Эми Даймонд (швед. Amy Diamond) – шведская певица.
Настоящее имя Amy Linnéa Deasismont.
Эми родилась в Швеции в Норрчёпинге 15 апреля 1992 года. Через 10 месяцев семья переехала в Англию. Там они жили, пока Эми не исполнилось четыре с половиной года, после чего они переехали в Швецию. У Эми три сестры.
Она начала петь в возрасте одного года и без единого урока пения, она создала очень яркий и индивидуальный голос. Эми спокойная, уверенная в себе и безобидная, и поэтому многие люди считали её вундеркиндом
.
После «вокальной зрелости» Эми стала обладать четким, индивидуальным и сбалансированным голосом. У неё отличный слух, что позволяет ей удивительно контролировать свой голос.
Эми с самого детства знала, что хочет стать певицей и музыкантом, и она решила поучаствовать на всех конкурсах талантов, которые были на телевидении. Она понимала, что была слишком молода, чтобы участвовать там, и в возрасте 8 лет, она просила маму найти конкурсы талантов, где она могла бы появиться.
С 8 до 11 лет Эми занималась в школе культуры, танцев и театра "Конфеты", а также появилась во многих представлениях и мюзиклах.
В 8 лет она впервые появилась на сцене в мюзикле "Волшебник из страны Оз". Когда Эми спела "Somewhere Over The Rainbow", ей аплодировали стоя.
Ее первое появление на ТВ было в "Сезон малых звёзд» в финале в 2000 году.
Когда SVT искали ребенка-актера для драматического сериала "жертва" обратились к ней: "конфета" - Мисс Эми, приходите на прослушивание. Эми удачно прошла кастинг.
В 9 лет она участвовала в конкурсе талантов, и после того как она спела все зрители кричали: "Эми! Эми! Эми! Эми! "И топали по полу. Вскоре после этого Эми появилась в первый раз на обложке газеты.
Летом, когда Эми исполнилось 10 лет, она организовала тур по всей Швеции, так она стала очень популярной там.
Некоторые из жюри конкурса талантов сказали: "Голос Эми лучше и сильнее, чем голос оригинального музыканта"(Shakira), "Голос Эми - причина мурашек по коже".
В восемь лет она участвовала в конкурсе талантов, в том числе TV4 «Super Troupers» и «mini Melodifestivalen» и выиграла семь из них.
После "Super Troupers" у Эми возникло большое желание исполнять свои собственные песни.
В 2004 году у Эми появляется большой шанс. Радиостанция Mix Megapol провела общенациональный конкурс талантов "Summer Mix Megapol Idol 2004" для участников в возрасте 10-25 лет. Она состояла из 10 этапов, в которых по два финалиста из каждого города выходили в финал. Эми участвовала в Skövde и прошла дальше. Эми стала финалистом, которая выиграла запись в реальной студии. В состав жюри сидели рекорд-компании, A&R (Джохин Стенхаммар) от Bonnier Amigo Music, и после того как компания прослушала Эми в студии, ей предложили контракт на запись. Сингл "What´s in it for me?" был записан (за 1,5 часа!), и Эми и ее отец были доставлены на Кубу, чтобы записать свой первый видеоклип.
Эми прорвалась с "What´s in it for me?" В феврале 2005 года. В том же году хиты "Welcome To The City ", "Shooting Star" и " Champion, которая звучала на футбольных матчах, а также в Норвегии, Дании, Финляндии, Польше и балтийских стран. " What´s in it for me?" стала самой спортивной песней в Польше летом 2005 года. Первый альбом был выпущен также в Испании, Польше, Голландии и Германии.
Эми Даймонд была номинирована на премию в нескольких гала-2005: Grammy (в 4 номинациях), NRJ Awards (3 номинации, 2 победы), Rockbjörnen (в 2 номинациях), Nordic Hit Music Awards (2 номинации, 1 победа) и Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards.
Эми также получила премию в Польше за лучшую поп-певицу в 2006 году (Попкорн премии).
Перед тем, как Эми стала столь популярна в музыке, она занималась фигурным катанием, начав кататься на коньках в возрасте 6 лет. Эми также участвовала в скачках и взяла несколько наград. С её харизмой и её целеустремлённостью, она легко добивалась целей. Эми была переведена в старшую группу группового обучения в возрасте 10 лет. Она продолжала ездить на поезде шесть дней в неделю, плюс игра по выходным до 12 лет. В конце концов, Эми поняла, что ей пришлось выбирать между музыкой и фигурным катанием. Несмотря на то, что она действительно любит кататься на коньках, выбор был очевидным.
В мае 2006 года Эми выпустила второй альбом " Still Me, Still Now", который стал платиновым еще до того, как диск был выпущен в магазинах. В течение всего лета 2006 года Эми гастролировала с "Diggiloo". И снова успех. На этот раз благодаря ее потрясающей интерпретации Эдит Пиаф "Je Ne Rien Regrette".
