Ana Johnsson

Ana Johnsson's sound is fresh and full of life. This album is great. Ana is not well know by American music lovers but should be. She's a talented artist and this album is worth checking out.

I originally heard Anna on one of the freeview music TV channels and was totally "blown away" by the track "we are" I desparately wanted to know who she was, as she did not get much profile in the UK. In the end I did a search for "We are" and it threw up Amazon, hence I found the CD.
I bought the album mainly on the strength of that track alone but was pleasantly surprised that I actually liked every single track on it. (that is a rare thing).
Sadly in the UK we have to put up mostly with "lift music" and tacky stuff
like "I wanna be the next pop star"
Anna Rocks and the UK jocks are shaking in their socks, their loss not hers. The internet breaks us free from the chains of our oppresed media and gives us a choice that is ours, not theirs.
Anna is a rock chic to the power of ten and a rare treat.

i dont know how it got 5 stars and im not trying to discredit this artist but Way I Am is totally meaningless...the writing doesnt stand out at all and if u dont believe it check any song's lyrics. Ana got a record deal for being a pretty blonde that doesnt take off her clothes, anythg beside that is really ordinary...
Words trying to Rhyme, dependant vocals and such a transparent music...ive heard this for like one week then left it out because honestly, there are lots of artists out there that actually deserve to be listened to, theyre not as pretty, not as famous but far better than this one.

This Swedish pop/rock star rocks your ears off until theres nothing left. All of her songs are 5. If I could get this cd to a 1000000 then I would. This girl can perform and sing the best. I can't really explain anything more but that she is perfect. And I hope this was helpful for you!!!

This Cd is one of the most best cds of all time. The Swedish Pop star is rocking my ears. I hope everyone else enjoys this cd. The songs are way to good.

Ana does it again. I was worried about this not being as good as the last album, but its wonderful. The cover of the album is awesome. The music is great every song is good, I can't wait to hear more from her.

01. Little Angel (3.5/5) - This is the "intro" to the album. And actually for an intro, it's not that bad. It's kind of just Ana's voice and a xylophone-sounding instrument. Like I said, not too bad.
02. Break Through Time (3.5/5) - Starts out with Ana singing with an acoustic guitar and then gradually builds up. Good lyrics with a good message. "If I could break through time, I'd wipe it all and come out clean. Redo it all, like it should have been..."
03. Exception (3/5) - I like the music more than I like the lyrics, which I'm not saying are terribly bad. Rockin' guitar and Ana pelting out note after note.
04. Catch Me If You Can (4/5) - The guitar really leads the song here. It's just a really great song to get blow off some steam.
05. What If (5/5) - Awesome. The lyrics sort of speak to each person, cause each person has their own meaning of this song. Great soft background guitar on this track.
06. Playing God (4.5/5) - An awesome song with awesome lyrics and awesome music... pretty awesome, huh?
07. Burn (4.5/5) - A darker song about revenge. I'm pretty sure everyone can relate to it. It's bascially just Ana and her smokey voice singing with a guitar.
08. Days of Summer (5/5) - Great single for Ana. It's a fun-loving free song about the good ol' days of summer. Let's all take a moment to reminisce...
09. The Harder We Fall (4/5) - "Gonna stray, it seems we lost our way..." Well Ana certainly hasn't lost her way with this song. It's a great song with a steady guitar in the background, and cool uses with stringed instruments.
10. Still (5/5) - I'd probably have to say this is my favorite song on the album. It's a sad song about lost love, with kind of a 70's vibe. I love the beginning with the guitar, give it a listen...
11. Spit It Out (5/5) - Ana certainly spits it out with this song. It's all about those people who talk behind your back, and he or she needs to just say it to your face or shut up! Rockin' song!
12. Coming out Strong (5/5) - A great ending song (on the normal release). At almost 5 minutes long, she's just letting you know, you'll be stronger in the end.
13. Falling to Pieces (4/5) - Ana singing with an awesome guitar in the background, and the chorus is rockin'! "I'm out here alone, falling to pieces..."
14. If I'm Not Dreaming (4.5/5) - A darker song, but with the combination of the guitar and drums, it's not failing in the 'rock' category. Above all, a really nice song.

So above all, get this album. I personally didn't mind paying a little extra money for these bonus tracks. Even if you hadn't heard them, if you liked the album, you'd like them. PLUS there's a DVD that comes with it. It features a behind the scenes look at where Ana rights her songs and her in the studio; basically, you get inside her head. And there's also the "Exception" video.
F.Y.I. - The DVD is Region 2, so just be careful. But my computer allowed me to switch my Region and I could watch it, but that's probably not true for all computers.
But let's not end on a negative note, this album is a freakin' awesome album.

Well since your here to read here is some helpful info.
Ana is a most talented girl showing her videos and all of her handwritten music. Don't cry for pain, had a lot of soul in it. And it was a great song. To me she is teh most talented person I know. Other than a few other people. I'm her number one fan and love her music and I hope you do to.

Ana does it again. I was worried about this not being as good as the last album, but its wonderful. The cover of the album is awesome. The music is great every song is good, I can't wait to hear more from her.
