Anders has written most of the CD's 15 tracks. The title track Pause'n'Rewind is a good illustration of the context that fits most of the songs on this CD. The CD is all about rock'n'roll and swinging music, but nevertheless many of the songs also has story to tell. In Window View, for example, Karin sings a story about staying inside and looking at the world through the window instead of going outside, which can be seen as a metaphor for a contemporarily spread lifestyle of today - there's no condemnation involved though, instead the songs together form comforting message. And overall, the partly melancholic or reflective lyrics give some further nuances to the music, but the main message is still: rock'n'roll!
Along with the new originals, there are also the ''unkoolified'' songs. Richard Andersson has invented the verb unkoolify: ''There are these classics that you have heard countless of times without rally reflecting upon them, and there are these classics that seem to talk to you, the kind of songs that you would like to speak back to. If you're able to scratch out the identity, the soul, of the an existing song and you from that are able to shape your own version, add a new angle and re-interpret it your own way - to make it sound like a song of The Unkool Hillbillies - that is to unkoolify''. Little Richard (Send Me Some Loving) and Carl Perkins (Gone Gone Gone) are two unkoolified contributions on this CD.
