I remember reading somewhere that Stina Nordenstam had some kind of mental illness, and that after the 'Little Star' single went really big because of the 'Romeo and Juliet' soundtrack, she suffered some kind of breakdown. Maybe that's why her music sounds a bit fragile. - fLip - favourite early VB song: 'But' n.p. - '7th High' (promotional single) - Double 99 feat.

I've just caught onto the wonders of Stina Nordernstam since a certain Bertrand in Sweden mentioned that Stina is an inspiratiion behind Anja. I think that Stina sounds demented, maybe as if someone tried to sufforcate her as a child and cut off the oxygen supply to the brain for too long, and she wonders around with her eyes half closed. She sounds as if she ought to be a something that wanders around the world of moomintrolls, or a rag doll sitting on Bjork's shelf in a a dream thatt came about from eating too much cheese late at night. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 4 Jun 2001 06:32:28 EDT From: Wmvrrvrrmm@aol.com Subject: Re: [VS] ....caught onto the wonders of Stina Nordenstam ....

I've heard she hasn't given a live performance in about seven years and she just plays her music in her basement.
