Bleakness, tragedy and despair are probably a few of the things you might think of when you hear the name Bergman. But don’t let that colour your judgement when it comes to this Bergman. Apart from both being Swedes, I cannot really see that many common denominators between the famous Swedish director and the acclaimed nineties popsmith Mats Bergman, who now is planning his comeback.

Jeff Hanson – Your only son [Audio Porn FM]
In case you’ve managed to miss Jeff Hanson somewhere along the line, it’s your damn duty to pay attention now. Jeff’s an extremely talented singer/songwriter from Wisconsin, USA, and debuted some 5 years ago with the heavenly "Son" album. A month ago he released his 3rd album, "Madam Owl".
Like the rest of his songs/albums it is nothing short of brilliant and full of touching, heartfelt little stories. All sung with an angelic voice that most catholic boy choir members would kill for. It’s hard to choose a single track from the album, since they’re all spectacular, so I let the dice decide which to post. Turned out it is "Your only son" – one of my favorites (it would be, wouldn’t it…). Close your eyes – and enjoy!
