SWEDEN 2012 - Loreen - Euphoria

[wittgenstein]

Congratulations to Loreen! It was an almost perfect performance, she really deserved this. And the fact that 41 out of 42 to countries awarded her proves this right. What I understand she was also the only performer who highlighted the democratic (un-democratic) situation in Azerbaijan and that also makes her the moral-winner. She's a great role-model!

 

[Sean]

I knew something big was gonna happen when we actually ranked Loreen over Jedward this year - #10 in the charts for a non-British non-Irish Eurovision entry is incredible so you guys should be proud

 

[wittgenstein]

Well deserved winner, congratulations!! She looked like she was on CRACK though, is that a norm in Sweden? JUST SAYIN'

I think its her meditation/yoga persona which makes her really cool and slow. It's not a swedish thing...

 

[MyHeartIsYours]

Congratulations Sweden, you so deserve it. Awesome track, the song of Europe 2012!!

 

[KeucFan]

I'm just so happy for her Eventhough almost all my faves had so many worse placings, this clearly makes up for it

I was screaming of happiness everytime she got 10 or 12 points

 

[Sabrewulf238]

When we were watching this my mum said that it would be nothing without the staging and choreography..

and although I do like the song I'd definitely agree that it relies a lot on the choreography....probably more than it should.

I'm still happy it won though, especially because Sweden should make awesome hosts next year.

Congratulations Sweden, you so deserve it. Awesome track, the song of Europe 2012!!

It's a testament to how fenomenal Loreen was that she was able to transcend diaspora and neighbour voting to get 12-pointers from countries that often don't even give Sweden any points whatsoever.

Unexpected 12-pointer steals:
* Russia
* Slovakia

Things may change as time goes on - some neighbour votes are probably inevitably as is cultural preferences, but the political/nationalistic votes may finally be possible to drop .

 

[MyHeartIsYours]

Actually I believe it's at #4 now in the UK... those who have just woken up from the Eurovision parties must be on iTunes

Previous winners I have bought Alexander Rybak and Lena, but this is the first Swedish entry I have bought .
I dont remember any getting to #5 in the UK, it's incredibly impressive, I really, really think Euphoria is gunna be a massive summer hit in the United Kingdom! Some of my friends who dont even watch or know anything about Eurovision are listening to Euphoria!
Also she's beating the likes of The Wanted, Rita Ora, etc!

 

[LalehForWD]

On Spotify (streaming tunes) it seems that the acoustic versions are the most popular ones.
For example: My heart is refusing me - acoustic version

Gaaah I climbing on the walls, my chest cramps and tears pouring out of eyes - Loreen's best ever ?

[Quent91]

I bought the official CD on last Thursday and the Swedish song already is the most played tune from this year's Eurovision in my WMP playlist
