We have some weak pop songs (1,2), household names with shitty songs (4,5), trying too hard to have current sound (3,6). However, tropical sound WAS current And finally, we have the last song which is usually a clear winner, and for this semi it's Benjamin. I am in love with the staging, a bit like Robin, but much better. Song on the other hand sounds too much Charlie Puthish. I am waiting for the whole performance.

Bellatrix 34,639 Posted February 2, 2018 Author Share Posted February 2, 2018 Benjamin seem to be the best one of these 7. Then I must say that I like Kikki Danielsson. It's a charming song. @Dutch She is famous indeed. She began her career in 1969 and was pretty big in the US during the 80s known as the Swedish country Queen. She has also represented Sweden in Eurovision two times before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will bring he to the final for sure, but like I said, she will probably flop really hard in the final. 42 minutes ago, Bellatrix said: You can also watch 30 seconds of the rehearsals here: https://www.svtplay.se/video/16862470/melodifestivalen-2018-smygtitta-pa-bidragen/melodifestivalen-2018-smygtitta-pa-bidragen-sigrid-bernson-patrick-swayze Normally they release the snippets on Thursday and the rehearsals on Friday, right?

I hope she doesn't flop tho, she doesn't deserve it Normally they only release a minute of the rehearsals on Thursays and then 2 minutes and 30 seconds of the studio versions on Saturdays so the minute of the studio versions yesterday was a surprise.

Bellatrix 34,639 Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 What's the Eurovision world without a little drama? Kamferdrops entry in tonights Melodifestivalen is in the risk of getting disqualified as the song has been published on youtube and myspace eight years ago and also performed live by another artist. Mess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellatrix 34,639 Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Kamferdrops will not get disqualified tonight. After investigation they could come to the conclusion that none of the songwriters had any purpose to release it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
