Heidi Hauge- “Skandinavian Queen Of Country Music” – by Des Kelly

I had not heard too much about her, and did not have a clue about what I was missing, when suddenly, on You-tube, she turned up. At first glance, 31 songs (the best of), got me thinking. This is nearly 2 hours of song, one after another, by the same person. Cannot possibly spare the time to watch the entire album, but let’s see what she sounds like, shall we ?.
Seven Spanish Angels, was the first song she sang.

I really don’t know whether it was her “accent”, or what it was. I was immediately hooked on to this Skandinavian Queen, who sang the lyrics in her own inimitable fashion, with the best arrangement of this song, that I have heard, and plenty of STARS have sung this song.
I loved the rendition by Heidi, so I decided to listen to the next song, maybe I was expecting too much, to hear two great songs in a row !!.

Wrong. 31songs later, I realized that this Queen could not only sing in that cute accent of hers, she also sang some of the BEST Country songs that I had not heard in a long time.

Her backing band were faultless, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of every song.

I have decided that I will feature Heidi on e’Lanka, via my “Kelly Klassics” column, regularly, because I do feel that, our Members & readers are special, and deserve only the very best in Music, that will hopefully bring them many precious memories to go with it. Enough said. Ladies and Gentlemen, here she is, especially for you, in 2022. THE  SKANDINAVIAN QUEEN OF COUNTRY MUSIC HERSELF.
