Te olette kyllä oikeasti legendaarisia. Teitä on koetettu jäljitellä vaihtelevalla menestyksellä, on tehty 90 dance musiikkia tämän pohjalta ja vaikka mitä.
@@HanniAutere Legendaarista se on. Muistan, kun näin teidän ensiesiintymisen telkkarissa ja muistan sen wau elämyksen. Edelleen, vaikka olen kohta 50, teette suuren vaikutuksen. Tästä iso Kiitos teille ja tietenkin Herra Kettuselle sinne jonnekkin.
When I was in first grade, I was afraid to go to school. One day my mother made me listen to this song and I felt peaceful. I listened it every morning to beat my fear. Now I'm a college student and I still feel the same peace and happiness while listening this song. I love you guys :)
Hello, Hanni. I am a 12-year-old boy living in Korea. My favorite song is your Ivan Polkka. I loved listening to your youth songs. You were such a good singer and pretty woman. You're old now, but your beauty and grace are not old. I love you and your country 🇫🇮Always cheer up🎊🎊 from some boy🇰🇷🇰🇷
Thank you! :-) When you are 50, you will notice also, that a person at that age is not really old, but is living the best time of his/her life! :-) Greetings to Korea!
As a folk singer, one who loves doing a cappella most of all, this always just makes me smile! Excellent technical control and a beautiful melody with a great lyric. Just awesome!
Once I somehow, through a wonder found the email address of Timo and wrote him an email, how I adore their work and he replied within a few hours. They seem to be really nice people. I love this song since the first moment I heard it when it became popular.
@@gigaslime3627 I'm sorry. It's just that there are so many comments and it takes quite a lot of time for me to go through all the comment list. For some reason some of the new comments pop in the middle of the chain and it takes time to find them. With the smile I just wanted to show that I'm happy about what you said.
Damn... I just can't believe this masterpiece is 20+ yrs old. Most recently I came across this music and I don't understand a word but it sounds so wow
It's actually much older. Our version was performed in 1992, so 32 years of that. =) For translation of the story, see the description. And do visit our website loituma.fi. =)
I've listened to the original about 1000 times, and was hoping to see you guys do this song again and I am so glad I found this! Hopefully I can see it live sometime!
@@HanniAutere reflection of your beautiful soul :) whenever i see you guys i find my self smiling and i cannot stop it. Thank you for giving such great song to the humanity :) wish you best.
i grew up listening to this song, and because of it i wanted to study finnish, ended up going to uni to study norwegian instead, but still there's this huge desire to learn this wonderful language love this song so much❤️
I know most people found this because of cats and leeks and memes, but really this is an absolutely fantastic example of acappella singing by a wonderful group that I'm SO happy to know are still performing.
@Zell Same, most people just came here for the memes but I actually really enjoy this haha. I'm looking forward to the 2021 remake and this is actually my favourite song now :-).
Once they were young and now they have aged, but the only man in the group is still like "pol, pol, pol, pol, pol", love this group, specially the man 🤩🤩
I'm a Japanese fan. Your singing voice, which I fell in love with when I heard it more than 10 years ago, has matured even more sweetly, giving me a new sensibility. Sending love from Japan to your wonderful singing voice.
24 years later!!!!!! Ievan Polkka still leaves one of the biggest lasting legacies of RUclips! Remarkable to see this performance done again so many years later!
That song predates RUclips. I remember listening to a bootleg MP3 (or maybe even MP2) over and over during a LAN party before they were a thing. I think it was circa 1997... This song went viral before the word viral was invented! :-)
Though Loituma isn't the original (which I prefer over this). Loituma basically made it have more jazz in it than the original and added parts that were not in the original - again, the jazz is ruining it for me. My mom is deaf-blind but used to tour around Finland, cruise ships and many upon many festivals playing violin the folk-style. They have performed this many times too, but they do the proper, original version.
You wouldn't believe how many times I've listened to you guys sing over the course of 5 years 😍 I literally feel like I know you people personally 😂 love you. Love from Serbia 🇷🇸
Hanni, big fan from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳. Just loved your song like the old one. Also you guys are awesome, you made me believe age is just a number. may Krishna bless you.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
the 'pol pol' guy really rocked the suit there and I really found the dance at 1:41 onwards very wholesome hehe- but y'all have nailed the song everytime you sing it and have maintained it since 21 years and thats a lot! hats off to loituma
Hello! You are amazing. It was very exciting to watch the performance recorded in 1996 and this video. Moreover, thanks to this song, I became interested in the magical Finnish language. It's great that you make videos for this channel. Hanni, you are a very talented person. Anita is charismatic, I really like her wonderful voice. Timo is cheerful, smiling and cool. Sari charges with energy and good mood. Loituma is impossible without each of you. With best regards!
Hello, I saw the new video and it was amazing. I suggest that you should put the link of the new video in this pinned comment and also, add it on the description to let people know about it. Cheers!
The last line where they all come in together to sing in unison almost made me cry. I was 6 years old when the original video was recorded and I'm 30 now; it's great to see you're still around, still together and still having fun.
Oh my god.. my eyes are tearing when I watched this video!!! I can't believe how the days passed so fastly.. and how u guys changed and got older..

