This song is utterly beautiful. The lyrics are based on Finnish folk tales, and whislt they may seem a bit silly on page the utter intensity with which they're sung surpasses all those kind of thoughts. The really great thing about this song is the way the music creates such an incredible sense of atmosphere; You can see the bleak shorelines and dark waves. It's odd, but a lot of Finnish bands seem to be able to pull off the evocative trick very well, probably no more than any other country though, might be just what I've heard.
