Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “4 sekunder” as song written and compsoed by Anders Henriksson and Magnus Uggla, originally recorded by Magnus Uggla and released in 1993. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewBest approached as a cultural-object dossier: authorship and date matter, but circulation and reception often explain the wider significance. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1993—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where sekunder, song and written can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the arts & letters register because the source frames it as song written and compsoed by Anders Henriksson and Magnus Uggla, originally recorded by Magnus Uggla and released in 1993. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 16, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q10397325. The first chronological checks are 1993.

Critical limits

Later fame can flatten the distinction between original context, subsequent adaptation and institutional collecting history. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Separate the work, its editions or performances, and its later reception. Catalogue records, publication histories and object files often preserve different parts of that story.
