Du Gråter Så Store Tåra

I know, i know... Ane Brun is not Swedish, she is a "Stockholmare from Norways north-west coast" as said by Skavlan. I can't help myself so i have to tell you that she now also sings beautifully in Norweigan.

Don't miss this video, it's Youtube fresh and right of the national Swedish TV. Below you can compare it with the English version if you like.

Buzz... buzz! New cover!

The latest social media buzz in Sweden is the vocal group Erato, who made a cover on Robyn's Call your Girlfriend, with – Did I see that right? Nothing other but cottage cheese cans. Great version!
