WTF is @Harry Wilson's tackle

Years ago, we played with a brilliant swedish saxophonist. Having an audience made up of a large number of EF students in Brighton, our singer asked how to introduce the next song in swedish. Apparently the literal translation of the famous Junior Well's song 'messin' with the kid' is 'interfering with the child'

Who knew :shrug:

Do the Faroe Islands count?

Who's their most famous musical export - if any?

They're Danish. For the time being I guess... No idea about their music though.


However, I spent a month drinking beer with the Greenlandic rap elite. Weird language and weird culture but I like them.

Mats Gustafson is an ear-splitting star, and comes in multiple incarnations: https://matsgus.com/
As @Is it PotG? says, Olafur Arnaulds is a star
The Hives know how to rock
Bjork is rightly a global superstar -- and I saw The Sugarcubes
Agnes Obel is hauntingly beautiful

Might think of something else in time.

I'm also partial to a bit of Miss Li:

Ah, forgot about her but she's definitely on my "to do"-list.

Going to listen through her stuff properly some day. The things I've heard are cool, but my mum likes her stuff too much... its a psychological obstacle, but I'll get there.

as well as Scandinavia being the home of what appears to be hundreds of black and death metal (and Viking metal), there are some great bands Nightwish (Finnish), Sabbaton (Sweden), Voltbeat (Danish), Amon Amaranth (Swedish), Hanoi Rocks (Finnish) and the band with the greatest song intro - Europe with the Final Countdown

I once served Joey from Europe. He wanted the most expensive bottle in the shop. And got it.
