. And maybe oneday i will be able to converse in swedish :)

  1. Oh yes, this is a nice one. I think it has a Danish translation as well - but the original is better (also for your Swedish vocabulary :))
