Swedish journalist Håkan Pettersson included "Den ständiga resan" at number three on his list of the best albums of 1992, while "Sveriges Television" described it as Fredriksson's "great masterpiece" and "an obvious soundtrack to the hardships of adulthood." They elaborated that the tracks were tuned to the "same tone as the disillusionment and loneliness of adulthood, and nothing is as comforting as when Sweden's best singer puts words and music to these dark thoughts." Fredriksson was nominated for three awards at the 1993 Grammis, the Swedish equivalent of the Grammy Awards. She won the award for Artist of the Year, and also received nominations for Songwriter of the Year, as well as Pop/Rock – Female.
