In November 1997, Kent released Isola . They had toured heavily with Verkligen , which had gained them some reputation. The pre-release single from Isola , ” Om du var här ” (If You Were Here), became a radio hit. Musically the album was quite different from Verkligen , going further in the direction of slower, more thoughtful songs with more emotion. The last song on the album, the 7 minute, 47 second-long ” 747 “, with a characteristic keyboard riff and a long instrumental outro, became the band’s closer for every show for the next six years. It was also released as a single, cut down to four minutes and with an added short chorus. The album reached number one in Sweden. Kent went on to tour through Scandinavia from November 1997 to February 1998.
