It was in the supplement to the newspaper DN, “På Stan” [eng: ~”In the City” about exhibitions, art galleries, culture shows, clubs, movies, music etc. etc.] where the “writer/reporter” Fredrik Strage wrote about which “Rock and roll documentaries” he would like to see/exist. And after some words on “Broder Daniel forever” and Olle Ljungström etc. He gave a list with five different existing documentaries about Swedish artists.
Then, I was surprised, he wrote the list of five wishes – documentaries which someone should create – first place Stina Nordenstam. My Translation of Strages motivation: “To get the Stanley Kubrick-shy singer to line up on a documentary isn’t, probably, easy. But a film that describes both Stinas bewitched music and her interests for struggle sport and mountain climbing could be remarkable”
There was also a little Stinapicture attached to the article, I’ve never seen this picture before… but I threw the paper away a couple of days ago
While looking at the piece online I also saw an other thing of Fredrik Strages.

Here Strage made a huge list of the 100 biggest rockhistorymoments on youtube. On the top question “What was the objective with this list?” he says something like: “To put together the 100 the biggest rockmoments on Youtube. With” biggest” meant I not necessarily the most well-known concerts or the best artists. The snips would be amazement arousing. The objective was that few people to detect somewhat “new”. And that I could say ”quiet I work” when familiar complained on that I sat and lazy checked on old Napalm Death-conserts”
It is an investigation in per cent female artists, irish artists, how many per cent 70’s music on youtube etc.
Number #29. Is Stina Nordenstam Opens the riksdag/swedish parlament with song ”One for my baby”
Before this, I hated Fredrik Strage… something of an annoying mainstream creep… but then I didn’t know that he liked/amired Stinas work. So maybe I’ve changed my mind, I don’t know.
This was his results – I don’t know If he meant it to be fun
