is this a sign of whats going to happen tonnight that anna will win and tiomoeij second i really do hope its the otherw ay round
I'm sorry, but Anna Bergendahl? Why is that being tipped to do so well? She stands there in a boring dress (with tights and TRAINERS?!) singing one of the most boring songs I think I have ever heard? I'm sorry, but I hate the song, and I really hope it DOESN'T win tomorrow ..
GO ERIC or TIMOTEIJ !!!!!
Pernilla Wahlgren looks like Shrek too.......
ROFLROFLROFLROFLOFL!
This comment made my day!
please not timoteij - we cant have a group named after a shampoo that makes your hair fall out and scalp itch !! Pernilla Wahlgren looks like Shrek too.......
For me it would be a giant step in the right direction!
All the Swedish entries from 2005 onwards have been HORRIBLE! And yes, that includes Carola too, no matter if she achieved a Top 5 position.
For me without Sweden, especially Carola this decade will be nothing special!
My choice is:
#1 Salem
#2 Timoteij
#3 Anna Bergendahl
All the others are a total waste of time. From Idol-like crap (Manboy, Unstoppable) to dreadful ballads more suitable for a funeral (We can work it out, Hollow) and some dated schlager (Jag vill om du vågar) that will bomb if sent to Oslo. I hope Swedes are gonna vote wisely for, at least, one year. All the Swedish entries from 2005 onwards have been HORRIBLE! And yes, that includes Carola too, no matter if she achieved a Top 5 position.
I dont agree with u Jim Sid. Sweeden did not choose wise the last couple of years. I hope they do tomorrow night. ANNA is the best choice.
All I'm saying is Kom, Kom, Kom... 
Timoteij will get my vote if they will win
Marko,
Doesn't matter what country she represents. I don't hate or vote for countries. I said I was excited about her song from the beginning because I liked her voice and saw her in Idol, but the song was a big disappointment for me. It's very average and boring. 
I don't like any songs in the MF final. Salem's song is OK and would end up in the "I like" category, lol. The ones I liked most are out.

But what do you have against Anna's song that much! I understand for Timoteij, Pernilla, Alcazar, NEO etc. But for Anna I don't understand! 
You will probably have her song in TOP 10 if she participate for another country!
What an awful chart is all I can say... No wonder I never follow hitlists.
Timotej all the way
aunt Sara
You try to show me the right way all the time it seems!
But I can't chose between family Wahlgren and our family! lol
Please Sweden, don't choose Anna Bergendahl, god this Eurovision will become more boring
@ Thanasis
The 3rd semifinal heat in Melodifestivalen was Timoteij's debut stage.
I have only one question: Were Timotej well known in Sweden prior to the Melodifestivalen? Because if they weren't their success is even bigger!
@sara: Yo sis! missed ya!
Yeah i know, we are an island of sanity in a sea of schlager tackyness
gah i sooo dont want any kom kom kom near me
TK:
Hii bro! Long time noe seen 
*hugs* (I've been on a "holiday"
Seems like the whole "family" wants Salem (you, Stine, Marky, pattee, Marko (hehe) and myself). We have good taste I must say, hehe
Darin would be great if there were no ballads.
Sweden have the big chance with that finalists , and they should select Eric or Timoteij,i think.
Anna and Darin would not be a good choice.
Personally there is only one choice and it is SALEM! It's the only real song here and the only one that could chart outside of Sweden
If he doesnt win then anna is a decent choice. The rest are just too lame for words..
And please no Timoteij... this is just hideous.. no other word for this... and seriously this will flop, worse than malena and her man voice
GOOO Timoteij!
But the juries will most likely kill their chances 
If not Timoteij, then Anna! The only other song that is good enough in this final. Anna also has the only actual good ballad in this MF final with sooo many ballads
And Timoteij has actuallt the only good uptempo
so it's either Timoteij or Anna for Sweden... the rest are not worthy!
@Kevy kev
I did no such thing Timoteij-lover! *shakes fist*
u got ur words mixed up stine
you mean:
salem for the bin! timoteij ftw!
Actually i believe these are the only 2 songs that can score high for Sweden!
Take Elins Lanto advice, not money money money, although that is handy, but doctor doctor
I personally think the only way Sweden will get an decent result from the songs in the MF final would be Salem, it's fresh modern and quirky, and completely different in ESC this year, whereas the rest would either get forgotten in averageness, or stand out as utter ESC lameness, which could not turn out positive, like it might for NL... so choose Salem, otherwise Marky will not be happy...
@Kevo
Oh Paaalease, you expect nothing less of me
Salem FTW, Timoteij for the bin !
