I talk about today's videos .

I talk about today's videos .

And I showed you how he is charting on Itunes, you know, where you have to buy the song for it to climb on the list

And since he connects with the viewers better than Benjamin, I highly doubt he will flop in the televote (which means getting fewer than 60p)

John was really excellent but not a winner lol. I'd go on by pointing out by saying he was better in Melfest but I don't want to accidentally trigger Pawhlen into thinking I am anti-Sweden despite saying the opposite less than 40 words ago, so i'll leave it at that.

just be rdy for being in bottom five together with my country

Sweden is obviously gonna get placed between 7-13... like usual when they draw first half. And no, I am not against Sweden. I love their entries but their is clearly bias whenever they draw their placement.

They are consistently top 3 in their semi-finals so what do you expect the producers to do lol
And I was about to write it and say that people would point about bias and favoritism towards Sweden anyway if they got a position between 7-13 lol

He got nr 9, after and before

Good draw if you ask me

Yes and he was likely top 3 in his semi so there's no crime here giving him #9

 

[Alaska49]

underwhelming and weaker than melfest and unfit for top five and the youtube views agree with me. he will probably do well though.

iTunes is bad indicator to measure a success for a song in the first 24 hours, Youtube and Spotify are way more reliable but we'll need to wait until Saturday to see how the songs from semi-final 2 did on Friday on Spotify.

You can clearly see that semi-final 1 songs didn't impress much while the hype for The Netherlands and Italy are real.

Edit: forgot to mention Spotify isn't available in many Eastern countries though.

 

[Pawhlen]

Well well, If he manages top 10 in the televote, I would be more than happy.

After yesterdays performance I'm not so sure anymore that this will win. On the other hand - neither of the other favorites really convinced me either.

They missed the effect of revealing the Mamas which made the song a winner in Melodifestivalen. Otherwise, I think the performance was flawless.

None of them are real indicators because the vast majority of people watching on Saturday will be hearing the songs for the first times and are a different audience to those watching the YouTube videos. Spotify if misleading because entries like Soldi and Arcade have had months of streaming momentum behind them.

He‘s still my number one, but he was less charismatic that he used to be, at least that was my impression.

 

[opinionsigotem]

Camerawork was significantly worse than in Melfest, otherwise a great performance with everyone on song. Sooooorta doubting its winner credentials though.

 

[Jay25]

Camerawork was kinda off-putting here

The Mama reveal in Melfest was pretty amazeballs.

John did good, not as good as in MF though, but still it was so refreshing to see a good live singer coming after some pretty bad vocals prior... I still think we have one of the better songs this year, but something felt off in the performance (although technically it's identical from MF), something with the lightning maybe? camera angles? The Mamas didn't just "appear" like they did in MF, that effect didn't work here for some reason or the camera didn't capture the moment properly... they need to fix this for the final.
