Sweden: Best dressed!

Yesterday Swedish fashion magazine ELLE held an award gala in Stockholm, to hand out 16 awards in fashion world. Who else but our Agnes won the "Best dressed artist of the year" category! As you can see on the picture below, she truly deserves this award. A big congratulations to Agnes! I have a feeling that she will surpass herself this year.

France: New single - Sometimes I Forget

It seems like it´s time for a 3rd single in France! Even though they haven´t released the 2nd one yet..

Well "On And On" were released, but only as a dwonload, and it seems like it won´t get a CD-single release in France either, even though the 1st single "Release Me" has spent 26 weeks on the french singles chart!
A new edition of "Dance Love Pop", called Collectors Edition were released in France on the 18tt January. According to this website, quite surprisingly the 3rd single in France will be "Sometimes I Forget". It´s a ballad, and a great one, but there are several stronger tracks on "Dance Love Pop" - "Love Love Love", "Love Me Senseless", "I Need You Now", "Big Blue Wall".. But it´s really an interesting choice, let´s hope they´ll do a video for it and maybe even a french version of the song, like "Réalise" & "On Se Donne".
The track is written by Anders Hansson, Steve Diamond & Agnes herself. No official releasedate yet.

On And On - Benny Benassi Remix!

UK: 3rd On And On video: Confirmed!

Quote from Agnes official Facebook page earlier today: "In Gothenburg Sweden - Making a new video!"

And on the official website Agnes confirmes it´s a 3rd video for "On And On". The picture above is from the video shoot, and i think it looks very "Lara Croft", how exciting!
A 3rd video may seem a bit strange, but it definetly shows they have high hopes for it´s UK release. I´m guessing this means it´ll be a different version of the song too. But i wonder how long they can wait, i´m afraid the UK audience are forgetting about Agnes at the moment..
The 2nd video for "On And On" were also shooted in Gothenburg, July last year, check it out below. 

France: Dance Love Pop - Edition Collector!

Today France gets a special treat! "Dance Love Pop - Edition Collector" is today released with 19 tracks! Including the new remixes & songs. You can buy it here.

On and On and On

It´s quit around Agnes for the moment. In an interview with Swedish newspaper ttela, Agnes say that she´ll be taking it easy and relaxing in January. In February there´ll be a lot of planning for this year, to plan promotion in US & Europe. But for right now there´s not a lot going on with Agnes, at least that´s "public".
In UK the album has been pushed back, once again, to March 29th. A right move, since they haven´t managed to release the 3rd single "On And On", yet. The lates reports said it would be released in end of February, but still there´s no sign of any radio or tv airplay. According the latest rumours the UK label, 3BeatBlue, are waiting for a brand new video for "On And On":
"We are waiting for the licensor (Roxy Music in Sweden) to deliver a new video, once that is delivered we will be able to confirm a release date."
Hm, a 3rd musicvideo for "On And On"? Nothing confirmed yet though, but it sounds very strange. IN that case it has to be a new version, and i don´t know how i feel about that.The smartest thing to do right now, would be to release the Moonwalker version of  "On And On", and promote it like crazy! But as always only time will tell how everything will work out.

UK: "Forthcoming in the next couple of months"

Sales figures - Dance Love Pop Era

During the "Dance Love Pop" -era, Agnes has sold quite some singles. Thanks to forums, interviews & blogs we have some sales figures for the singles. The numbers we know for sure is 537.336+ sold copies. But the numbers we don´t know has to be a lot more! Both in Holland & Belgium Agnes has had 2 singles selling well. "On And On" has sold some in Switzerland, Denmark, France & Italy. In Germany, Austria & Switzerland, "Release Me" has to have sold very much, since it´s been in each countries top 10. It also has sold some in the US. So what can the real number of total Agnes singles sales be? 1 million? 2 million? 5 million? One thing is for sure though, Agnes will sell a lot more singles during this year, and hopefully a lot of albums too. We have upcoming single releases in UK, Germany/Switzerland/Austria, Japan and the sales in US will probably increase. Also new singles has newly been released in Sweden, Denmark & Australia.

What A Year!

What a year! 2009 has really been a fantastic year for Agnes and her fans. From being one of Sweden´s most popular singers, she´s now become one of the worlds most popular artists! In the beginning of the year Agnes debutated in the Swedish “Melodifestivalen”, where she sang “Love Love Love” directly to the finale. And during her participation in Melodifestivalen, things were happening outside Sweden. We heard that she was planning to release her album in 10-12 european countries. “Release Me” started to chart in Belgium & Denmark, whilst “On And On” were climbing the charts in Poland & Holland. 

After Melodifestivalen in Sweden Agnes released a new version of her album, “Dance Love Pop – The Love Love Love Edition”, and did a club tour around Sweden. At the same time Agnes were creating quite the buzz around Europe over the net. The video for “Release Me” on Youtube, views increased a lot in just days. In the spring it were time to release “Release Me” in the UK, and even though the single had done tremendosly in clubs and getting some airplay, noone expected it to do as well as it did. #1 on UK Itunes #2 on UK Radio Airplay #3 on UK Single Chart. The success were a fact. The now 13-15 countries that Agnes were signed to, increased to 35! “Release Me” entered the charts all around Europe. Agnes started to tour all around Europe, visiting France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Norway, Poland, UK, Ireland etc. “Release Me” sold silver in the UK, gold in Italy & Denmark and platinum in Norway! The album were released in several european countries. Agnes got to perform at huge events like; Sopot Hit Festival, The Dome, Party In The Park, TMF Awards, The Jingle Bell Ball etc. 

All of Europe became in love with Agnes.

And the rest of the world didn´t wait long for “Aggie”. In Australia “Release Me” almost sold gold, and in Africa Agnes performed in front of 200.000 people singing along with her songs!

Rumoures also stated that Agnes were signed to a label in the US. These rumoures were true, 3 major labels wanted to sign Agnes. The choice became Interscope Records – the worlds biggest record label. She shooted new videos for the international release of “On And On” & the US release of “Release Me”. She also re-made “I Need You Now” for release in the UK. It gave Agnes her 2^nd UK top40 hit & her 7^th top10 hit in her native country Sweden.

Agnes has made loads and loads of promotion all over the world this year. Clubtour in the US, tv-performances, interviews with papers, tv & radio.

In Sweden Agnes continued her succes from Melodifestivalen, to lots of tv-performances, a nationwide tour, 2 awards, nominations, and a new album; “Dance Love Pop – International Edition”. Agnes is one of the most written about in Swedish news-papers this year. Even the Tv-news has reported about her success in the world.

Except the new mixes, we got 2 brand new songs from Agnes; “You Rain” & “Secret Love”, 2 great prooves that Anders Hansson & co, could create more smahs hits for Agnes.

All this is just a little bit of what Agnes has done this year. 2009 was Agnes´ year, and i  don´t think 2010 will be any different. Album release in Australia, UK, US... New singles in UK, Germany, Japan... Lots of promotion. Last but not least, these “mega plans” we have heard of. How exciting!

France: Agnes live @ "La chanson de l'année"
