We are grateful to have had Linn for the short time we did. She made her mark and now needs to be left alone. She's a beautiful soul.
Yes true. Too much of a sensitive soul for the dog-eat-dog music industry.
Fame isn't everything. Lin deserves respect, and fans too. Lets enjoy their music
Yeah I’m sure it’s not all it’s cracked up to be.
He saw the sign and it opened up his eyes
😂😂😂
In my idea, now the world need Linn more than 90's
There is so many wars and bad news in the world now and Linn can help people by her art, magic voice, kind heart and peaceful message (in my imaginations, i see Malin Berggren as UN Ambassador for Peace) 💐 what a beautiful wish 🙏
Wow, interesting...!! When Ulf was 14-16 years old - can only imagine he 'fell in' with a crowd. Many children are desperate just to fit in. It's easy for us to judge and know everything about someone when we hear something throwaway online that might shock us.
'Life is a Flower' is my fave AoB song
I love that song - especially the choir at the end.
When i was kid there music sounded so magical
They were so huge in the mid-90s. The first album was great in fairness
I never knew this all happened. Thanks for the video
😀🙏
I feel so sorry for Jenny's story,sometimes being a Fan can makes you mad!
A Bjork's Fan commited suicide in late 1996 as he was a real fan of hers
Thanks for this info, I always wondered. I was a fan of their music.
😀
Important to point out that Ulf Ekberg denies that the racist tracks on the "Uffe was a Nazi" CD have anything to do with him or the band Commit Suiside. They are 'credited' on the album, but that album was published anonymously and wasn't released until 1998, six years after Ulf Ekberg had stated to the press that he regretted his racist past. To be clear, *someone* sang those racist songs, but it's not clear it's Ulf Ekberg or even Commit Suiside.
Your Linn summary is quite a good one, although it omits all mention of the decade when all the band members pretended Linn was still in Ace of Base when they later admitted in 2007 that she hadn't been involved for many years.
Yes that’s mentioned in the very long quote I featured in the video from E News! Even if the band didn’t write them, they performed them, which is still shocking
Not sure about your second point. An entire decade? she featured in videos/performances/artwork during most of that period.
@@jonnyharvey Linn missed far more performances than she attended: for SOTN, she made one public appearance; for Da Capo, she made two appearances. She was photoshopped into the Flowers and Cruel Summer artwork.
@@jonnyharvey Ulf says they didn't perform them. He says Commit Suiside was not a racist band. *Someone* performed those songs, but it's not clear it was CS. Ulf states that he was a racist, but the songs attributed to CS were not performed by them.
@@jonnyharvey No, that's not correct. Ulf claims they didn't even perform those tracks. The band performed regularly at club nights across Gothenburg in the 80s so you should be careful about labelling them a "Nazi punk band".
loved them
both sisters were amazingly beautiful.
I only just found out they were sisters!!
It was so sad to hear that story about the sessions for Everytime It Rains, it is actually one of my Top 5 favorite AOB songs, and I'm not just saying that because I'm friends with one of the writers.
I know I actually love that song. It had no video, no promotion & it got to 22 in the UK, which was quite good considering. I just love all Billy Steinberg & Rick Nowel’s work. They are two of my favourite songwriters.
@@jonnyharvey Billy is great people, he and my dad were long time friends and he even donated to my dad’s funeral fund.
That’s nice of him. I’ve always been a fan of his work
Linn was so pretty.
Yes agreed - gorgeous
@@jonnyharvey did you know that a spinoff called A*base existed they were to ace of base what the abba teens were to abba
@@dionneking8 ohgod i need to google this
Linn IS around, she’s a successful business owner, but she has changed her name and appearance. She’s not recognisable. She lives with her partner and three dogs.
I hope she's happy. I'm sad for her though, because she feels like she has to live under a different identity. that being said, again, if she is happy - that's all that matters. And Linn, if you ever read this : your voice has been a comfort for me for 30 years and always will be. thank you from the bottom of my heart. Maya
How do you know?
She's probably far happier
HOW DO YOU KNOW?? DOES SHE LIVES IN GOTHENBURG NEAR JONAS HOUSE??
Happy Nation takes on a new meaning
How did you mean? As in today's world?
