Video clip coming for “Jag har dig nu” plus a short film

Peter has revealed that there will be a video clip for the single “Jag har dig nu” and that it will be revealed soon.

Peter has also revealed that around the same time that the album is released, a short film will also be released. It has been directed by Magnus Renfors, who also directed the wonderfully cinematic clip for “Stockholm i natt”.

The director has revealed that it will be an epic drama documentary of about 20 minutes length. It is based around Peter’s French alter ego and is set in sixties France, according to an article in the Swedish newspaper, Dagens Nyheter. The film also stars Melinda Kinnaman as Peter’s childhood sweetheart, Emma Wiklund as his wife and of course, Izabella Scorupco as one of his many lovers.

New single cover

Here is a first look at the new single cover for “Jag har dig nu”. This is only a low quality version and hopefully a higher quality one will become available.

“Jag har dig nu” is written by Andreas Mattsson and is one of the three newly composed songs for the album. The song has been described as a feverish meeting between two lovers.

New single

“Jag har dig nu”, the duet with Izabella, will be the first single from Peter’s French project, “Livet, kärleken och döden”.

The song goes to Swedish radio today and will be available to buy digitally on 7 October 2011.

You can hear a 40 second clip from the song at Peter’s official site. It is the first song on the music player.

Duet with Izabella

At Peter’s official site, a 40 second clip from one of the songs from Peter’s French album has been added to the music player. The song is called “Jag har dig nu” (literal translation = “I have you now”) and is a duet with Izabella Scorupco (pictured above). Izabella is a singer/actress and is possibly best known for being a Bond girl in the movie “Goldeneye”. Izabella released an album in the 90s and had a hit with the song “I Write You A Lovesong”.

“Jag har dig nu” is the first song on the player and can be heard on both the Swedish and English versions of www.peterjoback.com.
