This song reminds me a lot of what plays in the background of 90s teen dramas like Dawson's Creek or Buffy. Definitely belongs on the Empire Records soundtrack with Rex Manning. Brings back memories!
Being a female vocalist and sing together with Per Gessle must be an incredible difficult task given the Roxette legacy. But Helena Josefsson is not only a fantastic singer but also has such a strong personal artistic expression and a very special voice that sounds like no other. It is clear that this is not about Helena singing with Per, it is Helena and Per singing together and together they become something completely new and unique that doesn't need to be compared with anything. This is a favorite song of mine and according to an interview with Per Gessle it is on his top ten list of best songs he has written in his own opinion. In the interview he especially pointed out that he likes the way Helena sings it. I totally agree to that. I hope to hear this song live some day. It is truly a fantastic song.
I can't stop returning to this about 10 years from the moment i've heard this first time... Thank you, Lisa. Your songs warm my heart and leads me out of the some dark and difficult times of my life...
Jag kommer fortfrande ihåg när jag lyssnade en av hennes sånger för den första gången som heter A brand new day. Jag blev strax kär i den. Varje gång när jag träffar någon svårighet brukar jag lyssna på denna sång och den lugnar och uppmuntrar mig ganska mycket:)
