What’s this? Linda Bengtzing is out with a new single AND music video today. This is ‘Äntligen’.
Is it a cover of the Shirley Clamp classic? Not quite. It’s a cover of another Swedish classic – by Marie Fredriksson.
What’s she done with it? Impressively, it’s not just a touching tribute to the legend we lost at the end of last year, it’s also been done as a very current re-working, that can sit seamlessly alongside so many of the soulful ’80s-inspired tracks that are on today’s biggest playlists.
Produced by? Mattias Andréasson.
You can find ‘Äntligen’ on our Best New Synthpop playlist.
