Ooh... You find great singers and poets in Canada: Gilles Vigneault, Félix Leclerc, Mes aïeux, Les Colocs, and for the poets, Michèle Lalonde and Nelligan, and also Service you was a poet who write in English, but died in France.
I like the album version better, it's slightly slower in tempo, doesn't feel rushed like this does, a bit. Still, an amazingly talented group of musicians, and this is a great song, with beautiful lyrics.
Yeah, the album version is better - the feeling gets rather lost here:(((((( Sad, as that joy radiating from the song in the album version is what makes it so phenomenal... love that one!
What exactly do mean by celtic women are made up of fakes... your are insulting my mothers and grandmothers here... but if you knew the history of the western isles you'd realize there a lot of Nordic blood in there
I don't ever remember sayting Celtic women are fakes. I was talking about the group Celtic Woman. As for the group, they are not fakes, but that group is definately a bit too theatrical for me.
As for the history of Ireland, I know enough. I was raised in an Irish American household and I am a Gaelic Polytheist. And yes, I know the Norse have had quite the influence there, what's your point???
If your reffering to the group celtic women not woman then I agree... There is no comparrison to Varttina and celtic women, thats my point, theres far better talent than that bunch in the bar on saturday singing songs
Maybe Mari's quite fat, but her smile and her positive energy make her my favourite member of the band; and now that the other two are very busy with Kuunkuiskaajat (I don't like that duo, by the way), I pin all my hopes on her.
@AxmxZ there would be more russia thts for sure if we wouldnt have stopped them in winter war xD Värttinä is great band :) theres lot of great things in finland world doesnt know or apprisiate ^^
Hi, I´m from Mexico and I like Värttinä. I don't know what does the song said but I like it very much and it sounds good. Thanks for this video.

No.
It means 'The mind of the bird'.
'Mielilintu' would mean 'The favourite bird'.

@Pulunen If you look at the Finnish lyrics the most appropriate translation in this context would be 'If I were a bird'

Given their strong emphasis on female tradition and experience, "distaff" would probably be a better translation.

I just noted that because they are a group of women singing the traditional music of their homeland, much like Celtic Woman.
