OOC: The Song
Nov. 7th, 2007 08:33 pmI found it; there is one extremely iffy and politically incredibly suspect 'neofolk' group singing in German that has recorded that song from Teja's canon; it's another melody than the one handed down in my family, but even more haunting.
Here it is, the first verse, as a sample downloaded from the web site of the publisher. The rest is no longer available anywhere, as far as I can tell, and honestly? Do I want to throw money at a band and a record company of such suspect auspices? No! I wish I could put the entire song here, to show what it might sound like -- but the one verse is enough, then.-
The link leads to box.net, not the record company - I cannot have iffy people like that discover the journal of Milli!Teja via their web site referrers. I can do without the terror visited upon me by 'neo-heathen' fanatics howling because of what I'm doing to a cardboardy character from a stuffy 19th century novel that they might actually, seriously count among their heroes.
