Daily MF: Press listens to Linköping songs
It's Wednesday and it's time to read what Schlagerprofilera and Tobbe Ek think about 3rd semifinal of Melodifestivalen-2011.
Linda Sundblad - "Lucky You" - radio-friendly gutar-pop in Miley Cyrus style (with Linda's voice making it a bit Agua but without plastic sound), very light and not easy to keep in mind long time. Middle-eight contains "Hollow" heartbeat. Difficult to see it in top.
Simon Forsberg - "Tid att andas" - classic schlager-ballad sounding a bit dated and reminding MF-ballads of Sonya, Shirley and Erik Linder but it grows more interesting and chorus sounds powerful. In the end we get a loud choir that in a whole pack is gonna give goosebumps if Simon will manage to sing everything on a high level or go to bottom if public will get it like new Erik Linder.
Sara Lumholdt - "Enemy" - modern midtempo slightly breathing with 90s but sounding very fresh with good production, string "You're the enemy, enemy, enemy" sticks very well. You can get it as mix of Rihanna and Evanescence but it needs great attitude and performance.
The Playtones - "The King" - exactly that sort of music you could expect from The Playtones. On one hand it sounds a bit Rednex, on the other hand it's like soundtrack to Batman with strong chorus given to any of Dansbandskampen-bands. Fans of this style will be very pleased.
Shirley's Angels - "I Thought It Was Forever" - midtempo starting from Bond's melodics (sort of Ace Of Base' "The Juvenile") going to something like Barbara Streisand's "No more tears" (also comparison with Enrique Iglesias' "Could I Have This Kiss Forever". Nice production, catchy and strong chorus making whole pack candidate for schlagerfans favorite and modern try to make new "Min Kärlek". Can go road either of Sanna or Bettan.
Sebastian - "No One Else Could" - more powerful and positive uptempo comparing with previous Sebastian entry that reminds earlier music of Melody Club and sometimes The Killers, anonymous verses but strong chorus with wistling line. However it needs really good performance.
Sara Varga - "Spring för livet" - soft voice and vibratto in singer-songwriter pop in Lisa Ekdahl style and bossa nova rhythm sounds like nothing in this semifinal and can surprise by result. Touching lyrics about person who has hurt partner really works.
Eric Saade - "Popular" - so obvious finalist that Eric can even not to come to Linköping. It's stronger than "Manboy" and not so direct, though Eric sings "Popular" not less times than he sang "Manboy". This modern Kempe-pop track starts with Boney M's "Rasputin" beat but you can catch a lot of 80s melodics in it (close to Lili & Susie's "Oh Mama"). So Erik feels like real Danny's rival for the win in the final.
As bonuses take cover of Anniela's single that still keeps in iTunes Top-10 with Christian Walz. And schlager-training video with Simon Forsberg and Anders Fernette here.
Also now it's known who will sing winning song of last year and it's rock-band Dynazty - project of Peter Stormare. A bit weird that they've chosen another hardrock-band after last year Casablanca making "La Voix" but hope Dynazty will make it completely different.

Better Eric to win MF than Danny.We also wait for LG.The feeling that a song gies you when you hear a sample of it is different from when you listen to it full:)...If Eric goes to Germany then is between Sweeden and UK,isn't it:P...we wait and see
I can't say before I'll listen to the song tomorrow :) Even if it's such a good song Fredrik Kempe has no good luck on Eurovision to speak directly about chance to win, qualify or not qualify. We'll see tomorrow :) And when all songs will be chosen, for now it's quite weak selection on ESC.
Yes, he is out of luck;)))...So,do you know what is between him and Bjorkman?Are both of them married?:-S:)))
Yep. But with different husbands :)))
What is all this swede,why so many gay there?
Strange,no religion,no God....Oh My God:))))
No ideas. Probably because Swedes have very liberal views on life and everything. Don't understand relation about gays and religion though.
Don't understand the connection I done between gays and reigion?
Yep. Is it a problem to believe in God and to relate to gays normally?
What I said was that because the most of them are not religious they end on wrong paths.Well, Isee it this way-If you live in the cold and dark Siberia where there are a lot of christians....if you are educated in this spirit and you strongly believe in it then you will respect the comands and what bible says-Not having sex with animals and person of same genre(sex)....Clear?
Oh my, sometimes I really think you expect Russia to look like it actually did 100 years ago :) No, Russia is country with quite liberal views on religion and me too, God isn't in book and rules who to sleep with, it's in kindness you bring to other people. Everything else doesn't really matter and I think Sweden realizes it.
Russia liberal views?:-S....So would you sleep with a deer if you would feel atracted to it?God is everywhere Damian,in everything.He made the hole world,you can not exclude him from this.Are your priest so liberal too?
I don't have big experience of communication with priests so can't answer unfortunately.
uffff Damian,are u that swedish...hope not:)...Still haven't answered to the first question
"Russia liberal views?"
Answer - yes, not like Sweden, but yes :)
Actually the first one ws related to the deer:)))=))))
Ah, sure! There's nothing wrong in sleeping with deers, turtles, butterflies or hippopotamus, they can be hot, don't you think?
Sorry but I don't feel the same about it,but this doesn't mean we can't be blogspot friends;I prefer women:)
Really glad for you! Though hippopotamus can be woman as well.

I hope the link works abroad.In here we have person with liberal views,which are not bothered to have sex in front of the webcam.As a coincidience he is also gonna represent us in Eurovision this year....what a scandal.Are u more opened mind than he?:)))
I know about this story, but don't think it's funny enough to pay much attention to it (though he could put that video as backgroung during performance). Story about Blue is much funnier!
We heard about it?That's good ,a lot of publicity comes with it:)
In ESC-community - yes, it's hugely discussed, not negatively, just like OMG-moment.
What ESC community means?Where can I read some disscusions?
I read it on Russian forum only, nothing negative, only those who wanted to see second place as the winner of selection said they won't be against replacing him :)
do you have facebook?Not the swedishstereo facebook,your own?
