Strange Video: Familjen - “Det Snurrar I Min Skalle”
This video is highly unusual. The footage comes from unknown (at least to me) film footage from the 1960’s (possibly) of a charismatic healing service most likely from somewhere in Europe. It’s spliced together in such a way to make it appear that the preacher is actually singing the lyrics of the song while members of the congregation are reacting to the rhythms within the song itself. The techno music used is from the Swedish band Familjen and frankly it’s quite catchy. The creative editing of the film footage makes it highly interesting. The title of the song and video is “Det Snurrar I Min Skalle” (loosely translated means “It’s Spinning Inside My Head”). Normally I’m not a big fan of techno, but this song is pretty doggoned good even though I have no clue as to what the lyrics translate into English.

How did Denver cheat? Ask the Ref’s

In Fairness to Fred Thompson…
Stating the GOP race is more competitive now seems an obvious conclusion and more plausible than the flawed theory proposed by WaPo or vaguely disclosed sources.

Lyrics!
I made you a fire
and now the whole forest is burning
Now I know what you are going to say
and it feels like the first time
Come, we’ll show them who we are
But they already knew
Outside, you are running away with me
You can hear them sing
Like everything already was meant to be
like the earth is spinning around the sun
Who could be able to take my place
He does not exist
They are talking about something wonderful
I am there, I can tell you
Big, bigger than I ever thought
My head is spinning

Her er så teksten på svensk, nyd den!= Here is the lyrics in swedish, enjoy;)
Jag
gjorde upp en eld för dig
och nu brinner hela skogen
Nu
Vet jag vad du kommer att säg
och det känns som första gången
Kom
Vi visar dom att det är vi
men det visste alla redan
Ut
springer du iväg med mig
jag hörde hur dom sjunger
- Break -
Som
att allting redan var bestämt
som att jorden går runt solen
Vem
hade kunnat ta min plats
han finns ju bara inte
Dom
pratar om något underbart
jag är där och kan berätta
Stort
större än jag någonsin trott
det snurrar i min skalle
Jag
gjorde upp en eld för dig
och nu brinner hela skogen
Nu
Vet jag vad du kommer o säg
och det känns som första gången
Kom
Vi visar dom att det är vi
men det visste alla redan
Ut
springer du iväg med mig
jag hörde hur dom sjunger
jag hörde hur dom sjunger
jag hörde hur dom sjunger
hörde hur dom sjunger
hörde hur dom sjunger
hörde hur dom sjunger
hörde hur dom sjunger
hörde hur dom sjunger
hörde hur dom sjunger
hörde hur dom sjunger
