Lykke Li: Grateful For to be part of the Twilight Phenomenon

NPR has a new interview with the beautiful Lykke Li, who contributed the song ‘Possibility’ to the soundtrack of The Twilight Saga: New Moon. Lykke Li chats about the meaning and inspiration between her new album, Wounded, and talks about how grateful she is to have been a part of the Twilight phenomenon.

Lykke Li says she didn’t necessarily understand the Twilight phenomenon, but she was grateful for the opportunity to influence young listeners watching the films.

“[Twilight has] die-hard fans — all these young people still believing in love and being romantic. I really identify with that. I remember watching films in my teenage years, and you’d be in love with Leonardo DiCaprio and then a song would come on. You’d love that song forever; it changed your life.”

Asked what Wounded Rhymes will mean to her when she listens back to it, the self-described old soul thinks it will serve as a reminder of her growing pains.

“I’m going to be like Benjamin Button; I’m just going to grow younger. I will probably be happy, fat, with kids and looking back and thinking, I was such a angry young woman. It’s the dark years before I kind of understood that life is hard, but it’s always beautiful.”
