Wonderful sounding music, you're all very talented. Thank you for sharing.
My granddaughter is a Wallin from the Malmo area of Sweden.
😢kohta Torreviejaan . Upeaa musiikkia aina vaan. T. Kari- ZPekka
My favorite Finnish American singer was always Leo Kauppi; he had this modern rough style, though he didn't write many songs. How nice that you preserve the Finnish American music heritage. It's close to my heart.
🎼🎼👍
Liisa-serkku vinkkasi tästä.🙂 Terveisiä Kauhajoelta, varsinkin Lotalle! Hyvin te vedättte 👏

This is precisely the way this song should be performed! :D Greetings from this side of the pond.
My grandmother, from Småland Sweden sewed rya matta, I always heard it pronounced ree-ah mah-ta (rya rug). Love your video. My mother bought me a loom in Sweden and I have yet to use it, and now I must. I have made small rag rug style pieces on a lap loom. Thank you all! Täck så mycket.
Great!
Great ! Finland on my mind!
Absolutely a great and thoughtful presentation. What a heartfelt connection.
Torstai meitä nyt lohduttaa.. Thursday comforts us now. Thursday was apparently a pretty normal pay day in Hiski Salomaa's time in America. That's apparently what those words are about.
Thursday evenings were commonly free time for servants those days.
Hieno veto!
Beautiful workmanship.........do you sell them?
Parhautta! This is probably the most famous of Hiski's songs and while he was not a great singer, he definitely had a way with words. Nice performance!
So interesting! I think rag rugs are comin back into fashion. Greetings from Finland!
Wonderful presentation Lisa!
Lisa, your wall piece is wonderful with all the treasures from your grandparents stash
Hurray for ryja rugs!
Kunnon Ärr...
This is perfect Finnish! Most finns don't sing that well...
Aivan ihku ja upea esitys. ;):)
Fantastic
Great
