For me the lyrics are not the most important part of the song - for me it is more about the melody, production and singing skills which make a song interesting. Of course good lyrics can carry it even further. This might be the reason why I listen to so many songs in different languages.

Sad about all 3 eliminations. It wasn’t the best song for any of them but even with that none of them were below half way in my rankings.

Roosevelt is one of the more interesting artists that I didn’t really know at all before this. I really like his sound and just thought this track could have developed more.

And this is why music is wonderfully subjective :)

Oh of course, I agree... but still those lyrics were dire! 😂 Still loved the song (in Swedish) 🤭

Jessie and Ultravox I’m surprised are leaving!

Roosevelt not so much

Sad to see all 3 go though

You're all I want, yeah
I know you're the one, yeah
You're all I want, yeah
I know you're the one, yeah

Crash into me
At full speed
Crash into me
We can collide
We can collide

Crash into me
At full speed
We can collide
We can collide
We can collide
We can collide

✨✨✨

I want you to hold me
Don't let me go
Be the one and only
Take all control

Stay with me forever
At least for the night
Even when you leave me
Lead me to the light

You are my desire, oh
And just the thought of you is keeping me awake
You take me higher, oh
Take me away
You are my desire, oh
And just the thought of you is keeping me awake
You take me higher, oh
Take me away

Take me away

Promise you won't wake me
Before you leave
Leave me in a daydream
Just you and me

Stay with me forever
At least for the night (the night)
Even when you leave me
Lead me to the light

You are my desire, oh
And just the thought of you is keeping me awake
You take me higher, oh
Take me away
You are my desire, oh
And just the thought of you is keeping me awake
You take me higher, oh
Take me away

✨✨✨

Last night I was dreaming
I was locked in a prison cell
When I woke up I was screaming
Calling out your name

Whoa and the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me
They wouldn't go for my story
They wouldn't hear my plea

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused of love in the first degree
Guilty
Of love in the first degree

Someday I believe it
You will come to my rescue
Unchain my heart you're keeping
And let me start anew, ooh
The hours pass so slowly
Since they've thrown away the key
Can't you see that I'm lonely
Won't you help me please

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused of love in the first degree
Guilty
Of love in the first degree

Guilty of love, guilty of love in
Guilty of love, guilty of love in
Guilty,
Of love in the first degree

Whoa and the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me
They wouldn't go for my story
They wouldn't hear my plea

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused of love in the first degree
Guilty
Of love in the first degree

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused of love in the first degree
Guilty
Of love in the first degree

Only you can set me free
'Cause I'm guilty
Guilty as a girl can be
Come on baby can't you see
I stand accused of love in the first degree
Guilty
Of love in the first degree

I've always enjoyed the lyrics and all the metaphors in Love In The First Degree, especially the bridge:

And the judge and the jury
They all put the blame on me
They wouldn't go for my story
They wouldn't hear my plea

There's quite a lot under the surface there, like a lot of SAW stuff is beneath the exterior.

100% agree, Love in the first degree was not the song choice to choose to make that point at all. It's a fun hearted pop bop but some of those lyrics are great.

Yeah I’m not sure I’m a lyric guy. It can definitely HELP, but it’s not what is most important to me.

‘Babycakes’ is literally a BANGER!

‘My Neck, My Back’ is a BANGER!

Etc.. as long as the melody is there first and foremost, it’s likely to have my full undivided attention!

I think lyrics can especially help a ballad moreso than an uptempo tho.

Anyway this is a conversation for a different thread!

Those are definitely the ‘better’ lyrics but still quite cheesy and I wanted to represent groups as well :’)

Swedish cheese >>> English cheese.

The implication that the lyrics of 'My Neck, My Back' aren't Pulitzer Prize worthy art x

(I tend to not really pay attention to lyrics at all most of the time oop, there is the occasional song that I really enjoy for great lyrics or think is ruined by especially dreadful lyrics, but about 98% of the time the lyrics kinda wash over me and I judge more on the sound and ~vibes~)

I don't see why really, when it's literally about the songs in this thread? 🤔 Well not My neck, my back tbf 🤣

The beauty of the boards is we all have our (wrong 🤭) opinions, this contest would be boooring if we all thought the same.

Completely agree with this, I get the point which was trying to be made but 'Love In The First Degree' definitely was not a song to try and make it with. The other two were definitely lyrically weak.

I don't care that Darin was singing about soft pillows, the song was a banger and I'm looking forward to the next one! (I'll just make sure not to bother translating it if it's in Swedish kink)
