Katie Goes To Tokyo,是来自瑞典的女创作歌手Kathrine Bergstrom的艺名。《Katie Goes To Tokyo》是她个人的第一张专辑,声音极度清新甜蜜,像极了早期的The Cardigans,清馨略显慵懒的歌声轻而易举地打动人,不知不觉已经喜欢上她。
Katie曾和几位好友组成了庞克乐队Backfish,并担任主唱,几经辗转出了第一张专辑《It's Emilys》,不久后解散。后来又和M?rten Tromm组了The Wilson Hospital,于02年在瑞典和日本发行专辑《Medication for a lost generation》。单曲“Call me a.s.a.p”在瑞典成为大热曲目。遗憾的是,发行公司破产,致使绝大部分CD未曾上市。(这张专辑在网络上有试听过,风格跟现在有些差异,也还是不错的一张。)后来的新写的歌,却不十分适合The Wilson Hospital,和搭档协商后,Katie开始了单飞之旅,艺名Katie goes to Tokyo。至于为什么偏偏要goes to tokyo,不为人知。东京这个时尚之都,现代大都会,对于歌手来讲,不容否认,是很有诱惑力的吧。
I'm going to a place I know
Far away, I can't stay here anymore
And bitterness my only friend
A spiteful pain tears me up
Until there's nothing left
I'm ready now to give it up
Close the door, walk away
And don't look back
Melting ice in the spring
Soft light in the summernights
Cold rain on firecoloured leafes
I need to go back home
Melting ice in the spring
Soft light in the summernights
Cold rain on firecoloured leafes
I'm bidding you goodbye
It wasn't made for people like me
So hold your breath I'm on my way
I'm going now, to my friends in my hometown
Back to my friends in my hometown
