MP3: Parken - Jag har varit vilsen, Lisa

I wasn't all that Impressed by Parken's fIrst sIngle <I>"Åt helvete med hImlen"I>, though I understand It was consIdered to be somewhat of an IndIe club hIt earlIer thIs year. I don't doubt Its appeal among that partIcular socIal subset, I'm just not feelIng It. Parken's new sIngle <I>"Jag har varIt vIlsen, LIsa"I> however, Is great and totally justIfIes all hype. It's got bounce! And a far, far catchIer refraIn. I'd even say It's good enough to forgIve Itsatrap.com/mp3.php?t=733">a lapfull of beer. It's even more ImpressIve when you consIder that thIs came from someone In The Chrysler. Who knew he had It In hIm?
