"My first impression of Nina was like that of any other pop consumer. I
had MTV playing in my hotel room. The Cardigans were on, and I thought
she was incredibly beautiful and sang well. I also thought, 'That
song's annoying, it sticks in your head.' We finally met when my band
started getting into film music and I asked her to sing a song for this
low-budget movie. I thought she was hot then, and I still do. Of
course, I now see her completely differently from that image on MTV:
She's the person I share my life with." (On his first impression of
wife, Nina Persson, to Jane Magazine, Nov. 2001)
