There are a million and one more nice things said about lykke li with each passing day.
One day we are gonna exhaust all the adjectives we can use to describe just how much of a character lykke li is.
I am still going to let you in on how much she deserves to be great. not just good, but awesome great.
I believe (and so does lykke li), that the term indie is a useless term and that there is no indie music, only good, quality music which makes people stand up and listen.
As much as it would be easy to classify her with the wonderful swedish music crowd, lets treat her like she belongs to another world.
Her debut album youth novels is one to marvel at.
In this album she will literally serenade, coo, whisper, sing, mix it up with foot stomps, loudhailers and most definitely cast a spell on you with the fragility and edginess to her. Various personalities come through all the time, with different layers peeling off with each song, reminding you of her diversity.
It is a journey with lykke li, a whole bag of emotions involved.
Poised, articulate, flirtatious, precocious, inimitable, unpretentious, genius.
Dont be daunted by these descriptions, it still comes through with simplicity in the end and we will all be left wanting so much more.
