  • I really dislike the "Native American" version of it, because I am native and I just can't stand it when people (in this case some German guy) take something and sell it as Native American. I do however love the Sami version of this song.

  • The unbreakable link that the Sami and American Indians have with nature is reflected in their music. Although they are separate cultures they have this innate and powerful bond. It was wrong for the Sami to have their music used in such a disingenuous way and because of it , they should benefit from any profit as well. Credit must be given to the Sami for their music is too beautiful to be hidden from the world.

  • @satg108 As what it comes heritage of Sami's and Indigenous people in North America and South America it's important to try to reserve the cultures, languages and handicrafts of them all. We have a lot to learn from the ancestors of all those cultures. Look for older video's of Angelin Tytöt for joik by Finnish Sami's and look for Mari Boine to learn more about great Norwegian Sami who have fought to preserve Sami heritage.

  • didnt know this was a sami joik- glad to put credit where it is due. great song!

  • They stole this song from the Native Americans!

  • @Innkaris Read the top comment. However i dont know the truth, but i love both versions.
