actually we didn't discuss it in depth, i just said it *****, but i'd be happy to discuss it at length with you guys hereThe last thing that the PTBR discussed in depth was Swedish Pop Music.
not only do i listen to indie, i listen to SWEDISH indie; that's how ****ing indie i am
so here we go:
the best musical act to come from sweden (or anywhere else) is by far (imo) Jens Lekman, here's a video of him performing my favorite song by him, Maple Leaves: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6ad3M8deNo
all his songs are incredibly sweet and mushy and super duper happy, i absolutely love it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4K90J59LQ4
he actually recently contracted swine flu LOL he's ok though
ok that's enough of jens lekman, here's some more fantastic swedish groups:
I'm From Barcelona: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxpjWmgaZSw
Suburban Kids With Biblical Names: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCGGdIfhJh8
Acid House Kings: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1mYCa5I8hA
Pelle Carlburg: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcRl1CwomiY
Lacrosse: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieJ8B_sGYQE
plus i absolutely ADORE swedish accents (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOqc4B1GaN4 this rendition of this song is very cute as well) and i'm pretty sure i would instantly fall in love with anybody with a swedish accent if i ever met someone that had one
edit: i think that was my longest post on smashboards ever
