Awake 02:16
Awake In this universe I had to run Thought it was the only way Tumbled again and again Never giving up for the blue sky

In This 03:42
Took so long to find a shape To understand what I had in my hand In this time In this day In this minute In this present moment Try to be in this Like everyone is in this For a little bit For a little bit For a little bit Still don’t know How to really accept The rules of living The law of this world In this rhythm In this sound In this tune In this feeling Try to be in this Like everyone is in this For a little bit For a little bit For a little bit All that mattered Was on the opposite It was a good frame in the pouring rain In this body In this mind In this space In this sight Try to be in this Like everyone is in this For a little bit For a little bit For a little bit Now, is my only longing Longing to fully be In this connection In this breath In this touch In this desire Try to be in this Like everyone is in this For a little bit For a little bit For a little bit For a little bit For a little bit

Universe 03:48
One day everything will be gone One day you are not gonna be You don’t have to be afraid cause you have tried it before you were born You will always be the universe that moves You will always be the universe that moves What was it that you saw before What was it that you felt before You were so far away from home So far away from home What was it that you knew before What was it that you thought was true before You were so far away from home So far away from home You will always be the universe that moves You will always be the universe that moves

I Had To 00:40
I guess I’ll just feel lesser versions of what I’ve already felt before I was somewhere else with you though That’s what I tell myself I guess it’s over now I cherish what we have

Run 03:38
Dancing Dancing with my eyes closed Hoping Hoping to wake up But I am I am still sleeping How How did I get so deep Even if Even if Rivers are passing through Even if Even if Everything feels new I Run Run away now I wanna run Run away now Until I can breathe Until I am back on my feet Then I get home It may It may not be easy But I I can’t hide no more Far How did I get so far Close I am at a close Everything Everything Everything I wanted Now I have Now I have And I just feel so haunted I Run Run away now I wanna run Run away now Until I can breathe Until I am back on my feet Then I get home

I thought, I thought I had to wash my face To stand a chance in this race I thought, I thought I had to loose my heart To feel less apart

The Only Way 03:36
Never have I had so many tears dried out All my senses bowed still the softest voice was loud I was caught up in the rain it was the only thing to blame Running out of words I was lost in the pain The only way, the only way, the only way. Reaching out for something that for me was unknown Still I had to chase it but no one to share it with It seemed that everybody knew it bit by bit But for me there was nothing, no nothing I could fit The only way, the only way, the only way. Then the rising morning sun has a certainty to come Safe and sound to her I am bound Loss of expectation forced to explorations To the corners of the mind Returning now blind The only way, the only way, the only way. Still there must have been something I have known Something that made me wake up in the morning This was it: the greatest thing you'll ever learn Is to love and be loved in return The only way, the only way, the only way. After all these trips Through the highest mountain cliffs Aware and awake It was a risk to take I had to pretend It was all for a higher end Down on my knees The only way, the only way, the only way.

Tumbled 03:28
There was a time There was a rush I rolled the dice No it wasn't wise Made me pretend It was the end No I had no fear Nothing to lose Just seeking libration And maybe I should reach out more Reach out for the feeling Everything changed so fast I knew it had to end at last Tumbled from the start Tumbled every part Played my best card played my open heart All of it tore me apart Dropped my weapon dropped my guards and embraced all the crazy parts Trying to wash The dirt of my hands Didn't make sense Building a fence Had to go on The show must go on Don't really know The point of the show Tell me and liberate me And I’ll be forever yours The sound of the music Everything changed so fast I knew it had to end at last Tumbled from the start Tumbled every part Played my best card played my open heart All of it tore me apart Dropped my weapon dropped my guards and embraced all the crazy parts

Since you called my name and kissed me in the dark my problems felt like art Took my hand and said this could work for you and for me too I fall in love with (With you with you with you with you) Wake up to a love that’s new (That’s new that’s new that’s new that’s new) Again and again When I’m in your arms I feel sheltered from all harms, from all harms Sometimes it feels remote like a cryptical code, cryptical code I fall in love with (With you with you with you with you) Wake up to a love that’s new (That’s new that’s new that’s new that’s new) Again and again You are my favorite place to be. You are my favorite place to be. You are my favorite place to be. I fall in love with (With you with you with you with you) Wake up to a love that’s new (That’s new that’s new that’s new that’s new) Again and again

