East of the Sun West of the Moon by A-ha was named after a Norwegian fairytale, contains a song once pitched to David Lynch/ Twin Peaks, one of the greatest covers of all time and my personal favourite, Slender Frame. #a-ha #eastofthesunwestofthemoon

The heroine from East of the Sun, West of the Moon finally rescues her prince by beating the long-nosed princess in a laundry contest (because trolls can’t remove tallow from a shirt).

What’s up with that?

At the end of East of the Sun, West of the Moon, the heroine and her prince run away from the castle, taking “all the silver and gold” with them.

Is money an important part of their happily-ever-after?

One of the most well known versions of ATU 425A is East of the Sun, West of the Moon. A bear offers to buy a peasant’s youngest daughter and the girl claims she is not afraid.

Would you be scared? ☀️🌙 🐻‍❄️

The heroine from East of the Sun, West of the Moon uses a golden apple, a golden carding comb, and a golden spinning wheel to tempt the troll princess.

Why are these three items so tempting?

In East of the Sun, West of the Moon, the heroine rides on the backs of the east, west, south, and north winds as she searches for her lost husband. 🌬️☀️🌙

What does it mean to be carried by the wind?
