Would there be any point in passing them on?
What could Stina read in them that she can't read here anytime she likes?
Where ever the location,its the same old grumbling.

I did have what appeared to be a residential address for Stina a couple of years back but to be honest,I would never have written to Stina via her home address,thats assuming that it was her home address of course.
Knowing how much she values her privacy I'm not surprised that she wouldn't reply to fanmail via that particular route.
Has anyone ever received any written replies from Stina to letters sent to her via the various record companies she's been on over the years?

I once received a reply by email... it was a long time ago (1999 I think).

Just got a message from Helen-
'Hi Dave
Hopefully we should have more news very soon. My gut feeling is there will be an album late this year.
H'
I'm not sure what to think......
My gut feeling is that if that's the best offer (a gut feeling rather than anything concrete) and it's LATE this year,rather than pretty damn soon,then we may be in for a much much longer wait.
Actually I think my real gut feeling is that Stina has issued her final album a couple of years ago...
Ah well,'Life is full of possibilities' etc etc
Now someone please be more upbeat than me

Well, at least we know there will most likely be no album this year.
And we all know what "very soon" means in stina-ish.

That reads identical to the response I received this time last year.

Don't worry,I was (kinda) kidding.
The first sentance was identical but the second part was 'similar'.
In all honesty,I doubt Helen has any idea when the new album is going to released apart from that it won't be in the near future.

Something like-' My gut feeling is there will be an album late this century.' ?

I wrote her in 1998 when I wasn't aware of her shyness from attention.

I actually got her address at one point, and wrote her a very considered, thoughtful letter explaining why she should give me the This Is boots. I pointed out the advantages to her of such a gesture - ie not getting her house broken into by a deranged boot fetishist with a grim determination to possess the boots or die trying.
She never replied, though oddly I did have a visit from the local police shortly afterward, pointing out the advantages to me of not writing to Swedish songwriters demanding boots, ie not ending up in prison.
