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.[6] 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."[6]
