Today I bring you a song that I have recently discovered and been obsessed about. Astrid Swan is a finnish singer-songwriter who have been compared to the likes of Joni Mitchell and Kate Bush. But from this song, Life In A Container, from her debut album Poverina (released last year in the USA) you can’t tell this. It’s a very upbeat song that drives you to sing along even if you don’t know the lyrics. She has released her sophmore album Spartan Picnic this year in Finland, but I still haven't been able to get a hold on that. Her MySpace offers other songs from her most recent album, as well as a YouTubed video of her performing Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head.
