Hmm...

Hi there!

Been to the gym a bit later today since I slept so long, woke up at 9.15 and thats very late for me. Guess I was tired and the weather is so grey and rainy today so might be that;=)

I have gotten some comments that say that running is dangerous to the health! and that I should be careful? I really dont understand how someone can say that running isnt good for the health?

So is it better to sit and watch TV, eat ice cream all day, not moving at all?

No, really. Running, exercising in moderation and eating good food is always good for the body.

Enjoy the day now!

More red to the people;=)

Yesterday I got myself a more punkier red hair colour and coloured it and now I feel like the true red-head I wanted to be;=)

Like it?;=)

Running and Ben;=)

Good morning!

Just came from the gym where I did 9 km today. I have a slight pain in my knee so I took it very easy. But a good run all in all;=)

Weather is super today too so I think we´ll go to the sun and share a Ben & Jerry ice cream, me and Johan;=)

Enjoy the day and hope the sun shines on all of you too!

Sunny

Good evening;=)

On my way to bed but just wanted to say that today has been super when it comes to weather;=) Not to hot, perfect temperature around 22-23 degrees, no humidity like last weekend and clear blue sky all day. Been out and just walked, looking at all the happy sun bathing people by the beach, playing with Nemo in the green grass, drinking coffee and enjoying the swedish summer.

No need to go to the Mediterranean when Sweden shows its best like today;=)

Sleep well!

Music and how it was back then...

Good morning!

Some days ago me and Niclas in Alyson avenue talked about the older days when we recorded music. We started playing together in Alyson in 1989 and then there weren´t the same modern equipment as now. When we rehearsed we used to record our songs straight into a cassette tape player and I remember I just let that tape roll so when listening to the songs and the rehearsal in a whole you could hear our laughter, our random "b-shit talking" and also of course when we made songs.

Back in those days we made songs by sitting down in the rehearsing room and someone, usually Niclas who played the keyboard, came up with a melody. Then we started "jamming" the songs, seeing where it went and while they were playing on and on, I started to try and get some vocal melody and lyrics to the song. Sometimes we made half a song and then it didnt end up being a song we used, but most of the times the songs came alive and we played them week after week, year after year;=)

Our first real demo was recorded in a studio and we all joined for a weekend together. We played the songs together a couple of times before I did my vocal parts all alone, cheered by the guys, who sat in a close by room and giving me heads up every time they thought it sounded great;=)

At this time the recordings were done on a reel to reel recorder. Not like today, into a computer;=) I still remember the sound of the hoop starting and stopping. Nostalgia, I know, but I am THAT old...haha!!

Fun old times and I must say sometimes it was better the way it was. No matter todays great modern ways of releasing music, music still is about good melodies and songs people can attach to in some way. I love accoustic music so much and the use of real instruments and thats the way I want my music to be;=)

Enjoy the day now!

Thanks!

Good evening!

Just stopping by before soon going to sleep to thank all of you who have commented so nicely on my songs and also to everyone who has become my friend in Myspace;=)

I get so happy reading that you like the songs and when I read how some of you get so touched by Invincible and Floating, I feel blessed that I have made you feel that. I am also so happy that I finally share this with you and I really long for when I can give you a whole album to listen to;=)

Sleep well all of you!

Thanks Ena!

Ena made this for me while listening to my demo songs and I have to put it here to show you her talent! Thanks dear Ena for this;=)
