Artist of the Week

This weeks artist  is  a great singer called Winta. She is norwegian, and the first time I saw her live was when she warmed up the crowd before Shontelle in February 2011.
I had no idea who she was when I went there for the Shontelle concert, 

But after the show I couldn't wait for her Cd.
And today you can WIN IT!
Just by guessing which of the songs on her CD is my two favorite?


The winner will win Winta's CD!!! :-)
So have fun!

This Weeks Artist

This Weeks Artist is Jessie J.
This is a Woman who can really sing! I remember the  first video I saw of her singing on YouTube.
And it was Who you are live from a subway station in New York, this one..

I really love this song to!
And a while after that, Price tag came with B.O.B and she started to be played on the radio and people knew who she was/ is.

I have liked Do It Like A Dude, its just something about the melody of the song.

Her voice is just great, and I can't wait to hear more!

Artist Of The Week

This artist is LidoLido.
A boy/ man that is pretty much known as Norway's answer to Justin Bieber. His real name is Peder Losnegård and is 19 years old from a small town in Norway.
This guy is known for his GG4L which stand for "Good Guys For Life", 
his collaboration with StarGate, his great voice, and so much more!

If you have the opportunity in Norway to see him live, do it! I have three times in concert.
The last time was last wednesday and I ended up talking a bit with him, taking a picture, bought a story- chocolate, gave it to him and talked some more. 

-" He is so nice, so down to earth and funny! "

I cant wait to see how big of a star he is in a couple of years! Because he has so much talent!

One of the songs that Jane and I listened to a lot this summer was Turn up the lights,

- a catchy good feeling- want-to-get-up-and-dance-song!

- "Keep up with him on twitter and his blog" ! :-)

Follow his twitter which is here LidoLido

His blog Here

Sober acoustic version

Todays song is form the Eurovision Song Contest Winner Loreen, it is a song that I first heard three weeks ago. I really like the raw emotion you hear in her voice.
Enjoy!

This weeks Artist is

An up and coming artist, Derek L. Butler. He is a singer songwriter from Los Angeles, Ca.

I found him one day in the end of June, when I was watching different music covers and videos on YouTube. The first video I saw of him was this one 

Derek covering Michael Buble - You know how I feel.

I like the song and I thought that he sang it greate!

So I went further down His YouTube Page and listened to a coupe of his other cover and they are really good!

"I love the feeling i get when I hear someone that can really, really sing."

A couple of days later I followed him on twitter, and he followed me back :-)

The fun part of it all is that it turned out that he actually was one of the background singers on Justin Bieber's promo tour, and was in Oslo!

And he made this "Thank you Norway song",

And while I was in Cyprus, he posted on Twitter that the first person that sent him the lyric to the song to his fan-mail would get a "shootout" so I sat in the couch in Pafos next to Jane, she didn't understand what I was doing when I listened to the song twice, wrote the lyrics down and sang it. And then sent it, I didn't even listen to it once!

Then a couple of days later he wrote this on twitter to me,

"Oh how I laugh! "

His twitter name is @dereklbutler so follow him if you like his stuff , like I do :-)

I think it was later that day when Derek and his friend Dubri was on Ustreem and shared a pice of their new single together, a type of cover of Payphone by Maroon 5 with Wiz Khalifa.

I think that version is so good! "Haha, love that song!"

One of the things that is so cool about him is that he is on his way up and he is so down to earth. And he has this project called #DreamCatchers where he wants to help people and their dreams, its great!
 I have talked with him a bit now and he is so nice, it's going to be so much fun to hang out when he comes to Oslo next spring!

If you are interested in knowing more about him you can check out his official site, here dereklbutler.com/

It's worth checking out :-)

Today its my birthday and that means that the song of the day is a birthday song, and this one is one of my favorites by Justin Bieber,

The Vision of Love by Kris Allen

I just love the feeling I get when I hear a good song for the first time. I got that feeling when I heard The Vision of Love by Kris Allen. I was just changing channels on my Tv when American Idol came on and Kris was there preforming this song, and I immediately had to get it into my iTunes library.
Here it is, enjoy :-)

Cant wait for this CD

This week Justin Bieber was two days in Oslo, and during those days his fans managed to turn the hole city upside down! It was crazy! and I didn't  even get too see him at his live concert since the police had stopped the entrance but I got the views form the screens on the sides. Justin sang a couple of his new songs that will come out on his new album (Believe), the 18. of June, so I can't wait for that!
Now of the one of the songs that I try not to over kill by listening to it too much is Die In Your Arms, it is just so cute and nice!
So here it is 

Enjoy :-)

Still Here

The song of the day is by Natasha Bedingfield, a artist that I have loved many years.
All the way back to when Unwritten was the intro song to The Hills.
Still Here is a song I think is just beautiful! I really adore it.

Enjoy it :-)

And she sings it Great :-)

My FAVORITE SONG - Solider

Most of the people that know me well knows that my favorite song is Solider By Gavin DeGraw. I just love it, and I might have a cover that I'll show in a while but back to the song.

I think I really relate to one of the first sentences that are;

"Where did all the people go?

They got scared when the lights went low."

Just the feeling of being ditched, alone and sad...

And the song is in that aria a comfort at some kind.

Really LOvE it, and specially after The Gavin DeGraw concert, I almost started crying when he sang it!

Engoy the song :-)

And here is one form a tiny press thing he had in Oslo. This version is my favorite.

Kelly Clarkson - The Sun Will Rise Feat. Kara DioGuardi

I have listened to the Kelly Clarkson Cd's so many times and there is so many songs I like on her newest Cd!

But the song I wanted to share today is The Sun Will Rise Feat. Kara DioGuardi.

I saw it first when I was looking trough my iTunes music with my cousin, since it was under both Kelly and Kara.

Really like it. It's the kind of song that reassures you that even if things are though, at the end it will be alright and the sun will rise.

What do you think of this song?

Turn To You

I Think the song is pretty good, a little slow but the lyric is very honest and good.
