Äijö (Värttinä)

Aivan huippu! Jotenkin niin maagisen kuulosta kun lauletaan karjalan murteella/kielellä. Lisää tämmöstä musiikkia!!

On rumaa! Kuulostaa huonolta... Värttinällä ei ole mitään musiikkitajua. Ruma ääntämys, rumaa toistoa... ja ei päätä eikä häntää tekstissä....

Noo, mutta onneks sulla on niin hyvä musiikintaju ja enemmän omia myytyjä levyjä takana ku värttinällä, että sulla on varaa sanoa noin :D
Miten sä sit tekisit kansanmusiikkia paremmin?

reminds me of karelian blood pan cake ;-)

How to put it... Yes, I can find where the lyrics are when she's...cursing, summoning, reciting(?)... but I can't manage to say it so fast yet xD Yes, it's terribly long, I don't know what it means but I love how it sounds. And the most remarcable thing: I was looking forward to catch her "pitkähammaspaholainen" cause it's so long and took me a while to read it alone. Then I listened how she says it and... wow, that was warp factor 12 speed!

Hah, pitkähammaspaholainen.. how to translate it.. It's something like "long-teethed-evil", I don't know how to translate it.
In curse she tells to that snake to go back where it came from, and to take poisons and pain with it and neverever come back and so on.
But, yeah, Äijö looses this fight, he dies to that snake's bite in  the ens of the song.

Probably the best translation for pitkähammaspaholainen would be "fanged devil".
Pitkä ~ Long
Hammas ~ Tooth
Paholainen ~ Devil, evil spirit
Pitkähammas ~ Fang, fanged (in compound words)

Yeah, that would make more sense :D

Yeah, thanks, That really makes sence :o)

Oh, Thank you so very much :o) Well, if I'm going to have some problems with Finnish, I'm gonna ask you for help if you don't mind xD Thanks again, it means much to me.
