The are opening the finals and we are opening the finals with a BANG !! Also , don´t hate on US for sending what we do best .. quality pop music !! That comment is getting old ..
Really beautiful melody, very modern song, high-quality choreography, really skilled and distinctive singers whose singing sounds really easy and crystal clear. They have their own style that stands out from the rest. There is also genuine joy and happiness that belongs to music.
Quality !!!! Sweden 🇸🇪 I love you !!!! Amazing act !! Amazing opening act !!! Just amazing overall!!! If I were the jury I would give you at least 300 points 🇸🇪🏆
I love our entry. It really screams Sweden. It has our typical Swedish identity like it or not. Who cares if the singers are norweigan, when it comes to their carrers they prefer Sweden. I understand why. And it really doesn't matter so much where it ends up in the final. But this is a great host entry imo.
I highly recommend that people listen to a high quality digital version with high quality headphones... the layers of sound in this song is truly mind-boggling. Beautiful production. Very proud and relieved that we are sending this to the Eurovision this year... as someone said... it's the full package - song, lyrical hook, and stage set that is insane. Do we have a chance this year?... Lots of ballads and semi-rock stuff this year (and the usual foetuses-in-WonderBras that think they can win on looks rather than talent)... Marcus and Martinus definitely stand out from the crowd right now.
I think it is beautiful that they got their first international fame in Sweden as teenagers and now they are going to represent Sweden in Eurovision as adults! They are very charming in interviews which is going to make people love them and they got a huge fanbase outside of Scandinavia as well. It is funny that we got to host Eurovision and we welcome everyone with our cute (basically adopted) Norweigan twins haha.
Thank you, I'm not the only one. This is all staging (which is very cool), but the song itself has nothing, no melody, no chorus, no soul, no hook, nothing. I bet AI could do this beat.
I love the song and the performance but I'm a bit worried about them performing first in the final. It's a really good opening entry though but I fear it will be forgotten. But maybe I'm overexaggerating. Melovin from Ukraine got 119 points from the televote when being first in the running order so it's probably not impossible to get a decent televoting score, especially if the voting lines are open from the start.
I agree with Kate!. Ås a former metalhead i became prdtty nostalgic when i heard on social media that nu-metal ( popular between the early 90's to early 2000's was popular among Gen Z , surprisingly young wome
As a Swede I’m really not a fan of this song but on the other hand there weren’t really any other “strong” songs in this year’s Melodifestivalen. It’s fine entry but nothing special.
Really like this, exactly the type of music I want and expect from Sweden, I have it in my top 10. This song is getting so much undeserved hate just because Sweden is sending it
3:40 - I genuinely want to agree with this if it were not for the fact that majority of songs in the finals of recent Melfest editions are written by more or less the same set of songwriters every year in different combinations per song.
Okay then, props to the stage production, but I don't like the song at all. I would have preferred Medina or Cazzi Opeia. I'm Swedish, but this year was the first year I didn't vote in the Mello final. I'm also a bit depressed that The Roop didn't win the Lithuanian final. Their song (Simple joy) was lovely! I wish they would compete in Melodifestivalen.
The song is decent catchy pop, the performance from the twins is great, the staging is ridiculous. For me, though, it’s another one that falls too much on the music video side of video vs stage show. That can either be very successful (Loreen last year) or a massive flop (Benjamin Ingrosso) so it’s a tough one to call.
No Julia I strongly disagree that this is perfect representation for Swedish songs. Sweden have a vibrant rich music fauna. This is just Mello music. Loreen I am totally fine with. But Benjamin Ingrosso was a nightmare and I think this will do better by the the public than Benjamin… but still. It is because mellfest always gets kind of mellow in a way. And exciting songs like Circus X, and artsist like Fröken Snusk or Smash Into Pieces who all produce solid performance in a not classical Mello way gets cast aside. Simple because Swedes have somewhat alligned to the international jury (since they are a part of choosing the winner) and also the kind of right balance song for a family entertainment. Since Mellfest is Fredagsmys on a saturday for the family.
the music Benjamin Ingrosso does nowadays would be much better to send. So if he wants to come back to mello with that, then I can forget about last time... in my opinion, that song was very unpleasant.
The 3 minute rule kind of cuts the legs of this song. It needed to be 30 seconds or 1 minute longer so i could build up to a bang instead of a whimper.
It’s way better on tv than live. I was at the final and if you didn’t sit right by the stage then you didn’t se anything. We had to look at the big screens that showed how it looked on tv because the stage was just full of blinkning lights and stage prop. Also, people saying this is very Swedish. It is, and that’s why us Swedes are sooooo boring!
Great staging but the song is so basic. I’m getting bored of our melodifestivalen because we always send the same pop songs. I was hoping for Medina this time
I think they would have won in Norway, They would probablly got every 12 from the jury, an they are also very popular so i dont think would have done that bad in tele vote either
This is just a semi-copy of the 90’s dance floor. To many 12 years voting, for them this is new but… no. I heard it before. Yes it’s good, for the floor but in a competition that is about melody… I hope not. We can do much better. It’s time for all the old farts who rewrite the same f…ing song year after year after year…
They seem like lovely kids, but something's not connecting here. As mentioned by a couple of you, the song's written right down to a formula, and everything about the (albeit impressive) performance seems extremely calculated, which unfortunately isn't a great thing. Doesn't feel genuine or authentic like some of other entries which spark joy. And if staging is the highlight, it reminds me a lof of Benjamin Ingrosso's in 2018 which finished near dead last in the final's televote, because as Danie points out, it removes the crowd and the joy they can bring.
*WHAT DO YOU THINK OF SWEDEN'S ENTRY FOR EUROVISION 2024?*
I was in Friend Arena .. and the crowd went WILD when they performed !! Correct winner
the crowd doesn’t make the song better 🤣
I'm from Finland and will absolutely vote Marcus and Martinus. Good luck Sweden❤
The are opening the finals and we are opening the finals with a BANG !! Also , don´t hate on US for sending what we do best .. quality pop music !! That comment is getting old ..
Jag håller med Selma. Jag är sååå glad att de VILL representera Sverige!!!! ....De är så fina reprentanter för Sverige genom sina personligheter!
By far the best staging out of all the national final winners.
Love this song so much it’s so catchy and good and banger sure top 5 matriaal in the final 12 points from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 to sweden 🇸🇪
I was at friends for the gf live- IT WAS FUCKING INSANE, SO FUCKING WILD, we knew it was going to win based on the sheer volume of the cheerings
My favorite 🔥 12 points from Poland 🇵🇱❤️🇸🇪🇳🇴
And opening the grand final too ;)

