Chords for Interview with Stina Nordenstam

Say [C] you'll hate a pound
_ _ Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of Miss Stina [F] Nordeström,
ethereal [C] Swedish singer-songwriter [Bb] with a voice the likes of which you've never heard [F] before.
_ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ [G] At only 25 years of [F] age, Norden just [Fm] released her second album to [C] critical acclaim,
and she [F] closed her eyes as a vocal painting,
delving into affairs of the human [E] heart with a good sweep [Fm] of misery and pain along the way.
And [Bbm] she cried, _ _ _ _ _ no I'm [Abm] not in there, [G] _ _ [Bbm] _ no I'm not [Eb] in me.
_ [Ab] Nordenström grew up in a house full of music.
Her father's jazz collection was one of her earliest [D] influences.
[Ab] It was when I was about [G] 16.
_ I went to a new school, a music school, where lots of people were very much into jazz.
And so was I at the time, but I wouldn't have you.
So I mean, _ _ if I'm, the jazz influence that I've got is not from my childhood, it's from when I was a teenager.
It has been said of her style of singing that she's on silence,
but it's also a [Am] possibility that [G] people's reaction to her will be quite extreme,
either loving or hating [Gb] her very unique [Eb] sound.
_ [Bbm] _
And you smile then [Ab] sing
It's not very nice to be hated, of course. _
But it's, _ I remember the first time, _ I mean, when I realized that,
and that was just before my first record was released in Sweden.
_ That the actual moment when I realized that [G] people _ might be,
some might be very irritated and [Ab] annoyed by my voice.
And I [G] was quite depressed, [Ab] or I mean, I was surprised.
[F] _ I'd never thought about it. _
[D] And in just one hour's time, you can see [Ab] the second part of our special on Stina Nordestam,
where we talk to her about comparisons to Björk and being the reluctant pop star.
Talk to her about comparisons to [G] Icelandic singer Björk,
and her preference towards keeping a [Db] low profile.
_ _ _ _ _ _
The comparisons between [Ab] Stina Nordestam and Björk have started to filter through already.
But so far, the only thing they have in common is video director Michelle Gondry,
who is responsible [A] for the award-winning human behavior clip for the Icelandic [Am] Pixie,
and the video for Stina's new single, [C] Little Star.
_ [Gm]
I think she's good, so in a way it's [F]
something,
but _ [C] I don't think that our music have a lot in common. _ _ _
Definitely not. _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
_ I love the song [Gm] extremely.
It took me a very short [F] time.
It [C] was, _ _ [Bb] things like that is always very, [F] feels very [C]
healthy.
You [Bb] feel very rich when you do things like that.
[G] _ _ _ [C] _
And [Bb] it was, [D] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ it's about a [C] suicide, I think. _
I'm not sure what I think. _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [D] _ [Bb] _ _
Nordestam's own Little Star [F] looks very bright,
but she's [C] graduated with flying [Bb] colors from the school of reluctant pop star,
not wanting to [F] do many interviews and [C] preferring not to play live.
[Bb] I've been sort of concentrating on my [F] _ writing,
[C] and it doesn't [Bb] feel natural not to sort of be [F] planning the live part [C] of it.
The musical [F] business, [Bb] everything is so set,
_ [F] so it's very easy to sort [C]
of _ _ [Bb] be doing things [C] different,
and _ to be [Bb] _ _ _ _
regarded [F] as difficult.
