This is a film worth seeing only for the soundtrack and if you love Paris, because the story is boring to death.

Anja should get a better producer or something, i can't help but feel totally bored by Briefly Shaking for the most part. Maybe i just need to listen to it more :?

what do you all think?

:D It's a long time since I've done the stoned headphones thing,let alone the jazz-ballet-tap :D
I like 'Briefly Shaking' but the title track is so infuriatingly catchy that it overwhelms everything else. :wink:

I own both Hanne Hukkleberg albums. The first album "Little Things" is a genius, original piece of musical art. What's great about Hanne is her use of unusual music instruments. The instruments could be anything. They fit her unique voice. Her music has a natural feel to it (sounds of cars, bikes and people) and environment background sounds, yet it also takes you into an adventure of different worlds. The album is quirky, powerful, tongue in cheek at times but beautifully layered.

I'm not so keen on her 2nd album despite my love for the single "Cheater's Armoury".

I agree that Anja sounds like Hanne not instrumentally but her voice sounds similar and I can't see any connection between Anja and Stina.

I listened to Hanne's second album the other day, it's still not been released here which is odd considering that tracks from her first got played quite extensively on JJJ. The track I enjoyed most I think was called Bombs.

Angel A is at last getting a cinema release here, which I know Luc Besson wrote under inspiration from Anja's music. I'm looking forward to seeing it and seeing how her music is used in the film... :D

I'm loving "Beyond My Control" at the moment. I keep continuously playing it at the moment.

hmm, a festival appearance; not a big fan, but at least it's something to keep me from utter boredom; there's nothing going on the rest of this year it seems...

She seems to be in 'Silence of the Lambs' territory in that video,keeping up her fascination with all things murderous and creepy. :cry:
