...anyways,

There is some news as usual.

For one, this website (www.lykkeli.com) with all its lovely stuff such as a free mp3 download of my cover version of “Will You Still Love me Tomorrow”. I know its kind of dangerous to be swimming into those waters as so many amazing singers has done it before but I just can’t help myself, its like chocolate, I love it and I love singing it. In my eyes I’m not even a singer yet, I’m just a lonely pedestrian who likes to sing and do films. So here is me singing it live in the amazing Atlantis Studio in Stockholm filmed by my friend Ted Malmros. CHECK IT OUT:

And talking about films… as you all know The Twilight: New Moon movie has its premiere today. And as you might know my song “Possibility” is in it.

I have seen the movie and my song is part of a pretty special moment of the film. Look out for it.

Yours truly and sincerely,

Lykke Li

No more running to the bus on ice just to crack your spine in the fall.

No more Wednesdays at 3pm wondering if you’ll ever make it to Friday cause it’s so damn dark outside you can’t even see your soul.

Or hear any music. Or see any people.

No more, For Ladies and Gentleman:

I’ve relocated to a sunny hill in California for some intense life living and detoxing (…I WISH…)
Once again I packed my bags and relocated, and this time I think I will actually stay for quite a while. But then again I change my mind every other minute… But the sun is doing me good. And I’ve finally learned to appreciate red wine.
My lord, my teen angst might soon be a memory…
When I reflect upon it, it may seem torture has gotten me here but then again I got inner torture to cover me for life so lets skip the outer for a while hey?

Snow never did anyone any good……… neither did reality TV.

Anyways, just wanted to check in and see how you are all doing. Me; I’m happy being a domestic goddess right now while working on new songs. It’s all coming together quite nicely although it will take quite a while to fine tune it. But again, I’m like a fine wine just getting finer by time. Hold on and an album will rise in time.

Ps. Why am I always talking about the time?

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE; TRUE LOVE WILL FIND YOU IN THE END…..

" If, in your course, you don’t meet
 your equal, your better,
 then continue your course
 firmly,
 alone.
 There’s no fellowship with fools."

.................I cant remember where I found it but true indeed.

Possibility.

Written and produced by 
Lykke Li

There’s a possibility
There’s a possibility 
All that I had was all I gon’ get
There’s a possibility 
There’s a possibility 
All I gon get is gone with your step 
  

So tell me when you hear my heart stop,
You’re the only who knows
Tell me when you hear my silence 
There’s a possibility 
I wouldn’t know 

Know that when you leave 
Know that when you leave 
By blood and by mean 
You walk like a thieve 
By blood and by mean 
I fall when you leave 

So tell me when you hear my heart stop, 
You’re the only who knows 
Tell me when you hear my silence
There’s a possibility 
I wouldn’t know 

Tell me when my sigh is over 
You’re the reason why I’m close
Tell me if you hear me falling
Theres a possibility
It wouldn’t show 

By blood and by mean
I fall when you leave 
By blood and by mean
I follow your lead

So here I am again. New York City. The city draws me back like a magnet. This time it’s a different one cause I’m officially done touring. So strange. Been kind of living in a suitcase (still do, always will) ripping my chest open at stages all over the world and kind of living in a very vulnerable bubble but at the same time it’s been my whole life and being. And I met all of you guys too!

I can’t believe how lucky I’ve been and I think it’s slowly getting to my knowing what an AMAZING journey it has been. I can’t believe I’ve been given the chance and the opportunity to now also let go of the past and enter the new. I’m writing new songs as well as catching up on lost times. This is the input before the output! It’s time for the next everything, new day, new time, new bed, new hair, new day... NEW MOON!

Bamparambam! It’s true, I’m on the new Twilight Soundtrack New Moon with a completely new and exclusive song called 'Possibility'. I got to see it when I was in LA for a show and an idea immediately rose to my mind. It would take a few weeks before I even had a chance to sit down by a piano but then suddenly I wrote it while having a few days off in Sweden just coming out of a fever. I’m really proud of it and hope you will love it and need it. It’s kind of hard talking about it, cause it’s so open and obvious so my best tip is to actually listen to it when you get a chance.. Lay down on a bed and just listen my love.

Love is a serious matter when it’s real. It’s blood and it’s death. But it's also life, ain't no other way around it.

PS. The New Moon soundtrack is out 20th October and can be preordered here: www.newmoonthesoundtrack.com/preorder. Got some great acts on there like Bon Iver, Grizzly Bear, Thom Yorke etc.

Honeys. Just for the record, Im not whining or complaining about my life on this blog or the others. I know for some people it may sound like that but believe me Im not. I feel truly blessed to be alive and that my mind still floats like the ocean. Its just that Im what you call Nordic and aware that the trees have scars and flaws. But I think its beatiful. Believe me, Im not whining.

Tick tack, it's all fleeting and boom, Im still alive. Baboom, still alive. Love is longing. 

I long every minute of the day, but that dont mean Im not living.

I am so fucking jet lagged it hurts. Just got back from the States and then slept 18 hours straight just to spend the next 2 nights completely sleepless. So here I am in another hotelbed down south in Sweden. Sleep is no where near... Really need to cause getting up early for another day in the festival hazzle but here I am on myspace. I've told you already that Im feeling tired of the internet and its endless information stream but at this point there is actually nothing else to do.
Im debating life and its issues but non the wiser.
At the moment I just want to have a sex change and eat the world like an oyster. Have I told you this really is a mans world in many ways? Well non the wiser.

Female power.

Tickle me with a feather please miss Penelope Cruz.

Coming home never felt so good. While listening to Mel Thornes song.
Coming home babe now, Im sorry now I ever went awayyyyyyyyyy...baby now....dupidupidu.

Im home. Wherever that is I cant say but tonight, if only for a minute its right here. Smell of patchouli. Wooden floors.

I think the reason why Im talking so much about time and urgency and longings is because I feel Im entering the next page. New songs. New love. New adventure. Thats why its itching soooooooooooooooooooo bad beeing stuck in airports at the moment. I just want to write, sing. Re write my destiny. Somehow I've been hurting a lot this spring. It wasnt my intention at all but it happened. Its like digging your way out of prison. The tunnel hurts but light never felt better. 

Everyone who knows me knows I cant do anything for long. My motto in life is always forward. 

As my dearest lighting designer said today while stuck in Munich Airport. Your like a shark, you would die if you didnt move. 

So true. 

I love my band and my crew, theyre my family.

I love warm nights.

See what Im doing right now? Im loving the small things. 

One step at a time.

Ill be Buddha before you know it.

It seems Im a bit behind with technology.........people been bloggin forever while Ive been smelling the flowers but I feel this might become something of a habit. A short one tho. Like the time I had a black short bob. It didnt suit me. Neither does a computer.....Anyways. Im stuck at a hotel after a whole day of travelling. It was supposed to be a day off but then I missed my flights because of delays and bla bla bla here I am again. No sleep and a bed that looks the same like my last one. Bad shampoo. But good food. Im in Valencia, Spain.

I dont know if you know how many hours Ive spent the last 2 years gazing out of a window on my way...somewhere, nowhere. In a car. On a plane. Heavy bag. Hungry. Thirsty.
I try to tell my self that Im collecting memories but what will I remember 10 years from now?

Just as Im telling you right now Im telling myself.

Life is now. N    O    W.


Feel it then let it go.
