Review by Emily Rhodes

The Mighty Ship/The Tree by Bamse – A Wild Ride Through 1982 Denmark Alright, buckle up, because Bamse’s The Mighty Ship/The Tree is one wild trip down memory lane. Released in 1982 under the Danish label KMF, this album smashes together rock and pop with a side of Schlager and Pop Rock vibes. It's like someone took a jukebox from a Copenhagen dive bar, shook it hard, and hit play. And you know what? It kinda works. First off, let’s talk about “The Mighty Ship.” This track slams into your ears like a freight train made of steel guitars and swagger. The production feels raw—almost too raw—but that’s part of its charm. You can tell producer Stein wasn’t messing around; he wanted grit, and boy, did he get it. The chorus sticks to your brain like gum on a hot summer sidewalk. I mean, seriously, try not humming it after the first listen. You can’t. It’s impossible. There’s something oddly hypnotic about how the melody bounces between cheesy Schlager hooks and punchy rock riffs. Is it genius or just plain weird? Maybe both. Either way, it’s unforgettable. Then there’s “The Tree,” which takes things down a notch but still packs a wallop. If “The Mighty Ship” is the rowdy party starter, “The Tree” is the guy sitting in the corner, smoking a cigarette, and staring at you like he knows all your secrets. The lyrics are simple, almost naive, but they carry this strange weight. Like, who doesn’t think about trees sometimes, right? The bassline here is sneaky good—it creeps up on you when you least expect it. And those harmonies? Damn. They’re so retro they might as well come with shoulder pads and leg warmers. But again, it’s catchy as hell. You’ll find yourself singing along even though you don’t wanna admit it. Now, full disclosure: this album ain’t perfect. Some parts sound like they were recorded in someone’s garage (and maybe they were). Lacquer cut by OR? Sure, cool, but let’s be real—it shows. Yet somehow, these imperfections make it more endearing. It’s like listening to an old friend ramble about their wild youth. Yeah, they stumble over words, and yeah, some stories don’t land, but you love ‘em anyway. So here’s the kicker: Why does an obscure Danish album from 1982 still matter today? Beats me. But maybe that’s the point. In a world obsessed with polished playlists and algorithm-driven hits, The Mighty Ship/The Tree reminds us that music doesn’t have to be perfect to leave a mark. It just has to feel alive. Oh, and if you ever meet Bamse, ask him where he got those killer chord progressions. Dude won’t answer, but hey, it’s worth a shot.

Danish singer, songwriter, musician and actor (born Flemming Duun Jørgensen on February 7, 1947 in Randers - January 1. 2011 in Århus). He was best known as the lead singer of pop group founded in 1973. Although having released solo albums since 1977 he got his commercial breakthrough with the cover album "Stand By Me" in 1999, which sold more than 200,000 copies. His musical style ranged from pop to classic country rock. To date he has sold more than 3.5 million albums both as a solo artist and as a member of Bamses Venner. He passed away on January 1, 2011 in his home in Egå, a suburb of Aarhus, at the age of 63. His nickname "Bamse" (which he later adopted as his middle name) means "teddy bear" but is also slang for a big man.

Interesting fact about Album

Did you know? In 1982, a Danish band named Bamse released an album called *The Mighty Ship / The Tree*. It’s a mix of rock and pop with a hint of schlager and pop rock vibes. The album was produced by someone credited simply as "Stein, Jazz," which sounds more like a cool nickname than a full name. Only two tracks are on the record, but sometimes less is more, right? It came out on the KMF label, and if you’re into vinyl, you might spot the initials “OR” for the lacquer cut. Not your typical album, but definitely quirky and unique in its own way.
