Thanks for the comment!

I think their story of their inspiration from their visit to Chile makes this song special, in addition to it just being a great song!

A chileno living in Sweden, that's cool!

I just wonder how many Americans know who Victor Jara was (or Violeta Para, Mercedes Sosa, Atahualpa Yupanqui,etc)
