Rasmus Seebach- a Sensation in Sweden this summer

single -happy again

I have already posted some details of Rasmus, having been listening

lots to his great debut CD it certainly deserves a second mension. Last christmas

in homeland Denmark it gave Susan Boyle's CD a run for the money in Sales, and

now this album is making a mark on the swedish charts even thu its sung in danish.

Here is some words from Rasmus on his debut hit..

It is an incredibly honest record. I try not to hit any particular genre or style,

but I write songs from my life, about things that matter to me.

So I hope people find it interesting and that my songs can arouse true feelings in people. "

It all began with the single, 'Angel', which has stormed radio and charts over the

summer 09 and has so marked Rasmus on the musical map of Denmark

- including when he scored his first number one.

It should certainly be no secret that Rasmus comes from a musical family.

And about having to live up to Tommy Seebach voice and musicality says Rasmus:

"It is of course difficult to avoid being compared with my father.

I am incredibly proud of what my father achieved in his long career,

and I would be happy if only

I could get a fraction of all the musical experiences that he has had. "

Rasmus continues, "I am sure my father would be proud of the album

Nico (his brother) and I've made, and I am sure he enjoys himself just

up there and hums with our new songs."

when he sings the track 'Det Jeg Er' (It is Me ) a tribute to Tommy

with the lyrics - "It took me 29 years, but I get it now -

now I've done, Just like you said when you told me- Sing kid, just sing

- and I do so. "

"But now I sing most, because I cannot help it" adds Rasmus Seebach.

The Ark are back- In full Regalia

The Ark they gave us 'The Worrying Kind' back in Melodifestivalen 2007.

They stole the show with there very own style of Modern GLAM Rock back

when Miko was not even thought up!

The Ark new Cd is available as a full 20-page magazine as well, which is

a great idea - and the tracks as dysfunk-ed as ever with the likes of 'Hygiene Squad'

or 'I'll have my way with you Frankie?" just a couple. The first single is 'Superstar'

from the new album.

...we have a soft spot for the album track 'Did you ever heart a Song'

check it out here...

'Natteravn' Rasmus Seebach One great dance Mix

introducing Rasmus Seebach Denmark's Schlager Son - Happy again!

this is Tommy Seebach's son Rasmus.Tommy Seebach the king of schlager for the danes. Has a musical son

who just now is riding high in Swedish charts with 'Natteravn' with a

fantastic dance mix of his new hit. This single has enjoyed a long run in

sweden peaking at No: 6 showing signs that it is not finished yet.

Meanwhile back in homeland Denmark Rasmus is continuing his dad's traditions

with a string of top 3 hits sung in danish 'Engel' (Angel), 'Glad igen' (Happy again) 'Den jeg er'

-this sensitive ballad's lyrics deal with his fathers sudden death from alcoholism

& how he has forgiven him and all is well.

The debut album is called 'Rasmus Seebach' - a great set of 12 tunes, perhapes

he will really follow in his dad's shoes onto the Eurovision stage?
