"For you I keep my legs apart, and forget about my broken heart." So goes the painfully honest breakthrough hit "Little Bit" by Sweden's newest indie-pop darling. Lykke Li (pronounced Lick-ee Lee) possesses a demure voice ideal for confessing such vulnerability. Her introspective—and totally sexual—lyrics are set to a background of sparse instrumentation and gentle beats. Though Li's voice is about as audible as a whisper, she easily commands the attention of a rowdy crowd, luring them in with the promise that she'll share her deepest secrets.
