Pandora is a Swedish eurodance artist. Her real name is Anneli Magnusson (born June 20, 1970). Pandora was most popular during 1990s, mainly in nordic countries, being even one of the most popular Swedish artists in Finland ever.

Pandora's career began in autumn 1993, when she was introduced to Hit Vision, the three producers Martin Ankelius, Peter Johansson and Henrik Andersson, looking for suitable singer for their musical ideas. Her debut single "Trust Me", written and produced by "Sir Martin & The Dr. Maxx Family" (i.e. Ankelius/Andersson/Johansson) became the best-selling single of the year and went gold. The album, "One Of A Kind", was released in October 1993 achieving gold in both Sweden and Finland. "Tell The World" sold platinum in several countries where the Japanese version sold over 650,000 copies. Her third album "Changes" was also produced by Ankelius/Andersson/Johansson trio and released by Universal Music. This album also sold gold in Finland and platinum in Japan.
