Rajaton - Butterfly

[BlareStarfire101]

It is really beautiful :D makes the world happy when they sing

[AJpianoUK]

Main vocals sound very much like Within Temptation O.o

[middlespoon121706]

@NatyD14 I have loved Kokopelli from the first time I heard them at the Rocky Mountain Festival back in '03. I also heard Rajaton there for the first time and can't get enough of them!

[Emtyrench]

@NatyD14 I was in the Mississauga Children's Choir

[Emtyrench]

@iSeeZebras I was at festival 500 as well as a part of one of the children's choirs. They were absolutely stunning; especially at the grand finale concert <3

[ISeeZebras]

I heard this live at Festival 500 and it was gorgeous.

[NatyD14]

@ISeeZebras My choir was there too (kokopelli) :) (I, unfortunately, wasn't) They had a blast though! What group are you with?? Rajaton is awesome. They're soooo nice! Did you perform at the final concert with them at Fest 500?

[magster488]

@NatyD14 I LOVE KOKOPELLI.

[defeatingthenorm]

[stimmgabelfrosch]

Oh I want to sing it as well! Just heard a Swedish Choir who sang it and thought it's so great! You are amazing!!!

[2010CGIRL]

Oh wow! I've heard this song before and I definedly fell in love with this! I live in Finland, but I never known that they are from here! Good job!!

[VICTORIAthens]

so this is the real power of music! i live in Greece and i loved that song by the time i heard it. just like you guys from Australia, Finland.......and all over the world

[gesikah14]

This breaks my heart everytime I hear it... in a good way, if that is possible :) thank you for posting!

[ArryRamage]

ohhh that's smart she sings butterfly at the end and then waits with the "pa-das"... haha i'm singing the solo for my spring concert and i just love this song. <3 thanks for posting ^v^

[EmmyAquaLove96]

I am participating in the Kaleid competition with my choir, La Jeunesse, and these guys are starring at our concerts!!! Its going to be a lot of fun, and I've heard that we might be doing a workshop with them! I youtubed them to see what they sounded like, and Im excited now that i know they are so good

[jmalc04]

@EmmyAquaLove96 kaleid is not a competition! at all! but i am really glad you had fun with rajaton... were it not for opportunities like kaleid many young singers wouuld not have heard of this amazing group. they definitely seem to have a special place in their hearts for canadians, and the feeling is mutual!!

[theoriginaldanielle]

Wow

I loved that.

I

Might work with them for my choir

[fyfaan]

1.44 - 2.00 Just epic!

[Megan141516]

I am in this choir and I will be working with them

[z0nya]

Oh my gosh, I love this song, it always makes me cry! 1.47-1.50 tenor <3

[emanuelwaal]

i just cry when i see and hear this to... its the nicest thing ever heard:) <3 from Norway:)

[iknowWaltD]

i just cried

[lightupLala]

oh, this is so amazing.

[Annderss]

Jussi Chydenius' bass is extremely beautiful, I whis he had more solos!!

[shadox6662]

they could make a king of lions song *_*

[adepated]

I would love to sit in the middle of their circle and have them sing to me. I could only imagine the goose bumps I would get

[CAGEDxBUTTERFLY]

really good

love it

beautiful!!!!

[Tappisaatana]

Has Rajaton made this itself, or who's song is this ?

[wingsonwater]

This song was written by Mia Makaroff for Rajaton.

[Annderss]

Whoa! I didn't know Mia is a member! Thought she's "just" a TV producer...

[luckyo1222]

im pretty sure they made this....

[YstandAloneComplex]

Greetings from Mexico City, this was the first song i've heard from Rajaton, in a special transmission of the Tampereen vocal festival of this year, since then, i've love the way they sing, Rajaton is amazing. It's a shame i can't hear them live performing this song. u_u

[johnnaaa]

They were at our school last year.. it was amazing. We sang one song and they gave us tips how to sing better. And after that they kept a concert. :) I'm not telling this to boast... I just thought it would be nice to share this. :D

[Annderss]

Lucky you! I studied arts the same time they were studying music, and I remember meeting Essi and Jussi! Both of them had a music career before Rajaton, but they found each other, a bless to music!!

[jiedeng18]

These guys are my favourite, along with the Real Group.

[paulheinrichs]

crap junk, WHY the HECK have i never heard of them before. SO GOOD, i wanna be like them :) WOW A plus ;)

[MaerdYsatnaf]

No one does it like Rajaton. <333

[nattyvalencia]

gave me chills, you guys are crazy good!

[ribadii]

5/5

[sk8terguys1992]

[baskerville07]

holy goosebumps! lol

[Foodwoman1988]

I'm in australia, i'm seeing these guys in a few weeks time. luv them. when was this recorded?

