Tone Damli is the international name of Tone Damli Aaberge and will be used in international releases.

She didn't always dream of becoming an artist, but started her career in a local choir when she was 4-5 years old. She took singing lessons and she has also played in a band.

Her influences come from "grown up" artists like Jeff Buckley and Radka Toneff, and the song The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, is on her debut album "Bliss".

Tone is really a "songbird" and one of her songs on the debut album is Eva Cassidy's "Songbird".

She was the runner-up in the Norwegian version of Idol in 2005, following Jorun Stiansen in the final. She has released four albums, Bliss, Sweet Fever, I Know, Cocool and Looking Back. Bliss and I Know have been certified gold in Norway.

She contended in the Norwegian Eurovision Song Contest 2009 finals, with the song Butterflies, and ended up in the runner-up position yet again, this time following Alexander Rybak. She also finished third in the Norwegian version (second season) of Dancing with the Stars in 2006.

On August 18 2012, it was announced on the official Idol website that Tone Damli will be the first of an all-new four-member jury of former Idol contestants to celebrate 10 years since the debut of Idol in Norway, along with the very first winner Kurt Nilsen.

Tone took part in the Swedish pre selection shows for Eurovision Song Contest 2013 (Melodifestivalen) with the song "Hello Goodbye" together with Erik Segerstedt from the group E.M.D. under her international name Tone Damli

Stupid
Tone Damli Aaberge Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I guess you're my kryptonite
The way you knock me off my feet
Now I can't tell my left form right
You only see me when I'm weak

I can't believe the things I hear me say
And I don't even recognize myself
Why can't I get out of my own way

It don't make any sense but what the hell

It's so confusing, what am I doing?
I'm not really like this, think I'm gonna lose it
Not making excuses, but baby the truth is
You make me stupid, stupid, stupid

Your love makes a mess of me, but what a perfect mess we are
Some day you'll feed the rest of me, not just my crazy heart

I can't believe the things I hear me say
And I don't even recognize myself
I just can't get out of my own way
It don't make any sense, but what the hell

It's so confusing, what am I doing?
I'm not really like this, think I'm gonna lose it
Not making excuses, but baby the truth is
You make me stupid, stupid, stupid

If I haven't scared you off by now, with all the foolish things I do
Mabye you are feeling stupid too
It's so confusing

It's so confusing, what am I doing?
I'm not really like this, think I'm gonna lose it
Not making excuses, but baby the truth is
You make me stupid, stupid, stupid

It's so confusing, what am I doing?
I'm not really like this, think I'm gonna lose it

Not making excuses, but baby the truth is
You make me stupid, stupid, stupid

Overall Meaning

In the song "Stupid" by Tone Damli Aaberge, the singer is expressing her confusion and vulnerability in a new relationship. She compares her feelings for her partner to kryptonite, the fictional substance that weakens Superman, saying that they knock her off her feet and make her feel disoriented. Her partner only sees her when she is weak, highlighting her vulnerability in the relationship. She then goes on to say that she can't believe the things she hears herself saying and that she doesn't even recognize herself anymore. Despite feeling like she's losing herself in the relationship, she can't help but be drawn to her partner, admitting that they make her feel stupid.

The chorus repeats the idea that the relationship is confusing and that the singer feels like she's losing control. She acknowledges that she's not making excuses for her behavior, but the truth is that her partner makes her feel "stupid, stupid, stupid." The bridge of the song introduces a glimmer of hope, with the singer suggesting that maybe her partner feels just as confused and vulnerable as she does. The final chorus repeats the same themes of confusion and vulnerability, encapsulating the singer's conflicting feelings about her relationship.

Line by Line Meaning

I guess you're my kryptonite
You have become my greatest weakness

The way you knock me off my feet
You leave me feeling overwhelmed and powerless

Now I can't tell my left from right
You have left me feeling disoriented and confused

You only see me when I'm weak
You only take notice of me when I am vulnerable

I can't believe the things I hear me say
I am surprised by the words that come out of my mouth

And I don't even recognize myself
I do not feel like my true self

Why can't I get out of my own way
I feel like I am hindering my own progress

It don't make any sense but what the hell
I do not understand what is happening, but I cannot help it

It's so confusing, what am I doing?
I am filled with doubt and confusion about my actions

I'm not really like this, think I'm gonna lose it
This behavior is not typical for me and I fear I am losing control

Not making excuses, but baby the truth is
I am not trying to justify myself, but this is the reality

You make me stupid, stupid, stupid
You make me act foolishly and unintelligently

Your love makes a mess of me, but what a perfect mess we are
Our relationship may be chaotic and imperfect, but it is still wonderful

Some day you'll feed the rest of me, not just my crazy heart
I hope that someday you will understand me more fully

If I haven't scared you off by now, with all the foolish things I do
I am amazed that you still want to be with me after all my mistakes

Maybe you are feeling stupid too
Perhaps you also feel foolish in love
