2008 release, the eighth full length from the Swedish singer/songwriter. This time around, she and her long time associate, Lasse Halapi choose to record these songs in a given order several nights in a row, thereby letting the songs influence each other and grow forth in a spontaneous flow. From these sessions the best takes were chosen. The end result is the magic of the moment - the music as it was played there and then. It lives and breathes, providing the perfect setting for Sophie's soft and beautiful voice, singing words of yearning, regret and bittersweet love. 12 tracks. Sony/BMG.
