I couldn't decide if we needed a thread about every kind of geographical entity, but we seem to have songs about mountains and rivers, and oceans etc, so since I truly love the beautiful deep Nordic Fjords, are there any songs about them - tunes & English translations too if applicable.

Well, in addition to songs about Fjords, we could also consider songs about Hursts and Grabens, Kames and Kettles, and other delightful geomorhological features. I always thought there should be a song about Gracial Drift for example. Or back when I was taking my structural geology course a song about Cleavage and Bedding Relationships. Millions could be made!

However, you can lead a Hurst to the Fjord but can you grow moss on its back?

Cheerily,

Apparently "Hurst" is a less common spelling for this geologic feature than "Horst." My apologies to any who were confounded.

I never get bjored
when I'm cruising down the fjord
the pleasures are legion
when you're Norwegian
and the ice is so nice
that you'll be awed

There's strange things done in the midnight sun whilst looking at the fjiord
But someone out for a bit of fun can easily get bored
Arne and Oystein Tokvan had nothing more to do
So they made a call to the local mall and brought home the Strippers Two.

Arne he was 80 and Oystein 73
But they rose to the occasion when the stripper flashed her knee
And as each girl moved slowly and removed her bra and pants
The brothers reached a climax not seen since the River Dance.

The girls then most politely asked to use the powder room
And the brothers in their innocence did not foresee their doom
The girls took all the money that the brothers has ammassed
The brothers said "Thats our first time and certainly our last"

And now they're back to watching the ice melting in the sun
But you still can see that smile of glee when they think of their night of fun.
