🇸🇪 Previewing Melodifestivalen 2022: What will Sweden do?

Music, Society & Culture

National Final season wraps up this weekend as a few countries finalise their entries into Eurovision 2022.

One of the last comps to wrap up is Sweden‘s megafest, Melodifestivalen, which traditionally closes the NF period.

Michael, Liam and Io preview the twelve Melfest songs in the running for a ticket to Turin, which you can watch on SVT Play (or with English commentary) at 6am Melbourne time on Sunday 13 March.

Who’s too literal for Liam?

Who’s too straight for Io?

Who’s too so-so for Michael?