This does put a smile on my face.
I'm happy to hear that. :-)
Holy shit, it's THEM! this makes me so happy for some reason.
Yep, it's us all right. :-)
@Java Monsoon Yep!
@Java Monsoon Well, the band doesn't really work together anymore, but we are still friends. Or who knows what will happen.... =)
My goodness... this song and singers aged like wine...
=)
Te olette kyllä oikeasti legendaarisia. Teitä on koetettu jäljitellä vaihtelevalla menestyksellä, on tehty 90 dance musiikkia tämän pohjalta ja vaikka mitä.
Joo, onhan tämä tosi omituista miten monet meihin ja meidän tekemisiin suhtautuu. Aika ainutlaatuista, sanoisin. =)
@@HanniAutere Legendaarista se on. Muistan, kun näin teidän ensiesiintymisen telkkarissa ja muistan sen wau elämyksen. Edelleen, vaikka olen kohta 50, teette suuren vaikutuksen. Tästä iso Kiitos teille ja tietenkin Herra Kettuselle sinne jonnekkin.

When I was in first grade, I was afraid to go to school. One day my mother made me listen to this song and I felt peaceful. I listened it every morning to beat my fear. Now I'm a college student and I still feel the same peace and happiness while listening this song. I love you guys :)
Wow! Thanks for sharing this story. =)
Hello, Hanni. I am a 12-year-old boy living in Korea. My favorite song is your Ivan Polkka. I loved listening to your youth songs. You were such a good singer and pretty woman. You're old now, but your beauty and grace are not old. I love you and your country 🇫🇮Always cheer up🎊🎊 from some boy🇰🇷🇰🇷
Thank you! :-) When you are 50, you will notice also, that a person at that age is not really old, but is living the best time of his/her life! :-) Greetings to Korea!

@Emmanuel Uzamaki well duh

As a folk singer, one who loves doing a cappella most of all, this always just makes me smile! Excellent technical control and a beautiful melody with a great lyric. Just awesome!
I like this movie and
singing voice :)
:-)
which movie is this???
@@sabizsotigaming6789 What do you mean? It's a video clip from my concert last year. :-)
@@sabizsotigaming6789 it's BATTLETOADS movie
@@HanniAutere I think @Sabizsoti Gaming thought this video was a part of some movie (film, cinema or whatever) because of the original comment.

