This weekend was all about letting go and saying goodbye.

Very sad indeed for those who did not find a way out Bless.

Just in case I forget:

You're the Best - Joe Esposito

Allah's Apostle told us a long narrative about Ad-Dajjal, and among the many things he mentioned, was his saying, "Ad-Dajjal will come and it will be forbidden for him to pass through the entrances of Medina. He will land in some of the salty barren areas (outside) Medina; on that day the best man or one of the best men will come up to him and say, 'I testify that you are the same Dajjal whose description was given to us by Allah's Apostle.' Ad-Dajjal will say to the people, 'If I kill this man and bring him back to life again, will you doubt my claim?' They will say, 'No.' Then Ad-Dajjal will kill that man and bring him back to life. That man will say, 'Now I know your reality better than before.' Ad-Dajjal will say, 'I want to kill him but I cannot.' "

I kind of can’t believe that this Saami Bear Hunting joik is still circulating as "Amerind" with all the stereotypical kitsch romantic idealism, which in truth might be far from real reality in-the-now.

Very interesting thanks for sharing. First I have to say I'm not surprised that the song ended up being misappropriated for commercial interests. When I first listened to the Album, 'Sacred Chants', mid 90s I think, the internet has just about gotten started, YouTube was still 10 years away. I liked the Album it was a bit different and the tracks are still good today, however, they are a bit stiff and romanticised as you allude to. Overproduced.
The version you shared seems more natural to the native tongue of the singer, really nice, thanks for sharing. You know as a child there was a show on tv called the boy from Lapland, not sure if the opening tune is Saami etc. but i always found it very inspiring and waited eagerly for the song every week. Thanks once again.

Never knew about it. Looks Norwegian. Opening tune is so Saami. Although not all Saami are reindeer herders, some “Sea Saami” are/were fishermen and some “Forest Saami” were still hunter-gatherers …
The worst thing was Amerinds accusing Saami for cultural appropriation – lol.
So over it now though.

For us Viena Karel/Saami/Siberian mixes the “joik” is more like from 2:36 to 2:50 of my signature song (love it!) as we had/have got this animal sound imitation and the he-he … ho-ho thing going on.
From 0:00 to 0:25 and then they kind of Finnicized it into a typical song :angry1: rather than it being ‘shamanic’ communication with the “Universal Echo” …
