I was listening to Liigua by them right when I was reading it. I got so happy!
I took as a sign to respond.
I understand your pain. I always feel a bit weird haveing them pop up on my speakers when I have friends over because:
A. I'm in college and I look like the type of girl that would be listening to Lady Gaga or something, not world folk music.
B. I'm American with no Finnish ancestry or ties. (I find the language absolutely beautiful even though I have no idea what they are saying)

But I would love everything if they got some fame here. I think they have amazing vocals and unique sound which always prompts me to dance.
Anon has good taste

Oh, I know how you feel! With me, though, they're kind of the anomaly in my music collection - the majority of my music is dance and techno, and I am quite fond of Lady Gaga. There's just something about Värttinä that I love, though, and I really can't quite explain it fully. I've been trying to get my friends interested in them for a long time and have succeeded a couple of times but mostly haven't... I'm okay with that, though - to each their own, especially when it comes to music.

I'm about a quarter Finnish - my first Värttinä CD was actually a gift for my Finnish grandmother, but we ended up taking it home because it wouldn't play on her stereo and I completely fell in love with it - but I don't understand the language or anything either, and I'm not really in touch with my Finnish heritage, so I'm basically in your same boat.

I think it would be amazing if they became more well-known here! I also love their vocals and just how danceable a lot of their songs are. They do both upbeat songs and slower melodies so well. (Liigua, by the way, is a gorgeous song - good choice!)
