Veronica and Nina first formed their band as Smile and published their first album Smile in 1998. It received wide attention, especially in Japan. Several songs in this album were included in EMI Dancemania compilations, of which one of the songs, "Butterfly", was eventually licensed by Konami into the first version of Dance Dance Revolution. Since then, Butterfly has become one of the most popular songs in Dance Dance Revolution's history.
Smile manages to create many moods and scenarios through their music. Ranging from up-tempo to tender sensitive ballads, and of course the tracks are bound together by the beautiful voices of Malin and Veronica.
Veronica started singing and dancing at the very young age of five. Her first international release was in Japan 1995 with the Swedish group” Look Twice”. She was the lead singer of the band, accompanied by two male rappers – “Vinny” and “Crazy G”. She stayed a part of the band “Look Twice” until the year 1997. Today Veronica lives outside of Malmö. She’s married and in 2004 she became a mom.
Malin started singing and dancing when she was 5 years old. As she got older, Malin performed as a background singer for many popular Swedish musicians. One of her characteristics is her smile. Today Malin lives in Stockholm and she also became a mom in 2005.
This project was brought to life by Robert Uhlmann and Robin Rex. (Robert & Robin had worked together for about a year when they decided to try a new pop project which later turned out to be called Smile .dk). In 1997 they spent the whole summer writing lyrics. The songs then were presented to different record companies in Denmark. Later they signed a contract with EMI.
In 2008, Smile.dk went through some major changes. Signed to a new record label, new producers, and a new band member were just some of the changes.
Due to personal matters, Malin had to leave the group. After the departure, Veronica asked a fellow recording partner, Hanna, to join her in the studio. Hanna is now the newest, and youngest member of Smile.dk. Now Veronica and Hanna are back with Smile.dk producing new music that fans are sure to love! Along with the announcement of returning to the music world, Smile.dk also announced plans several US performances. The future has a lot in store for this duo, so stay tuned!

La, la, la, la, la, la (Wa, ha, ha, ha, ha!)

Looked how I fancied up myself for you
So look a little bit at me today
You know you gotta try a little harder
So you can be my, my, my, my darling!
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,

I try my best to get to you somehow
So think a little bit of me today
You know you gotta show me that you love me
And baby, be my, my, my, my darling!
Smile a little smile, let's enjoy the moment now
And just have a good time (a good time!)
Try it baby, (good!)
Just a little bit of love and gonna feel so fine
Is it really true that you feel the same way too and hope we'll be together?
Now you know that I love you - love you - love you - love you - love you
Loved you - loved you - loved you - loved you - loved you!
I looked the meaning of (Wow, wow, wow)
The funny word we call "love" (Wow, wow, wow)
And then I wrote your name beside it with a little heart above (Whoo!)
If I would start to dream a dream (Wow, wow, wow)
Would my dreams be what they seem? (Wow, wow, wow)
All night long, I lie and dream of me and you
And me - and you - and me - and you!
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,

Or will you just be my, my, my, my friend?
Tell me what you're thinking
Keep it sweet and simple
Baby, everything's okay (okay!)
Try it baby, (try it!)
Open up your heart and be honestly sincere
Is it really true that you prefer it too?
We go a little slower
That's what makes you so cute
So cute - so cute - so cute - so cute
So cute - so cute - so cute - so cute - so cute!
When I'm sitting thinking of (Wow, wow, wow)
The funny word we call "love" (Wow, wow, wow)
I still don't think of you at first
My family still comes above (Whoo!)
If you wanna capture me (Wow, wow, wow)
It's as simple as can be (Wow, wow, wow)
Mr. Lennon said it, "All you need is love".
My love - my love - my love - my love!
