Montt Mardié - Names Not Forgotten
(Muxtape won't let me upload it, grr!) I've always thought Montt Mardié (the stage name of Swedish singer/musician David Pagmar) was an interesting act, but this new song is acer than all of his previous work put together. It's very jolly and catchy, a sunny, bouncy tune with plentiful oohs. I really want to make up a dance routine for it. If his voice was less weird it would be a great TV show theme tune. Soon Montt (or Monty as he calls himself in the first line of this song) will release his first album in the UK, and quite strangely it will be released through a label set up by almost good pop band Lucky Soul. The album is a compilation of his two Swedish albums entitled Introducing... The Best Of Montt Mardié, also including Names Not Forgotten, which will be his debut single over here. I suspect most of you don't even know who he is, but if there do happen to be any other Morten Abel fans reading this, I highly recommend Montt Mardié to you.
