The group's biggest hits were "Förlist" (Shipwrecked) and "Vandraren" (The Wanderer). The group split up in 1998 because of the lead singer's drug problem, but reunited in 2004. They made a comeback in the Swedish Melodifestivalen with the song "Ödet var min väg" (The fate was my way) and released a comeback album called Anno 2005 in 2005.
In 2008, they competed once again in Melodifestivalen with the song I lågornas sken and finished in sixth place behind winner Charlotte Perrelli.

Det Sista Du Ser
by: NordmanÅ jag önskar att det vore för alltid det jag har med dig men jag lovar dig när allting är slut den sista du ser - är mig och den sista du hör - är mig ser du isen börjar smälta vi stranden snart är viken fri en gång satt vi där när solen var röd-de sista som brann var vi det sista som fanns var vi du är mitt liv- om vi bara har timmar kvar lev med mig då det är aldrig försent fast en måste gå det finns någont mer i det nya som väntar dig och det sista du ser - är mig spring nu ut på dina blommande ängar mörkret samlar sig och när natten släcker ljuset ikväll den sista du ser - är mig och den sista du hör - är mig tiden samlar oss som regn i ett hav-den glömmer inte dig blir du rädd för denna glittrande grav-den sista du ser är mig det sista du hör är mig du är mitt liv
