CARDIGANS REJECTED LOVEFOOL TO PROTECT MENTAL HEALTH
THE CARDIGANS risked incurring the wrath of fans by refusing to perform their flagship song Lovefool - in a bid to keep a grip on their sanity.
The Swedish band’s popularity dramatically rose after the release of 1996 movie Romeo & Juliet, which heavily featured the song on its soundtrack.
But the group developed a deep hatred for Lovefool - and refused to play it live.
Singer Nina Persson recalls, "We refused to play it for a long time.
"People thought we were very snotty but we couldn’t do it. If we had to play it again we’d have committed suicide." (TN/WNTET/JC) WENN - FOURTH - HOLLYWOOD, SHOWBIZ & PEOPLE NEWS - 03 MARCH 2008
