Melodifestivalen 2023: Deltävling One - Gothenburg (1 Viewer)

[Sheena]

Her voice remains fucking brilliant.

Does it? She sounds like she’s on 40 a day and not in a good way…

 

[Tisch]

Aww, no motorised disc?

 

[Sheena]

(Though yes, generally her voice is fantastic)

 

[HalamaK]

God you can really tell SVT have SLASHED the budget this year

It's the labels who have slashed their production budgets for Mello. SVT greatly increased their budget for presentation a few years ago.

 

[ButterTart]

Does it? She sounds like she’s on 40 a day and not in a good way…

I love that sort of voice, though. Italy takes it slightly too far, mind. Their singers tend to sound like they’ve swallowed a cheese grater.

 

[VoR]

WTF?!

 

[VoR]

Has the stream died for everyone?

 

[win_the_game]

!

 

[Sheena]

Happening in Sweden too!

 

[VoR]

Holy shit what a mess!

 

[win_the_game]

Clearly someone at SVT thought there was nothing else worth qualifying

 

[ButterTart]

Linda, what have you done?

 

[Kratz]

Oh no what a FIASKOT

 

[Tisch]

 

[Tisch]

We missed a load of votes as well the presenters seem to have no idea

 

[Sheena]

POOR LOULOU

 

[win_the_game]

The way these results are announced is bizarre.

 

[FetchFugly]

I'll be quite pleased to have the studio version of LouLou's song this evening anyway.

 

[Sheena]

That’s lovely for Tone.

 

[FetchFugly]

I really didn't see Tone DOMINATING like this.

 

[VoR]

That was about a well as it realistically could have gone. Thank God the twink has been eliminated.

 

[ButterTart]

Elon and Beny to kindly fuck off before the final, please.

 

[Kratz]

I really like Tone’s entry

 

[Tisch]

I didn't see that coming at all. Not sure what about that Tone performance would make people pick up and vote. Very happy for her though!

 

[Lucille]

Can someone summarise the results for us MGP watchers?

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

Can someone summarise the results for us MGP watchers?

Final: Jon Henrik & Adam, Tone
AC: Victor, Benny & Elov
5th: Rehjan
6th: Loulou
7th: Eva & Ewa

 

[ButterTart]

That’s two years in a row I’m baffled at what people are hearing in a Tone Sekelius song.

 

[Tetris-Rock]

What a HILARIOUS result - I thought she was completely DOOMED

 

[win_the_game]

That’s two years in a row I’m baffled at what people are hearing in a Tone Sekelius song.

Something we can actually agree on.

 

[VoR]

LouLou predictably lovely in studio. Poor cow

 

[VoR]

WTF?

 

[FetchFugly]

Linda AGOG and mentally crossing him off the list for her next comeback.

 

[Tisch]

WTF?

Was this why the feed went down?

 

[D5K]

Hope they don’t disqualify all his songs

 

[Kratz]

OMG what happened!

Linda acting all shocked (probably behind it)

 

[D5K]

Don’t think he even had any songs tonight.

 

[Suomi]

Also there is no WAY Tone is making it DTF, Jon Henrik is winning the first round and I really cannot see Tone’s song being popular enough to win the second round of voting. She’s more likely to finish fifth overall.

 

[VoR]

Explanation for the G:Son incident.

"The explanation is actually very simple. Thomas G:son has not written any songs this week and therefore has no accreditation. But he was in the arena with a ticket and followed the broadcast in the audience. No one who does not have the correct accreditation may stay in the greenroom at all. I, who have press accreditation, am not allowed to stay there unless I am admitted with an escort. And the guards are strictly told to make sure that no one enters the greenroom who does not have accreditation. So even if it is perhaps Melodifestivalen's most famous songwriter, he has no right to be in the greenroom, even if it is after the broadcast."

Disappointingly banal but also how embarrassing for him.

 

[D5K]

Don’t think he even had any songs tonight.

I was on the right track then.

 

[Penelope]

We've not had a heat one that bad in quite a while!
