Hey could you help me track down this probably Norwegian folk like song? Most likely its a oneoff song by some band but many on that thread have been keft hanging for years...

Hi, sorry, I've really tried to track it down, but I don't recognise neither the melody nor the lyrics. I see that it is called "Draken flyger" by Henrik Wallgren in the end. He is Swedish I think, but the lyrics are probably written closer to Norse

Thanks!! i have tried chasing that lead.. (found only childrens songs on youtube so I thought it might be based on a childrens song.. your posts above those were awesome but guess not the same style haha)

Also there was a deckhand on that ship called Henrik Wallgren[0], guess it could be the same person wonder how likely you think that is..
