December means that the jul-vibes are copious in many countries! Sweden is no exception. When strolling through town, yous'll run across lights, decorations, and hear sweet Christmas tunes pumped out of speakers to get folks in the holiday mood. Because it's the first Tuesday of the month, that means that this weblog postal service is going to exist about music. So, what better focus for the Swedish language web log in Dec than julmusik ?

Psssst, in that location is a YouTube link to each song in this blog mail service! Please annotation that virtually of these songs are classics, so the artist who I characteristic isn't necessarily the original artist.

Much like in the U.South., Swedes have a few archetype Christmas songs that just nigh everyone knows and loves…until you can't go them out of your head!  Beneath are some Swedish translations of more solemn Christmas classics that you'll probably recognize:

" O Helga Natt " "O Holy Night"
-Tommy Körberg

" Stilla natt " "Silent Night"
-Sanna Nielsen

" Hallelujah " Same championship in English
-E.M.D.

Okej , permit's motion on to some Swedish originals.  Beneath are several modern and classic hits that you hear on echo during jul season.

" Hej paw vinterland" "Hello, My Winterland"
-Carola

" Nu tändas tusen juleljus" "Now a thousand Christmas candles are lit"
-Helen Sjöholm, Benny Andersson

" Gläns över sjö och strand " is an estimation from the 1891 poem past Viktor Rydberg, roughly translated to "Shining over seas and shores" performed here by Sofia Källgren.

"Jul, jul, strålande jul"                 "Christmas, Christmas, luminous Christmas"
-Peter Jobäck

"Mer jul" is a vocal first released in 1982, performed past Adolphson & Falk. The chorus is super tricky and pretty like shooting fish in a barrel to learn:

"Jag vill ha mer jul                        "I want more Christmas
Ge mig mer jul                                Requite me more Christmas
Jag vill ha mer jul                           I want more than Christmas
Ge mig mer jull                               Give me more Christmas
Tusen stjärnor som tindrar          Thousands of stars twinkling
Glitter så långt jag ser                   Glitter as far as I can encounter
Av juleljus som glimmar               Of Christmas lights that shine
Vill jag ha mer"                               I want more "

There is always room for the quirky Christmas songs, speaking to the mischievous side of jul :

"Vår julskinka har rymt "  past Werner and Werner is "Our Christmas ham has escaped" in English.

" Hej tomtegubbar" loosely translates to "Hello tomte-men" and is a c lassic children's song, while at the aforementioned time a pop drinking song!

"Nu är det jul igen," "Now it is Christmas Once again" is best sung in a grouping while belongings easily and singing together, spinning in a circle and singing faster and faster! This clip is from Ingmar Bergman'south film Fanny and Alexander.
