Svensk radio interview med Lauri

I: God morgon, Lauri!
L: God morgon! (answers in Swedish)
I: How has your morning been so far?
L: It has begun well, I'm right now taking a walk in the woods.
I: Oh, well how is the weather in the woods?
L: Really good, nice smells, it's so summery here.
I: Great! You just came from Germany with The Rasmus. What did you do there?
L: Well... actually, we put the last parts of the album together and now we're ready for the great fight.
I: First you've got a single coming out, today, very soon,
Please tell us a little about the upcoming single Livin' In A World Without You.
L: It was the last song composed for the album, actually everything else was finished as we went to record this song.
We still felt like we wanted to try one more time. I think it was right feeling because this song puts the album together quite well, and it's quite a lot different song to be the first single than it would have been in another case.
I: Interesting, isn't it always the the last snowboard jump that fails when you think "one more time", and then something bad happens, but not this time?
L: Yes, that makes sense but this time it was succesful. We had a little time between this song and the other substance. I think we'd got some perspective to the other stuff and we could make this song, which represents the whole album quite well.
I: How about Black Roses? How would you like to describe it?
L: It's pretty miscellaneous, Livin' In A World Without You with its sound is new for us. It's more electronic and there's little suprises comparing to our old music. There are "rap-parts", synthesizers and a club sound. In the album there's true rock too and for example the fastest song we've ever written. Altogether it's going to be an interesting album.
I: Now it feels like it's the time to listen the song. Please tell us a little more about the single.
L: Well, the song is about a tragic event that was shown in the world news, actually when the song was written. But I desire that when people hear the song, they would draw their own conclusions.
But enjoy the song!
I: Yeeh, thanks, a lot of thanks Lauri, and have a nice day! And have a nice walk in the woods.
L: Thanks, thanks.
I: And give regards to the squirrels!
L: (laughs) yeah.
