As you might have noticed, the lyrics of this song consist of only one phrase repeated several times, which might seem cryptic or puzzling at first. However, it is important to take into account the context in which this song was released. Janne Hurme, a Finnish rock singer, released this song in 1989 as part of his third album "Viimeinen mammutti" (The Last Mammoth). This was a period of great political, social and cultural changes in Finland, as the country was transitioning from its traditional welfare state model towards a more market-oriented, globalized economy. This process caused both enthusiasm and anxiety among Finns, as well as a sense of uncertainty about the future. In this sense, "Shangri-la" can be interpreted as a metaphor of a utopian, idyllic place where everything is perfect, peaceful and harmonious. It is an imaginary oasis that offers solace and hope in a world of turmoil and confusion.
Moreover, the use of the night forest as a setting adds a mystical, dreamlike quality to the lyrics, as if the singer were searching for an otherworldly realm beyond the mundane reality. The repetition of the phrase "mmmmmmmmm" can be seen as a vocalization of the singer's trance-like state as he wanders through the darkness, listening to the silence and seeking a glimpse of Shangri-la. It is a minimalist, yet powerful way of conveying a state of mind, a feeling or a vision without resorting to clichéd or explicit language. In this sense, Janne Hurme can be considered an insightful lyrics interpreter who uses economy and ambiguity as tools to convey universal themes and emotions.
