Cold Wars 04:24
Frosted lights shimmer across the plains Dried out tundra and people in pain …no sun or rain Mother lies stroking to ease the strain Givin’ birth without someone to aid, Because she has to wait… Freeze the nation we want to get off Somethin’s goin’ very wrong Freeze the nation and pull out all the stops Until the madness pops Frosted lights shimmer across the plains Dried out tundra and people in pain … no sun or rain Helpless child crying for food in vain People dying from famine today Because it’s just too late… Freeze the nation we want to get off Somethin’s goin’ very wrong Freeze the nation and pull out all the stops Until the madness pops Freeze the nation we want to get off Somethin’s goin’ very wrong Freeze the nation and pull out all the stops Until the madness pops Freeze the nation and pull out all the stops Until the madness pops Freeze the woooooorld!!!

Illusions 04:37
Illusions, falling down from trees above my head Lookin’ around from flowers to holes in the ground Sweet fragile child turned around in your mind Without peace, resting your head on a leaf, collecting your dreams There’s a story of a young blond light, morning night He’s not in between, it seems Where have we been these faded years? When we were together, no more together Free illusions, you cannot make them go away this time Resting your head on my shoulders collecting your dreams Survive little boy, singing so tender of love Still looking around from flowers to holes in the ground It’s a story of a young gone mind, morning night, he’s not in between…it seems Where have you been, these faded years, now we are together, we’re still together There’s a story of a young blond light, morning night He’s not in between… it seems Where have we been, these faded years, when we were together, we were always together There’s a story of a young blond light…

Start on a notion Setting things in motion While dreaming of a status high Time is passing by Closed off and full of hate Her mind’s blocking what she creates Painful bouts to concentrate She realizes that her plans might die REF: She wants to be the only Diva in his life The only voice to be heard Through his chords and reverbs She wants to be the only Diva in his life The only voice to be heard Through his chords and reverbs She wants to be the only Diva in his life The only voice to be heard Through his chords and reverbs The mind the mind the mind The mind the mind the mind is clearer Fear of his rejection Deepened her reflection Breathing in the joys of life Enjoying days and nights Opened and wide awake The mind is as clear as a lake Whirling all ideas around Till the perfect melody is found REF: She wants to be the only Diva in his life The only voice to be heard Through his chords and reverbs She wants to be the only Diva in his life The only voice to be heard Through his chords and reverbs She wants to be the only Diva in his life The only voice to be heard Through his chords and reverbs She wants to be the only Diva in his life The only voice to be heard Through his chords and reverbs The mind the mind the mind

Saviour 04:50
Searching in the silence of the night Finding no one that could satisfy my hunger Heroes may not be so hard to find Yet in my memory you’re more than that to me Places that I’ve been but never seen before Total strangers make me miss you more than ever I know that I’ll see you when you arrive But just like lovers we will never be the same Mix with crouds Talkin to them They give me nothin’ Now I just keep loosin all my sleep Once again I’m searching for my Saviour Two this time maybe three Will help me keep the pain away I have never told you how it was And I see how you pretend that you don’t care How we used to talk about the truth We sometimes need our secrets to keep ourselves alive Mix with crouds Talkin to them They tell me nothin’ Now I just keep loosin all my sleep Once again I’m searching for my Saviour Two this time maybe three Will help me keep the pain away Searching in the silence of the night Mix with crouds Talkin to them They show me nothin’ Now I just keep loosin all my sleep Once again I’m searching for my Saviour Two this time maybe three Will help me keep the pain away Mix with crouds Talkin to them They show me nothin’ Now I just keep loosin all my sleep Once again I’m searching for my Saviour Two this time maybe three Will help me keep the pain away Searching in the silence of the night

Tell Me 04:53
Someone said this destination is wrong, I could not see your eyes I’m too far gone If I could reach you what would you say, (what would you say?) That this is just another perfect day (a perfect day) Tell me if you want me, to wake you up tomorrow Tell me all about the, places without sorrow Mend my tired heart; give me signs about the future Lead me inside, where the dreams are never haunted Now it’s time to spend another day Take you with me to my special place It’s time to change reality (reality) This is the place I want to be (I want to be) Tell me if you want me, to wake you up tomorrow Tell me all about the, places without sorrow Mend my tired heart; give me signs about the future Lead me inside, where the dreams are never haunted

Red Lips 04:55
Red lips, say hello, outside the café Walking, into the, shelter from the rain, Raincoat, finds an empty chair to dry on Red lips, steal the first kiss of the day Lovers make the time go by, too quickly They can hear the goodbye music playin’ Coffee in the cup forgot to be hot’ Gold ring grabs the coat and runs away Empty chair alone under the table top Lover by the door, lets in the rain Ripples in the, puddle count, his footsteps Café feels an, empty, silent pain Waiter clears the, cups from, lonely tables Pink lips, stops a taxi, for a ride Lipstick tries to hide away the café kisses Red lips pay the driver, then sigh Coffee in the cup forgot to be hot’ Gold ring grabs the coat and runs away Empty chair alone under the table top Lover by the door, lets in the rain Coffee in the cup forgot to be hot’ Gold ring grabs the coat and runs away Empty chair alone under the table top Lover by the door, lets in the rain Coffee in the cup forgot to be hot’ Gold ring grabs the coat and runs away Empty chair alone under the table top Lover by the door, lets in the rain Lover by the door Lover by the door Lover by the door

