Daimi, Cæsar, Ove Sprogøe, Jørn Grauengaards Orkester - Jeg Er Sgu Min Egen

Review by Marvin Cruz

Jeg Er Sgu Min Egen: A Wild Ride Through Danish Pop Oddity Alright, buckle up because Jeg Er Sgu Min Egen by Daimi, Cæsar, Ove Sprogøe, and Jørn Grauengaards Orkester is not your grandma’s record collection (unless she was into some seriously quirky vibes back in '67). This Danish gem slaps harder than you'd expect from something labeled “Pop” and “Stage & Screen.” Released on Metronome Records—yep, the same label that brought us all those jazz cats—it’s like they took a bunch of random ideas, threw ‘em in a blender, and hit puree. And honestly? It works. Let’s dive straight into two tracks that’ll stick to your brain like gum under a table. First off, there’s “En Sæk Af Gode Øjeblikke.” The title translates to "A Bag of Good Moments," but don’t let that sugary name fool you. This track punches hard with its wonky orchestration and Daimi’s voice slicing through like butter. There’s this weird mix of playful sass and melancholy that makes it impossible to ignore. Like, one second you’re bopping along, thinking everything’s cool, and then BAM—you realize you’ve been sucker-punched by feels. Classic move. Then we got “Ligeglad,” which literally means “Don’t Care.” Oh man, this one's an earworm with fangs. It’s short, sharp, and kinda rude in the best way possible. The lyrics are basically flipping the bird to societal expectations while the music dances around like it doesn’t have a care in the world. You can tell these guys weren’t trying to fit any mold; they just did their own freakin’ thing. By the time the horns kick in, you’re either headbanging or questioning every life choice that led you here. Either way, mission accomplished. Now, I gotta say, listening to this album feels like stepping into someone else’s fever dream. One moment you’re vibing with sweet melodies, and the next you’re drowning in absurdity. Tracks like “Man Skal Vide Helt Nøjagtigt, Hvad Man Gør” (“You Need to Know Exactly What You’re Doing”) sound like what happens when Monty Python decides to make a musical about office drudgery. And yeah, maybe songs like “Så Får Vi Brev Fra Annie” (“Then We Get a Letter From Annie”) lean a bit too much into novelty territory, but who cares? It’s fun as hell. What really sticks out about Jeg Er Sgu Min Egen is how unapologetically itself it is. These folks weren’t chasing trends—they were throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what stuck. Sure, some bits fall flat, but most of it lands with a satisfying splat. It’s messy, chaotic, and utterly Danish—a snapshot of 1967 Denmark that somehow still resonates today. And here’s the kicker: after blasting this album for hours, I started wondering if modern pop could use a dose of this madness. Imagine Billie Eilish dropping a track called “Kat Mus” (“Cat Mouse”). Would people lose their minds? Probably. But hey, maybe that’s exactly what we need—a little less polish and a lot more chaos. So yeah, give Jeg Er Sgu Min Egen a spin if you want something that sounds like a drunken karaoke night at a Danish cabaret. Just don’t blame me if you end up humming “Ligeglad” for days.

Hej ThomasJLarsen, denne indspilning stammer fra en Elap dobbelt LP med titlen "Bent Fabricius Bjerre 32 TV og FILM HITS" med en masse god musik og deriblandt mange melodier fra TV serier som jeg ikke længere kan huske navnene på.