Эми была признана читателями Aftonbladet как "Королева летнего турне", и это в 14 лет! Она также была признана певицей года журналом «Tove med motiveringen».
В дополнение к музыке, Эми была также моделью для Ellos, Statoil и Stadium. Эми также сиграла важную роль в "Лассе-Маяс Детективное агентство".
В сентябре 2007 года, Эми появилась вместе с ансамблем Элвиса "УТС-Band" и "The Sweet Inspirations". Спела песню "In The Ghetto" и снова сорвала овации.
Элвис, ближайший друг, и тур-менеджер, Джо Эспозито, сказали потом: "Это было лучшее исполнение песни, которое мы когда-либо слышали".
Весной 2007, Эми начала планировать запись своего третьего альбома "Music in Motion".
До сих пор, Эми работала с одними и теми же авторами песен и продюсерами, Тайспер, Гризли и Мак. Они все еще c ней, но третий альбом был записан другими продюсерами и композиторами.
Эми слушала сотни песен, посланные ей, и выбрала наиболее понравившиеся.
" Music in Motion " вышел в сроки и в альбоме чувствуется новизна, нечто захватывающее. Каждый трек в альбоме имеет свою собственную историю.
В этом альбоме много великих имен, работавших совместно с Эми:
Тайспер, Гризли и Мак (A-Teens, Хелена Папаризу, Мендес, и т.д.);
Пит Дэвис (Spice Girls, Gwen Stefani, Nelly Furtado и т.д.)
Александр Кронланд (Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys и т.д.)
Роббан и Йохан Электрик (Christina Aguilera, Cher и т.д.)
Макс Мартин (Бритни Спирс, Келли Кларксон, Backstreet Boys, Pink, Селин Дион, и т.д.).
Это был огромный опыт для Эми, иметь возможность работать со столь многообразными и удивительными продюсерами и композиторами, каждый из которых был сильно впечатлён голосом Эми.
Эми от природы простая, скромная, целеустремлённая, дружелюбная, решительная и талантливая, с изюминкой и юмором. Как ей удаётся быть такой, знает только она сама.
Что говорит Эми о новом альбоме:
Я безумно довольна этим альбомом. Над этим альбомом мне была оказана честь работать с Тайспером, Гризли и Маком, а также с некоторыми новыми продюсерами и композиторов. Этот альбом сильно отличается от предыдущих. Мне приходилось работать с Максом Мартином, Александром Кронландом иРоббэн & Йохан Электрик. Я так рада, что имела возможность работать с этими людьми. На этот раз, мы работали с действительно хорошим продюсером.. Его зовут Пит Дэвис. Я не могу дождаться, когда вы услышите альбом, и я надеюсь, что вы будете такого же мнения об альбоме, как и я. Больше всего я сейчас жду гастрольного тура. Это будет так здорово петь эти песни на публике!

Biography
Early life
Diamond was born in Norrköping, Sweden as Amy Linnéa Deasismont, the second child of an English father, Lee, and a Swedish mother, Chrisbeth. Soon after her birth, the family moved to England.[3] The family moved back to Sweden when she was four-and-a-half years old, this time to Jönköping, where she learned Swedish. Diamond still lives there with her family, cousins and two younger sisters, Lisa and Holly, an older sister, Danielle and younger brother, Charlie.[4][5]
Diamond started figure skating at age six and won multiple gold medals. She practiced six times a week before embarking on her singing career.[1][6] She went to a dance and theater school called Blandgodis, and participated in theater and TV productions which gave her experience in public performing.[5] She also appeared in a small television role on the show, De drabbade.
