Glad you liked this one! As someone who appreciates lyrics a lot, it always makes me grin the way they introduce the image of the pyramid early in the song in the guise of a metaphor for class and then tie it all up so perfectly when they remind you in the final line that pyramids are, in fact, graves.
Du skulle nog digga "Livet är en fest" med Nationalteatern och "Hon kom över mon" med Contact. De är lite samma stuk som Keops, dvs monumentala progglåtar😃
The song is like a typical Swedish folk song up in the north. And yes They where politically to the left, like the whole Swedish music movement was at that time, until ABBA came and f…ckt it up 😂 The singer is Mikael Wiehe and the list of songs with him and Björn Afzelius (Also in the band) would keep you busy for a a year. But pick Titanic, you will like that one a lot.
Haha! Great reaction. The weed reference was on point! I get Jefferson Airplane vibes, specifically White Rabbit, which has a similar marching feeling.
This is so very swedish, the proggsound with sounds from the swedish folk music as well, typical 70s. They were very anti ABBA and the commercial music industry, in Sweden in the 70s there were actually demonstrations against melodifestivalen! Hard to believe today. Anyway, this is really good and classic. I have suggested before Ikaros by Björn Afzelius, I hope it ys on your list.
Grym video, som vanligt! Hade varit jättekul om du tittade på Veronica Maggio & Håkan Hellström, "Kärlek är ett brev skickat tusen gånger - Live på Ullevi". Ett helt otroligt liveframträdande!!
Glad you liked it, damn sometimes you surprise with good taste. Holabandola made a lot of working class songs, and were almost accused of being communists. Which of course in Sweden was not quite as bad as being accused of the same thing in the States.
I don't know if you've done Flickan och Kråkan yet but I would really love to see your reaction to it (Mikael Wiehe did the original but tbh Timbuktu's rendition is good too).
Please do, would love to go to your show and show my gratitude for your videos, it happens i rewatch your eddie meduza ones, since i am från bruksorten i'm born with his music practically . Have an awesome day! :p@@JonathanRollinssthlm305
The Hives - Walk Idiot Walk En del skulle säkert rekommendera ”Hate to say i told you so" men för mig är ”Walk Idiot Walk” den ultimata The Hives-låten. Gitarriffet gör mig så lycklig.
Lyssna gärna på fler låtar med Hoola Bandoola Band. Jag älskar deras låtar och tycker namnet är hur bra som helst. Coolt. 1:37 Mitt namn är taget med inspiration från dom. 😅
approximate translation of the first verse: I am one of those slaves on the Keops pyramid we are the ones who work down by the foot. And we toil and we sweat, so as not to lose time. It's a pity for those who don't fill the quota Once you come here, you will never be free again. If you end here, you end in the pit. But people speak of the king that he is a son of the sun. Behind fifteen double bars, behind fifteen double locks, holds rich parties in the halls of power. Here there is nothing threatening, here there is nothing disturbing. And if someone must die, or some shall be beaten, there are others who can enforce the decisions. The cry of anguish or howl is never heard here.
Great song, but I think I have to say there are better versions. When I think of this, I think of a more stripped down version with more emphasis on the lyrics. Perhaps it's Thåströms? And it's no surprise at all that Thåström have made a cover of this. Progg is the predecessor of punk so it definately makes sense. In fact, one of Imperiets biggest hits is a cover of an old progg song, "Staten och kapitalet". And when you talked about this as an epic song, it reminded me of Kjell Höglunds Häxprocess. It would be awesome to hear you sink your teeth in that one. It's a mouthful. And perhaps a bit hard to chew, which makes it all so much better. :)
To get the core of this song, which by the way feels more current than ever, imagine living in todays Ukraine, trying to be Bob Dylan adressing the russian regime while singing the songs masters of war and it's all over now baby blue.
Do Horgalåten: It's a true neverending classic. The song is probably to old to definitely find a certain artist, but you should react to it nevertheless.
Have to say I'm disappointed you've only listened to one song by Ola Magnell. PLease listen to Min häst har blivit sjuk and Rulltrappan by Ola magnell. Or even När jag dör or Kliff by the same

It's such a good metaphor, and tying the tower of Babel into it too, just cleverly done all around!
Jag föreslår att du lyssnar på Björn Afzelius med Ikaros. Texten i den låten är outstanding!
Instämmer, den texten går rakt in
Japp, går inte att värja sig mot

Contact, bra skit!
@@MegaZimZim Eller hur! "Grannlåt", "..ledsen ikväll" är oxå grymma, även fast " "Hon kom över mon" är i särklass, på topp10 svenska låtar
Kåldolmar och Kalsipper 😂
@@uncommonman Uff, där går gränsen för mig. Tycker det blir obehagligt när proggare gör saker riktade till barn 😅
Älskar att lyssna på musiken genom dig, trots att jag ofta blir lite gråtmild när jag hör gamla klassiker😄
Tack Jonathan🙏💞
It's my pleasure!
Glad you finally got to listen to it and enjoyed it! sure is a banger!
Älskar när du reagerar på Hoola Bandoola!!!!
Flickan och kråkan - Mikael Wiehe

The Knife - Pass this on
Lasse Holm & Monica Törnell - E de det här du kallar kärlek💕
Vore kul om du lyssnade på Herr Mannelig med Garmarna. :)
Älskar denna! Vävare Lasse av samma band är också en klassiker. Kul att se din reaktion.
Tidlös klassiker🎶 Om du vill reagera på fler ut av deras låtar så rekommenderar jag "Herkules" eller "Victor Jara"
Amanda Jenssen - Amarula Tree

Som vanligt så tjatar jag om Carola - Säg mig var du står och Svenska Björnstammen - Svalkar vinden! Bangers!🤌
Yes one of my favourite band in my youth...and creedence too thank you!

