Here is a neat piece of history: During the Continuation War, when Finland re-captured Vyburg from the Soviets in August 1941, the red army placed mines all over the city. These mines were designed to set off when a particular set of three notes were played via radio by the soviets. The finns found some of these mines and managed reverse-engineer their design. Their solution to counter the mines was to bring a radio broadcast truck to Vyborg. This truck would play non-stop Säkkijärven Polkka on the radio waves for three straight days to scramble the soviet radio signal, while a frantic search for the mines was conducted. This song probably saved quite a lot of lives.
I just imagine a lone Finnish tank crew and their tank, driving along a dusty road in the middle of a Finnish forest, and this song plays as the crew continues down the endless road and the sun begins to set.
*you're driving through the wilderness during the winter, it's dusk, and the last few shades of orange and red peek over the horizon. That's ok, you planned for this, besides, you've got a long, lonely drive ahead of you.*
On kauniina muistona Karjalan maa, Mutta vieläkin syömmestä soinnahtaa, Kun soittajan sormista kuulla saa, Säkkijärven polkkaa! Se polkka taas menneitä mieleen tuo Ja se outoa kaipuuta rintaan luo. Hei, soittaja, haitarin soida suo Säkkijärven polkkaa! Nuoren ja vanhan se tanssiin vie, Ei sille polkalle vertaa lie! Sen kanssa on vaikka mierontie Säkkijärven polkkaa! Siinä on liplatus laineitten, Siinд on huojunta honkien. Karjala soi - kaikki tietää sen - Säkkijärven polkkaa! Tule, tule tyttö, nyt kanssani tanssiin, Kun polkka niin herkästi helkähtää. Hoi! Hepo surkoon ja hammasta purkoon, Kun sillä on ihmeesti suurempi pää! Tule, tule, tyttö, nyt kanssani tanssiin Kun meillä on riemu ja suvinen sää! Säkkijärvi se meiltä on pois, Mutta jäi toki sentään polkka! Kun rakkaimmat rannat on jääneet taa, Niin vieraissa kulkija lohdun saa, kun Kuuntelee soittoa kaihoisaa: Säkkijärven polkkaa! Se polkka on vain, mutta sellainen, Että tielle se johtavi muistojen. On sointuna Karjalan kaunoisen: Säkkijärven polkka! Nuoren ja vanhan se tanssiin vie, Ei sille polkalle vertaa lie! Sen kanssa on vaikka mierontie Säkkijärven polkkaa! Siinä on liplatus laineitten, Siinд on huojunta honkien. Karjala soi - kaikki tietää sen - Säkkijärven polkkaa!

On sointuna Karjalan kaunoisen: Säkkijärven polkka!
I imagine a tank, alone, in the cold north, in the 1939, some miles away from the Finnish-Karelian border, where it's driving to, between plains and woods, and a person in the tank who's looking outside and remembering his youth, in Karelia, in his village, where he danced with his girlfriend at the sound of Säkkijärven Polkka.
there was one thing red army soldiers and the red army high command feared the most about the finnish army that was their relentless fighting spirit during the winter war and continuation of war
Y’know, I really like this, because it’s like the music box remix, but the thing is, it’s more my style 10/10, would listen to while driving through northern caovia.
I like this a lot, personally i think it would sound better if the wind was there at the start but slowly died down so you can better appreciate the music but it is really good.
"how to trigger russian ptsd" jokes aside, sadly alot of the soldiers in the winter war were drafted from the ukraiine area. but still, they were soviets.
Its a Finnish Radio broadcast from Karelia during ww2 detailing the bombardment of the city of Leningrad. You can find the original here: th-cam.com/video/U2F-OxFFrso/w-d-xo.html

Cool! I wonder what those three notes were...?

replace 'dusty' with 'snowy'

Best Description for this song except instead of dusty it should be snowy like the guy above the guy above me said

I love this remix especially the wind in the background
Makes me think of some video game soundtracks. Would be pogger to see a Finnish inspired game with music like this.

You know where this instrumental is from right?
This doesn’t get enough recognition. For real tho great job!
this remix Sakkijarven Polkka is criminally underrated. Deserves way more views!
Yk, winter after Christmas tends to sound depressing, but when this plays, it's a banger
On kauniina muistona Karjalan maa,
Mutta vieläkin syömmestä soinnahtaa,
Kun soittajan sormista kuulla saa,
Säkkijärven polkkaa!
Se polkka taas menneitä mieleen tuo
Ja se outoa kaipuuta rintaan luo.
Hei, soittaja, haitarin soida suo
Säkkijärven polkkaa!
Nuoren ja vanhan se tanssiin vie,
Ei sille polkalle vertaa lie!
Sen kanssa on vaikka mierontie
Säkkijärven polkkaa!
Siinä on liplatus laineitten,
Siinд on huojunta honkien.
Karjala soi - kaikki tietää sen -
Säkkijärven polkkaa!
Tule, tule tyttö, nyt kanssani tanssiin,
Kun polkka niin herkästi helkähtää.
Hoi! Hepo surkoon ja hammasta purkoon,
Kun sillä on ihmeesti suurempi pää!
Tule, tule, tyttö, nyt kanssani tanssiin
Kun meillä on riemu ja suvinen sää!
Säkkijärvi se meiltä on pois,
Mutta jäi toki sentään polkka!
Kun rakkaimmat rannat on jääneet taa,
Niin vieraissa kulkija lohdun saa, kun
Kuuntelee soittoa kaihoisaa:
Säkkijärven polkkaa!
Se polkka on vain, mutta sellainen,
Että tielle se johtavi muistojen.
