Lykke Li, Youth Novels
Having wanted to release album before her 20th birthday, this Swedish singer/songwriter managed to realise her ambitions shortly afterwards, at the tender age of 22. Lykke Li Zachrisson may have already come to your attention through MySpace or an entrancing appearance on Jools Holland’s Later... TV show earlier this year, and this solid debut album lives up to the promising groundwork.
Lykke Li sings her catchy pop confections in a breathy, girlish voice that falls somewhere between her angst-filled compatriot Stina Nordenstam on effective anti-depressants and the candy-flavoured bleat of Altered Images' Clare Grogan.
Her youthful optimism and vulnerability are offset by mentor, producer and co-writer Björn Yttling’s sparse, minimalist arrangements of piano, keyboard drones, rippling acoustic guitar, inventive percussion and electronica. The occasional use of atmospheric trumpet and sax also suggests the influence of Norwegian nu jazzers like Nils Petter Molvaer.
If there’s a potentially for a major hit on the album, it has to be the metronomic, infectiously hummable single Little Bit – a great new example of the emotional conflict which 10cc and Smokey Robinson lyrically documented so well.
Although it’s more of a grandiose ballad, the pulsing, hypnotic Tonight has an equally catchy chorus. And while Everybody But Me convincingly plumbs the depths of adolescent insecurity, the deadpan, robotic delivery on Complaint Department shows Lykke has a sense of humour, as well as a love of vintage electro, something that's also apparent on Breaking It Up.
OK, so I'm Good, I'm Gone appears to borrow a substantially from Allen Toussaint's Working In A Coalmine, and some might find the little-girl-lost vocal mannerisms and melodrama of Time Flies a little overdone. But overall, the standard of song writing is high, the sequencing instills a sense of emotional narrative, and Yttling’s imaginatively varied settings furnish a stylish and engaging showcase for this novel youth.

Heather Mills - Mills Broken Promises To Disabled Woman
HEATHER MILLS has reneged on a promise to donate $20,000 (GBP10,000) to a disabled Russian woman to pay for a pair of artificial legs.
In 2004, Mills - the ex-wife of former Beatle Sir Paul MCCartney - told mother-of-one Maria Rybkina she would help to fund the cost of the prosthetics after losing her legs in a tragic train accident.
But Mills, who lost her own leg in a motorcycle accident in 2003, has failed to honour her promise - forcing the 28-year-old to take to the streets of Moscow to beg for money.
Rybkina can now walk again thanks to the fundraising efforts of British couple Robin and Inna Barratt - but the Barratts are furious with Mills' false promises.
Recalling a phone call they received from Mills herself after they wrote in to the Heather Mills Health Trust, a charity for amputees, Robin says, "She said brightly, 'Hello, this is Heather Mills-MCCartney.' We spoke for a long time.
"Heather said she would personally get Maria some really good artificial legs, which would cost around GBP5,000 ($10,000), and cosmesis - the silicone cosmetic covering - which would be another GBP5,000.
"She promised she would also provide all the medical support needed to get her walking again. She told us that because her charity only helped victims of landmines, she would support Maria from her own personal finances."
But Mills' vows failed to materialise, and the Barratts made up the cash needed for Rybkina's prosthetics by donating $4,000 (GBP2,000) of their own money, as well as holding various fundraisers.
Robin adds: "Heather rang us and emailed us repeatedly with promises to pay for Maria's legs. But every single promise she made fell flat. In the end, she never did anything at all.
"At first we thought she was a really sincere person. But all her big promises came to nothing. It was shocking behaviour."
