Leningrad Cowboys - Happy Being Miserable

[LauraSmolenaers]

"You happy people, giving me the blues!" Love it :) go FINLAND!

[MazterGuitarz]

@LauraSmolenaers

True, the Fins are so Spezial..

And this tune is a wunderful resume of the nation (not) and the Finnish people(not)

but of their Scandinavian humour. (yes)

and their SISU, even if this song is an Anti-sisu song...!

Cheerz (or as they say in Finland:Kippis!)/ MazterGuitarz!

[SAHBfan]

They're Fins laughing at Russians ;-)

[resnullius977]

Yes, we are happy being miserable, but, you are unhappy being unmiserable, c est la vie, asi es el mundo.

[benho278]

Fine humor and a nice song.... Any more Leningrad own videos?

[tparveo]

Voi vi__u ma olen jo unohtanud kuin hyväd nad olivat :)

Peace:)

[KekkonenKalasti]

[JDCSS]

wierd

[jospi2]

Is this an original Leningrad Cowboys song or a cover?

[isverymad]

This is an original Leningrad Cowboys song, from the album "Terzo Mondo" (2000).

[DepthWave]

@jospi2 Original I'm pretty sure.... it's from an album of all originals

[stlnlnn]

[jakedjohnson]

[Jpeg13759]

Very nice song from Leningrad Cowboys...Classic

[Ryuzakji]

You guys know, the current singer in Leningrad Cowboys, Tipe Johnson :P

He was my music teacher in High School for 4 years ago believe it or not :)

[searats20]

That's so cool man!!!!

[Bonilafo]

"Nolo tengo":'s another one of them: you just get happy by listening to that mariachi-stylish song!

[dav1208]

hehe its niiiiice :) i never hear this leningrad cowboy song but great :D

[pontiacgpuk]

And I thought the Dutch were deliciously wacky!!! great way to lift a crap day!!

[mtnus]

what's that with the dutch?

:D

[pontiacgpuk]

All my Dutch friends have such a coolly surreal outlook on everything! Luv Hetten Des too!!

[mtnus]

ah yes... tht's just something dutch i guess... that day i was at chool and we were like talking crap... and.... ahh well why would i bother you?

[pontiacgpuk]

I'd be interested to hear, if you've got the time!

[dumbyeah]

That's cool, I like the Dutch too. This band, however, is Finnish.

[bladesquirl]

this songs the best

[darkcecil13]

amazing

[TheDeadGentleman]

Still love this song ^^

[nickdanger33]

Kylla! Kiitos Paljon for getting this on you tube, my favorite LC song by far. Hyvaa paivaa! (that's all the Finnish I know, be sure to visualize the two dots above every a). Hei Hei!

[dumbyeah]

No, don't visualize the the dots on every "a" since the "ä" is a totally different letter. The vovel "ä" represents say, how you pronounce for example the second letter in the name "Hank". If you spelled it with an "a" (without the dots), it would be pronounced as hunk (in Finnish, that is). Moreover, the "u" in Finnish is pronounced as the "u" in "Huey" or like the "o"'s in "too", mut hyvää päivää. I Hope you got it now. :D

[Pooortman]

LOL!! marha jó!:D w00t!

[deadjerusalem]

I found this video online years ago on some website but then it got taken down.  I'm so glad to finally find it again.

[Horstinkistan]

Nice song, though I only wonder what's with the 'accent'?

[dumbyeah]

Well I assume it's supposed be a parody of (happy) Caribbean reggae bands and that's where the accent is from.

[sketchbook82]

They're from Finland :-)

[TheDeadGentleman]

I love this song :)

[siim890]

cool

[PhilipineMan]

I don't get this song

[dumbyeah]

Yea, but it's Finnish, not Russian.

[dazombiewoof]

The music, the concept, the video execution, the humor, and overall quality of execution just smokes about everything I ever see domestically here. Their Global Balaika Show concert dvd is mind boggling, sadly only available region 2 PAL mode and probably best price on their website. My daughter is probably the only woman in Alabama who has a Leningrad Cowboys T-shirt.

[pontiacgpuk]

Now that's taking one-upmanship to new dizzy heights!! Lol!!

[isverymad]

Very Funny..! :)

[Paradoxia63]

Definately greatest band Finland has to offer.

[dazombiewoof]

Well done and definitely the theme song of a bunch of people I know. Funnier still if you understand the stereotypes about Finnish mindset.

[DiggermanNo1]

2 Finns walk into a bar and have a drink, when they are finished A say to B "want another one" B replies "are you here to drink or talk", told to me in O'Malley's bar on Yrjönkatu.

[grtcornholio]

simply great and worth watching! :D

[Leningradforever]

Oh, their hairdos, they're so... *faints* Fantastic! :D

[Leningradforever]

Oh, their hairdos, they're so... *faints* Fantastic! :D

[MegatronMcdonald]

They've done it again! I love these bastards!
