Yes, the Medina track is better in Danish, but it survies the translation and I regularly listen to both versions. There's something about it.. both bass-y and dancefloor-filling and tragic, but not in the usual "melancholic electro"-genre that's getting more and more crowded. It's rawer, something between t.A.T.u and Burial, a kind of unpretentious no-nonsense "life can be shitty, drinks and clubbing takes me out of it" way. One of the big ones of the year.

(Also, she's remarkable to look at in that english video.. captivating and mystical)
