Sweden SWEDEN 2023 - Loreen - Tattoo

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[Leydan]

I hope no one who was involved in Elena Nacheyevas plummit to the floor in Eesti Laul is working on MF this year.

 

[Ezio]

There is no 100% guarantee that Loreen or anyone else survives their performance. They could get electrocuted on stage in any case. Labour is cheap these days. A tsunami could hit the arena or an earthquake, Russians could strike or ISIS and last not least, a LED barbecue grill could overheat and starting grilling for reals.

When 150 million people watch at home, some of them die while watching, and no one worries about them.

Georgia 2016 must have killed at least 10 people.

LOREEN
A scenic designer's dream, honestly

Sweden now is the favourite to win Eurovision according to the odds.
Please Swedes don't mess it up

Really, that has to be the weakest bunch of songs in any modern edition of Melodifestivalen. There's really not much to talk about at all in this heat. Smash Into Pieces really disappointed me, like a blend of every previous MF-metal act with nothing distinctive, maybe it will come across slightly better live.

I remember somebody mentioned about a budget cut for Melodifestivalen this year, but I don't know to what extent is this true. However, I quickly searched and found out there were supposedly 2824 songs being submitted this year. Feels more like laziness on SVT's part than anything.

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

I mean, Sweden found a song that took Ukraine down on the odds. I dont call that weak

 

[Loindici]

Reading the credits on "Tattoo", I felt strongly that Cazzi Opeia gave her Midas Touch on that prechorus and yoo-hoo-hoo part. There might be more parts that she has touched on the song, but we'll see.

 

[randajad]

The bar is under the floor.

 

[FilipFromSweden]

Sweden surpassing Ukraine in the odds and is now #1 oh my goddddd

2012 flashbacks. I haven’t heard the song yet though, I want a fresh mind for Saturday

 

[FilipFromSweden]

The start of Tattoo is the same as:

ABBA - The Winner Takes it All

It’s bad taste that the fan press are ignoring all the other entries.

Oh give me a fucking break. It’s Loreen. You can’t blame someone for not faking interest in others

 

[alca]

I mean it's hard to predict now since there's age groups, but I can totally see people in the 16-29 and 30-44 group going bananas for this. The younger groups might go for Marcus & Martinus and Theoz (eventually), the older a tossup between Maria Sur and Loreen me thinks. But this should be between Loreen and M&M.

I think Maria Sur is out of the picture by now...

 

[Semra]

Tattoo better go somewhere because the snippet has 1/2 the lyrics in it already with 2 minutes left. I feel many drops and a lot of you-oo-oo's to fill the time.

No, please no more you-oo-ooo's! I'm already having troubles overcoming the cringe of that. I wonder why she put that in there (I expect a lot from her, I know, which is a compliment really).

 

[A-lister]

With lack of time and the fact that this year's MF is dreadful, like REALLY dreadful, I'm out of the loop and haven't seen any of the semis live for the first time in like forever... not just are the songs bad (which has been the case for MF for years now, with this being an extremely bad year), but the production, staging, the hosting (although I like them, somehow they don't work well together and the script is bad) and the interval shows are also messy (being that MF at least was a well produced show I'm shocked that it's also lacking in that department now... )

So I really hope Loreen brings it... Maria Sur would be another Tusse (the back story selling a mediocre song) but knowing Swedes they prefer that...

 

[njdevils94]

Momentum.

Is a Polish NF song Ylva & linda wrote yes.

 

[AlekS]

Emoshens , drama, the staging is nothing innovative for me but it looks miles better than Statements, average song but she sells it with her performance Probably my first this season.
My only concern is those bloody twinks.

 

[I bims]

I think Maria Sur is out of the picture by now...

Yeah people really need to get over her. It's between M&M and Loreen... But Loreen came to KILL.

[MopManMoss]

Can we wait to see if she wins melfest before we speculate on Loreen’s world domination

 

[esc87fan]

I can't imagine the potential meltdown if Loreen doesn't win, just like what happened when she lost her Andra Chansen duel in 2017 to Anton Hagman
