It seems like a decade has passed when Lovekiller by Swedish popstar Darin first swept us off our feet, and the music video has FINALLY arrived! The quite literal promo video features Darin lying dead on the ground surrounded by a CSI crew and Angelina Jolie lookalike Dani Karlsson.

Or song of the week, rather.

Swedish Idol 2004 second placer Darin is very new to my ears, and I regret that I've overlooked his name quite a few times. Lame, I know. Anywho, what matters is that his upcoming single Lovekiller is VERY hard to snub. It's a big, bold, belt-y song complete with a choir that bellows out "MURDERER" in the "You're a cold-blooded murderer" bits. Lovekiller has the conviction and the build-up factor that come to par with its dramatic big band production. Rich, sweeping, and powerful in all its glory. To put it in a word: AMAZING.


Let me reiterate. AMAZING.
