I really loved her rehearsal performance. It was just outstanding. Everything about it was perfect. She will have gotten the best score from the jury, no doubt about it. I've actually come to like the Baku performance more and that has to everything with the final act. When she throws herself down the same time as the snow starts and that long camera shot. Just beautiful. Also it just feels grander for some reason. Finally, I now understand their thought about the slow mo effect they tried in MF but looks so much better here. She reaches a moment of clarity or with a better word, Euphoria mid air! Just so cool!!

Hmm ... maybe. It will take some time for me to accept all this new :).

Excuse me, I dont need you to tell me if I've made a mistake! I will make that judgement myself, and I decide that I have not made any mistake whatsoever! I still believe Loreen isnt a good singer (and she's a 4th placed Idol contestant - then you have the cheek to criticise the UK's entries when we're sending an international legend who was friends with Elvis Presley!) And I always admit when Im wrong, but in this case Im not.
1) Who cares what place she placed on Idol eight years ago?
2) Who care if you're sending the Hump this year when you've sent trash in the past? That's like saying Sweden has an eternal free pass because we sent ABBA.
3) So you maintain that Loreen is a terrible singer (but she had a good night last night and somehow sang well), yet you also support One Direction, Tooji and Blue?

And Im saying that Im enjoying Loreen's performance yesterday, and I will no doubt tomorrow too.
Except you didn't use those words. You actually said she sang well.

Why you still being moody with me, not that you should have been in the first place anyway?
Because you adamantly claim Loreen is a bad singer (which she isn't) while hypocritically supporting "singers" like Tooji, One Direction and Blue, all of which are mediocre to terrible singers (Blue has two members who sing pretty well, the rest all suck).


By the way, regarding why Loreen performed "strangely" last night:
In her own words, she kinda had a blackout. There are two versions of the song, an acoustic one and the original version. She went on stage starting out singing the acoustic version but corrected herself midway through.

She does need to work on her diction though...!

She has been told that since Idol 2004 ;). She obviously mumbles on purpose in the acoustic version which she sang by mistake :? last night. You can imagine the panic she must have felt on stage last night and the relief when she made it :).

edit:
Sorry FallenAngelII, I didn't see your comment above xshiftyxwhistlexshrug:)

Haha! Her first rehearsal today she pronounced the first phrases almost too well just to peak. Got better in the second verse though...

Some of you seem 60+ since one of your biggest requirements is for Loreen to pronounce her lyrics more clear. o_O
That's so totally irrelevant imo.
