Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

Sweden will have its melodifestivalen Andra chansen aka second chance tonight. Winners of each duel will join the previously qualified top-2 from each semifinal earlier. Eurovision 2012 winner Loreen is back to this round just like in her debut when she didn't make it. Her Statements didn't quite convince televoters yet. Let's see what happens tonight. This blogger would just leave it here to be honest, if only she wasn't against Hagman... Sigh. Same goes for FO&O, not good at all but better than De Vet Du. Axel beats Lisa in my books easily, and Boris the Swedish washed out version of UMK17's Club La Persé. Anyways, the weakest and most uninteresting Andra chansen in history.... Felix, Oscar & Omar /FO&O - Gotta thing about you Vs. De Vet Du - Roadtrip Axel Schylström - När ingen ser Vs. Lisa Ajax - I don't give a Boris René - Her kiss Vs. Dismissed - Hearts align Anton Hagman - Kiss you goodbye Vs. Loreen - Statements

Melodifestivalen continues tonight with the second semifinal. As always two will make the final, two wil make the andra chansen and three will say adjö to Eurovision dreams and rush to the charts. Or so they hope. Mariette returns and even if I never was a fan of hers she sounds pretty good! Then we move from Pontare's mysstic sounds to Etzia's very Swedish rhythms, you know. Sweden is in the Caribian tropics for all I know. Some useless hiphop follows with some androgyneus poprock that was born old. Then enters Lisa Ajax with a lot of f*cks all over the place. Finally Pernilla's son and a relative to Swedish House Mafia offers some anonymous pop. All this said this is an improvement from last weeks all time low.  Semifinal 2: 11 February, Malmö Mariette – A million years -> FINAL Roger Pontare – Himmel och hav Etzia – Up Allyawan – Vart haru varit Dismissed – Hearts align -> Andra chansen Lisa Ajax – I don’t give a - > Andra chansen Benjamin ...
