Since I'm not travelling so often any more I need to find something else to write about on my blog. After travelling, music is my second big passion so the choice for a new topic was an easy one for me. In this post I will introduce you to a new series on my blog. Every two weeks I will share music from all over the world that is not known to the big crowd (yet), but should certainly be shared. Every post (except for today's one) will be related to a certain theme. The list of themes is mentioned at the bottom of this post, now let's start with the music.
Lolita Jolie - Non Non Non (Poland)
To start off, I present you with Lolita Jolie (real name: Claudia Cislek). She's from Poland, but living in Germany and she's singing a song in French. Are you still following? Good. Lovely Lolita got her passion for the French language from her grandfather and is now conquering Europe with her music in this language. Her music is addictive from the very first minute you listen to it and is likely to stay in your head for the rest of the day.
Are you still hearing this last song in your head now? You can't say I didn't warn you for that... You can try to get it out of your head again by listening to this next song, which is something completely different.
Molly Sandén & Christopher - A Little Forgiveness (Sweden + Denmark)
Linda Hesse - Ich Bin Ja Kein Mann (Germany)
I discovered this next song only last week and I love it already. Young and pretty Linda Hesse sings about her response to the tough break-up with her ex-boyfriend who didn't seem to care about her feelings at all. Her first response was to cry (after all: she's not a man), but she quickly realized that it made no sense to cry over a man. She then decided it's more fun to deal with a break-up by going to a party in a tight dress and flirting with random guys all night long.
List of themes:
1. Introduction (3 February)
2. Rock (17 February)
3. Foreign languages - traditional music (3 March)
4. South Africa (17 March)
5. To be announced later (31 March)
6. Foreign languages - pop (14 April)
7. Asian pop music (28 April)
8. To be announced later (12 May)
9. Covers of internationally known songs (26 May)
10. To be announced later (9 June)
If you have any internationally unknown songs from your country (or any other country) related to one of these themes, please let me know. If the song makes it to my blog in the end, I will mention your name in that post to thank you for your input.

Molly Sandén & Christopher - A Little Forgiveness (Sweden + Denmark)
We move on towards a beautiful duet of ISC-winner Christopher and Swedish Molly Sandén. I have no knowledge about musical compositions, but you can hear in this song that the producer of this song is extremely talented and knows what he is doing. This is the perfect modern pop song: it's catchy, sung by an attractive singer (Christopher received 36 of his 41 points in ISC#4 from females, even though there were more male than female voters) and the listener can easily get captured by the beauty of the song. The highlight of the song is when Molly and Christopher sing the second chorus together at 1:40.
