Nina Persson started out her singing career with The Cardigans, purveying sweet bubblegum pop music that hid a dark core, telling stories more relevant to Brothers Grimm than Disney sweetness. Kinda like sucking a lime candy and then you hit the super sour melty centre. Their first huge hit made me think about what it's like to hit acid just before going out on a date with your crush.
Her voice developed a slight raspy maturity that textures her delivery, gripping you by the throat and strumming the heartstrings that you thought have already atrophied from life-long doses of cynicism. It gives an amazing dimension when she covers rock classics.
An awesome Led Zeppelin cover.
Duet with da sex bomb Mr Tom Jones.
Fabulous take on REM's anthemic Losing My Religion.
Erase and rewind.
For some reason, I like Leonard Cohen's songs better when it's a cover version.
Abusive relationship examination.
