Melodifestivalen 2023: The Final - Stockholm (1 Viewer)

[Soldi]

The running order has been revealed…

 

[D5K]

What a bizarre order. Who wants Paul Rey coming along to spoil the show at the end?

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Looking through that running order to find Loreen's competition, yet I couldn't??

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Very sweet of Sweden to let Mariette join in for the fifth time tbh x

 

[FetchFugly]

That doesn't feel like a very generous slot for Marcus and Martinus

Paul Rey closing is just perverse. I would have expected Panteoz or Theoz... even Tone or JHF before him.

 

[ButterTart]

Very strong line up for the final, overall. The only three I dislike are Tone, Maria and pernicious vole Paul Rey.

I was sure Panetoz would open or close.

Tone?!

 

[COB]

Hope Mariette gets a mild cough and can't perform.

 

[FetchFugly]

I wonder if they will manage to make Jon Henrik seem a little less gormless for the performance in the final. I really enjoy the studio version.

 

[ButterTart]

Tone?!

Yeah, it's crap. I didn't like her one last year, either.

 

[Jacques]

I can't believe Marcus & Martinus have been stitched up like this

Why are you so evil?

 

[HalamaK]

Here's some loon who've spent the better part of a week to make a 20min video explaining why Tattoo is the best choice this year

As if any of us on this longe can throw the first stone.

that must have taken you ages!

 

[HalamaK]

Loreen adds lighting while everyone else increases pyro.

 

[Kratz]

Has Mariette managed to get everybody moving at the same pace?

 

[dUb]

Cheeky PLUG for my podcast episode on the finalists with Suomi & HS for the guests and bots

 

[ButterTart]

Who else is going to see it live?

 

[HalamaK]

Each nail takes mother 20min to fix, just the nails would take her 3-4h had she done them herself

 

[HalamaK]

Changes since
1. Where You Are (Sávežan) – Jon Henrik Fjällgren, Arc North feat. Adam Woods: They've mounted three of Kiana's LED lights on each side of the platform. New jacket for Adam.
2. Rhythm Of My Show – Tone Sekelius: More BLING on clothes.
3. One Day – Mariette: Rainbow on LEDs behind Mariette.
4. Air – Marcus & Martinus: Choreo more in synch, fog still doesn't work.
5. On My Way – Panetoz: More pyro.
6. Never Give Up – Maria Sur: Maria sings better.

 

[HalamaK]

The Swedish journalists have been pissed that SVT has refused to release the international jury before Friday this year, but has now managed to leak it.


International jury 2023:

Australia
Belgium
Croatia
Lativa
Malta
Spain
Germany
Austria

 

[HalamaK]

No Norway, no Ukraine, no UK, no Italy.

 

[Kratz]

No wonder Simon Proctor threw his toys out of the pram

 

[Soldi]

No Ukrainian jury isn’t too surprising with Maria in the line-up.

 

[Jacques]

Who else is going to see it live?

Me, my boyfriend and the ghost of a friend who can no longer afford to go or pay us back but still had Ticketmaster open on six different screens on Tuesday to get any Eurovision tickets she could get her mitts on

 

[Pingu]

4. Air – Marcus & Martinus: Choreo more in synch, fog still doesn't work.

No harm, but the only place I've read that they were supposed to have fog in the first place was one of your previous posts. Based on Loreen's performance I think it's clear that they're capable of producing COPIOUS amounts of fog.

 

[Suomi]

If it’s fog you want, just get @Sheena on the side of the stage with a packet of Benson and Hedges

 

[HalamaK]

7. Six Feet Under – Smash Into Pieces: LED lighting from below so that you can see the singers eyes from under the cap. More stage lights. Pyro shot from cieling added for high note.
8. Where Did You Go – Kidnap: Changed kick!
9. Släpp alla sorger – Nordman: Nothing new.
10. Tattoo – Loreen: More stage lights.
11. Mer av dig – Theoz: Red jacket now and even more pyro!
12. Royals – Paul Rey. The start is different now with him placed on the edge of the stage and walking back so that you get a view the entire arena and audience. A LOT MORE COMET PYRO!

 

[Alla]

8. Where Did You Go – Kidnap

 

[Alla]

The amount of pyro this year, my goodness.

 

[Zu]

Hope Mariette gets a mild cough and can't perform.

How SHOCKINGLY UNKIND!

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

The way this feels like such a foregone conclusion (TBC OF COURSE) I'd forgotten the final was even happening tomorrow until I saw this thread bumped

 

[Zu]

Well at least Mariette doesn’t pose a threat

That’s ONE DOWN!

 

[ButterTart]

Up the Heathrow now, should be in Sweden by 5pm Carola Clock Time.

 

[Zu]

Didn’t M&M say that they wouldn’t go to ESC if they won MF (NOT THAT THEY’RE GOING TO) or did I imagine that? If the former: (a) hurrah and (b) who do they think they are - Italian?

Don’t forget to stock up on jumbo Toblerone

Might buy myself a bit of Paco Rabane as well.
