November 2002
Dear friends,
Welcome to my monthly blog!
On this page you can read in a more personal way about my everyday life.
NOVEMBER
Oops, I´m late again. . . .
I hope you can forgive me if I tell you the reason why?
MY SECRET. . . .Last month I wrote in my diary that I would tell you a secret soon. OK, here it is;
I WILL PERFORM IN THE SWEDISH EUROVISION SONG CONTEST IN GOTHENBURG THE 22ND OF FEBRUARY!!!!!!!YEAHHHHAH!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow, that felt good!(*smile) I know that some of you have already seen the article in Aftonbladet a couple of weeks ago. The song is called “YOU” and it’s written by the fantastic Swedish singer/artist Jan Johansen. Co-writers are, another brilliant Swedish singer called Shirley Clamp and her sister Tania.
I know you will love it since it’s one of the “catchiest” songs I have ever recorded in my opinion. The vibe is, hm, let’s say, powerful adult ageless pop with strong lyrics. Briefly it’s about a woman in my age and everything she’s been through, to find real love. Tommy Ekman and Christer Sandelin (also from Sweden) produce this particular song.
More details about the competition will come next month. . .
NEW ALBUM
I’m very proud and happy to announce that the first PANDORA album in six years will be released in Sweden (first of all) spring 2003. My ninth!! Can you believe it? I can’t! I was so close taking a loooong break from music this summer and now suddenly I have got so much new energy. Where did it come from? What happen? Who’s guilty?(*laughs. . )
CHRISTMAS
For the first time me and my family celebrate Christmas at my little sister’s house. (She’s not so little anymore I’ve noticed last year when she got married). Big sister syndrome. Sorry. . . I can’t help it! Anyway, it’s going to be fantastic. They live in this wonderful house in the countryside with a fireplace and all, so we will get exactly the right Christmas mood.
CHAT
I’m sorry I couldn’t join you last weekend. Makes me happy that you have found each other and made new friends through me! It’s an honour.
STUDIO DELETED
Patrick and I took a difficult decision about a month ago regarding our beloved studio. We decided to let it “rest” in a big container for a while until we have found the right place to build it the way we want it. Instead we have rented out the wonderful east wing to a GARDENER FAMILY! Yepp. It could be worse. I mean, everyone who knows about my passion for gardens understands what this means to me! I can’t wait for the next summer!!! Yeah!!(*singing, jumpin up and down!!)
MERCHANDISE
I know you won’t believe me but it has not been closer than this. . .
AND FINALLY. . . . .Of course I wish you all a wonderful Christmas. A perfect one like in your dreams. . .
Much love and happiness,
All my love,
Pandora
