Hmmm...apart from Secret Service and Army Of Lovers I don't recall any of these. I suppose I should though, since we're practically neighbors :roll:

The group Fingerprintz who had the album "Beat Noir" are Swedish?! Just looked at the credits and it looks like a UK outfit to me.

Hi Bernie!
Maybe there`s two groups with the same name?
The swedish Fingerprints had a couple of hits back in the 80`s!

Fingerprints or Fingerprintz? The latter was a UK act, somewhere between rock and new wave, who were signed to Virgin around '79 - '80. They did 2 albums but had no major hits.

About Fingeprints(not with Z)!! they release Time is all
we need and Make my day on 12"(i still have Make..) and
the 7"Dont you wanna get to know me(Still have)
Dont forget French Revolution and Lights from fantasia!
I`ll soon sell the album on the forum
About Carola-Hunger.That was an surprise but i think she
made it for the dancefloor
She won the eurovision song contest man years ago with
a song called frδmling
Very very big hit in sweden!

I know Lili & Sussie from your list, I have the 12" for "We Were Only Dancing" which is pretty cute. They look like they've spent a bit too much time in the sunshine on the cover though!

Good one that`s for sure but i think Oh mama(us mix) is better!
Oh mama is for sale if anyone is interested!!
I agree i think they spend most of the time(in the 80`s)in the
sun and try to look as good as possible
Lili is spending most of her time taking care of hurted animals
during the last years!

Underground Hit [Level 5]
I know most of them (and that's nothing I'm proud of)
Paul Rein - Sex, I hate that record.
S.T.O.P - Don't stop (is OK), Kool Katt (is terrible) (I think it was written for a Christer Sandelin "post Style" musical project.
Sandelin/Ekman was writing/producing a lot of dance and pop records for a lot of new swedish artists the years after their great commercial success with the group Style /Freestyle.
Secret Service was huge in Europe.
I'll add a few and see if someone heard of them:
C Sandelin did a decent cover of "Automatic Lover" under the name "Wish"
Savannah-Keep on Lovin me (-79/80) was very "disco" It was a minor hit in Germany.
