Major upgrade of Historic Lene section

(Notice by Tef Johs, January 21, 2010)

It's a pleasure for the editor to introduce Historic Lene Period 7 and Period 8.

The new Period 7, "Lene Working With Other Artists", completes the Era 3 section. The Era 3 section stores contemporary newspaper articles giving an account of Lene's history through her "Lost In A Moment" release (2005) and the two years following this event.

The new Period 8, "The Road To Twist The Truth", introduces the history of Lene in what's been defined as Era 4, "The Release Of Twist The Truth". 

The official promotion video for Lene and Alexander With's joint single, "Worth It", is just around the corner. The video was recorded on December 12 - 13, and while we are waiting we should in a timely manner be reminded that not everyone likes the song, just as this review by Dagbladet is an example of.

Pleasant until the effaceable

Idol-winner back from the ruthless oblivion with aid from Lene Marlin.

SONG: Kurt Nilsen and Venke Knutson once did a nice, tidy, tweely coziness-and-hugz version of Ryan Adams' "When The Stars Go Blue", which was health-threatingly anaemic and intolerable unimaginative. And therefore something of a low point when it comes to synergy- and career planning within the Norwegian pop duet special field.

Yesterday, the Norwegian daily paper Dagbladet reported the happy news about Lene's single "Here We Are" being the most airplayed Norwegian song of 2009. We also learn that "Twist The Truth" has sold 15.000 copies.

This year's radio hits

(Published by Dagbladet, December 29, 2009)

Lene Marlin (29) created this year's Norwegian radio hit.

The Tromsø girl's "Here We Are" made it just outside the winner's podium at Hit40, which shows the most popular songs on Norwegian radio stations.

When the final 2008 tax records went public in late October 2009, they showed Lene's private fortune to be almost 15 million NOK. A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to Lene, indeed!

A good year for Lene

Lene Marlin Pedersen is the more wealthy among the celebrities of Tromsø.

Lene Marlin Pedersen is richest among the celebrities of Tromsø. Last year she increased her fortune with over half-a-million, despite not having released any new material.

With the new record, "Twist The Truth", now out in 2009, Marlin might have another good year in waiting.

Lene recording new video with Alexander With

(Notice by Tef Johs, December 12, 2009)

An official promotion video for "Worth It" is being recorded today by Lene and Alexander With.

According to the smaller twitter message by Alexander, posted at about 10:30 AM today, the word is:

"Music video recording with Lene Marlin. Lots of good people. Nice!"

It was back on October 9 that we first noticed the upcoming release of Lene and With's joint single, "Worth It". A song written by Aleksander With, Lene Marlin & Bernt Rune Stray. The song was released on October 19 in digital format.
