Sweden SWEDEN 2019 - John Lundvik - Too Late for Love

[SaladBreak]

A billion times better than last year! But still nothing special.

Thats true, but its no shame to be worse than Heroes, IIWS, ICGO and DYO.

Hero and You are the only two Swedish entries of modern times that have lasted for me, and the only ones I loved seeing at the contest really.

Seeing Sanna and then Benjamin in the thread reminds me how bad Sweden has gotten in the last few years. Undo still the best Swedish entry since Loreen...

It was very strong Melodifestiwalen but the best entries weren't achieved the final (except Lisa Ajax). As a result we have 5-th male entry in a row and I don't like this discriminatory trend However the song itself isn't bad and will be one of the best in this extremely weak terrible ESC season.

Completely agree!! All others trash, including Mans

That BENJI pic is legendary aleady.

I don't know what was funnier this weekend, seeing Oto from Georgia as Cher or that Benji pic. Died multiple times at both 3

undo sucks and heroes is incredible lol thank you next

 

[Preuss]

Did he use pre-recorded vocals?
i'm dissapointed if they did as I always thought that those amazing women sang

Undo is legendary + iconic and the best Swedish Eurovision entry of the 00+10s, and anyone that says otherwise is saying otherwise, so I from this day forth do not like them and will be pressing charges against each and every single one of the misguided children later today. Still time to undo yourselves though and buy a taste. I got mine from some man wearing an OGAE t-shirt. Highly recommended.

I wish Undo could be undone. Pandering at Celine Dion and Lena as selling proposition was lazy and lame. Please hate me now!

What about your own entry?

No he didn’t use that

As I wrote some pages ago, the hate would be here despite whoever we send, this fanforum is so predictable

 

[RainyWoods]

What about your own entry?

The "joint best" entry I obviously meant to say. Sanna and Charlotte, an unbeatable team.

 

[BorisBubbles]

Lol, this is a woeful decade for Sweden imo and Lundvik is easily their third best entrant in recent memory, after the two winners. It's not even close. You Swedes really need to come to terms that not everyone likes your entries, hence why you're occasionally flopping in the televote. Be happy you're still scoring well in spite of it. Most countries would commit crimes to be in your position.

You know what? I'll even throw in an impromptu ranking that I'm sure will upset at least 78% of you, but ain't nothing stopping me- GET FRIGHTEN!!!

1. Mans Zelmerlöw - "Heroes"
2. Loreen - "Euphoria"
3. John Lundvik - "Too Late for love"
4. Benjamin Ingrosso - "Dance You off"
5. Robin Stjernberg - "You"
6. Sanna Nielsen - "Undo"
7. Eric Saade - "Popular"
8. Anna Bergendahl - "This is my life"
9. Robin Bengtsson - "I can't go on"
10. Frans - "If I were sorry"

^ *THAT* is the state of Sweden in this Eurovision decade according to yours truly. A steaming, overrated pile of generic-sounding rubbish that is often unfairly thrusted into the top 5 because it ticks all the boxes of What Music Is Supposed To Sound Like, Don't You Dare To Be Critical, without having any actual sincerity, warmth or funfactor. Just because it's Sweden, doesn't mean I'm obliged by contract to automatically like anything they fart in my general direction. And before any of your dares to come for me, let me remind you that I am far from the only person who feels that way, btw. Many people do.

However, I am willing to ~forgive the past~ and look at the present and future; While Swedish entries are ROBOTIC in general, praise fucking HALLELLUJAH they're actually trying to have fun this year. I am here for it. Therefore, I will NOT be having all this ridiculous defensiveness from the Swedes and the fiery anti-Sweden sentiments from Sweden haters (honestly, get a life), now that Sweden have actually selected an entry which DESERVED to win Melfest and would DESERVE a top 10 finish in Tel Aviv. Too Late For Love is BETTER THAN MOST SWEDISH ENTRIES. Deal with it.

One short sentence and you said it all. Amen!

oh yeah about Undo: The song is absolute utter rubbish, it has one of the worst hooks ever in a song ('Undo my sad' wtf am I watching Dziesma -- me in 2014) and was carried to third solely by its flag and a lack of self-respect by its fans, but it does have one AMAZING saving grace in Miss Sanna Nielsen, whom I found quite enjoyable in her backstage vids.

Awkward giraffe person who tried vainly to infiltrate into Conchita/Ruth/Suzy's bitch coven and was reduced to a mere foot soldier in Queen Conchita's unstoppable army

Performing fellatio on inflatable pool matresses

Praise the Eurogods she fucking lost so I can enjoy her ironically.
