4. Ukko Nooa
(trad.) No wonder Jore always has no trouble doing his 80 minutes worth of material - the first minute of this is him trying to remember the bloody tune! Of course I know he's just buggering about and knows it all along. I presume this is a traditional Finnish song - it sounds happy enough to be a Christmas song. Lots going on here. Ukelele banjo, banjo, whistle, guitar, mandolin, harmonica. A busy day in the studio for Jore! It sounds as if there should be some silly words about a Finnish leprechaun or something. Are there words I wonder? -- Davy

I thought it was funny at the start but I don't know. Maybe it should have been shorter? I'm not sure at all this is a Finnish trad song. I thought it's a world known children's song. It has some verses but no one remembers any but the first, where Old Man Noah goes to China and buys a bottle of strong vodka. -- Jore
