Petra Marklund
SEPTEMBER
Four years after her big breakthrough with the smash hit ”Satellites” September continues to rule the international charts. ”Cry for you” went top 10 in more than 15 countries and kept the 1 position at Billboard Dance Radio Airplay for three weeks. In the UK the single sold 250 000 copies, worldwide close to 1.5 million.
Putting on a memorable live show is important to this 24-year-old who loves touring as much as she enjoys singing and dancing. She also designs the clothes she wears on stage and likes to be involved in every step of the process. ”I was meant to do this”, she says. And seeing her touring and conquering Russia, Canada, Australia, Britain and USA we have to believe her.
Already at the age of ten Petra (yes, she was born in September) started planning her career. She took dancing lessons, sang all kinds of music and did all she could to prepare herself for a life on stage. There was never an alternative, never any doubts. She was determined to become a popstar - and a few years later she became one. At the age of 20 she received a Grammy in Sweden for Best Club/Dance-album of 2005 with “In orbit”. The same year platinum selling “Satellites” was the most played song on national radio in Sweden. It also reached 1 in the Spanish charts and was given a prize for Hit of The Year at the ESKA Music Awards in Poland. She even found herself at a higher position than long-time favourite Kylie Minogue as “Cry for you” landed a spot at the Billboard hot 100.
Ever since her debut single “La la la (Never give it up)” in 2003, Swedish singer and dancing queen Petra Marklund has worked together with songwriter and producer Jonas van der Burg and the two songwriters Niclas van der Burg and Anoo Bhagavan. Together they have continued to follow-up one hit with another without repeating themselves and without losing their audience. September has become a reliable provider of the catchiest pop and dance tunes you can imagine.
Hello September, how are you , I come to wish you a good Merry Christmas and fètes of end d' year. J' hope that health is good and that this New Year's Day 2010 will bring peace and love to us. Always with the pleasure of finding you. Large Kisses has you. Jean Christmas
Thank you September. Love your music and Love Stockholm. I was made to live somewhere like your hometown. I plan on moving their soon in hopes of starting a non-profit idea called Kidcorp Concerts to Corporations. The plan was to do benefit shows that purchased franchises that kids owned and worked. Something new that could hopefully inspire kids to think about being self employed. I would love to bring this idea to kids in as many locations around the World as possible with your help. Thanks again for brightening a pretty lousy day with some of your music. I can tell you understand!
It seems that Christmas time is here once again, and it is time again to bring in the New Year. We wish the merriest of Christmas to you and your loved ones, and we wish you happiness and prosperity in the year ahead. Yola
