Loituma is back with a new version of Ievan polkka! We decided to participate in making art in the times of covid19 and this is the result. This video is to all of you who still like to listen to Ieva's story. Hope you enjoy! The time will come when we do this live, I'm sure. =)
Tämä video on kaikille teille, jotka yhäti haluatte kuunnella Ievan tarinaa. Loituma päätti kantaa kortensa kekoon korona-ajan taiteen tekemiseen ja syntyi tämä uusi versio Ievan polkasta. Olkaapa hyvä!
Aaaand the story in English:
IEVAN POLKKA - THE STORY
The storyteller is a young lad, who has a crush on a girl named Ieva (a Savonian version of Eeva, the Finnish Eva). The couple wants to dance together, no matter what. It’s a story about affection and the importance of dancing.
There is a sound of polka rhythm drifting from the neighbour (it might be Ieva’s house where people have gathered to dance). The lad says his feet long for dance. Ieva has her mother guarding her, but Ieva fools her and gets to dance with the lad. He’s saying: ”We don’t care about any restrictions when we are dancing all over the floor”.
Ieva is smiling widely as people wish her good luck. (Not sure, but maybe ’cause they had noticed the young fine lad being interested in her and people look at her with an implying gaze.) Everybody has their hair wet from sweating on the dance floor, and the fiddle is howling and wailing. In the end the lad says: ”I don’t mind being wet when dancing to and fro”.
Well, now Ieva’s mother is singing hymns in her own room (she probably didn’t like the idea of having a ball in her house). In the meantime the lad is wooing Ieva in the room next door (having a break from dancing). And the lad says that he doesn’t care about what any old women say as long as he can dance.
”We had fun after the dancing, and I got to canoodle once”. (It’s not obvious what Kettunen is saying here, but he alludes presumably to making love somewhere.) When they get home, Ieva’s mother is angry and Ieva starts to weep. The lad says: ”I told Ieva that it doesn’t matter and we’ll be dancing again”.
The lad continues: ”I told the mother: you shut your mouth, or else I won’t guarantee your health. You’ll stay healthy if you grab your bones and have a rest in your room”. He also tells that he doesn’t care for being so gentle when he’s taking the ladies all over the dance floor.
The lad is speaking to Ieva’s mother: ”I’ll tell you, you need to chew, ’cause I’m not to be swallowed just like that. (meaning that he won’t give up easily.) You can go from east to west, but I’m not giving up Ieva.” And he continues: ”For this lad doesn’t care for being too modest, when dancing to and fro”.
IEVAN POLKKA (lyrics in Finnish by Eino Kettunen)
1. Nuapurista kuulu se polokan tahti,
jalakani pohjii kutkutti.
Ievan äiti se tyttöösä vahti,
vaan kyllähän Ieva sen jutkutti.
Sillä ei meitä silloin kiellot haittaa,
kun myö tanssimme laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput tupput tapput, äppyt tipput hilijalleen.
2. Ievan suu oli vehnäsellä,
Ko immeiset onnee toivotti.
Peä oli märkänä jokaisella
ja viulu se vonku ja voivotti.
Ei tätä poekoo märkyys haittaa
Sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput tupput tapput, äppyt tipput hilijalleen.
3. Ievan äiti se kammarissa
virsiä veisata huijjuutti,
kun tämä poika naapurissa
ämmän tyttöä nuijjuutti.
Eikä tätä poikoo ämmät haittaa
sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan.
4. Siellä oli lystiä soiton jäläkeen,
sain minä kerran sytkyyttee.
Kottiin ko mäntii, ni ämmä se riitelj
ja Ieva jo alako nyyhkyyttee.
Minä sanon Ievalle mitäpä se haittaa,
laskemma vielähi laiasta laitaan.
5. Muorille sanon, jotta tukkee suusi,
en ruppee sun terveyttäs takkoomaan.
Terveenä peäset ku korjoot luusi
ja määt siitä murjuus makkoomaan.
Ei tätä poekoo hellyys haittaa
ku akkoja huhkii laiasta laitaan.
6. Sen minä sanon, jotta purra pittää,
ei mua niin vuan nielasta.
Suat männä ite vaikka lännestä ittään,
vuan minä en luovu Ievasta,
Sillä ei tätä poikoo kainous haittaa
sillon ko tanssii laiasta laitaan.

