    Released: 20 february 2013

The album is mostly characterised by more songs being played in minor compared to his previous ones. The songs "Gå hem" and "Tunga moln" were predicted to become hits of the summer, just like "Från och med du" and "Genom eld" from his debut album Vilja bli. Even though there is a consensus among critics that it is a well polished album, many reviews mention a lack of playfulness and clarity.
