Hello people! I'm a fan from India. Funnily enough, my sister was the one who listened to Ace of Base more than me until I went to USA to further my education. There I got hooked onto Ace of Base and cannot get out of the addiction ever since! And I'm not complaining!!! ;D I LOOOVE the music! SO GREAT! If Jonas or any of the other band members read this, please know that I LOVE your music and would love to see the original Ace of Base in concert live atleast once in my life! Well, not to sound like I'm taking favourites, but I don't mind if Jenny or Malin or both are there in the concert...if it ever materializes!!! I mean, I LOVE both of their voices and both are great lookers anyhow! But I wish I knew what happened to Malin! Why did she suddenly stop singing and leave the band? I searched Wikipedia and online but no explanation anywhere. I miss her voice but I also love Jenny's voice. And now she's gone too!! WTH??!!! Guys, I think The Bridge album is a nice thoughtful album with different beats. I love it. I also love all the other albums and songs. I love them all so it's difficult to say which are my favourites but I have a few... Never Gonna Say I'm Sorry, Unspeakable, The Juvenille, Da Capo and What's The Name Of the Game. So where is everybody else from and what are your favourite tunes?

Linn started to fade in 1997 and officially left band in 2007, but she didn`t make any appearences on public since 2002. Why did she decide to play secondary roles? Nobody of us knows real reason. Possibly she just tired from fame and glory. P.S I am living in Russia, but I was born in Armenia

Hi! Welcome! I hope you enjoy our forum, and you keep posting here! We like active members, hehe... My favorite AOB songs: Beautiful Life, Dancer In A Daydream, Southern California, Tokyo Girl, Killer On The Rampage, Da Capo (Promo Version), Girl In The Line, Blah Blah Blah On The Radio, Black Sea, One Day, Young And Proud, etc etc. Beautiful Life and Dancer In A Daydream are #1 and #2 though, easily. As for Linn, according to Jonas she never wanted to be famous. Getting big so fast was a shock to her and it scared her and made her uncomfortable. Then there was the issue with the psycho who attacked Jenny and her parents, looking for Linn. Jonas said in the chatbox that Linn used to be a lot like me, referring to my agoraphobia/social anxiety, so I'm sure that also became a big issue for her. She liked making music, but she didn't like being a celebrity or a "star". She's living very happily now though, and she enjoys going sailing. She's got a normal, private life and she's still very close to Jonas (visiting every week, having dinner with him and his family, etc). Jonas said if Linn ever decides to talk to fans again some day, she'll do it here at The Base. That's a big IF though, hahaha. He said she doesn't talk about AOB with him, they just talk about regular family things. She's completely moved on, and she's happy! *EDIT* Oh, duh! And I'm in Maryland, USA. Hahaha

Wow! I never knew about the stalker episode!! When did THAT happen? Poor Jen and Malin! They must have been scared out of their senses! Did the Police get the stalker and put him away for life? If Jonas ever comes on again, can you tell him he, Malin and Jenn have my sympathies?
Jonas had Agoraphobia? But now if he's chatting over here that means he got over it right? Does Ulf ever come on here?
Ah well, I'm glad Malin is happy! As a die hard fan, I would be glad to see her happy! So Malin MIGHT come here in the distant future...hmmmm..... What about Jenny? Is she ever on here? I would love to chat with her and talk about the inspiration for some songs!

No, Linn is the one I was talking about, not Jonas. As for the attack, you should look it up on google. It was a woman who was obsessed with Linn. She woke Jenny up with a machete to her throat. Jenny and her mom wrestled her to the ground, her mom got sliced on the hand, etc. She was arrested and taken away for years. She's out now though, but luckily hasn't resurfaced. It seems like it affected Linn more than it did Jenny.
Jenny doesn't come here (or to any fan site). Don't have a clue what's going on with her, honestly.
Ulf has come here. He came with Julia and Clara too. Clara's going to be coming again soon.
As for Jonas, he chats here all the time. Sometimes at least once a day. He's become a good friend of mine! Such an awesome, generous person.

Info on Jenny: she's doing her solo church stuff now...nothing major yet. She is aware of fansites since she commented on a few a while back. She communicates with fans mostly through facebook.
I'm from Arkansas USA. I love all AOB songs!

I'm from Virginia (USA) and still live there. But right now I'm in Germany b/c my boyfriend lives here. I must say, Europe is a very cool place!!! I can only give an opinion about Europe b/c I haven't been anywhere else (besides the US).....YET! But I would love to do more traveling. I'm sure all of the countries represented on this forum are wonderful in their own special way.

Hello and welcome My name is Linda, nickname Linn, it has been for ages. Not to be confused with Malin... haha. I'm almost 30 (HELP!) and I'm from the Netherlands. Have been an AOB fan since... 1994 I think. Jenny has always been my favourite member of the group but I love them all. I'm also very supportive of the new line-up. My favourite songs... though choice. Some songs are faves because they are just the best songs I've ever heard, others are faves because of memories. Here we go: Beautiful life, Life is a flower, Don't turn around, Lucky love, Dancer in a daydream, He Decides, Blah blah blah... And there's also some demos I love... but I think I already named enough songs Hope to see you around!
