I don't need to apologize for anything. I feel secure, I welcome life. Today I do what I want to do – and it gives me energy.
Carola is the first out in the new season of "Hver gang vi møtes", where artists such as Astrid S and Thomas Dybdahl also participate. Unlike the other participants, she has done this before – twice in the Swedish "Så mycket bättre".

In the episode, which airs on January 1st on TV2, her song "Allt kommer bli bra, mamma" is interpreted, among other things, which Carola wrote the day after her mother had passed away. The Swedish star was "completely broken" by Ina Wroldsen's unusual interpretation of her classic "Främling".

In Kjerringøy outside Bodø, where "Hver gang vi møtes" was recorded, Häggkvist arrived with
