Vodka - the very first. It's really groung-breaking... The other two were much harder to choose. I chose Kultanainen. I enjoy Kalevala themes, and when I listen to this song, I think it would be great to play it on an acoustic guitar - what a great ballad it could be then! But I have no idea how I will be translating that on Russian. Also, I simply like the refrain and the melody after it. The third was the hardest... I decided to choose Kohmelo, because it's a great outro - but it doesn't associate with hangover. The ninth song, Huppiaan Aarre, is much more "hangoverish" - bad that I don't know about what are the lyrics...

My favourite is Uniaika - "The Dreamtime" - see here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DreamtimeThe idea to sing about this is great - where do we live - in the real life or in Uniaika and which is the real one? The other two are: Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle Vesaisen Sota It will be great someone to translate the titles in English. Please!

"Erämaan Ärjyt", "Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle" and "Bring Us Pints of Beer" Great songs. Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle is my favourite Can't tell why. Bring us Pints of Beer is great for partying, the other two just sound great ;D

My Favourite -> Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle (according to a Finnish person from youtube: "to the holder of the forest blanket"). I fell in love with it the first time I heard it. It reminds me of "Kipumylly" and yet it's quite unique in it's own way. So far, as I don't know the meaning of the song, I rely on the melody and Jonne's voice. They're just perfect :] .
*Does someone know where I can find the whole lyrics? :]

1. Vodka - Life feels always worth of living after this song. Cheers me up everytime / any situation. 2. Erämaan Ärjyt - Quite a same thing here. Brings out some animalistic side from me. I dont start to cause disturbance or anything like that what I never do (on purpose at least), but I feel so "Äijä" (da man) when jumping with this song. 3. Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle - My eyes went wet when I first heard part of this song. Now after hearing it several times it just keeps getting better. It is really hard to describe what I feel with this one. It's like sitting beside the fire by the lake in the late summer evening and wondering the world what it looks like now. The lyrics I read yesterday must have affected me even more towards this feeling. -Probably just the feeling that Jonne/Juha were trying listener to achieve. Hittis with his violin and Jonne's voice work so well here. Well everything in fact.
Of course it would be possible to try translate the lyrics with my limited knowledge of language, but then I'd probably feel bad of "raping" Juha's texts so I'd better not to think about it.

I am sure with the time I'll change the order,as for now... Vodka got to me from the first audition! Since it was released I sing it daily,mainly the refrain ;D There's no way you hear it and won't start singing or dancing. Joudaan Viina's my next choice for it contains a simple cheerful harmony..and the melody is catchy. Kohmelo...hmm..maybe because it surprised a certain state of mind when l first listened. PS: I made the comments while drinking viina ;D ;D

Got to be Vodka, especially because of the (gracing my profile in Finnish ) Must also be Uniaika because it is fucking epic and Könnin Kuokkamies because I just really like it! I like Kultanainen too. I call one of my ladies that now too haha

oh Vodka is the first korpi song i don't like much.../ other tunes are great! & especially love that evolution of the band that makes me very curious in live but i'll answer that poll when i'll replay the cd. by now saltatio mortis is on btw, korpiklaani, I sent an email on the myspace.

I voted for Könnin Kuoklamies, Vesaisen Sota & Kohmelo as my favourites but I also enjoy Vodka & Bring us Pints of Beer to add to my drinking songs and even though I don't understand Juodaan Valtiaale, I'm going to add that one to my drinking songs too!

I only chose Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle and Vodka as I couldn't quite find a third song.
Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle was the first song that really struck me when I heard the album, and I just love the percussions on that one. Vodka is of course very easy to get into as it's damn catchy, and it's one of those that instantly gets you in a good mood.
Those two songs are actually those that I kept repeating, to be honest I couldn't really find into the rest of the album.

Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle instrus. & riffs are just lovely.^^
Könnin Kuokkamies (Bonus track) great instrus - great singing that singing seems like a particular effort (idem for Uniaika - well done indeed!)
Kohmelo Thats a very nice ending.
A thing I pretty like about korpiklaani & that karkelo, they are still those shaman from their begining inside. we could feel some little change in korven, & that last, karkelo, is many changes. but thats still our korpiklaani. its a good evolution like i think its good that changed name.or that was a good decision.
but in karkelo, everyone has given something new. True Vodka is my less favorite song (& the 1st one!) but sometimes I wonder if that firm didnt kill the compo. that isn't cuz korpiklaani band but something else, that wrong thing. I don't know & i dont wanna know but some of you seems to enjoy it.
btw, I think "Vodka" may be good in live.
But the video is really horrible to me. that doesnt look like our korpi, that vid. i'm sorry -just telling my opinions. maybe i'm wrong but thats doesnt matter.
When I compare vodka with the rest of the album. then that "failed" vodka (for me) - thats really nothing. whats one song among 13 songs signed with an evolution ? other songs are brillant. & yes i repeat it, its a nice evolution & nice gift!
I was impressed then well done korpiklaani! once again, you made a great job!
