4th studio album by Lars H.U.G. is both the more natural follow-up to his '87 album Kysser himlen farvel but also a continued fascination for classic Danish popular ballads / standards with a cover of "Hvorfor er lykken så lunefuld", which would become one of his biggest national hits. The album is co-produced by Kåre Bjerkø, Hilmer Hassig, Rene Cambony, and Finn Verwohlt, and it feature the backing band The Zombies consisting of Kåre Bjerkø, Stephan Grabowski, Hilmer Hassig, Flemming Muus, and Finn Verwohlt - the backbone who also participated on his two previous studio albums. The cd issue also includes the non-listed 'hidden track' cover of "Itzi bitsi" (originally by Steppeulvene).
Alongside his musical career, Lars H.U.G. has been working as a painter, and after his third solo album, and more dedicated following this release, he concentrated more on his visual art and would not release another studio album for another four years. On Medley Records, however, he released his first best of album G.R.E.A.T.E.S.T. in 1993.
