Melodifestivalen 2012 - Deltävling 3: Kärleken kärleken kärleken oj oj oj

I dont even know how to start this post about the 3rd semifinal of the Melodifestivalen 2012. Theres not a lot of things to say, i didnt like this semifinal, i dont know if its because of my favorite or it was just a bad semifinal. I really enjoy the MF and im enjoying this year so far but not so much as i should cause i feel im going to be disappointed at the end so i dont want to get super excited and sadly im still getting excited and i still hope for some surprises but deep inside i know its going to so hard but thats other topic, lets start with the songs of this semi:

1. Youngblood - Youngblood

Ok, what can i say? i think Kempe should take some years off from MF or find someone to make him good lyrics, i just cant stand the horrible lyrics of this song and its a surprise cause i never imagine something worse than Popular but here it is. The whole performance was awkward for me cause they were so bad and i think they gave their best but im sorry they doesnt have charisma and their vocal performance wasnt good so Swedish people why did you voted for this? the chorus might be catchy i get that but c'mon the performance was meh, the song is a very bad version of manboy and they 5 guys together are like 2% of Eric Saade so i dont get how this is in Andra Chansen, still i wish them good luck.

2. I mina drömmar - Maria BenHajji

Awww Maria!, She is so beautiful, she was my favorite in the webjoker competition and im very happy she made it to the MF, i really love this song since the 1st day i heard it, the performance was ok, it wasnt great and she was so nervous at the first part of the song and it was sad cause she is a great singer but her vocals were shaky when she started singing but then after the 1st chorus she was great. This is one of my favorite songs of this year and im sure i'll sing/heard it a lot this year. I send all my love to Maria and the composers of this lovely song.

3. Förlåt mig - Mattias Andréasson

The best of the semifinal, its so sad that he didnt get the result he deserved, i like the song he did a fantastic performance and the audience voted for a talentless band and an orange old man with a playback barbie, whatever, well done Mattias and im glad he is doing well on Itunes.

4. Just A Little Bit - Love Generation

Last year i didnt like them because i was expecting something better and this year its the same, it doesnt matter if its a Redone song, the girls are just not good but i have to admit that they were much better than last year and much much better than Kempe's boyband, the song was just ok and i dont get why did they gave a last part solo to the worst singer? the blond girl totally ruined everything in that part. Still i think they deserved a top 5 place but they dont have fangirls/kempefans to vote for them.

5. Sanningen - Carolina Wallin Pérez

She is so sweet, she was one of the surprises of this semifinal cause when i listened to the song i thought it was nice but her performance was so good and real that i was hoping for a top 5 surprise but whatever she did a fantastic job and she should be happy cause it was one of the best performances of the night.

6. Lovelight - Andreas Johnson

After i watched the 1min clip of the rehearsals he was my favorite and im not a huge fan of him but his performance was really good and his final spot was robbed so i understand why he was mad and im with him, i wish him all the best in Andra chansen.

7. Why Am I Crying - Molly Sandén

I like her song but i dont think its a good entry for eurovision, its a nice ballad but not a fabulous ballad, the performance was really good and im glad she got her ticket to Globen!

8. Mirakel - Björn Ranelid feat. Sara Li

I like this but its sad thats its in globen when other good songs were eliminated, so i really get why all the artists are mad with the results of this song, i wonder if Sara li sang cause im sure it was 100% playback. My favorite part of this was when he tried to sing and the Kärleken kärleken kärleken kärleken oj oj oj.

The best performance of the semifinal was this one:

Sarah and Gina are doing such an awesome job as host!

So i really cant say a lot of things, i said the LG and Youngblood thing cause its kinda obvious but i hope im wrong and if those 2 have great songs im sure i'll be very happy and i'll suport them. Im happy to see Andreas again even if im not a huge fan of his entries i think he is an amazing artist, im very curious with Mattias and Carolina Wallin Perez entries. And I hope my webjoker girl get a chance to be in the top 4, cause i really love that song.

Melodifestivalen 2011 - Andra Chansen: Oh my God, Oh my God I love The Moniker

The Andra Chansen of this year was one of the strongest, a lot of good songs and some of them really deserved to be on the final, there were problems with the voting numbers and that made me have some doutbs about the results but it doesnt matter cause we have our 2 finalist and the big final on Saturday.

My favorites were Jenny Silver, Loreen, The Moniker/Linda Pritchard, Pernilla Andersson.

The show was good but i didnt love it, the best show still being the 2nd semifinal.

All my love and a huge round of applause to my girls JENNY SILVER & LOREEN!

Jenny is on my top 3 of favorites this year, she is lovely and did an amazing job, i found a bit strange that the camera work failed on her performance, i know it can happen but i really think that it was weird, i dont know but i believe that she was the winner on that round, her performance was much better than the Love generation performance and their vocals were worse than in the semifinal, so that mess with the camera was to fucked up Jennys chances? still it didnt affected cause she gave her heart on stage and it was a nice performance and honestly she deserved the final on the 1st semifinal over that Swingfly, BRAVO to Jenny, Rickard, dancers, songwriters and all her team. Also a big Thanks to all the people who voted for this Schlager queen!


Loreen a huge surprise for me, AMAZING singer with a great look and with one of the best songs in this year MF, imo this was perfect for eurovision, its sad that its not in the final but im sure this song is going to be a hit. Bravo Loreen and all her team for making this amazing performance that unfortunately we are not going to see on esc but i really enjoyed on MF.


A good thing of the Melodifestivalen is that you get to know some artists that you didnt know so i have to say that im a new fan of Pernilla Andersson she is so real and lovely, you cant get tired of her music, i just LOVE her and i was so happy to see her reaction when she won the duel. Bravo Pernilla and thanks for you wonderful music.


