Amy Diamond的艺人档案
Amy Diamond于1992年4月15日出生在瑞典的Norrköping,在欧洲是一位非常著名的流行歌手。
Amy Diamond从两岁开始就喜欢唱歌,她的第一次登台演出是在她七岁的时候参加一个名为Småstjärnorna的电视节目,并赢得了第三名。2004年,她发布了自己的第一首商业意义上的单曲 “What's in It for Me“,并获得了巨大的成功。这首歌在当年三月份的瑞典流行音乐排行榜上获得了第一的好成绩。但最开始瑞典的电视台拒绝在电视上播放这首歌的MV,因为他们不能接受一个小孩演唱关于成人间的关系的歌曲,但是Amy Diamond并不这样认为,她觉得这首歌曲的主题是关于友谊的;尽管遭到了电视台的封杀,在Amy Diamond和Elin Lanto一起旅行的时候,”What’s in It for Me” 还是在各大电台热播了起来。
借着第一支单曲的成功,Amy顺势于2005年三月推出了她的首张专辑 “This Is Me Now” ,这张专辑卖了150000份,是当时瑞典黄金唱片销量标准的三倍。至此,瑞典的各大电视台终于开始关注她了,截止到2005年底,她总共在20多个电视节目上亮相。
2006年她发布了第二张专辑 “Still Me Still Now” ,2007年11月发布了第三张专辑 “Music in Motion” 。
2008年的11月发布了一张圣诞专辑 “En Helt Ny Jul“(意思是:一个崭新的圣诞节)。这几张专辑也都取得了不俗的成绩,其中的一些歌曲,比如 “What’s In It For Me”, “Welcome To The City”, “Champion”, “Shooting Star”, “Don’t Cry Your Heart Out”, “It Can Only Get Better”, “Stay My Baby”, “Is It Love”, “Thank You” 等都被人们广为传唱。
Amy diamond于2009年再度参加了瑞典歌唱比赛 “Melodifestivalen” ,她的参赛曲目是由Alexander Bard、Bobby Ljunggren和Oscar Holter制作的电子乐 “It’s My Life” ,但很遗憾的在最终的决赛中不敌H.E.A.T.,没能获得第一。Amy diamond的第五张专辑(包括 “It’s My Life”) “Swings and Roundabouts” 于2009年10月22日发行。
Amy Diamond was a mere 12 years old when she released her debut single, the pop-reggae "What's in It for Me," which took Scandinavia by storm, spending 19 weeks in a Top Ten chart position in her native Sweden -- but her youth and cherubic, clear-eyed appearance belied her rich, powerful voice and sassy self-assurance. Born Amy Linnéa Deasismont in 1992 to an English father and Swedish mother, Diamond spent her childhood in both England and Sweden, studying dance, acting in theater and television, figure skating, and participating in singing and performance competitions. Winning one of these talent contests earned her the opportunity to record in a studio, which led to a contract with the Bonnier Amigo Music Group and the release of "What's in It for Me" in February 2005. This Is Me Now, her debut album, consisted of bright ska and reggae-inflected pop, along with a live recording of Alicia Keys' "If I Ain't Got You," which showcased Diamond's vocal chops, and a rendition of that ultimate pre-adolescent redhead anthem, Annie's "Tomorrrow."
Despite its obvious youth appeal and blithely motivational, child-friendly lyrical themes (the notable exception being the age-inappropriate lead single, with Diamond incongruously asserting "I refuse to be your mother"), This Is Me Now boasted sophisticated pop production and accomplished songwriting that -- along with Diamond's confident, charismatic voice -- elevated it beyond simple children's music. A distribution deal with Warner and a European tour helped the album achieve success throughout Northern Europe that summer; back home in Sweden she racked up a handful of awards and nominations, including the recently established Nordic Music Award for "What's in It for Me." Released in 2006, Still Me Still Now unsurprisingly covers similar territory to its predecessor ("Don't Cry Your Heart Out" being the lite-reggae breezer of a lead single this time out), but with a more pronounced Broadway influence and several inspirational ballads.
