Din bäste vän

sommaräng
här kommer natten

[nordish-by-nature]

Just heard it once....too early too say...but first impression is: Nice album...not a masterpiece but NICE!

My first faves are:

Aftonfalken
Guldgruva
Din bäste vän
Om jag vore arbetslös
Här kommer natten

..och Den öde stranden....the version that makes you think about jumping from a high high bridge....

[The Look]

What do you mean?? do you find den öde stranden not good?

[nordish-by-nature]

Hmm..yes I like it but it's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.. ..

Hahahahaha!
Sorry, it just struck me as funny (I know, I have a strange sense of humor!)

@Anele...well..it was meant as kind of a joke....It's so interesting how different Per and Marie interpreted that song.

Believe me: my kind of humour can be strange too sometimes

[tcooh]

My favs are
- Sommaräng
- Den Öde Stranden
- Aftonfalken

But no persuation in the world will convince me to like "Om Jag Vore Arbetslös"  That original song is such a sweet, nice, kind and lovely melody and song. But it's totally unreckognizeable here. Ruins the song for me. Maybe the song could have worked a bit if it was a complete new song, but as cover version of and old classical song, it should have been dealt with better than this. Read in the booklet Marie says she's glad they could do it differently, and yet again Micke came up with the arrangement. But in my ears it's just another example of what Micke should not be doing, arranging songs..  You could have done this soooooooooooooooooo much better with this song Marie! With you touch, feeling and tenderness in your voice. Low point for me Maybe some will not like what I wrote, but I stand for it. It's taste in a nutshell..

Oh, thank God! I thought I'd seen it totally different from what you meant!
Yes, Per is all happiness, Marie is more deep sentiments which most of times are perceived as sadness (well, sometimes it really is!).

And it's nice to have another person with whom to share my peculiar sense of humour!

so here are the lyrics for Din bäste vän

Säg vill du bli så rik
så du inte mer förstår
att dela med dig något till någon annan?
Och aldrig mer bli ledsen,
utan bara stå och le,
när andra riktar slag mot varann?

Då har du mist din bäste vän,
och du ska veta att det känns,
när man har mist sin bäste vän.
Långt bortåt vägen.

Säg vill du bli så stor,
att du inte mer syns till
på de ställen där du annars brukar gå?
Vill du hellre kliva i
en nyanskaffad stil,
och inte längre tänka på de små?

Vill du inte mer ha nånting ogjort,
av något som du gjort,
vill du bara ha din Gud för säkerhets skull?
Kan inget bli för stort för dig,
men allting bli för smått,
är det knappt nog med 30 mynt av guld?

@ tcooh...well..I don't know the original...so that's why I can't judge. So I guess...maybe you're right...I don't like the lyrics right now cause one of my family members got actually "arbetslös" yesterday....

and..I also don't like the lyrix of "ingen kommer undan politiken"...I'm not a type of girl who likes political protest songs..
