… but being a challenger on the Swedish national radio show and chart Trackslistan is a sort of dream coming true.
In the mid eighties, when the show started, every Saturday those two hours was sacred to me. It was Frankie goes to Hollywood with Two Tribes, Prince with Purple Rain and Pet Shop Boys with West End Girls, all the classic 80’s songs mixed with more questionably acts like Samantha Fox with Touch Me (I Want Your Body).

Yes, silly, but it felt good seeing us there, 20 years later.
We may make the chart, we may not, I’m just happy anyway.
