Crime Waves

~ Ane Brun“True Colors” ~
Not the most original song to cover, but Ane does it beautifully. One of the most heartbreaking versions I’ve heard of this Cyndi Lauper hit. Used in a TV commercial here in Sweden.

~ Sexy Kids“Sisters Are Forever” ~
A sweet, fast-paced little twee-like song. One (or perhaps several, I’m not sure) of the band members are also in Divorce which is the the complete opposite of Sexy Kids – metal! Needless to say, I prefer this sound.

~ Alice In Videoland“She’s A Machine” ~
A bit of a guilty pleasure of mine. Their sharp electroclash-pop mixed with girly vocals probably sounds trashy to many but I just can’t resist it. Someone needs make a movie about a dangerous female robot just so this can be the theme song!

~ Headless Heroes“True Love Will Find You In The End” ~
From one of my favorite albums of 2008 (The Silence Of Love), a cover album nonetheless. A lovely, lovely, lovely take on this song, kinda psychedelic with beautiful vocals. That’s all I need to say about it really.

~ College“She Never Came Back” ~
French electronica with an old school sound. Most of his songs are instrumental but this one features female vocals. Sounds like it should be on the soundtrack to some cool 80’s thriller movie.

Anna Ternheim & Friends

Anna Ternheim recently invited some of her fellow Swedish songsters to record a wonderful acapella version of “Summer Rain”, off her new album Leaving On a Mayday. Featured in the clip are Ane Brun, Nina Kinert, Ellekari Larsson from The Tiny and Johanna och Klara from First Aid Kit. It was filmed by Christian Haag in Decibel Studios, Stockholm:
