From my concert in Arvika. My grandpas favorite song. A wonderful moment with my friends and also a fantastic audience. Later we became The Original Swedish Arvika Blues Breakers!
This video is perfection! You are wonderful musicians, great stage performers, I LOVE the song, and this illustrates that mountain "clogging", "step dancing", and "folk dancing" are all combined due to great music. If the lead singer moved just a teeny, teeny bit more she would have been clogging as good as any person in the Appalachians! Wow. And I loved the impromptu encore! If I ever get to your part of the world I want to see you "Live"! Thank you, Moppet
I would have given anything to have been in the audience. I had grandparents who emigrated to the U.S. from rural Goteborg (and, yes, I know how to pronounce it). I also can say grace at the table in Swedish and do a little mild swearing, learned from grandma Eufemia.
can someone give me the name of the female singer with violin? Thank you This is my favorite version Can't read the language, but maybe Klastor has Hannah Lindblom?
Couldn’t really hear the vocalist much over the sound of the instruments. Otherwise it was very good. I would have liked to hear the lyrics more though.
Jag besökte den lilla lilla staden "Stockholm" I Minnesota förr. Tänk om jag kunnat spela upp denna för de gamla männen på fiket, så alla kunde hört.De överhörde mig när jag talade och förstod att jag var Svensk.
does anyone know the words in English? My dad's parents were immigrants from Torsby Sweden. shortly before he passed away on Jan 18, 2017 he sang parts of this song He was 92 years old. I would love to know what the words were.
I can not stop whistling!!! I do not have any idea what that song was about nor could I understand the lyrics, but that is what is so cool about music. It doesn't matter! It is all in our souls, and you people have it in your souls! Thank you for sharing that! I only wish I was there in the audience or better yet up on that stage with you playing and having fun, because that is what this is all about! THANK YOU! 5 BIG STARS!
This is the only tune I have in common with my Grandfather Andrew Veidel. He played it on the fiddle and mandolin. He didn't live long enough to play it for me, but my mother hummed it for me.
Eg tykjer den er god, man kan ser at det var ei gruppe som kom sammen i siste blicke, men blanda seg veldig bra. Folkemusikk skulle vere sånt så eg seier det er mykje betre en medelbra, du hev fått folket med og salen hev det gildt. Takk for insattsen. DS
