Jens Martin Lekman (pronounced [jɛns mɑrtɪn lekman]) (born 6 February 1981) is a Swedish musician. His music is guitar-based pop with heavy use of samples and strings, with lyrics that are often witty, romantic, and melancholic. His work is heavily influenced by that of Jonathan Richman and Belle & Sebastian, and he has been likened to Stephin Merritt (of The Magnetic Fields), David Byrne, and Scott Walker.
Lekman was born February 6, 1981 in Angered, Gothenburg. As a child, he was not particularly interested in music, but the age of fourteen he was asked to play bass in a friend's cover band. This sparked his own song writing and he quickly came to write hundreds of songs.
Gradually, he adopted the pseudonym Rocky Dennis, a name he borrowed from the protagonist in the movie Mask. Under this name, he began releasing limited edition CD-R discs, the first of which was 2001's The Budgie. The following year, he sent a collection of their songs to the American record label Secretly Canadian, who contracted him.

Secretly Canadian is an American independent record label based in Bloomington, Indiana with offices in Brooklyn, London, Austin, Los Angeles and Paris. Now run by Ben Swanson, Chris Swanson and Darius Van Arman, the current roster includes The War On Drugs, Antony and the Johnsons, Tig Notaro, Damien Jurado, Here We Go Magic and Gardens & Villa among others.
Secretly Canadian was started in 1996 by Chris and Ben Swanson, Eric Weddle, and Jonathan Cargill. The label's first two releases were a 7" by Songs: Ohia and a re-issue of an album by June Panic. Weddle later left to form label Family Vineyard, and the remaining trio were joined by Darius Van Arman in 1999. The label joined forces with Van Arman's Jagjaguwar, and the company has expanded rapidly since then.
Tig Notaro's LIVE was nominated for a Grammy in 2014 for best Comedy Album and The War on Drugs won the A2IM Libera award for Album of the Year in 2015.

The word record executive conjures up images of a ruthless businessman surrounded by mountains of cocaine, destroyed artists, and sharkskin suits. At least, it used to for me. Not anymore, because I know people like Chris Swanson. Chris Swanson runs The Secretly Group. A group of labels comprised of Secretly Canadian, Dead Oceans, and Jagjaguwar. They've signed and released records with Major Lazer, Jens Lekman, Bon Iver, The War On Drugs, and more. All of this was started in Chris's college dorm room. I frequently get asked by people how they get signed and I just decided to go to the source.

My wife organised Jens Lekman to surprise me at our wedding as we walked down 'the aisle'. He played four songs: If You Ever Need a Stranger, You are the Light, Into Eternity, and Your Arms Around Me. Many thanks to my wonderful wife for organising it — unbelievable. And thanks to Jens for playing along in the best surprise ever.

Jens Lekman played a show in Zagreb on 2nd July 2015 at club Močvara and club night “Žur“ (alongside two other promoters) made it happen. We took Jens to bank of river Sava where he played a brand new song for us. Meadow, birds chirping, joggers and cyclists were the perfect setting for the tender song „Two Young Lovers“. Thanks, Jens.

I took my sister down to the ocean
But the ocean made me feel stupid
Those words of wisdom I had prepared
All seemed to vanish into thin air
Into the waves I stared
I picked up a seashell
To illustrate my homelessness
But a crab crawled out of it
Making it useless
And all my metaphors fell flat
Down on the rocks where we sat
She asked where are you at?
But sister, it's the opposite of hallelujah
It's the opposite of being you
You don't know 'cause it just passes right through you
You don't know what I'm going through
You don't know what I'm going through
You don't know what I'm going through
We made our way home on the bikes we had borrowed
I still never told you about unstoppable sorrow
You still think I'm someone to look up to
I still don't know anything about you
Is it in you too?
You've got so much to live for, little sister
You've got so much to live for
But sister, it's the opposite of hallelujah
It's the opposite of being you
You don't know cause it just passes right through you
You don't know what I'm going through
You don't know what I'm going through
