This is one of my favourite songs in this concert, the style is like the Chinese ballad. Just bring you guitar and you can sing. I’ve found it was in Jojje Wadenius’s album Goda’, goda’ it’s a really beautiful song.

Only A2 sings the melody and is accompanied by “do do”, so smart! Still, the meaning of this song needs to be explored

Please enjoy…

Here’s the 3rd song in this concert.

vatten means water in English, and drag means stream. I can’t understand much about the lyrics, something like fish boat, water and something. Sorry for that.

All 4 singers are Tenors, there’s a girl if you can tell. Her voice is too low, so it’s better and easier for her to sing Tenor. This is first time I’ve heard about that, at least before I came to Sweden. Everyone knows girls should dress beautifully but she can’t, she has to dress as the men’s do. Anyway, we just love it, no need to care about that.

It might be so anoying of the ‘numa numa’ thing, but it’s the style of humor, it works just fine with the melody and lyrics. So it deserves the audiances’ applause.

Please enjoy…

From now on I’ll upload records of Chalmers Chamber Choir 2008 spring consert
Chalmers Chamber Choir 2008 spring consert. This concert is themed on “Let’s sail on the sea!
“,all the songs are about the sea, pirates, love and so on.

The concert started from “Hoist the Colors” which was from the movie “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End”. That little boy started the song at the beginning of the movie. Come back to our choir version, the first base and soprano have the melody. The song starts from the first base’s solo, and then the second base and tenor came in, and then came soprano and alto, finally vanished by the solo of the first base.

Lyrics:
Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho,
thieves and beggars,
never shall we die.

The king and his men
stole the queen from her bed
and bound her in her Bones.
The seas be ours
and by the powers
where we will we’ll roam.

Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never say we die.

Some men have died
and some are alive
and others sail on the sea
with the keys to the cage…
and the Devil to pay
we lay to Fiddler’s Green!

The bell has been raised
from it’s watery grave…
Do you hear it’s sepulchral tone?
We are a call to all,
pay head the squall
and turn your sail toward home!

Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the colors high.
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never say we die.
