Denne sangen er den som er favoritten min av alle de sangene han har gitt ut ,hvor alle er så utrolig bra,så det er ikke lett. Men det er mange andre som jeg liker så og si like godt. R.Tollan
A very quick run through of the google translate, but you should get the gist of it. More or less an ode to the de Havilland Twin Otter, and the small norwegian airline company using it. Steep mountains, short runways, violent weather, it did everything, and well. I guess you'd have to be norwegian, or nepalese, or what have you, to really appreciate the importance of the Twin Otter. Good song in my view, but then I am norwegian, and have had a few trips on the TO. I am a Twin Otter on my way from Mo I Rana A green and small knob with little time I bounce around among the fjords and mountains and clouds Sightseeing in Our Lord's amusement park But here's more than you think Between heaven and earth I have my body full of people of all sorts Here is the mail that must go through And newspapers as well And a terrified singer on tour Hello Sandnessjøen, here I am Green and seasick, sick, but satisfied I am a Twin Otter on my way from Mo I Rana I have a hundred miles to go Before I am moored It is easy to be green when you are small But it is worse to be pale when one is big People are going to travel so damn fast nowadays And NSB is stuck in its old tracks (NSB is the norwegian rail service) Then when storms come from the southwest Then I am at my best I measure my strength with Odin and Tor So when SAS won't (Scandinavian airline systems, the larger airline, Widerøes used the Twin Otter) And when Braathen doesn't dare (another larger airline) Then I'll be dancing around Torghatten as before Hello Sandnessjøen, here I am Green and small, seasick, but happy I am a Twin Otter on my way from Mo I Rana I have a hundred miles left Before I get moored But many people think I'm too old The time of a faithful servant is soon over Degraded to hopelessly old junk A drawing board fossil forever But still, Mother hovers High above mother earth And take a roof where the roof is needed most Although the weather is resisting I put my foot down As safe as any fjord horse Morn, morn Sandnessjøen, here I am Join us for a walk, you should see On a Twin Otter on the way from Mo I Rana That has two to three years left Before it is passé
