The world needs more colours

It is not often an artist sticks to the same theme for several videos in the same way as The Sound of Arrows does. The duos' beautiful, brand new video for Nova is a perfect sequel to the equally fabulous Into The Clouds 

They welcome us into a fascinating pink, yet stylish wonderland. I just wait for unicorns and that fluffy monster from The Neverending Story to jump out of my screen any time. Nova as a song is about as good as it gets in my book. If there is any justice in the world of pop these days, this should be the anthem for Spring 2011.

Sit back and enjoy!

Margeret Berger is back on track!

"I've put my hair up 'cause I want to dance"

The week starts off on an extremely good note as the fabulous Silver Fairy Margaret Berger announced on her Twitter that her new single will be released in just 21 days! Whatever happened to earlier rumoured songs "You Make Me Wanna Cry on Fridays" and "Lost in London" no one knows, but hopefully they will end up on her highly anticipated third album. I'm so excited to hear her new songs! If they are only half as good as earlier singles "Samantha", "Robot Song" and "Will You Remember Me" I will be in pop heaven!

Let's celebrate with this partypopper. Recorded back in the Silver Fairy era "Girls" was for some reason not included on the album. It appeared on an anti piracy promo cd compilation sold in stores only.

Something to vote for: Girl Happy - SOS

The overall quality of Melodi Grand Prix is quite good this year, but few songs really excite me. Girl Happy's SOS is as close as it gets. This song will for sure get my vote on Saturday if the guys know how to work with the camera. Why are robot lyrics so irresistible? Margaret Berger's Robot Song, Röyksopp & Robyn's The Girl And The Robot and Simon Curtis' Fell in Love with an Android are fine examples. Having robot lyrics in an MGP-song is of course the best way to get my approval. And not to forget there is also an 80's beat, a super catchy sing-a-long chorus and hand claps!

I wanna feel the air on my machinery

A touch of love inside my circuitry

Come one and save me from my own technology

I’m losing control, I need to switch mode

Hear me, I am transmitting a distress code
