Peter "Pain" 40 years!

Oh, I so forgot yesterday to put in a post to celebrate Peter Tägtgren in Pains 40th birthday, but here we go!

Peter, just home from a long tour with Hypocrisy in the States, got 40 years of young age yesterday and I want to send him all my happy b-day wishes and hope he had a really super nice day;=)

I have worked with Peter and also been on tour with him and he is such a nice and professional person. Working with him in the studio was a thrill and he is fast and really knows what he is doing. I also loved the way he mixed my voice. Tack kära Peter!

To celebrate Peter, let´s listen to some of his music:
Follow me;=)


Shut your mouth;=)


End of the line;=)


On and on;=)


Just hate me;=)


And one of my absolute favourites - Bye/Die:


Hypocrisy - Eraser;=)


Hypocrisy - Scrutinized;=)

  2. Hej Anette :)
    And happy bday Peter.
    I must admit that i started to listen to PAIN with Follow me (a song i love), and i really have no regrets about it. I'm quite addicted to his DM cover (Behind the wheel), and being in love with the original since it was out (one of my fav DM song of all time), it was not something easy...
    Thanks for posting all these videos. :)

    *hugs*

  9. Peter is such a talented guy :D Love Pain and Hypocrisy. And some of the remixes he's done for some bands are pretty damn good. :D

    The whole Cynic Paradise album is phenomenal!

    Feed Us has to be my favourite Pain song though ;) Like how your voice fits with his.

    Hope you are feeling good, best wishes, Ryan/

  10. Hej! Good, some promotion;=) !!

    Bye/Die has an interesting riff that reminds me of Nirvanas "Smeels like teen spirit".

    Pain is not my genre, but i followed the songs you sing and i liked them:)
    Though i have to say Peter has great intuitions and his good on melodies, dont you think? <3

    Anette do you know if he is the only one composer in the band????? Since you say he also takes care of mixing, which parts the other guys take care of??


    thanks
    love ya!

  15. Happy Birthday to Peter! :)
    Few days ago I was listening Pain with my little brother (he's almost 3 weeks old) and it's not quiet music but he just fall asleep.. Maybe he need something louder, haha? I hope he will like Pain (and Nightwish of course!) when he will be older ;)
    Yesterday I borrowed a guitar from my mom's friend. She said I have to buy a new chords and attune the guitar and I can play. But of course I couldn't stop myself and I tried to play on guitar which was out of tune. Then I tried to attune it and.. now I've got 5 chords, haha ;) Luckily I don't need this chords so this small accident doesn't matter. Playing guitar is harder than I thought but I promised to myself I will practice don't matter what will happen.

    Have a nice afternoon!

    A lot of hugs

  17. Ahhh!!
    HAAAAAAAAAPPY BIIIIIIRTHDAY PETER, ONE OF THE BEST SWEDISH MUSICIANS OF ALL TIMES AND ALSO PROBABLY THE BEST JOHNNY DEPP LOOKALIKE!!! =D
    I remember having seen him live with PAIN in the same night I saw you guys live in Sibiu last summer and the guy REALLY knows his stuff. Doesn't need to do anything out of ordinary to get the crowd going and he seems like such a devoted person to his work!
    And also a very versatile artist.

    And have a lovely weekend, Anette!!

  30. Happy Birthday Peter!! =D. xx.

    Love the songs "Follow Me" and "Shut Your Mouth". I saw Pain on tour with Nightwish last year in London -11th March 09- And WOW it was an amazing show; it was a shame you didn't sing your vocals on "Follow Me" live though Anette, that would have been just amazing!!

    Peter also shares his birthday with my Dad!! So.. Happy Birthday Peter and Happy Birthday Dad; =D. xx

  34. Hei Anette, Pain is really good!! :D I was listening to them last summer when I visited my old hometown Iisalmi in Finland, I don't know if I have thanked you for telling about the concert here at your blogsite, because that's how I got to know about it! :) The weather was awful that night, but it was worth it, both Pain and Tarot were so good. ;) So thank you one more time, I loved to hear them live. - And GRATTIS, PETER, if he reads your blog... ;)

  40. Hi Anette! Here I start my catching up.

    As always, 'Follow Me' is just great (with you singing and in the video, in which you are lovely) along with 'Feed Us' (it's a pitty it doesn't have a video). I LOVED Bye/Die, the lyrics got me smiling throughout the song. Shut your mouth was also very very good.

    Happy Birthday to him! (even if I say it almost 3 months later hehehe)

    Love from Spain
