BAO & Helen Sjöholm " Sommaren Du Fick ( Story Of A Heart ) ( 2009 )
" Story Of A Heart "
Released on June 26th, 2009 ( Sweden )
Released on July 6th, 2009 ( UK )
The first international album of Benny Andersson Band (in Sweden known as Benny Anderssons Orkester (BAO) was released in Sweden on 26 June 2009 and in the UK and Europe at the beginning of July. The Swedish version of the album contains the Swedish language version of "Story of a Heart" as a bonus track.
Marie Helen Sjöholm (born 10 July 1970) is a Swedish singer, actress and musical theatre performer who lives in Gamla Enskede in Stockholm. She grew up in Sundsvall and started to sing in choirs at an early age, working, among others, with Swedish conductor Kjell Lönnå. By the end of the 1980s she toured with the group "Just For Fun".
Her big breakthrough occurred in 1995 when she created the title role in Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus' Kristina från Duvemåla, which she played on and off for nearly four years (during the musical's entire run). Minneapolis Star and Tribune in its review of the concert version of the musical performed by the original cast in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1996 described her as "extraordinary" (October 14, 1996, page 05B). In 1998, she played Hodel in Fiddler on the Roof, taking a break from Kristina. In 2000, she returned to Malmö Music Theatre to portray the role of Fantine in Les Misérables, and in 2002 she created the role of Florence in the reconceived Swedish production of Chess, opposite original London star Tommy Körberg as Anatoly. Having left this production upon closing in 2003, Sjöholm took part in Chinarevyn, a revue starring many well-known Swedish performers including Magnus Härenstam, Lasse Berghagen, Loa Falkman, Sissela Kyhle and herself.

" Story Of A Heart "
It must have been him,
Just a glimpse of a face in the crowd,
That's all it takes,
My heart is racing.

I stand in a trance,
As I stare at the back of a bus,
Knowing there's no use denying,
I can't stop thinking about us.


The story of a heart
The story all of it mine,
Then you took it from me,
Every glorious line.
I was safe and warm,
And now I'm out in the cold,
And I know I shouldn't have told my story.

Story of a heart,
I laid myself open wide,
Yet to read the pages,
Where the ink hadn't dried,
All emotions pent up inside, my story.


I try to resist,
But the images keep coming through,
So many years,
Still I'm defenceless.

The house by the lake,
His hands resting awhile on the oars,
Speaking with quiet conviction,
Carefully unlocking doors.


The story of a heart,
The story all of it mine,
Then you took it from me,
Every glorious line.
I was safe and warm,
And now I'm out in the cold,
And I know I shouldn't have told my story.

Story of a heart,
I laid myself open wide,
Yet to read the pages,
Where the ink hadn't dried,
All emotions pent up inside, my story.


Did he see me,
Or did I just imagine it all,
Putting a face on a stranger,
A face I find more and more hard to recall

The story of a heart,
I laid myself open wide,
Yet to read the pages,
Where the ink hadn't dried.
Swept away and lost in love,
What was I to do,
I just had to read it to you, my story.

The story of a heart,
The story all of it mine,
Then you took it from me,
Every glorious line.
I was safe and warm,
And now I'm out in the cold,
And I know I shouldn't have told my story.

Story of a heart,
I laid myself open wide,
Yet to read the pages,
Where the ink hadn't dried,
All emotions pent up inside, my story

  • Jim, How did you do that transitional part?! - I'm so impressed that I've grabbed the nearest hat that I can find... Now I'm going to take It off to you!! :) <3

  • @Simulationofvirtue Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to enjoy one of my favorite videos! After almost 300 videos to my credit ( 299 on this channel ) I've had many chances to perfect my syncing abilities but in the end, it all comes down to a good ear and dumb luck! I use nothing else but Movie Maker to make my videos and I've gotten more out of it than one could ever imagine! Stop by anytime and check out some of my latest videos, you won't be disappointed!

    Peace....Jim

  • WOW Helen Sjoholm keeps surprising me with her songs!! This song is just unbelievable good!! The Swedish and English version all synced into one... beautiful!! She's one greatly talented singer!! Thnx for putting this up! xo from Canada!

  • She's a unbelievable singer and I myself found her music only just recently. This process of syncing these two songs took almost 2 hours to do but I was lucky and hit it right on. Thank you Nat for looking in.

    Peace from Iowa....Jim~

  • Jim - It amazes me how you did the transition from the Swedish version to the English version at 2:15. It was so smooth it was like Helen never left the microphone - just switched languages. There is something about this song that just keeps pulling me back. Love it! —Tom

  • Trust me Tom....the transition between the two songs took almost two hours of work just to get right....I got lucky I guess and I'm extremely happy with the outcome

    Thank you for looking in!

  • After finding Frida in the 70s, I didn't think anyone would ever come close. Seems I was wrong (and how) I think I may just possibly be in love.........Sync is a work of genius ( and several hours of blood, sweat and tears I imagine) What's not to love? Thanks so much for this.

  • What an amazing performer; she's so sensitive to her material, and we love her! Thanks for this. Especially liked her with Bryn Terfel. And great work to sync this!

  • Sången är jättefint. Allt vad Benny Andersson skriver måste vara skönt :) Sången är lika vacker som ABBAs låtar. Tack Helen, tack Benny för så många sköna melodier!

  • Superb job Jim - take a bow.

  • Absolutely brilliant song, brilliantly synched. Very well done and many, many thanks.
