Yes, I know that the Scandic Grand Central is right near where I'll be staying in a few weeks and yes, I DO wish that they were slated to be filmed as part of the Stockholm Boat Sessions http://www.stockholmboatsessions.se/, http://www.youtube.com/user/jerrygbg Just talking out loud here, but how great would it be for there to be a video of Jennifer and Lorenzo performing like this one of Sea Lion that I posted back on March 18th, in a post titled, Take a seat aboard the ferry and listen to what real talent sounds like: Sea Lion - "America, why does the heart cry" @ Stockholm Boat Sessions http://hallandalebeachblog.blogspot.com/2012/03/take-seat-aboard-ferry-and-listen-to.html I love this concept!

jerrygbg video: Sea Lion - "America, why does the heart cry" @ Stockholm Boat Sessions. December 13, 2012. http://youtu.be/Ca9BXSago60 2018 Update The original video has been removed but you can hear and see the song being performed here, just inside a club. https://vimeo.com/channels/timodriscoll/41789568 Naturally, this blog of mine, having the sort of sensibility that it does, where when and if I'm doing things as intended here, everything just seems to flow together and write itself, my last post on a new music video from Russia brings to mind yet another music video recorded on water that I've been sitting on for a few months, albeit one recorded on something considerably slower than a cigarette boat festooned with bikini-clad eye candy, living the high-life while zooming around on Biscayne Bay and the Miami River with the Miami skyline in the background. By that I reference my March 12, 2012 post titled, "It's like a tourism ad for Miami: DJ M.E.G. - Moscow to California ft. Сергей Лазарев & Тимати - Moscow to California -with a water pit-stop in Miami!" featuring a video that has to be seen to be believed. http://hallandalebeachblog.blogspot.com/2012/03/its-like-tourism-ad-for-miami-dj-meg.html https://youtu.be/b2kRM46QYls Today's post and video at the top is one that I've been saving up for a bit features a very talented artist from Göteborg named Linn Osterberg, who records under the name "Sea Lion," not unlike the wonderfully-talented Anni Berhard, whom I've been so totally agog about since finding out about last year, who records under the nom-de-disque, "Full of Keys." (More news on Anni soon, whom I hope to see when I'm in Stockholm!) The video at the top of this post is of Osterberg -playingguitar- singing an acoustic version of the song "America, why does the heart cry" on board a ferry ship in Stockholm with her very talented friend and fellow artist, Therese Svensson, while other passengers listen along. It was recorded as part of the imaginative Stockholm Boat Sessions video series, http://www.stockholmboatsessions.se/ http://stockholmboatsessions.blogspot.com/ That series of musical videos is something that I have been enjoying for a while now via YouTube, wondering, as usual, why something that is by turns both simple AND clever, doesn't/can't/won't happen in South Florida, where we actually have the weather and resources to do it almost year round, esp. in the Ft. Lauderdale area or along the Intracoastal or Biscayne Bay between Miami and South Beach. Forget about July, though!!! Hmm-m... so why haven't there been a series of performances recorded on the Staten Island Ferry going back and forth to Manhattan, with the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline behind them? Just a thought. Ladies and Gentleman, without further adieu, say hello to Sea Lion. By the way, as of today, with the 8 tracks going for 60 SEK, and with a U.S. dollar getting you about 6.7471 Swedish kronor, well, you do the math. http://inmykitchen.bandcamp.com/album/mercy-land
