And I´m going home...

…to Sweden and leaving a very SNOWY??? Finland!! What?? hehe, luckily in my town we have spring so home and enjoy that=)

I have had a great time here in Finland and met super nice people along the way here and friends I will have forever=)

I will be back here for the final episode and cheering on whomever the finalists may be but I already am sure Jarkko will win this and he is a wonderful singer and person and his opera yesterday was surely AMAZING=) Who said a rocker couldn't sing opera?=)

At home I have so many things to do since I have been away from the university for weeks and my teacher said my first exam is already april 7 so you all know what I´ll be doing first thing tomorrow - STUDY=) And I look forward to that, I love to have my routines, go to the gym and so on. As fun as the crazy music scene is I need the safety and less crazy days in my life to get a balance. Life is fun when its not crazy too=)

Thanks for everyone who has voted for me in the show and for the support! to be a Swede and being here for half the programme, 5 weeks, is amazing and I heard many say yesterday they think I am f-cking brave for doing it and yes, I was so scared accepting this challenge and its been hard but I went out as a winner in my own eyes and I got to sing opera and that was the thing I really wanted to do so thanks and kiitos Suomi=)

LOVE and LIGHT!

2 years ago my life once again was blessed with a little boy=)

He came as a light and brightened my world. He made me complete and I am so blessed to have 3 healthy lovely boys I have given birth to. I never thought I´d have so many children but now when I have them I wish I had started earlier and gotten 7=)

Mio, my dearest little boy - you are a sunshine! You have been happy and positive since you came to this world and I wish that happiness and light will be there all your life=)

Love you to the moon and back and ten million more travels!

Me the day before he came to our world=)

Love making a mess;=)

Opera and opera and some more opera=)

Hi all,

I can't with words tell you how much I love being at home=) The saying is so true that no matter if its nice to be away, the best place is at home!


And I am now fully concentrated on opera this week and its by far the best week in my opinion! Even if its scary to sing opera when not being an opera singer its so fun to try and do it! And after my lesson with opera manager Lilly I have decided to start and take singing lessons again for fun. Its just so amazing to learn more and get an input on the classical voice and I haven't had those kinda lessons since I was 22 years so 20 years ago=) But never to late to learn more as a singer!

While being at home I am also going to interviews for a summer job since I need to earn money in the summer  and I need to get Mio some gifts for his b-day tomorrow and bake a cake! So lots of opera practice and also some mother stuff to do while home=)

Love and light!
Anette

More fun than all the other weeks=) I actually changed my opera yesterday in the last minute to my favourite one and I am so happy I´ll sing Rinaldo´s Laschia ch´io pianga. 
Love it!

A life change

Hi all=)

I feel I am in a life change and I don't know if its that I am aging, the full moon, the earth changing or what but I have felt for some time that I am changing. And for a long time I´ve also wanted to change my hair and how I see upon myself and today I dared to go and cut of the hair!=) Cause its only hair!

I will not get used to it until some days, it normally takes a week for a new hair cut to feel good so I give it some time but I feel so happy I dared to do it and to do something so new and different and I feel I needed it! No extensions, off with the damaged hair and hey, welcome fresh healthy hair that can glow and be vibrant and show that I am 43 years old and proud of it!

Tomorrow I fly home to Sweden and I can't tell you how much I long to come home!!! I want to kiss my sons and my husband, sleep in my own bed, eat my healthy food, go to FNF and exercise and meet my mum, my friends and see Helsingborg.

I don't know how it will feel to fly back here again saturday, but I hope I can say goodbye from my home and have new energy for yet another sunday.

I know one thing now after these weeks: I do NOT like competitions and dislike it a lot!

Love and light!
Anette

SHINE single is finally out in Itunes=)


Go buy it please and let´s SHINE together in this world
Love and light!


Puh - finally that country week is over….


So finally that country week is over, puh and we move forward to opera. I didn't feel at all happy about tonights song, my performance and so on so I was really disappointed afterwards and still are and its very hard when you don't feel comfortable in the song they give you and so on. And I was sure I´d be sent home so a shock when I didn't. 

But I will fly home to Sweden some days cause my kids need me and I need my home so Suomi, see you again sunday! (if I get back again, who knows?) maybe Sweden kidnaps me and won't let me go back here again…haha!

Love and light from the non-country girl=)

And 4th week here in Finland...

…and i can't believe I'm still here since I counted with being out first week!

So that make me a bit torned and so on, since my children and Johan went home to sweden monday and its so extremely empty and lonely here=(

Luckily I have new friends in Krista and Waltteri who keep me company and make me feel happier and tonight I´m going to see Waltteri at the Opera house and its my very first time I see an opera so really fun!

