This does not mean that it is a song about The person or place, but that The joiker is attempting to transfer "The essence" of that person or place into song—one joiks Their friend, not about Their friend. This joik is The essence of a young boy's dream of riding through The snow on The back of a reindeer.  ink" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="$(this).getParent().getPrevious().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less