Thåström have made a fantastic vesrion of this song with Wiehe on the stage... It's on YT
i actually never heard this, really cool working class anthem

Sometimes I surprise with good taste? Nice thinly veiled insult there
Almost? Neither Wiehe nor Afzelius has never denied their politic standpoint to my knowledge

A favourite of theirs. Try "Jakten på Dalai Lama" and "Juanita".
”Juanita” is a favorite for me. The other song i haven’t heard what i know.
Nationalteatern- Barn av vår tid!
Are you going to Värmland and perform? Would love to say hello and buy you a beer! (You pronounced the names correct!)
I will let you know when I come to Värmland!

You should check out Barkbrödslåten by Kebnekajse. It's in the same vein as this, but instrumental
The Hives - Walk Idiot Walk
En del skulle säkert rekommendera ”Hate to say i told you so" men för mig är ”Walk Idiot Walk” den ultimata The Hives-låten. Gitarriffet gör mig så lycklig.

Finn Kalvik - Lilla Vackra Anna
Ebba Grön - Mental istid
Magnus Uggla - Moder Svea
Imperiet - CC cowboys

I always brushed this band off because of their silly name, now I need to look up some more of their songs.
Lyssna gärna på fler låtar med Hoola Bandoola Band. Jag älskar deras låtar och tycker namnet är hur bra som helst. Coolt. 1:37 Mitt namn är taget med inspiration från dom. 😅
Movits! ft. Timbuktu - Na Na Nah!
Johnossi - Dead End
The Cardigans - My favourite Game
Svensk punk säger jag bara! Räserbajs, Tåström, Radioaktiva Räkor, De lyckliga kompisarna, Dia Psalma, Mimikry Mfl. Förvånansvärt bra och melodiskt.
Love it
You know howe we talk.
You talk swedish😊
👋I knew you'd like it 😊
Kul med Agneta Fältskog och att hennes låtskrivande kan lyftas fram.
Dag Vag...
AKI, från hiphopgruppen Labyrint har med en snutt från denna i sin låt ’Sluter upp’, rekommenderas varmt!
approximate translation of the first verse:
I am one of those slaves on the Keops pyramid
we are the ones who work down by the foot.
And we toil and we sweat, so as not to lose time.
It's a pity for those who don't fill the quota
Once you come here, you will never be free again.
If you end here, you end in the pit.
But people speak of the king that he is a son of the sun.
Behind fifteen double bars,
behind fifteen double locks,
holds rich parties in the halls of power.
Here there is nothing threatening, here there is nothing disturbing.
And if someone must die,
or some shall be beaten,
there are others who can enforce the decisions.
The cry of anguish or howl is never heard here.
The Sounds - Living in America
Han har redan reagerat på den😊
@@memoblom2112 Jag misstänkte det. Tack för att du har koll.
Här är en länk till en underbar version från deras replokal: ruclips.net/video/gXoyIdlaDF8/видео.html&ab_channel=prognatusdenique
As for prog and 70s rock there's so much dope swedish stuff.
Håller med, banger
You should check out the prog record/childrens classic; kåldolmar och kalsipper by Nationalteatern.
Great song, but I think I have to say there are better versions. When I think of this, I think of a more stripped down version with more emphasis on the lyrics. Perhaps it's Thåströms?

Helen Sjöholm - you have to be there 👍👍👍
Nä, "Du måste finnas". Den svenska versionen är så otroligt mycket starkare.
Jag tänkte föreslå att lyssna på Eddie Meduza med när man drömmer sina drömmar. En otroligt bra låt
Finaly! :-)
balladen om herr fredrik åkare och den söta fröken cecilia lind måste du lyssna på!
To get the core of this song, which by the way feels more current than ever, imagine living in todays Ukraine, trying to be Bob Dylan adressing the russian regime while singing the songs masters of war and it's all over now baby blue.
Lyssna på Lars Demian! 'Man få vara glad att man inte är död'
I get Django vibes from this song
Also, it's funny you should say that.. It's in the works actually.
Do Horgalåten: It's a true neverending classic. The song is probably to old to definitely find a certain artist, but you should react to it nevertheless.
Noice ”ut i natten” en lugn låt av Sveriges första punkband
finally
Thåström har en fin version av denna, likaså Sundström ihop med Helen Sjöholm.. ruclips.net/video/EFSSvtzZF88/видео.htmlsi=e5SC7PRoAo9fKfNO
Eddie Meduza - När man drömmer sina drömmar
Tommy Körberg - Som en bro över mörka vatten på så skall det låta! SJUKA VOCALS
Dags för ”GES - En Jävel på kärlek” 🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏻
Have to say I'm disappointed you've only listened to one song by Ola Magnell. PLease listen to Min häst har blivit sjuk and Rulltrappan by Ola magnell. Or even När jag dör or Kliff by the same
Michael Wiehe wrote som great songs. Unfortunately his voice is not... great. Hope you did listen to Thåströms brilliant version.
