the fourth video is other people’s stories by kari rueslåtten. kari began in one of my favorite bands, the 3rd and the mortal, where she took part in the masterpiece tears laid in earth. after that album, she left the band, and eventually started to make her own albums. this is from her newest album (2005). the lyrics can be found here.
i guess this goes under pop. you can definitely listen to it.
i like it because… i just like it. a beautiful song, sang with a beautiful voice. as with most videos, i saw the video a long time after first listening to the song. and it’s one of the videos i like; it’s hard to say why though…
another of kari’s songs, which i would have put up in this place if it had a good video, would be trollferd. sung in norwegian (i think), the main part being the voice, instruments in the background growing stronger over the time, with a simple tune. just beautiful. this is one of the songs which made me decide that i should really get her solo albums.

schon pop – aber nicht der text. oder?!
das hängt vermutlich davon ab, was man nun genau unter pop versteht… es ist definitiv kein 0815-weichspüler-pop ;-)
