Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Per get only one award and not two?

The award is for “the composer of the year and/or the lyricist of the year”. Not always the same person writes both the music and the lyrics. But you’re right, this time it actually was only one award.

OK, I was already wondering if I had misunderstood the articles when the nominations where given out, expecially since their page says something about “six categories again this year”...
BTW: Wow, you’re here early! ;-)
