| "Worth it" - Aleksander With feat. Lene Marlin |
Already back in the previous months, we reported the news of a collaboration between Lene and former Norwegian-Idol winner Aleksander With in writing a couple of songs and we hinted that probably one of them could be put into his new album. Now, the time seems to be arrived, since, on October 19th, will be released in Norway "Worth it", where Aleksander With duets with Lene. This song is the second single from With's upcoming album "Still awake".
"Worth it" will be digitally released also in Italy on October 16th and on IBS.it you can find the single cover. For a pre-listening check out amazon.fr (even though the clip doesn't contain the part where Lene is singing).
Thanks Andrea for pointing this news out. |

| Happy Birthday Lene! |
It's 29 years since a wonderful little girl was born, a girl who 10 years ago lit up our hearts and is now still more radiant. On her birthday day she wanted to give us as a present a new blog on her myspace with 4 pics of her last trip to Italy, in particular at Fnac in Milan, where she released her new album in Italy.
In all the years we've been near to her, there are very few words of wishes we've not used yet, but we think feelings don't need many words to be shown. Facts count and we do believe that regarding the facts there's always been a strong mutual friendship, as the pics posted by Lene can only to some extent show.
So there's no need to use many words to tell Lene how much we love her and in such a special day we can't but wish her a world of happiness and thousand of these occasions to meet soon again.
Happy Birthday Lene! |

| Interview to Roberto Casalino on lene.it Myspace! |
A few weeks ago, our fan Stephy pointed out on a website an interview to the Italian singer/songwriter Roberto Casalino. Besides being the author of some songs of Italian "X Factor" winner Giusy Ferreri's latest album, he just released his first solo album "L'atmosfera nascosta" ("The hidden atmosphere").
In the interview we got to know that one song of the record - "Mi manchi" ("I miss you") - has something to do with Lene. In fact, the inspiration for writing it came to Roberto while he was listening to Lene's "Another day"!
Quoting his words: "This song was born on a train. I was going to Tuscany to meet some friends of mine. I was listening to "Another day", a very gloomy and intimate album by Lene Marlin, on my Ipod. I was looking outside the window, it was raining and suddenly I got the urge to take the notebook I always bring with me. I turned my Ipod down and I wrote everything that came to my mind about a relationship ended a few months before. I immediately recorded the melody, suggested by words, on my mobile. And "Mi manchi" was born".

| Lene Marlin at TV2 "Sommertid" |
Yesterday evening Lene Marlin appeared as one of TV2 programme "Sommertid"'s guests.
She was interviewed by programme host Øyvind Fjeldheim; in the chat, she underlined the importance
to keep separate her private and professional lives. Then, questions focused on her latest album "Twist the truth": Lene stated she seeked a quality work and it needs to be listened several times
to be fully appreciated.
After the interview, she performed live "Here we are", playing the guitar together with Tommy Kristiansen (second guitar) and Renate Engevold (violin).
A big thank you to Tef Johs for the English translation of the interview over at lene-marlin.info and to koletz for the performance video
