We have have entered the period of Eurovision Song Contest again. Week after week we are feed with music that makes me wanna throw up. The song only center around love, peace and understanding. Of course they are all worth striving for, but God, the music around it are killing me. The thing about the Swedish part of the competition is that we take it so seriously. We really want to win. We even have a jury to make our songs more international in the rest of Europe. There purpose is only to tell the voters that you voted wrong. It is better to dump the voters and let the jury choose so we can win everything and let the voters vote for the other countries.
The funny thing about this years competition is that I begin to understand why we don't do so well anymore. We are unimaginative. The songs are not new. We copy and paste everything. Last Saturday we had at fourth place H.E.A.T., a rock group. At the moment I was busy clearing Chrono Trigger, but the intro riff made me lock up. Mostly because I recognized it from Ronnie James Dio's song Caught in the Middle from the Holy Diver album. Point is that that song is the second worst song from that album (not that it is bad, the album is kinda good and the song above average, but they can't possibly beat that). Onward to the next song (don't remember order or number) which was Markoolio with a refrain taken from Disney's Lion King Can You feel the Love Tonight. He is not an Elton John. Last song I remember is Amy Diamond (don't know why I remember that one). That song sounds very familiar. I don't know if it is some special song or if it sounds like all her other songs. The best song was definitly Doin' the Omoralisk Schlagerfestival" in the break with the history of the Swedish competition at home.
