The Divorce

Finally the papers have been signed, sealed and delivered. Now it is official....I have divorced my major record label.
For me (and for a zillion other fellow artists, both of great international impact such as George Michael, Prince ( who´s record-company separations have been followed in press all over..) and others not as internationally well known.....the collaboration with a record company is as private as it can get...in the sense that the music that is being written and recorded is a part of the artist heart and soul. We give away a piece of ourselves in our words and music. It is almost like our music become our kids......and when they are being miss treated for various reasons , not respected and simply being left to chance, the feeling is......well you can imagine.....It is not very pleasant ...
So the artist will put the blame on the record company for their lack of focus, structure and interest, and the label with blame the artist for all kinds of weird stuff that makes you wonder why they signed you in the first place....
At the end of the day you will find the two parties throwing dirt at each-other and it will always end up with the fact that the artist is the ultimate looser, because he or she is the one who poured the heart out. A major label does not honestly care . there´s very little feeling and almost all about the money. Heard that one before right???
But then time flies,...... you somehow get over it it......
Life is short and there are more things to be done than to live with the passed.
So, respectfully accepting, and moving on....
I am totally happy for my divorce and were on speaking terms.
So now, with the new start .....I have now released the album on my own label, and feel free to buy a song or two at http://www.klicktrack.com/klicktrack/search?q=meja or check i-tunes or www.meja.net.
Peace and lot´s of love and all that jazz!!! now back to work :)

Congratulations, Meja! It took that long anyway! Your description is very accurate. For some ten years I lived very close to one of the leading Swedish divorce attorneys (as a brother in law) and published his book about divorces. He always said: "there are two occassions in life when people show their absolutely worst sides: estate distributions and divorces."
Good luck with your new label! I'll visit iTunes in a minute!
