Appreciation... Erik Halldén

Jens Lekman's not the only Swedish indie pop crooner I'm bit-boppin' around to these days! If you don't recognise this post's object of appreciation, please allow me to introduce you to Erik Halldén! This track is his newest offering, called "If I Ever Get Married", and I think it's probably one of the most charming and clever pop songs I have heard in a long time!

I hope you enjoy it!

Appreciation... Pelle Carlberg

Another favourite to come out of Sweden... "I Love You, You Imbecile" by Pelle Carlberg, from his sophomore album In A Nutshell.



Oh, to be in love...

But enough thinking about that! How about the semi regular posting I've got going here again!

Woot!

Appreciation... Jens Lekman - "Black Cab"

I have really been stuck on listening to Jens Lekman's albums lately as I'm busy doing stuff around my place and a favourite track from the CD You're So Silent Jens is the track "Black Cab". To my pleasant surprise I found this video tonight, so I wanted to post it here.



If there's ever been a snowball that stands a chance in hell, it's this one. :)

Here's the song live too from a performance at Konserthuset, Gothenburg, Sweden December 11, 2003.

Distraction... Jens Lekman~ You Are The Light

An amusing video to counter a heavy evening.
