[2][3] Tracks from this album, "Alla Mina Bästa År", "Ögonen" and "Även En Blomma", have been remixed for Frida – The Mixes.

At the time of recording, Frida did not want the attention an international release would bring, but she also felt for singing in her mother tongue again.

[2][4] A one-hour documentary of the making, video clips and recording of the album (titled 'Frida – mitt i livet') was broadcast on Sveriges Television.

Djupa andetag was met with a favorable reception, with critics citing the theme and Lyngstad's approach to singing on the album as positives.

Critic Bruce Eder of AllMusic has praised Lyngstad for her 'relatively low-wattage' voice, the content and her vocal style on the album as 'more expressive and personal than any of her singing on those earlier records', as well as noting that it was a mature step for the singer and commenting, on her singing's volume, that 'less is more'.
