a new artist is born!?

Recently various (Swedish)newspapers has been writing about a Swedish singer called Edith Backlund..
Me..myself.. I have listened to her for almost 2 years... or something like that!
I "discoverd" her when my younger cousins forced me to watch a movie..where she acted as a unknown singer.. and I fell for her voice!! so I had to look her up of course..
and I found a few songs.. but the song I liked the most is the one called "Rosie"
I cried when I heard it the first time.. it's so sad.. yet beautiful and it's a slow and calm song.. a very good combination!
So it's kinda cool that she gets all this promotion now.. and hopefully I'll be able to get her album someday soon..

Lyrics for her song Rosie

Rosie, I've been drafted
I'm a solider now 'am 'bout to die
for my nation with my brothers.
Come dear wave me off,
but please don't cry
I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
but my undying soul will fly back homeand kiss you goodnight

Rosie, when I daydream
you will be my one remaining light
As I walk my way through deserts
I will carry you in my mind.

I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
but my undying soul will fly back homeand kiss you goodnight.
I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
but my undying soul will fly back homeand kiss you goodnight
I will fight 'til I fall and I can't make it up
But my undying soul will fly back homeand kiss you goodnightRosie,
I will try to wear my judgementlike it's a shiny crown
Do get married, have his children...
I will wait for you on the other side
