Sweden SWEDEN 2022 - Cornelia Jakobs - Hold Me Closer

[escYOUnited]

No need to apologize
'Cause there’s nothing to regret
Well, this is not what I wanted
Guess all the good things come to an end

So baby bye, bye
Wish you the best
But most of alI I wish that I could love you less
Well, maybe you're right
I'll find someone else
You say it isn't me, but when did that ever help?

Hold me closer
Although you'll leave before the sunrise
I'll be bleeding, but don't you mind, I'll be fine
Oh, it kills me
I found the right one at the wrong time
But until the sunrise
Hold tight, hold tight

Maybe it happened too fast
I guess that I understand
You say that you've never felt this way for anyone
And that's why it scares you to death

So baby bye, bye
Know it's for the best
Still I can't see how that would ease the pain in my chest

Hold me closer
Although you'll leave before the sunrise
I'll be bleeding, but don't you, mind I'll be fine
Oh, it kills me
I found the right one at the wrong time
But until the sunrise
Could you just hold me tight?
I know, I have to let go, but just give me the night

'Cause tomorrow will hurt
Hurt really bad
'Cause I’m about to lose the best I ever had

Hold me closer
Although you'll leave before the sunrise
I'll be bleeding, but don't you mind, I'll be fine
Oh, it kills me
I found the right one at the wrong time
But until the sunrise
Could you just hold me tight?
I know, I have to let go, but just give me the night (Hold me tight, hold me tight)

Can't you see that you found the right one at the wrong time?
It was just the wrong time
Hold tight, hold tight

I suppose the line-up will be quite different from that list… It seems a bit like desperate news searching

 

[A-lister]

Jesus christ, don't these artists have any career outside of melfest??

Nope and that's not even sarcastically meant, most acts in MF survive solely on MF while the Swedish music scene is moving on without them, so I guess the MF tragedy will continue... the long overdo and much needed revamp of the contest will probably never see the light of day with or without Björkman onboard.

🇸🇪 Sweden: SVT Planning Tour For Melodifestivalen 2022 - Eurovoix

Karin Gunnarson Producer of Melodifestivalen has stated that they are planning to tour Sweden as part of Melodifestivalen 2022.

So the contest format seemingly remains in place! Given that, I wonder if P4 Nästa being ditched is the only major change we'll see.

1973... 1974...2022... ABBA in Melodifestivalen I'm calling it! If anyone thinks I'm wrong then I challenge you to a duel

1973... 1974...2022... ABBA in Melodifestivalen I'm calling it! If anyone thinks I'm wrong then I challenge you to a duel

They released the new songs just after 1. 9. That can't be a coincidence

So send them straight to Eurovision, it's time to come full circle

Nah, so much I like Abba's music, it is time to Sweden send Sabaton or Amaranthe to Eurovision.

ABBA should go first, but I would be absolutely delighted with these two as well And with Nightwish sent by you guys - a man can always dream.

Yep. But Tuomas Holopainen isn't interesting to go to Eurovision. In 2000 they applied to our national finals as a statement with their song "Sleepwalker". Finnish people would have sent them, but our juries didn't think, that kind of music would success in Eurovision. So Nina Åström won.

Are holograms allowed on stage or it should be people?

ABBA should be allowed everything tho

He's kinda an idiot (like most Swedish celebs), but I think as far as hosting goes he did good in 2021 so I don't mind this tbh...

lol, why would u say that haha? I kinda like him

 

[A-lister]

lol, why would u say that haha? I kinda like him

I can't find the quote now but he tweeted / said some pretty dumb stuff regarding the Covid virus for instance...

But fair enough, I do think he is quite entertaining and he clearly proved that he can host so... I don't expect celebrities to say intelligent stuff (in fact I kinda expect them not to so).

So according to the project manager there are going to be parts of Melfest that are revamped after all, to be presented at a later date!

A 10 % change of the contest? What ever that means. Still interesting. The changes aren't finished enough to be presented to the public. It would be fun with a big surprise of some kind.

See the "changes" being use of another intro song and that's it

 

[DanielLuis]

Maybe they'll change up the AC format. At most, they'll eliminate the second round of voting at the semi-finals (which is pretty much completely useless with the current age group voting format). Don't see them changing up anything bigger than that.

Hello Swedish böys and görld, what's up? All ok in the land of mooses and knuckles?

Yesterday, I watch the rerder Eurovision board video 1967, and I have to say, that Sweden was one of my favourite entries. Som en dröm! I couldn't believe it. Really nice song.

My 1967 Top 3 are:



Hope to see the singer again one day at Eurovision.
