"There’s most definitely that mixture of styles that was implied in that title and the reasons behind it. And while he doesn’t shy away from many, he successfully manages to not suck at any either. "..."While we were all concentrating on fancy LED lights flashing behind him, Benjamin Ingrosso was busy becoming one of the best artists that Sweden has to offer the world right now."

I love that he mixes various styles, as it is mentioned here, and all his songs, even those before this album, sound quite different from each other. :D Scandipop also adores "So Good So Fine When You’re Messing With My Mind" like I do.

This is my favorite already, maybe just because of that!!! :D I really love the rhythm and the vibe, I've started to love it immediately. All snippets sounds excellent, I am so excited, super hyped! :D xcheer

Yes, me too. Finally its time xcheer
Surprisingly my Favourite Snippet is from the Song about his EX-GF although I usually dont like such deep songs. But this song has so much personality and authenticity. In General, all of his Songs are full of personality and not just any normal popsongs. All songs describe a part of his Story and this is what amazes me so much.

I've just finished the first listening of "Identification". I also love that song you've mentioned, very emotional, and lyrics are beautiful. I love the whole album, and I am not sure (just for now :D) which songs are favorites of mine, but they are all great. I think he is actually with that girl now (Linnea Widmark), they are dating for five years, with one break-up that happened before last years' Melodifestivalen and lasted almost a year. He was speaking about it a lot in his Eurovision interviews, when he was explaining how DYO was made. That was the time that "Dance You Off" and "Good Lovin" were written, and some of the songs from this album. For me, sad moment is also when he said in "Spotlights" :"See I was only fifteen, labels didn’t want me, they saw me on the TV, said I didn’t have a story, so I had to prove it, did it with my music". I can feel how he kept fighting for his dreams, even though almost everyone thought it was always easy for him, because of his family. :D I must say that this album is 100% of what I expected it to be, it is completely his style ( what we could see from his previous singles :D) and his story.

My Ranking after first Listening:

#1: "Dance you off": I listened to it around 1500-2000 Times this year. I can't give my #1 to someone else xqueenbitch

#2: "I'll be fine somehow": Very emotional Track. I totally feel it, although I usually dont like deep Songs.

#3: "All I see is you": I love ths 80s Vibe here. It reminds me of one of my favourite Atomic Kitten Songs when I was a Teenager.

#4: "Spotlight": I love the story here.

#5: "So good, so fine when you're messing with my mind: "Dance you off"s lil Brother. This is totally his style.

#6: "Behave": I love his Falsetto. I got a Earwig from the first listening.

#7: "Good Intentions": I especially love the Bridge here and the backgroundsinging.

#8: "No sleep": One of the most modern songs here. Its good to bring diversity to this Album.

#9: "I wouldnt know": A good radiofriendly Song. But I think there were better songs for a Videoclip.

#10: "Love Songs": Reminds me a bit of "knocking on heavens door" somehow. I like the guitarsound in the background.

#11: "If this Bed could talk": Very emotional Ballad with sincere lyrics. But a bit too deep for me tbh.

#12: "Happyness": An ok Song, but clearly the weakest Part of this Album.

I agree comletely with you, my friend, about Dance You Off, that song has special place in my heart, that is the song that made me to get to know about such amazing and talented artist. I'll make my review of the songs in few days, too. ��

It is clear that in the end Benjamin will be the biggest star of ESC 2018.
His album is really good! :)

Yes, thats why Im happy that the Juries gave him a deserved 2nd Place. Eurovision is a career-springboard and career-killer and Benjamin has together with Eleni the most career-potential among all participants this year.

New single! This one is real fire, much better than "I Wouldn't Know", outstanding production, and beautiful falsetto.

One more clip from Nyhetsmorgon, live version. Together with "Behave", one of my top favorites from album, even though whole album is real quality.

"Identification" is charting/charted in many European countries, it is quite great success, I am really really glad about our favorite Eurovision boy. xcheer xmusic Whole album has reached over 2 million streams already in just two days. When I catch more free time, I'll post my favorites from album and short review, too. :D
