  • 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.

  • in the death of winter, this Finnish music.... keeps me warm; chilling winds and inexhaustible snow  keep me from melting!

  • Susan Aho <3

  • J'espère un jour voir Varttina en concert, cela doit être chouette !

  • Notice Mari is wearing elevator shoes.

  • I actually know the words of this song, even if Im Norwegian :) Its quite fun to sing :D

  • I love the lyrics <3

  • Mari <3

  • Chista no mmi piaci pe' nnenti!

  • He also happens to be one of the best f****n' drummers I've ever seen.

  • The little drummer boy is just drop dead gorgeous. :P

  • @jbog1618 Haha, I'll take Lassi Logren (The Violinist/Fiddler). ~<3

  • im glad i am irish!

    The song is good though.. I like it.

  • this song means favorite bird

  • 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'

  • Close. It means the bird's mind.

  • more Värttinä girls - you can find in you tube

    "Duo Kuunkuiskaajat - Taivaallinen"

  • Why am I Canadian and not Finnish?

  • 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.

  • Wriceth.

    You present father may be europeans, may be indians, like aymara(they was a great worrior ).

    So fuc.... what

    I`ll must have to be visit on Chiles South, Patagonia

    Some beaytifull day i move to Patagonia..

  • why im chilean and not even european?

  • Ayame-Chan, Värttinä is finnish word for a spindle, (this part of spinning-wheel, where Cinderella hurt her finger)

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

  • I like this version better , has more pep.

  • why am i dutch and not finnish lol great vid song by the way(Y) great band:D

  • why am i italian and not dutch :( !

  • good one and maybe we can learn the languages? is that a good idea?:P

  • why am i finnish and not italian :( !

  • I'd also prefer to be finnish rather than italian, do you want to keep in touch and visit Italy or learn languages?

  • 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!

  • I like varttina,their music it is so happy,the girls are so beatiful too.

  • What's the drummer's name?

  • Jaakko Lukkarinen

  • ALSO italy listen to VARTTINA... and it is very very good! finnish is like italian: so much vowels!

  • and of course the rest of the band as well

  • gosh, such amazing are these girls... just amazing

  • Suuri korpi kotinani,kotinani, korpi kotinani

    Päällä katto katajainen, katajainen, katto katajainen

    Rannat kierrän kujat kuljen,

    kujat kuljen, rannat kujat kuljen

    Ahon laidat alittelen,

    alittelen, laidat alittelen

    Lenteleisin kuin koivunlehti

    Liiteleisin kuin lintu pieni

    Vaan en oo lintu lentäjäksi

    Koivunlehtenä liehuvaksi...

  • @Belphegor83

    Kiitos!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

  • End of sorrows, the bird's mind will fly with these three...Thanks.

  • This is the kind of music I want to explore. I know nothing of the Finnish language, but the music of Varttina is new and refreshing to me.

  • please What does Värttinä mean ?

  • A spindle

  • Comment removed

  • Very engaging! I always felt the version I have kind of dragged. . . .

  • Proud to be from Finland! :D

  • Wonderful. A kiss from Italy!!

  • Help me please to find the original text of the song

  • simply amazing!!!!!!!!witches & wizards???

  • Egads!?!

    What a comparative!

    V is soooooooo much better than CW.

  • XD

    I know....I'm sorry. I actually enjoy listening to Varttina.

    Celtic Woman is made up of fakes...

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

  • 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

  • Lol, this is so great, those 3 girls make me smile :D I don't know Finnish but this sounds good to me Haha.

  • i love whats happening in the base of that wonderful track... great work on the base and esp the drums

    and i'm so glad i have a subwoofer

    WHY CAN'T I FIND AN ENGLISH TRANSLATION

  • Ihana, ihana Värttinä! Olisin päässyt livenä katsomaan, mutta en tiennyt keikasta mitään ennen kuin luin seuraavana päivänä lehdestä. :(

    Tiedottakoot paremmin, sanon minä!

  • Beautiful !!

  • That Language is old finnish.... ;D

    Some 100-500 years ago..... ;DD

  • That Language is old finnish.... ;D

    Some 100-500 years ago..... ;DD

  • Finnish language is some 2000-> years old.

  • Finnish is beautiful, Karelian is beautiful, the Varttina girls are beautiful - the world would be an uglier place without Finns. :))

  • aaaw... ^^ *blush*

  • Oh! Come on.  Slow down.

  • Oh, thanks! <3 Hihii, I live in South Karelia and speak Karelian dialect :)

  • @Dotadict0

    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 ^^

  • and it sounds like a happy-hippie bird.absolutely faboulous.

  • I think it's a very beautiful song.

    A large woodland as my home,

    A roof of juniper overhead,

    I range the beaches, pass through alleys (??),

    I go below the glade edges,

    A large woodland as my home,

    etc. etc.

  • Bombichabs: It means "bird's mind"
