Moving On: Sweden’s Annie Öster finds the strength deep within to close the painful chapter on ‘For Your Sake’

Posted on 17 April 2021

Breaking away from being held underground for far too long, Annie Öster is ready for the next journey to find her true peace, as she unties herself to flourish like never before on ‘For Your Sake‘.

Annie Öster is a sensationally courageous Stockholm, Sweden indie pop singer-songwriter/pianist, who after ten years of being away from performing live, found the strength to beat the performance anxiety demons, to now fly free unshackled and doing what she loves.

You feel her strength inside the music she beautifully sings, the horrific covid-19 pandemic helped change her thinking as she realized that life is too short, to be locked inside any longer with someone she gave so much for but got very little back from. When you find that elusive key and never let it go, you feel like you are in a new world and you know that this is the right place for you to flourish like a butterfly roaming in delightful innocence.

‘For Your Sake‘ from the brave Stockholm singer-songwriter/pianist Annie Öster, is the story that sets you away from the pain inside as it builds and builds, breaking you for a while until you decide to be happy again. Being stuck in the quicksand of the past only holds you back, until you take that step to be in your own path again, not tied to anyone else’s selfish trail anymore.

Levina Lye is here with a real song all about using your ‘Intuition’

Posted on 22 September 2020

Levina Lye is here with a real song all about using your ‘Intuition‘ and never losing this basic instinct to survive this crazy world of love.

Written & produced by Levina herself, this is a soulful song that has beautiful R&B vibrations, with a whole bunch of sassy soul to get those ears wide awake.

You love this person so much but something is telling you to be careful. You are listening to your head but your heart is taking you to a different place. With so much love to give, you want this so bad but don’t know what to do now. You know you should be careful as you don’t fully know their intentions yet.

With a voice of a kind angel, I love how Levina is so calm with her delivery. This is not about trying to sing crazy high notes, she keeps it so soulfully pure here. This quality singer is trying to see through the lies and sings with such passion. This is an intelligent woman with an intricate style that fills the air with beauty. She has been through a lot and her music is so inspiring.

‘Intuition‘ from Levina Lye is a sterling effort and the topic raises interesting points about players and people hiding what is really going on. Always follow your heart but let your head and intuition lead you through the smoke and mirrors.

Head through to hear this on Soundcloud.
