The first is a folk song from Lapland
sung by a woman called Sammi (I think I’ve got that right.) What I don’t
understand is why she’s got black hair when she comes from northern Scandinavia, but I don’t suppose it matters.
The second is also a folk song, from Wales this
time. I wrote a comment which said:
This is a most
remarkable voice. At once both childlike and mature, fresh and primeval,
soothing and compelling. I'm not convinced she's human, you know. I suspect
she's an interloper from the realm of wood nymphs and elves. Bet she disappears
sometimes and comes back covered in twigs and things. Must find some more of
her music and see whether the squirrels gather at the window to listen.
It didn’t get any likes. And I assume Ms Goodman is Welsh,
which probably explains everything.
