Violet Days Shares "Your Girl"


Check out "Your Girl" from Stockholm based Violet Days, the moniker (inspired by her grandmothers name) used by Swedish singer/songwriter Lina Hansson. Enjoy this pop gem.


“I guess this song is my way of saying that sometimes you need to feel like you're more than just enough for someone. That you want to feel special and deserve not to be taken for granted. It's like being kept in an emotional limbo where you don't know what anyone feels anymore, cause there's no interaction, and that sucks.” -- Lina Hansson

The Wild Wild released Kids, March 2016. You can pick it up HERE.

Dropping the needle on any part of The Wild Wild's debut EP Kids is to be immersed in retro sonics reminiscent of 80's synth based greats Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Springsteen and U2. In fact, Dunn is quick to reference the classic U2 track from 1984's "Bad" with its "wide awake, I'm not sleeping" refrain, when describing his artistic philosophy. "To be awake, eyes wide open to beauty and magic, that's my life philosophy, it makes you fearless knowing that the universe is ever conspiring for your happiness and something magical is about to happen right now. I don't want to sleep through it."

About The Film
Director Antoine Fuqua brings his modern vision to a classic story in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures’ and Columbia Pictures’ The Magnificent Seven. With the town of Rose Creek under the deadly control of industrialist Bartholomew Bogue (Peter Sarsgaard), the desperate townspeople employ protection from seven outlaws, bounty hunters, gamblers and hired guns – Sam Chisolm (Denzel Washington), Josh Farraday (Chris Pratt), Goodnight Robicheaux (Ethan Hawke), Jack Horne (Vincent D’Onofrio), Billy Rocks (Byung-Hun Lee), Vasquez (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), and Red Harvest (Martin Sensmeier). As they prepare the town for the violent showdown that they know is coming, these seven mercenaries find themselves fighting for more than money.
