Björn Skifs is a Swedish singer, songwriter, actor, and screenwriter. He formed his first music group Slam Creepers in 1962. They split in 1969 and Skifs went on to form a new band, Blåblus (which translates roughly into English as "Blue Suede" - Suede being the word borrowed from French describing Swedish-style brushed leather) in 1972. As the lead singer of Blue Swede, the band had a No. 1 hit on Billboard Hot 100 in 1974 with a cover of Mark James's "Hooked on a Feeling". Skifs left the band in 1976 to pursue a solo career.
