Melodifestivalen 2021: Deltävling Three (1 Viewer)

[VoR]

I literally could not love her more.

 

[Tisch]

Her insta profile is absolutely SENDING me. She uses the Live Laugh Love font!

 

[Apoca]

ICONIC.

 

[Suomi]

I can’t help but wonder what the others are thinking when Elisa is speaking, particularly when she says “this absolutely can’t be the last time we’re on stage all together” and they give each other smiling side-eyes

Omg is she the Swedish Valerie Cherish - her backing dancers are very much the cast of Room and Board

 

[ButterTart]

I don't know if Mello will ever be able to top the insane euphoria of last night's show. Even Elisa stabbing the entire costume department to death hasn't dampened the party spirit.

 

[Penelope]

OMG I hadn't clocked that Tusse was wearing HEELS

 

[AGinAg (39)]

Obviously a lot of people did die last night, but we all had fun and that's the main thing.

The side-eye from the backing dancer at the end!

I'm awarding Elisa Lindström my coveted title of Personality Artisté of Melodifestivalen 2021, joining notable alumni Hanna Ferm (2020), Oscar Enestad (2019), Benjamin Ingrosso (2018) and Benjamin Ingrosso (2017)

Last nights heat had more votes than ANY heat HAS EVER HAD!

 

[Penelope]

Remember it's not just how hard you fall, but also how you get back up

 

[Penelope]

Last nights heat had more votes than ANY heat HAS EVER HAD!

This explodes all prior assumptions that our schlager queens could only make it through low voting heats

 

[Sheena]

SHE FUCKING WON AND NOW SHE’S GOING TO WIN THE WHOLE THING AND COME 16TH IN ROTTERDAM

 

[VoR]

Not that I think it's winning, but I do hope the juries don't totally murder her. It feels like a much stronger and more contemporary example of the genre than, say, Lina Hedlund's Victorious.

It's too early for me to decide if I like it better than Party Voice, but even that felt a touch more 'strictly for gays'.

I'd like it if she could manage a Helena Paparizou 2014 sort of result, which is probably the ceiling, realistically.

 

[Lucille]

She’s winning Melfest, she’s winning Eurovision, the world is renouncing all past religions and anointing her as the one true GOD.

Obviously it would then all depend on how the juries went, but I think she could manage a similar televote to the kind that got Anna Bergendahl to third last year. She's probably set to sweep the older age categories.

This just proves Sweden are gagging for uptempo schlager, then.

Also, she's spearheading a trend for anthemic folky pop which I've a feeling will be all over next year's contest.

STEADY ON now, even *I* wouldn't put my whole weight on that ice

She comfortably won (Or maybe Tusse did but he's irrelevant) the most hotly contested semi of all the time. Uptempo schlager is more popular than God in Sweden.

 

[cwej]

Even without speaking any Swedish whatsoever living for those Elisa insta posts. Those reactions!!

 

[Penelope]

Girls - I'm just about ready to declare last night an all time classic heat for the ages!

Classic villains! Breakout stars (and I don't just mean from jail)! Immediately iconic STYLING OCH CONSULTING disasters! A fairytale ending @Sheena will be telling his gay great nephews about for years to come!

 

[Apoca]

I don't know about you but I've been playing STILL YOUNG on (youtube) repeat for much of the past 24 hours.

What a weekend!

 

[D5K]

I've decided that I absolutely love 'Beat of Broken Hearts'. But the "oh... no... yeah..." moment is the worst and laziest few seconds of music I've heard in a long time.

Are you passing negative comment on a key change?

The key change itself is of course marvellous. But everything else about it is disappointing.

The drum fill especially!

3.2 million viewers this week.

+300,000 on last week
+500,000 on Heat 3 2020

The pulling power of LA PERRELLI

How many viewers in week 1?

 

[VoR]

3.2 mill for Heat One as well, so this was essentially a bounceback after losing some viewers in Heat Two.

Interesting if the winner winds up coming from the least watched heat - but it's all relative as the ratings this year are extremely healthy.

It nearly happened in 2014 - Ace Wilder went direkt by the skin of her teeth in 2nd with only 900 more votes than Outtrigger (!!! at the thought of ACE VS HELENA in AC!) and only 6,000 more votes than Dr Alban/Jessica Folcker in 5th

This thread

I have a sense of calm because I know that tonight, for once, everything is going to go our way

It’s @HerSereneHighnessAnniFrid i feel sorry for.

I am very nervous at present and removing all sharp items and smashable crockery in case things don’t go well for either Charlotte or @Suomi

Oh if she goes out, it's OVER.

I’m a qualified Mental Health First Aider

@Suomi has just got a mixing bowl of crisps

OMG A GAY MIRACLE

THERE IS A GOD

Live scenes

OMG HE ACCIDENTALLY TURNED OFF THE FUCKING TV
