http://giveupnowmusic.blogspot.com/2008/10/norwegian-popstrel-annie-has-recently.html
Saturday, 11 October 2008. Annie - Norwegian Pop Goddess! Has recently allowed a track to be leaked (legally! The eagerly-anticipated Two of Hearts, a cover of the song by Stacy Q. Annie's version is produced by her partner-in-crime, Richard X, and though it's still pretty good, the song seems to lose something in translation. Obviously, Annie's record company are hoping that she'll follow her fellow Scandinavian and ' do a Robyn. With the help of hitmakers Xenomania. I Can't Let Go.

Sunday, 21 September 2008. 160;might not technically fit into the Electro category, personally I consider them to be more Punk-funk or Disco-not-Disco. One thing is for sure though, the band really do churn out some great tracks. If you recognise the name already, it might be because of their club smash Kinda New.
