I am glad to hear that. Diagnostics is a demanding discipline.

Aw, really, George?

OK, I'm doing it now:
'You're finally getting it, Torsten'.
Phew. That felt nice.

It´s a nice song. The Norwegians make nice music.

fwiida
It's Swedish.

swirlcrop
I think that you don´t know what you´re talking about. This is
Norwegian.

zillertaller
search on cecilia vennersten...shes swedish...she has done "kapten nemo" aswell..very good!

swirlcrop (6 months ago)
Don´t be offended zillertaller that she´s Norwegian. There are many good Swedish songs too.

zillertaller
funny...very funny!

swirlcrop
I told you Sweden made good music too. Share the video I sent you with
your friend. Take care ziller... I´m going to enjoy the rest of this beautiful Norwegian song.

fwiida (6 months ago)
I think I would know what I'm talking about, as I AM Norwegian, and recognize my own language when I see it, or in this case, hear it. And trust me, this is Swedish.

swirlcrop
I´m glad that you FWIIDA can understand this beautiful song since you´re Norwegian. It´s so sad though when you can´t admit you´re wrong.

fwiida
I never admit being wrong unless I actually am wrong, and this really is Swedish. Also, you're not really funny.

swirlcrop
You should take language lessons and be a little more humble. This is
Norwegian.

fwiida
I believe you just got pwned. Sweeeeedish.

swirlcrop
You´re all wrong. But that´s OK because we all agree it´s a beautiful
(Norwegian) song.
