Solsken


"Solsken" is a single by Swedish pop group Gyllene Tider.

The single peaked at number 20 on the Swedish singles chart, becoming the thirteenth single by the band to chart in their home country and became a new entry at number five on the Svensktoppen before peaking at number three a week later.

Critical reception

Björn Solfors of Aftonbladet called it "A song with natural summer joy."

Composition

The writer of the song Per Gessle said, "I found one of those voice recorders with a lot of old song ideas on it. I played the song to our producers, Clarence Öfwerman and Christoffer Lundquist, who liked it, so the day after I wrote the lyrics. Micke Andersson, Gyllene Tider's drummer, said "It is what you play when you're along the coast road down in Halmstad with a cute girl next to you."
