I don't even understand what is happening here. Is this last year's Swedish entry?

Right so what happens next? Is it a Swedish phone vote?

Not enjoying the lack of Alcazar love.

I love living in the UK. We are amazing.

No points for Alcazar!!! Jesus Christ.

These scores are not what I expected so far! C'mon Alcazar!

Oh this is very exciting. I can't believe I'm a Melodifestivalen virgin!!

Ok fair enough. Yeah, those vocals...... :huh:

Post of the week.

I just died. Perrelli!! ABBA!!

Seriously?? Good grief.

Sigh. Literally any ABBA single could have won this ten times over.

I just don't get this. It's vile. She can't sing to save her life. This is going to win by a mile isn't it?

Wtf?? This is utterly bizarre.

This is by far the best vocal/song combo. Seeing as Alcazar don't have a look in, I'd be happy if she won.

I am so confused by what I'm looking at. He looks like an anime character.

Why the hell was Des'ree's Life playing as Helena came out? How utterly random. But amazing. Can't say I'm fussed about Survivor. Which is disappointing.

Good god this is awful. What the hell is this?

Wow some really bad vocals tonight. Actually, some really shit songs. Not what I want from Sweden at all.

Alcazar were outstanding. It'll obviously not win but my god that song is wonderful.

Good grief this is utterly naff. It's like something out of Grease 2, but much less amazing than that. Jesus wept.

Ooooh this is my first Melodifestivalen!! I'm so excited!! I actively rescheduled plans and explained (lied) to my pals that I couldn't visit them tonight. I've only listened to a handful of the songs so far. I appear to be in the minority but I actually ADORE Alcazar's song! I friggin hate Ace's song. This first one is bloody terrible too.

I'm certainly intrigued. It seems like they're taking it seriously and genuinely want to send the best singer/song combination they could get.

Completely agree. What a tit his PR rep is. "Career suicide"?? Is she having a laugh? He's hardly riding high on a wave of commercial success is he? Jesus christ, I'd wager that most of the more successful Eurovision entrants from most countries have outsold anything he's released in the UK. She's bloody delusional.

Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of all of his movies, but there is usually something in each of them that is so inspired and totally Tarantino, that you've got to respect him just a little. That said, Kill Bill 1 and 2 are utter masterpieces in my opinion. One thing that you can't deny is his enthusiasm. If you've ever seen an interview with him or heard any of his commentaries, it's immediately obvious how much he puts into his creations. He lives and breathes movies and has a vast knowledge of Japanese martial arts movies and culture amongst numerous other genres. He's completely unique and a marmite character if ever there was one, but I could never deny his total love for what he does. He is also incredibly loyal and respectful of the people he works with, from the actors to the musicians and the production crew. Hearing him talk about certain people, like Uma for example, is lovely. He knows that his actors and his crew are his right hand and he never takes away from what they add to what he does.
