Her musical style is a mix of jazz, cabaret and blues. In high school she was in a metal band called Nobody and later on also called LiviaGray
Her first record Late Night Heartbroken Blues was recorded and released late 2006 and spawned the singles Oh Boy and High On You. The sophomore album God Put A Rainbow In the Sky was released just months later in May 2007, the lead single from the album was the song I'm Sorry, He's Mine - a song about how she stole her best friend's boyfriend just because she wanted him over the night.
She continued to release new albums in record speed when her new album Songs of A Rag Doll was released October 19th 2007 and she had now released three albums within a year. She told Swedish Groove magazine that vacation for her meant going into the studio. The album came with the single Gotta Leave My Troubles Behind which had some success on the Swedish "tracks" charts where the people of Sweden vote for their favorite songs each week.
In 2007 she was also featured on the famous Swedish artist Lars Winnerbäcks lead single Om Du Lämnade Mig Nu from his album Daugava. The single became a huge hit and was #1 on the track charts as well as the singles charts and lead to national recognition for Miss Li. In 2008 she released the compilation album Best of 061122-071122 which included her best songs from the past three albums and some unreleased material including the song Good Morning.
In the summer of 2008 she sang the song Oh Boy on the popular Sing-A-Long show Allsång På Skansen that has over a million viewers every week. This lead to the single becoming far more popular than it was at its first release and it went to #8 on the Swedish singles charts.
After an uncharacteristically lengthy break, she released her 4th album Dancing the Whole Way Home in March 2009.
All I Need Is You
Miss Li Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don´t need no pills to make me calm, and
I don´t need no beer to make me wild, no
I don´t need no booze to make me warm
No baby,
There is only one thing
Yeah honey,
And I don´t need no porn to turn me on, no
I don´t need no other when you´re gone
I don´t need no one to say I´m cute, no
I don´t need it to write this silly song
No baby,
There is only one thing
Yeah honey,
All I need is you
Yeah baby,
There is only one thing
Yes honey,
All I need is you
And I don´t need no DVDs or TV
I don´t need no luxury or fame
I don´t need no dirty bloody money, and
I don´t need no sugar in my veins
No, all...
All I need is you...
All I need is you,
I need you
And I don´t need no water colour palette
I don´t need it to colour up my life
I don´t need no unnecessary things, no
I don´t need it to be a faithful wife, no
There is only one thing
Yeah honey,
All I need is you
Yeah baby,
There is only one thing
Yeah honey,
All I need is you
In Miss Li's song "All I need is you," the lyrics depict a person who declares that they don't need any external sources to experience any negative or positive emotion; they only need their partner. The song's first verse emphasizes that the singer does not require any drugs, pills, beer or booze to feel happy, content, or wild; only their partner can provide them with these feelings. The same goes for the second verse, where the singer expresses that they don't need porn, compliments, or anything else to feel turned on, confident, or loved.
The chorus affirms that the only thing that the singer needs is their partner, and without them, they would be lost in their feelings. The third verse continues this sentiment by stating that the singer doesn't need luxury, fame, or money to feel fulfilled; they only need their partner. They even go as far as to say that they don't need any unnecessary things to be a faithful partner. The song's final repetition of the chorus solidifies the singer's message of not needing anything else but their lover.
In summary, the lyrics of "All I need is you" tell the story of a person who doesn't need anything else in life besides their partner.
