Sweden SWEDEN 2023 - Loreen - Tattoo

The Eurovision fandom has become more toxic in general and it has come to the point were sometimes it's really not fun to follow Eurovision anymore imo. This forum is good and stays mostly civil but sites like reddit or twitter are terrible. Reddit has been a Käärjä echo chamber for months which is the reason why I stopped going to that subreddit. Last year they couldn't stop obsessing over the broken sun. It even got to the point that people attacked the stage designer on FB. I guess it's maybe because there are many teenagers on these social media sites. I'm also not always happy with the result. Latvia should've qualified, Eleni and Sam were my winners but it is what it is. There are really worse things in life. I don't understand this obsession with negativity. As I always say Eurovision is more than just who wins and who loses. It's the show itself and the values that make me watch the show every year. Latvia hasn't qualified but they have many new fans and I can't wait to buy their next album. In a way they won. Loreen deserved it like everyone else. She also worked hard to give us that performance.

Agree with everything!

"Tattoo" is holding up really well in the UK charts, it's not just because of Eurovision. Usually Eurovision songs start off big then fall away quickly but not with "Tattoo".

Loreen deserves more respect. I believe over time people will appreciate her brilliance and success.

Loreen’s win in Liverpool was well deserved, but I just watched ‘Euphoria’ - the ‘thank you Baku’ version - and I have to say: That performance was better than ‘Tattoo’ in many ways. She hit the notes cleaner, and the voice was more dynamic. I even liked the staging more.

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

Still over the moon that the stars aligned and she won the whole thing. Every year I have a favourite ( De diepte last year for example ) but I've never been that invested in an esc entry before, if she hadnt have won I feel like I would have been feeling dissapointed for many eurovision eras to come

Good to see that she is doing some promo for the song. She performed on Moma (morning show in Germany). Beautiful performance

Btw. Tattoo has officialy reached 100 mio. streams on Spotify. It also spends a second week in the Top 5 of UKs charts at #4!

Just watched all MF-Finalists + a few Nonqualifiers.
I wish could divide into a few Regions and send more Entries (Marcus + Martinus, Kiana, Maria Sur, Melanie Wehbe, Wiktoria, JHF..)

 

[Realest]

This is so impressive

with a plagiarized song

It doesnt take plagiarism to win over a novelty entry

Is Loreen anti-Ukrainian?

That article seems shady as hell, I don't think there's any reason to start spreading rumours like that because of an article that reads like it was translated by Bing...

Yes, let's hear both sides of the story. No one has an obligation to take part in charity events that are forced on them. Famous artists often have charities that they already support throughout the year. The article sounds dodgy.

First of all I found the news in other sources, not in English, and just searched for the first article in English. This is definitely not a rumour. And it is not "just one article".

But it shows the attitude. Personally, I haven't been a big fan of her, but after this, I will probably not listen to her songs anymore.

 

[aeon]

After what happened this year and being made aware of the songs that Tattoo was copied from left me disliking her as well.

However let's hear her side on this signature/charity refusal story she is accused of in that article. It could be fabricated.

Hopefully she says something.

 

[Preuss]

I think this got a pretty high televore score all things considered. Imagine if the performance was anywhere near as good as in Melfest, Loreen would've been significantly closer to Finland in the televote score in the end

 

[Iker]

Lets check this fun fact

Oh turns out you're wrong, remember Euphoria?

LOL at 224 points for Yodel It!

Easily the worst song out of this bunch, it was freaking awful. So corny. But I guess it appealed a lot to children, Romanian diaspora and adults with a severe lack of taste in music.
