As a sidenote, the lullaby the mother is humming in the first episode is "Trollmors vaggvisa" (The Trollmother's Lullaby), a very common lullaby in Sweden and Norway (I don't know about other scandinavian countries). I have memories of my mother singing this to me when I was little, making it even more haunting in the game. Here is a version of the song with lyrics in Swedish. Edit: Here and here are some other versions, since the first one was apparently blocked in the US. A rough translation, if anyone is interested: When the trollmother has laid the eleven little trolls (to bed) And tied them by the tails Then she slowly sings to the eleven little trolls The most beautiful words she knows Ho aj aj aj aj buff Ho aj aj aj aj buff Ho aj aj aj aj buff buff Ho aj aj aj aj buff (That last part is gibberish, I suppose trolls don't know a lot of beautiful words.) It's only as an adult I've come to realize how haunting that melody actually is. Covski fucked around with this message at 03:16 on Nov 8, 2014 |
