What a great experience to be surrounded by an huge vocal choir (80 persons)!!! and all together singing one of my songs along with me!!! Tomorrow is the day! I will meet UNISOUL vocal choir and rehearse “Little Devil” song with them.
They have been actually working in another song of mine, “Keep it Simple” and they are planning to perform it in their annual presentation, in 2 weeks. The director of the Choir Cecilia NedgÃ¥rd and the rest of the members invited me to participate in this presentation as well and of course I agreed but with one condition, that the choir sing with me!
We will film it, of course! So you all will be able to enjoy it as well
I’m going to rest now, I need to be fresh and relaxed tomorrow
Rosin Murphy was recently focus of more attention than usual after a big buzz created by Lady Gaga’s resemblance to her look. I have been caught by the gossip, I must admit, and yes, I’ve done some research myself and I think it’s true, but digging deeper I found out that Lady Gaga has similar outfits to many other big stars… Moral of the story? Just a cats’ fight that gave both, Lady Gaga and Roisin Murphy a lot of free publicity. End of the comment! (regarding that )
Going back to Roisin Murphy, she has been a source of inspiration for me since she was part of Moloko. Her voice, her look (don’t worry, I’m not like Lady Gaga, I will not copy her! LOL), her style. When Roisin Murphy broke up with her partner/boyfriend, Mark Brydon, and she went solo, I was excited and concerned at the same time; but Roisin did a great work!
And now, the one that is the thief is her! I was planning to release my next single online like she will do tomorrow! (hehe).
Anyway, I’m sure it will be awesome and the online release will be a success. I will be alert and I will post it here at once (or when I have the chance at least).
Meanwhile let’s watch her short video announcing the release on November 2nd of 2009:

I read in a magazine that they were touring and they were coming here to Stockholm and I couldn’t help to remember when I was part of LSDA and we shared stage with them. It was not only a magical night, but an honour for us to be part of that big festival and play before them. It’s not necessary clarify that our performance was great and the audience loved Fernando Montemurro’s work (Creator of LSDA and also a good friend and one of the producer of “Little Devil“)Â

Going back to Massive Attack, they have been always great influence, so as you can imagine, I couldn’t hold myself and I bought tickets for the event (no way I was gonna miss it). Nordic king was dragged with me (he has no choice as I have been attending , hehe!).
The show was superb. They played a lot of “oldies” which I personally love and the gig was entertaining, lively and with an impeccable aesthetic. The lighting and the images were elaborated and fit perfectly with the songs and what they wanted to communicate. “Tear drop” version, was flawless!
I would have liked to have a better camera with me, but I only had my phone… so the pictures are not the best, but will give you an idea of how it was.
I also added some pictures of 2006, when we performed in the same festival than them.

Last days of a light Swedish summer… We went to this amusement park (I love to jump into the most exciting and threatening rides, I must admit). We took a break meanwhile I was being interviewed by a psychic…
He proposed a “game” to me to test my magic abilities. I was supposed to guess what figure was on some cards. The were put in front of me, spread on the table, with their back up. There was a sticker in each card and I was supposed to draw the figure on each of them. When he turn them, if my drawing and the card shape matched was a point for me. 1 to 2 was considered normal, 3 special 4-5 was a real pro.
Guess what??? I was a PRO!!!

After that, we kept testing our courage in the scary rides…
I have also a song dedicated to a girl that wanted to become one! (“Gonna be the one” if you want to listen to it ).
Anyway, continuing with the youtube “findings” (thanx youtube for your existence! otherwise we would be missing so many cool things, don’t you think?) and related to the blood suckers, look what I stumbled upon this time:
