I’ve just finished reading ”Alla tiders Gyllene Tider”. The book is of very high quality, anyone can tell it already at the first glance. It’s unbelievable how fast Jan-Owe Wikström could put all the stories together to release this fab book appr. a half year after the thought of writing this gem was born. I […]

Marie Fredriksson’s album “Nu!” is out since Wednesday. Reason enough to ask her husband, Mikael Bolyos, who wrote most of the songs, to ask some questions about the process of recording and some well-known names who came with “Nu!”. Thankfully he made a slot in his tight agenda to answer our questions. We appreciate that! […]

So now the complete album is available digitally and we got to know how the last 3 songs ”Stjärna som brinner”, ”I morgon” and ”Vad vore jag utan dig” sound. Now that I could listen to the album from track 1 till track 12, I must say it has become my second favourite Marie Fredriksson […]

Today we got 2 new beautiful songs from Marie’s album. One of them is “Längtan”. We had the info that Marie has written only one song for this album and we knew it was another one, but still, having the same title as an earlier song of hers made us think it might be a […]
If you have been around the Roxette world for a long time you will know Brainpool from the Roxette tour 1994. Or maybe because Per Gessle called them the best band in Sweden. And Christoffer Lundquist for having produced many Roxette & Co albums. And Jens Jansson for having played drums on many of these albums […]
One of the best ways to practice your Swedish is writing down the lyrics of new songs after listening to them several times. Here are the lyrics to Marie’s ”Det bästa som nånsin kan hända” and ”Det är nu!”. Det bästa som nånsin kan hända Det är nu! (Uno Svenningson […]
