Can’t believe they skipped on Malin, she sang and moved so cool…
Malin has her private life and family. I think that was the reason they looked for new singer.
Great vice. I think, i like’t
Malin was too hyperactive for my taste. Their task was to support marie, don’t steal her the show.
I’m not sure how to feel about this. It takes a long time to accept a new band member. I finally love Helena, now I have to get used to a new girl who’s never played with Per or Marie. Humph.
It’s a pitty Malin isn’t with them this time. Still love the Nära EP!
I could imagine the reason is what Tomasz wrote, as it’s a really long tour around the whole globe.
Change for most people is always something scary. I think Dea will do just fine. Planet Roxette had to get use to Helena as well. She seems to have a very nice voice and I think that Per & Marie would not have chosen her if they did not feel that she would be an asset to the band. Let’s give her a chance!
Dea Norberg is a very experienced background singer in Sweden. I don’t think there is one single artist she hasn’t sung with. She’s incredibly talanted and you all should be glad they got her.
Hej Tiiger, I’m sure she’ll do a nice job. It’s just that many fans got used to Malin and Helena or even met them. So change may be tough at first. I hope to have a chance to experience Dea next year!
