Background

 
Agnes' and Björn's performance during the wedding

The lyrics was written by Jörgen Elofsson, who has worked with Agnes before, and the music was written by Jörgen Elofsson & John Lundvik as the official wedding song. As a tribute to Victoria, Crown Princess of Sweden, Prince Daniel, Duke of Västergötland engaged Elofsson to compose a song that express what we feel when we fall in love with someone.[2] The single and EP is a part of the official wedding series, which is sold exclusively through ICA and iTunes.

The EP contains, except from three different versions of "When You Tell the World You're Mine", a selection of the music performed during the wedding ceremony in Storkyrkan. A part of the revenue from the single is going to the Crown Princess Couple Wedding foundation, to prevent alienation and improve good health among children in Sweden.

Right after the arch bishops speech, Agnes and Björn Skifs performed the song together with the choir of "Storkyrkan" and the orchestra. This marked the end of the ceremony, before Victoria and Daniel walked out to the porch and behind closed doors, Prince Daniel was awarded the Royal Order of the Seraphim, before leaving the cathedral.

Critical reception

Johan Lindqvist of Göteborgs-Posten stated:

"Jörgen Elofsson is a professional in delivering according to the client’s wishes and this was about getting a song that is romantic but not sentimental; grand but not pompous. The whole wedding was a balancing act in which to celebrate love, but stick to rules and protocols. It became a schlager, of course. Typically Sweden year 2010… Björn Skifs sings nicely and politely and represent the mature and the Nordic calm while Agnes is allowed to be bombastic in an American way. The result is as impeccable as predictable."[3]

The Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet had a similar opinion:

"As sweet and sentimental as Disney.... It isn't just an excellent duet, but it also has a modern touch. Almost original."[4]
