X Telling Me, the FEVER!
December 3rd, 2008The new single, X Telling Me About The Loss Of A Dear Friend, At Age 16 is one of the songs from More Modern… I love the most.
We actually recorded another version of this song. It was in January 2007. Andreas Söderlund was the producer. I was sick all the time and everyone was really busy. Maia Hirasawa plays the organ and Andreas S the piano. My favorite part of the song, though, is the part where Jens and Fredrik sing.
I love this version as well but eventually we decided to rerecord it, it was too dramatic to handle such a lyric. (More than one man who heard it said he never wanted to have sex again.)
I posted the old version on Myspace, for your listening convenience.
And of course, here’s the More Modern version, telling it like it is (or something):

Hej!
Vilken fantastiskt video, du har en klippa till vän i Sandra Löv!
Har den gamla versionen inte hunnit komma upp på MySpace än eller ångrade du dig (med tanke på din kommentar om män som vill sluta med sex pga den)?
Kul med turné även till Norrland!

I am so touched by your music, Annika. The topics, your voice, are just incredible. “X” is an especially beautiful song and realistic. I love the version, but the old version is just an emotional roller coaster with incredible power. Please keep singing.
