I was listening to "My Kantele" 14 years ago, hiking at the Polish mountains. Now I'm 28 and it still feels the same ~ epic!

with amorphis. the eagle has landed in the black winter day. what a band. i wish i had 1000 lakes

Amorphis is absolutely IMHO the greatest metal band ever from Finland. My Kantele in this live version is proof. Very cool.

So, so good. These guys should be one of the biggest bands in the world.

Amorphis, Anathema, Paradise Lost forever!!! The best!!!

This song is one of the most successful songs from them

It's the greatest song to end a gig. Just a masterpiece. Esa. please do these more, you're a master.

I will definitely read the KALEVALA. Thanks AMORPHIS for waking my curiosity up.

I bought a copy awhile back.....bc of Amorphis. It's a great trip

Tää on käsittämätömän kova lopetusbiisi. Aivan jäätävä taas tänään Kapakanmäellä. Kiitos. Kotia Lempäälään päästyä keikka jatkunut jo 3 tuntia.... Hyvää matkaa maailmalle. Ei nähdä Suomessa taas reiluun vuoteen.

This is my fav. Song of Amorphis!!!!

what a growlllllllllllllllll.......

wow.. this is beautiful.. it makes tears to my eyes...

This song makes the scale of awesomeness explode!

GOOSEBUMPS!!!

old finnish bands are unique in a strange way .... same feeling when you're listening to sentenced, yearning or silentium,

his voice is so beautiful

FROM BOLIVIA🇧🇴 I still have my Digipack TFtheTL❤ Everytime i listen this versión my tears fall down. It reminds me who i am. All my mistakes and i wonder myself how am i here still standing.❤

AWESOME !!!!!

WOW, what a great band full of class and talent!!! Hail the mighty Amorphis!!!

can't describe how epic this is... just listen..

Finland: cold weather, but very hot Metal! \m/

no word can describe how mouch i love his voice and growl!!!

why dont the world now more about Amorphis!proud to be from Finland.

I cannot like this enough >.< It's SO FUCKING EPIC!

When I first heard this, back in 2004, I thought it was basically loud and uninteresting. Then I heard it another time and really liked the intro, then I put it on my car music and have probably listened to one version or another a thousand times. The best time ever was live at the Divan du Monde in Paris last year. Esa playing his electric sitar-type thing was just phenomenal.

Better than the studio version!!! I love it!!!

fantastic!

Love this band

Just listened the whole production... all 13 albums... and of course ended it for this song. Like they want it to be.

Pasi was and always will be the best and the ONLY Amorphis vocalist for me..

What an amazing song, absolutely breathtaking!

Very good !!!

It's amazing what a mellow, relaxing and beautiful song the acoustic version of My Kantele is, contrasted with the absolute chaos of the electric version. Love this song 🤘

kiitos 1000 times, Amorphis!

So fucking beautiful.

Truly they lie, they talk utter nonsense Who say that music reckon that the kantele Was fashioned by a god Out of a great pike's shoulders From a water-dog's hooked bones: It was made from the grief Its belly out of hard days Its soundboard from endless woes Its strings gathered from torments And its pegs from other ills Truly they lie, they talk utter nonsense [x2] So it will not play, will not rejoice at all Music will not play to please Give off the right sort of joy For it was fashioned from cares Moulded from sorrow.

Tomi Joutsen wasn't the lead vocalist when 'Tales from a thousand lakes' came out. His vocals on this live version of 'My Kantele' show why he is the best (by far) front man Amorphis has ever had. Finnish metal is cool.

The first lead singer was the guy who plays rhythm guitar (he has the white Gibson Les Paul Guitar) he did the harsh vocals for the original song as well. It took me a while to get used to Pasi's clean vocals, but Tomi does such an amazing job, I'm so glad he's in the band.

Heavenly

Amazing how this kinda music totally nails it, and I'm normally more of a cattle decap/fleshgod apocalypse/infant annihilator type of listener. Since the early days of the Karelian Isthmus this band has really evolved in so many brilliant ways. Absolutely superb stuff :)

I love this song but one thing about the lyrics intrigues me: "They (...) who say that music reckon that the kantele was fashioned by God", I don't really get what they are saying here. Is it maybe just broken English (like it should be "music reckonS"), can anyone help me out here? ;)

@SCarpelan

7 жыл бұрын

The lyrics - and the old poem they are based on - talk about the birth of kantele like it also gave birth to music itself. In this case, the subject of the verb "reckon" is "who" in the previous line. I don't know if this is bad English but it's allowed in Finnish grammar and this structure is directly translated from the original poem: Jotka soittoa sanovat, (Who say that music) Arvelevat kanteletta ([Who] Reckon that the kantele)

@@FeedThemCake The post is confusing since I didn't include the next line: "Was fashioned by a god." So the meaning is that the creation of the first kantele was also the creation of music. If I recall correctly in the version in Kalevala it is Väinämöinen (the main hero and the first human to be created but who is not an actual god) who does this which suggests there are several interpretations as usual in folklore.

@@SCarpelan OK I think I understand, so it's saying that that both music and the Kantele were fashioned by a god. thanks for clarifying.
