Not all the seeds blowed to the best land, some rooted where the land was steepest, but all wanted out, dreamed themselves big, but fate did not grant everyone the same soil. Some became straight poles in the sunshine side, other crooked in the cliffs in the shadow side. Many kinds of good wood I could mention, but don't search for hook staff material on the sunny side.
i´ve seen so many concerts but the most incredible was moddi in hannover -feinkost lampe. the atmosphere was very intimate and i enjoyed the little stories between the songs. if you have the chance to see a concert ,do it!
oh and since i´ve heard this song the first time, i have to hear it every day ..theres just nothing comparable to it.
@buddytheoc I don't speak his particular dialect, but I interpret the poem as being about seeds rolling down and settling in the steepest hill. It's a poem about the norwegian nature, you could say.
@kem8seven Actuall, it is about how having a tough life can make somebody a better person. -The seeds are symbolizing people, and 'all the seeds didn't get to grow in the same kind of soil' basically means that not everybody are given the same opportunities, but somehow, the seeds growing up away from sunshine turns out sturdier and sometimes more unique:)

never, ever, compare this man to sigur ros... he's in different level, he's much more than just a genius in music. :')

UNBELIVEABLE !!!
I`m from Germany - and was fixed by Moddy since he was in Hamburg (Germany)
This Song normally doesnt need a translation - because of that "Big-Feeling-Breeze" - but i`m also interested in what this Song means...
(Look for my video-Cut - token from ARTE-TV...)

Fantastisk låt til et rystende sterkt og gripende dikt.
Artisten er Pål Moddi Knutsen og venner.
Diktet er "Krokstav-emne" av Senja dikteren Helge Stangnes.
