Bertine started on her musical journey at a young age, penning her first numbers aged just 12. After emerging from a more Classical music route and music college, she began to concentrate on her long-term fantasy to become a singer-songwriter.
Her debut album 'Morbid Latenight Show,' released in 1998, was followed by the Tore Johansson (The Cardigans) produced 'Beautiful So Far' in 2000. Her third album, 'Sweet Injections', was released in 2003, produced by electronic experts Howie B & Magnus Fiennes and producer Richard X (Sugababes, Rachel Stevens) and included the hit single 'Girl Like You' which gained widespread critical acclaim and commercial success.
Her fourth album Rollerskating included the singles Fake Your Beauty, which reached the #1 chart position, and Ah-Ah, which was remixed on release and was a popular club hit. Bertine released her fifth album My Italian Greyhound in September 2006, with the track "500" as the first single in Norway.
Bertine says: ”The Album ’My Italian Greyhound’ is like the dog: Elegant, humorous, fit and well scented. With a charming hint of neurosis.” more .......
Girl Like You
Fake Your Beauty
And now a really good cover of the fantastic Peter Gabriel/Kate Bush song. Despite what the "video" says I am still in the Peter Gabriel/Kate Bush camp.
But I have to say I really enjoyed this cover, plus it is unique in switching the gender casting.
