( BACK IN THE SPOT )

(COMEBACK : MARIT LARSEN HAVENT BEEN ON STAGE SINCE JULY 18TH 2002 - THE VERY LAST M2M CONCERT - WHEN SHE PRESENTED HER BRAND NEW SONGS AT BLUE IN OSLO LAST NIGHT.

(MARIT LARSEN DID LAST NIGHT RETURN TO THE STAGE FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE M2M BREAK UP SUMMER 2002 : DARKER HAIR AND DARKER MUSIC.

(I COULDNT WAIT ANY LONGER. I HAVE WANTED TO DO THIS SO MUCH, says A PROUD MARIT LARSEN TO DAGBLADET AFTER HER FIRST SOLO CONCERT.

(FRIENDS,FRIENDS OF FRIENDS,THE PRESS,PRESIDENTS AND OTHER TALL GENTLEMEN FROM THE MULTI INTERNATIONAL NORWEGIAN COMPANIES ALL FILLED UP BLUE LAST NIGHT.

(MARIT PRESENTED 6 BRAND NEW SONGS : ONE BY THE PIANO MADE BY KAJA PEDERSEN, FOUR TOGHETER WITH A HARD ROCKING TRIO AND A SONG PERFORMED ALONE WITH THE GUITAR.)

( - I HAVE HAD A HUGE LONGING FOR PERFOMING. IN OTHER WORDS,I HAVE HAD A HUGE LONGING TO GET BACK ON STAGE. BUT I HAVE PLAYED ALL THIS TIME, she says.)
 
(FORMER M2M-COLLEGE MARION RAVN HAVE BEEN A LOT ON MEDIA, DOING PHOTOSHOOTS FOR A WEDDINGMAGAZINE AND NOT BEEN AFRAID AT ALL TO TALK ABOUT THE MILLION DOLLAR CONTRACT WITH ATLANTIC RECORDS. MARIT LARSEN HELD A LOW PROFILE AFTER THE M2M BREAK UP IN JULY 2002 ; WELL,SHE HAVENT HELD A PROFILE AT ALL.)

( YOU DIDNT WANT TO GIVE YOUR VERSION ON THE M2M BREAK UP? )

(- I AM A VERY CREATVIE HUMAN BEING, SO I GET TO EXPRESS MYSELF THROUGH MY SONGS. I WRITE HONEST LYRICS,WHERE I WRITE ABOUT ANYTHING. BUT I TRY TO WRAP IT IN,SO I DONT STEP TOO HARD ON SOMEONES FEET, says MARIT LARSEN, THAT AFTER ALL ADMIT SHE CAN BE SAD WHEN SHE THINKS OF M2M.)

(-IT IS LIKE,IF I SUDDENLY WRITE A POPSONG,THEN CAN I BE A LITTLE SAD. BUT IT ISNT TOO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT THAT. IT'S THE PAST NOW.)


(*POSION PASSION* AND *PEARL* WERE THE TWO FIRST SONGS SHE PERFORMED ON THE CONCERT LAST NIGHT)

( THE OTHER TITLES YOU WONT GET, I HAVEN'T EVEN TOLD THESE TITLES TO TONO!)

(RECORD ON MAKING.
SOME OF THE TIME AWAY FROM THE SPOT LIGHT,SHE HAS SPENT TO CATCH UP WITH STUDIES. IN JANUARY SHE COMPLETED SOME OF HER EXAMS FROM UPPER SECONDARY HIGH.)

( THEN I HAD TO TAKE A TWO WEEKS VACATION FROM PLAYING. I HAVE WRITTEN SONGS SINCE LAST SUMMER,she says.)

( YOU HAVE BEEN VERY TAKEN BY JONI MICHELL FOR A LONG TIME. IS THERE ANY OTHER ARTISTS THAT HAS LED YOU ON THE TRACK YOU ARE NOW?

(I GOT VERY BLOW AWAY BY PJ HARVEY ON A MUSIC FESTIVAL IN BELGIUM LAST ATUMN. SHE IS A REAL ARTIST. I AM TEACHING MYSELF ELECTRIC GUITART,MEN ISENT GOOD ENOUGH YET.

(WHEN WILL WE HEAR FROM YOU AGAIN?)

( THAT IS WHEN MY RECORD COMES OUT. IT IS A PROCESS GOING ON NOW. IN MY STUDIO AT HOME,THE REC-BUTTON IS ALWAYS ON,says A SUPER HAPPY MARIT LARSEN)
