16 September 2025 - The Cardigans - Carnival

This early single by the Cardigans was the first thing I ever heard by the band.  I knew there were great things to come, but no one could have predicted how great. 

It is a sweet and basic love song.   That's all you need to know.   


Except there's a lot more to say.  

This very sweet song begging for love is practically a prequel to "Lovefool".  Basically, it's about a girl who wants to go to a carnival with a boy but doesn't because the boy does not ask her.  The first single from their second album, Life, it was their first UK hit.  Which is why I chose a live performance from the UK.
