The other day I received a notification from Twitter telling me I had reached one thousand followers on Twitter. It really cheered me up! I started tweeting back in 2009 and have written close to twenty-eight thousand tweets about everything from music, movies and TV series I like, to LGBT rights and updates about mine and Larry Forsberg's synthpop project Eurotix.
It may not be a lot compared to famous people on Twitter, but to me it's huge. So I would like to thank all of you who are following me on Twitter. It means a lot to me.
Mine and Larry Forsberg's synthpop project Eurotix just released the new EP "The Best Of Times". The title track received the highest number of votes in a poll where our listeners got to choose the next single. The song means a lot to me since I wrote the lyrics myself and because the sound is inspired by my favourite genre: italo disco.
The EP includes a new radio edit of the title track and the bonus tracks "Face Down" – an homage to my favourite Kim Wilde track – and "You Won't See Me Dancing". Finally, we've included a Hi-NRG remix of the album track "Su-Su-Superman", inspired by the sound of iconic producer Bobby Orlando.
Check out the gay themed video down below. It was made using "The Sims 4". The EP is out now on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon UK and Amazon US.
"The Best Of Times" tracklist:
1. The Best Of Times (Radio Edit)
2. Face Down
3. You Won't See Me Dancing
4. Hi-NRG Superman
I can't believe it's been a year and a day since my dear friend Charlotta Cederlöf passed away. I can't find the words to explain how much I miss her, she's on my mind every day. I recently found this postcard she sent me for Christmas back in 2013. It shows her own embroidery art of a character from "Game Of Thrones":
The Eurotix track "Let's Die Young" was a tribute to CC and the way she felt back in the eighties. Considering how she died, I can't listen to the song without tearing up:

I came across the following comment on a forum about a TV series:
"Gay kissing. I mean, really, does the general viewing public want to see this? Call me a homophobe. I don't want to see it. Turned me off to an otherwise watchable show."
I just had to write a reply:
"I'm gay and I don't want to see negative, stupid comments like yours. So I guess we're even. Yes, you might be a homophobe, but more than that, you're a coward and an insensitive person. I'm not offended by all the straight kissing that dominate TV in general. So I wish you would just cut the crap, man up and realise that people are different.
Gay love shouldn't be hidden away just because it's not your 'cup of tea'. Gay people exist. That's life. Just accept it and your life will be a lot better, trust me. It will save you a lot of anger and pain. It might even help you gain some new, interesting friends."
