Дякую за найкраще виконання Щедрика. Привіт українській громаді !
Ancient Slavs celebrated New Year on 21st March, that's why it talks about a swallow. Swallows usually don't fly around in the freezing winter XD.
Йде до плейлісту! Дякую!
"The song is based on a traditional folk chant whose language was thought to have magical properties. The original traditional Ukrainian text used a device known as hemiola in the rhythm (alternating the accents within each measure from 3/4 to 6/8 and back again). The chant based on an ostinato four-note pattern within the range of a minor third is thought to be of prehistoric origins and was associated with the coming New Year which in Ukraine before the introduction of Christianity was originally celebrated in April." The version arranged for choir that became the melody for Carol of the Bells was arranged by Mykola Leontovych in 1916 who also wrote the first church litany in vernacular Ukranian. He was shot and his family robbed by a Soviet agent in 1921 as part of Soviet suppression of Ukranian culture and identity; 9 months before it was sung at Carnegie Hall to much acclaim, then after radio play had an English version of the lyrics added. Mykola Leontovych was declared a martyr by the Orthodox Church, the same one now backing Putin.
Everytime I watch this, I cry bc of the betrayal my pagan ancestors must've felt when this was done to them
Amazing energy ???????

I’m not a Christian or any related religion because I believe that if there is a God, there is a Goddess. Not “Mrs God” but her own force. So what’s the point? Just that I believe any practices are okay as long as they don’t harm others. Your music somehow reinforces my beliefs.
Slava Ukraini!!! Hail the heroes!!!

We were dancers. We were free
When I saw The Ukrainians back in April at a fundraiser for Ukraine at Salisbury Arts Centre, and heard the familiar strains of She's Lost Control in the middle of this song on the accordian, I lost my sh*t.
Slava Ukraini
can't s.o. put this on twitter ... or else?! All the best to Ukrain(ians) whereever they be & stay strong!
I’m loving the detour via she’s lost control
It's a fantastic album and one must see them live because they rock.
