Her music is quite unique in Swedish music history, since it's based on the American singer/songwriter tradition. Sophie also appears on the Dawson's Creek soundtrack with her ballad, I'll Remember You and has since recorded 7 albums.
Upon recording a few songs at a local studio, she decided to send the demos to three record companies, with no special expectations. Soon Sony Sweden gave her a phone call and offered her a record deal. At this stage, she had never played in front of an audience. Sophie started to record her self-titled debut album in 1995. The album was produced and arranged by Lars Halapi, a long time collaborator who has subsequently worked on all her material.
She was awarded a Grammy at the Swedish Grammy awards as Best Newcomer in 1995, she was also nominated for Best Female Pop Singer. Her album managed Gold status both in Sweden and Japan. After promoting her debut in the US, she finally started to work on her new album in the Autumn of 1997. This second effort entitled Precious Burden came the following year. Since the turbulence of the first album release, Zelmani has started saying no to interviews and only embarks on tour for short periods of time.
The third, fourth and fifth albums, Time to Kill (1999), Sing and Dance (2002) and Love Affair (2003) quickly followed. Ten years after her debut she released a best-of album titled A Decade Of Dreams which also included two new tracks.
Further albums released after this 'best of' are: Memory Loves You (2007), The Ocean and Me (2008), I'm The Rain, (2010), Soul (2011).
Zelmani has also contributed music to the TV series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Dawson's Creek". Her cover of Bob Dylan's "Most Of The Time" appears on the soundtrack to "Masked and Anonymous", and also on the album Cohen - The Scandinavian Report.

I'm The Rain
Sophie Zelmani Lyrics
I'm The Rain Open your eyes now What do you see Isn’t the view differen…
If I Could If I could Give anything I could If my thoughts could do…
Interior Design There's not gonna be no stairs, no Just a ladder to…
It Knows I know where, it revives It plays so dead But I know…
Not With You Kissed by the rain not by you Warmed by the spring…
Our Man How could we say goodbye How can we say goodbye How make…
Ready My new love is you see Tied to the dock and…
Song Of The Night This must be my last song for you All of me…
The Years The years betray me now They usually count Supposed to be …
To Be Forgiven I’ve got to choose a road with Many churches along I need…
You Can Always Long For May Don't go after him Don't go after him Don't go after him …
