Copy at Case Memorial Library
Contents: Oh my God — Morning light — I like you so much better when you're naked — Stella — Keep me warm — Forgive me — Queen of the world — Louie — Drive away my heart — In the end. Words and music by Ida Maria Sivertsen.
Personnel: Ida Maria Sivertsen, vocals; Stefan Törnby, guitar; Johannes Lindberg, bass; Olle Lundin, drums.
Sample lyrics: "What's easy in the night/ It is always such a bite in the morning light/ Ha ha ha ha ha/ And you've got a liquor stain/ On your uniform/ I know where you're from/ Ha ha ha ha ha/ And you know what I've got/ Such a heavy heart/ You can't carry it/ No no no no no … Such a mixed up mind/ You can't sort me out … And you've got a polished mask. …"
"The year's most exciting debut comes from this Norwegian dynamo. A cross between Courtney Love, Karen O and Avril Lavigne, she's one of the baddest rock chicks to come around in a long time" (Chuck Arnold, "Music: Recent Raves," People, 5/18/09, p. 43).
