The bys in my dear jome town have been doing some small scale mummering. This song is to a Newfoundlander what just about any other Christmas song is to any mainlander. It's a part of our Christmas.
i hate how people all call us "NEWFIES" it may not be so offence to yous but i knows that its some offence to me! I wish people would just call us all Newfoundlanders!! I think then i would give more people respect if they called us "Newfoundlanders"
@sarah4673 We call each other Newfies. We call ourselves Newfies. It's a source of pride. Depending on the context, it could be like calling someone a Nigger with stereotypes, or it could be a wonderful grand compliment.
@TheRimDoctor yeah will i thinks its some thing that if you were an older person you wouldn't want to be call a newfie would you !? i know that people are calling ourselves newfies and showing pride but i am someone that i belevie that you should be calling us Newfoundlanders!! you know once one person starts calling us newfies its going to be every one calling us newifes!! its like some one meets a dumb newfie and they think "well all newfies are dumb!! same thing!! b'y
proud to be a newfoundlander, i remember growing up and spending christmas at my grandparents house when the whole family was there, i remember it just as this video shows it.
People can make fun all day wants luv dis!! Im only 10 but im very proud to be a newfie!! Actually just today in schoolnwr had a christmas dinner my class was mummers!!! I luved it Mery Christmas NEWFIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know's I wouldn't have the headache if I had to look at that wallpaper and floor every day. I thinks I saw a feller makin' off with Nan's purse....what a crowd!
@dudefromtherock Fun fact: That is actually MY nan. Well, great-grandmother. Miss Janet Baker. I am not kidding. Every time I break open the Purity Syrup for Christmas I think of her.
What an amazing song. I remember in the late 90s a bunch of kids in their late teens went mummering lol I never tried it though. I was probably 8 or 9. But did it ever look like fun. My big sister who was probably 15 or 16, and was always a very small girl, managed to fit herself in a PILLOW CASE and managed to walk around like that lol probably had her arms sticking out too some how. I can't quite recall. But my face is starting to hurt from smiling so much from the song and memories :)
i'm not a newfie, but i am from the east coast . n.s. i miss the place dearly, the people, the music, and a way of life that is disappearing. it's sad. i never met you sim, but thanks for music that has been a part of my life for as far back as i can remember
