          Sedikit ulasan mengenai Swedish Music. Banyak yang menganggap Swedish pop itu mirip-mirip sama Brit-PoP  (British Pop). Swedish pop punya ciri khas yang beda dari pop Inggris ataupun Amerika. Pop Inggris lebih jangly dan lirik nya sedikit dark, pop Swedia lebih innocent sweet dan mellow, jadi lebih menyentuh dan sexy. hehe