Shirley's angels were cool and i hope to see Linda Pritchard again on MF someday.

Now lets talk about the finalists:

Sara Varga: She has improved a lot, so im happy for that, her song its very nice with meaningful lyrics im not sure if its the best one from the line up for eurovision but its not the worse, it will depend on the performance, good luck to her.


The Moniker: As i said before he was a wonderful surprise for me and im extremely happy for him, his performance its Fabulous and  i LOVE his song, i have my hopes on him for saturday and i think he has the right song for this years eurovision.


This is the running order for the final:

1.In the club - Danny
2.Spring för livet - Sara Varga
3.Oh my God! - The Moniker
4.7 days & 7 nights - Brolle
5.E det fel på mej? - Linda Bengtzing
6.Leaving home - Nicke Borg
7.Me and my drum - Swingfly
8.I'm in love - Sanna Nielsen
9.The king - The Playtones
10.Popular - Eric Saade

All my hopes are on The Moniker, Linda Bengtzing, Eric Saade, Brolle, Sanna and Danny! If the winner is one of them it will be great.

Melodifestivalen 2011 - Deltävling 4: Varje gång jag ser dig exploderar det nånting inom mig

This last semifinal was very good, i was so nervous before the show cause as always i read all the press comments about the songs, the rehearsals, the odds and i dont know why but this week they were too good with some artists and bad with others, then the voting in the dress rehearsal was very weird and i was a bit worried as you all know my favorites for this semifinal were Bengtzing and Pritchard, their songs were amazing but lets comment all the songs right now:

Even if this semifinal was good, the best semifinal was the 2nd and the audience agrees with me cause it was the semifinal with more viewers this year, all the performances and songs from the 2nd semifinal were great but in this one there were some songs and performances that i didnt like at all:

Lasse Stefanz: There's no words to describe this, im sorry but it was horrible, their looks, the song, the voice of the singer, one of the worse performances this year.

Anders Fernette: Its kinda sad cause his 1st song was so good and this was just meh, and the performance was a mess, bad vocals in some parts, i didnt like it, he is very cute, maybe he should try again another year.

Melody Club: They were the winners on the dress rehearsal, but they get on the 7th place on the semifinal what happened? i have no idea, maybe the vocals of the lead singer werent good enough, the song is ok and the performance was very good, i like the chorus "Finally i become the hunter...".


Julia Alvgard: We all knew that she was chanceless in this semifinal but the surprise was that she didnt get the last place, 6th place is till now the best result of a webjoker, i like the song, she did a good performance, her vocals were very nice and she deserved that place. Good job girl!


Love Generation: High expectations for this song cause its a RedOne song, i think the press tried to make them favorites  cause all the comments about this act were very good, they said the show was one of the best MF performance ever, they should go directly to Eurovision, their vocals in the group part are good but in the solists part are kinda bad but we dont care cause its a redone song and it can win eurovision. What i think about this? i think the press made me hated it a bit but i really like the song, their vocals are ok, some parts are bad and the show to me its a bit (very) pretentious, i dont think this should win, im sure the song its going to be a hit, but i dont think it will work on esc, cause it will be the same show, the girls posing and the white carpet and all that stuff. I wonder if the people will follow the press comments on andra chansen cause im sure they will make them super favorites, for the press they are Gaga, Spears, Aguilera and Madonna on stage and im sorry but they are just another girlband with a not fantastic song by RedOne.


Nicke Borg: I really him, he did a very good performance and his song is a great song but WTF was he wearing? please take off your clothes, i know you will look better lol, i have a feeling that this will win, i hope no cause i think he can be another Anna Bergendahl, but lets wait and see.


Linda Pritchard: I loved her last year and i wanted her to come back with a better song and she is here with a beautiful ballad, her vocals were WOW PERFECT!, she looked beautiful and i think she needs to feel more the song, i want some real emotions and i dont like the part when she get down on her knees, but it was a fantastic performance, a big round of applause for her cause she was marvelous.


Well now its the turn for the best of the night, cause it was her night:

LINDA BENGTZING!!!!

I was so nervous, cause i love Linda and i was waiting for this since they announced that she was going to take part this year, i was a bit scared cause almost all the press said that it wasnt good, that the lyrics were horrible, that the performance was bad, that she was going to be on the bottom 3 and all that stupid things that i believe they said cause they wanted LG to win, but when i listened the song i fell in love with it and im not those fans that love whatever the artist do cause i love Sanna Nielsen as much as Linda and if you see my review of the 2nd semifinal i didnt like her performance and her song wasnt the best of that semifinal, so im not loving Lindas song cause its her but cause it make me want to clap, dance, scream and it makes me very happy. I think her performance was good but it can be much better, i just love her energy and passion on stage, when the moment of the results came i was absolutely nervous, it maybe sound freak but i was shaking, only one place left and there were Linda and Melody club, omg i thought f**k, please say melodi nummer sex, when they announced i screamed so loud, it was like omg i almost died, and then the moment of the winner of the semifinal, i thought Love Generation were the winners but in my heart i was hoping to hear Linda Bengtzing and when that happened you cant imagine how happy i was, i screamed yeeeees, this was the best moment of my MF 2011 and also the best of saturday cause all the national finals were not good but i didnt care cause Linda Bengtzing made my day!! a big IN YOUR FACE to the Bengtzing haters and LOL to the one who said that Linda was going to be on the bottom 3. Thank you Linda Bengtzing!!! I LOVE UUU!

GO LINDA BENGTZING!!!
