1) Kim L… Read Full Bio ↴There are several Danish musicians by the name Kim Larsen:
1) Kim Larsen (Kim Melius Flyvholm Larsen, Copenhagen, Denmark, 23 October 1945 - 30 September 2018) was a Danish rock singer, guitarist and songwriter, known for his solo career as well as being the lead singer of Gasolin'.
Inspired by The Beatles and rock'n'roll, Kim Larsen began writing songs and playing guitar. In 1969 he met Franz Beckerlee and Willi Jønsson. The three of them founded Gasolin' and were later joined by drummer Søren Berlev.
After Gasolin' released their second album, Kim Larsen left the band due to creative differences, but he was quickly convinced to rejoin the band again. In 1973, prior to Gasolin' releasing their third album, Larsen recorded his first solo album, Værsgo. Another followed in 1978, when Gasolin' disbanded. That same year he released a live album, Vogt dem for efterligninger, under the name Starfuckers (together with Stig Møller).
Larsen released several records under his own name in the early and mid 80s, most notably Midt om natten. In 1986 he founded a new band Kim Larsen & Bellami. The band released four albums up until 1992, when they disbanded again. Larsen then recorded another solo album, Hvem kan sige nej til en engel, before he moved to Odense in 1995 and found more success with his new band Kim Larsen & Kjukken. The band continues to record and perform live to this day and they released their latest studio album, Gammel Hankat, in 2006.
For almost four decades, Kim Larsen has had a number of successful album releases as a solo artist and is one of the most influential and popular artists in Danish popular music history. He remains a top concert draw in Scandinavia and his 1983 album Midt Om Natten is the most sold album in Denmark with more than 532,000 copies shipped (as of 2010). As a solo artist Kim Larsen has sold approximately 3 million records, an exceptional feat for an artist recording in Danish.
2) Kim Larsen is one of Denmark's leading underground figures, best known for his work with doom metal band Saturnus and his solo folk-noir project Of the Wand and the Moon. He has also issued records under the Solanaceae and The Loveless banners, and is a member of and lyricist in the band Black Wreath.
Jutlandia
Kim Larsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Da der var krig I Korea
Skibet hed Jutlandia, og det kom vidt omkring
For der var krig I Korea
Udstyret fra kælder til sal
Som et flydende hospital
For Jutlandia
Hun kommer som kaldet til slaget
Hjemme er jægeren
Hjemvendt fra jagt
Og sømanden hjemvendt fra havet
Når drengene de skal I krig sejler kvinderne forbi
På de røde kors malede skibe
Og Lillili Marlen synger
Auf Wiedersehn
Når de falder på stribe
Kanonerne spiller første violin
Come on soldier
Syng med på melodien
Hey how
For Jutlandia
Hun kommer som kaldet til slaget
Hjemme er jægeren
Hjemvendt fra jagt
Og sømanden hjemvendt fra havet
(Mellemspil)
Hun sejler gennem natten, med alle sine børn
Levende og døde
Hvid som en jomfru
Og tapper som en ørn
Går hun krigen I møde
Sygeplejersker på 16 år
Tilser soldaternes sår
Hey how
For Jutlandia
Hun kommer som kaldet til slaget
Hjemme er jægeren
Hjemvendt fra jagt
Og sømanden hjemvendt fra havet
Hey how
For Jutlandia
Hun kommer som kaldet til slaget
Hjemme er jægeren
Hjemvendt fra jagt
Og sømanden hjemvendt fra havet
The song "Jutlandia" by Kim Larsen is about a hospital ship named after the Jutland peninsula in Denmark that was sent to Korea during the Korean War in 1949. The ship was equipped with everything needed to function as a floating hospital and was painted white like a virgin and was brave like an eagle. The song describes the ship as "coming to the call of the battle" and serving as a refuge for soldiers who are on the battlefield. It tells of how the ship helped wounded soldiers and how young nurses on board tended to their wounds.
The lyrics also touch on the theme of separation and how women and children are left behind when men go to war. The "Lillili Marlen" mentioned in the song was a popular German song from World War II that was played on the radio and sung by both the Axis and Allied forces.
Overall, the song "Jutlandia" by Kim Larsen is a tribute to the brave men and women who served in the Korean War, specifically the hospital ship Jutlandia that provided life-saving medical care to wounded soldiers.

Mr. Vuk Yu
Jeg voksede op med denne sang i 90'erne... Kim Larsens musik er en af de få ting der stadig giver min et solid minde om 80'erne og 90'erne....
Jeg husker mit "projekt opgave" om "jutlandia"... Og det endte med at jeg fik ekstrem respekt for det de folk der var aktive i wwII, og gjorde hvad andre ønsker de ville gøre i en lignende situation
Jeg ved hvad vores forfædre kæmpede for og imod...so much so, that they gave up their lifes....
Jeg er klar over at jeg ser ting på em anderledse måde en alle andre...
Men jeg beklager, vi er få mrd'er fra "USSR" (only difference is that it's controled by the political elite ruling Europe...
No, I'm serious.... we are litterally no more than a few "votes" away from joining the "european version" of "USSR". I belive that a strong social tax, along the lines of that of DK, N, S, etc... But all that is going to be underminded by "common EU laws"... aka... everyone in scandinavia are going to end up paying socia security money to cover everyone inside the EU... because no other country would want to create similar welfare laws, because those who would want something like that, would be expected to apply in a nordic coulntry... and as such it would be political suicide for everyone, to suggest that your own country should pay for stuff like that... because, why on earth would anyone vote in favor of something that would highly increase their tax... when it's already being paid by the rich mnorrons who agreed to fund our state. :-|
Edit: of cause, all I've said is going to be labeled as racist! Because Anyone who know anything reasonble about social economics, know that this insane idea of a "global intersectional feminists" stronghold, are nothing to do with equality... or social "justice"... It's all about creating a perverted version of communism.... but instread of judgeing people based on how much money they have, itøs based on peoples skin color instead!
And if the skincolor aren't enough to determin the original sin, we'll add peoples sexual orientation into the equation.... because as we all know,. those of us, who grew up in the 80's and 90's... anyone who dared push against out parent views, was all deemed to be losers for life... Yet... How many of our generation hears "we're not gonna take it" and nods along... compare to those in our group who hear it and end up in a puddle of fear... because how dare other poeple enjoy listing to music that aren't praising the Furrer! :-|
I find it somewhat funny and also somewhat sad, knowing that Hitler would condenm me to a life sentence.... and just because I refuse to acceot the complete opposite, it's only going to me a matter of time before "the good guys" are going to punish me for disliking both sides.... and dare to advocate for democracy!.... I don't know if any of them are going to manage to kill me, or otherwise sielence me.... whether or not they mannage to do it, just keep in mind... they expect you to vote for them out of the fear they caused...
But noone of them are able to see what people decide to vote in the booth... at that point noone, what so ever, are able to dictate anything... You can vote for what you want... and of people ask questions... none can provide any proves!
Call me what you want... I don't care... I'm most likely to the "far left" of you... But honestly, who cares... all that matters is whol's going to vote for those on the ballot, and are aqble to vote... Most people online aren't in USA... who they can't vote...
Just a nickname

Synes det er en patriotisk sang. At være tapre nok til at hjælpe hinanden og dem i nød er en af de værdier som vi danskere skal holde fast ved og være stolte af!
