LNKAY consists of Stockholm based Ellen Stokstad. She calls her genre ”anxiety pop” - joyful, dance friendly - with an honest message. Her music usually has one foot in the nineties and the other one is carefree and stomping to the beat of the strong contemporary woman.
The name, LNKAY is an abbreviation of another Ellen, Ellen Key, a prominent feminist in Sweden who raised her voice in the 1800’s. The choice of muse is a stand that rings through everything LNKAY does. How she speaks about uncomfortable topics, dances however she wants, and how she portrays herself.

LNKAY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's a storm coming
Cutting through the walls of her paradise
Hear them angels singing
They're singing
Sad songs
Love songs
And they're singing like
Love songs
And it hit me like
And it hit me like a hurricane
A bullet through my skin
Bullet through my skin

Used to be my runaway
Now burning through my skin
Burning through my skin
You just
Pulled the trigger
Hey
Pulled the trigger
Hey
Pulled the trigger

Hey
And it hit me like a hurricane
A bullet through my skin
Bullet through my skin
Ey ey
I can see the bruises of the fire
There's a heart aching
Uncovering the sadness in her eyes
And them angels dancing
They're dancing
Sad beats
Heartbeats
And they're dancing like
Bad beats
Bad shit
And it hit me like
And it hit me like a hurricane
A bullet through my skin
Bullet through my skin
