• IEVAN POLKKA 2021 by L...
EDIT: I added the STORY IN ENGLISH! :-)
Huikeatunnelmaisen 50-vuotisjuhlakonserttini huippuhetkiä oli esittää rakkaan Loituman kanssa Ievan polkka. Kiitos, upeat Anita, Sari ja Timo kaikista näistä vuosista! :-) Ja kiitos Jarmo Romppaselle kuvaamisesta!
This clip is from one of the most precious moments of my 50th birthday concert in Nov 2019. Thank you Anita, Sari and Timo for all these years! Thanks also to Jarmo Romppanen for shooting and editing this! Now, everybody, have fun! :-)
Ievan polkka is a traditional Finnish melody with original lyrics by Eino Kettunen and additional lyrics by Loituma. Polka is a folk dance and Ieva is the Savonian (Eastern Finnish dialect) version of the name Eeva (Eva).
Esiintyjät vasemmalta oikealle / The performers from left to right:
Sari Kauranen, Anita Lehtola-Tollin, Timo Väänänen and Hanni Autere
IEVAN POLKKA - THE STORY
The storyteller is a young lad, who has a crush on a girl named Ieva (a Savonian version of Eeva, the Finnish Eva). The couple wants to dance together, no matter what. It’s a story about affection and the importance of dancing.
There is a sound of polka rhythm drifting from the neighbour (it might be Ieva’s house where people have gathered to dance). The lad says his feet long for dance. Ieva has her mother guarding her, but Ieva fools her and gets to dance with the lad. He’s saying: ”We don’t care about any restrictions when we are dancing all over the floor”.
Ieva is smiling widely as people wish her good luck. (Not sure, but maybe ’cause they had noticed the young fine lad being interested in her and people look at her with an implying gaze.) Everybody has their hair wet from sweating on the dance floor, and the fiddle is howling and wailing. In the end the lad says: ”I don’t mind being wet when dancing to and fro”.
Well, now Ieva’s mother is singing hymns in her own room (she probably didn’t like the idea of having a ball in her house). In the meantime the lad is wooing Ieva in the room next door (having a break from dancing). And the lad says that he doesn’t care about what any old women say as long as he can dance.
”We had fun after the dancing, and I got to canoodle once”. (It’s not obvious what Kettunen is saying here, but he alludes presumably to making love somewhere.) When they get home, Ieva’s mother is angry and Ieva starts to weep. The lad says: ”I told Ieva that it doesn’t matter and we’ll be dancing again”.
The lad continues: ”I told the mother: you shut your mouth, or else I won’t guarantee your health. You’ll stay healthy if you grab your bones and have a rest in your room”. He also tells that he doesn’t care for being so gentle when he’s taking the ladies all over the dance floor.
The lad is speaking to Ieva’s mother: ”I’ll tell you, you need to chew, ’cause I’m not to be swallowed just like that. (meaning that he won’t give up easily.) You can go from east to west, but I’m not giving up Ieva.” And he continues: ”For this lad doesn’t care for being too modest, when dancing to and fro”.
LYRICS (in Finnish)
by Eino Kettunen
Nuapurista kuulu se polokan tahti
Jalakani pohjii kutkutti.
Ievan äiti se tyttöösä vahti
Vaan kyllähän Ieva sen jutkutti,
Sillä ei meitä silloin kiellot haittaa
Kun myö tanssimme laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput tupput täppyt
äppyt tipput hilijalleen.
Ievan suu oli vehnäsellä
Ko immeiset onnee toevotti.
Peä oli märkänä jokaisella
Ja viulu se vinku ja voevotti.
Ei tätä poikoo märkyys haittaa
Sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput…
Ievan äiti se kammarissa
Virsiä veisata huijjuutti,
Kun tämä poika naapurissa
ämmän tyttöä nuijjuutti.
Eikä tätä poikoo ämmät haittaa
Sillon ko laskoo laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput…
Improvised solo
Siellä oli lystiä soiton jäläkeen
Sain minä kerran sytkyyttee.
Kottiin ko mäntii ni ämmä se riitelj
Ja Ieva jo alako nyyhkyytteek.
Minä sanon Ievalle mitäpä se haittaa
Laskemma vielähi laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput…
Muorille sanon jotta tukkee suusi
En ruppee sun terveyttäs takkoomaan.
Terveenä peäset ku korjoot luusi
Ja määt siitä murjuus makkoomaan.
Ei tätä poikoo hellyys haittaa
Ko akkoja huhkii laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput…
Sen minä sanon jotta purra pittää
Ei mua niin vuan nielasta.
Suat männä ite vaikka lännestä ittään
Vuan minä en luovu Ievasta,
Sillä ei tätä poikoo kainous haittaa
Sillon ko tanssii laiasta laitaan.
Salivili hipput…

@@haribolbeatbox7417 :-)
Timo is my favourite powerranger, he just seems like a chill dude.
Makes me want to learn Finnish just because the language sounds so complex and fun
=) Well, this is not the regular Finnish, it's the dialect from eastern part of the country.
The Grammar is a handful, and if your mother tongue is English, the phonetics probably as well. Most central Europeans don't have a problem with the phonetics, but English has shifted and limited its vowels so much that other languages can become difficult.
I got confused why they sounded similar to the original song, then I realised this is them
Yep! :-)
omg same, I thought it was other people covering in the present and then read the comments :O
@@soil80 Yep, it's us. :-)
And to be honest, I am really glad they are. Most bands would have disbanded in that time, but not them. Keep up the awesome work!
@@HanniAutere What language is this? I love the rhythm and the voices. You guys sound almost exactly the same as the first time. It's amazing how music is indeed the universal language, I don't care if i understand or not, i still dance and have a good time with my 9 year old daughter. Thank you!
Aaand still... One of the best things the internet has ever brought us! Glad to see these guys are still out there doing their thing!
Hello there
Yep, we are still alive. :-)

