EXCELLENT TUNE!! Nunavut must have a cool AM Radio station! RP introudced me to them, and now they are on "My Favorites" list. That is why we come here. Thanx RP!
RP does it again! This doesn't play on AM radio (except in Nunavut). I've never been sorry about supporting RP. Go team!

Hey RP. Stop exposing us to new music from other cultures that we wouldn't otherwise come into contact with. It's very destabilizing for those of us who thought our teenage/college record collections were the very center of the musical universe
haha !

This comment is genuinely funny and yet it currently has three thumbs-up and six thumbs-down votes. There is no denigration here of any people, culture, etc. It's simply having fun with the attempt to render in a western alphabet a spoken language not at all like western languages. Not a good match. Were the Jerry Cans offended or something? I doubt it. I don't get people.
Somebody fell asleep on the keyboard while typing the lyrics?

today, this followed a cover of the TH song "This Must Be The Place" and then I read this wikipedia entry. Clever move Bill
The line “sing into my mouth” in the Talking Heads song “This Must Be the Place (Naïve Melody)” was inspired by a photograph of two Inuit women performing this practice.

Thank You for the translation! GREAT TUNE!!
Here's a translation of the lyrics from Lryics Translate
When you find yourself travelling in the Arctic
While the wind blows,
Remind them of me,
Remind them I used to love them.
If you travel through a blizzard
During the time when the river freezes,
In the early fall,
Make sure to dress warm,
Make sure they are warm.
I used to love them.
I used to love them.
I used to love them.
I used to love them.

Great track. Great band.
I'll have Nunavut! Interesting as heck.

...Wiki it:
Eskimo (/ˈɛskɪmoʊ/ ESS-kih-moh) or Eskimos are the indigenous circumpolar peoples who have traditionally inhabited the northern circumpolar region from eastern Siberia (Russia) to Alaska (United States), Northern Canada, Nunavik, Nunatsiavut, and Greenland.
Although the name "Eskimo" was commonly used in Alaska to refer to Inuit and Yupik people of the world, this usage is now considered unacceptable by many or even most Alaska Natives, largely since it is a colonial name imposed by non-Indigenous people. Alaska Natives increasingly prefer to be known by the names they use in their own languages, such as Inupiaq or Yupik. "Inuit" is now the current term in Alaska and across the Arctic, and "Eskimo" is fading from use.
It's what they desire to be called. How hard is it to honor that? We can choose enlightenment, respect and decency without getting irritated that someone offered us insight.... but you be you mj baummann.

Yes, it's Anglo-centric, but so what. English lyrics rendered in Inuit symbology would likely appear as if somebody fell asleep on their keyboard. That's all there is to this humor -- no malicious intent. Lighten up, my friends.
Sort of agree but it'd be more apropos for the Anglo-centric to be picking on Welsh, though. Grygchchcryrch! ;-)

my only "objection" to this song is that it's so beautiful and uplifting, I want to sing along, and I simply cannot. I mean, I can do "whoa oh oh oh oh", but, really that's about it.
I particularly enjoy and respect the display of throat singing featured here. It is glorious to live in a time when we can learn a little more about other peoples arts and culture. Just a little, of course, but perhaps that's going to be a gateway to more exchange of ideas. One can only hope.

There aren't many stations would play Inuit music, other than in Iniut lands, natch. Viva RP!
I love it when this makes it into the rotation.
We love to hear music from different cultures. Awesome choice.

Indie-rock Inuit music. This is one of my favorite tracks I've ever found through RP. Thank you, newbolddrive and Bill!
Is this the second time this song has been played in two days? In my view, that is not often enough.
I usually listen between 7AM and noon. And sometimes after 7PM. This might be useful info for when to NOT program this song for airplay. I love RP. I don't love Ukiug.
I'm having hard time to define my feeling about this song. Some parts of it are a strong 1 rating while the rest is a neat 10. And while i pushed very hard the 1 button by listening to the first 2 minutes, after hearing the whole thing, i removed my 1. But I have no idea where to put my score now i want to hit 1 and 10 at the same time. 
I always increase the volume on this one

All I hear is the bass line from "Bella Lugosi's Dead"
Beyond that, this is not so good.

Thank you Bill!!! As a Manitoban huge respect and thanks for playing these guys. They are so good and could use any exposure they can get.
So glad this is in rotation! And then to somehow segue seamlessly to Tears for Fears. RP is a treasure. Time to ante up my donation and get back on the proper side of BillG's ledger.

Also check out "Fall Away" by an older 70's Inuit band, Sugluk.

Wow, nice to hear some Canadian Indigenous content on RP! I'm from Halifax, NS where this group's violinist is from, and in fact I'm familiar with the other band she's part of, Gypsophilia (another group to look into, Bill?)
I was initially surprised to hear the throat singing at the beginning of the song, which prompted me to look at the Wikipedia info :)

The left-right throat singing near the end has a wild effect wearing the old ear-buds...
Okay, wow.
Mumford & Sons in a different tongue

That it appears so is in big part because they're hindered by having to transliterate into English. If they were written in the actual Inuktitut language you could see the beauty of their syllables. They have an art in their form that's totally lost when crushed into latin alphabet.
