I have a (stupid) question about this BRILLANT and PERFECT album... what does the word “Konstpaus” means ? :)

Thanks !
All the best

Kunstpause one says in German ;-)
Swedish can be so easy to learn sometimes for a German...

Well, I prefer juni juli augusti! Just perfect!

Hej

@ Santi - Great song... there was a party once in my university and I played “Solens Van”... people went crazy about it !! It kicks ass !! :)

My fave ones are : “Vandrande Man”, “Juni Juli Augusti”, “Det Ar Over Nu”, “Solens Van” and “Ingen Gar I Ringen” !!

This Cd is PERFECT... can’t stop playing it !! :)
all the best

@ Santi - I already knew the songs for a long time (I got it on the internet) but I only had the chance to FINALLY buy this Cd this week, thanks to a friend that went to Sweden and bought one copy for me !! :) I LOVE this Cd, it’s the best GT album in my opinion !! :)

All the best

Yupsssss..... Konstpaus is the best GT album/compilation!

“Konstpaus” means literally “artificial break”, but the meaning in English is “Pause for effect”.

Alfonsette said on May 11, 2003 22:40:

I also think that Konstpaus is the best GT album, in fact is the only one I like

daniel_alv said on May 11, 2003 22:53:

yeah, it’s the best

i don’t speak swedish, but “Faller Ner Pa Kna” sounds cool

frab said on May 12, 2003 06:30:

yeah, a brilliant album for the spring/summer

“Faller ner på knä” is also my favourite song and “Harplinge” is cool

xarrrr said on May 12, 2003 10:16:

yeh! Faller ner på knä is one of my favourites!!!!

and Det är Blommor Som Har Fångat Dig is great as well. its one of my favourite albums!!!!

i also like Halmstads Pärlor!!!! my friend got it for me 4 my birthday and its so cool!

roxtexanet said on May 14, 2003 17:02:

This is also my favourite GT CD (even though it’s a compilation)... I like GT’s ’90s stuff 1000 times better than most of what they did earlier... this really is a perfect summer CD, I’m hoping Per’s new CD captures the spirit of summer in Halmstad the same way these songs do!

When I heard of it’s release at first, I thought it meant “Constipation”!!! LOL!

I once had a dentist with that name - Dr. Konstpaus - all the women loved him....
