Swedish House Mafia was a Swedish electronic dance group which formed in late 2008.

The group split on March, 24, 2o13 but Axwell and Sebastian continued working together under the name Axwell Ingrosso.  We have had a look back over the years before the group split and put together their top five songs:

 

1) Whether you are a fan or not everyone know’s this song. ‘Don’t You Worry Child’ received a nomination for Best Dance Recording in the 2013 Grammy Awards.

In the UK the song made it’s debut at number one with first week sales of 135,000 copies. It sold 632,000 copies in 2012 and was the 13th best – selling single that year.

2) ‘Save the World’ received a nomination in 2011 for the Best Dance recording. The song sold 463,000 copies in the US, it also reached top spot in the US Hot Dance club songs and reached the 10th spot in the UK Singles Chart.

 

 

3) ‘Greyhound’ was released worldwide on March 12, 2012 as the third single from their album Until Now and was created to promote a drink for Absolut, Abolsut Greyhound.

 

 

4) ‘One’ was released in 2010 a month after the vocal version featuring Williams was played. The song peaked at number two in Belgium’s Dance Chart. It reached number one in Netherlands but only managed to reach number seven in the UK Singles Chart.

The song was named as a favourite song in a Teen React video when it became popular again in 2014.

 

5) ‘Miami to Ibiza’ reached number one on the UK Dance Chart Company and the US Billboard Hot 100. It also reached the top 10 in eight different countries

    4/5 If you love a good theme, Las Iguanas is a restaurant you might like to try.

  • Books Book Review: 1984 by George Orwell
    1/5 1984 is always cited as one of the best books ever written. It’s supposed to be intelligent, sharp and profound. Instead, I found it to be dull, rambling and unremarkable.
