Johan must be one of the best gift givers ever :) He made this Sailor all out of chocolate and gave me a chocolate man on my show opening! The next one will be made out of wine...
I have a lot to do ("I don't have the time to do that now, I'll do that after the show opening...") but it is hard to start over. I could do with some music suggestions from you, have you heard anything good lately?

Jaha så min spegel var inget att ha nä nä ;)
Shitfyndigt av Johan, gott och snyggt!
Oh how sweet! Absolutely lovely.
I've had a hard time starting over, in more than one way, but the right music has helped so much. I've been listening to Elliott Smith and Handsome Furs (they're fabulous live, if you ever have the chance to see them, just go! the stage presence is enchanting), depending on the mood.
My go to channel on Pandora.com has been Kings of Leon. Sometimes a girl just needs some modern rock to get her creative mojo going.
Kaija--I'm going to check out Handsome Furs on Pandora today!
Yep, try Tunng (from London) and MUM (Iceland)...
Oh yes, this song and video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Bb8P7dfjVw
The musician is Jose Gonzalez
Hej Camilla, I can't say it enough: try the Dutch Luisterpaal: http://3voor12.vpro.nl/luisterpaal/
It has new music on it every 2 days or so, it's great to find some nice new music!
shit va fint, äter man den?? har man hjärta att... äta den? ställ den svalt va! urfin! :D :D
CéU from Brazil. I heard her song "Lenda" and was hooked:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFb5kdhSgbU
That's the album version. She also has some great live versions on youtube.com
Other favorites these days are Cat Power, Feist, Alison Kraus and Band of Horses.
hi camilla!
i ran into to you (literally) in covent garden a couple of months ago but was too surprised to say 'hi, i love your blog'. so: hi, i love your blog!
laura marling and barbara morgenstern work for me at the moment. but also allowing myself a mental break i.e. watch some mindless tv, go for a swim/walk not thinking at all. and eating chocolate -but it would be a shame to eat this one!
good luck! best,
dina
Hi Camilla,
I have a few musical suggestions to jump-start your creative mojo: Miriam Makeba, K-naan, Tinariwen, Devendra Banhart, & K-os. Good luck!

Hello! I'm listening to Au Revoir Simone at the moment and also Sufjan Stevens is always great to work to as well.

There's nothing like some new tunes to get you back in the swing of things! Currently listening to lots of Portico Quartet, le loup and wye oak.
I have a really good mix you might enjoy here:

I'm popping in again to shout the praises of the band Fleet Foxes! I don't know how I forgot to mention them before. Do you hear them in Sweden? Their self-titled album is genius.

I would suggest The XX. I listen to it a lot while working away.
My music suggestion is The Tom Fun Orchestra. I recently discovered them after viewing the Bottom Of The River music video. I am now addicted to their beautiful melodies and deeply meaningful lyrics.
