    No Cigar is easily one of the best punkrock songs ever written.

      I mean, sure! If the one and only Hoff thinks that way it must be true.

      It’s a good song but it isn’t a punk song....it’s a pop song

    It's funny to hear someone not swedish sing "the kid the whole day", which is a literal translation of a swedish expression. "Grabben hela dan" means someone who is happy, funny, helpful, alert. Peppy, I guess you would say in english. I've always enjoyed when Millencolin put swedish references in their lyrics. Like Battery Check for instance, to fully get it I guess you have to know that Linné is a part of Gothenburg where Nikola lives today and by driving north on E20 from Gothenburg you end up in his hometown Örebro after about 300km.

      Dude! Punk o rama 5 was the first place I ever heard millencollin too! But the song on that comp is Black Eye. Still my all time fav by them. So glad i randomly picked up that comp at the record store all those years ago.

    What I find absolutely staggering about this version is Mike's ability to match Nikola's enunciation. He does such a great job of imitating the timbre of his voice. There's something about how Nikola sing that is generally only heard in non-native speakers singing in English. (Hi-standard are similiar) Mike crushes it here. Amazing cover.
