Today’s track: La Belle Epoque by Kent 🎵

Share a song that perfectly captures longing.

This song stirs up longing in two directions. It came out while I was living in Thailand, and back then, hearing it made me think about everything I missed from home in Sweden. But now, when I hear it, I find myself dreaming about my time in Thailand instead.

So yeah, it’s kind of a “the grass is always greener on the other side” song in my library.

Today’s track: It Was Supposed to Be So Easy by The Streets 🎵

What’s a song you associate with your biggest mistake?

This great song, I can associate with just about every mistake I’ve ever made. I think a lot of people can relate to the chorus – that sometimes, the best decision would’ve been to not decide or act at all. Just sit still in the boat until the storm has passed.

Today’s track: Time Has Told Me by Nick Drake 🎵

What song makes you want to write poetry?

I could’ve picked any song by Nick Drake — one of my absolute favorite artists. Every song is like a beautiful poem.

Today’s track: Don’t Give Up (feat. Kate Bush) by Peter Gabriel 🎵

Share a song that captures the feeling of being brave.

For today’s prompt I’m going with this beautiful classic. Don’t give up — that’s what it all comes down to. There’s so much bravery and wisdom in those words.

Today’s track: Do-Ther-Tum (Doo Doo Doo) by Job 2 Do 🎵

What song makes you feel like you’re in a different country?

This is a song you often hear in Thailand. Every time I hear it, no matter where in the world I am, it brings me back to this beautiful country.

Today’s track: Stay Alive by José González 🎵

What’s a song you’d want to hear while watching the sunrise?

Such a beautiful song! I like almost every song by this Swedish artist.

Hold you close till the morning light
In the morning, watch the new day rise
