Chorale signed to Scandinavian A1 Music at winter 2003. The "Scooter of Finland" released their first album in 2005 and it entered the local album charts at #15.
Chorale's first singer was Maija-Helena Meskanen (Maikku) in 2000, but she performed only one tune (Huominen). In 2001 came Hanna-Leena Saarinen (Hansku), who sang thier few next eurodance tunes. In fall 2001 a girl from Tampere offered one of her tunes for them to remix. This is how Lydia Luoma-aho (born December 1977) found her way to Chorale and Rakkauden Maa was done.
Besides Chorale, Lydia also has a solo project called La Masina.
Minne Katosit
Chorale Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Muut bileiss juhli mut me vain juteltiin
Kerroit mulle salaisuutesi
Tulevaisuuden toiveet ja haaveesi
Me sitten seurustella alettiin
Aika hyvin yhdess viihdyttiin
Voi kuinka vaikeaa on ymmrt
Minne lhdit ja mik on mrnp?
Minne katosit - aion lyt sut
Tule takaisin - sen olit luvannut
Minne katosit - Kerro mulle et
Tule takaisin - Muuta toivo en
En osaa olla en ilman sua
Harhakuvaan taisin rakastua
Kaikki oli vain unta sittenkin
Sut vierelleni haaveilin
Nyt hylttyn jatkan elm
En halua pettyy en enemp
Mut yksin tuomittu on kulkemaan
Ikuisesti sua vain kaipaamaan
[chorus]

Se oli kauan sitten kun me tavattiin
It was a while back when we met
Muut bileiss juhli mut me vain juteltiin
Others were partying but we were just talking
Kerroit mulle salaisuutesi
You told me your secrets
Tulevaisuuden toiveet ja haaveesi
Your future hopes and dreams
Me sitten seurustella alettiin
Then we started dating
Aika hyvin yhdess viihdyttiin
We enjoyed each other's company fairly well
Voi kuinka vaikeaa on ymmrt
Oh, how hard it is to understand
Minne lhdit ja mik on mrnp?
Where did you go and what is your destination?
[chorus]
Chorus repeats the same lines
En osaa olla en ilman sua
I can't be without you anymore
Harhakuvaan taisin rakastua
Maybe I fell in love with an illusion
Kaikki oli vain unta sittenkin
It was all just a dream after all
Sut vierelleni haaveilin
I dreamed of having you by my side
Nyt hylttyn jatkan elm
Now abandoned, I continue my life
En halua pettyy en enemp
I don't want to be disappointed anymore
Mut yksin tuomittu on kulkemaan
But I'm condemned to walk alone
Ikuisesti sua vain kaipaamaan
Forever just missing you
