All The Butterflies In Your Stomach

Monday, May 15, 2006
Dagens Nyheter reports that Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins will announce the reunion of the original Genesis tomorrow at a joint press conference. Until tomorrow there's no telling if this has any truth to it, but imagine just how fucking sweet that would be. They mave have lost their awesome prog-rock hair and recorded one or two or seventeen cheesy love ballads, but I still believe they could pull out an amazing show from their sleeves if the motivation (=money) existed. I'm trying to keep myself calm until tomorrow, but with news like this that's proving to be harder than it seems.

Patrik Isaksson released his fourth album last week. It's a self-titled one, which usually means it's a "back to roots"-deal and this album does little to change that prejudice. What we have is a lovely little disc with some great summery music somewhere right inbetween Lasse Lindh, Coldplay and Kent. It's definetly Patrik's best effort to date and I recommend it now that the summer seems to really take off nicely. Opener "Innan Klockar Slår" ("Before The Clock Ticks") has also been chosen as the song used in the new Pripps Blå-commercial which usually means plentyful of cash and musical immortality (Who is ever ever ever going to forget Tommy Nilsson? No matter how hard we try..).

This just killed me. Almost as good as Tetris: The Movie. Someone really have to make these.
