Having picked up from the forum that Stina has a sister, Emma, who also plays and sings, I investigated further. I can't read Swedish but was absolutely captivated by the snippet of a track called 'Parla' or 'Parlan'. I also went to the Vesper Records site to view her work.
Has anyone out there heard her albums or got them? And any clues on how to get copies in the UK?

Both "sanger mellan 18-22" & "sarskorpor" can be obtained from http://www.cdon.com.
You'll need to register and use the "european" tab.
"sanger..." is Emma's debut album proper and is well worth obtaining.
"sarskorpor",Emma's recently released (although older) album with Oscar Danielson is less impressive

I think 'P?rlan' is found on a Vesper Records sampler?
Or the CD "...men du ?r inte h?r"
Beautiful song!
P?rlan
jag tappade min p?rla
i havet
den trettonde p? morgonen,
fr?n en b?t
min st?rsta, minsta,
dyra, oskattbara
jag tappade min p?rla
fr?n en b?t
och alla t?rar rinner
till en strand
och alla v?gor
h?mtar all v?r gr?t
jag tappade min p?rla
l?ngt fr?n land
jag tappade min p?rla
fr?n en b?t
och sorgens vita rosor
blir ej r?da
och sorgens vita himmel
blir ej bl?
men tr?dens kronor
vaggar v?ra d?da
och havets v?gor
vyssjar v?ra sm?
och alla t?rar rinner
till en strand
och alla v?gor
h?mtar all v?r gr?t
jag tappade min p?rla
l?ngt fr?n land
jag tappade min p?rla
fr?n en b?t

I did do it for the previous board. So maybe someone could dig that stuff out from the grave ? Want to know what p?rlan means? It is a pearl, a bead, a gem. ANd it goes:I lost my pearl
in the sea
...
<b>The Pearl</b>
i dropped my peal
in the ocean
the thirteenth on the morning
from a boat
my grandest, slightest
dearest, invaluable
i dropped my pearl
from a boat
and all the tears are running
to a beach
and all the waves
collect all our crying
I dropped my pearl
far from land
I dropped my pearl
from a boat
and the white roses of sorrow
won't turn red
and the white sky of sorrow
won?t turn blue
but the crowns of the tress
rock our dead ones
and the waves or the ocean
lull our little ones
and all the tears are running
to a beach
and all the waves
collect all our crying
I dropped my pearl
far from land
I dropped my pearl
from a boat

in the ocean

and all the tears are running
