The Finnish national anthem is very beautiful, I enjoyed listening to that.

@ enviro isn't it? i was blown away the first time i listened to that.
it's one my 3 favorite national anthems, up there with Azerbaijan's and Belgium's.

when i was in my preteens i loved the song "Sleeping Sun" by Nightwish, when Turunen was still in it. and i still do.
i memorized the entire thing and sang it to myself whenever i went.
even in Aikido practice once.

I recognise the Finnish national anthem from many years of watching the Winter Olympics.

Actually, the theme played when a gold medal is a fact, is Porilaisten marssi.

Well, I recognised it from somewhere, anyway.

Meanwhile, we Americans have only one, but we're nationalistic enough that we blare it at every middle school football match. ^_^

I was very excited to understand the first half of your signature without having to use a dictionary. How cool is that? I had to look up the last two words though.

Suo = marsh, quag, swamp. Then Suo + sta = from marsh.

The whole thing says essentially, "Russian truck is designed to be raised from (the) swamp." I knew you would read it and that's why I took it.

Who put the truck in the swamp, and why did they do that?

Because they are Russian.

You need more explanation than that?

@Krabo - learning Finnish one signature at a time. :wink:
