Jenny Berggren - Here I Am

Anyone who wants to call them a fan of eurotrash has to be able to appreciate the amazement that was Ace of Base. Their albums produced some of the most memorable songs of the 90s and I would probably trace back my love of Sweden to beginning when I figured out that All That She Wants was from a group from Gothenburg.

Despite an effort last year for three of the group members to resurrect Ace of Base with some new remixes of old hits and some tour dates across Europe, not much success came their way. In 2010, plans are for Ace of Base once again to launch a comeback, this time with two new female members. This is causing a bit of controversy with the former members, but a new single is expected shortly. This should be interesting!

Moving on to the career of Jenny Berggren, who was one of the original members of Ace of Base (also known as the brunette one to those who weren't too familiar with their names). Her first physical release is Here I Am, which is a bit of a mid-tempo pop track not too far from what you might expect from Ace of Base would be releasing 2010 if the original group was still intact.

At first listen, it isn't much of a standout track, but after a few listens it really does start to grown on you. And we can't do anything but be happy for Jenny finding herself back involved with good eurotrash music! The song spent one week on the Swedish charts at #14 and has since not appeared again. A bit unfortunate and undeserved but yet also not totally surprising given how saturated the Swedish market is with this kind of stuff.
