What is that?

it's a shop with clothes

Ok, cool!

I hope the song will be played in more countries after ESC!

me too! and it will certainly be a summer hit around some countries!

Especially here in Sweden, it have already got 5 platinum but I think it still will be popular this summer.

she will have a busy summer then

Even more busier if she wins I think!

Yeah probably.

i think its on their playlist so its probably played all around the world like bio in h&m

That is even better. Where is the head quarters for this store?

The song is already a hit in some european contries. Chek Euphoria's Wikipedia page.

H&M headquarters are in Stockholm. I can't wait for Loreen to release her album but it's going to be well after Eurovision I'm guessing.

Sarah Dawn Finer will give out Swedens points in ESC.

They were talking about New Yorker, which is a german company, and I guessed it's based there as well. Their home page also said the first store was opened in Germany.

I think the album will chart well in many countries around Europe, and maybe hit a few dance floors.

Loreen flew out to Baku this morning

they didn't changed anything

i didn't think they would either. That song wouldn't be as good or powerful with a too busy stage show. I like it, i think her voice is awesum!

I think the only big change is that we have 3 background singers instead of zero. I believe I heard that the platform she stands on would be a little bigger though.

maybe they didn't want to showcase the whole performance at once?

If they would leave new things out today, needed practice time would go lost. So I think that is how the performance will look. Except different clothes then.

i know most of the artists has other places where they can rehearse. but probably the performance will look something like this

She probabably have backing singers now because she weren't allowed to have them recored in the music as she had in Melodisfestivalen. That's just my guess

I think she will have the same clothes or similar as she had in MF

That is true, read it on SVT's page!

I read on yesterdays news paper edition on Expressen, that these are the changes:
1: Three new background singers.
2: The light: more light then in melodifestivalen. A new spotlight is on Loreen. To get the feeling that she is on a parallel world. Request for getting a better contrast between light and dark have been made.
3. Effect, the snow that falled on Loreen in melodifestivalen isn't allowed because of safety. The snow will fall around the stage instead.
4. The dancer will begin in another position then in melodifestivalen.
5. Better choreography, less jerky.
6. New clothes.

ok, so they are making a few changes at least! that's good

I really liked her performance in melodifestivalen, so I do not see any reason to change it either. The choreography fits the song so well.

honestly i didn't liked her choreography at mf but im glad that they reduced her hands word

Hands word?

hahahahaha when she do those waves with her hands

Oh, I didn't see that, that she took that away.

I have now looked at it again and she still have it there, where do you mean she took it away?

Hmm, and then I looked at the first rehearsal video. She is calmer but she still moves her hands a little bit.

it seems that snow got in her mouth at 2 15

It is very sad that happened, she made an MUCH better performance there then in the semi final! I hope it doesn't affect the jury voting. :(
It was the best performance she have done if we count all performances in rehearsals for eurovision and semi final 1.

me either.

You hope it doesn't affect the jury voting, or what do you mean?

Why not real snow? Then she could just go on and melt it in her mouth.

yes, that's what i meant.

Sweden won!

Finally they can win without Elena. I don't think that they will ask Elena again. Now Elena should represent Greece next Year in Sweden.

For an interval act they should ask her.
Btw who said they can't win without Elena? They have won many times without her.

Yes, but the last time was 1999. That's a long time for Sweden. And since 2005 they asked Elena many times.

1999?
Ah okay then.
I forget that Ryback was for NOrway not Sweden
Yes now I remember they were just always very close to win but they didn't until now

Christer Björkman will probably never stop ask Helena Paparizou to be in the contest.

I am very happy today for the win. So glad that Loreens song got chosed, for sure the best song in melodifestivalen.

#1 itunes Germany and #2 itunes UK.

And again, like every single year, i hate the winner!
