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

Posted on October 12, 2011 | Leave a comment

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.

The link to the original article (in Swedish) is here:

Posted on October 9, 2011 | Leave a comment

On Saturday, Peter appeared on the TV4 program Nyhetsmorgon and performed two songs – the single “Jag har dig nu” (but sans Izabella) and “Häromdan när jag var ung” (better known as “Yesterday When I Was Young” or “Hier Encore”, the Charles Aznavour standard).

Scandipop have given Peter another excellent write up and have links to both performances.

Posted on September 20, 2011 | 2 comments

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.
