    Default Interested in Sweden?

    Here is some information from Henrik Schyffert, Sweden - The Fast Food Nation ..

    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    It's always cool to see one of Robert's earlier videos before he decided to add a guitar into the mix.

    Seriously we have lots of various "swedish" food, usually containing a lot of real butter and double cream. We also eat a lot of Spuds

    Here is another fine information video for you:

    Sure, I understood the English parts (the English would say bits).

    Do Swedes often speak Swenglish? Is he exagerating this to be funny?

    This is of course meant as a joke. Henrik Schyffert is a really funny guy.. here is some info:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henrik_Schyffert

    He also used to play in a band called Whale:

    *edit* Whale videos may be offensive to sensitive eyes and ears.

    Schyffert is a funny dude. He's getting plenty of gray hair, it seems. I haven't watched any of his comedy work in years. There are a few really good comedians in Sweden (you'd probably need to be Swedish to understand their jokes sometimes though).

    I went to his website and that took me to the batch of youtube posts. I may not be Swedish and I may not understand everything he says, but he's a great visual comedian. The youtubes I found didn't have subtitles, so obviously there was some loss of comic relief, but he certainly is an entertaining guy.
