Лена
Филипссон родилась в провинции Смоланд, Южная
Швеция. Одержав в 16 лет победу в детском
музыкальном конкурсе, Лена начала успешную
музыкальную карьеру, заняв в 1986 году второе место
в шведском национальном финале Евровидения с
песней “Love is eternal”.
Годом позже она участвует в конкурсе с песней “Dancing in the Neon Light”,
занявшей пятое место. В 1988 году Лена в третий раз
была близка к победе, когда её песня “Once Again”
заняла на конкурсе второе место. Лена также
принимала участие в конкурсе в качестве автора
текстов и композитора. Лена
признана самой сексуальной женщиной Швеции. Она
провела неколько сольных туров по Швеции,
участвовала в некоторых благотворительных
программах, в
шоу-программе “Rhapsody in Rock”,
неоднократно появлялась на телевидении. Её первым
кумиром был Девид Кассиди, покоривший её не
столько своим пением, сколько своей внешностью.
Группе “Sweet”
удалось, напротив, полностью завоевать её сердце.
Тем не менее, её музыкальные вкусы всё же больше
склоняются в сторону стилей synth, disco и soul, чем к
рок-н-роллу. Учась в
гимназии, Лена собиралась стать инженером
гражданского строительства. Кроме того, она
неплохо играет в настольный теннис – в своё
время она даже заняла пятое место на первенстве
Швеции. Поп-звезда
Томас «Оруп» Эрикссон сочинил песню “Det gor ont”
специально для Лены. В 1988 он выпустил свой первый
сольный альбом, за которым последовало еще семь.
В Швеции он пользуется большой популярностью как
музыкант и композитор. |
Lena Philipsson hails from
Smaland in southern Sweden. After winning a childrens’ talent contest at the age of 16
she went from success to success, taking part in the Swedish national finals of the
Eurovision Song Contest for the first time in 1986 with “Love is eternal,” where she
came second. The following year she competed with “Dancing in the Neon Light,” and
finished fifth. In 1988 it was almost third time lucky when she came second once again
with, yes, a song called “Once Again.” Lena has also taken part in the contest as a
composer of lyrics and music. Lena has been voted Sweden’s sexiest woman. She has toured Sweden with her own stage shows and has participated in several charity galas, toured with show “Rhapsody in Rock” and has made frequent television appearances. Her first idol was David Cassidy. Not because she’d ever heard him sing, but because he was a ‘suitable’ pin-up. The group “Sweet,” on the other hand, totally fascinated her. Otherwise, her musical tastes haven’t so much been Rock’n’Roll as synth, disco and soul. At upper secondary school she opted for the structural engineering programme and she was once a keen table tennis player – at one point she ranked 5th in Sweden. The pop star, Thomas “Orup” Eriksson composed the winning song “Det gor ont” especially for Lena. As an artist, he released his first album in 1988. Since then Orup has released seven albums. He is very well respected and loved by the Swedish people. Information - eurovision.tv |
