Last year the swedish versions of the songs won the Manifest gala for best music for children with the motivation:

"Poetiska funderingar som tar barns tankar om alternativa liv på allvar. Till stämningsfulla, svängiga och jazziga toner utforskar vi de fantastiska världar som skulle kunna vara våra!"

That is: “Poetic refections that take childrens thoughts on alternative lives seriously. Accompanied by moving, trendy and jazzy tunes, we explore the fantastic worlds that could be ours!”
