What’s this? Swedish pop icons Lili & Susie have gone and recorded a cover version of ‘Tycker Om Dig’, the 1969 hit single from another Swedish pop icon, Sylvia Vrethammar.
What have they gone and done that for? They performed it as part of TV4’s new show Secret Song, in which celebrities sing songs for other celebrities. We’ve not looked too deep into the format, tbh, largely because of TV4’s contrarion, usually geo-blocked, always a nightmare to use streaming platform, meaning we’d never actually be able to watch it.
And was the cover a well executed endeavour? It was! This new version is a bright and playful synthpop re-imagining that actually brings to mind early Lili & Susie material from the ’80s, as well as being a tribute to Our Sylv.
More from Lili & Susie? More synth stylings from the pair in the form of last November’s single, ‘Drömmar‘.
You can find ‘Tycker Om Dig’ on our Best New Pop playlist.