When they said "Salivili hipput tupput täppyt, Äppyt tipput hilijalleen" I felt that
You felt what? :-)
@@HanniAutere exactly
@@HanniAutere probably the phonetics, because the sound of that sentence sounds amazing (even though i don´t know finnish =) )
@@Boxenjou :-) OK
What does it mean in English
This feels like meeting with old friends you havent seen for years.
=)
It's been years, and the dude still got pol
Seeing them this grown up puts it into perspective how old ago they first sang this hit, they looked sooo young
=) Yes, time flies and 25 years go really fast.
@@HanniAutere really fast :/
Are they sooo old right now?
THE MAN OF THE GROUP STILL LOOKS EXTREMELY HANDSOME
Yep! But the main thing is that he is a great musician. :-)
@17mohara Hara He is Timo Väänänen.
just less awkward this time around. Looks like he got some more self-confidence.
@@Snoken127 =) That's what age does... it increases for example self-confidence. =)

@@baconpro7351 Thanks! The original is from 1937, I think. So, anyway, the song is really old. =)
I love how this “kids song” become legendary after 4 ppl did it like this. Its awsome! No special effects, no millions in some video clip, just 4 ppl singing and look how many ppl know this song now! And its pretty awsome to hear it after quite some years performed by same ppl and it still has its energy! Good job!
After all these year's they still look like they were enjoying singing it ❤️🔥

At the age of 20, I was thrown into Turkish prisons as a political prisoner, and I heard this song for the first time while in my cell, on the guards' radio, with a distant voice. Then one day, I saw it on TV in the prison warden's office and fell in love with the singing woman standing in the middle. 20 years later I was found innocent and released from prison and I think I'm still in love with that woman❤❤❤

@@lukedaikitoo OK. :-) You're welcome. Our pleasure!
I am not small, levan polka music that has been very successful
@@HasanBozkurt2508 :-)
When you realise that the original video that was posted on youtube in 2008 has more views then the population of Finland.
And was recorded 12 years before that.
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!
If internet were state, this would be the national anthem

Maybe one day, they can do an a capella arrangement of The Internet's other favourite song - a 1987 hit for a little-known English chap by the name of Rick Astley... :D
1,5 million views! AMAZING! Thank you so much for every view!
You all deserve every view this gets, it's incredible! I'm glad all of you are still around and well, keep up the great work! Your performance of this song is absolutely iconic.
@@DuncanMcBride Wow, thanks! =)
Crazy to think the other performance has more views than Finland has people eh? Good job.
@@Jasper_Hill Yep, some 5,5 million people here and some 27 million views in one of the Ieva videos. =) Crazy indeed!
Proud of you all for staying close through the years
I love how they look exactly like they did in the 90s, just matured :)
The lady on the left is still a pretty nerd. 😊
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.

I wish you all a very happy new year! Stay safe and healthy and listen to music!
We're so happy you all put this wonderful piece together. Been listening to this for almost two years and have always what happened to everyone. You all aged like fine wine. Happy new year loituma. ❤️
@@SadBooter Thank you! :-)
Lovely!
You too!

Hi everybody! We are approaching half a million views! Amazing! :-D To celebrate that I have almost done the video to teach you the first verse of Ievan polkka in FINNISH. It'll be ready in a couple of days. I want to make a good video and prepare it well for you.
Yaaay! :)))I've discovered this amazing masterpiece a few days ago (shameful but better than never) I can't stop listening to it !! Gives me such a heavenly feeling! I'm grateful! 🙏 Many thanks and best regards from Croatia! 🥰.
@@TheLela1222 pozz sestro isto iz Hrvatske. I ja slušam ovo stalno... Good vibes. ✌️

As good as in 90's! This song lifts my mood up =)
Greetings from Saint-Petersburg, Russia! I absolutely love Finland and finnish culture =)
=)
Ох, раз ты в Питере живёшь, наверное, и в Финляндии бывал(а). Там рядом всё)
Я вот из Москвы, но как раз хочу поехать в СПб на недельку. Что посоветуешь посетить?
@@user-pt8om4qv1s да, я из Петербурга и в Финляндии бывал более 10 раз =) В Петербурге советую посетить исторический центр, Эрмитаж, Елагин остров и Петергоф
I am speechless, they got the same voices after so many years!
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. =)
years pass but damn, this guy is still lookin hella fresh not gonna lie
:-)
Yea he still is calling for Paul. Wherever he is
@@meeq87 You made my day... :-)))))))))) Paul, Paul, Paul, Paul...
Sweet people, beautiful language and SUCH a masterpiece of a song. Just discovered it recently and I am obsessed.
What is much more interesting is that their voice remained the same after decades
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.

I would love to see all of you sing live! Lots of love from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺❤️
This is so wholesome and makes me feel like the world's such a happy place.
