ja nyt huomasin että olet vielä suomalainen :D kyllähän sulla oli pointtia mutta kyllähän pohjantähden alla elämisellä vihjataan suomessa elämiseen...
i'm sorry but when we finnish people talk about living under the north star we mean living in finland :D dont mean to diss you but that what it means. And i know i'm from finland. :D loistava kappale karilta ja valolta, mutta mitä muutakaan näiltä hyviltä artisteilta voi odottaa. peace<3
Sure, living under the north star means living in Finland, but jutsu56 is talking about the lyrics of this song in general: it, indeed, is about the hard life on our earthly home and about the easier life afterwards. Don't you think? For example: "Täällä sydän huokailee ja itku silmän täyttää, siellä sydän riemuitsee ja silmä riemun näyttää."
@nikolasheartagram89 The name of this song is "Here below the North Star". It tells that it is not easy to live on the Earth but behind the stars we'll get another home (the Heaven) where all will be better.
That's your opinion. It seems that you're from Finland (like me) so maybe you're biased :). I actually think the finnish language is more beautiful in a song than otherwise. It can be a bit clumsy in general but in songs its okay.
The text is originally a children's poem by Juhana Fredrik Granlund from 1863. Here an excellent translation by Keith Bosley (from the anthology Skating on the Sea, Poetry from Finland, Bloodaxe Books, 1997):
This song reminds me of my granpa who used to sing this all the time. I allways feel like crying when I hear this. Ville Valo has the bestmale voice in entire Finland (Kari is also great, I just don't like his music in general). Ville could do better than HIM, but it's his choice, right?
@JessSari061 Ville Valo has healthy interest in many music genres and specially traditional old Finnish music, if you ask me. I greatly appreciate Ville Valo's courage to record/participate in projects from really different genre as HIM is his "daily bread", so to say.
@Blade69mm He sings at the beggining together with Kari, then by himself at 0:23. After that it's Kari Tapio (sometimes the two voices sound very similar to me, I suppose Kari is a baritone, too? That would explain the similarity a bit, but I am no expert). Ville by himself at 1:23. The two artists together at 1:58. It's beautiful :)
How could somebody dislike this? :(((

The text is originally a children's poem by Juhana Fredrik Granlund from 1863. Here an excellent translation by Keith Bosley (from the anthology Skating on the Sea, Poetry from Finland, Bloodaxe Books, 1997):
Here under the North Star
is our earthly home,
but beyond the stars lies
that to which we come.
Here like flowers we have but
little time to go:
there life will be endless
as the angels know.
Subspindle 2 years ago 67
Here the hear is sighing,
weeping fills the eye:
there all hearts are happy,
eyes are full of joy.
There on wings of hope I
send my little heart:
there is my true homeland,
there I will depart.
