I just received two phone calls from HÅkan at the studio in Gothenburg. I feel so good talking to him. He told me that they would do their absolut best to rectify some of the problems that have happened somewhere along the line between recording a perfect take, and not hearing it in the finished product. They would do everything they could.

In the limited time available to them due to our constrained mixing budget, I really believe and trust they have done their utmost. And I hope and believe that in the end we will have made a record we can all be proud of. If someone had told me I’d be here, releasing my second official album - and such a great one at that, when I was seventeen, I would have sold my soul to be where I am now. So You know what? I’m going to kick back and enjoy this for a while. And worry about all that stuff some other day.

A guy emailed me today saying he thought my last name was much cooler than his *lol* First time for everything, I suppose. A good day.
