Mauranger
Mauranger is the northernmost district of Kvinnherad municipality in Hordaland county, Norway. The district is centered on the Maurangsfjorden on the western side of the vast Folgefonna glacier. Mauranger consists of the villages of Sundal, Austrepollen, Nordrepollen, and Gjetingsdalen. The scenery is characterised by its closeness to Folgefonna, several valleys, and precipitous mountainsides. The main industries in Mauranger are tourism, agriculture, fish farming and power production.
The Mauranger area was historically isolated by the mountains, glaciers, and the fjord, with the only access by boat, and more recently one small road running along the coastline. Then in 2001, the Folgefonna Tunnel opened, connecting Mauranger to the neighboring town of Odda on the eastern side of the Folgefonna glacier. This has made Mauranger more accessible, and it has led to an increase in tourism. Mauranger was made even more accessible in 2012 with the opening of the Jondal Tunnel connecting it with Jondal municipality to the northwest. Now, Mauranger is located on a main transportation route through Sunnhordland.

You don't ever call me on the phone to say "Hell-O" and
if I call you only say "goodbye".
Watching TV, how re-runs make me cry
Are you thinking of me like I'm thinking of you
Are you all alone If not, with who
If you still had legs would you be walking out on me
If I unlocked the chains would you stay
My love is like your stench, it grows stronger everyday.
Will they ever stop talking about you and me
Will they leave us alone and watch TV

Cross my heart and hope to die stick a needle in my eye Mary Anne
They say the world is ending.
Yeah, tomorrow is doomsday.
That don't really matter to us, baby.
Our love has been so perfect since the day you passed away.
Your heart is cold when it's in my hand.
Is it wrong to love you, Mary Anne
