Sweden’s ‘94 World Cup anthem gets a next-gen reboot

The children of GES, the trio behind Sweden's best loved World Cup football anthem, "När Vi Gräver Guld i USA", have made a new version of their fathers' 1994 hit song to mark Sweden's return to American soil for the 2026 World Cup later this month. Thirty-two years ago, "När Vi Gräver Guld i USA" or, "When We Dig For Gold in the USA", provided a popular backdrop to Sweden's best ever World Cup on foreign soil, when they finished third. Listen to Julia Glenmark, Kid Eriksson and Simon Strömstedt talk to Radio Sweden about the reworked anthem and why their fathers' original is still so popular today.
