Amerikanen Reacts To Svenska Klassiker: Ebba Grön - 800 Grader

[@marielles7953]

A+ for the swedish pronunciation even if you live in Bandhagen, a lot of Americans struggle to get the correct swedish accent.

[@ElMakz]

It's not difficult if u practice.

[@Terrible_fate]

Damn your Swedish pronunciation is actually really good, I'm impressed. Of course there's an accent, which is to be expected, but you sound just like an American who's moved to Sweden and learned the Swedish language (at least from my perspective and interactions with Americans who's moved to Sweden)

[@hannisen1]

You should listen to Ebba Gröns die Mauer. That’s a real Swedish classic and very different from staten och kapitalet and 800 grader.

[@TheSixtoo]

Ye, Die mauer is a classic. its about the Berlin wall. You should react to it!

Poor child, but soon it'll be warm. It will be 800 *C, 800 *C you can trust in me, you can trust in me - 800 degrees, you can trust in me, you can trust in me" (Chorus) "Humans with empty staring eyes, you gave, but you got nothing." Chorus again. "Armageddon gives us the chills, not so strange when we only see fools." Chorus again. "Sometimes I feel nothing at all, even as they're cutting me off at the throat, just so damn empty, as I wait for my own doom." Chorus again, repeated over and over until it pewters out.

[@klaskristian1]

I came up with another great swedish classic "Ett glas öl" with Hasse Alfredsson. Its about the generations of children growing up with elemental destructions and so on. Its written in the sixthies. Great song! "När man ser på hur barna växer upp och står i, kan man undra om barna nånsin får det som vi?" Great lyric!

[@Cookie_moonlove]

The singer in Ebba Grön, Thåström released a song in 2005 called Fanfanfan that is simple but beautiful and I think you'll like. Thåström - Fanfanfan kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4aYXoKFj5aWjNU It's from his solo album Skebokvarnsv. 209, "Fanfanfan", the record's fourth track, became Thåström's first number one single. The album topped the chart in Sweden, and won a Grammis in the category "Year's rock album (solo)". In June 2013, Sonic Magazine rated it as the 50th best Swedish album ever. And:Oh nooo not Hey Monica. I mean yes you prob should but you will forever have it stuck in your head. I don't remember it being good but it was definently played over and over and over and over again on the radio and everywhere impossible to escape and super repedative if I remember correctly. PTSD. ;)

I grew up listening to Ebba Grön, Imperiet, Thåström. My dad saw Thåström and friends live alot since he grew up in Solberga and it wasn't far to get to Rågsved/Högdalen where they came from. I live on Skebokvarnsvägen in Högdalen now and my dad has passed away.. I still listen to Thåström (and his various projects). Someone already said that you should check out Stefan Sundström aswell.. From Farsta and a great musician aswell.

I sang this at a karaoke in a disco once, they turned the volume down, I sounded really terrible. Before I went up on the stage I told my friends that this will be the first and the last time I ever do karaoke (we also did "Vill ha dig" but that was together.

[@fylgia8567]

800 grader was one of Ebba Gröns most famous songs. Ebba Grön is one of Swedens most famous bands of all times. It is a very swedish band, from how Sweden was then. These guys came from a working class area in Stockholms suburbs. Those areas were much calmer during the 70s and 80s compared to today but they had the ugliest architecture often, that kind that lacks all soul . Anyhow, the next band Thåström, the singer was a part of was Imperiet (The empire) , also very famous. Thåström became every black dressed swedish girls dream during the 80s and 90s.

800 degrees is the low end temperature when a house fire is almost impossible to extinguish.

Also the supposed temperature of the fire storms after a nuclear blast, as per the documentary "The War Game"/"Krigsspelet" from 1966 which the band was inspired by. But, yeah, that pretty much lines up since it's the burning houses that are fueling the fire storm.

This was all sorts of fun. Cool to hear your take on it. It's sort of always been around for me, so I can't really hear it fresh anymore. Anyway, staying söder om söder, if you haven't heard it you could try "Alla ska i jorden" with Farsta's Keith Richards, Stefan Sundström... Would really be interesting to hear what you think. Fair warning, though... There's darkness in that one too. Or perhaps melancholy, is the word. Or just plain morbidity. :) Also, in all fairness, I will give Juvenile a listen.

Best ever of Joakim Thåström (the singer in Ebba Grön): - Karenina - Fanfanfan - Keops pyramid (cover, the original band is Hoola Bandoola Band) - Die mauer - Alla vill till himlen And most of all the rest of his songs. By the way, the song 'Staten och kapitalet' is also a cover (original band is Blå tåget). Edit: Oh my, Of course Keops pyramid is is a Hoola Bandoola Band song (I knew that and my intetion was to write that but something came up and interrupted me and when I came back, everything I wrote went wrong). I was convinced though that Staten och kapitalet was a song by Nationalteatern but that is wrong (the correct band is Blå tåget). I feel a bit embarrassed right now.
