"Maybe a blog is a format that is somewhat contradictory to use in my case: you're supposed to be personal, funny and even a little paradoxical. Well, I cannot promise the last. I will write philosophical train of thoughts and leave out too much sentiment. I guess the reader will have to take it or leave it. Still, maybe someone will find this thought-provoking and even stimulating."

Two dogs imprinted in music

Published February 20, 2012 | Permalink
I think it is strange how life can surprise when it is dynamic and intense. Out of a mysterious nothing, two dogs suddenly appeared in my life.

Back in the early 90s, I got to know two dogs closely when I was working with several new works.

Yuppik (left) is the name of a dog that made a deep impression on Fred Jonny Berg. He dedicated Lonely Fryshild Op.6 to Yuppik. Later, Berg dedicated a symphonic poem to a dog named Lady Bessie (right), Lost in September Op.17

I am very satisfied that the lyrics of several songs have been translated. In 2012 a selection of these songs will be re-recorded - dressed in English...
If you would like to try out these songs yourself, a songbook including guitar chords will be available in connection with the audio release.

Where am I? - Distant Words from a Paralyzing Atmosphere

Published February 9, 2012 | Permalink
Through the years I have written a few works, and three of the titles are embedded in the headline of this blog.

It is a curious fact that long before I knew why I struggled the way I did in the conventional world (due to my Asperger's perhaps) I wrote about the same things that occupy my mind today. I have not developed or changed my reflections about matters that concern me. To be honest, everything is the same for me today as it was 20 years ago. In hindsight, all of the lyrics and titles have become somewhat self-fulfilling... Strange, and a little spine-chilling.

Maybe a blog is a format that is somewhat contradictory to use in my case: you're supposed to be personal, funny and even a little paradoxical. Well, I cannot promise the last. I will write philosophical train of thoughts and leave out too much sentiment. I guess the reader will have to take it or leave it. Still, maybe someone will find this thought-provoking and even stimulating.
