Love was a stranger and now he's walkin' with me

Continuing to bring you old news...

Do you know who performed a new song at a concert a month ago (well, "new" if we can ignore the fact that he apparently performed it live at least three months ago for a New Year's show, making me even more behind in finding this out)?




Espen Lind!

And sure, this song ("Sweet Love") is more piano-based pop, maybe with a little gospel influence, not a "Black Sunday"/"Joni Mitchell On The Radio"/"Everything's Falling Apart"-type song like I really want him to give us again (no, I still haven't mentally adapted to the fact that's not likely), but at the moment I'm too excited to actually see some sort of new material from him to judge the song. Now if only we could get some actual hard-and-fast dates for a new album from him or something...

Statistically, I wonder
That I ever found you
'Cause you are one in a million
I'm more like one out of two

And I'm not a catch,
I don't go for much
I've been played and I've been burned
But finally it's clear to me that my luck has turned

I'm not sure whether those are Sanna-esque lyrics or the sort that make me want a junior high-type trapper to scrawl them in, but either way, NEW ESPEN LIND! I'll worry about whether or not it's a good song later.

(Note that I haven't heard that this is a single or anything; it's just a song he performed.)
