A good song stays in your head because it's catchy, a great song stays because it means something to you.
Tove LoI want the feeling where you don't really know what to do with yourself - in the vocals, in the production. Everything.
Tove LoI want people to FEEL something... If it's sadness, anger, horny, happiness whatever! As long as it doesn't just pass you by.
Tove LoIt's important to tell the artist's story. It's their song! And it's always more fun to write together with the artist!
Tove LoWriting the songs is always emotional and most of the vocals on there are the first three takes from the demos, because they give so much more. You're in that moment, so it speaks for itself.
Tove LoWhen I'm on stage, I turn into this rock person. I give everything I have. I sing with emotion, I'm loving it up there, and I think there's a lot of energy. In the same way that I'm open when I speak, I'm that open on stage. I feed off the energy of the audience too, so they're feeling what I'm feeling. And the set up is great - I have two drummers and a bass guy so it's just us four.
