"Hand i hand" is a song written by Magnus Uggla, and performed by him on the 1983 album Välkommen till folkhemmet. The chorus are taken from Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's violin concert. Song lyrics reflectt upon the hippie movement during the political left-wave in the Western World during the years around 1970.

Living for 10 years inside a flat at Västerlånggatan in Gamla stan, he would sometimes be awakened by songs like El Cóndor Pasa. Magnus Uggla would sometimes reply with playing heavy metal.

In 1998, a new version was released, together with Dogge Doggelito, peaking at 47th position at the Swedish singles chart.

Within the world of sports, the chorus is sometimes used as a cheering chant. It is sung.

  • Heja X-lag, tillsammans skall vi kämpa på. Krossa Y-lag. Vi älskar X-lag.

    • meaning:

  • Go X-team, together, we'll fight. Crush Y team. We love X team.
