After meeting Swedish singer Love Olzon in 2003 and working with him and his brother, Simon Ryman, for a while, she found ways to develop her very own style, a mix of pop and folk. She released her first album Heartbreaktown on Sony in 2004.
In 2005 she released her second album Let There Be Love, almost completely written by herself, again with Love Olzon as producer. One week before its release in October, an EP called Visitor including a new version of "Heartbreaktown" came out.
Her album Pets & Friends was released April 2008 on her own label, Another Records.
Since the release of the album "Pets and Friends" Nina has toured all over Europe, played sold out shows, made TV-performances and received massive airplay Especially with the singles ”Combat Lover” and ”Beast”.
Red Leader Dream is an audio script for a seventh Star Wars saga that takes place on the desert planet Tatooine after "The Return of the Jedi". A true science fiction epic about love, hope and adventure viewed through a fantasy filter.
"When I was twelve I had a surgery done where metal rails were put into my back and during the long hospital stay, I saw the Star Wars films a countless number of times. Since then I have always wanted to play a role in the space masterpiece. After the somewhat unreal events in my very real life, I was inspired enough to write my own galactic saga " Nina says and stretches her robot back.
The only way to accomplish the task was to take the role as producer, casting director and record company boss herself. An exhausting and sometimes lonely job, but necessary to fulfill the vision.
The result was synthesized, atmospheric and rhythm-driven dreampop, where thoughts wander towards the Cocteau Twins, Enya and Stevie Nicks. Nina's strongest weapon, the infectious melodies and the almost supernatural and beautiful voice, has been given more room than ever.
The recording took place in Svenska Grammofon Studion in Gothenburg and participated did Jon Ölmeskog (Silverbullit), Linnea Olsson (Paintbox), Pontus Levahn (Torpedo and Tiger Lou), Jonas Gustafsson (Division of Laura Lee), and Ellekari Sander (The Tiny). And to mix the album Nina chose Christoffer Berg (Fever Ray, The Knife, Hird).
On November 5 Red Leader Dream will be released on the new label NinkinaRecordings with great hope that the album is accepted by George Lucas as a valid part of the Star Wars Extended Universe.
Separate Ways
Nina Kinert Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
but I'm wanting so to ask you
can I kiss you here?
and all your moderate words
burn into fire inside
and all I really wanna ask you is
I can touch you there?
We're like the flashing lightning divided into separate waysYeah I know you wanna talk
about more profound things
Than I could ever dream of
I haven't seen nothing yet
I really wish that I would know
things that will shatter you
There ain't not dripping from
the roof into my hands
We're like the flashing lightning divided into separate ways
These lyrics from Nina Kinert's song "Separate Ways" capture a sense of longing and desire between two people who are moving apart. The singer expresses their desire to be physically close to the person they are addressing, asking if they can kiss and touch them in certain places. The singer also acknowledges a disconnect between themselves and the other person, recognizing that the other person may want to talk about profound things beyond their own understanding. The refrain of "We're like the flashing lightning divided into separate ways" reinforces the sense of separation between the two individuals.
The opening lines of the song evoke a sense of tension and intensity: "My deliberate mood is stringing harder in me / but I'm wanting so to ask you / can I kiss you here?" The repetition of "I'm wanting so to ask you" emphasizes the singer's desire for physical contact. The line "and all your moderate words / burn into fire inside" suggests that the other person's words have a powerful effect on the singer, perhaps stirring up intense emotions.
Later in the song, the singer expresses their desire to know something that will "shatter" the other person. This might suggest a desire for deeper emotional intimacy, or for an understanding of what makes the other person tick. Overall, the lyrics capture a sense of longing and desire, tinged with a recognition that the two people in question may ultimately go their separate ways.
