Seems this young Norwegian artist has caused quite a stir by being open about things, as Scandinavians are known for and for delivering a song that might be rather controversial to many, breaking traditional female stereotypes that few question. I'm not posting the lyrics but you can read them here:

Would be interesting to hear what you people overseas think, if you've heard it.
I think it's cool, the lyrics might not be sympathetic but they're honest. What do you think?
Are these supposed to be special lyrics

Theres nothing controversial about it...
I see nothing wrong with it, I like the song!
Read some posts at a lyrics site, there was quite a heated debate going on over there about certain references.
Wether people like it or not, there will be "suggestive lyrics" in almost any song. If you watch a show on VH1, they ask the bands what the songs were about and they give you 3 guesses, all of which sound reasonable. And it's always the oddest one... ANYWHO.. I like the song, its cute, I even dedicated it to a guy i like cause the chorus was pretty much how it is between me and him. so..lol..I think they're fine. People just worry to much. Always wanting something to argue about.
~Sincerley yours...
Breaking female stereotypes is always-- well, usually--; yet, I see this a typical fare, with little different to the usual at all.
This is a great line:
"You're the only one who
Holds my hair back when I'm drunk and get sick
You're the only one who
Knows exactly what I mean
I just believe she's HOT :wink:
I'm young and nieve and I don't understand what she means when she says,
"And I probably forgot to tell you this
Like that time I forgot to tell you about the scar
Remember how uncomfortable that made you feel?"
Does anyone know what she means?
~Sincerely yours...
Heh...sometimes the truth hurts...
"EWWWW, I don't!"
Well of course not! You're a chick!

Yes, I am a chick, but I still have an oppinion on who's hot and who's not!
Of course you do. What was I thinking?
lol she's pretty(I'm with pessimism I may be a chick but who cares, I'm saying it in a non lezbo way.) but I could almost swear in one scene of the music video it looked she has a mustache that she shaves...
Must've been due for a wax!
Allright guys. I'm norwegian. I've heard this song thousands of times, and read about it in magazines etc. There's a whole story about this song (and the girl aswell). She made it for a friend of her. And yeah, norwegian girls are honest!

Cool that you guys overseas are getting to know norwegian music. Does the name "Sondre Lerche" sound familiar too?
