This is quickly becoming one of my favourite songs ever. This is incredible!

[@Markaria]

That's a very difficult rhythm to get. 15/16. You nailed it! It's a great dance! I was dancing to it while you sang it!

[@ArnoNym1502]

A fierce approach to the raw mystic and fascination of bulgarian women's choir tradition. 🎙️🌶️

[@nanak1834]

2:34 I don't know what it is about this specific note, but it's my favorite part of the entire song. It just sparks so much joy for me, I can just listen to it on repeat `for hours

Hello 👋 there

[@miamidolphinsfan]

This is EPIC !!!

[@yvonnelusher1653]

It's wonderful, the soul is dancing in happiness💃🎶❤️

[@timreid6577]

This is just so brilliant - thank you!

[@keenanpepper]

The meter is 15, so if you want you can count it as 5x3 or 3x5, both of which are like this weird extra layer because the actual music is more like 4+4+3+4 or 4+2+2+3+2+2 or something.

[@Markaria]

Or 1-2,1-2,1-2,1-2,1-2-3,1-2,1-2 or quick quick quick quick slow quick quick or QQQQSQQ which is how Balkan dancers count it.

[@keenanpepper]

Right, I'd notate that as 2+2+2+2+3+2+2. Same as QQQQSQQ.

Good. I’m Peter from Los Angeles and hope you don’t mind being friends? I’ve been to Brazil several times, and I think the last time I visited was 3 years ago if I’m not mistaking.

[@fff5081]

As a Bulgarian I approve!

[@jonscot8393]

Sounded awesome going deeper into the past. but how come after all these years you still look so young? Have you ever done Follyfoot - song by The Settlers? it was the theme song to Follyfoot Farm TV show way back. but it screams The Swingles.

[@melodytoering9523]

just heard this on apple music and had to figure out the time signature heh, 4/4 + 7/8 (or 15/8) that's so cool when you sang this, how were you feeling it?
