Comment: "his" and "him" in the last half of the sentence read as ambiguous; it is not immediately clear to a reader whether they refer to Basshunter, Avicii, or a mix of the two.

PCN02WPS: I added the names to quote and article. Should last "his" be ommitted?

Free of
copyright violations,
plagiarism, and
close paraphrasing: - The sentence regarding the EQ Music review is directly copied from the review itself. If that was intentional it should be in quotes, otherwise it should be paraphrased.
@
Legoktm: I paraphrased it a little but I don't have idea how to write "Basshunter flex his artistry in different synthy and softer electronic-pop directions" and "The track replicates the boundary-pushing signature style" in different way and not change the meaning so for now it is "since "Home" and "Angels Ain't Listening" Basshunter developed his music style in different synthy and softer electronic-pop directions" and "track recreates the boundary-pushing style of the late Avicii music".

Other problems: - I am skeptical this meets
WP:NSINGLE, at best it's pretty borderline. The Aftonbladet source is good, and then there's one from EQ Music. The NetFan.pl article covers Boten Anna more than this single (and reads like a press release), and the Radar de Media one is 3 sentences. With only two non-trivial sources, I'm really not sure.
@
Legoktm: There are listed a few additional sources on article talk page but I did not find the way to use them in article.

I reviewed all the sources on the talk page and they're all trivial mentions or just inclusion in a list of new music. I also spent some time looking for more sources and couldn't find any. My inclination is to decline this on the ground that the article is not notable, but I'm going to ask for a second opinion, please stay tuned.

Other problems: - As mentioned earlier, the he/him/his is ambiguous, and the text in the article has the same issue.

QPQ: None required.
Overall: I'm going to make a few minor copy edits to the article as well.

One more thing, the lead currently is a list of a bunch of companies that released the single, which feels unnecessarily promotional. I think the lead would benefit from dropping that, just focusing on the people who wrote it and a sentence about its creation or meaning.
