Koop - Strange Love (OFFICIAL) HQ

Koop is Oscar Simonsson & Magnus Zingmark.
When listening to Koops music it's somehow easy to believe that it's played by a small orchestra, but in fact the music is based on samples. Thousands of small clips from records puzzled together into new songs. All the drums, strings, horn sections and choires are actually sampled! This is a very time consuming way to make music (it's one of the reasons it takes such long time to make a koop album), but it's the only way to create the surreal Koop sound. One thing though, that for sure aren't sampled, is the vocals. Many singers has blessed the Koop albums with their talent, and on Koop Islands the singers are : Ane Brun, Yukimi Nagano, Hilde Louise Asbjornsen, Rob Gallagher and Mikael Sundin. Strange Love is sung by Hilde Louise Asbjornsen and is taken from the album "Koop Islands". Lyrics:
strange love
even though you hurt me I feel
blessed love
baby I'm your puppet
on a string
making me tumble and swing
trouble's what you bring
strange love

strange how
you control my every little
move now
hanging from your strings
is all I know
starring in your puppet show
never let me go
strange love

all the things
you've said and done
there's no space
for me to run
baby I've lost and you have won
cause' all I really want is

strange love

Agreed, Koop's music is amazing. I remember the first time I heard 'Waltz for Koop' on Yahoo Music in 2003. I bought the CD the same day and have listened to it many times since.

Long Live Koop!