@@jonnyharvey well lines like "Where the people understand and dream of perfect man" seems quite aryan nation idea..
Ingegerd/Iryna/Anna orthodox saint, born in Sweden with a slavic/Obotritic princess mother. She had nine siblings in Västergötland. The siblings in Ace of Base are probably related like Bodil in Timoteij. That explains their looks, musicality and spirituality...
Mucha gente no entiende que Linn se traumatizase por el ataque de la fan alemana a Jenny y a sus padres,eso es porque no se explica nunca que realmente esa fan solo quería ver a Linn,su objetivo era ver y hablar con Linn,así lo declaró en la casa de la familia cuando les exigía ver a Linn,y en el juicio eso es lo que declaró,además tenía otros acosadores que fueron detenidos en varias ocasiones intentando entrar,o entrando,en las habitaciones que ocupaba Linn en los hoteles,y también era acosada por carta,todo eso se suma al poco interés en la fama y el dinero que tenía Malin,todo fue la causa de su retirada gradual del mundo público,no es culpa suya que la mayoría de los fans la adorasen y no aceptaran el cambio de cantante principal.
Oh, I’m so “shocked” … think I need a lie down…
Okay, hope you recover soon 😂
Just when everything was going good for them, somebody who was probably jealous of their fast success drop a dime on them to get 15 minutes of fame, this always happens even in 2024, no matter if your Rich and Famous or eve Poor with nothing to show for it; their will be that one person who dig up some dirt in your past where you left just o make a name for them selves.
And the problem is what???
Ace If Base Suggested Greatly Artistically When Lin Left Her Huge Mudic Talent and Anazing Voice & Vocals Were So Unique And Impossible to Replace. I lost interest in Ace of Base after her departure frim the Band It just Wasnt Quite as Good
Yeah maybe you're right? Did she co- write the songs?The quality of the music did dip after she stepped back/left
One issue I have with the band story, is that they act as if Ulf was the only one with those views. If so, how come the band were called Ace of Base before he joined? ('Ace of Base' is a very specific name related to a famous n4z1 submarine). I suspect the truth is a lot darker than they are claiming...
What you did in the past that's nobody's business and if I was him I will find out who put all those pictures on internet and saying stuff about him and I will go after them and soon and because you know what people change and some people don't have the right to dig your pass
2:48 and the LEFT? When has the left ever been a problem? lmao
In USSR they were a problem. You're just too young to remember what radical left look like. The USSR, Poland, Romania, Hungary - in those places it's still hard to convince the older generation that not all the left should be radical as communists were, and there are non-radical left. There's nothing radical in being a socialist, that's actually more of a norm in many countries like Sweden, France, Germany etc
The left is far more radical and dangerous than the right.
Did.... Did you ever open a history book? Like, ever?
In the beginning Ace of Base had problems to strike in Sweden. This is probably because journalists are generally leftist in Sweden. Everything in music should be based on criticism against something or a protest about something. ABBA and Roxette became so big in just a couple of months so that nobody listened to irrelevant swedish journalist. The music critics had time in Sweden to affect people´s minds, how uncool it would be to like Ace of Base, that it took some time to get passed this...But this swedish naivity, happy-go lucky was in tune what most of the world population imagined of Sweden. They thought it was true, that it was genuine, and they LOVED IT....
yes I heard that the Swedish media were quite negative and dismissive towards them in the beginning.
So its an issue that someone is leftist but ok to be racist and conservative?
@@samyljones3871 WHO has told you that conservative equals racism...?
I love how people in the comments brush off racism only when it relates to blk people. Wyte people going to be wyte
No such thing as wyte. Racists vibes are coming from your post.
they were a bit too Produced for my taste.
No one cares
Ultra processed pop drivel. Really, they are not that great.
They just sold over 40,000,000 albums worldwide, so I guess some people though they were pretty great ; )
@@pagedown4195 Just because it’s catchy doesn’t mean it’s good. And…most of the world has horrible taste.
@@Wondwind What is your favorite music?
If you have an ear for songwriting and pop music you will hear a lot of craftsmanship and dynamics in their music. Infectious melodies smart percussion and bass lines often in a minor key creates a unique vibe.
Clearly you have zero taste in pop music they were amazing and the sale's speak for themselves. The girls were very talented singers unlike some pop singers!
