Idol duo Vanilla Beans comes back to us on their Nordic winds with a brand new album full of yet unheard tracks! This includes new catchy pop track "älskar dig" (watch a live performance on YouTube) that's an answer song to early hit single "Nicola". Two covers are included, Spitz' "oppai" and an English-sung 8-minute "Stairway To Heaven" (Led Zeppelin). Also be prepared to get sentimental with "oyasumi", music written by late singer-songwriter bice to which Rena and Lisa wrote lyrics themselves.
Also look out for the very not-idol-like jacket which does not even have a photo of the girls but instead a strange illustration. Vanilla Beans just love to surprise!
Watch this clip where the girls talk about the album, with English subtitles too!
