    My Guilty Pleasure used to be one of my "fall asleep" albums. To this day I'm not sure if I've ever actively listened to the back half of it, because I almost always nodded off midway through the album.

    Happy to see that she's still making music! I'm going to have to add her back into my music library and listen to what she's done since.

      I post more metal to ~music these days, but glad one of my Nordic pop gems made a mark with you like the old days.

        Also: HOW COOL IS IT that this site and community has lasted long enough that we can talk about "the old days" now? In my mind Tildes is still "new" and I joined "maybe two years ago?"

          I'll often think of myself as new around here sometimes, especially when I'm tagging my way through posts from that first year of Tildes.

          I didn't join until the site was 14 months old, but it feels like I missed a lifetime of characters. I'll often click on an old username and fall down a rabbit hole into a time capsule.

    Nice! +1 for this. I came across this the other day when looking for my faves released for the week of May 30. An unrelated twitch stream I watch often plays a lot of music from the italo disco genre/scene as background music and Sally Shapiro's music is inspired/influenced by that too and it instantly caught my ear, and mixing it with synthpop/synthwave/etc is a natural fit

    I think italo disco's adjacency musically to new wave / etc is why I'm drawn to some of it.
