Dünya, tüm insanlar, gözümde bir oyuncak, bir rezillik, boş ve anlamsız bir şeydir. Uyumak, bir daha uyanmamak istiyorum, rüya görmekte istemiyorum. Sizler, gerçekte yaşadığınızı zannediyorsunuz. Elinizde hangi sağlam kanıt ve mantık var? Ben artık ne bağışlamak, ne bağışlanmak, ne sola, ne de sağa gitmek istiyorum. Gözlerimi geleceğe kapayıp, geçmişi unutmak istiyorum. Hayır, kendi yazgımdan kaçamam. Başıma gelen bu delice düşünceler, bu duygular, bu gelip geçici hayaller bir gerçek değil midir? Her ne olursa olsun, benim mantıklı düşüncelerime göre, bunlar daha doğal ve daha az yapmacık [...]

Knotan Artists lose record deals; it happens all the time. But when it happens to an international artist and rather than find a new deal, they disappear off your radar entirely, well that's just a shame. Swedish singer-songwriter Frida Hyvönen was represented by Secretly Canadian for her first two albums, 20052s Until Death Comes and 20082s Silence Is Wild , but after that they parted ways and as such, the release of her third pop album To The Soul [...]

La Carnada denizden gelmiş bir kadının, Maria'nın öyküsüdür. Peru'da geleneksel bir balıkçı köyünde yaşayan Maria ve köy sakinleri hayat mücadelelerinin ve ağlarla örülü hayallerinin ortasında, deniz akıntıları benzeri gelgitler yaşamaktadırlar. Teknesinde, balıkçılıkta ısrar ederek geleneklere karşı gelir ve her zaman duygusal nedenlerle denize yeniden döner. Ay güneşin ve yalnızlık deliliğin kız kardeşidir. Denizin değişken doğası insanoğlunun doğasındaki eziyetlerle yakından ilintilidir. Böylece, denizin değişkenliği artar ve ana karakterlerin aydınlık ve karanlık taraflarını tamamlar. Öykü, Peru'nun kuzey kıyısında bulunan küçük bir balıkçı [...]

I dag blev det klart att Frida Hyvönen spelar på Way Out West. För er som missat så släppte Hyvönen alldeles nyligen en riktigt fin skiva, som inte riktigt fått den uppmärksamhet den förtjänar - om ni frågar mig. Men, det är inte bara Hyvönen som är klar. Även Ane Brun och Mark Lanegan kommer att spela i Slottsskogen. För er som tycker att klubbkonceptet är bra så kan vi även meddela att det fått två riktigt intressanta tillskott: John Maus och Purity Ring. Biljetter till Way Out West, som går av stapeln 9-11 august i [...]
The first in an exciting* new series! I have a memory stick full of Swedish music which I shall shuffle whenever the mood takes me and then post the first track that comes up each time. The memory stick doesn't contain any Europe, Sylvia, Herreys or Ace of Base (yet) however, so no need to panic! Frida Hyvönen - London mp3 *Excitement levels can go down as well as up. Consult your GP if symptoms persist. Too Much Apple Pie is not an equal [...]
Tweet vaso link " Feels like I've been indoors for a century now." I'm gonna put it out there that that's possibly the greatest opening line of any single released this year. It's a brilliant, electric phrase for Swedish songstress Frida Hyvönen to open her new single "Terribly Dark" with, and sets the tone perfectly for a driving, paranoid slice of synth-pop. There's definitely a disco feel to the track, but it sounds more like the soundtrack to an 802s movie [...]

Frida Hyvönen is known as the serious indie artist type, but for her comeback single "Terribly Dark" , the Swede singer/songwriter has decided to turn to intergalactic disco and ABBA for inspiration. The risk paid off, in the form of properly amazing Scandinavian pop. Somehow she managed to make the infamous Swedish winter sound so fun and effervescent. "It's so terribly dark here. I'd put myself on fire if I had a spark," she grimly sings, in contrast to the shoulder-shaking disco beats and vintage synths. The song starts off slow but trust me, by the time it's [...]
If only the British music press could stop wetting themselves over First Aid Kit for five minutes, they'd see that there are other Swedish artists worth getting excited about. None more so than the ridiculously talented Frida Hyvönen, who releases her third album, To the Soul , in April. The first single from it is Terribly Dark , which perhaps doesn't quite match up to the quality of some of her previous songs musically, but as ever the lyrics are a cut above what you'd expect from yer typical modern-day popster, and unlike some others [...]
Here's the video for the new Frida Hyvönen single "Terribly dark" : http://svtplay.se/v/2711638

Frank Yang Just so we're clear, I am not stalking Veronica Falls . It's pure coincidence that I've seen the London-based band three times in the past year in three different countries - America , Canada , and Iceland - on two different continents. Really. Okay, it's not as though I was running into them on the street while they were playing - their self-titled debut was one of my favourites of last year (and barely missed my year-end list) so when the opportunity to see them live [...]

