It's on a number of Turisas songs, in the background or even the foreground, a bunch of people chanting "Lie lie lie lie lie lie, lie lie lie lie lie lie".
What is it?

What does Lie (Lai? Lye?) mean?

Yeah, Shinster got it right.
For example Ensiferum's 'Lai Lai Hei' means just what it sounds like, chanting or cadence.

Oh right.I thought it was some kind of wonderful special meaning or something.
It's just the equivalent of
"HEY! HEY! HEY!"

I believe it's a phrase (similar to 'lah') that sung in 'joik', a traditional style of folk singing in Sami culture, but I'm no expert of the subject.
I seems fairly origional but i have the feeling i heard another viking metal band (as well as Ensi) do it, they probs copied turisas!

As I said, it's a general lai lai lai-stuff, nothing special. I don't understand what the fuss is about.

Prove it, start the battle of the first to use Lai, it will be like the loudest band but even gayer and more pointless