Hey everybody! We have a new music video of Ievan polkka! Have a look: ruclips.net/video/SczXj_SSwWM/видео.htmlsi=23W4n-ezxuUYL9y5
Okay sounds great!
Love the Song 🥰🥰🥰

Thank you! This version is wonderful. I can't get enough of the beautiful energy and joy of those family and friends celebrating. 🙂
Ladies and gentlemen please stand for the international anthem of the Internet.
I love that two internet anthems are from finland. Ievan polkka and Darude - Sandstorm
The Finns in general are Memelords, I was just there. Such a nice country were it not for the billions of mosquitos in summer.
wrong the HOLY anthem of the internet
I’m afraid that is Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up
Chocolate Rain comes close too

They vanished but when the world needed them most they returned
=)
I like how 25 years later, they all still seem very happy singing this song
It makes the song so much better. =)

Haha i was born in 1996. I really love this song and thier performance.
As much of a meme this song has become, I'm glad to see that the quartet who brought it to it's prominence has embraced it and run with it. A great Finnish song from great people, even after all these years. Keep it up and I can't wait for more.
A new Ievan polkka video coming in January! =)
These guys aged like fine wine 🍷😍
You forget that they are Finnish. The finnish always age well
I agree tho
Life is like discovering these legends. A moment ago they are young and you blink once and they have aged gracefully.
A blink would be here 25 years. =)
@@HanniAutere okay so it's a slow blink.
@@mestillme2017 =)
I hope the fact that you guys are a big part of everyone who grew up with the internet's childhood and teenage years makes you happy. Sure as hell makes me happy.
I’m Japanese and I still love your voices. This song got me interested in Finnish and other languages. I’m ice hockey player so I wanna visit Finland someday. 😊
My man have been non-stop POLing since 1996. The man of culture.
What is incredible is they sound basically the same as they did over 20 years ago, that's some talent
Какие прекрасные голоса❤❤❤❤❤❤
=)
I remember travelling as a Kid to Finland like 20-25 years ago with my Father recieving a guest gift: a CD with this song on it. Since then i am always comming back to it ❤
I don’t understand Finnish but this is very calming and everyone’s voice is amazing
It's about a girl Eva who's dancing a Polka.
See the description. =)
Doesn't need instruments
Doesn't need special effects
Doesn't need auto-tune
Just having skill and beautiful voices
I never understood why, and I'm very sincere about this, about why your song has always had a miraculous effect on me. I was only about 16 years old when I listened to you for the first time but right from the start this song sparked an awakening of goodness in my heart that I don't understand and have never been able to explain. I have been through horrible times in my life but I have always found a sweet and inexplicable consolation in listening to this wonderful song. Over the years I have always tried to understand the lyrics of this song but I only understood that it is about a girl who finds love and nothing more. but that's not the point, now that I've grown up I have the opportunity to help a lot of people see the beautiful side of life and I do it as a job. Even now and then I still have bad moments and I recently discovered this channel and found back you all, a little older, like me, but still so beautiful. I think it is your heart that has enlightened me so much and I would very much like to be able to hug even just one of you to say a profound thank you that I still have never understood. but I know that this thank you comes from my heart, which has understood thanks to yours , life is always beautiful even in the darkest moments. Sorry for my poor english i just wanna say THANK YOU
I'm happy that our music has been meaningful to you.
It's amazing that all these years later, the talent for this song was *still* there, and it's absolutely beautiful.
Did you see the new video? =)
This song is the main reason why i started learning how to speak finnish, It's a fascinating language and culture for sure! Also, It's good to see those four people are fine and probably still friends.
Yes, we are still friends. =)
A friendship that lasts over 2 decades that's pretty wholesome ngl
VALE NO ENTIENDO LO TUYO SI ESTAR A FASVOR O EN CONTRA MAS TE MANDO SALUDOS, CON respetos, discutamos despues.-
@@HanniAutere la mas bella persona que no conoci, y aplaudo de pie, desde ARGENTINA una reverencia, ,gracias maestra.-
@@besto5486 yeahh🌸
I'm norwegian, but I used several hours to learn the lyrics to this song so I could hipput tipput along with these amazing singers
I learned it to impress a Finnish girl I liked , I'm from Sudan 😄
I just love your use of hipput tipput as a verb 😄
Imponerende!
@@arcanepersona1676 Did it work? 😁
@@sweedelnishadsa things were pretty nice between us I think she liked me too , but she disappeared during these corona times, dunno what happened with her .. I guess one can say that our friendship was Finnish'ed 😄
they've aged so gracefully, wow! and their vocals only got better with time 😭 like fine wine, love you guys!!
I hope they know how much happiness they've given many childhoods back in the day
We can imagine that. =)
They all aged like fine wine .

