Not Guilty, Just Pleasure - How We Met, the Long Version

Is it a science lesson?

Is it a love song??

Does it matter? Simply, it's awesome.

Oh Jens, you clever fellow.  I know I've shared the music of Jens here before and I suspect that I shall continue to do so.

His 2017 album, "Life Will See You Now" is in my regular rotation of records I can't stop listening to.  It seems like each week, I get fixated on a different song.  For a while it was "to know your mission" and then "hotwire the ferris wheel" but recently it's been his evolutionary love song, "How We Met, the Long Version."

Nothing became something
Turned itself inside out
Subatomic particles became atoms, became stars, became galaxies
The earth's crust became solidified
The planets became perfectly aligned
Jupiter blinked with its little red ey

It's just super catchy, incredibly cute and of course super smart, just like Jens.  Enjoy xo

Not Guilty, Just Pleasure - To Know Your Mission

Jens.

Jens Lekman.

Your music is sweet and your lyrics really appeal to me.  I can listen to a song of yours on repeat for an entire day.  Not always the same song though, I mix it up quite a bit.  Like recently, I have been listening to "to know your mission" a lot.

I recently read that when he's not out touring and being a rock star, Jens is a wedding singer in his home town of Gothenburg.  I'm going to encourage all of my engaged to be married friends to consider a destination wedding in Sweden... imagine how magical your wedding would be if you had the wonderful Jens singing just for you!!

Enjoy this sweet song, I know I will... xo
