Critical reception
[edit]Expressen's Andreas Nunstedt called Per Gessle "a pop genius" and described the song as a "happy love story where disco meets synthpop".[4] Håkan Steen from Aftonbladet describes "Silly Really" in a similar way ("a beat that feels like Blondie in a disco mood"). Even if "the single may not sound that modern", he said the song is a sure hit for the Swedish radio.[5]
