Helena's new single in Swedish (V): Fen & Jag

I have recorded a song and made a video with my family and friends, it is called “Fen & jag”!

While waiting for my second solo album to get released, I have made this song together with Martinique and Per Blomgren from my band Sandy Mouche in Per's garage studio, just for the fun of it and to give something to you who wait patiently! I wrote it and they produced it for me.

It is about how I met a fairy one day who said she could give me a new life, to live my life all over again, so I could erase my mistakes and get released from the sadness I have gone through. But my answer to her is, that I now understand that all the tears and the laughter would lead me to where I am today, and I don´t want to change a thing. It was all worth it. Now that I have managed to get a child and my own, new family. When the vocals were recorded, my baby boy was sitting on the floor playing. You can actually hear him in the song, too! At 1.17!

The new single “Fen & jag” has a cute cover made by Martinique and you can download it at CDBaby.com. Unfortunately my homepage is dead at the moment, but just wait a couple of days and it will be back!

This song is not on the album, it is just a present for you! And some amusement for myself, because I needed to have a little fun instead of just waiting. The video crew is my sisters Sofia Josefsson (photography) and Carolina Josefsson (assistant) and my friends Annette Lindqvist (script) and Jens Jansson (cut)! Recorded in Skanör, on the very south edge of Sweden.

Comments from the fans:

Per Gessle posted on his Twitter the lastest Helena Josefsson’s video called “Fen & Jag”. Suprisingly, her official website is no longer available, so we know nothing about the release dates. I really like the song, though I expected the second album would be in English as the first one was. But this time she decided to record sthg in Swedish. Sounds fresh, interesting and much Helen-ish!

Hej Helena, I've just seen your new video. It looks so lovely in comparison to those clips which we get from MTV. The sea, sand and you having fun on the beach without unnecessary nudity or strange dancing figures. Love it. It's a pity that I don't understand the lyrics but still I'm glad to hear you singing in your native tongue. As far as I can remember once I asked you if you would ever consider singing in Swedish and here's my reply. :) Nice treat after a hard working weekend of mine. Thanks.
