Darin is the first Melodifestivalen joker and it looks like his name hasn't been mentioned this year at all beforehand which makes it even nicer! Incidently I heard some Darin music just yesterday and the thought crossed my mind but.... Darin Zanyar (22) came second in the Idols 2004 and is of Kurdistan heritage. He has released already four albums and has covered Lena Philipsson and dueted with Finnish Jonna (Explain) for example, and has also a following in Finland. He also claims he had an affair with Anna Abreu in the past... Great choice! His latest single is a Coldplay cover and current #1 in Sweden Viva la vida and other hits include Money for nothing, Why does it rain?, Step up, Who's that girl?, Want ya!, Perfect, Everything but the girl, Desire, Insanity, Breathing your love. He will perform Out of my life in Melodifestivalen 2010 that he didn't write but he is already a co-writer of two other songs in 2010: Doctor doctor and Headlines!
