Plugget is a colloquial, informal term for "school" in Swedish, similar to how one might say "uni" for university or "school" in a casual context in English.
In the song, it appears in the line "I plugget så pratar de om Tommy varje rast" (At school, they talk about Tommy every break). This word immediately places the listener in the youthful, everyday world of the song's protagonist, offering a glimpse into authentic, informal Swedish language used by teenagers.
Get ready for a blast from the past with this super catchy 80s pop hit from Swedish superstar Carola! "Tommy Tycker Om Mig" (which means "Tommy Likes Me") tells a story every teenager knows well: having a crush your parents just don't approve of. The singer's mom and dad want her to stay home, thinking the boy she likes, Tommy, is bad news. But she's head over heels and can't be convinced.
This song perfectly captures the feeling of a first love. While her parents worry, she daydreams about Tommy, the popular boy at school who all the other girls have a crush on. But she has a secret—Tommy gave her his photo! She knows his feelings are real, even if he acts a little cool and casual (nonchalant). It's a sweet and energetic song about young love, secrets, and that amazing feeling when you know your crush likes you back.
