These are known as the "Low Key/Late Night-sessions",[3] referring to the low audio and video quality of the videos, and the time of recording, which was usually in the small hours of the night. The recordings were predominantly of Christensen's own material (released and unreleased), but also included a few cover versions, including "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You".[4] Inspired by these performances, Christensen recorded six cover songs in a very minimalistic and intimate way, featuring only Christensen singing and playing acoustic guitar.[3] The last song is a duet with Irish singer-songwriter Gemma Hayes.[3] Reception{{Album ratings| rev1 = GAFFA | rev1Score = {{rating|4|6}}[1] | rev2 = Lydtapet.net | rev2Score = {{rating|4|6}}[5] }} The EP received few reviews, but the reviews that were written were moderately positive. One reviewer puts it as, "There is truly a 'campfire-deluxe' atmosphere over these takes on songs, that don't whip the carpet out from under the listener, but that surely do not irritate."[1] Another review concludes with the words: "This EP is not a major release, but it is exactly what the title suggests. A nice little interlude, recorded without the heavy pressure of expectations that usually surrounds a Tim Christensen release."[5] Track listing{{track listing| headline = Side one | title1 = Shot in the Dark | note1 = | writer1 = Ozzy Osbourne, Phil Soussan | length1 = 2:39 | title2 = Enjoy the Silence | note2 = originally performed by Depeche Mode | writer2 = Martin Gore | length2 = 2:32 | title3 = Next To Me | note3 = | writer3 = Emeli Sandé, Hugo Chegwin, Harry Craze | length3 = 3:18 }}{{track listing | headline = Side two | title4 = Hunting High and Low | note4 = originally performed by a-ha | writer4 = Pål Waaktaar | length4 = 2:11 | title5 = How Am I Supposed to Live Without You | note5 = | writer5 = Michael Bolton, Doug James | length5 = 3:14 | title6 = A Way to Say Goodbye | note6 = | writer6 = Mike Viola | length6 = 2:57 }}{{tracklist | collapsed = yes | headline = Japan bonus tracks[2] | title7 = Oh My Love | note7 = | writer7 = John Lennon, Yoko Ono | length7 = | title8 = Happy Xmas (War Is Over) | note8 = | writer8 = Lennon, Ono | length8 = | title9 = Blackbird | note9 = originally performed by The Beatles | writer9 = Lennon, Paul McCartney | length9 = }} Personnel
