I have been listening Ultima Thule already for over ten years, not often though, but from time to time. Recently, I came across their performance of "Uti vår hage" and fell in love with this song. It's so brilliant I can't express it in words.

Once again, truly I see that Swedish is one of the most beautiful languages in the world, and I feel like I am missing something meaningful not knowing this language, not even trying to learn it. Sometimes, I fall in love with languages, for example with Swedish, with Dutch, and with Thai, but I don't really consider learning them, realizing that life is not long enough and I cannot afford learning and involving in everything I want. Alas! Things are divided into "beautiful" and "useful", and I have to decide what to spend my time on.
