Just as the debate around the first semi-final was dying down, it was time to do it all over again in the second semi-final, arguable the stronger of the two.
In an announcement today SVT presented next Thursdays interval act for the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song contest. The interval act, called "Swedish pop Voices", will feature the two swedish pop stars Darin & Agnes singing a medley with some of their greatest hits.
The popular show Allsång på Skansen will be aired on SVT on Tuesdays between 26 June - 14 August. The program will include performances from many Melodifestivalen stars. Here we find the most recent Eurovision winner Loreen, former winners Herreys, Agnes, Molly Sandén, Björn Ranelid, Darin, Sarah Dawn Finer, Thorsten Flinck and Tomas Ledin.
St. Lucias Day is one of the most popular and beloved celebrations throughout Scandinavia and the Baltics. The day marks the introduction to Advent, and Swedish broadcaster SVT have decided to pull out all the stops this year, bringing us a spectacular programme.
Now the Melodifestivalen journey is coming to an end. Tomorrow 10 acts will battle for the spot as the Swedish representative in Oslo. EuroVisionary attended the dress rehearsal on Friday night to try to find out what’s new with the acts and take the pulse on the artists.
We now know the result of the four semi finals, and boy was I wrong in my predictions. I made the huge mistake of thinking that the viewer’s would vote exactly like they did last year. Then they voted all the big stars through to the final. But this year something has happened. The big question is what?!
After two weeks of disappointments the expectations was high on today’s Swedish semi final. There had been a lot of rumors going around that this line up was the strongest so far. And it was without a doubt, an exciting evening. EuroVisionary attended the press conference to take the pulse on the contestants.
After two days with rehearsals in the arena with only a few reporters in the audience it was finally time for a real dress rehearsal on Friday night. This is also the first time we get a preview if the viewer’s will like the acts or not. EuroVisionary attended the dress rehearsal and was a little bit surprised about the audience response.
A new day has arrived in Gothenburg and once again the reporters are gathered in the arena to watch the rehearsals. As oppose to yesterday the artists will rehears with their actual clothes today. EuroVisionary was there to cover the rehearsals.
