Now we'll finally discover the outcome of the matchup between E.M.M.A. and Bubbles. Of course, so far I can use only this album as E.M.M.A.'s merit but that should give some picture in any case.

#1 Tur & retur

The title track fails to get above basic level.

#2 Hollywood Boy 10

This, however, is wonderful. Somehow a light and glassy feeling, and actually a bit of resemblance to SMiLE.dk's Hollywood.

#3 Det är vi 9

I could almost give this five stars but not quite.

#4 Precis som du är 8

The first midtempo.

#5 1-2-3 8

I forgot to review this, must go back. Almost okay, I'd say.

#6 Där regnbågen slutar 10

The other wonder. Hard to decide which is better.

#7 En tjej som jag 8

None of the midtempoes have managed to convince me so far.

#8 Sol, vind & vatten 7

This is almost bad.

#9 Det bästa av allting är du

It begins to seem that Bubbles have nothing to worry about after all. It's stunning how they can make something this boring out of theoretically good things.

#10 Du försvinner 7

Bloah. The title makes me hope I could be listening to Markoolio's and Linda Bengtzing's "Värsta schlager" instead, where they say "Det är världen och den försvinner".

#11 Fantasi

I have a recollection that there would be three five-star tracks on this album. Which is the third one? Not this. It must be #3.

#12 Hela världen är vi två 7

Annoying.

#13 SMS (English) 10

Very good. I so should get the previous albums, if I only knew where. I still can't forget the misthought of hearing the chorus as "S/M sex with my best friend"... :O
