The one that wins the competition "Svensktoppen nästa" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svensktoppen / http://sverigesradio.se/sida/default.aspx?programid=3147 ) will get a guaranteed place in melodifestivalen 2013.

The final will not be held in Globen as usual, it will be held in a arena called friends arena in Solna outside Stockholm who is currently under construction.
It will also be the new national arena of Sweden.

yeah smth like that Very Happy

first I didn't like it but now I think it's a quite good idea.

It's much closer to Uppsala as well so if we're going to the last rehearsal again we don't have to sleep over at any of our relatives Very Happy

**Samuel** Thu May 03, 2012 3:27 am

Do you want any changes for next year then?

**Miranda** Thu May 03, 2012 8:41 pm

i kinda like how it is now. though i think andra chansen could be skipped. Those who qualify from there never win anyway dislike

Well, I think like you but also I like andra chansen. Gives some good music second chances. I would not be "sad" if it gets skipped but I would like it to stay anyhow.

i know what you mean, it gives you a chance to hear the songs again smile

and some of them have become huge radio hits after the MF Keep Paparizouing!

**Samuel** Wed May 09, 2012 5:51 am

Loreens "My heart is refusing me" are you thinking about now? Very Happy

I think it went bigger then many other songs that went directly to the final.

yeah exactly! Very Happy

**Samuel** Wed May 09, 2012 5:55 am

If you would guess, what artists will be in 2013? Very Happy

**Miranda** Wed May 09, 2012 6:11 am

i think there will be some recognizable faces, but it's hard to tell which ones. It is easier to say that there defo will be some unknown faces Cool

**Samuel** Mon May 14, 2012 10:18 pm

Do you think we will see Carola? lol!

**Miranda** Mon May 14, 2012 11:11 pm

hopefully not lol!

**Samuel** Mon May 14, 2012 11:17 pm

I do not hope it either, but if she will be there I do not think she will win anyhow.

But if you could chose three artists/bands from Sweden, to be in melodifestivalen. What would it be?

**Miranda** Tue May 15, 2012 1:25 am

oh, that's hard. Maybe Ulrik Munther again, because I liked the sound of the song he had this year. I also would like to see either Tove Styrke or September, because I like their style, and their music.

What about you?

**Samuel** Tue May 15, 2012 1:43 am

Oh yes. Tove Styrke and September I would like to see participate.

The last one I say I am 99,9% sure that they will never compete, but hoffmaestro would be fun to see also. Very Happy

Chris K wrote:So Paparizou wont participate

Heat 3 and 4 is revealed next week, so it can still be that Helena will participate. I do not think she will, but I didn't think that before heat 1 and 2 was revealed either.

**Linen** Tue Nov 20, 2012 7:10 pm

I don't think Elena will be in dislike

I'm 95% sure she won't.
I don't mind Tone she's nice smile

I think she likes Sweden and wouldn't mind competing for Sweden smile

Like loads of singers try in other countries than their own al the time smile

I hope "Skyline" is a good song, if it is, I'm routing for David!
His cd "Get Started" is awesome so hopefully this song will be in the same class as his other songs smile

**Samuel** Tue Nov 20, 2012 11:07 pm

I have nothing against Tone either, but still it was for sure not what I expected.

I was almost thinking about buying tickets for the final of Melodifestivalen and Eurovision next year, But i rather be at home and record the final of Melofifestivalen and Eurovision (But i wIll probably be in Greece during that time)...
But, i hope that it will be good next year, since i did only see 2 heats and the Final of Melofifestivalen last year.. So.. Yeah..

**Jessica** Thu Jan 03, 2013 11:54 pm
