music: Jens Lekman




wow. okay.
so the other day i was on last.fm, and i looked at the "recommended artists" and noticed a name that i had never heard of. jens lekman. so "hmm", i said. "jens, that is an interesting name." i quickly looked him up on itunes and realized that something had been missing from my life all of this time! jens is an amazing singer, is voice is nice and deep, like a crooners.he first started singing under a pseudonym "rocky dennis"; and he now has several songs about leavig his the pseudonym behind. the song that is playing on my page "a sweet summer's night on hammer-hill" just makes me want to dance all over the place! also you all should check out "black cab" which is equally amazing, and you can hear the crowd requesting on the track on the page (at the end) what is even crazier is that after i had been listening to him, i found out that he was swedish. and "helllo" i am currently obsessed with the country of sweden, remember? craziness. some the lyrics are so funny, that i can't help but laughing, even though his voice is so dead serious. for example in "f-word"the chours is "f-word, f-word, pardon my french, that's BS, BS" seriously, they don't say the actual words. i got "oh you're so silent jens" and i suggest you do too!@

*for those who enjoy: sondre lerche, clap your hands say yeah