Diamond has loved singing since she was two years old.[4] One of her first public performances was at the age seven on the talent show Småstjärnorna. She dressed as Belinda Carlisle and lip synced to "Heaven is a Place on Earth", finishing third in the competition.[7] In 2004, she participated in talent competitions such as Minimelodifestivalen in Jönköping and Swedish TV4's Super Troupers, winning most of them. On Mix Megapol Summer Idol Diamond won the main prize: to record a song in a real studio. During recording, she was offered a commercial recording contract.[8] Soon after, Diamond recorded her debut single "What's in It for Me". Markus Sepehrmanesh, one of the songwriters for her albums, said in an interview that she sang perfectly.[6] "What's in It for Me" was recorded in ninety minutes and the single was released the following February.[6]
Success as a singer
"What's in It for Me" was a commercial success, although some Swedish TV stations refused to show the music video, arguing that Diamond was too young for the song's theme about adult relationships.[3] Amy, though, didn't see the theme as an adult relationship - in her eyes it was relationships between friends. Nevertheless, the song received extensive radio airplay while she simultaneously went on tour with Elin Lanto.[9]"What's in It for Me" reached number one on the Swedish singles chart in March and eventually went platinum.[1]
Before long, Diamond appeared on Swedish TV4 and used her artist name for the first time. Although she sang to a pre-recorded backing track in the studio, on the program she sang her single and Alicia Keys' song "If I Ain't Got You" while accompanied by a live band. The band included a drummer, guitarist, bassist, background singer and a keyboard player, who also sang backgrounds.[10]
Amy Diamond giving autographs in Kalmar, Sweden in 2005.Due to the success of the single, a full album was commissioned, and This Is Me Now was released in May 2005. The album sold more than 150,000 copies, which was triple the requirement for gold record certification in Sweden at the time. The success led to television appearances, such as on the weekly chart show Trackslistan and on the children's competition show Vi i femman. By the end of 2005, she had appeared live on more than 20 television shows. A concert tour in Sweden was organized for her in the summer, and some of the shows were also televised.[11]
Although Diamond's fans are typically school children, the album cannot be described as children's music.[12] The style of This Is Me Now is mainly happy pop music with synthesizer backgrounds, but it includes the theme song "Tomorrow" from the musical Annie and a live recording of the song "If I Ain't Got You". The songs in the album were made by the producer team Tysper (Tommy Tysper), Mack (Marcus Sepehrmanesh) and Grizzly (Gustav Jonsson), who are all from Stockholm. They form the core of the production company TEN Production and have produced successful pop tracks before working with Diamond. Other Ten Production songs seeing popularity were performed by the A Teens and Helena Paparizou. Diamond's albums were published through Bonnier Amigo Music Group.[13][14]
Diamond is a talented live singer and sings without a playback tape in her public performances. Her debut album included a live version of Alicia Keys' "If I Ain't Got You", which was described in a review as "sweet and impressive at the same time".[15] She reached the finals in Super Troupers, where she reached the final by singing Shakira's "Underneath Your Clothes". She was 12 years old.[6] A review in Svenska Dagbladet described her voice as fine and secure, and her record label advertised it as "shining and characteristic".[1]
Outside Sweden
Diamond signed a distribution deal with Warner in July in order to promote the album internationally. She never appeared with her band again, instead performing with a background track and dancers. The album became popular also in other Nordic countries and Poland during the following summer. "What's In It For Me" was heard frequently on the radio, becoming the 19th most played song of 2005 in Finland and 16th best songs of 2005 in Poland.[16] More singles from the albums "Welcome to the City" and "Champion" were released in the summer. A special edition of the album was released for the Central European market. It contained two previously-unreleased songs which would later appear on Still Me Still Now. Diamond was sent on a promotional tour throughout Central Europe in late 2005. Her record deal allowed the whole family to travel with her whenever the concerts were abroad.[4] Diamond performed on television in Germany, Norway, Denmark, Poland, Lithuania and the Netherlands.
Diamond was nominated for several awards in 2005. At 13, she was the youngest person in history to receive the Nordic Music Award for the best Nordic hit "What's in It for Me".[17] Further, she is the youngest artist to receive two simultaneous NRJ Radio Awards and the youngest to be nominated for the Swedish Grammy Awards.[1] At the Grammy Awards, she won Best Swedish Female Artist, Song of the Year, and Newcomer of the Year. Diamond received a Nickelodeon award for Hit of the Year, and had nominations for the Swedish Rockbjörnen. In 2010 she won again award for the best Swedish music/group at Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards.[18]
Second album
Diamond started recording her second album in February 2006. Her producers sent her songs and she chose which ones she wanted included on the album. The album was recorded over four weekends at a pace of two to three songs per weekend.[19] The album Still Me Still Now was published in May and the first single "Don't Cry Your Heart Out" was released a couple of weeks prior to the general album distribution.[20]
Although not much was heard from her in the spring, the second album was highly anticipated. Two days before the announced release date, she was interviewed on Nyhetsmorgon, a morning talk show, on TV4. The host surprised Diamond by handing her a gold record for the album; it had already sold enough copies on pre-orders alone to be certified.[21]"Don't Cry Your Heart Out" was a radio hit in Sweden.
Still Me Still Now continued in the same style as the previous album, being mostly light-pop music. "Don't Cry Your Heart Out" was radio-friendly pop, but songs such as "Diamonds" and "No Regrets" were arranged in a style reminiscent of musicals.[22] Some reviews wondered about the song selections, but Diamond's voice was praised nevertheless.[citation needed] The selected songs were alleged by some to be unsuitable for Diamond and her audience, but on the other hand her potential was appreciated.[23][24]
In mid-2006, Diamond took part in the Diggiloo tour, where she performed, among other songs, Edith Piaf's "Je ne regrette rien". Although Still Me Still Now wasn't as big a success outside Sweden as This Is Me Now, it was still popular in her home country. She also held concerts beyond the Diggiloo tour; readers of the largest evening newspaper, Aftonbladet, voted her 2006 Summer Tour Queen. Diamond released two more singles in late 2006, Big Guns and It Can Only Get Better, and continued to appear on television, including appearances on such prime-time shows as Sommarkrysset, Go'kväll, and Vinterkrysset. In January 2007, Amy Diamond started a fan club that publishes a quarterly fan magazine called Amy Diamond Fanzine. Lastly, in September 2007 she sang with In The Ghetto on Elvis - The Original Cast.[25]
