SCARLET didn't won they semi, so i lost my last hope, that Mans didn't win Mello. It will be Mans for 100%! It's a good song, but it is nothing new, it's like new version of Heroes.
This Mello was totally unnecessary, so many weak songs to make everything easier for Mans to win.

Sauna as the closing act!

(I am afraid this is giving me hope. Three finnish men and their love for Sauna will make me watch Melodifestivalen. Unbelieveable lol)

Whos your top 3 in the final after who you prefer and who you think will place top 3?

Mans is trending in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland!
KAJ only in Sweden and Finland.

Mans is by far better choice for Sweden, for both jury and televoting in Basel..

One thing that will get Bara bada bastu more votes is if the lovely Arja takes part in the sauna. She sang Högt över havet in the swedish contest 1987.

Dolly Style MADE IT

Bara bada bastu is growing on me but i still prefer Klara. KAJ is probably number 2 on my list now.

Interesting list i think youve put plastic on top and genuinity on the bottom but I do enjoy Dolly Styles charisma and energy its a great show. But why is Klara so low?

I fail too see that genuinity of KAJ since the beginning tbh...it is just irritating and full of gimmicks to me...
Dolly Style are my biggest MF guilty pleasures ever, in all their 4 attempts!
I don't agree as well that Scarlet is a "plastic" act! They are genuine to me more than KAJ, especially in recent MF terms...
I never liked Klara, she seems "fake' to me and as a typical MF product, I don't "believe" her while she performs and I find her to be quite weak singer..

I feel a bit ashamed now to put Meira Omar in front of Mans Zelmerlow (it is quite silly and inappropriate I know), but I'm sure he is a huuuuge gentleman and will forgive me for this.... I love Arash stuff way too much and feels very nostalgic having this tune in a MF nowdays...

a new member has joined the revolution army.

but the crazy sauna army is more sexy.

I think votes for a funny song will in the Eurovision final go to Estonia. The sauna song with KAJ is neither funny enough nor good enough to win Eurovision

i think sometimes it is more important to make the people happy and give some fun in these darker times.
the sauna boys would be a statement in this from sweden.

p.s. in german we say "der weg ist das ziel" (means the way is the goal 1:1) and this is not a bad slogan or not?

Whats your view on Måns? I feel the text is much hoopla about nothing a revolution song for people without opinions as someone said. If your`e talking about revolution you should atleast be brave enough to mention something you want to change. But the song builds up cleverly to the chorus although a bit of a what we in Sweden call a pratsong/speachsong with more speach then singing in the beginning before the howling begins.

I probably agree with what you said, but we have to take the staging, outfit and vocals in the consideration as well, and I find all of these 3 on point! can't wait to experience it live in The Arena on Saturday! And Scarlet, of course...

Your right it does bring happiness.

Hmm, hmmm just stop lobbying for sauna horror, thank you so very much.....

I hope you have a good time. If you want a good sight of Stockholm you should go to Mosebacke on Södermalm where a nice view of Stockholm can be seen from the hill perspective. Although the restaurant may not be open in the winter.

are you afraid about what is coming?

I kind of want KAJ to win just to send a fun song for once, or maybe "Believe Me", even though I don't think either of them are amazing songs or anything. I just had fun watching and listening to their performances.

I don't want Måns to win but obviously he will win. I don't know why people are even speculating, it's so obvious he will win it's not even funny. Måns was predicted as the winner before anyone even heard the song. As long as the song isn't shit he will win with anything if the stage is flashy. I think his song is okayish.

As for the song I personally liked the most it's probably "Hush Hush", it feels very early 2000s Turkey ESC to me. But I don't see it having any chances of winning hence why I'm rooting for the other two above.
