It was last summer when Albin Lee Meldau was lying on a beach as he looked at his mobile phone at pictures of "children, blood and blown-up hospitals", that he decided to write the single.
"I was affected by more anxiety than usual and started writing. I can not do much, but the little I can is to write and sing. Release music and donate the money that it would generate", he says in a press release.
He believes that those who do not protest will end up on the wrong side of history and appeals: "Please Ulf. It is you who rules in Sweden/Let us add another place to the list./Sharpeville. Katyn. Babij jar. Gaza."
The last mentioned verse is a reference to the then Prime Minister Olof Palme's televised condemnation of the US bombings of Hanoi during the Vietnam War in December 1972, when he listed places associated with atrocities.
The surplus from the single goes uncut to organizations that make a difference for children in war-torn areas.
