Rediscovering, yet again, that throughout my teenage years in the 90s, I constantly said "I don't really like music" but what I didn't like was the absolute glut of male vocalists that dominated the 90s, and almost secretly hoarded music with femme vocals and listened to them over and over without telling anybody because i thought/believed/knew nobody liked girl singers or that i wasnt allowed to like them myself.
(Tonight it's #TheCardigans )
Another chance to see the "Lovefool" video clip as we play out. The Cardigans never put themselves forward for the SVT Melfest selection show, I believe.
And this looks to be the original 1996 video, loosely based on the RMS Titanic. Apparently the movie is grossly over-budget and won't be finished for summer release, so it'll flop terribly.
David "Kid" Jensen, Esq. is next! Wonder if we can spot a tenuous Eurovision connection into each of the Mystery Years?
"Lovefool" - The Cardigans
Reactivated after it's been used on the soundtrack of Baz Luhrmann's "William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet", the one with the fishtank. A very good date movie.

"Lovefool" is a song written by #PeterSvensson and #NinaPersson for Swedish rock band #theCardigans' third studio album, #FirstBandOnTheMoon (1996). It was released as the album's #leadSingle on 10 August 1996 in Japan. In the United States, the song was serviced to radio two days later.

Pick 1 album and discuss.
If you don’t recognize any of these, listen to at least 2 first. I will add music links in the comments.
