"Summer Moved On" - a-ha

"Miss Squeeze's ABC February" Day 19/28

In this, Morten Harket set the European record for the longest note held in a top 40 pop song. He sustains a chest voice note for 20.2 second.

Or as he said jokingly at a live performance: "I think that long note is Pål's attempt at keeping me young..."

"Balladen om Herr Fredrik Åkare och den söte fröken Cecilia Lind" - Cornelis Vreeswijk

("The Ballad of Mr. Fredrik Åkare and the Darling Miss Cecilia Lind")

"Miss Squeeze's ABC February" Day 2/28

Cornelis Vreeswijk was one of the most important and beloved songwriters and troubadours in modern Swedish/Scandinavian history. This song is one of his most well known and beautiful songs.

Original lyrics and translation:

Translation source (I love that this translation has managed to translate it well while still keeping the poetry of the original lyrics.)

"2,665,866,746,664 Little Devils" - Ole Marius Melhus and Benedicte Adrian

"Miss Squeeze's ABC February" Day 28/28

From a concert performance of the rock opera "Which Witch" in 1990.

The story is set mid-16th century and the main character Maria has been accused of witchcraft.

Spoken in Norwegian at the beginning:

"Maria seeks help from Cardinal Gonzaga, an expert in devilry and demonology. He's done the math and come to the conclusion that there are 2,665,866,746,664 little devils in the world."

"Ågren" - Cornelis Vreeswijk and Östen Warnerbring

"Miss Squeeze's ABC February" Day 26/28

"Ågren" is Swedish slang for a hangover, so this is a quite beautiful song about the morning after the night before. When trying to find a word to use in the translation I landed on "Vesalgia", which is an English slang term for a hangover.

The rhymes in the translation are far from perfect, but I hope the translated text can be of some use anyway.

"Den du veit" - Marius Müller

("The One You Know")

"Miss Squeeze's ABC February" Day 4/28

Marius Müller was widely regarded as one of the greatest Norwegian guitarists of all time, this was probably his biggest hit.

Norwegian lyrics and translation. (The translation may not be the most poetic, but I did my best to at least try to make them passable...)

9th symphony, movement #4: "Til gleden" - Tramteatret

("An de freude"/"Ode to Joy" by Ludwig van Beethoven)

"Miss Squeeze's ABC February" Day 27/28

Such a cool take on the final movement of Beethoven's 9th symphony.

This is from a Norwegian childrens' series from 1981. Tramteatret was an actual band/theatre group who also made childrens' programs, so everyone is playing for real. This was the finale of the last episode of this series.
