Biography

Danish singer-songwriter, internationally known as [b]Tina Dico[/b]. Born 14 October 1977 in Aabyhøj in the suburbs of Aarhus, she studied religious science at Aarhus University, then music at [l=Det Jyske Musikkonservatorium] before turning to a professional career as musician. In 1998 she was part of the group Fester Kester that won two talent-contests that year with songs written by her. Later in 1998 she released debut single [Link]. In 2000 she started her own record label, [l=Finest Gramophone]. The first release was her 2001 album [Link] where she was backed by the band [a=Sheriff (12)]. In 2002 Dickow moved to England and through her contract with Jonathan Morley got to do a collaboration with Holly Valance on the song "Send My Best" and here met Sam Hardaker of [a=Zero 7]. [a=Zero 7] asked her to collaborate with them and they recorded "Home" and "The Space Between" which are featured on the album [Link]. Her second album [Link] was written during her stay in England and in 2004 she released the EP [Link] with new versions of tracks from Notes and Fuel, coupled with one new song. In June 2005 Dickow released her third album [Link] that earned her a commercial breakthrough in Denmark and the title "vocalist of the year" at the Danish Music Awards that year. Her next album [Link] from 2007 entered the Danish albums charts as number 1 and stayed on the charts for 70 weeks. It established Dickow as one of the major acts on the musical scene in Denmark, a position she maintained with the next two albums [Link] (2008) and [Link] (2009). In 2008 Dickow moved out of London and back to Copenhagen, and in 2011 she moved to Iceland to found a family with local musician [a=Helgi Hrafn Jónsson], whom she met on a tour of Canada in 2008. Dickows 2014 album [Link], featuring several songs written in collaboration with Jónsson, is a partial soundtrack to the Danish movie "En Du Elsker" from the same year.

LYRICS

It?s late in the afternoon
The light falls through the window
It?s draws a cross
Above my bed
Where you?re on a different moon
Where violent winds blow with no course
Inside your head

You think there may be something wrong with you
To make you doubt your love like this
Well, I guess I?m singing out this song to you
To let you know I think there is

But you know better than me
You know better than anyone
You know better than me
You know better than me

?Maybe it?s selfishness? you say
?All the promise I?ve broken thoughtlesly
I know that?s no way to live?
?Or maybe it?s mere distress? I say
Fear to let anyone close enough to see
That you?ve got nothing to give??

You say you need to travel far away
To make you think of something else
Well, I think you?d find out if you dared to stay
That far away is a place inside yourself

But you know better than me
You know better than anyone
You know better than me
You know better than me

Oh, did you ever place a bet?
Did you ever gamble anything for love?
What you give is what you get
And now you know it?s not enough

You say you need to travel far away
To make you think of something else
Well, I think you?d find out if you dared to stay
That far away is a place inside yourself

But you know better than me
You know better than anyone
You know better than me
You know better than me
