Instant flashbacks to ‘Midsommar’
Is this in Whiterun? Can’t find it anywhere…
That’s too weird
One of my favorite bands. Glad to see so many upvotes.
Pairs well with some glögg and surströmming…
Sooo… What’s in the barn?
That’s a jaunty little number.
Well then. That was…. different
I’m American. I assumed at some point the barn would explode.
Never thought I’d see Triakel on this sub, nice to see some love for folk here
If anyone is wondering, it´s about a 50th birthday party where the male guests are drunken as hell, knives come out for the hell of it, and the birthday boy get stabbed to death. For good measure, they throw his now pissed wife down the well to drown.
The chorus is in essence: ”say your cheers, draw your knives. Birthdays should always be this fun, drunken and happy”
Making light of murder, vice and depravity is an old traditional theme in Swedish folk, and this ”new-traditional” folk is hitting the spot quite nicely.
Now I know where the ABBA vibe comes from and it’s all good.
this is really nice, ty!
Edit: sent this to my Swedish bf, he said it was nice and then made this face: ö after hearing the rest of the lyrics lol
Looks like a vintage viking house
