The Abba no one knows




Ted featuring ABBA on backup vocals. Björn and Benny also produced the album.
"Hela världen runt" ("All around the world") from his debut album Undringar (1972).
A rough translation below.
Människor är allt bra lika
åh hela världen runt
De behöver samma sak
åh hela världen runt

Fattiga eller rika
åh hela världen runt
Vill få plats under samma tak
åh hela världen runt

Någon gång ska undret ske
Någon gång så lyckas det
Någon gång ska alla le
Åh hela världen runt

Alla vill vara fria
åh hela världen runt
Alla vill va en frihetstolk
åh hela världen runt

Men ingen kan riktigt sia
åh hela världen runt
När vi blir ett enat folk
åh hela världen runt

Någon gång ska undret ske
Någon gång så lyckas det
Någon gång ska alla le
Åh hela världen runt

Människor är allt bra lika
åh hela världen runt
De behöver samma sak
åh hela världen runt

Fattiga eller rika
åh hela världen runt
Vill få plats under samma tak
åh hela världen runt
**************************
People are very much the same
Oh all around the world
Everyone need the same things
Oh all around the world

Poor or rich ones
Oh all around the world
Wants to be under the same roof
Oh all around the world

One day the wonder will happen
One day it will succeed
One day we'll all smile
Oh all around the world

Everyone wants to be free
Oh all around the world
Everybody wants to be a freedom interp
Oh all around the world
But no one can really tell
Oh all around the world
When we will be one people
Oh all around the world

One day the wonder will happen
One day it will succeed
One day we'll all smile
Oh all around the world

People are very much the same
Oh all around the world
Everybody need the same things
Oh all around the world

Poor or rich ones
Oh all around the world
Wants to be under the same roof
Oh all around the world






Agnetha & Ted




Not sung by ABBA, but a good Swedish lesson.

Family Tree

The origin of the name Camery is unknown. It may of come from the town variously known as Cambray, Camaracum or Camaraco or it may have referred to the position of treasurer. Kammerer means chamber in German. Camery sounds like Latin. Cymry is Welsh. Camry is the Toyota car. Camery appears in England beginning from the era of the Norman conquest.





JOHANN LUDWIG KAMERER ("LUDWIG") was born ca 1718 in or near Worms, Germany on the west bank of the Rhine River. Ludwig was in a flood of miserable humanity that washed across the Atlantic from Germany to the British colonies a half century before the Revolutionary War. Leaving starvation and poverty behind, the Palantines fled across the ocean searching for a land of peace and prosperity --Penn's Colony. (Strassburger and Hinke estimated that more than 65,000 Germans landed at Philadelphia between 1726-1776.

Ludwig Kammerer stepped off the Ship Harle in Philadelphia September 1, 1736. Although, he left no personal record of his sojourn across the ocean , we have early historian's accounts telling us the trip took six months. First there was the boat trip down the Rhine River during which time the emigrants met long delays at up to 26 custom houses, depleting their minimum rations and money. Then there was another five -to-six week wait at Rotterdam. In 1750 one historian, Gottlieb Mittleberg, wrote that the "poor people" had to spend nearly all they had before they began the second stage of the journey from Rotterdam to an English port, usually Cowes on the Isle of Wight., where they faced another delay before the ship weighed anchor.

Ludwig landed from the ship Harle of London--Ralph Harle, master--September 1, 1736 after coming from Rotterdam, via Cowes. After arrival, Ludwig accompanied by other aliens went to the Philadelphia Courthouse and took two oaths--an Oath of Allegiance to the King and an Oath of Abjuration aimed against Catholicism. (It is interesting to note here that three lists made the same day identify him variously as J. Ludwig Kammerer, Ludwig Cammerer and Johann Ludwig Cammerer.--Also , the captain's list shows Ludwig age as 21. We can surmise that the young German lad fibbed about his age. His tombstone says he was born in 1718.Sometime between 1736 and 1742 Ludwig made the journey from Pennsylvania to Maryland most likely by way of Lancaster and Harrisburg and "The Great Road" up the Cumberland Valley, through Shippensburg into Monacacy and the Conococheague in the wesern Maryland wilderness.

