Free Music Notes for Ensam
Free Music Review: Frida is actually 'not bad', very impressive, 'alone' (ensam)
Hit: 4 Stars
Frida(or Annifrid)Lyngstad, recorded this album in 1975, just before the onset of ABBAmania (which really first ignited in Australia in late 1975 and then spread like wildfire throughout the rest of the world.
A smooth choice of mostly covers, this album features the diversity and versatility of Frida's 'wondrous' voice.
Many of us have heard the ABBA version of 'Fernando', but there's something very moving about Frida's solo version in Swedish. Listening to this, one can easily picture her standing on some hill alone, crying out to Fernando.
Her funky, black roots, dance version of Gary Pucket and the Union Gap's 'Young Girl' would fit in any party background music. Other stand out tracks include "Liv Pa Mars"/David Bowie's 'Life on Mars'(listen for the dramatic stringed orchestra ending - mind blowing), Skulle Di Va Skont'/Beach Boys' 'Wouldn't It Be Nice'(more fun)and "Var Ar Min Clown"/Sondheim's 'Send In The Clowns'). Her performance of 10CC's "Wall Street Shuffle" (Guld Och Grona Angar) once again displays Frida's mischevious side. Perhaps the most surprising track on this album, which showcases the voice that is 'Frida Alone' is the cover, 'Ett Liv i Solen'/'Anima Mia'. Full of passion and longing, this performance without a doubt, outdoes its Italian counterpart with all it's highs, lows and range of dynamics. If not, she certainly does the song justice. Enjoy!
Ensam Poster
The Swedish-language Frida Ensam (Frida Alone), produced by fellow ABBA member Benny Andersson, was originally issued in 1975. The album was a domestic number one smash at the time of its original release and contains Frida's Swedish versions of songs such as David Bowie's 'Life On Mars?', The Beach Boys' 'Wouldn't It Be Nice' and Stephen Sondheim's 'Send In The Clowns'. The album also features Frida's original version of 'Fernando', which was actually released before ABBA's English version became an international hit. The new CD release of Frida Ensam includes two bonus tracks that originally appeared on Frida's first Polar single in 1972, 'Man vill ju leva lite dessemellan' and 'Ska man skratta eller gråta'.