[amilianna]

I saw them too. :D Was absolutely fabulous.

[McFoxdude]

where r these uys from?

[Ninamarjaana]

They are from Finland.

[todanceXtolive]

my goodness.. this is so much better than vids of their actual performance. i love them so much. :).

[alezz1]

who wants the mp3file, im me at alex_cristi_popica (yahoo mess. id)

[SeriousRetail]

I think the problem here is the digital recorder. I can tell they soudn amazing but the quality isnt so amazing.

[NatyD14]

hahah very true! it's an old camera, i'm really sorry! it's the best I could do at the time :) hope you enjoyed it nonetheless!

[alezz1]

the mp3 file sounds greater! :) trust me

[hannahaspin]

I completely disagree, I prefer them live, just shows how talented they are to have such a polished performance.

[shakeann]

Amazing! They can really sing!! I love it!!

[KingParrish904]

amazing.

i listen to this when i go to bed

:pp

[darkmeat1977]

Open your mind. And get a new keyboard. Your "G" key's stuck.

[nighthawk006]

This song is very addictive! *****

[CanadianEh91]

I love Rajaton's music. This song is one of my favourite's.

[helykopter]

well, maybe it's faster only in the beginnig like dennisvdt said

[helykopter]

i also think they sing a little faster than in cd version, but this sounds great too! they're so talented and you just can't stop listening this song :D

[Rigirl08]

This songs is the best my chior teacher showed it to us

[micky050]

yea ive listened to it like a hundred times!

[duckduck9]

me, too!

[micky050]

that is very beautiful!!!!

[elyseN23]

absolutely beautiful! can't stop listening to it.

the range and the ease in which they/she sings is astounding!

[janihjt]

Finnish acapella group

[dennisvdt]

ok, i take it back.. i only think the beginning was slightly too fast, but the rest was amazing to listen to. thanks for posting ;)

[dennisvdt]

i think it's a little too fast, good singing though :)

[vinonak]

They're completely amazing and unbelieveable! Heidän musiikki on niin kaunis! :) (sorry, I know it's not correct.. I'm a self-learner)

[ReeC55]

Rajaton<3 rakastan ^^

[Masaned]

Suomalaista osaamista! Go finns!

[fs9dude]

i saw them live last night

[blackpixiedust2008]

did u tape this? or did somebody else?

[NatyD14]

Yes, indeed I taped this. It was during their sound check at the dress rehearsal. My choir got to sing "We Walk In A Fog" and "Were You There" with them, but for this song we just got to watch them which was absolutely amazing!

[mikksto]

Isn't this almost exactly the same song as Slowhills "Come back as a butterfly"?

[lowtideflut]

Actually, Slowhill used a part of this song (recorded by Rajaton) in "Come back as a butterfly". I believe Rajaton and Slowhill work for the same record company.

[quedizni]

Essi (first(?) soprano) and Soila (alto) totally rock!

And the rest of them too, of course!

[fencinggirl9]

yeah its one of my favorite songs

[painfulbliss456]

so beautiful...

[njmaestro]

I like this song better than the recorded version. This song turned me into a fan :)

[njmaestro]

You can see her facial expressions and it puts feeling into the song. How they thought to make a song about a butterfly I don't know, but great result!

[duckduck9]

I agree

[UeberHilde]

@njmaestro : me, too! I don't like the overproduced sound of the recording on their album. This is much more raw and honest. Love it!

[duckduck9]

I love the "Love me" at 2:53 with the high note...that's just WOW

[vegi3tarian]

SAME!! That's my favourite part! How somebody can get that high out of the sky is so...magical!

[mikapoika89]

tää on nätti

[vipasss]

Nepakartojama, tikiuosi jie darkjarteli atvyks i Lietuva

[ButterflysLulaby]

[PunkRockChit]

[littletimmy2]

I was in that concert :) it was an amazing experience, getting to work with such talented (and genuinely nice) people. Nothing compares to seeing them live.

[febreeze14]

i just saw them tonight. and my god i am hooked! they are sooooo AMAZING! there are no words. they sound better in this video than the one of their music video

[StaryEyedWonder12]

i saw them today in tornonto, amazing!!!! <3

i'm sad i didn't get their new CD :( they were sold out

[DarkArmSaber]

I just came back from meeting with them. They just played with the Ontario Vocal Festivals Honor Choir. It was orgasmic..god..

[ingeniusware]

Indeed in London. I'm in Chorale at UWO.

[ingeniusware]

I love this group. We met and performed with them yesterday. They are fun-loving, humble, down-to-earth, incredible people.

[rdawg204]

in London?

[flylikeacow]

I think I could listen to Rajaton all day, everyday. This song is gorgeous!

