JosefinNilsson was raised on a farm near the town of village När on the Swedish island of Gotland.
At her best, Josefin is sensual and sinewy, but there is some tendency to get merely husky, a female Joe Cocker lunging at notes rather than hitting them.
JosefinNilsson is very emotional as the Russian chess player's abandoned wife, and plays the opening speech scene in temperamental "gotländska".

With synth-virtuoso Benny Anderson at the production helm and an array of sparkling adult pop-tunes to enjoy ["Now you see him, now you don't" and "High Hopes and Heartaches"] and a touch of the cautiously melodramatic ["Film I'd Like To See"] this album shines as a reminder of what brilliant songsmiths Anderson-Ulvaeus are.
Nilsson's breathy voice is a welcome discovery for anyone tired of nowadays's often average new female pop voices, who without the right material invariably come off 2nd best.
She effortlessly masters the highs and lows of "Heaven and Hell" [chosen as a single release, although not the catchiest song and a bit predictable] and her voice glides sensually across the soundscape that makes this album a must-have for anyone fond of well-executed adult contemporary pop.
Josefin has garnered the highest profile, having appeared in film (Adam och Eva) and the intermittant solo projects, most notably the 1993 the album Shapes produced by Benny, and featuring songs by Benny and Björn.
Amongst its charms is a mellismatic bellow by Josefin, emotionally marking the transition to the final chanting chorus.
It features Josefin on a slow, gritty lead which is a bit addictive.

Det blir aldrig som man tänkt sig (2000)(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
A young couple, Sophia (JosefinNilsson) and Freddie (Jacob Ericsson) has just got their first baby, but this little thing makes their lives way to complicated and difficult for them to handle.
They both have jobs, Sophia is an actress and Freddie a balloon-flier, which makes it tough to be home with the baby and such.
The lovely JosefinNilsson and funny Jacob Ericsson are totally believable as the young couple, and the rest of Sophia´s family is great as well.
