They were initially influenced by 1970 's art rock and post-punk acts like Roxy Music , David Bowie , Joy Division , Magazine and Ultravox but adopted a more sophisticated synthpop and new romantic style on their most successful albums '' Uppdrag i Genève '' and '' En plats i solen '' . The latter album was produced by Richard Barbieri from the British group Japan and featured saxophone playing on three tracks by Mick Karn . The following year an English-language version of that album , '' A Place in the Sun '' , was released under the group name '' Vanity Fair '' , but with no commercial success . By 1984 Johan Kinde had parted ways with the other original members and released two further albums as Lustans Lakejer and then embarked on a solo career . Lustans Lakejer reformed in the 1990s and released the critically acclaimed album '' Åkersberga '' in 1999 . In 2007 they reunited again to perform the song " Allt vi en gång trodde på " in Melodifestivalen 's second semifinal for the opportunity to represent Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 in Helsinki , Finland . The band failed to make the top five and was voted off the contest on 10 February before final voting
