Biography

Hello Saferide is a Swedish twee pop band fronted by songwriter Annika Norlin. According to Norlin's MySpace, the stage name "Hello Saferide" was "inspired by an intelligent bus driver in a drug-addicted small town, don't ask." The Swedish-language version of the band's biography identifies the town as Willimantic, Connecticut. Based on the Internet success of the song "Highschool Stalker," Hello Saferide was signed to Razzia Records in 2005. In 2007, Norlin released a Swedish-language album under the band name Säkert! (a phrase that means "Yeah, right!", but also "Safe"). The album won her two Grammis awards in 2008, for best female pop act and best lyrics. She was chosen by Matt Groening to perform at the edition of the All Tomorrow's Parties festival he was curating in May 2010 in Minehead, England. Annika Norlin is a journalist, and has worked for several newspapers in Sweden. She has also hosted different radio shows at Sveriges Radio P3.

LYRICS

There is a war in all the heads and there's a
war in mine as well and if I could explain it any better, I'm sure I would.
We're in a bus and it's night, you opened up and so will I but though I'm good with words I've never been good with... words.
But all I know is: there's something new this year.
All I know is there's something new real near.

There is a town that I live in and it's a town that favors winners and when I win I think about when I'll next lose.
.
I took a train that took me north and it's the place where trees speak louder than the people and if I have to pick that's what I'll choose.

I walked along the river Ume, it chilled me out of my bones too, but a cold wind is always better than a cold voice.
I am not strong enough for win city, I'll stay in to play Sin, witty people without hearts have always had a lead on me.

And all I know is, there's something new this year,
all I know is there's something new real near.
All I know is, there's something new this year.
I don't know much, but there's something new coming near.

I'll walk into the shop where you work, it is a shop that kills you slowly, there will be no blood but another shirt on a hanger will still behead you.
I'll lift your arm and you'll lift mine, and in a Communist state of mind, we're not worth more than anyone else but surely not worth less.
