Jenny Amanda Katarina Jenssen (born Bengtsson, 12 September 1988 in Lund, Sweden is a Swedish performer who became famous after finishing second in the Swedish version of the popular talent show Idol after going head to head with Marie Picasso on 7th December 2007. Jenssen won 48.7% of the votes.

On the 3rd January 2008, Jenssen announced that she had landed a record deal. Her first single, “Do You Love Me”, was released in stores on 23rd January.
The following single “Amarula Tree” (written by Jenssen and Pär Wiksten) was released on 16th April 2008.

The debut CD “Killing My Darlings” was due to be released on the 7th May 2008. A tour is planned for the Summer of 2008. Some of the songs on the album will be written by Marit Bergman and Vincent Pontare, but the rest will be written by Amanda herself. The album went platinum in Sweden.

På mitt album har jag kombinerat de olika musikgenrerna som jag tidigare delade på med mina olika band. Det gamla och nya i ett sound, hårt och mjukt, total glädje och obotlig sorg. Lite som jag.

Translation:

On my album I have combined the different music-styles that I previously shared with my different bands. The old and new in one sound, hard and soft, total bliss and uncurable grief. A bit like me.

Amanda was the lead singer in the band “Oh Hollie Neverdays”, but is now pursuing a solo career. Amanda has also worked with musicians like Daniel Miller from the band “Wild Bleeding Heart” and Elina Nelson, another former participant in Swedish Idol.

Johannevivian, Ty szczęściaro! Ja niestety dookoła siebie mam tylko jedną moją przyjaciółkę, która słucha Amandy. Reszta jest jakoś odporna na moje wysiłki zarażenia jej muzyką ;) Ale nie zdawałam sobie sprawy, że jest nas więcej, miło mi to słyszeć :) Mogłaby do nas przyjechać.

Some people from Poland actually listen to her music, but she is not popular in whole Europe and this is a problem... btw, a lot of polish people dont have good taste in music... Scandinavian music is amazing, no matter if it is rock, post-rock, electronic or indie music :)

Amanda has extraordinary voice. In Poland unfortunetelly nobody listen to her. I prefer Happyland acoustic, it rocks!

Do You Love Me is actually really good. First time ever I like something by someone who was in Idol.

Vill se henne i Uppsala, jäkligt synd att det är 20-årsgräns. Vilket betyder att jag inte kommer se henne i Uppsala. haha Skulle ha blivit sjätte gången jag såg henne om jag skulle kunna gå.
