SANKARIN TANGO
AHTI
Järveks luulin merta kerran runon lausui hän
Mysteerin sen syövereissä vietti elämän
Alla synkän valtameren varjois vaeltaa
Etsii tietä valoon luokse armaan ainiaan
Yksin sankar yöhön syvemmälle matkaa pois
Se taakka hänen harteillaan kuin lupaus aina ois
Täs pelissä tää narri lyödäänmaahan aina vaan
Vaan hetki kuolos lepoo suodaan
Jo takas kutsutaan
Aika särkyy ikuisuuteen laukaus kajahtaa
Ei onnellista loppua hän kohtaa milloinkaan
Niin monta kertaa kerrottu tää tarina jo on
Sankarilla tuhat kasvoo polku lohduton
Yksin sankar yöhön syvemmälle matkaa pois
Se taakka hänen harteillaan kuin lupaus aina ois
Täs pelissä tää narri lyödäänmaahan aina vaan
Vaan hetki kuolos lepoo suodaan
Jo takas kutsutaan
THE HERO’S TANGO
AHTI
(TRANSLATED)
Once, he mistook an ocean for a lake, he told us in a poem
In the depths of that mystery he spent his whole life
Under a dark ocean, in the shadows he wanders
Searching for a way back into the light to his loved one
Alone, the hero continues his journey into the night
That burden on his shoulders forever like a promise
In this game this fool is struck down again and again
Only a moments rest in death before he's called back again
Time breaks into eternity, a gunshot echoes
There’s never a happy end for him
This story has been told many times before
The hero has a thousand faces and a hopeless path
Alone, the hero continues his journey into the night
That burden on his shoulders forever like a promise
In this game this fool is struck down again and again
Only a moments rest in death before he's called back again

[@basilioparisi6492]

Nobody Will dislike ahti. Everyone love this strange finnish

[@hk-51fan7]

I watched this and now my laptop is an Altered Item, I cant look away... it wont turn off hel-

[@listofromantics]

Ahti's side-quests were always a fun touch of levity. When everything else was going to literal hell in Oldest House, this song was fortifying and comforting. It always made me smile... while I was blastin' fools.

[@Ruturaj240]

Hearing this song at the game awards was what got me to play control. And it has been a hell of an experience.

[@Abudzin]

I always find it so funny when he puts his hands in his pockets and does that little sniff in

[@sogyn2239]

I just realised that this recording is the version Ahti is listening to on his walkman as he's mopping at the beginning of the game (we don't hear this very clearly). In-game Ahti is softly singing along to himself.

When you read the lyrics and find out his been singing about Alan/Thomas being in the Dark place for all these years. 😮

I just realized that Ahti probably sung this himself and then listens to this and Take Control all the time while doing his janitorial duties

And the award for supporting actor in a live action music video: The roll of tape in Control: Martti Suosalo (Ahti) - Sankarin Tango (Hero's Tango) Live Performance.

I just finished and platinum the game. It's awesome to walk in a room and hear the song. I usually carry the radio when i hear the music through the launch ability
