Sweden SWEDEN 2023 - Loreen - Tattoo

[ESC United Mod Team]

Couldn’t they think of something instead of “you-oo-oo” and “tatt-oo-oo”? It’s annoying and I think the whole song itself is underwhelming (no not being a Loreen hater).

Someone is getting fired for that leaking.

[Mrm]

I still have trouble processing this tragedy

Having said that, i'm still not sure loreen has this in the bag, i would love her to win this but i have this feeling it might be m&m...
A friend of mine said: "the entire europe wants to send loreen. Except for sweden" and i'm afraid he could be right

I don't want to see Loreen in Liverpool and I'm not from Sweden lmao

I hope Loreen wins MF because she is the one of the very few this year probably who can win Eurovision and deny the charity award for a second year in a row to Ukraine.

This is from the dress rehearsal. You can't fire the audience and obviously you can't check everybody's phones.

God those nails really are horrendous

Yes, but I certainly hope that‘s not the one minute detail people in Sweden focus on and therefore refuse to vote for her.

 

[midnightsun]

I‘ve been listening to Smash into pieces for some years now and some of their songs are in my "all time favourites"-list but Six feet under is totally underwhelming.

Favourite: Mariette!

What's with the hate for the nails?
From what we can see the choreography heavily relies on hand movement and "elongating" the hands is a smart choice and gives every flick of a writs a more dramatic flare.

i'm not impressed from the whole song - average solid popsong sung by a premium singer with cultstatus - not more.
melowinner: yes
ESC 2023 winner: no

 

[Franzilein]

I really couldn't care less about Loreen, SIP stole my heart, been repeating the freaking snippet of Six Feet Under an unhealthy amount of times. Really wish for some catchy rock tunes at the ESC after Estonia didn't want to send Ollie (), please don't hurt me as well Sweden. I want to give you my 12 points!

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

That ending is massive, it gave me goosebumps.

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

Y'all need to relax a little, Loreen is not a set deal. Swedes tend to vote for back stories lately and not songs, so Maria Sur will probably win the televote at least.

Of course nothing is certain in the national final that Dotter lost to Mamas and Saade to Tusse. But if Loreen has to lose to someone, let it be M&M, who have an enjoyable, modern song and performance.
Imagine having Air and Tattoo in your national final and deciding to send Never give up.

100% agree - I’m not wowed. It’s the same formula as Euphoria but the song is average and I don’t like the lyrics either.

Loreen's "Tattoo" sounds good enough to me, I really love Cazzi Opeia and the way she writes with melody (which shows well in this song).

However, this is one of the rare cases where I found the staging were much, much bigger than the actual song. Rather than being captivating, it sort of intimidates me.

Wait until Ikke is coming!

this has worked already very nice for slomo last year.

 

[kjelle]

The whole song feels like a build-up, like "soon the climax comes", but it never does. In the end of the leaked video it seems like the song becomes slightly more interesting, but still not that exciting. I honestly might vote for Max & Martinus in the final instead, but we'll see about that.

I love Euphoria as much as the next guy, but I don't vote for nostalgia. Except for Nordman.

Smash into Pieces seems great though. They will receive 5 hearts from me.

 

[Fierro]

Loreen and the staging elevates the song. It indeed looks epic and breathtaking but not aligned unfortunately with the quality of the song itself (that is typical outdated Swedish pop ballad, some parts of which I already heard like multiple times somewhere).

But I enjoy this much more than Euphoria, that i hated from the beginning
