Analyse af Agnes Obels sang 'Riverside' og ungdomskultur

Agnes Caroline Thaarup Obel is a Danish singer-songwriter, she was born in 1981. Agnes Obel published her debut album “Philharmonics” the 4. October 2010 in Denmark, but the album has also been released in

France and Germany. In Denmark she has been at the top of the hit lists with her album for several weeks in a row in 2011. The album has also sold double platin. At the moment Agnes Obel lives in Berlin with her boyfriend, she is a very private person that separates her work from her personal life. She wants her carrier to be all about her music, so she isn’t any Lady Gaga, because Lady Gaga is more like a selling object. An object that sells good, not only by her music, but on how she dress and her twisted way of promoting herself. The music Agnes Obel makes is a good mix of a few genres, mostly the more quiet tunes. She is a big inspiration and her music touches a lot of people, just by the flouting melodies of her songs and the sound of her voice. She is a incomparable artist, you can’t compare her songs with other artist songs.

The song is a bit alternative, so it’s a kind of alternative genre or Indie.
