Margaret Berger was born on 11 October 1985 in Trondheim and grew up in Hitra Municipality, where she lived for twelve years.
She did not make it through in her initial semi-final round, where she lost to Maria Haukaas Storeng and Kjartan Salvesen (the eventual winner).
She received the most votes with her rendition of The Beatles' "Come Together" thus advancing to the top 11 alongside fellow contestant Susanne Nordboe.
According to AllMusic's review of the album, "its ten tracks seem to snatch indiscriminately from rock, dance, R&B, and electro, though the cumulative effect is less of a hodgepodge than a harmonious cohabitation of electronic beats and rock guitars, within a plush, polished pop context, in a manner that hasn't been particularly prevalent (in mainstream music anyway) since the '80s".
[1] The album did not receive an official single release, but the music video for the song "Lifetime Guarantee" was awarded a Spellemannprisen.
Influenced by Björk, Daft Punk and The Knife, the album was a departure from her previous effort,[3] and featured a mixture of electronic and dance-pop music.
In 2008, Berger became the music director of NRK P3, one of the three nationwide radio channels of the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation.
In June 2011, her label Sony BMG issued the 4-track EP compilation Four Hits: Margaret Berger, which included the singles "Lifetime Guarantee", "Samantha", "Will You Remember Me Tomorrow?"
[8] The album was set to include her Eurovision 2013 song, "I Feed You My Love", as well as a collaboration with Swedish indie-pop group Lo-Fi-Fnk.