Just one of those early internet things that makes you happy. I'm so glad we still have Loituma around, but time really does fly, doesn't it?
Can you imagine one of them calling the others like, "We're getting the band back together..."
At least they got waaaay more rhythm than "that chair"
I love how they still sound almost exactly the same. It's actually super cool.
Would've loved to see their reactions to finding out a ton of young nerds on the internet loved their performance from the 90s lol
Still listen to it now and then, good stuff.
Well, we have known that for a while... =)
FOUR MILLION VIEWS! =D
Because this is legendary that's why. It's a RUclips Monolith here to educate all on it's original purpose. Worldwide culture, different music and incredible harmonics.
i just smiled so much when i saw this uploaded brought back so much memories of having the '96 live performance on repeat, i love all the versions of ievan's polkka
Amazing song
Because this is a timeless performance...and you all deserve our likes, and thanks. 🥰
Such a great rendition by you guys, discovered too late by the wider world in my opinion. But now you are getting the love/likes you all deserve!
(Ps. Make more music! :D )
They came back as more than just old people.
They came back as legends!
Thank you very much for bringing this joyful piece once again :D!
Except that we are not old. 70 would be old... =)
@@HanniAutere yeah you guys are not old
forever young ❣️❣️
In the young age of 50 s do wonders!!!
The world desperately needs you all...
They’re like in their 60s and yet they can still sing continuously for so long without breath breaks…
We are in our 50s... =)
You made them old! 😂😂
they've all aged like fine wine and cheese
=)
Absolute truth - they haven't lost a single speck of talent over the years.
I am Spanish and I don't understand a single word, but I find it fascinating to listen to you. Thank you.
Gracias! Puedes leer la historia de la canción en la descripción. =)
I'm not Spanish and still dont understand a single word so don't worry it's probably not because of you being Spanish. But it does sound great!
The guy on the bottom left sounds **exactly** the same as he did like 25 years ago. Nice.
What a pro.

Actually it has some bad words like bitch or fuck of but in generally not more than today’s songs.
This song has none of the words you say. No-one speaks like that here. I should know. =) Where did you get that idea from?
@@HanniAutere I searched it’s translation up from Internet. It said there is some bad words but if you say so then no problem.
@@metehankanmaz8805 Don't believe everything that's said in the internet. =) If you want to know what this song is about, read it here in my videos. Those you can trust. =)
Some people in Finland might translate ämmä to bich. To me it is just dialect and I dont really think much of it.
i will lisen to every Ievan Polkka version and there is noone that can stop me
=)
0:06 Legends say he is still saying POL
POL POL POL POL🗣️🗣️🗣️

He looks badass now
Still calling for Paul
@@tedmolo I think it's "HEI HOI" or "hello holler" i.e. nonsense.
years passed and the guy is still "polling"
Some say he never stopped and never will
They aged beautifully!
Damn yes, they all look great!
I found this song 10 years ago when i was in highschool, now I'm fully grown and it has stood the test of time. Truly a great song
Did you see the new video already? =)
Its amazing to see that all Loituma members aged like wine: fantastic vocals, good harmony and beautiful-looking!!! Greetings from Brasil!
The man who says Pol still saying Pol warms my heart.

