That was fun, Eh?

Okay, I know. It was ridiculous.

Recipe from 365 Ways To Cook Pasta Cookbook

Out of Stockholm, Sweden is Jonas Carping. A little bit folk, some alt-country and a lot of beautiful lyrics.

Such an achingly lovely voice. Such gentle guitar. I am completely hooked.

This song is just flat out gorgeous.

“It’s the aching kind
breaking hearts, as it moves
it’s the wishing kind
as it unrolls with hope
we will not fade

Some are the things that we leave inside
Some are the love that we left behind, go wild
My eyes are open wide
Dont leave me underground”
Jonas Carping-Underground

And this song, in Swedish, is so good no matter what Jonas is singing about.

Check out Jonas Carping on his Website and Facebook. You can buy the ‘Underground’ EP here. The full length album ‘All The Time In The World’ will be released September 24, 2012. You can pre-order it here.

Cheers!