Giving 03:51
I thought I had it all under control That I had figured it out How to be a loving soul But I am lost in a free fall where fences are growing tall And now you’re slipping through my hands Like I am a ghost Come baby closer I wanna hold you in my arms There’s something that I have Had on my mind Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all, Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all, Giving me Not losing you I spent my youth looking for a feeling On the dance floor searching for some healing I don’t think I showed you that I really want to hold you So come baby closer I wanna hold you in my arms Your love feels just right, So don’t leave my sight I wanna Take it off, Take it off, Take it off, Take it off Yes I will Take it off, Take it off, Take it off, Take it off Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all, Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all Giving me Not losing you I’ve been holding my breath Thinking you would never see Reaching for the sky Just to stay high Stay high, stay high All I ever wanted was to be a loving soul All I ever did was to chase the feeling The feeling, The feeling, The feeling, Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all, Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all, Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all, Giving, Giving it all, Give, Give you my all, Giving me Not losing you

Don’t wanna stay, Don’t wanna be here, Left your soul long ago, Don’t wanna wake up, Don’t wanna go out, Lost your air, Making every possible mistake, Even when you’re not awake Do it for you and yourself, Do it for everyone else, Do it for the blue sky, The blue sky Don’t you go follow the rules, The rules are just for fools, Follow the blue sky, The blue sky Please believe me when I say, That you can wake up another way, You have to look for other places, In your core, you will know for sure Waltzing in the smoking zone, wondering if you’ll ever feel at home. Do it for you and yourself, Do it for everyone else, Do it for the blue sky, The blue sky, Don’t you go follow the rules, The rules are just for fools, Follow the blue sky, The blue sky You’re more, You’re more, you’re more than a body, you’re more

about

It’s always there, the blue sky.
We tend to sometimes forget it
when it’s hidden from us.

For The Blue Sky is a captivating, visionary and melancholic debut-album written out of the infinite, yet often clouded source of honesty by one of the most interesting new talent from the Nordics.

While the music floats through the sphere of electronic Pop with a distinctive undertone, the lyrics tell the story of a reflective mind treating everyday doubts and large feelings. If you have ever been feeling pressure or doubts related to giving your all and being your best self, chances are that Frum’s honest and courageous texts will resonate with you. Listening to Frum’s silky voice and the atmospheric and light vibes of the album, one can’t help but feel like being part of a movie.

Frum aka Jenný Jónsdóttir Kragesteen is an artist from the Faroe Islands, 18 small islands in the North Atlantic. Growing up on these tiny islands, Frum has always had a profound curiosity for the world and space around her. This eventually led her to study a degree in philosophy.

The intro lyrics “Awake, in this universe” reflect Frum way of relating her feelings and thoughts to the vast space and times of the universe. Relating concepts of love, acceptance, hope and control to incomprehensible spaces might leave you feeling small. The humbleness of these thoughts add a beautiful and poetic dimension to the ups and downs of daily life and in finding one’s place.

When asked what period in time FRUM would like to visit for a day, the answer comes instantly without hesitation. “I feel like I have been born too early. There is so much of the world and the future that we do not know yet and that I would like to see.” This insatiable curiosity and way of looking ahead is mirrored in the songs of the album as well as in the innovative sounds and arrangements of the tracks.

For The Blue Sky tells the story of a young woman finding her way in a world, where options are endless and self-doubt is real, but in the end finds the right path again - for herself, for everyone else, for the blue sky. Frum wrote the songs of the album in times when she was mentally at extreme lows but also extreme highs.
Take Run for example - a song about being where you always wanted to be, but then realising it’s not as peaceful as you imagined. On the other hand, there are optimistic moments like Again And Again, a love song and one of Frum’s most personal songs yet. She observes how love can make you forget your problems for a moment as she starts the song with the lines: “Since you called my name, and kissed me in the dark, my problems felt like art”. For the album’s beautiful interludes, Frum invited her sister, who surprises the listener from time to time with a very stripped-down verse sounding like they were sung right from their family’s living room piano.

Frum has already taken her home-country by storm, playing on the magical G!-festival, performing on national television for the Faroese Music Awards, as well as being nominated for both best upcoming artist and for best music videos.

After releasing the first songs, Frum has been performing at SPOT Festival in Denmark, Reeperbahn in Germany and toured in China. The last couple of years, Frum has been residing in Iceland taking in new inspiration to finalise her debut album For The Blue Sky.
