06/01 : "When we were heroes, when we were winning.."

✖MOOD: still tired.
✖MUSIC: Broder Daniel : When we were winning


There was/is a swedish band called Broder Daniel (broder = brother) from Göteborg. A ugly swedish man called Håkan Hellström was in the band years ago but left for a successfull solo project. But in my opinion, the dude can't sing. I had only heard a very few songs from BD (Broder Daniel) before I went to one of the biggest festivals in Sweden back in 2004, "the Hultsfred festival". I went to the festival with a friend and without permission from my parents, last concert we saw last night was the BD concret.. they touched me so much. I was in tears when we went back to the camp. Ever since, they've been very special to me although I've only seen them live once.

The band has pretty much disbanded, (or maybe not but a BD concert seems to be very rare) I don't know why but perhaps because of the death of the guitarist. Apparently he comitted suicide some months ago ._. The thing is that they'll have a new gig in Göteborg this summer - in honour of their lost guitarist, I don't want to miss it but as I've told before - I have no money. And THAT IS really bothering me right now besides the "I need a job" issue :/ They're special to me, like the band HIM and I don't want to miss this.. But the gig is during a festival called Way Out West and the entrance is around 1300 SEK, and that's TOO MUCH!

Hmm.. but if I manage to get a job at the festival I'll get in FOR FREE.

read the lyrics for "when we were winning"! :'o
The long version is acoustic and so beautiful.
