    do you like Swedish music? If yes, post your favorites here, anything from rock to pop/schlager, disco..... to even songs by international artists produced by Swedes like Cheiron/Max Martin/Bloodshy & Avant etc. :)

    I will start with a synth-disco song from one of my personal favorite groups..... Secret Service

    Secret Service - Let Us Dance Just a little bit more (1985)

    Love the Swedes. Some of my favorite music from there was/is issued on Labrador records, like this fantastic track by The Mary Onettes. Check out Radio Dept., The Legends, Avis House Kings, etc. as well.

    Absolutely! A great tune. I heard the English language version first and really liked it. I like the version in Swedish too though I do not speak the language. Was this video ever dubbed in English? Very few people here in the States would know this song - I only know it because IIRC I heard it in Europe on my honeymoon in 1999.

    I have Hagnesta Hill and Isola in my collection. Both are excellent IMHO.

    Fairly obscure. She and her partner, Tobias Froberg, live in New Orleans and are in love with jazz!

    Credits read "Recorded in Theresa's kitchen".
