They say you are foolish in wanting the sun

Thursday music corner: Idha Anna Maria Övelius is a former Swedish indie-folk artist who released two albums on Creation Records in the 1990s: Melody Inn (1994) and Troublemaker (1997). Formerly married to Andy Bell (Ride, Oasis, Beady Eye), she left the music business in 2000, and now works as a structural engineer in Stockholm.

From Me To You appeared on Idha's first album, and is a cover of a Janis Ian composition from her 1975 album Between the Lines, which also features Ian's classic At Seventeen. In addition to Idha's delicate vocals, the track features exquisite pedal steel guitar by Gerry Hogan.