If I was Swedish I would be so proud of these boys. Great work. Great reaction too.
I prefer the staging to the song.
And for the song, I prefer the production to the lyrics by a country mile.

And again..Sweden holding a MasterClass in ECS ♥

It's all so nice, so professional, so visual... if only there were also a song...
Thank you, I'm not the only one. This is all staging (which is very cool), but the song itself has nothing, no melody, no chorus, no soul, no hook, nothing. I bet AI could do this beat.
i love the Norwegian twins performance! they will definitely get my votes from Germany!
This is really Sweden in a nutshell ❤x from a Swede 🎉
Omg, Danie has all four seasons of LEXX on dvd.
I love the song and the performance but I'm a bit worried about them performing first in the final. It's a really good opening entry though but I fear it will be forgotten.

Sweeden 🎉🎉🎉🎉#1

It's a Swedish song same sort off song they been sending for the past 10 years if it anit broken don't fix it the staging sells the song 100%
I am forgetting this song already while I am listening to it....
I prefer Markus & Martinus' song of last year more, but this one isn't half-bad.
Okay then, props to the stage production, but I don't like the song at all. I would have preferred Medina or Cazzi Opeia. I'm Swedish, but this year was the first year I didn't vote in the Mello final.
I'm also a bit depressed that The Roop didn't win the Lithuanian final. Their song (Simple joy) was lovely! I wish they would compete in Melodifestivalen.
My douze points easily go to them!
Es ist Safe Song ! Good Stage but not something unique

I hope there are also very different music styles and songs popular in Sweden than this kind of song. Nevertheless the stage show looks great
Well- it looks good...
I like this song: my vote is 7 / 10
Does anybody know if they can change a little about the perfomance line vocals or instrumentals?
Albania change whole song lyrics to english so maybe idk
Not anymore. March 11 was the last day you could change. The final versions must be sent to EBU that date
It’s way better on tv than live. I was at the final and if you didn’t sit right by the stage then you didn’t se anything. We had to look at the big screens that showed how it looked on tv because the stage was just full of blinkning lights and stage prop.
Also, people saying this is very Swedish. It is, and that’s why us Swedes are sooooo boring!
Great staging but the song is so basic. I’m getting bored of our melodifestivalen because we always send the same pop songs. I was hoping for Medina this time
🥰💙💛
I think they would have won in Norway, They would probablly got every 12 from the jury, an they are also very popular so i dont think would have done that bad in tele vote either
Shame that Marius & Martinus didn't win last year with 'Air'. So much better than 'Unforgettable'!!
Loreen with 'Tattoo' won, :(
Top-5, it's a generic mash-up of various EDM club tracks.
its not bad but when i saw how the crowd went wild with Medina, i wish they would go instead.
Did Swedish House Maffia make this song? 🎧 listen to Greyhound 😉💛💙
6/10 3/10 for the song and 9/10 for the performance. Its an instant skip for me.
Justice for Dotter, she din't deserved last place, Sweden don't deserved Dotter. Congratulations to Marcus & Martinus
It just wasn’t a strong song from her this year.
But she did.
First
This is just a semi-copy of the 90’s dance floor. To many 12 years voting, for them this is new but… no. I heard it before. Yes it’s good, for the floor but in a competition that is about melody… I hope not. We can do much better.
It’s time for all the old farts who rewrite the same f…ing song year after year after year…
Naaa, they putted so much effort for the visual and both the song and the vocal weren’t so good- quite boring eventually
As a swede I was just bored by melodifestivalen this year. One of the weakest years in a while
But to be fair it feels like svt decided to leave out a lot of applicants because we cant afford to win 2 years in a row lol
very good staging but very mid & boring song
maria sur robbed !!
The most bland and average host entry
Same with your comment.
More like "Very forgettable"

The song is average. There were much better songs but this staging sets this song apart. It's unreal
Interesting show song boried
Good song but forgettable
I'm afraid Sweden will not win Eurovision this year!
Crap track🇸🇪
