Ja, ni läste rätt.
Svenska heavy metal-bandet Hammerfalls låt Hearts on fire har blivit utsedd till svenska damcurlinglandslagets OFFICIELLA OS-låt inför OS i Turin.
Visst är det väl skönt när kanter trubbas av och när kulturella gränser suddas ut. Men curling är tamefan aldrig metal.

På hemsidan finns att läsa:
In preparation for the Olymic Games in February, we joined forces with one of Sweden’s brightest hopes for a gold medal: The Women’s Curling Team. They won both the World and the European Championship in 2005, and are now looking to make it a triple with an Olympic victory as well. In order to secure that, they have enlisted the musical inspiration of HammerFall in the form of “Hearts On Fire”, for which a video was recorded last week. With heavy metal as a source of strength, the girls can now focus on bringing home the gold.
The video was a blast to record, an attitude shared by everyone involved. The result is an amusing and, for us, a little unusual video. A single will be released (in Sweden only), to accompany the clip.
Det är nog inte bara jag som ser fram emot videon. Snacka om metal-horeri. haha!
