Scandinavia/ˌskændᵻˈneɪviə/ is a historical and cultural-linguistic region in Northern Europe characterized by a common ethno-cultural North Germanic heritage and mutually intelligible North Germanic languages.
In English, Scandinavia usually refers the three kingdoms of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, while Finland and Iceland are sometimes included. Modern Norway and Sweden proper are situated on the Scandinavian Peninsula, whereas modern Denmark consists of Jutland and the Danish islands.
The term Scandinavia is usually used as a cultural term, but in English usage, it is occasionally confused with the geographical term Scandinavian Peninsula, which took its name from the cultural-linguistic concept. The name Scandinavia originally referred vaguely to the formerly Danish, now Swedish, region Scania. The terms Scandinavia and Scandinavian entered usage in the late 18th century as terms for the three Scandinavian countries, their Germanic majority peoples and associated language and culture, being introduced by the early linguistic and cultural Scandinavist movement. In foreign usage, the term Scandinavia is sometimes incorrectly taken to also include Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Finland, on account of their historical association with the Scandinavian countries and the Scandinavian peoples and languages. However, this broader group of countries is officially and commonly known as the Nordic countries.
Scandinavia is the eighth studio album by Danish soft rock band Michael Learns to Rock. It was released on June 11, 2012. The album is the first to be solely produced by guitarist Mikkel Lentz, who previously produced most of the band's previous album, Eternity (2008).
The track "Any Way You Want It" featured on music charts in Indonesia, India and in their native Denmark. The album has received mostly positive reviews from critics with Musicperk giving 8 ratings out of 10. Timeoutmumbai, a popular Indian site, said: "MLTR's new album is like your old school friend". The album fared well in India and in other South Asian countries.
All songs written and composed by Jascha Richter; except "Shanghaid in Tokyo" music by Mikkel Lentz, and lyrics by Lentz and Marcus Winther-John.
"Scandinavia" is an instrumental composition by Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison and is the closing track on his 1982 album Beautiful Vision.
The track was the first instrumental Morrison released and would be followed by many others throughout his 1980s career. It has been performed in concert only a few times. Morrison played the composition on 3 April 1982 at the Grugahalle in Essen, Germany and was broadcast on Rockpalast in Germany and the BBC in the UK.
It was recorded at the first recording session for the Beautiful Vision album and was the only track from this session that would be used on the album. The musicians featured differed from the other tracks on the finished album and had appeared with Morrison at the Great American Music Hall in March 1981. Morrison played piano on this instrumental.
The composition was nominated in the Best Rock Instrumental Performance category for the 25th Annual Grammy Awards.
It was used throughout the 1993 BBC documentary 40 Minutes.

Gotska Sandön is the most remote place in the southern island paradise of the Baltic Sea. In the west, mountains and fjords dominate the landscape.

Music and lyrics: Jascha Richter
You made us wonderful
You made us wonderful
Leaving on an aeroplane
in the mood of april rain
The one and only
fills your heart
when you are lonely
We played a show with great routine
so many faces we have seen
and sometimes
you wonder
was just a dream
Chorus:
The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen
turns to gold in the morning sun
We are gently flying in from Asia
‘Cause we belong in Scandinavia
We all prepare for landing now
Watching the blue sky with no clouds
The cabin crew
takes a photograph
standing next to us
Chorus:
The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen
turns to gold in the morning sun
We are gently flying in from Asia
‘Cause we belong in Scandinavia
You made us wonderful
You made us wonderful