Today I´ve been at home just sleeping a lot cause I am really worn out and then now in the afternoon been practicing this weeks country song and dancing and boy, its hard to both sing and dance! I´m impressed with for instance Beyoncé cause damn, the breathing and moving thing is HARD!!!

Love and light from Helsinki,

On sunday its the finnish theme week=)

Hi all and hello from Helsinki=)


My 3rd week here in the beautiful but a bit cold Helsinki in Finland and I must say me and the boys have come to peace here and learned so much about Helsinki. Johan has been to every single playground in the whole city and I´ve taken every single tram ride there is=) 

So now I feel more at home here and am so happy that I was voted to stay one more week here, since the song I´m performing on sunday is one of the most beautiful I´ve heard or sung ever. 


Its called Myrskyluoden Majja and is a love story about Majja and Janne who live in the archipelago of Finland. I am so honored and happy to sing this song and since its Johan´s mothers all time favourite I´ll  sing it on sunday and hope she loves it=)


IF I move forward to the coming weeks, next week is a great country week and I have a great funny song AND then the week after its finally the OPERA week!


So if you want to hear me do those genres (the opera song is such a pretty one), vote for me on sunday=)

Love and light,
Anette

ENJOY!


Regarding my single SHINE

So you know: my single SHINE were promised by Ear music to be in iTunes last friday march 6th but they have not done this so I am sorry for this. No one to blame but the record label Ear music and I think its sad for those who wanted it but shame on them.
Let´s enjoy the video for now but I am really disappointed that they can't do what they promise.

Love and light!

New hair cut and color today with Simo at Noir Concept=)

My hair didn't look so good, it was to long and the color wasn't so nice so I decided to cut it quite a bit and Simo at Noir Concept here in Helsinki made the whole hair more sandy blonde. I love it and after TÄHDET TÄHDET I am gonna cut my hair real short…hehe!







My video and single SHINE featured in todays Helsingborgs Dagblad

My video is today featured in my local newspapers Helsingborgs dagblad´s blog about entertainment that is written by Stefan Lindqvist who made a big and nice interview with me last year for the release of my album=)

Go check it out and thanks to Stefan for publishing it=)

My advices to any new artist or musician

Hi all,

Today I want to write a warning and a good advice to those who might someday go in to the music business. 

NEVER sign a deal without having someone who knows the business to help you see if it an ok deal. And no, not a manager someone from the outside.

I have signed deals without even getting to read all the pages and have had people around me saying; no worries, we´ve checked it and its ok.
NO- doesn't matter if its your management who says that - YOU need to be careful with what you sign!!

And if you sign a management deal - do NOT sign for a deal where you have to pay that person more than 15% and NEVER sign so that you have to pay that person a sun goes down deal- which means they shall have percentage even years after your deal is over!

And if you are a songwriter - NEVER sign a deal so that someone who helps you get the songs out get 50% of the songs, no matter what they say they can do for you. I don't have this problem but know other who has these deals and its just crazy.

AND always make sure you have a deal with the people you work for, that is if your in a band - a deal for how long the contact period will last, how to terminate the deal in forehand and how all incomes shall be paid even if you are fired beforehand. -Never trust anyone cause when money is involved everyone only cares about themselves.

I know this is boring things to read and especially to have to deal with, cause myself I HATE business and money and so on, but I wish someone had helped me with this so I hadn't have to deal with people stealing my money for deals I´ve signed before I knew more. And music should be about fun and the one who does the work should have the money, not someone who stands on the side doing plain nothing. 

So be careful, and take help before signing ANY deal!

Love and light,
Anette

This week its PUNK in TÄHDET TÄHDET=)

Here´s my performances in TÄHDET TÄHDET tonight=)

Here´s my Backstreet boys performance: And our opening act - Spice Girls "Wannabee"=):

Almost a week here in Helsinki now=)

Huomenta Suomi and Good morning rest of the world=)

So, almost a week has now gone since me and my boys moved over to stay here in Suomi for some weeks. Its been a bit of a hassle to get Mio to sleep in the nights and last night was the first night he wasn't up for 2 hours so we finally got some sleep…thank God for that!=)

This week I´ve done one day of dance rehearsals and insert shot with the famous singer Sani and then we had a big rehearsal day on thursday for tonights live show with TÄHDET TÄHDET. I was so nervous for the cameras and so on but everyone is so nice and helpful so it all loosened up after a while.

All artists are such nice persons and I take this as a fun thing to learn from. Nothing serious but fun to sing different genres and even do some small steps. I don't dance that much since singing is my main thing but of course I move some to the dancers without hopefully crashing in to them=)

Today is a long day and I´ll leave in some hours and then we start with band rehearsals, then dress rehearsals and then the live show starts finnish time at 19.15 in MTV3.

I hope you´ll have fun watching me do Backstreet boys since I enjoy it myself and rock that song the Anette way=)

Hep Hep everyone and love from Helsinki!
