No worries! I appreciate that you're sh...@Mojo<br /><br />No worries! I appreciate that you're sharing your opinion on what I write. And I'm glad you're enjoying the blog!<br /><br />Medina is from Denmark? Interesting - the person who sent me the mp3/youtube link said she was Swedish, so I guess he was wrong. Will have to correct that when I get to my Swedish (slash Scandinavian) music post, which I still plan on doing. I absolutely LOVE Koop - discovered them through Pandora. Also, "Let Me Think About It" is still my jam. :)mellowyelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01156270979302155423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573366063725606536.post-33707472074812109192011-01-26T02:52:29.526-08:002011-01-26T02:52:29.526-08:00First, I must apologize for posting so frequently!...First, I must apologize for posting so frequently! I'm currently on vacation and am spending too much time listening to music, watching Youtube videos and reading blogs. Your blog is my new favorite!<br /><br />I spent summer of 2009 in Sweden and was introduced to awesome artists like Koop and Christian Falk. <br /><br />Quick note: Medina is from Denmark. She also released an English version of "Kun for Mig" called "You and I". Another Danish singer of note is the dance artist Ida Corr. Her song "Let Me Think About It" was a massive hit a few years back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573366063725606536.post-47831923806898574742011-01-18T15:11:57.202-08:002011-01-18T15:11:57.202-08:00@Saranghaekpop
When I saw your comment the first ...@Saranghaekpop<br /><br />When I saw your comment the first thing I thought was "I don't know all that many Swedish bands... but I'll look and see if I have any randomly hanging out in my iTunes library." Turns out I have many singles from musicians that I didn't even know were Swedish! So many, in fact, that I have been inspired to do a blog post or two solely on Swedish music :D Definitely come back to the site and check that out. For now though, since you like k-pop, I will suggest Robyn and Lykke Li - they're both pop and both awesome though they sound very different.<br /><br />As for Iceland, apart from Emiliana I'm only familiar with Bjork, and if you've ever heard Bjork's music, you'd know - it's kinda out there. best way to describe it is weird experimental electronic music - sometimes awesome, sometimes just weird. It's worth a listen though. Also, Steed Lord is an Icelandic dance music act that I've heard is good - I only have the remix to their track "Take My Hand" so I don't know what their actual music sounds like.mellowyelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01156270979302155423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573366063725606536.post-33854252502244535692011-01-18T14:14:53.256-08:002011-01-18T14:14:53.256-08:00OMG that Medina song is so good and catchy.
