Jag hade en vision direkt frÄn början nÀr jag började skriva lÄten. Det Àr ofta sÄ nÀr jag skriver lÄtar. Det Àr som filmer i mitt huvud med kÀnslor som kanaliseras fram. LÄten kÀndes annorlunda pÄ sÄ mÄnga olika sÀtt mot mina tidigare lÄtar. Dels att den kÀndes annorlunda i hur musiken ville komma fram med gitarrerna o basen samt de stora kontrasterna i lÄten med det lite otippade sticket som i sig skulle kunnat vara en egen lÄt. Och sen hur det av olika anledningar utvecklades ett driv av de slagverk jag experimenterade med.


I videon ser ni den klĂ€nning jag sydde ihop som jag sĂ„g framför mig till videon! Blir alltid sĂ„ förvĂ„nad nĂ€r jag lyckas fĂ„ till det. Haha! Man Ă€r ju inte bara nĂ„gon slags sömmerska utan Ă€ven snickare. LĂ„ten krĂ€vde nĂ€mligen en vĂ€gskylt eftersom lĂ„tens titel Ă€r ”Crossroad sign”. Denna skylt fraktade jag till inspelningsplatsen och stĂ€llde upp i en trevĂ€gskorsning. Visionen drev mig att Ă„ter igen göra saker som jag som vanligt i förvĂ€g inte visste om jag kunde klara av. Mycket arbete bakom denna lĂ„t och jag Ă€r Ă€ndĂ„ nöjd med resultatet! 


I videon fĂ„r ni ocksĂ„ se Kennie Mellgren göra ett stunt-hopp(!đŸ˜Żâš ïžă€œïž) ner för klipporna specifikt för denna video! Wow! Hur mĂ„nga meter ner vet jag inte exakt men det var högt! Och kallt kan jag tĂ€nka migđŸ«Ł Ibland handlar det bara om att ”hoppa”?! Vi kĂ€nde oss lite som tvĂ„ cowboys dĂ€r ett tag tror jag😄🎯underbart! Tack för inspirationen. 


Kennie ska i övrigt ha ett extra stort TACK för hjĂ€lpen att filma in denna video! Underbart nĂ€r andra hĂ€nger pĂ„ och vill vara med i mina projekt och gillar musiken och tror pĂ„ det man gör. Betyder mycket.đŸ™â€ïž


Kika gÀrna in bilderna frÄn videoinspelningen och följ mig pÄ min blogg hÀr.


Texten:

Finns sĂ„ mycket i denna text som försöker fĂ„nga hur det hĂ€r (Dark night of the soul) kan kĂ€nnas. Helt plötsligt har nĂ„got hĂ€nt inom en som ingen annan verkar kunna förstĂ„ eller tycks kunna hjĂ€lpa en med och man undrar ”Can I go back to the life I had before”. Och hur ensam process det kan vara att komma ut pĂ„ andra sidan av det. Och hur man försöker lista ut och anvĂ€nda logiken men det funkar inte sĂ„ bra. Man kan inte komma vidare med det "gamla" , invanda sĂ€ttet: "I should be smart enough, but I can't clever myself out".  AlltsĂ„, vissa saker tycks man inte kunna lösa med logik eller "smarthet". 


Det Ă€r Ă€ndĂ„ med lite glimten i ögat jag fick fram fenomenet kring hur man; nĂ€r man försöker göra situationen bĂ€ttre ibland tycks göra det sĂ€mre och hur rörigt allt blir. ”Tried to wipe off the dust from my face, But it get's worse and more messy ’cause I’ve got sweat in my hands”. PĂ„minner lite om renoveringar nĂ€r det ser ut som kaos men sĂ„ vips blir det bĂ€ttre Ă€n det var tidigare. The dark night of the soul Ă€r lite som en sĂ„n renovering kan jag tĂ€nka. Puh..

SĂ„ denna lĂ„t tillĂ€gnar jag alla som Ă€r vid sin egna ”crossroad sign”😋



English:

I had a vision right from the start when I began writing the song. It's often like that when I write songs. It's like movies in my head with emotions being channeled. The song felt different in so many ways to my previous songs. Partly because it felt different in the way the music wanted to come across with the guitars, the bass and the great contrasts in the song with the slightly different touch that in itself could have been its own song and then how, for various reasons, an upbeat energy developed from the percussion I experimented with.


In the video you see the dress I sewed that I saw in front of me for the video! I am not only a seastress but also a carpenter. Namely, the song required a road sign considering the message and title of the song. I'm always so surprised when I manage to do it. Haha! I also transported this sign to the filming location and got help setting it up at a three-way intersection. The vision pushed me to once again do things that, as usual, I didn't know in advance if I could manage đŸ«Ł A lot of work behind this song but I'm still happy with the result!


In the video you also get to see Kennie Mellgren do a stunt jump(!đŸ˜Żâš ïžă€œïž) down the rocks specifically for this video! Wow! How many meters down I don't know exactly, but it was high!đŸ«Ł And cold, I can imagine. Sometimes it's just about "jumping"?! We felt a bit like two cowboys there for a while😄🎯 wonderful! Thanks for the inspiration👏👏


Kennie should have an extra big THANKS for the help filming this video! Wonderful when others join in, want to be part of my projects, who like the music and believe in what I do. Means a lotđŸ™â€ïž

About the lyrics:

There is so much in this text that tries to capture how this (Dark night of the soul) can feel. All of a sudden something has happened within you that no one else seems to be able to understand or seem to be able to help you with and you wonder "Can I go back to the life I had before". And what a lonely process it can be to come out the other side of it. And how you try to figure out and use logic but it doesn't work very well. You cannot get ahead with the "old", habitual way: "I should be smart enough, but I can't clever myself out".  So, some things don't seem to be able to be solved with logic or "smartness".


It is still with a sense of humour that I came up with the phenomenon of how to; when you try to make the situation better sometimes it seems to become worse and how messy everything gets. "Tried to wipe off the dust from my face, But it gets worse and more messy 'cause I've got sweat in my hands". Reminds me a bit of renovations when it looks like chaos but suddenly it becomes better than it was before. The dark night of the soul is a bit like such a renovation, I think... So I dedicate this song to everyone who is at their own "crossroad sign"😋
