_ _ [Eb] _ [Abm] Hi, my name is Amanda Jensen.
I am 21 years old and I live in Stockholm, Sweden.
And I'm here to talk about my new album [Ab] called Happyland. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
[Dbm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ During [N] the making of Happyland I was very inspired by _ music from the 30s and 40s.
And I listened to a lot of Cab Calloway.
_ I'm going to play his hit song, Mini the Moocher.
I had a band with my father _ _ when I was _ about 16 years old.
And we called ourselves Amanda and the Papas, because they were Papas and [Em] I was Amanda. _ _ _
_ We played sort of _ _ _ classics, you know, Beatles songs, old jazz songs, Ella Fitzgerald. _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [Db] [C] This is [Em] what it looks like.
I [Am] was really inspired by [B] that kind [Em] of gangster jazz that he was making. _
_ _ _ Elegant, decadent, _ _ _ joyful and _ _ sad at the same time.
You can find [Eb] it all on [Ab] YouTube. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
Never wider [Ab] than a mile, _ _
[Db] I'm _ crossing [Ab] you in style.
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ Someday, _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ [Em] you [Fm] dream. _
This is my favorite [Db] album [Ab] with Tom Waits.
It's called [Db] Rain Dogs.
It's amazing.
You should [Gb] all run out and buy [Fm] it immediately.
I especially like [G] his _ [Cm] _ rough songs, _ [Bbm] _ [Ab] where he _ _ kind of sounds like [Fm] the cookie monster.
I have [Gb] so many [Db] favorite songs on this album.
[Ab] _ _
But I think I'm going to [Db] play _ Tangled Till They [Ab] Soar.
[Bb] My album _ [Fm] [Cm] doesn't really sound like Tom Waits, but [Bbm] _ I still listen [C] a lot _ to [Db] this record when I was [C] making it.
[Fm] The way he [C] puts the [Fm] instruments together and [C] _ _
the melodies _ and the lyrics, [Gb] it's so _ [Ab] unpredictable, but still so [C] _
_ [D] perfect.
_ When you hear [E] it, it all makes [Bb] sense.
[Fm] And _ I love that.
I [Bbm] like Tangled Till They Soar.
[G] _ [N] _ _ Besides _ _ _ _ that _ _ kind of gangster jazz that I was telling you about, I also like to write songs that _ _ sound like theme songs from _ old movies that were never made. _ _
So I'm going [Gb] to play a song called The End.
[Ebm] _ _ _ I [Bbm] recorded the album in _ [Dbm] a fantastic studio [Ab] in Stockholm called _ [Eb] Atlantis. _
_ The first time I [Gb] stepped into it, I _ [Dbm] felt as if it was [Gb] a church of music.
[Eb] Almost sacred in a way, because _ so [Bbm] much important music had [Dbm] come out of it.
Like _ [Gb] Abba recorded there.
[F] And also Elvis Costello.
I [Bb] heard that Lenny Kravitz _ _ [Db] even wanted to buy the [Gb] studio and move it to the States, but [Db] he _ couldn't.
[Ebm] _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _
In _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ [Gb] about _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ [Db] _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Gb] a month I'm [Abm] starting to tour in Sweden.
And I'm really looking forward to it.
It's going to be great to see how the record takes form live. _
And also _ [Ebm] how the record takes form outside of the borders of [Ab] Sweden. _
[Ebm] So [Abm] I hope to see you soon. _
Take care. _ _ _ _ _
