Anna_TernheimSometimes simple is beautiful. With a "voice that cuts like a knife and sings about those feelings that hurt, so beautiful it makes you want to cry" (Karoline Eriksson, Svenska Dagbladet), Anna Ternheim takes the stage as our featured artist for today.

I don’t remember how I came to know of her, but I’m glad I did! Anna Ternheim is a Swedish singer-songwriter. She performs in English, and she released her debut album Somebody Outside in 2004. Following the release of the album, she won a Swedish Grammy Award for Best Newcomer, and was nominated for Best Female Artist, Best Lyricist and Best Songwriter 2005.

In September of 2006, she released her second album in Sweden, entitled Separation Road. I have yet to hear this album. Meanwhile, today’s featured song, Shoreline, is a song I really love from her first album.

Shoreline is a cover for a song originally by Broder Daniel. The mellow piano score in this song is just outstanding, and I just love the ending as well.
