Do you remember the A*Teens? The swedish euro kiddie pop group who were once called ABBA Teens but then stopped doing ABBA covers and therefore making sense. Well, this little lady used to be one. Let’s be honest, they were a bit shit so you might think it right to set your estimations low at this stage. Wrong! Watch and listen:
Disconnect Me was one of the entries for Melodifestivalen 2009 (it’s basically A Song for Europe done with a lot more care and effort). It came 6th out of 8. I have no idea how that happened but, if there are five better songs out there which I haven’t heard I need to hear them. The tracks also the first single from Marie’s second solo album which is pencilled in for an Autumn release in Sweden and probably not even being considered for release by any record company bosses here in the UK.
