"Euphoria" has become a winning song collecting the biggest quantity of Melodifestivalen final votes ever. Right after the final when MF compilation was out - both single and compilation version have become #1 and #2 on iTunes, currently Loreen is #1 in Finland, #3 in Norway and currently climbs up in Denmark (#43). Scandinavia definitely feels "Euphoria" and even non-scnadinavic countries fall for it. You can already listen to the song on the radio in Belarus and Russia. Everyone speaks about Sweden winning Eurovision this year and personally I'm gonna be one of the happiest people in the world if it'll happen as this combination of amazing song and completely unreal artist is one the best things happening with Eurovision for a long time. Congratulations, Loreen! Congratulations, Peter and Thomas! Congratulations, Sweden! You've made the right decision.
Today we have a pack of "Euphoria" mixes released digitally and below you can check one of them. It's made by Alex Moreno and it's quite strong radio-friendly Avicii-breathing club-track.

Blimey that black guy has a fat arse in this one. Hope the producer is kinder with his angles in Baku. As with Cowell if TPTB wanted it beat it would be sooooo easy. .http://swedishstereo.blogspot.com/

lots of mixes of it. Always a good sign as it shows its versatility as a song. having a charismatic performer is icing on the cake. .http://soundcloud.com/stormby/loreen-euphoria-stormby-remix

not sure about that one fll. Plus there's always the risk they nuke Iran just before the final.

I think if the singer was younger, less portly and more attractive, it would be in with a shout.

Spain on 46% 12pts, last time I looked at their poll

This video of the song might appeal to you more.

I think it's a gem. Sod all chance of winning tho.

By:

George Bailey When: 14 Mar 12 23:35

Dire. Like a Rubettes B side from 1974. Still I'd be generous and give her one.

By:

George Bailey When: 14 Mar 12 23:36

just remembered what its a rip off of...Dream Lover.

By:

five leaves left When: 14 Mar 12 23:40

Dream Lover, by who?

It reminds me of someone but can't think who.

There does seem almost an inevitablity about Sweden winning, unless somehow it come across so well in Baku.
Especially with the 2nd favourite being about a tenth the price it should be.

By:

five leaves left When: 14 Mar 12 23:40

it doesn't come across so well**

By:

five leaves left When: 14 Mar 12 23:42

Bobby Darin?

That's hardly a bad thing.

The girl at the start of the 2nd video needs some help with her swing.

Well if its inevitable I'll sit on my 4k green. No point chucking 50s away here and there.

By:

five leaves left When: 15 Mar 12 00:00

I am starting to get that feeling.

If the rehearsals go well I can see it starting under 2.5

Altho people were saying the same about France last year and drip drop the year before.

My 2nd favourite -

George Bailey When: 15 Mar 12 00:04

I thought you were taking a chance laying this one. As above if I had watched the video one more time after it won its heat I'd have got 12s I think. Still can't complain. France I would ignore as a comparator. That was a mockpra song and I was consistent in saying it had no chance. Drip Drop I liked but it didn't have the feel good factor of Sweden nor the same class of performer. I do accept that shocks are much more common now and I'm certainly not counting any chickens.

By:

five leaves left When: 15 Mar 12 00:09

I laid most of them at well over 100%, so not taking any real risk.

By:

George Bailey When: 15 Mar 12 00:13

prefer romania and have thrown some money away at 66s. Longer legs than Jessie J and how DO you get into those tight leather trousers? .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ-QmpP3KYI&feature=related

By:

five leaves left When: 15 Mar 12 00:19

Romania scored 4/10 with me and is a lay to qualify

Zoom - a man of taste :)

By:

Ah Rebecca...the Dancing Brave of specials history. Lovely song; one of her own I suspect? Too subtle for ESC so 10s.

You're probably right.
the whole album is superb, but that song in particular is as good as anything from Adele.
Only a metter of time before she's as big.

By:

George Bailey When: 15 Mar 12 00:39

but don't forget Matt was so much better

...wish she hadn't shagged one of 1D (?) though. reduced her stock for me especially criticising the other 1D shagger. "Mine was 18"

By:

I missed that story.
I'm sure it was all made up...
