Song history: a meeting was organized in Stockholm to select titles to record and release - contributions to include Linn and Jenny and votes coming from Mega as well as companies representing Mega and AOB outside Scandinavia. Each AOB member was to present their songs and a voting crowd to assess songs and then vote in AOB's presence. That's when Jenny presented "Ravine" very summarily but few in attendance liked it at first. It was however agreed on the basis of "we owe it to Jenny" to have it in. Had the song been with a different set of lyrics, it would have been nixed! Last on stage so to speak was Linn that came with a 4-track cassette recorder to present her home-made tracks while the other members had studio recordings ready for release. She introduced "Lapponia" with a long speech about the conditions of the Lapp people used to migrating back and forth on a seasonal basis. Their territory had been subdivided between Sweden, Norway and Finland while Lapps had no word in this and weren't citizens of any nation but their own. A very political subject! Comments were to the tune of "politics do not belong in Pop music". I loved it instantly but was the only one to cast a positive vote. If she had played the song without explaining all about Lapps, the song would have made it... Later on, I started my playback version hoping that Linn would record "Lapponia" as a solo artist. By then, she had left AOB to all causes and effects implied in such a drastic move and all I got was a lawyer's response to notify that she had no intention to stay in the music biz. If someone wishes to record it, a playback of Linn's guitar version is still available.
@@ricojohn8249 yes, her siblings got on her nerves. They all wanted to be stars while trying to dim the light of the real star Linn. They made her feel guilty about the attention she was receiving. When she got fed up and withdrew from the group and music they all had their chance and failed miserably without her. The only one still running around with a pulse is Jenny who people only pay attention too when she's trying to sing Linn's old songs. What's she's doing now with her life who knows. When she left the group AoB had already faded from popularity mainly because Linn reduced her role in the group as lead singer plus Jonas and Ulf's music was outdated. If you listen to Lapponia here you'll see this is an entirely new sound far different from AoB and also current with other music on the radio at that time. This is Linn being Linn and it's brilliant. No doubt this would have charted if released but it never went anywhere because she left. They made up so many stories,excuses and reasons for Linn's departure. Truth is she clearly she loved making music but didn't want to make music with her siblings because she surpassed them but at the same time didn't want to step on their toes because they're family. So she just bowed and made her exit entirely. I bet she probably has racks of songs she recorded and wrote on her own over the years just sitting in her house never to be heard.
@@187onasimp Didn't expect to see you here as well, but I wish you'd stop speculating and insulting the rest of the band. It's fine to love and miss Linn (so do I), but it doesn't have to come at the expense of the rest of them. We fell in love with the quartet. Pretending like they pushed her out is ridiculous and against not just common sense, but everything they've all said.
In my idea, now the world needs linn more than 90's There is so many wars and bad news in the world now and linn can help people by her art, magic voice and peaceful message (in my imaginations, i see Malin as UN Ambassador for Peace) 💐 what a beautiful wish
I absolutely love their old stuff and the Tech Noir Days. Just imagine what a dream it would be if they also had the "Tech Noir" project going on along side "Ace of Base" the entire time throughout the years, so the former side would represent the more darker, gothic / techno / industrial theme. I would have loved to see how that would have blossomed for many years, because whatever style they do, it always will blow you away!
Esta canción la escribió Linn y la grabó ella sola como una demo,no entiendo que pongan imágenes de los otros miembros de la banda si no participan en el tema,¿o si colaboraron en los coros?La de Everytime it rains creo que si la grabó sola en unos estudios de Noruega cuando Davis dijo que tenía que ser ella la que la cantase,realmente la cantó de forma insuperable y se la nota muy triste cantando,por eso quedó tan bien.
J'adore cette chanson ! Je la fais écouter à ma fille Victoria elle a presque 9 ans et je lui dis tu vois il faut préserver le chalet du père Noël. Du coup elle est écolo à fond 😁
It wasn't easy to do and sorry about a late feedback. The cassette demo was severely equalized to bring out Malin's voice while I added guitar parts and some synths. The intent was to make it sound rocky and nasty given the subject of her song.
It doesn't really sound like an Ace of Base song. I would expect it from the likes of Sinead O'Connor. Amazing song nevertheless, eye opening for any AoB fan. An impeccable production showcasing Linn's maturity and sensitivity beyond pop music.

Jeez I Linn's voice sounds more beautiful than ever in this song i love it!!!
we miss you, please come back, Poland will never forget you
Miss you.. your voice is MAGIC!!
Linn Berger, lo mejor de Ace of Base.
A great song, she has one of the best storytelling voices
You will always catch my eyes the way you caught my ears all the years

Claes, I (and probably more than just me) would be interested to hear the guitar version, if you have it available.
Do you know the reason why Lynn left the music business and ace of base? and do you have a guitar version?
Such a haunting song... For an audience member to me it explains how the simple life can be corrupted..
Much love to you Malin

Would be awesome
She would be a great gothic singer.
I think the same. I thought it was a Darkwave or Gothic rock song!
She's just a amazing singer no matter what she sings! ;O)
That woman could do anything she sets her mind to.
Excellent!!!
awesome
⭐🇧🇷⭐ Viva ao Ace of Base! 👏🏻👍🏻👏🏻 Viva à Lapónia! ⭐🇧🇷⭐
Brilliant. I am seeing unicorns and faeries.
beautiful song showing clearly she was a real artist. How different it was from the album Jonas and Buddha made with new cheeks in 2010...
I love it
Thanx!!GREAT!!
Drága Malinn...
Well recreated! Thanks a million!
This is freakin genius😮
Oh Linn....
this song is psychedelic love it clu

Красиво
It sounds so different from other songs Linn sang
Why Linn? WHY DID YOU LEAVE US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
😢😢😢
like this very much.
Hi everybody . Do you have any news about Linn ?
Who made this version? Great to hear - much more listenable than the demo
It wasn't easy to do and sorry about a late feedback. The cassette demo was severely equalized to bring out Malin's voice while I added guitar parts and some synths. The intent was to make it sound rocky and nasty given the subject of her song.
Greatly remastered!
Linn recorded in a simple recorder...it´s a demo..
Claes Cornelius I can't believe this didn't make it to the final cut. Superb edit, sir. Thanks much.
If only...
Wow! Stunning job! Her voice sounds so good here! The guitars are awesome~
I have one ding, and it's technical:
The vocal would be better served brought more forward in the mix.
Something that can yet be addressed.
It doesn't really sound like an Ace of Base song. I would expect it from the likes of Sinead O'Connor. Amazing song nevertheless, eye opening for any AoB fan. An impeccable production showcasing Linn's maturity and sensitivity beyond pop music.
Linn❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💕💕💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💋💋💋💋💋
Btw,This is not AOB but Malin Berggren solo!!
It is Ace of Base. This was recorded for The Bridge and rejected. And it was rejected for the third album as well. I can hear why.
@@Sgureghian Enlighten us.
BTW, could it be the song is more about POLICY than Politics? There is a distinction. The policy argument has some merit.
@@RedArrow73as a big ace fan.... This song is musically very unimpressive
Exist another version of this song???
NO,she just recorded a demo not even this melody was used...
ua-cam.com/video/1fa967XJDM0/v-deo.html
This version is great, would like the vocals brought up a bit (though that may just be my preference), though given the source material, it's great!
Which they did more
