Sweden SWEDEN 2024 - Marcus & Martinus - Unforgettable

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[Sammy]

They seperated 20 Years ago. They just reunited for Melfest temporarily.

as I said - groundbreaking!

 

[Mainshow]

To be fair, A*Teens were the most interesting part of heat 1 - let's hope for more/bigger highlights this Saturday!

The ABBA tribute in May is inevitable this year anyway.
They better ask them to "re-unite" once more.

 

[Chalphon]

as I said - groundbreaking!

They were'nt trying to be groundbreaking. They reunited for one night only to celebrate their 25th anniversary. Considering the fact people had been travelling from South America and Asia to see it live in Malmö indicates they are missed by their fans. But haters gonna hate I guess...

I was being sarcastic because of a post. „Groundbreaking“ was thus directed in the first place to that post.
on a side note: this „haters gonna blablabla“ phrase is so dated and boring. we should really get rid of it.

Lisa Ajax is in with something really good this year, a very slick but vulnerable vibe to it

its the flattest try of hers for me

 

[MAD20]

This evening I watched the performances and meh... Nothing going on here so far. Maybe SVT are keeping the sweet spots to a banger as they did last year with Loreen

 

[Ringdalen]

So Sweden is sending A*Teens right?

 

[theditz83]

Yeah, I don't get it either. It's not a great song at all

 

[Realest]

Im pretty hyped after ESCfuns Comments about the next Songs.

[AlekS]

I know that's gonna happen but pls... ask A*Teens instead Oo

This would slayed MF to ss. I gag at the amount of Swedes in the comment section


Jokes aside, SVT has published 1 minute snippets. I'm kinda interested in Maria's song, but imho she doesn't have enough charisma to pull this Loreen reject off live. I wasn't impressed by LIA-Meh

Heat 2: Originality has left the chat

With 5 heats the production faves are spread even thinner, so it becomes even easier to predict how the results will go.

Maria Sur's entry is giving me heavy Ellen Bennedickson "Insomnia"

Liamoo just grabbed an Imagine Dragons demo

I was excited for Fröken but that snippet idk

C-Joe isn't bad so I hope he at least makes the not-second-chance second chance round

 

[Realest]

Maria Sur is the big One here.

Btw. since noone posted the Link:

Fröken Snusk, let's go

I expected something like this from Lia Larsson. Imagine if i get two of those northern country party schlagers

 

[mauve]

Really Sweden? This is as worse as heat 1! Holy moly ... it is the first time I couldn't even finish listening to the snippets.

 

[Paco Roca]

For me this year Sweden, already qualified by right to the final, will try to bring a solid song without infamy and without praise to enter the Top 15. I don't expect competitiveness from them for the victory. I'm just expecting a good show and a tribute to ABBA.

Probably like the other two times Malmö was the host city and Sweden did relatively poor with vanilla songs including one by the devil himself.

Very disappointing second heat. Not a single memorable song let alone a good one. The winner HAS to be in a later semi…

I mean it's quite obvious (it was since the beginning) that it's between Danny, Dotter and maybe MandM

well some suggested LIAMO to take part in that battle too. Or Smash into pieces… and look what we‘ve got so far.

 

[Mainshow]

The only song I feel slightly excited about is Maria's entry. The built-up is quite nice and it's so much better than the dreadful ballad she competed with last year.

That said, the overall quality of this heat is even worse than heat 1 (based on the snippets).

I know that usually have 3-5 very competitive entries each year but so far we haven't heard them.

The lack of originality is really frustrating.
just won and are already part of the final - they could have gone completely nuts, artsy-fartsy, progressiv, heavy, cheesy Schlager-y to the core but we all get radio-friendly and generic Jimmy Joker songs at best (+ that one chanceless song in Swedish).

I'm utterly disappointed - again.
