  • What language are they singing at? Is it Scottish people singing in Swedish or something like that?

    It's a beautiful song however.

  • We're singing in Scots and Swedish. Malinky is from Scotland, Ranarim from Sweden. The song exists in both traditions, so we did a version in both languages. Hope that explains it! Thanks for the compliment :)

  • Where can I get a hold of the whole concert?

  • Hi Blissmo, I'm afraid we don't have the whole concert on video, just a few songs. If I get time I will post some others up soon. Thanks for your interest!

see all

  • wow! i heard about Malinky and Ranarim both on a celtic music radio show from Boston great show by the way, and i like both bands i never thought they would play together. Wait, is the uploader of the video a member of Malinky?? OMG! great to see your music!!!! traditional folk is the best thanks for sharing this, greetings from Panama :)

  • Amazing. Where, oh where can i find text and melody.

  • my dialect is called nethersaxon, i live at the border of holland-germany. and the grammar is realy close to the anglosaxon grammar.

    like in old english they qwould prabably have said: mine wife (pronounced as: meene weeve) to my wife.

    and in twentsch we say: mien wief. (meen weef)

    and there are a few things more which are almost the same :)

  • Cool (: I would like to study Anglosaxon one day, and add it to my "library" of language-knowledge :,D

    Is your dialect close to original Anglosaxon? (:

  • i have an anglosaxon dutch dialect :) named twentsch

  • Amazing stuff this.

  • i cant believe so many people watch this crap steven!!! time you got a proper job, or let me join the band!!!

  • P.S. You guys (Malinky) is amazing too (; The two sisters is also one of my favourite nordic fairytales! <3 Thank you for this video! D.S.

  • This is amazing, not just musically, but also by language. I am Swedish myself and have a great interest in language, and maybe especially the anglo saxon and norse branches! When I listen to this, it seems like I can understand a great deal without translation! I feel both happy and proud that our traditions and languages are so closely related.

    Btw. Ranarim is my favourite folk-band, they perform extremely well both on disc and live. I would love to go to the celtic connection Festival! <3

  • They're coming to college tomorrow night. Cool!
