Ola Svensson - All Over The World

"Life will never treat you the same again"

While browsing through the blogs this morning, I realized that the recently relaunched PPG beat me to this track, but I'm going to post it anyway. Ola Svensson is probably my favorite male popstar of Sweden, responsible for the epic quadruple punch of Natalie, SOS, Love in Stereo and Unstoppable. Those aren't his only good tracks, but together they represent the pinnacle of commercial Swepop. He's got the perfect voice for these glossy, larger-than-life productions. And, although his new single is a more subdued, acoustic affair, this album track goes again for the huge, bombastic sound. It kicks off with massive, synthesized strings that carry on throughout the track, and build into a soaring, anthemic hook that fits nicely alongside his best work. It's a bit reminiscent of your Taio Cruzs and Jay Seans, but Ola's vocals differentiate it from current U.S. fare. The album's out in September. It feels like we've been waiting on this one forever.