Catch the midnight train staring at the sunset, playing in my mind I’m talkin’ to my friends; they disappear behind the mountain line And it’s a fine day Stranger on the phone, he takes my hand and says you’re not alone He promised he would call me whenever loneliness takes control And it’s fine day and someone calls my name I hear them everyday; they tell me not to stay I’m lookin’ after holes, someone to fill my roles; it’s time to take control “Midnight train, Saw you on TV, fell into a dream, or into a nightmare” Lookin’ through the window, I can almost taste the rain My friends are coming back; they smile and say it’s time to celebrate That it’s a fine day and someone calls my name I hear them everyday; they tell me not to stay I’m lookin’ after holes, someone to fill my roles; it’s time to let it go It’s time to let it go! And it’s a fine day ….It’s a fine day ….it’s a fine day

Planet 03:32
Dreamin’ of a secret town Where the city signs don’t wear a frown They believe in love, and because of love… it’s even more … for everyone Sitting in the garden of, this special place I’m dreaming of And when you speak to me, I do not hear a sound It’s even more, quiet than before REF: This is the planet where we live We are the people who believe … in everything This is the planet where we live And we’re the people believing everything I believe that love’s the key but it’s difficult to set it free And to spread the news, around the world, and make love …the king of it all! Walking in the secret park, the air is filled with little sparks And there’s a humming sound that goes around It fills my head … I must be dead REF: This is the planet …

She's Gone 05:15
She’s waiting in the hallways; she knows she’s passing through here somewhere everyday She knows her name but cannot speak, she’s taking pictures, but lately she’s been out of it She’s gone; her memories keep haunting all her dreams She’s gone; she knows she’s on the edge of sanity She’s tempted by a little box, and then again, afraid her dreams won’t stop (Tomorrow maybe not so blind) In her mind she’s still confused, she never gives herself a chance to lose (Tomorrow may not come around) She’s gone; her memories keep haunting all her dreams She’s gone; she knows she’s on the edge of sanity She’s gone; her memories keep haunting all her dreams She’s gone; she knows she’s on the edge of sanity She’s gone; her memories keep haunting all her dreams She’s gone; she’s counting numbers backwards till she sleeps She’s gone, she’s gone, she’s gone, she’s gone…

Dangerous 04:50
I sometimes wonder, when people ask me, how you do? And without you, I don’t do at all And it’s so easy just pretending nothings new, I drink at night, I cannot sleep at all Dangerous, danger, that’s how it feels without you, Dangerous, danger, that’s how it feels to be alone The secret I’ve been keeping is still in the safest place, The keys are lost, in chaos deep inside And you still treat me like it’s been a hundred years, like nothing’s changed, nothing’s changed at all Dangerous, danger, that’s how it feels without you, Strangers call, strangers, they never stay and understand Dangerous, danger, I cannot sleep without you, Dangerous, danger, that’s how it feels to be alone Dangerous, danger, that’s how it feels without you, Strangers call, strangers, they never stay and understand Dangerous, danger, that’s how it feels without you, Dangerous, danger, that’s how it feels to be alone

Celebration time for the dirty men of honor Celebration days for the happy undertaker And the rich are still getting fatter Is there still hope for us to get better? Celebration days for the happy little children Tell them lies and stories of the life we plan to give them We will give you a place by your mother But soon you’ll grow some beautiful flowers In the garden of stone Your own flower In the garden of stone A lonesome flower in the garden of stone Your own flower In the garden of stone A lonesome flower in the garden of stone We fight for more space and the greedy get stronger This place’s too small for us to live like we were brothers and sisters And do we still have faith in each other? When your best friend becomes your own killer …and puts you in the garden of stone A lonesome flower in the garden of stone Your own flower In the garden of stone A lonesome flower in the garden of stone Your own flower… …With the ones you love Doesn’t seem to ever change Maybe we’re better off this way In the garden of stone Your own flower In the garden of stone A lonesome flower in the garden of stone Your own flower In the garden of stone A lonesome flower beside the ones you love...

It's a Fine Day, cool album of the day, fab review
- coolalbumreview.com?p=34092

"Together these two forces have created a powerful, atmospheric, mood-inducing album full of ambient electroscapes, pop infused melodies, and soulful grooves that leave you feeling uplifted and lighter on your feet. Also be prepared to bust a few moves as this music has a tendency to takeover your muscles and cause them to start moving involuntarily."
-- joshua smotherman / middel tennesee music --

""Tell Me" dips into acid jazz, before soaring back up into a lush topography of digital percussion. The most dance propelled moments comes on "Savior", a song with harmonies that almost remind you of the disco glory days of the early 80's. A futuristic portrait of dance is projected on "Red Lips" which maintains some New Wave, but fully upgraded and cyber infused. The title track glistens in the glimmer of night, as chill wave is married to a more driving beat to create a sensual combustion of the two elements."

"This is one of the more innovative edm releases I have heard this year, Solheim doesn't dumb down any element or go for a lo-fi retro feel on the production, showing confidence in what he has crafted here, just as Blaunenfeldt's performance on this album is very sure of her identity and doesn't see to pay direct homage to her inspirations but celebrate the songs."
-- hiplanta.com --

"Their debut album It’s A Fine Day, is a collection of polished, urbane tunes like the icy title track, or the kinetic, off-kilter pop of “Planet,” where synths rise and fall as effects buzz and bleep about. She’s Gone” and “The Only Diva” veer in into darker territory; pumping bass and drums keep things dancefloor friendly while vaguely eerie sounds emerge from the shadows to envelope the tracks, giving thing an ethereal, intoxicating aura. Throughout, Lill-Ann Blauenfeldt’s husky, emotive vocals provide another interesting texture, injecting emotion and warmth in contrast to the often chilly production."