Года идут а голоса те же, прекрасные!!!

I listened to this song almost 20 years ago for hours during my university years at night. Smoking, drinking, studying my graduation, playing wow...
Watching this reminded me of better and easier times. My life is going through a lot of difficulties and this song made me wipe a tear, nostalgia...
Thank you.
This is like the national anthem of the Internet.
What... Wait! 😍 Tommorow will be like Christmas, birthday, graduation, and payday in ONE DAY. III CAAANNTTT WAAAAIIIITTTT!!!!
the smile on my face while watching this. good old days!
For anyone wondering, this song is talking about a boy who takes a girl, Ieva, to a dance. Ieva's mother doesn't want her to go, but eventually, she and the boy sneak out. After the dancing, they hook up. They go back home and Ieva's mother is mad and Ieva starts crying. The song ends basically with the boy telling the mom he loves Ieva and will not give her up. I basically stole this comment from someone who basically stole this comment from another Ievan Polka video in which the comment writer basically stole the comment from another Ieva Polka video in which the comment writer basically stole the comment from another Ieva Polka video
Thanks, i didnt even know what anything meant even though I'm finnish 😂
It's all in the description. =)

What are the names of other singers Hanni
aged appearances but their voices never get aged
They are white people like me
This makes me so happy. I don't understand the language, but the original has been in my head for 20+ years and to see this in such high quality honestly makes me want to cry with joy. Such a great song, and Loituma certainly did the best version, followed by the Turkish chap, but this version tops the best version and wins the crown.
They had NO DIFFERENCE from the 80’s still so good omg
To be accurate, the first performance is from 1996. =)
Ohhh yea sorry for the error 😅😅
I'm on a mission to listen to every Ievan Polkka version there is on youtube
Good luck! =)
1:47 She still got it!! 🎉🎉 ❤

So jazzy 😍reminds me of some old time black voice scat, sweet!
I cant believe that this wonderful woman still responds for comments
Greetings from Latvia:)
The '96 version was recommended to me and this followed; you guys still got it!
Much love from The Philippines!
Correction: You guys *always* had it!
My man really returned to say Pol Pol Pol after all these years ♥️
This song has been in my head since 2011 and I'm not even mad
Удивительно, эти люди как будто совсем не изменились, не старели с тех пор, я когда смотрел на них сейчас - как будто видел их ещё теми, молодыми, с первой записи.

Absolute legend sitting there just saying "pole" for over 2 minutes.
Actually he says "pol". =) Which is half of the word "polkka" in Finnish.
@HanniAutere learn something new everyday! Thanks I didn't know this
Still loving this song, decade's later your voices have only gotten better
I literally searched levan polkka at the perfect time.
Immortal voices!!! Respect!!!
From the first time I heard this song I am convinced the old legends of sirens hypnotizing sailors with their voices is an analogy for the Finnish.

they all aged well both vocally and visually
@@yxunglost780 True.

Don't be surprised if one day I just tupput tapput apput tipput

Wow, it's really nice to hear a fresh version from the original composers of the song
Except we a re not the composers. It's a traditional tune. We made the arrangement. And part of the lyrics. =)
they would still win eurovision easily
Only this song could not take part in that contest. =)
return of the legends
so good love this music love the language
I don´t thin that you knowhow big you are and how loved you are by generations. This song defines both millenials and gen Z.
This was my phone ringtone for a good while!
Their voices haven't changed a bit. They still sound fantastic!
