I'm really happy Meira and her SULTRY SOUK ANTHEM live to fight another day 

Very much in the grand tradition of opening heat qualifiers that nobody gives a shit about by the finalI don’t mind this going through, it’s fun filler for the final.
Who is your god may I askManifesting Hush Hush scraping into third place![]()
LINNEA CAME SIXTH![]()
It's the first one to not qualify in some form since MARGARET - TEMPO in 2019 - to say nothing of being an immediately iconic disaster outing for such a huge artist!Is that common for a CLOSERbless her
NICE STAT THANKS!It's the first one to not qualify in some form since MARGARET - TEMPO in 2019 - to say nothing of being an immediately iconic disaster outing for such a huge artist!
WHAT A SONG!MARGARET - TEMPO in 2019 - to say nothing of being an immediately iconic disaster outing for such a huge artist!
Only the second time ever the closing act of the semi-final finished last after performing at the end.Is that common for a CLOSERbless her
Oh wellMelodi #6: Linnea Henriksson - Den känslan
On name and professionalism alone, this would really be a shock to see outside the top 2 on the votes.
I actually thought that was much nicer for them! Nobody wants a camera in their face when they find out they flopped. Well, maybe Lisa Scott-Lee would like it but not lesser superstarsOh well
This must have been hard on her, especially the way they announced the acts that were still in the running and entirely ceased to acknowledge 5th and 6th place.
True, but they weren’t even treated to an off-camera farewell round of applause and they still had to sit through the winner's reprise being performed right in front of them...I actually thought that was much nicer for them!

There’s an easy solution to the latter.True, but they weren’t even treated to an off-camera farewell round of applause and they still had to sit through the winner's reprise being performed right in front of them...
Yes the fact that Hush Hush was so immediately iconic that a cameraman literally collapsed and died live on-air just by being in its presence; I cannot rave enough!Hush Hush really does LEVEL THE ENTIRE BUILDING (+ camera operator)![]()
And happily, the full cameraman saga is uploaded on YouTube rather than them using dress rehearsal footage
Bet they didn't stop waving their balloons and whatnot though.That groan is the most emotion a Swedish audience has ever shown
And to think she had not even reached the INTRICATE CHORUS by this pointYes the fact that Hush Hush was so immediately iconic that a cameraman literally collapsed and died live on-air just by being in its presence; I cannot rave enough!
