Lund (Swedish pronunciation: [lɵnd] ( listen)) is a city in the province of Scania, southern Sweden. The town has 82,800 inhabitants in 2010, out of a municipal total of 110,824. It is the seat of Lund Municipality, Skåne County. The city is believed to have been founded around 990, when Scania belonged to Denmark. It soon became a major Christian center of the Baltic Sea region, at a time when the area was still a frontier area for Christian mission, and within Scandinavia and especially Denmark through the Middle Ages. From 1103 it was the seat of an archbishop. At the center of the city stands the towering Lund Cathedral, built ca 1090-1145.
Lund University, established 1666, is today one of Scandinavia's largest institutions for education and research.
Along with Sigtuna, Lund is the oldest city in present-day Sweden. Lund's origins are unclear. Until the 1980s, the town was thought to have been founded around 1020 by either Sweyn I Forkbeard or his son Canute the Great of Denmark. The area was then part of the kingdom of Denmark. But, recent archaeological discoveries suggest that the first settlement dated to circa 990, possibly the relocation of settlers at Uppåkra. The Uppåkra settlement dates back to the first century B.C. and its remains are at the present site of the village of Uppåkra. King Sweyn I Forkbeard moved Loda to its present location, a distance of some five kilometres. The new location of Lund, on a hill and across a ford, gave the new site considerable defensive advantages in comparison with Uppåkra, situated on the highest point of a large plain.

Genres: Comedy,Two brothers from the south of Sweden came to stay with
One of them would have gotten my virginity
but he didn’t know that back then, did he!
He didn’t know that back then.
He went a bit rough on my poetry,
said: there’s no chance in hell this will ever grow to
be anything.
He said: I mostly like Dylan myself
I said: Shocking! Well
Then he said something else, I didn’t understand
Because he came from the south of Sweden, he spoke just
like a Dane
You should have seen these brothers!
Freckles all over their pale bodies.
And when they spoke, they made you feel like summer
just broke through though it was fall
They made it obvious I was too young, not interesting
at all
I always wanted to go to their hometown and knock on
their door
And say something interesting and revolting that they’d
never heard before
to make them change their minds, after all this time:
Look! There was some cool in me, you know!
They probably still won’t think so.
And I’m in Lund again, and nothing’s fixed that ever
was broken
And I’m in Lund again, and I still don’t get things
right
And I’m in Lund again, and maybe they have grown up
and maybe they are here
