sininen ja valkoinen is such a diaspora song
i mean obv it's pretty much specific to finnish diaspora but if you look at what it's saying it's a very diaspora sentiment
very much a "motherland is far away and i can't return; what do i do to remember it" kind of thing
this is all rather baffling to me because the dude who wrote the song has nothing preventing him from returning to finland and in fact spends time there every year. and then it captures the emotion of generations who never will
