Six months after the debut Torben Westergaard replaced Georg Olesen, who at the time still played with Warm Guns. In 1983 they released Beat were the development of the band gathered speed. tv·2 still had not won the heart of the big record buying audience, but by rapping his way through "the Admirals Song" from H.M.S. Pinafore, renamed "Popsangerens Vise" secured success. On the album "Rigtige Mænd Gider Ikke Høre Mere Vrøvl" the title track became a hit song all over the country and the album sold over 250,000 copies. In 1988, they released Nærmest Lykkelig which was proclaimed the best album, the band so far had released, by the music press.

The album Yndlingsbabe was released two years later and the album contained the hit song "Der Går Min Klasselærer". 1999 had no new album from tv·2, instead they looked back. In part with a live double album Verdens lykkeligste band: Live 99 (disc 1) and Verdens lykkeligste band: Live 99 (disc 2) and in part with Manden der ønskede sig en havudsigt a show where a number of tv·2 hits were played with the aid of a group of modern dancers. The album released in 2001, Amerika. One year later they release På Kanten af Småt Brændbart with the hit songs "Big Time og Honning" og "Herlev, det er skønt". In 2004 a double album, "Hits", containing hits from the beginning of their career up to 2004 was released. All talk of mid-life crisis silenced when tv·2 in November of 2005 released De første kærester på månen. Even though it was released late in the year the album ended up being the most sold album in Denmark that year, and by the spring of 2006 it has sold more than 140,000 copies.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
er der noget du har glemt eller hva skal vi tro?
