CAN I JOIN THE KIANA FAN CLUB?

YES, of course !
The KIANA FAN CLUB is now officially open!

Tattoo isn't really doing much for me based on the snippet.

Six Feet Under sounds like the best option, but I'm not sure if that's because it's good or because everything around it sounds so bland.

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

Tattoo sounds fantastic
Really instant, I am able to sing the song after only listening to 1 minute once.

 

[DirtyFalcon]

Well nothing special in Loreen snippet. It's fine, very Loreen style and very mello friendly but no winner vibes based on the snippet. Let's see the performance. She's a great performer so she will for sure elevate the song. Let's also see how the song is in full. But right now, without the performance, i would not put my money on her winning Eurovision if she was chosen.

The others are fine too.

I really liked the Loreen's snippet.
Good that i read your comments first here. You here are always the best at making my expectations low

 

[Semra]

Never ever would I've thought I would like M & M more than Loreen... but that's the uncomfortable situation I'm in. M & M were child stars here in Norway, something my kids enjoyed. Their song is far too mainstream mello for me, but Loreen's you-oo-ooo made me cringe a bit. I love her edgy, alternative style. The mysterious. This sounded surprisingly generic. Her voice was the only element I liked. I might change my mind Saturday night.

Kiana : Blaaah, sounded very basic but huge kudos to her for the courage she has to be there at her age !

Signe & Hjördis : How lovely is this song ?

Smash Into Pieces : Didn't expect to love this, it's amazing

Mariette : Not bad but pretty forgettable

Emil Henrohn : Bored me

Axel Schylström : Sounds pretty nice, wish chorus was stronger tho

Loreen : Am not a fan of her music at all tbh, so I definitely didn't expect her song to be in my top 3 of the heat good song !

 

[ESC_Peggy]

I definitely think the yo-ho-ho-ho-ho or whatever Loreen is doing it putting me off in the studio version.

Kiana FTW. x

You have the same favorites as me Loreen my number 3 (before the lives, of course). I love Loreen's style, but to me her song sounded too generic this year.

 

[ayzelto]

I liked Loreen snippet, but until I see the whole thing I still think M&M have more chances.

 

[hijirio]

Me tooooooo...
KIANA is The Swedish House Mafia "Don't you worry child" version 2023.
I hope for a SPECTACULAR show and more explosive beat, singing and dancing!

AND THE MANDATORY KEY CHANGE

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

I liked Loreen snippet, but until I see the whole thing I still think M&M have more chances.

If Loreen has a nice stage presentation, they will be close in the tele
I feel like Loreen can have a head start with the juries, which can define the result.
But yeah I get what you mean, M&M may appeal like a fresher choice to swedes

01 Kiana – Where Did You Go 10/10
02 Smash Into Pieces – Six Feet Under 8/10
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
03 Loreen – Tattoo 7/10
04 Emil Henrohn – Mera mera mera 7/10
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
05 Signe and Hjördis – Edelweiss 7/10
06 Axel Schylström – Gorgeous 6/10
07 Mariette – One Day 5/10

It is a good Semi together with Semi 1 the best, i'm happy to say Tattoo is better than Statements, but i think Loreen's time totally over. Love the Song from Kiana and also Smast Into Pieces deliver a good song. Mariette should give it up with this basic pop songs, good produced but totally boring.


My Prediction

Final Kiana
Final Mariette
---------------------------------------
AC Smash Into Pieces
AC Axel Schylström
----------------------------------------
5th Loreen
6th Signe and Hjördis
7th Emil Henrohn

I must have seen 1019822 "Hm. Is it me or does Tattoo sounds like The Winner Takes It All?" comments.

 

[slaviyolin]

Tattoo sounds just a tiny bit too generic of a song for me but I have a suspicion when I hear the whole song, and especially see Loreen perform it, it'll grow on me.

Yes, she already won ones, but who really cares, bottom line is Loreen will keep Loreening and elevate anything she's part of. Considering the other options, she seems to be the best offer. Hopefully Sweden doesn't pull a Statements and makes the wise decision here.

Kiana : QUEEEEEN! LOVE IT! Simply LOVE IT!

Signe & Hjördis : Could have been a pretty little song. With two blond girls. With typical Swedish old names. Singing in Swedish. A folklorish-back-to-the-roots-ting. With Swedish historical instruments…… Singing about EDELWEISS????? So cringey I want to shut the TV off.

Smash Into Pieces : AMAZINGLY GOOD! Love it!

Mariette : Pretty good. I like it a lot but I don’t love it.

Emil Henrohn : No! Simply NO! Don’t like it at all.

Axel Schylström : I like it a lot. Pretty nice song.

Loreen : Interesting… Can’t say much about it yet, but I think it will be AMAZING to say the least. I Love Loreen so much and this song wants me to hear more of it.

There is a lot of dancing. Kiana dances a lot too! She's dressed kinda like a ballerina, making a pirouette (or something similar, not sure 100% if I used the correct term. Probably not) and especially during the first verse the show looks good on TV. Those LED sticks the dancers are holding, are making a "starry" effect on screen as they move them and it looks really cool.

Kiana fanclub assemble:

"The modern pop bop gets a very cool and impressive staging. She's joined by 6 dancers that use LED bars that interact with on-screen graphics and achieve cool effects with the shutter speed. Vocally she is confident and sings the demanding song very well. Finalist, or at the very least semifinalist"'

Loreen, sis, we know you stan Ukrainian sand diva

Brace yourselves for the twink trash x2 winning this MF

i totally feel u there at the oo-ooo part. (i wouldnt say her voice is the only enjoyable thing though) but i'm excited how the song builds and i still hope its a banger
