That time of the year again
14 years ago
General
The following content may or may not contain floof, you have been warned! So every year around this time I post a journal presenting the Swedish entry to the European event "Eurovision Song Contest". This year will not be different!
The winner of the national contest, and thus the entry for the big event this year, was my favorite by far of our possible choices. The best one we've had for years actually.
Loreen performing "Euphoria"
Here's hoping it goes far in the main event =D
I loved the choreography for this song as well =)
there were two songs I liked better than this, but eh... we'll never win anyway, so who cares. XD
That song was quite nice, and I've always liked the violin =)
It's gonna be interesting to see if you translate the song to English or not, in a way I think it could do better in Icelandic because it sounds a bit uhh... fantasy-ish =D
But at the same time it might be nice to understand the words as well, to fully grasp the meaning of the lyrics.
I definitely think sweden has a shot at winning... you guys seem to have a knack for being successful at so many things. :D
I'm not entirely sure about that...
We haven't won for like 14 years =P
I see the issue of Iceland winning, but you could pass on the right to host the event to the second place country I believe, I think that's been done previously.
Thankfully I don't live close enough to Stockholm to really be affected if we won. Perhaps there will be a lot more traffic at the local airport (which is a budget alternative for visitors to Stockholm from within Europe) but that's a few kilometers away =)
I am kinda interested to know what exactly you mean we're successful at though =D
