Melodifestivalen 2019 - Deltävling 3: Låt skiten brinna

NU KÖR VI!

1. Somebody Wants - The Lovers Of Valdaro 

There was nothing wrong with this act, I liked the song and the performance was slick.

2. Habibi - Dolly Style

Ermm...nope.

3.  Låt skiten brinna - Martin Stenmarck

This was my favorite song from this semifinal and while I think Martin did a strong performance, I wish the staging was not so empty.

4. Victorious - Lina Hedlund

I love Lina and she looked amazing but I think she can do so much better, maybe she was too nervous but this performance left me a bit cold, the choreo didn't flow naturally, it looked too stiff and her vocals were off in some parts. Hopefully she will release her schlager DIVA queen in the final.

5. Om om och om igen - Omar Rudberg

Omar is a fierce performer and the song is very catchy, I really don't get his result but whatever, he should be proud of himself and I can't wait to get more music from him.

6. Who I Am - Rebecka Karlsson 

This song was too sugary for me and the staging was very dark for such an uplifting number.

7. Norrsken - Jon Henrik Fjällgren

Jon is adorable and he has such a beautiful aura but I'm not a fan of this song.

Melodifestivalen 2016 - Deltävling 4: We can do better

Time for the last semifinal of Melodifestivalen 2016!

NU KÖR VI!!!

1. Runaways - Eclipse

This song was not bad, but if you compare it with 1000 miles by H.E.A.T or Echo by Outtrigger this one is super lame.

2. Rollercoaster - Dolly Style

Oh lord! Its so sad to see people voting for this c**p. I kinda liked the idea of the performance but those new girls are not good.

3. Du tar mig tillbaks - Martin Stenmarck

Martin is such a good performer but sadly the song was boring.

4. Killer Girl - Linda Bengtzing

Oh Linda! I love her but I have to be honest, this wasnt good and Im not talking about the song cause I like the song (even if it sounds like 2 different songs together) but the performance was a bit plain, I totally missed Linda's energy on it. I dont know what they did wrong, maybe it was the choreography, or the dress, or the whole idea of the performance but this didnt work for me at all.

5. If I Were Sorry - Frans

I have mixed feelings about this entry, there is a part of me that really likes the song but there is another part of me that thinks this could be the "This is my life" of 2016 (Even though it cant be cause Sweden is already in the final but you know what I mean) Who would have thought that a song like this one could be a contenter to win Melodifestivalen?. Frans on stage is charming in a weird, shy kind of way but there are parts were he looks too nervous so I hope he works on that.

6. Håll om mig hårt - Panetoz

I like them but I prefer their 2014 song.

7. Youniverse - Molly Sandén

If I judge this as one of the 28 songs in MF I would say that I kinda like it but if I judge it as the biggest favorites & the one that SVT wants to see winning I can only say that this is just a nice song, and even if  Molly is a great performer and she knows how to shine on stage I think the whole act lacks of a "winner alert" factor,

Melodifestivalen 2015 - Deltävling 1: Its gonna STINK so bad

Välkommen till Melodifestivalen 2015!

Some days ago I thought the 1st semifinal of MF 2015 was going to be bad but it wasnt!.

NU KÖR VI!

1.I'll Be Fine - Molly Pettersson Hammar

This was my favorite song in this semifinal! Molly is a really good singer but I didnt love the performance, It was a solid performance but it could have been better, still I think she totally deserved a top 4 result! Boo to SVT for the App thing! It was very unfair that people couldnt vote for her on the app. I dont buy the "the results would have been the same" bullsh*t! Im very glad she is doing great on Itunes!

2.Pappa - Daniel Gildenlöw

I really like Daniel and his performance was very genuine! The song wasnt as good as "Road salt" but I still like it! Loved his words after the semifinal. Good job Daniel!

3.One By One - Elize Ryd & Rickard Söderberg

These 2 are so talented! I like the song but I would have like to see them as solo artists in Mello! The performance was a ok but I didnt like the structure of it and I guess thats why they didnt get in the top 4 but still I hope to see them again on the MF stage cause they are great!

4.Hello Hi - Dolly Style

This was fun and addictive! The girls vocal performance could've been better but does that matter in this kind of song? I dont think so! WHEN WE DO IT DOLLY STYLE! WE DO IT HELLO HI!

5.Det rår vi inte för - Behrang Miri feat. Victor Crone

This was probably my fav performance of the night! Behrang has such a great stage presence and he is so likeable! I mean how can you not love him!, Victor was also very good. Im glad they are still in the competition! Good luck in AC!

6.Can't Hurt Me Now - Jessica Andersson

The good: Jessica is a very lovely woman, she is really talented and her stage presence is amazing (she knows how to make a great performance)
The bad: The song! I think this is a very meh song and I still dont get why it got  in the final (Well, I actually get it! Its because of her and her performance) 

I like her and Im very happy for her cause you could see how much she wanted to get a good result but I dont think this song is a good finalist.

7.Sting - Eric Saade

Im not the biggest fan of Eric! (I dont hate him though) but I cant deny that he is a really good performer! He works hard to make a good show but for me that is not enough! The stage act was nice but Im not sure if  I liked the first part with the video parts (I actually think the reprise version was better because it didnt have that gimmick) What can I say about the song? I like the beat and the melody but those lyrics are so awful! (Good job Kempe! Once again making horrible lyrics for Saade. PD: Sorry to Kempe if he didnt write the lyrics) Now the question is: Is this song a Eurovision winner? I dont think so! (But who knows? I mean there are weak years with bad winners)

One last thing to say about the show: GREAT JOB SANNA & ROBIN!
