Comments:
42 - Utter tasteless rubbish.
41 - Annoying and trashy as hell.
40 - Sorry, this is just bad.
39 - Trashy and heard a million times before.
38 - Stupid lyrics. Kind of annoying.
37 - Extremely silly.
36 - It's an improvement, yet the lyrics are still absurd.
35 - Would be nicer with better lyrics and a less slutty performance.
34 - Somehow makes me laugh. At least is kind of witty. Though musically crap.
33 - Nice voice, pleasant song... I felt asleep, sorry.
32 - Not bad, just leaves me completely cold.
31 - Dated song, but the guy looks incredibly hot and has a sexy voice.
30 - Decent effort, but lacks a hook.
29 - Trashy but immensely catchy.
28 - Beautiful but too typical.
27 - Definitely a grower. Quite pleasant.
26 - Just nice. Boasty and over-the-top, as this country usually is.
25 - Music-wise this should be much lower. But then again, they're just adorable...
24 - Mellow and unpretentious, I hope it does well (yeah, keep on dreaming...)
23 - The revamped version lacks energy, but it's still a decent effort.
22 - Amazing voice - average song. Oh, and beautiful eyes.
21 - Quite sweet song, just lacks some wow factor.
20 - Funky and upbeat. Would be higher if it was in the native language.
19 - Well-produced but lacking originality.
18 - A grower and one to be watching out for. Potential winner.
17 - Such a pleasant ballad. Shame the revamped version is not as good as the original.
16 - I usually don't listen to this kind of music, yet this has me hooked on to it. Bold and daring.
15 - Hottest guy of the year? Strong song, yet lacking originality.
14 - Best voice of the year and a very original effort.
13 - Repetitive, but catchy and well-produced.
12 - One of the few cases in which the English version surpasses the original. Powerful combination and lovely instrumentation. Potential winner.
11 - Lovely unpretentious ballad. Thanks for bringing back Swedish to ESC!
10 - Vibrant. We can expect a brilliant performance. Potential winner.
09 - I love the way this builds up and how sweet the language sounds.
08 - Very well-built and with a brilliant instrumentation.
07 - Quirky, original and with a potentially astonishing performance. Potential winner.
06 - Best rock ballad of the year. Amazing voice and powerful instruments. Best entry of this country ever.
05 - Best Balkan ballad of the year. Sweet singer, mellow voice, and very intelligent composition. Pure beauty.
04 - Yet another precious ballad, with no big pretentions and a lovely instrumental base. I wouldn't mind to see it winning, though it's unlikely.
03 - Yay! Some alternative rock at last! Most original song of the year and definitely one of the most intelligent. It will do better than many think.
02 - The boy's simply to die for. There should be more songs like this one at Eurovision: radio-friendly, intelligent, yet not boasty nor showy.
01 - I hate to have the same favourite as almost everyone, yet there are many reasons why this is the hot favourite to take the trophy home. It has all: a fresh, well-produced, catchy melody, a mesmerishing and original performance and a charismatic performer with fantastic vocal abilities.
