“New chuuunes, new chuunes, new brand chuunes. Shout outs to Kissey Asplund for turning us on to more international treasures, while spoiling us with gems from her chest. As a music lover I’d say this isn’t a song I would necessarily put on rotation repeatedly but as an ardent Kissey fan I felt compelled to share cuz hey, we have different tastes. From her goodie bag #1 she granted us this “cover of “Count Me Out“,by Salem Al Fakir (a big Swedish artist you have probably never heard of unless you are Swedish too, which is too bad, but now you have, which is good!)”. Like she said, I’ve never heard of him but I do like his version, even more so than Kissey’s. Let me say Kissey’s does have a flair I really enjoy; a beautiful piano melody that reverberates throughout. Fakir has a Van Hunt/Bilal sound that I have fallen in love with, so naturally I must share the original as well. Download Kissey’s version below, and listen to the original after that.