Frida Hyvönen - Terribly Dark (Spotify) Frida Hyvönen - Terribly Dark (Soundcloud) Denna dag tillägnar vi på tram7 Frida Hyvönen, eller något kan man tro med tanke på att det nu är två inlägg i rad om Frida. Men vi kan givetvis inte låta bli att lägga upp den nya singeln Terribly Dark som dagens låt. Den Phil Spector-liknande ljudbilden från förra skivan Silence is Wild har, åtminstone på singeln, ersatts och nu är det disco som gäller! Fridas pianospelande finns givetivs kvar. Lovande och att vänta ända tills [...]

Without fanfare or fuss, Swedish chanteuse Frida Hyvönen returns today with a rather disco tinged new single 'Terribly Dark' with additional news that her new full length, titled To The Soul , is due on April 18. 'Terribly Dark' is available to stream via Soundcloud but is currently set to 'private'. Hopefully we'll be able to share it with you soon. Hyvönen is due to play the following Swedish dates. April 20 – Luleå, Kulturens Hus 21 – Umeå, [...]

Den 18 april är en dag att markera i kalendern: Sveriges bästa Frida, Frida Hyvönen, släpper då sin nya skiva To The Soul. Skivan spelades in i somras och höstas tillsammans med Jari Haapalainen. En kombination som tidigare gett oss två fantastiska skivor. Den första singeln Terribly Dark släpps redan i dag. Ser ni fram emot att åter se Frida live så finns det speldatum redan nu: 20 april - Luleå, Kulturens Hus 21 april - Umeå, Sagateatern 1 maj - Stockholm, Södra Teatern 2 maj - Stockholm, Södra Teatern [...]
Feist's new album Metals is out this week, and although it's already getting a slew of good reviews, as we confessed earlier this week, we've never been massive fans of the Canadian singer/songwriter. We don't think she's terrible, but we do think there are plenty of other great female singer/songwriters out there who are deserving of your attention. In view of this, we've taken it upon ourselves to bring together a selection of our favorites — if you like Feist, we reckon you'll enjoy the work of the artists after the jump. On a related note: what do [...]

The blogs are buzzing with yesterday's announcement, via a terse yet sincere statement on their website , that Athens, GA hometown heroes R.E.M. are calling it quits after three decades on the road, the radio, and the cultural consciousness. We first covered the genre-defining band back in 2009, so rather than rehash their path from college radio to iconic mainstream success, we're taking the opportunity to revisit that older post today in memoriam - with a couple of bonus covers of Losing My Religion , from more recent CLD faves Amber Rubarth [...]

Anyone who's read any (well, most) of my previous contributions to this blog will know that I am more than a tad taken by this Swedish indiepop malarkey, and need no second - or indeed first - invitation to blather on about it. In fact, such is my infatuation with all things 'Swindie' that I've probably said all I have to say on most of my favourite Swedish acts on Too Much Apple Pie, over the past few years. But this doesn't, of course, stop the music itself being great. So what I thought I'd do now, like, [...]

I received an email the other day whose subject line teased "Grizzlybear24 has shared a song with you on Grooveshark!" Well, it was my friend Michael linking me to a recent cover of a decades old song by Judee Sill, "Jesus Was A Cross Maker". The cover was by the Swedish singer Frida Hyvonen and it's a bruised and battered song of trying to hold on to a tempestuous and doomed relationship that is melting away. "Blinding me his song remains reminding me he's a bandit and a heartbreaker Oh but Jesus was a crossmaker" Judee [...]
Well, one of them's a cover version, but you get my drift. Marit says that "these are the last songs that I will be releasing for a long time" and adds, mysteriously, that she'll be concentrating on unspecified other projects for the time being. Suppose we'd better make the most of these, then. Marit Bergman - He Will Never Be Your Boyfriend mp3 Marit Bergman - Free Falling (Tom Petty cover) Marit Bergman - Hunting mp3 (right click) Actually, this gives [...]
