It’s my BFF’s birthday and in true Swedes are Sweet fashion, I dedicate my blog to those in my life whose special day it is by posting their favorite Swedish song. Sahara Hotnights are just as rocking as she is. Happy Birthday Punk Rock Girl!

Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery
All it took was someone to light a little fire under my ass to make me want to bring you guys a better blog and an easier way to enjoy the music that I love and hold dear to my heart. I dedicate hours of my time to bringing out what I feel is some of the best music in the world. This blog is my heart, my soul, this “music is my boyfriend”(To quote CSS from Brazil). I will continue to devote hours to bring you sweet sounds for all your pretty ears.
As you seen yesterday, I now have a Spotify account dedicated strictly to Swedes are Sweet. The playlists are divided into each month. I also realized not everyone has access to Spotify and you have to sign up to listen. So I have created a Souncloud account that will have playlists for you to access without having to sign up for their website. The playlists are not completed yet, but I will have them done soon. Please enjoy by clicking the link below.
Monday Kills – Happy (Pharrell Williams cover)
Sometimes I get in the mood for a little pop punk. Actually, this has been the only version of “Happy” that I have been able to listen to multiple times. Add in a fun time video full of silly dance moves and you get my attention. Monday Kills from Jönköping, takes the song and adds a little pop rock twist making it listen worthy in my opinion. Good job guys!
The (International) Noise Conspiracy – Smash It Up
This reminds me of when I made the move from Perris, Ca to Los Angeles to start a five year adventure with the coolest roommate ever, my brother! Formed after the break up of Refused, they are know for their punk and garage rock influences as well as their strong politically themed lyrics. I love dancing to this song when I’m annoyed with work.
