Battleships are leaving port,
They are heading north,
Squadrons of cruisers are coming forth,
The cold Norwegian fjords await.
Trained in the Baltic sea,
They head for a destiny,
Less glorious than it was set out to be,
Ice cold Norwegian fjords await,
The water shines so crystal bright
Led by the moon this beautiful night,
When the nigh time dawns and the mist comes
The Iron Monster glides into the Northern Shores.
Lanterns are shut, but the ship is spotted,
From Rauøy fort, the alarm goes off.
A threat to our nation is in our waters,
At 04:21 the first bomb of Oscarborg is shot.
Smoke fills the ship,
As fuel and ammunition catches fire,
51 shots on the starboard side,Torpedoing the Blücher entirely.
Soldiers are burned and choked by smoke,
Thrown overboard in the fjord so cold,
A thousand German soldiers die this April 9th.
The exquadrare is turning,
As they see how their mothership is burning,
They set full retreat,
In this battle they suffer
Defeat!
The lyrics BLÜCHER of VREID is also present in the album Milorg (2008)
Vreid è un gruppo musicale norvegese di black metal formatosi nel 2004 a seguito dello scioglimento dei Windir, dopo la tragica scomparsa del cantante e fondatore Valfar (Valgeir Örnes). Il nome Vreid deriva dal termine norreno che significa "scontro", riflettendo l'energia e la potenza musicale della band. I membri superstiti dei Windir, in particolare il chitarrista Sture Drevland e il batterista Jørn H. Aase, hanno continuato a portare avanti l'eredità del gruppo con un sound che mantiene le caratteristiche distintive del black metal norvegese: atmosfere cupe, melodie malinconiche e testi ispirati alla mitologia e alla storia norrena. Tra i brani più rappresentativi di Vreid si ricordano "Sorg fra mærdomen", "Høyt over havet" e "Fylgja". L'album "I Krigens Nat" (2010) è considerato un punto di svolta nella carriera del gruppo, segnando una maggiore maturità musicale e un approccio più sperimentale. Vreid ha collaborato con artisti come Ivar Bjørnson dei Emperor e gli ha aperto concerti a band leggendarie come i Mayhem.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
