"Är det så här när man är kär" is a song written by Sven Goon, Gösta Rybrant, and originally recorded in Stockholm in November 1937 by Sven-Olof Sandberg with Willard Ringstrand's band, scoring a 1938 success with the song.[1] The song was also released as a 78 rpm record at Sonora 3331 in Sweden and rpm Telefunken T-8134 in Norway. The song was also recorded by Cool Candys on their 1965 album Twist Party and by Carin Swensson in 1978 on her album Bondkomikerns dotter.[2]

On 15 October 1994, the episode Erik the Great of the Bert TV series aired, featuring fictional band Heman Hunters performing the song with Bert having heard it at a record at his grandmother's home, before Klimpen arrives, disturbing the entire performance. The song also appeared on the 1994 Berts bästa betraktelser soundtrack album.[3] giving the song revival.
