Question: Do you can tell the backstory urhhh Huhhahhei?
Käärijä: Yea, it’s uhhh. Maybe that thing happened for me, but that’s the storyline. Uhhh. Käärijä goes to… go to boat, and there’s the one… (points finger in air) Lady? Who… mmmh… Thinking… thinking ahhh.. she want to take Käärijä, the Käärijä… is the man who just you know… sit at home, he’s scared (of) you know? Errr, party things? And then they go to… urhhh… dance floor and uhhh. Lady is ummm. Talk dirty things (points at ear) to Käärijä and Käärijä uhm. Käärijä little bit scary but then they go to uhhh boat and there is no one room~?! And uh then there happen uh, something good things! And uh after when everything (clap clap clap) happen! Käärijä thinks maybe she’s not there anymore there when Käärijä wake up. That’s the story, good story. (Thumbs up) Yes yes! Beautiful story.
One of ny favourite things about seeing Käärijä live was the opportunity to observe his microexpressions. He has a very expressive face and it is constantly changing. You can't really catch it on photos, which are still, nor on videos, because the resolution is usually not high enough. I could spend the whole gig just looking at his face.
The crisp guitar? The decision to make actual ferry sounds to a bassdrop? The absolutely bouncy 80s synth in the middle? The shouting? How his voice goes from heavy to soft? The other backing flute sounds (?) that almost sound oriental?
He has crafted no less than a perfect masterpiece. Huhhahhei my baby.
I hate hate hate how some people jump at the smallest chance to "cancel" someone for literally NOTHING and without even knowing anything about that person or what actually happened. And sending death threats to anyone at all is criminal and absolutely despicable! Jere is the least person to deserve that, he is a total sweetheart 💔😭
Just now processing the drama with the Ukrainian flag. How insane that someone sent him death threats over a clear misunderstanding? We are talking about the same dude that went through all of my instagram stories and thanked me for liking Huhhahhei in Berlin in the replies. He supported Ukraine on several occasions before why should he now have a change of mind?
