February 19, 20214 yr And yes, I am almost solely here for the return of HARLOT storming into 6th place.
February 25, 20214 yr Heat 4 Clips are out... Tess Merkel – Good Life: eek I don't like this at all. Lovad – Allting är precis likadant: cute thanks Efraim Leo – Best Of Me: best of the heat so far, but not all that good either. Sounds like every other song on the radio right now. The Mamas – In The Middle: sounds impeccable, but underwhelming. Sannex – All Inclusive: oh I like this ha! I'm sure it will get lost in the big names in this heat. 5th maybe? Clara Klingenström – Behöver inte dig Idag: cute but boring and forgettable. Eric Saade – Every Minute: hopefully builds up to something bigger because this is just flat Melfest just hasn't hit it for me this year.
February 25, 20214 yr Author Really liking the sound of Eric, Efraim, Tess and The Mamas (their song sounds SO Greatest Showman) so hopefully they can be the top 4 but I'm worried Sannex might upset proceedings (probably at the expense of Tess), not sure we really need them when we've already got Arvingarna. Lovad and Clara are the clear filler spots.
February 25, 20214 yr I already think The Mamas will win the whole shebang again. They’ll elevate that song massively and with the added wind in their sales as being automatically rooted for from the public, it looks good for them.
February 25, 20214 yr Tess, Clara and The Mamas sound pretty brilliant, I'll take that and most likely start wanting The Mamas to win this whole thing again. Not a good one for the boys though, Eric is more varying shades of urgh, not this again and Efraim sounds horrible.
February 25, 20214 yr I never cared that much for Move, but loved the follow-up single Let It Be. In The Middle sounds more similar to that, so I'm happy, although I'm not sure it sounds like a winner for them this time. Eric's is much dancier than I expected, I'm not sure his voice really suits the song as I expect to hear a deeper, bassier male vocal on top of production like that. We were all expecting Danny and Eric to fight for victory but based on their songs they'll be fighting for 3rd/4th place instead. I guess it's Tusse vs Dotter then! I would expect Tusse to get it but I hope Dotter can carry over some of the residual goodwill from last year, it's such a fantastic track. Harsh for her to do a Danny and finish second in consecutive years, but I can see it happening.
February 25, 20214 yr Any reason why you think Tusse to win? Does any one remember where dotter came in the twlevote and jury last year? I remember it was sooo close
February 25, 20214 yr Any reason why you think Tusse to win? Does any one remember where dotter came in the twlevote and jury last year? I remember it was sooo close Not gooddelta but I think Tusse is the current favourite to win according to the betting odds. It’s a good and anthemic song so it’s definitely a contender. I hope and think it’ll come down to Dotter v. Tusse with maybe The Mamas contesting with help from a sympathy vote for winning last year but not getting to perform.

I hope and think it’ll come down to Dotter v. Tusse with maybe The Mamas contesting with help from a sympathy vote for winning last year but not getting to perform. Basically this, plus he already just won Idol only a year ago so has proven public support, and the public will be accustomed to his background and story which will endear him to many. If he’s not top two I’ll be amazed.

March 2, 20214 yr 99 Elisa Lindstrom - Den du är :angry: It's the best Melodifestifalen song from last 7 years.
March 2, 20214 yr ^YEAH! TELL THEM! well, maybe after the Mamas and Arvingarna, but it's one of the highlights of this Melfest and is horribly underrated.

I'm resigned to knowing Dotter is going to be this decade's Ace Wilder and that close victory is the best she's gonna get. Frustrating that Paul Rey & Frida Green are against one another in Andra Chansen - clearly two duds that haven't really connected with anyone, I'd much rather see any of the other six advance.
March 2, 20214 yr Ugh of course Klara is up against the second highest act in the AC but hopefully she manages to qualify to the final!
March 2, 20214 yr Frustrating that Paul Rey & Frida Green are against one another in Andra Chansen - clearly two duds that haven't really connected with anyone, I'd much rather see any of the other six advance. Yeah I wish they'd just drop this format and let the four with the highest votes progress to the final, I get that it's 3rd vs 4th from the semis but some heats are stronger than others so it's never going to be an exact science of the four most popular songs going through with the duels. I would so love to see both Clara and Eva and Ewa in the final, but the only solace I take from them being up against one another is at least they won't both be dumped out.
