February
Ms Jenssen was recording in L.A. We saw Amanda in Svt's Dom kallar oss artister where she was having a christmas party. Amanda was promoting her album Happyland international on Youtube.

Amanda's 2010 tour premiere started in Uppsala February 19. We got to see Amanda's well-decorated stage and the Happyland sign in neon that hung on the wall behind each gig throughout the year. When Ms Jenssen entered the stage for the first time that year we all got blown away from how stunning she looked. She had a red blouse with a black bow on and she wore a black skirt and black stockings. With her red lips she started to sing Save me for a day.

The tour went on to Bollnäs, Gothenburg, Falun and in Uppsala again.




March
We found out that Amanda was going to release five new songs on the international Happyland album. Later on we found out that the recordings weren't new songs but new mixes on already existing songs from her album.

In March she played twelve gigs which resulted in the busiest month along with July. She started off with Sälen and then Karlstad, Gislaved, Åre, Vemdalen, Karlskoga, Vara, Helsingborg, Luleå, Kalmar, Malmö and last Stockholm.






April
We got to listen to Happyland Desert Mix for the first time. Amanda was also in Denmark and in Germany to promote her album. Autopilot was in the official soundtrack of the German movie Vincent Will Meer. A German official website was set up for Amanda Jenssen. ta.no and Gaffa interviewed Amanda.

In April Amanda had two gigs and one of them was her first gig abroad, more specifically Copenhagen in Denmark. She started with Hultsfred and then she went to Copenhagen. The Copenhagen gig wasn't like all the other gigs she'd had previous months. She only sang four songs; For the sun, Common Henry, Sing me to sleep and Happyland. The official website turned international.

October
This was the end of all her tours 2010 but she had one more surprise for us in store. Amanda had a cooperation with Loka during Summer and everybody in Sweden could collect codes that were printed under the Loka bottle caps. After you had collected the codes you should send them in to Loka's website and wait for them to tell who had won a surprise. The surprise was an intimate gig with Amanda in the Studio theatre Lederman in Stockholm. Amanda sang a new song this evening that is called My 22nd blues or My twenty second blues. She also sang two covers by Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash and she ended the evening by singing I choose you.