[epiSGfreak9000]

i am soo exited for having the opportunity next tuesday, to join these amazing, talented individuals in a concert and rehersal sesions in toronto. I feel like i am unworthy to have been chosen to take part in this outstanding event. 80 person honor choir! it is going to be freaking amazing!

[starkittenx3]

amazing.x3 ilove it

[krynen123]

that girl in the middle looks kinda like reese whitherspoon

[musicmuse88]

Hey, if anyone has the music sheets of Rajatons Butterfly pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease contact me!!! Thanx

[delorfilinde]

They sound really tired compared to how I usually here them in concert. But that's totally understandable as it is the Winspear Centre, they were jet legged...And they are still absolutely fantastic and wonderful and I still can't thank them enough for allowing me to have a workshop with them. Super fantastic!! Can't wait until the concert in June. Should be great!

[jimbeem2]

"Fraudulent" is defined as gross misrepresentation. How are these people, who are blatantly singing in front of your face, misrepresenting themselves? Please enlighten me and tell me how your definition of fraud fits their description? My suggestion to you, good sir, is to purchase a dictionary and brush up on word definitions and spellings. You can start with the word, "fraudulEnt".

[jorgerob89]

Excelente trabajo!!! Could you come to Guatemalal!!! it would be great!!! :)

[11ADHD11]

they singin so beutifyl

[endlesssearchfortone]

I'm actually a heavy metal fan and I was touched by this type of music... don't know why theres any reason why ANYone with music sense wouldn't atleast respect these guys..

[kriszana]

I love them very uch!

[hillM0]

nope it's real. saw them live and sang with them live! Trust me.. totally real.

[momonicho]

That comment is nicer. Maybe trying just one comment, not too negative for only one of the videos of the same music. ;)

[sexysebastian]

point taken. It was lame of me.

[enzima]

Thank you for listening to constructive criticism Sebastian, you have reinstated my belief in humanity on the public internet.

I know your comment is a year old but it caught me by surprise among millions of idiotic argumenations and in combination with Rajatons beautiful performance it just made me very happy, so I wanted to acknowledge this in a way I think is way underrepresented on youtube.

So thank you!

[momonicho]

Hey sexysebation, maybe you should only post one bad comment on just one of these videos. Every single one I've seen so far has a predjy comment. Even ifyou disaprove of them, doesn't mean you have to make fun of them. Like, it's not like the actual group will read this, so if you're trying to insult anyone, who and how? By saying that Naty put a crappy video on? It was amazing. Think next time, will ya? (not trying to be mean, by the way)

[staceyparkhill]

I saw them live .. they are unbelievable

[jimbeem2]

Amazing, these people are wonderful. Thank you for posting this.

[kmaresz2]

I LOVE IT!!!

[myrkkyapinat]

that was absolutely stunning... I just stared at the screen with my mounth open. incredibly beautiful.

[exfactor003]

I've sang on that stage. We're doing this song for something in choir.

[FinlandMJfan]

eikä noi on niiin hyviä! :)

[RusseII]

Jestas että nää vetää hyvin. Ihana konsertti eilen!

[NatyD14]

They had also just been on a plane for an entire day as well (and the plane lost their luggage!!), so really... they're still amazing even JETLAGGED! haha

[CookieMonsterGoRawr]

Stunning.. x3

[Kogensu]

Awesome! Just incredible!

[newday38]

amazing..

[lorodrigo]

Moikka!!!

Olen brasilialainen ja minun ikävä Suomea (vai Suomesta....en muista) ja kun olin asunut Suomessa vuoden minun suosikki "bändi" oli Rajaton....

Kiitos paljon "posting:sta" sistä!!!!

Brasiliassa me sanomme että "meillä on SAUDADE" kun jotakin että rakastamme ei ole niin lähellä.

Siis, kiitos taas!

Rodrigo Lombardi

[nahistelija]

Suomea on oikea muoto. Toivottavasti ikäväsi päättyy mahdollisimman pian. :)

[essiidajosefina]

Tulisit vielä joskus käymään täällä Suomessa

[13139Allyson]

[ImperatorZor]

I love this song! I'm trying to get it as a garduation song this year! it would fit perfectly!

[mandygurl6]

[AndrewMarcell]

Thank you for posting this! I could never get tired of watching these small a cappella groups sing :).

Rajaton is amazing!

[Tsukasaru]

They got better as they went along. <333 It's only a sound check though, so for that, it's great~.

[duhneek]

The beginning was KINDA pitchy, even though they're amazing. By the middle, they nail it! Theyre so good. But yeah, its also hard to sing, so great job:)

[Doctors2Advocate]

they're god boy

[butterflies25]
