So beautiful it makes me want to move to Estonia with great love and respect from the USA

It's actually a part of very tragic story of an orphan who is tortured and prays to the Moon to be taken away before she does some nice mass murders....

Ma võtsin selle laulu nüüd enda elu hümniks :D. Video lõpus tahab iga kord minu arusaamatu õrn naisehing pisaraid välja valada. Tänan, et Te selle kogu asja nii ilusasti teinud olete!

[@TavotiTuub]

Nele Kirsipuu Tantsutrupp Uppsar, Märt Agu juhtimisel on sellele loole teinud tantsu. Nad astusid üles Võru Folgil. Päikeseprillid olid mul kaasas ...

so close to million views

[@IsabelliNolve]

Nii ilus

[@LeaLittleDanishGirl]

Estonia 🇪🇪

[@tarmoladva7225]

Ilus lugu Aadama ja Eva kohtumisest ja paradiisist Põlva metsades. Kõik on võimalik, siin ja praegu, nüüd ja kohe. Ilus lugu otsimisest ja puudutusest. Koosolemine on võimalik vaid siis kui naine jääb muinasjutuks millest ei peagi aru saama. Eestlased on uneskõndijad ja nõidrahvas. Palju õnne mõistjatele, hoidke seda suurt saladust ja kasutage äärmisel vajadusel. Nõiasõnad on põhjanael pimeduses tee otsijaile. Otsingud on oleviku mesi.

[@michaelbee1218]

Beautiful words.....🙏🏼❤

[@agnetalind9178]

Nii ilusat juttu, polegi vist varem kuulnud! ❤

[@wilterfilho]

What a beautiful video, I really loved it but I wished I could understand the lyrics

[@TradAttack]

Hei! The lyrics are a request to the moon to give youth and strength to the body.
Dear moon, (Kuukene, kullakene)
sweet dawn star, (armas aotähekene)
take me to yourself! (võta minno hindäle!)
May my body get strong, (Saas mu kihä kinmäs)
and resistant/durable. (jahumatt jaksas!)

[@KatyXa24]

I felt in love with your music at the "Spirit of Tengri". This song made me cry. So Beautiful! Are you planning to visit Almaty this year?

[@TradAttack]

Thank you! :) This year we wont come to Almaty.

[@oojaa2]

That native american flute motif reminds me of ANE + WHG: A blend of mesolithic hemi-boreal europeans (uralics) and native americans as both an offspring (or close relatives) of paleolithic Mal'ta. A modern reincarnation. Let's try to keep the forests.

[@kajaraudoja8968]

Eh, naljatilgad - ei mingit jahumatti! Kuulake hoolsamalt! Ohates lausutakse: "Ja, oh, ma et jaksas (=jaksaks)!"

[@sandrasillamaa6557]

Kaja Raudoja Tere, Inimesed kuulevad erinevalt seda teksti ning lähenevad subjektiivselt. Meie saime selle arhiivist, kus seda teksti on analüüsinud inimesed, kes igapäevselt sarnaste tekstidega kokku puutuvad ning teavad ka ajaloolist tausta. Seega võib sellele vabalt olla mitu lähenemist :)

[@kajaraudoja8968]

***** Ma ei ole keeleteadlane, seega ei saa vaielda. Minu kõrv kuuleb nii ja see tundub olevat ka loogiline. Lapsepõlvest kõrvus esivanemate (ka väga väärikas eas olnute) kõneldud ehe ja puhas mulgi murre (Tarvastu), kuid Kõivud vist Võrumaa päritolu ja murdekeel veidi erinev. Jahumati sõna on võõras, jahu nimetati püüliks. Lugu ise aga lummav!

[@sandrasillamaa6557]

Kaja Raudoja Mina ka ei ole ja ei julge vaielda sellel teemal :) Olen usaldanud arhiivi inimesi, sest nemad tegelevad, uurivad, analüüsivad sarnaseid tekste. Samas on ka nemad ütelnud, et see on üks võimalik tõlgendus. Päriselt teavad vist ainult need lauljad, mida nad mõtlesid :)

[@TavotiTuub]

Kaja Raudoja Teil on tõenäoliselt õige interpretatsioon ja ka loogiline, aga Kirjandusmuuseum paneb selle kirja nii nagu see kuuldub "keskmisele treenimata kõrvale" (Lõuna-Eesti keele mõttes). Kõnekeeles ja lauludes on tihti sõnades ja sõnaühendites häälikute kadu nii, et kirja on pandud see õigesti. Näiteks: "A kes siis?" -> Aga kes siis?

[@mees4578]

best

[@TradAttack]

Thanks!!!

[@mees4578]

I love how you take old Estonian songs and turn them into pop-music like music

[@TradAttack]

@@mees4578 Thank you!!! :)

Zgodnie z tradycją lasowiacką w Polsce jagody zbierało się dopiero po święcie Matki Boskiej Jagodnej.( obecnie 2 lipca). Darz Bór

Hopefully in autumn! ;)

[@rubenruben6605]

Hea laul

[@badt1]

Millegipärast seda videot vaadates meenus mulle "Baths - Lovely Bloodflow" Video.
Aga hea lugu ja video on.

[@ryanshah2791]

see u in world music festival

[@TradAttack]

Yes!!! Al ready next week!!!

Ma armastan tema laul.

kui katsuda nähtut-kuuldut iseloomustada ühe sõnaga, siis - lummav. paneks veel nii mõnedki pöidlad püsti, aga ei saa kahjuks.

Can someone recommend any Estonian album? Folk, metal, orchestral, electronic, hiphop(without glorifying bad behaviour).

[@TradAttack]

Hey, If you go and check out our Spotify page then you can find a TRAD.ESTONIA! playlist and there you can listen to all the Estonian folk albums.

[@kulnokaiklem]

ua-cam.com/video/d0zVKS6vJes/v-deo.html Collage and estonian regilaul.

[@karlj591]

Metsatöll has alot of good stuff (albums like Hiiekoda, Äio, Iivakivi etc). Their older stuff tends to be better, however some good songs from latest albums also. Also dont know which album it was, but there was a good song "Oort - Aeti Mu Mõtsa". Sõjaruun is a little too dark for my taste, however they have one good track "Sõjaruun - Talv".

[@nelev.6562]

Suurepärane kunst - muusika ja video sulandub üheks, lihtsalt võrratu

[@monmondi4259]

Does kuukene directly translate to moon in English? (Google translate is confusing me)

[@10Caramella]

In english it translates to moon, but in estonian it basicly means dear moon

[@Lo_.]

Kas keegi saaks sellest instrumentaali teha? Kuigi see laul on hea anyways :)

[@TradAttack]

AITÄH! :) kindlasti saab...oleneb, milleks vaja on :)

[@arturlaur5527]

normalne
