I Will Be There Sophie Zelmani From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sophie Zelmani (born February 12, 1972 in Stockholm as Sophie Edkvist) is a Swedish singer-songwriter who released her first single in 1995, called "Always You". Early life Born in the suburbs of Stockholm in 1972, Zelmani's father bought the family a guitar when Zelmani was 14.[1] Despite no professional music training,[1] Zelmani became a songwriter and recorded some songs at a local studio. After she mailed the demos to three record companies, Zelmani was offered a record deal by Sony Music Sweden. Career Sophie Zelmani[1] recorded her debut self-titled album with Sony in 1995. The album was produced and arranged by Lars Halapi[2] (co-produced by Patrik Sventelius), who also played guitar. She described the process of making the album: "In the beginning Lars and I spent a few months in the studio. We had fun and then picked the musicians. We recorded in two weeks but the whole thing took half a year."[3] By 1997, Zelmani's debut album had sold 200,000 copies in Europe and Asia Pacific, before moving to the US market, distributed by Columbia Records.[4] Zelmani said, "I had no ambitions to go abroad. I knew I wanted to make a record. That's all I wanted."[3] Columbia's marketing campaign included CD sampler giveaways, consumer press, and rotation on SAS Airlines flights between Scandinavia and the US.[5] Zelmani has continued to record albums while making only a small number of public appearances due to shyness.[1] She won a best newcomer award in Sweden's Grammy awards in 1996.[6] Discography Year Album 1995 Sophie Zelmani 1998 Precious Burden 1999 Time to Kill 2002 Sing and Dance 2003 Love Affair 2005 A Decade of Dreams 1995-2005 2007 Memory Loves You 2008 The Ocean and Me 2010 I'm the Rain Zelmani has also contributed music to the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Dawson's Creek.

回复苏乡门地的评论:
She does have a very gentle and sweet voice.

I like Kevin kern's music a lot.
I did not listen a lot to the Chinese pop music. It's a blind spot to me. :-)

Have a wonderful weekend!
