[ESC United Mod Team]

I think people are just excited because it's Loreen. The song was bang average from what has been shown. The longer clip delivered nothing more.

 

[Geborgenheit]

God kveld. I hope the show will be awesome.

 

[theditz83]

Honestly, Melodifestivalen audiences and their love for balloons almost makes me giggle

Where Did You Go isn't really a song, but something I randomly hum while I clean or smth

But Kiana slayed

 

[Stargazer]

Kiana's song wasn't for me, but I really enjoy Signe & Hjördis. Their vocals are a bit shaky sadly, but the song is lovely.

 

[theditz83]

Kiana's song and performance was good, but song and artist are probably a bit more suited to JESC.

Edelweiss' chorus is totally reminding me of the synth hook from Avicii's "Hey Brother" (melodically) - it's bonkers...

 

[FilipFromSweden]

wow Edelweiss, I haven’t heard something that authentic and original in Melfest in years! If not Loreen I hope we choose them

 

[TB98]

For some reason the chorus of "Edelweiss" reminded me of "Doube Me" by Mylène and Rosanne.

 

[FilipFromSweden]

Similar dance moves, similar flying hair,

Hair movement. What are you gonna complain about next? That she blinks?

 

[Geborgenheit]

First "twins", now "Smash". Feels like Sweden copies Russia.

 

[Stargazer]

Knowing how amazing Swedish hard rock and metal can be, this sounds quite lukewarm, corporate and Americanized. It's not bad, but a bit plastic.

 

[TB98]

3 songs in and this semi-final is already better than the previous 3 put together.

Maybe, but it's still one of the best options. I actually think it's my favourite song of MelFest this year

 

[empo21]

I think Kiana can snatch a DTF spot tonigth. Am I delulu?

SVT saved all the prop money for Heat 4. Kiana's glow sticks, the panels used for SIP, Loreen's LED blocks...

It totally sounds like a mix between the rock songs from MF of the late 00s/early 10s but if a Linkin Park cover band performed them... I don't mind it for that reason, cos it has a nice melody, but yeah - it's a little manufactured-sounding

 

[Kairit]

It was fun otherwise, but I thought the melody of the chorus of Six Feet Under was absolutely cheesy and abysmal really, lets the song down honestly.

 

[Geborgenheit]

3 songs in and this semi-final is already better than the previous 3 put together.

No, justice for Laurell!

 

[slaviyolin]

Honestly, that's the fist time I'm watching Melfest. It's pretty fun and all but what's with the kid's bop vibe of the audience

 

[Gwendal]

Mariette's "One Day" definitely sounds like a Jessica Andersson's "Horizon" on steroids. I'd like her to DTF with this!

 

[Stargazer]

Mariette is actually quite decent. I usually don't like her entries, but this one is OK.
