"Sway is a pure Top 40 pop album, jammed with breathy whispers, earth-shaking sex anthems, and bedazzled, Charli XCX-style melodies. But no matter how loud they get, the songs play like inner monologues. They're not confessional, but they are intimate in the sense that they find Styrke asking herself (and often her friends) highly personal questions: Why do we love or hate or want to sleep with this one particular person? How are my brain and my body reacting to this touch? This joie de vivre and curiosity about the psychology behind human connection make Sway Tove Styrke's most cohesive work to date-and one of the most exuberant albums in recent memory".

"Tove Styrke var bare 16 år gammel, da hun fik en tredjeplads i det svenske talenshow "Idol". Nu er hun 25 og har begået et helt eminent elektropopalbum ... Sway er en helstøbt og meget fin popperle, der kan tåle heftig rotation til sommerens grillaftener og ferieflirts. Det var godt, Tove Styrke ikke kom på førstepladsen i "Idol", så var hun sikkert ikke endt her".

"Clocking in at just 26 minutes, 'Sway' is a succinct but comprehensive statement from Styrke - one that demands attention and declares her as a musical tour-de-force. The release of this album comes in between a string of dates with industry darling Lorde and this month's shows with pop behemoth Katy Perry. Although Styrke is supporting them now, 'Sway' proves it won't be long until she's standing shoulder to shoulder with them".
