February 21, 201510 yr Jon's song is the instrumentation from Fly On The Wings Of Love crossed with one of Enigma's more commercial songs from the early 90s. Great 15-25 years ago (and don't get me wrong, I think it's brilliant) but it would flop on its arse at Eurovision. I wouldn't chuck away Mariette to send that if I were Sweden.
February 21, 201510 yr Sorry but what the f*** is Jon's song? I'm not here for the chanting, not my thing at all. Isa's song is by FAR my favourite so far <3 Kristin's is lovely too.
February 21, 201510 yr I'm also not writing Ellen off completely, Insomnia seems a pretty radical departure from Songbird but it's not SO drastic an about turn as the likes of Kalla Natter that her vote is going to collapse completely.
February 21, 201510 yr Author 01 - Ellen Benediktson - Shit me this is the DOG'S CUNT *.* The inexplicable lovechild of Evan and Euphoria's self-harming cousin, with mesmerisingly obsessed verses. This so deserves to get to AC, but I'm ready for the new Ellen to give us a Globen or Bust classic facial expression if needs must. 02 - Kristin Amparo - Worldbeating, and classy and dignified enough that I'm stunned Kempe had anything to do with it. This is the kind of song Leona needs. 03 - Jon Henrik - this makes a lot more sense in full than it did in the clip. Absolutely massive (though still haven't got a clue where 'haunting' came from), and a deserved direkt finalist. 04 - Andreas Johnson - probably the only track here that takes a step down from the dreadful rehearsals. Still his best entry to date mind, if only for the sublime production, but it doesn't really feel like it goes anywhere. 05 - Kalle - congrats on making it to sixth hun 06 - Isa - an extra mark for the cowbell and an extra two marks for obviously being about cunnilingus, but that aside this adds nothing to the sum of human existence. 07 - Andreas - has G:son ever written anything so lifeless? Maja Güllstrand is spinning in her grave.
February 21, 201510 yr Insomnia is brilliant I agree, it's grown on me with 3 listens to the clip! I did grow to quite like Songbird in the end before the final, but it was too plain to really make too much of an impact on me - it was just "nice". This has a lot more substance to it but I agree it still feels kind of natural and not too much of a jump as it's still subtle.
February 21, 201510 yr I am here, although I haven't had the chance to listen to any of the 2:30 clips. Very excited for Jon and Ellen based on what you're all posting though.
February 21, 201510 yr I haven't listened to a THING again this week and I have interest in Elin and Kristin only, everything else seems to either be boring or rubbish on paper.
February 21, 201510 yr My feed is being jumpy too for now :drama: Hope it sorts itself out in time for the songs!
February 21, 201510 yr What a random intro to just have 2 nobodies (to my knowledge) singing Avicii...
February 21, 201510 yr Enjoyable but unexpected start to the heat, in a very Avicii mood tonight haha.
