NeSpoon's work defies categorization. Like this?

But for real couples in committed relationships, circumstances can be changed by trust, honesty, and sacrifice. When days seem lonely and nights are longer than ever, there is very little someone can do to ease the heartache. Amidst these feelings, the desire for listening to old love songs and reading romantic relationship quotes can help.

Danskere, vi sagde farvel til i 2011 På årets første dag kom meldingen om, at den folkekære musiker Flemming "Bamse" Jørgensen var sovet stille ind i sin seng i sit hjem i Egå ved Aarhus. Flemming Jørgensen, bedre kendt som Bamse, var i over 35 år aktiv på den danske musikscene og har gennem sin karriere solgt over 3,5 mio. albums. Han blev født den 7. februar 1947 og beskrives som en af de flittigste og bredest favnende danske musikere. Flemming Jørgensen fik sit folkelige gennembrud som forsanger i Bamses Venner, som han dannede i 1973. Derudover medvirkede han også lejlighedsvis som skuespiller, og han modtog i 1986 en Robert for årets mandlige birolle for sin rolle i Ofelia kommer til byen. Bamse døde nytårsnat.
