Vagnar av guld – Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends
With “Vagnar av guld,” Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends delivers a warm, reflective Swedish-language single that bridges generations. Written as both a tribute to his children and grandchildren and a meditation on his own childhood, the song unfolds like a series of carefully preserved snapshots — small, luminous memories shaped by time. Sung in Swedish in its original form, the track carries an intimacy that feels rooted in place and personal history, giving the narrative added emotional weight. An English-language version is set to appear on a forthcoming full-length album scheduled for release in May 2026, expanding its reach while preserving its heart.

Musically, “Vagnar av guld” leans into melodic craftsmanship and classic pop sensibilities. The drumming from Andreas Quincy Dahlbäck provides a graceful, organic backbone, while lush harmonies from David Myhr — evoking the sunlit vocal layering of The Beach Boys — add warmth and lift. Myhr’s Hammond textures further enrich the arrangement, giving the song a nostalgic glow without tipping into sentimentality. The production feels timeless rather than retro, allowing melody and storytelling to take center stage.
In another chapter of his musical life, the artist performed as part of the Swedish band Redmoon, but this solo project reveals a more introspective and personal voice. “Vagnar av guld” stands as both homage and self-portrait — a gentle reflection on growing up, holding on, and passing something meaningful forward.
