Late to the party, as usual. This has been going on since 2008 and I just discovered it.
A guy on my f-list posted this video....
As I'm watching I hear the opening lyrics "I'm from a land called secret Estonia. Nobody knows where it's at". Huh? I know exactly where Estonia is. Been to Tallin. Nice place. Cute girls.No ice cream mountains, cinnamon houses or licorice flies, as far as I remember. Yadda yadda.
It seemed a little too specific to be a lie, so I checked up on who this Kerli is...go figure. She really IS from Extonia. And cute, too. Kerli Kõiv from Elva.
I don't claim to be an expert on Estonia, or to have any connection to the place, other than the fact that back before some of you were born, it was part of the country I grew up in -the Soviet Union.
So, even if some Estonians would prefer if that was not part of their history, in a way I still feel like she is from the neighborhood...
I have no idea what these lyrics mean, though. Anybody actually fluent in Eesti ? Please tell me...
Põdral maja metsa sees
Väiksest aknast välja vaatab
Jänes jookseb kõigest väest
Lävel seisma jääb
Kopp-kopp lahti tee
Metsas kuri jahimees
Jänes tuppa tule sa
Anna käppa ka
Not that it matters. The rest of the album -"Love Is Dead" is a lot softer, kind of electropop with female vocals. Actually very enjoyable
Wanna check it out? There's several places on different share sites to choose from
