Need to Complain About Something? Put It in Song.
Finland is a strange place. Because Finns spend so much of the year in the dark, they find other pursuits. For example, they like to tango. They’re deep into cell phones. And they used to kill themselves a lot (but not so much anymore.)
Finland is also home to the Helsinki Complaints Choir, a group of singers who turn daily grievances into song. This has become a worldwide phenomenon with similar choirs showing up in Canada, the US, Singapore, Germany, Russia, Australia, Korea, Japan and a dozen other countries?
Why? Well, why not?
