Today was great. At first, I was sitting there wondering why I’ve been having a harder time making visceral contact with the music since we moved to the temporary studio (feeling it bodily as Dean Bavington would say). I had a sudden intuition. I rose, and approaching the main overhead light switch for the studio, I turned them off. After the vibe was good.

A commenter at Fluxblog claims that “The live/acoustic video for this song is like a who’s who in Swedish indie pop”, if you ever wondered what that would look like. But I’m not sure you can really call it acoustic, since she sings through a megaphone and all.
