Linkin Park forever

Hey folks!

Sorry I haven't written in a while, summer is a very busy time for me. Well luckily, I do have something juicy to tell you guys: about three weeks ago I went to see one of the greatest live bands of all time: LINKIN PARK.

That's right, on June 16th I was in Helsinki at Kaisaniemi and saw those guys playing their hearts out! It was a truly amazing show, it was what I had hoped for, and more! Since I am not a fan of their two newest albums, I'm more of a Hybrid Theory and Meteora girl, I was so excited when I realized they had played just a few of their new songs and more of the older ones!

This was the first time I saw Linkin Park live, and they really blew me away. I mean, my brother showed me a few live videos, but actually seeing them live... It was amazing. What amazes me most, not only their incredible talent, but also their cool-factor. I mean these guys are seriously COOL! They look like frecken gods up there! When you see them, you have such an amazing amount of respect for them, it's almost overwhelming.

Now, I was lucky enough to be in like the fourth row, so my view was not that bad. I got a bunch of great photos too, I thought I'd share them with you in the next post. Yes, that's right; a separate post for the pictures. I just looked at the videos and sadly, the sound is horrible. My camera is not really made for concerts. So I'm terribly sorry that I can't show them to you.

Well, this was an unusually long post, and I could probably go on forever telling you how much I love LP and that I've been their loyal fan since I was about 7 years old and my brother made me listen to Don't Stay and From the Inside. But I wont. I wont, because I'm pretty sure you have other things to do now. Hope I didn't completely waste your time with this, and I hope you'll enjoy the pictures that are coming up in a sec ;)

Much love to y'all!

Awesome Playlist #1

I figured since I adore making all sorts of playlists on my ipod, I could share them with you here! The playlist I'm listening to atm, is a collection of songs I've heard at parties between the year 2009 and the present. In my opinion, a song can't be "old", even though I do use the expression from time to time. What I mean when I say it, is simply that it's been a long time since I heard the song. I think that if a song is good, you can listen to it for as many times as you want. Music has no expiration date!

Alright, let's get down to business ;)

Stockholm Syndrome

... is a fantastic song by Muse, and a concept that's quite intimidating. Look it up, if you're interested. The song or the concept, either way...

Stockholm is a great city, I really love being there. The people in Sweden are in general really sweet, but in Stockholm it's so much more than that!The people are genuinly nice, if you need help you'll get it, 'cause they actually want to help you!
In my opinion, Stockholm should be named as one of the fashion capitals of the world, and IS actually a fashion capital of the Nordic countries. But not only do the people of Stockholm dress well, they are incredibly artistic by nature. I've noticed some bands and artists (not only from Stockholm) that I think are really good, and I thought I'd share them with you! Now, some of them sing in Swedish, but don't let that stop you from listening to them! This is a great opportunity to learn some Swedish! ;)


Lars Winnerbäck (Linköping)
Hoffmaestro & Chraa (Stockholm)
Håkan Hellström (Gothenburg)
Joakim Thåström (Stockholm)
Ebba Grön (Stockholm)

The next list includes some artists and bands that are fairly legendary in Sweden. If you want to know about the Swedish music history, these are the ones you'd want to pay attention to. Ask any Swede about these bands/artists, they're gonna FOR SURE know who you're talking about.

Abba (If you've seen the movie Mamma Mia! you should know who these are)
Carola (Pretty much the Celiné Dion of Sweden)
Gyllene Tider (They're singer Per Gessle had a very successful solo carrier)
Lisa Nilsson (One of Swedens most beloved singers)
Tomas Ledin (Pesonally, I think he's one of Swedens most talented singers)
