In 1928, a Finnish man named Eino Kettunen wrote a folk song about a girl who sneaks out to dance all night. Decades later in 1995, a quartet named Loituma recorded an a cappella version of the track. It was largely forgotten by the mainstream. Then in 2006, an anonymous user took a tiny vocal loop from that recording and uploaded it to a Russian blogging website. They paired the audio with a simple flash animation of the character Orihime Inoue from the anime Bleach endlessly spinning a leek. The viral explosion was so intense that it forced the disbanded folk quartet to reunite. A 1928 acoustic folk song accidentally became a massive club hit and ringtone sensation, dominating European music charts nearly eighty years after it was written.



Мне около 9-10, финская полька дико популярна Мы в школе слушаем её с телефонов и соревнуемся, кто лучше сможет пропеть - у всех дико заплетается язык на этих словах (до того, как все узнают об Эйяфьядлайёкюдле, ещё несколько лет) Я рассказываю об этом соревновании отцу =>
