Biography

Norwegian singer Kari Rueslåtten (born October 3, 1973) began her career in the cult doom metal band The 3rd and the Mortal with whom she recorded the EP Sorrow in 1993 and the full-length album Tears Laid in Earth in 1994. She left the band to join the project Storm and recorded Nordavind and her first solo release Demo Recordings, both being Nordic-folk-music styled.
Spindelsinn, her first official solo album came out in 1997. She was nominated as best vocal artist in the Norwegian Grammy Awards as best female artist at the Norwegian Hit-Awards. The following year the second release Mesmerised came out. A mellower album, with more personal lyrics in which she left the folk-acoustic style in favour of exploring more modern sounds.
She became tired of relying on producers to get the sounds she wanted for her songs so she decided to study production and went to London, England for a couple of years. After joining the Swedish label GMR Music Group Kari released a come back album, the experimental Pilot which contains a lot of modern sounds reminiscent of Björk.
In January 2005, her most recent album Other People's Stories was issued.


Lyrics

OTHER PEOPLE'S STORIES

Come take my hand and
we'll walk into the woods
This is my kingdom
Now this is your home

If you believe, sometimes pretend
If you fight back, in the end you shall see what it's worth

Other people's stories
They are just like mine
But for one thing
I did what they planned
In my darkest hour
I just killed a man
With a silver bullet
in the barrel of my gun

I should know better
By the age of 28
But i took the chance and
I never once looked back

If you believe, sometimes pretend
If you fight back, in the end you shall see what it's worth

Other people's stories
They are just like mine
But for one thing
I did what they planned
In my darkest hour
I just killed a man
With a silver bullet
in the barrel of my gun

And the sun climbs up over Victoria Hill
I will stop and take one last breath
Then they'll come for me

Other people's stories
They are just like mine
But for one thing
I did what they planned
In my darkest hour
I just killed a man
With a silver bullet
in the barrel of my gun


I did it for you
I did it for you
I did it for you
I did it for you
I did it for you
