Sweden 2025: KAJ - Bara bada bastu

People have interestingly started to float the balloon that this could be a relative dud on the night. I still don't think so, but I could see it!
 
Not sure how it’s still the favourite to WIN?!
 
I think at worst it tanks the jury and sweeps the televote in Finland, Norway, Estonia, Denmark and Iceland, which is a minimum of 50-100 points right there. (I think the juries in those countries will treat it quite kindly too, even if the rest of the world is a bit nonplussed).

So I think upper mid-table is the worst it can realistically do, and I expect it to go higher than that. Not sure I buy it as the frontrunner though.
 
I can’t quite see a scenario where it wins either (but it’ll be Top 10, probably Top 5 for sure) - but the same statement rings true for the other entries. The front runners in 2021-2023 were much clearer, this year could be a 2011 redux.
 
I’d say this is the front runner now. It’s easily going to net a 300+ televote score.

Why "should" they? It's fun, well performed, a crowd pleaser, a bit different, simple but effective staging...

Just because a song falls into the "fun" category doesn't mean the juries need to be poe-faced about it. There is clearly an absolute chasm between this and the likes of I Don't Feel Hate or Moustache.

The international juries ranked it well at Melfest, so I don’t see why they wouldn’t do similarly at Eurovision if it’s a clear standout.

Also Rim Tim Tagi Dim and Cha Cha Cha were both top six with the juries.
 
I don’t think the juries should or will bury it - it’s feels like the favourite. I can stand it but it is clearly very popular.
 
It’s also popular because it’s Sweden. I doubt Estonia would have the same chance of winning with the same song.

Juries, sink this shit please!

It’s also popular because the song was well liked by the fandom before their live performance. I told ya’ll they were going to win Mello.

Why? It’s not a joke entry where the performers can’t sing and the gag/gimmick in the performance is the only thing about it. The song stands on its own. It comes from the same Swedish Mello pop factory (Anderz Wrethov) that all their other songs do just with an added accordion.
 
He got booed at JUNIOR EUROVISION! It's totally over for him.

I suspect either somebody else will be given the front-facing role or they'll scrap it altogether. I do kind of hope he tries to brazen it out though.
