Video: Oh My God (Official Video)

Today, in honour of International Women's Day, Rarities pays tribute to a handful of its favourite female singer-songwriters. International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future. It honours the work of the Suffragettes (those who campaigned for women's right to vote), celebrates women's success, and reminds the world of inequities that still need to be redressed.

When Sweden's Ida Maria burst onto the scene in 2008 with her amazing album, "Fortress Round My Heart", we sensed global domination in her future. Instead, the next year and a-half turned into a tumultuous roller coaster of emotions, with a delayed U.S. release and a breakdown that caused her to cancel a U.S. tour just as she was garnering the publicity she deserved. Named to numerous 'Best of 20092 lists by the always diligent U.S. music press, we're hopeful that Ida can recapture her momentum and charm us again in 2010. After tracking her for almost [...]

One show that I've personally had circled on my calendar for some time now is tonight's gig at the Loft with Ida Maria (see above) and Glasvegas. Why? Well, partially because Ida Maria's Fortress 'ro... Continue reading "Giveaway: Four Pairs Of Tickets To Tonight's Glasvegas/Ida Maria Show At The Loft" >

This song by Ida Maria makes me happy to be alive. Its driving beats and insistent vocals make me want to jump around and dance more than anything I've heard in the last several months--in fact, I think I will dance right now. Join me! I bet she totally rules live. Oh yeah, for the moment, you can get the whole album in MP3 for just 5 bucks . Sweet! --Alan Wiley

SOLD OUT EVENING : The fact that nary a ticket is available for a Glasvegas show is as predictable as bad news on the front page these days ... Well tonight's musical escape at the Paradise in Boston is completely sold out. Glasvegas (who are touring later this year with U2 and Kings of Leon) is certainly the hottest Scottish band in the world right now (Sorry Franz). RSL Live Show of the Week: [...]

by Andrew Frisicano Ida Maria @ Union Hall ( more by Kyle Dean Reinford ) I wanted to re-release my album, the way I wanted it to be. I have designed the artwork, added three new songs, and changed the track listing. Now it sounds, looks and feels like I want it to feel, and I am so excited again. The story behind this cover is a story similar to a homebaked applecake. [...]

Toronto - We here at the Panic Manual are not a religious bunch, and we tend to stay away from all things Jesus and God and Blue Indian guy with eight arms related. However, it has been brought to my attention that there has been two songs with the title 'Oh My God' in recent times, so lets take a look at them. Oh My God by Ida Maria Ida Maria is a singer songwriter from the country of Norway (!) who has been described as a 'twenty-something the Norwegian [...]

Originally I thought this song was just too poppy to post. But then, months later, the tune crept back into my head...and then those lyrics. Now that I've found the video, I don't need to say another word. MySpace Official site Ida Maria plays London's Koko 11 February. Posted in Video Tagged: Ida Maria, Oh My God

Ida Maria (Nesna, Nordland, Norway) [MP3] Ida Maria - Oh My God I saw Norwegian self proclaimed "Queen Of The World" Ida Maria at The Viper Room last night. The room was completely packed before 8:30pm and when she hit the stage......well...all I can say really is "Oh My God." The woman is a rock goddess. She wore a gold flapper dress and over the next 30 minutes proceeded to

La cantante noruega Ida Maria ha decidido lanzar una nueva versión de su sencillo "Oh My God" . El tema, que se desprende de su álbum debut Fortress Round My Heart , fue lanzado originalmente en octubre del 2007 pero el éxito de la noruega en Gran Bretaña la ha llevado a relanzarlo el próximo 26 de enero. Realmente a mi no me gusta demasiado ni su estilo ni su actitud pero esta canción tiene lo suyo. Les dejo el vídeo para que me digan su opinión. [...]

Midnight tonight isn't the exact midway point of this year, but hey, it's the last day of its sixth month, which is close enough for roadwork. Or, er, listwork, that is: After the jump, I give you the seven songs that I would be more likely to put on a mix CD than any other, in YouTube/blurb form. Think of it as a post for me and my creaky, prone-to-forgetting-stuff brain to come back to when the year-end listmaking craze hits in a couple of months and an invitation for you to engage in similar Monday [...]

Que se muera Avril Lavigne Ida Maria es la última chupada del mate en el mundo de las chicas rudas, pero con vocación popera. Esta noruega de 23 años tiene una voz de la puta madre y un disco llamado Fortress Around My Heart , con un puñado de canciones tan al hueso que da gusto. Espíritu punketa, letras vivenciales y guitarras muy onderas; a medio camino entre lo comercial tipo MTV y la actitud de una riot grrl . [...]

It's the last day of the month, a time for desk-clearing and "to do" list-finalizing and, in the case of April 2008, celebrating that a pretty horrible 30-day stretch is near its end. With that in mind, I'm going to use the last posting day of each month for "Rule Of Sevens," in which I put together a couple of seven-item, mostly-commentary-free lists—from aborted post topics to my current best-of-the-year rundowns—for your reading pleasure. In the first installment, please enjoy these seven videos that I really wanted to post on various days during April, but didn't, for reasons ranging from [...]

In the hour or so that has followed since I was first sent this video, which is by the Swedish-by-way-of-Norway singer Ida Maria , I have listened to the tense, frenetic song in the clip three times and ripped through all the songs offered up on her MySpace page twice. (The last part of that equation would have probably taken more time had Universal, her current Norwegian label, not been scrooges about letting entire songs from the records they've put out stream from her embedded player. Booo!) "Oh My God," which is a solo track in the clip but [...]

Ida Maria komt uit Noorwegen en is zangeres en het creatieve brein van de Zweedse band met dezelfde naam. De uitstekende recente singles 'Oh My God', 'Drive Away My Heart' en het gloednieuwe 'Stella' verraden het punkige geluid van deze Scandinaviërs. Het meiske runt overigens een eigen platenmaatschappijtje, Nesna Records. Dat is best vreemd. En nee, ik ga niet zeggen dat haar stem af-en-toe doet denken aan Björk. Dat is te makkelijk. Maar stiekem denk ik het toch... ...
