“Hon ser sitt liv på film den kvällen
Ser ängen där hon lekte varje vår
Hon minns den första kyssen
Som om det var igår
Och kvällen blev natt,
Kvällen blev natt så fort...”

A couple of years ago I and a number of friends started a task to make top lists within different musical categories. One of the top lists was Sweden top 25 where the task simply was to make a top list of the 25 best Swedish songs ever.

Simple and simple, it turned out to be a quite difficult task but one thing was simple to pick the best Swedish song ever namely this one.

Tonight Joakim Thåström, singer in the band Imperiet, plays live at the Popaganda festival in Stockholm. I cannot imagine that he will play this song live though which in some ways is a shame. This is indeed a song that he should play live whenever he is on a stage.

Imperiet – Saker som hon gör is found on the record ”Synd” released in 1986.
