Gha. Almost starts crying when hearing the English Pippi song. Honestly, the Swedish one is much, much better. At least I as a Swede thinks so.

Hope you had a nice stay in the country.

You're so right fredskronk!

Trivia

Inger sang the swedish title song "Har kommer Pippi langstrump" (Here comes Pippiu Longstocking) to all the Pippi films and series, wich became an evergreen in Sweden. She also recorded a version in Finnish, a language she doesnt speak at all, in 1970, released as a vinyl single with the title "Peppi Pitkatossu" where the poor girl really has trouble pronouncing things. She also released a single in 1978 with the disco song "Keep On Dancing" and the rocksong "Youre The One For Me" - it didn't sell very well, but remains a classic camp-record in Sweden.

She says she has never regretted playing the part of Pippi, but even today in the 21st century people still recognize her wherever she goes. She wants to continue with the acting finds it hard to get roles and people instantly relate her to Pippi, even the producers and directors during auditions.

Her role as Pippi Longstocking didn't make her rich because it wasn't allowed to pay child actors more than once in Sweden.

Works as a doctor's secretary in Stockholm.

Has performed at small theaters in Sweden since 1987.