Within seven years after arriving in the City of Brotherly Love, Ludwig had taken up residence in Maryland's Conococheague district about 30 miles NW of Monacacy across the Catoctin and Blue Ridge Mountains where he apparently squatted on a 4000-acre tract warranted by Lord Baltimore's land office to one Daniel Dulaney. A survey shows Ludwig (Ludowick Camera) had a log cabin and 5 or 6 cultivated acres. Dulaney later deeded 100 acres known as Buck Spring to Ludwig. Here on the disputed Pennsylvania-Maryland Border, about 10 miles North of Hagerstown Ludwig raised a family 0f thirteen. It was here in 1774 that Ludwig, no doubt with the help of his sons, built a stone fortress home which is still standing .

By this time, Ludwig's grown family began to grow restless . sons John, Adam and Ludwig Jr along with two of their brothersinlaw--Dr. David Marchand and John Yost Kohrt (Cort) pushed across the Alleghenies to the newly formed Westmoreland County.

The Kammerer brothers may have squatted on government land when they first arrived . The state granted John and Ludwig, Jr a patent on 1425 acres of land in 1786. John, Ludwig and Adam were all on the 1786 tax list.

och när mörkret sakta faller min röst du hör
...

Girls' Day Celebration in Hawaii on 3-Mar-2010

Hina Matsuri

Hina Matsuri is the annual Girls' Day Festival celebrated on March 3 by Japanese and Okinawan families in Hawai'i. Girls display their collections of elaborate dolls portraying the Japanese royal court, arranged on up to 7 tiers. The Emperor and Empress (or Lord and Lady) sit at the top and are attended by guardians, musicians and servants. These treasured dolls are passed down from generation to generation and are beautifully detailed, with brocaded silk kimonos, fans, and musical instruments. It is said that the display must be taken down on March 3rd or the girls in the family will not find husbands.

Hina Matsuri evolved from ancient Shinto purification ceremonies. Using origami dolls, girls could rid themselves of impurities by breathing upon the paper dolls, rubbing the dolls against their bodies, then casting away the dolls, and thus their sins, into a river.

Birthdays on Girls' Day, Videos,Etc.

This entry is just for me alone and my crazy sense of humor.

I wouldn't dare say "Happy Birthday, Mathilda!", but people in this video do: ♥♥♥

A Cool Blue Necklace. It looks familiar. Does every Mathilda get one?

Funny Birthday Song??? I don't know enough Swedish to be sure what it is.

Ja må hon leva

The Absolute Worst Video. Bad Sound, bad everything, enjoy.

Same song with sound and video fixed.

Love Never Dies

Katherine Jenkins recorded the title song to Andrew Lloyd Webber’s highly anticipated production, 'Phantom of the Opera 2: Love Never Dies' on the new edition of her album out next month.

Birthdays and more birthdays

Linn - A Song From the Heart


Linn En sång från hjärtat = Linn - A Song From the Heart

När nånting händer och det känns så kallt = When something happens and it feels so cold
Det ända man ser är mörkrets fall = The only thing one sees is darkness falling
Jag försöker se upp till himmelen nu = I'm trying to look up to heaven now
Men jag kan inte se dig något mer = But I can not see you any more
Och ingen kan nånsin ta din plats i mitt liv = And no one can ever take your place in my life
Och vad ska jag göra utan dig = And what shall I do without you

Jag gråter ofta = I often cry
Och vad ska jag göra utan dig = And what shall I do without you
Alla minnen när du såg i mina ögon = All the memories when you looked in my eyes
Och ingenting får dig tillbaka nu = And nothing gets you back now

När allting var som svårast för dig = When everything was as difficult for you
Så sa du adjö och lämna oss kvar = So did you say goodbye and leave us still
Mina tårar faller för min saknad är så stark = My tears fall because my longing is so strong
Så mycket tid du hade men nu är det över = How much time you had but now it's over

Ännu ser jag dina tårar = Yet, I see your tears
Ännu hör jag din röst = Yet, I hear your voice
Jag kommer ihåg ditt leende = I remember your smile
Jag kommer aldrig lämna dig = I will never leave you

Jag gråter ofta = I often cry
Och vad ska jag göra utan dig = And what shall I do without you
Alla minnen när du såg i mina ögon = All the memories when you looked in my eyes
Och ingen kan får dig tillbaka nu = And no one can get you back now

Nej, inget kan få dig tillbaka nu = No, nothing can get you back now



Warning: This translation is by me and I don't speak Swedish. It is just to help me learn. Any comments are appreciated. By the way, I really like the song. Linn Eriksson is a young girl living in Falun with her sisters and parents. I read somewhere the song is about a friend who committed suicide.
