On Saturday, many fans will tune in to SVT as Sweden kicks off its national final season. The Swedish broadcaster released today snippets of the songs competing in the first heat. Do they have a potential winner among them?
It is always a big thing when the first clips of songs are released in Sweden. Will Sweden conquer the national final season right from their beginning, or will we get a dull start, which will make some of us look elsewhere for the hidden gems?
On Saturday, the first heat of Melodifestivalen kicks off. Seven songs will compete for two direct spots to the final, and two who will get a second chance in an extra heat.
It will be a song about Patrick Swayze, which opens, and the heat also offers a return from former Eurovision winner Kikki Danielsson, and what about Benjamin Ingrosso, who represented Sweden at the Nordic Junior Eurovision in 2006, and came 5th in last year’s Swedish final. Is 2018 going to be his year? Or will it be Norwegian Kamferdrops, who will run away with the Swedish Eurovision ticket?
There is so much to look forward to on Saturday, and you can start preparing yourself by listening to the snippets released today.
