THEY HAVE BIKINI GIRLS IN FINLAND?

I don’t really like “Hei Hei Heinäkuu,” the Mokoma song that is the basis for the below video. Fuck, until just now, I’d never heard of Mokoma, and I have no desire to do any research on them.

But usually, when we see a video by a Finnish metal band, it’s a bunch of dudes dressed like pagans or sorcerors or whatever running around the woods, doing everything in their power to make sure that they never get laid. Whereas “Hei Hei Heinäkuu” is like a hair metal T n’ A video, except with a sense of humor about its homoeroticism. So, still, no one gets laid, but at least that’s part of the charm of the thing, such as it were. And if nothing else… GIRLS IN BIKINIS! WHOO-HOO!

(What can I say? I’m easy to please.)

    From the 2:35 point and on this is hilarious. These guys have a good sense of humor.

    Great vid. Reminds me of the old glam days, with a few exceptions:
    – Mokoma’s music doesn’t completely suck
    - the women are prettier than the men
    - the only tight pants during the video were mine

      “The Only Tight Pants Were Mine” should appear on the site’s banner.

    I lived overseas in my youth. I won’t say where; it wasn’t Finland, but there were a few Finnish girls in my class. I can confirm that Finnish girls are some of the hottest women on the planet. Forget Sweden, or any of the former Soviet states. Finland is where it’s at.

    Finland.

      In that case you must be blind. Or you happened to meet the only hot women in Finland.
      Because i bet that these women in the video were imported from Sweden.

    An inspired video, but it goes down much easier with the sound off.

    just got a translation from a pal in Helsinki – apparently during the musical break, the dread-head says, “Here’s the thing ladies. We’ve booked this volleyball court, so I need you to shimmy those little legs on outta here…”
