“Rock music could do well in the Eurovision Song Contest”

Lauren was the main topic of conversation before, during, and possibly also after Part IV. A favorite of the record crowd and game companies, her song was leaked, which in turn made headlines. When it came time for the show, the unthinkable happened. In the middle of Lauren’s contribution, someone tried to get on stage and her number had to be interrupted in the middle.

After a few minutes, she was ready to drive again and had to start over. The love song “Tattoo” and its powerful stage show make the contribution the highlight of the evening. Seems to go straight to the final is obvious. After all, this is the woman who won the entire Eurovision Song Contest.

Smashing to pieces stands out more

In terms of genre, pop music dominates; uptempo, club pop, folk pop and beautiful ballads. But the contribution that really stands out is Smash into pieces “Six feet under,” a song that feels fresh for several reasons. Drummer for rock band The Apocalypse DJ in Mask.

It is also the only rock song to participate in Sweden’s Melodifestivalen this year. “Six Feet” is about singer Chris Adams’ past life crisis that he wants to inspire others through. So it’s not another love song, which usually goes well in Mello, but it might be nice to hear other stories as well.

An additional pleasure is that the group went to the final, because rock music can do very well at the Eurovision Song Contest. I think above all of previous winners like Måneskin and Lordi.

Malmo in focus

It was hard to miss the fact that the final competition was held in Malmö, the city was in the spotlight from the start. Actor Per Larsson, better known as Jesse from The Thin Blue Line, gave Malmö kind of a salutation speech at the start. Even Farah and Jesper’s interludes and elements were attached to Knife in a humorous and entertaining way.

The funniest thing was when Farah and Jesper got 9,000 people in the ring to shout the word “donkey” at the same time. Why did they do that? Well, because apparently you don’t say “rump” in Scanian, but you say “donkey” and it’s not considered an ugly word, we non-Scanians have been taught.

Scanian humor is wittier, a little grittier and more playful, coloring the content. After all, the program is led by two people who have been awarded “Skåning of the Year” on different occasions.
