[SorathPotestatem]

holy crap... i love this song

[RyanVonFleming]

gjallahorn version is better! but great still

[Dnamsak]

Folk & rackares version är klart bäst enligt mej. Klart bäst. Någon som håller med? tror även att det var den som gjordes först. rätta mej om jag har fel.

I feel reminded to a german poem when listening to this song. It's called "Erlkönigs Tochter", and it tells the story of Sir Oluf who meets the daughter of the elven king the evening before he gets married. The elven king's daughter wants to dance with Sir Oluf and promises him things after he said he didn't want to dance with her since he marries tomorrow. In the end she curses him and he dies.

Seemingly for this song she learned men should get drunk before getting seduced.

@Gigascodex no. their version isnt bad, but this is traditional.

[Gigascodex]

Nordmans version är bättre! 

[DesSpielmannsWeib]

@hoellehimmel Stimmt :D Wunderschöne Lieder und man muss wohl oder übel nur mitsummen :D Ich glaube desswegen höre ich eigendlich ausschließlich nur deutsche Musik :D
