Melodifestivalen 2012 - Andra chansen

Well they're "lucky" coz I was going to skip andra chansen tonight to watch the spanish final. But mello begins at 20:00 CET and the spanish final at 22:30 CET so I won't miss any of these two. Ok, andra chansen! Here are the duels!

Seriously the draw sucks! And this whole duel thing is pure crap! I mean if you have two favourites in the same pot, only one of them might make it to the final! They should make andra chansen like a simple semi where all songs have equal chances! But anyway, this year's andra chansen is the weakest in years! I only care about Timoteij making it to the final!! The rest of the songs are either meh or totally suck! Ah whatever. Timoteij to Globen!

Mixed feelings. Again! I mean come on! I will never be 100% happy about mello results! Lisa Miskovsky made it to Globen! First! Even though I think Sarah Dawn Finer said that the names are announced in random order. Ehm ok I'd like to believe that she made it to Globen first coz that means that Danny wasn't so popular and even though he made it to Globen, he won't be a threat to Loreen!

To andra chansen: Dynazty and Lotta Engberg and Christer Sjögren

5th place - Charlotte Perrelli. Oh my God! :( Why Sweden? Not even a second chance? She deserved it! Aaaw and she was so sweet during the results' announcement. When it was her or Danny to Globen you could see on her face that she knew it was going to be Danny... Poor Charlotte! :(
6th place - Axel Algmar. Meh. I don't care about his song. I didn't like it.
7th place - Hanna Lindblad. Come on Sweden vol 2!! 7th? 7th???? I loooooved "Goosebumps"! And Hanna was amazing! At least a second chance for her!
8th place - OPA! No surprise here. They totally sucked and I am Greek!

And that's it! Now all 32 songs are free on youtube! And now remember. It has to be  
LOREEN TO BAKU!!!!!!!!

Melodifestivalen 2012 - The full songs of heat 4 in Malmö!

1. The Girl - Charlotte Perrelli
Ok I actually love this right now! That "Mamma Mia" feeling is amazing! I don't want it in Baku but definitely in Globen!! How couldn't I not like a Perrelli song? Well a mello-Perrelli song! Love it! Love it!!

2. Allting Blir Bra Igen - OPA! 
I am Greek and I totally dislike that 100% greek music. Now this, combined with the swedish language? Lethal combination! Sorry I can't listen to the entire song! It's too painful!

3. Land of Broken Dreams - Dynazty  
Yeah, not my cup of tea.

4. Don't Let Me Down - Lotta Engberg and Christer Sjögren
I like the chorus but the rest is just...meh? Something doesn't sound right. It won't go far...

5. Goosebumps - Hanna Lindblad
Like! A lot! More than "Manipulated"!!! Wow! Great one!!!! I didn't get so excited from the 1-minute snippet but the full song is amazing!!!

6. Kyss Mig - Axel Algmark 
I like the music but the rest is not good! Just ok-ish...

7. Why Start A Fire - Lisa Miskovsky  
Yup I like that! To andra chansen! I'd like to say "to Globen" but it's difficult. But I do like this song. And Lisa will have a really nice presentation. It fits the song. Nice atmosphere.

8. Amazing - Danny Saucedo
Ok I like the song but as I said the gimmick is bad. Sure it's a bit wow but Sweden sending one gimmick after another won't look good. I'm afraid it won't work. Please Sweden don't ruin Loreen's chances! Please?


LOREEN TO BAKU!!!!

Melodifestivalen 2012 - Snippets of the first rehearsals - Semi 4 Malmö

Ok snippets are out! Let's see Malmö!

1. The Girl - Charlotte Perrelli
I love Perrelli! I really do. But "The Girl"? Naah. Sorry, if this goes to Baku it won't even qualify. Ok maybe it will but it will do worse than "Hero". I want her in Globen though! ;D

2. Allting Blir Bra Igen - OPA! 
Oh my God! That won't even work in Greece! Jesus Christ! This is like pure greek music with swedish lyrics! Next!

3. Land of Broken Dreams - Dynazty 
Not my cup of tea and please! We already have a rock (metal? call it however you want) song in Globen. No need for another one.

4. Don't Let Me Down - Lotta Engberg and Christer Sjögren
Lovely Lotta! I always wanted to see her live. Does this mean I want them in Globen? I don't know! The song is kinda boring and they won't stand a chance in Baku! Sorry...

5. Goosebumps - Hanna Lindblad
I don't know if this is better than her 2010 entry "Manipulated"... I like "Goosebumps" but I don't see it going far...

6. Kyss Mig - Axel Algmark
What the f-word is that? (yeah like I've never used the word "fuck" before! lol) I'm being funny (?) here coz this sucks! And I don't know what else to say! Let's move on!

7. Why Start A Fire - Lisa Miskovsky 
I like that. Lisa's song (along with Charlotte's) leaked on the internet earlier this week so it's not the first time I hear this. I'd like to see her in Globen. Though maybe through andra chansen coz I think Charlotte and Danny will make it to Globen. But hey! It's the Swedes who vote! You get my point right?

8. Amazing - Danny Saucedo 
Ok they got Alex Sparrow's gimmick and took it a step forward. Not in a good way. I mean they need a gimmick like that, for what? My guess? The song is mediocre. That's what I believe and it's a shame that they need to do something like this to get votes. Danny will make it to Globen. No doubt about that! But this whole LED thing? Naah! And if Sweden sends this, I don't see it going well. It's like a Saade vol 2! With a cooler (?) gimmick! Europe won't take this well. Just because the Saade recipe worked last year, it doesn't mean you have to do it again. Bring something new to the contest! Something new called Loreen maybe? Oh my God!! I really don't like this! I like Danny but not this song, not this gimmick! It won't work in ESC! And ALL the tween girls are gonna ruin Loreen's chances! Damn it Sweden!


LOREEN TO BAKU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
