The same year, she followed up with the Jonas Lundqvist collaboration " Fastnat för dig ", which spun diligently on P3 and received good mentions in a number of different blogs. The debut EP " Never the same / Always the same " was a collection of indie pop songs which according to GAFFA "Captures the Swedish melancholy perfectly". The intro track " Never Calm " was described as Sandra Beijer's most played song last year. In Nadja Evelina's world, we move through moments that remain long after you have experienced them. To be hopeful in someone's hall and hungover and lost in the stairwell. To stand on lonely subway platforms along the blue, not be able to get out of bed in Bredäng or tumble down Bondegatan in happiness. “The album was written during my first years in Stockholm. For me, it has been both about writing myself out of a love story, a kind of fuck you, but also about processing my move here, to conquer the new. By writing about different places and situations, the city has started to feel like mine, like home, and that process runs like a common thread through the songs. ”

When Nadja Evelina now releases music, she does it herself via her own, newly started record company Hjärtat Recordings. With full power over her art, she hopes that her vision is heard more clearly than ever - it must be felt, otherwise it can be. “For me, it felt like a natural step to go completely independent. Since writing is my most important thing, I wanted to be in a position where I can make creative decisions based solely on my own gut feeling. Now I am. It's the scariest and best thing I've ever done. ”

During the spring and summer of 2019, Nadja was out on her "Heartbreak Tour" where she played all over Sweden and also in Norway.

Fastnat för dig

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Även om du menar allvar
Om det nu är mig du vill ha
Så ska allt gå sönder nån gång
Kan du ta ett steg tillbaks
Jag är ful på nära håll

Men det är nåt som händer när du tittar på mig
Jag vet inte varför jag har fastnat för dig

Pulsen ökar blicken flackar
Hjärnan nekar hjärtat fattar
Men vi är nog bäst på avstånd
Om jag tar ett steg tillbaks
Är det bäst för båda oss

Men det är nåt som händer när jag tittar på dig
Och jag vet inte varför du har fastnat för mig
Men det är nåt som händer när jag tittar på dig
Och jag vet inte varför du har fastnat för mig

Ja det är nåt som händer när jag tittar på dig
Och jag vet inte varför du har fastnat för mig

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nadja Evelina's song "Fastnat för dig" express contradictory feelings of attraction and hesitation towards someone. The first lines acknowledge that the person might truly want the singer, but also suggests that everything will eventually fall apart. The singer's insecurity is revealed when she admits her unattractiveness up-close. However, the chorus suggests a mysterious, non-rational pull towards the person. Despite both parties recognizing that distance might be for the best, seeing each other triggers a physical and emotional reaction that they cannot explain.

The song seems to capture the ambiguous nature of attraction and love. On one hand, the fear of vulnerability and potential heartbreak makes the singer question the feasibility of a relationship. On the other hand, there is a strong allure that cannot be ignored. The singer seems to be caught in a dilemma between following her rational instincts and surrendering to the inexplicable force of attraction.

Line by Line Meaning

Även om du menar allvar
Even if you're serious

Om det nu är mig du vill ha
If it's me you want

Så ska allt gå sönder nån gång
Everything will eventually break

Kan du ta ett steg tillbaks
Can you take a step back

Jag är ful på nära håll
I am ugly up close

Men det är nåt som händer när du tittar på mig
But something happens when you look at me

Jag vet inte varför jag har fastnat för dig
I don't know why I've fallen for you

Pulsen ökar blicken flackar
Heart rate increases, gaze falters

Hjärnan nekar hjärtat fattar
The brain denies it, the heart understands it

Men vi är nog bäst på avstånd
But we are probably better at a distance

Om jag tar ett steg tillbaks
If I take a step back

Är det bäst för båda oss
It's best for both of us

Ja det är nåt som händer när jag tittar på dig
Yes, something happens when I look at you

Och jag vet inte varför du har fastnat för mig
And I don't know why you've fallen for me

Ja det är nåt som händer när jag tittar på dig
Yes, something happens when I look at you

Och jag vet inte varför du har fastnat för mig
And I don't know why you've fallen for me

Something like this...

Even if you seriously mean it.
If that’s me that you want.
It means everything will break at some point.

Can you take a step back?
I’m awfully close now.

But there’s something happening when you look at me.
I don’t know why I’m stuck on you.

My pulse is increasing, my eyes are gleaming.
My brain is denying, my heart is taking off.
But we’re probably best at a distance.
If I take one step back, it’s best for both of us.

But there’s something happening when I look at you.
And I don’t know why you’re stuck on me.
But there’s something happening when I look at you.
And I don’t know why you’re stuck on me.
Yes, there’s something happening when I look at you.
And I don’t know why you’re stuck on me.
