[edit] Overview

It contains two discs, one with recordings from some of their acoustic concerts, and the other one collecting the live electric tracks. Two different releases were made, a regular one and a digipack limited edition. I Can't Find My Way Home is Øystein Greni's favourite track which was written in the 60's by Steve Winwood from the Blind Faith rock band.

The other non-LP electric tracks are Wrong Number (Girl In Oslo EP '00) and Better Than Before (Girl In Oslo Europe EP '01). Acoustic tracks Old People (New Glow EP '00) and Smiling For (Smiling For EP '01) are EP-only numbers. Remaining songs Lights Go Out and Cry Right were concert tunes never released before.

Radio Radio TV Sleep has gone platinum and became the most successful live album ever released in Norway. The video version of the album, known as "Radio Radio TV Sleep" DVD, features six tracks taken from each disc plus bonus material such as music videos and TV live, including a cover of Jimi Hendrix's Purple Haze which Øystein Greni played on Norwegian television twelve years old.

The album title was a play on the combination one could enter on the remote control in order to get free pay-TV in Norwegian hotels.