Wow, she's answered so many comments I can't believe. If all Finnish people are so nice, then that's where I'd like to live :))
:-)
Once I somehow, through a wonder found the email address of Timo and wrote him an email, how I adore their work and he replied within a few hours. They seem to be really nice people. I love this song since the first moment I heard it when it became popular.
@@mariobros2628 :-)
Not really an answer but ok...
@@gigaslime3627 I'm sorry. It's just that there are so many comments and it takes quite a lot of time for me to go through all the comment list. For some reason some of the new comments pop in the middle of the chain and it takes time to find them. With the smile I just wanted to show that I'm happy about what you said.
Damn... I just can't believe this masterpiece is 20+ yrs old. Most recently I came across this music and I don't understand a word but it sounds so wow
It's actually much older. Our version was performed in 1992, so 32 years of that. =) For translation of the story, see the description. And do visit our website loituma.fi. =)
Memes aside, the fact that they are still rocking it after 25 years is amazing!
Yeah! :-)
I've listened to the original about 1000 times, and was hoping to see you guys do this song again and I am so glad I found this! Hopefully I can see it live sometime!
:-) Might be difficult to see us performing live, since we don't really work together anymore... But well, who knows what will happen. :-)
@@HanniAutere you are so beautiful ❤️❤️ also in this age
@@md.abutalaha11 :-D Make-up does wonders! Or is it music?!... :-)

Yea he still is calling for Paul. Wherever he is
@@meeq87 You made my day... :-)))))))))) Paul, Paul, Paul, Paul...
i grew up listening to this song, and because of it i wanted to study finnish, ended up going to uni to study norwegian instead, but still there's this huge desire to learn this wonderful language
love this song so much❤️
Apart from the song, I'm just astounded at the fact that she replied to everyone :-)
I'm happy to hear you appreciate it. =)
=)
Yeah...She is really down to earth person. May God bless her.

It's amazing how you don't need to understand even a word to like a song. Music is really a blessing.
I agree! :-) Music is magic!
Music doesn't need a language, it's a language of its own
@@somethinghere2815 I agree. :-)
@@somethinghere2815 absolutely true❣
Sweet people, beautiful language and SUCH a masterpiece of a song. Just discovered it recently and I am obsessed.
Their voices still original. Never change through years
=) You will soon hear the 2021 version from Loituma! =)
Listening to this is like meeting a old friend you haven't met in a long time, and nothing has changed
:-)
I know most people found this because of cats and leeks and memes, but really this is an absolutely fantastic example of acappella singing by a wonderful group that I'm SO happy to know are still performing.
Thank you for your kind words! =)
@Zell
Same, most people just came here for the memes but I actually really enjoy this haha. I'm looking forward to the 2021 remake and this is actually my favourite song now :-).
@@nameless5053 =)
Loituma had always been my favorite version of the song 🙌🏼
They performed it first 25 years ago, and 25 years later they're still as amazing as they were back then
Thanks! =)
@@HanniAutere Waiting for them to remake it at thier 75th BD party 😂😂

Once they were young and now they have aged, but the only man in the group is still like "pol, pol, pol, pol, pol", love this group, specially the man 🤩🤩

Ievan Polkka still leaves one of the biggest lasting legacies of RUclips! Remarkable to see this performance done again so many years later!
:-)
That song predates RUclips. I remember listening to a bootleg MP3 (or maybe even MP2) over and over during a LAN party before they were a thing. I think it was circa 1997...
This song went viral before the word viral was invented! :-)
@@realulli Yes! :-D
There's hundreds if not thousands of versions of this song, but Loituma is the best one
Thanks! =)
Though Loituma isn't the original (which I prefer over this). Loituma basically made it have more jazz in it than the original and added parts that were not in the original - again, the jazz is ruining it for me.
My mom is deaf-blind but used to tour around Finland, cruise ships and many upon many festivals playing violin the folk-style. They have performed this many times too, but they do the proper, original version.
You wouldn't believe how many times I've listened to you guys sing over the course of 5 years 😍 I literally feel like I know you people personally 😂 love you. Love from Serbia 🇷🇸

Hello! You are amazing. It was very exciting to watch the performance recorded in 1996 and this video. Moreover, thanks to this song, I became interested in the magical Finnish language. It's great that you make videos for this channel.
Hanni, you are a very talented person. Anita is charismatic, I really like her wonderful voice. Timo is cheerful, smiling and cool. Sari charges with energy and good mood. Loituma is impossible without each of you. With best regards!
