Default Oh my Lykke Li

hey guys. im bored so i just wanted to post something.lol..

anyways, last friday i started listening to new songs i havent heard and i remembered one song i loved listening to but stopped. It was "Everybody but me" by Lykke Li. then i started listening to more of her songs and oh my god i fell in love with her songs. I have been listening to her since last friday lol. My friend says her songs are depressing lol. And maybe they are but i really like them, when i listen to them they relax me and i just like laying in bed listening to her just day dreaming. lol. And now i keep listening to her.

My favorite songs from her are
everybody but me
little bit
tonight
let it fall
breaking it up

sooo i just want to know who else likes her or is like me right now obsessed with her..lol. and you could post your favorite song from her if you like.

I'm not going to pretend that I've heared loads of her songs but I love 'little bit'. She's got an amazing voice and her lyrics are good too. And I don't think she's depressing- I refuse to listen to depressing music ;D

Ever since I heard her play at a music festival some years ago, I've been a bit of a fan. Would say "Let it Fall" is my favourite.

...

Also, now you made me play her music! Ah well ... worse things have happened.

Anyway, "Lykke Li" is a play on the word "Lykkelig" and means "happy" in Swedish (and Norwegian).


... just in case you didn't know

If you like electronica, I suggest checking out M83 as well (French I think). I heard them at the same festival, and liked them too. Think they played just before Lykke Li actually.

Back when "Youth Novels" came out, I was obsessed with Lykke Li. That album was basically the soundtrack to my adolescence.

Comparatively-speaking, her new stuff is pretty meh, though, in my opinion.

There is also some excellent Norwegian electronica like for instance Röyksopp:
