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

I'm not stupid, I understand
that it would be convenient
If I was better at conversation.
I've learned to master the skill throughout the years:
small talking, but after an hour or so
I mentally die.

And I try, I try, I try, I try,
but I can't help but loving more
When being on my own and watching everyday lives
And I try. I try, I wish I wanted to go see local churches with you
Or to go clubbing where the young ones do
But all I really want to to is watch the everyday lives

My friend, nothing is ever the matter with you
I'm glad to see it, but I don't believe it
You won't have to worry, I'll soon have figured you out
I won't tell you when I have, but I'll find your weak spot,
your weakest spot, oh I'll find it

And here is mine: I try to pretend
That I like to be part of it all
And that I enjoy going out
With you and you and you and you

And I try, I try, I try, I try
But I can't help but dreaming of
Sitting by myself and watching everyday lives
And I try, I try, I try, I try
but I just want to spend more time with my mind
It always surprises me every time
And none of you ever do
it doesn't mean that I don't love you
