Hello Peter!

Thank you for the support and you comment. Step by step I update with more Sweden.

Here is one of the  Sagas of South Sweden. I have seen this high giant (troll, jätte). It is followed by a nice balade.

The giant in Jönköping
(Jätten I Jönköping)

Once upon a time when giants lived and ruled in Sweden, there was a giant called Vist who lived with his wife on the east side of Lake Vättern. One day they went to a family gathering on the other side of the lake. It was a jolly and exhilarating party with a lot of delicious food. When the giant Vist and his wife finally headed home Mrs Vist had gained so much weight that she doubted that she would be able to get across the lake in a single bound. Therefore, her considerate husband threw a turf of grass out into the lake so she could make it home without getting wet. And it's still there, the little flattened turf: Visingsö.

Hello Gabrielle!

Here are some facts on me and my life in Sweden. Kaleidoscope will keep you informed on everything.

MUSIC
pop stars and fans

At the nice middle 60-ies there were two big Swedish Bands, HepStars and Tages.
Most of my friends were Tages.


Is so I want to remember them 
Click above - CADILLAC by HepStars

I came to Sweden August 1965. Soon I was HEPSTARS fan. After listening to CADILLAC, this beautyful song, by HepStars, which was great succee. I decided to by my first electric guitar, I pressed my mother very much and she got crazy on me. A Gibson guitar costed a monthly salary at that time, but she baught it to me. There were two things I loved at that time, playing football and play and listen to music. Learn about HepStars (official site)

The Hep Stars song "Cadillac" performed by Tommy Körberg - aug.7th 2007 Ållsang På Skansen. Tommy Körberg is another great Swedish artist.

click above - a superb performance


LYRICS FOR CADILLAC, HEPSTARS


My baby drove up in a brand new Cadillac
My baby drove up in a brand new Cadillac
but she ain't never, ever coming back

Baby, baby, baby please
Can't you see I'm on my bended knees
Your heart's so cold it's gonna freeze

My baby drove up in a brand new, brand new Cadillac
My baby drove up in a brand new Cadillac
but she ain't never, ever coming back

yea...Cadillac, woah...Cadillac,
yea...Cadillac, ooh...Cadillac,
yea...Cadilac, ooh...CADILLAC

Happy Week End

Hello Sara!

Thank you for the bunch of flowers! I return your smile and support to Kaleidoscope with an American and a Swedish artist from 1968 in Sweden. I saw the Amerecan cowboy artist and super star at that time. I was young but I believe he was in love with the Swedish artist.
