Mår illa.

Under tiden sitter jag här och väntar.

Lägger upp länk till intervjun så snart den finns online. Lyssna HÄR. 26:13 ->

Me and my eyebrow, being interviewed.

Busy days!

And I thank you all for your support.
I have received SO many emails, and I have replied to all of them (I hope).
TODA RABA for your feedback.

I was just interviewed by Israeli Channel 1 – it will be aired on Sunday, at 20:00.

Thanks again. I will keep on blogging and doing ”THE RIGHT THING”.

Big love.

KM: Olá-Shalom Eduardo. Before sharing your thoughts about the entries in this year’s Melodifestivalen, let us ask you a few questions!
EC: Okey boy.
KM: What made you fall madly in love with MF?
EC: I do not know if it was another country, I would like it as much. I guess the Swedish music industry is sooo ahead of other countries. Most of the songs are super well produced so it counts when one watches MF. In the end the songs are great (most of them at least).
And Kim, of course.
KM: What could be done better?
EC: Hm. Everything is new to me. I mean, the process of the show, how the votes take place and whatnot. So I am not sure if I can give a clear assessment of improvements. The show seems tight and the between-acts are okey.
KM: Do you think that a show like MF would do well in Brazil?
EC: Well. We had something like that in the 60s and it was a huge hit. But not so sure if the people could vote. I guess it had only a jury. And one of these shows was called Festival Internacional da Canção (FIC). Almost like Melodiefestivalen.
KM: Have you heard any of the 2012 ESC songs, and if so, what are your thoughts?
EC: Yes. But not a lot. Loving the Finnish entry. Pernilla is great.

KM: Now – shoot!
EC: Okey, here goes:

1. Loreen – Euphoria 5/5
Love it. Gave me chills at the first time. Like her voice, the dramatic performance and the beat. Very well produced. My favorite by far. #LoreenTillBaku

2. Carolina Wallin Pérez – Sanningen 5/5
Super love it. Voice, beats and the indie vibe. Toppen! Fav after Loreen.

3. Timoteij – Stormande hav 5/5
I am a Timoteij bitch. Like the beat, voices (not so much the fake instrument playing) and their cuteness. Catchy.

4. Charlotte Perrelli – The Girl 5/5
Didn’t like at first, but then got stuck in my head. But why the screen, girl?

5. David Lindgren – Shout It Out 5/5
Love it! Better than Danny. Surely an underdog. Got some moves!

[The following not necessarily in 100% correct order.]

Danny Saucedo – Amazing 4/5
Danny, oh Danny. If your voice wasn’t so strange in the live act I would give you a 5. Catchy tune though and nice beats. Special points for the performance.

Andreas Lundstedt – Aldrig aldrig 4/5
Very Pet Shop Boys and I like it.

Mattias Andréasson – Förlåt mig 4/5
Catchy and nice beats. Should have gone to the finals.

Lisa Miskovsky – Why Start A Fire 3/5
Catchy, but not ESC material.

Sean Banan – Sean den förste Banan 3/5
The guy is terrible and I would feel very ashamed for Sweden if he went to ESC, but the song is catchy as hell.

Abalone Dots – På väg 3/5
Beautiful melody and I like the three voices together, but nothing special.

The Moniker – I Want To Be Chris Isaak (This Is Just The Beginning) 3/5
Some parts I like, but the vocalist gives me the creeps. Kinda repetitive.

Marie Serneholt – Salt And Pepper 3/5
Like the vibe, the energy, the beat, but at the end it’s just another poppy song.

Ulrik Munther – Soldiers 3/5
Catchy song. I understand that it can turn into a hit all around, but not my cup of tea.

Top Cats – Baby Doll 3/5
I dig the rockabilly vibe, but it sounds like that: just another rockabilly song.

Mimi Oh – Det går för långsamt 3/5
Starts promising, but the chorus is meh.

Love Generation – Just A Little Bit 3/5
Not bad, but nothing spectacular.

Molly Sandén – Why Am I Crying 3/5
Not my cup of tea also, but the drama keeps you in. Can see it turning into a hit.

Hanna Lindblad – Goosebumps 3/5
Hmmmm. Poppy but nothing special.

Axel Algmark – Kyss mig 3/5
I like it but sounds like other things we already know. Kudos for the energy.

Thorsten Flinck & Revolutionsorkestern – Jag reser mig igen 2/5
Crazy dude. Nothing special to me though, but kudos for the drama.

Sonja Aldén – I din himmel 2/5
Good lord almighty! Can we be more tacky? Nej, tack!

Thomas Di Leva – Ge aldrig upp 2/5
Don’t like his voice and the song at all.

Youngblood – Youngblood 2/5
And we are back in the 90s again. No more boy bands, please.

Maria BenHajji – I mina drömmar 2/5
Something weird with her voice. Maybe too nervous. Don’t like the ballad.

Afro-Dite – The Boy Can Dance 2/5
Nice outfits and voices, but too outdated.

OPA! – Allting blir bra igen 2/5
Meh. Don’t even know what to say about it, other than that I didn’t like it.

Lotta Engberg och Christer Sjögren – Don’t Let Me Down 2/5
Cute couple and song, but outdated.

Dead by April – Mystery 1/5
Can I die already? Boring and copy/paste of final 90s, early 00s rock bands like Limp Bizkit. Zzzzzzzz.

Dynazty – Land of Broken Dreams 1/5
NOOOOOOO. Tacky metal bad. Eeew.

Andreas Johnson – Lovelight 1/5
There is enough soft rock in this world. Pass.

Björn Ranelid feat. Sara Li – Mirakel */5
Oh boy oh boy oh boy. I can’t give this song a score. It is so bizarre and unique. Moments of embarrassment and crazyness. Really, WTF, but catchy.

The Brazilian choice:

”Den kristna hjälporganisationen Shevet Achim i Jerusalem hämtar hjärtsjuka barn från Kurdistan och Irak till Israel för operation. Barn som saknar adekvat vård i hemlandet behandlas gratis av israeliska läkare. Organisationen hämtar också regelbundet sjuka palestinska barn från Gaza och Västbanken. Kristna, judar och muslimer arbetar tillsammans under mottot ’ett barn är ett barn och ett hjärta är ett hjärta’.”

Varsågoda.

Favoritscenen:

Idolen och ikonen Alexis Carrington Colby dök upp i säsong 2 och stannade till sista avsnittet, och jag tänkte generöst bjuda på ett par bilder.

Joan Collins i rollen som Alexis – första scenen:

Och sista scenen:

Vilken fantastisk karaktär.
Vilken fantastisk skådespelerska.

‎”Poor Krystle in a life support barely breathing in Switzerland and her devoted husband breathing heavily down that trollop’s neck.”

Så bra att jag var tvungen att lägga upp denna tjusiga replik på youtube.
Joan Collins är underbar; se hur hon tar sats för att leverera repliken med elegans.

Detta är konst! Riktigt fin konst.

Kolla!

Kameramannen och mikrofonmannen!

FATTA! Detta kan alltså hända även i en högklassig supersåpa som Dynastin!

Vid ett senare tillfälle syns ett TV-team som dokumenterar denna hotellbrand, men karlarna ovan ser ju inte ut att tillhöra ett sådant team. Med en sådan mikrofon liksom.

Inget Dynastinrelaterat inlägg är komplett utan en bild på Alexis, så här kommer en. Slutscenen i säsong sex.

Dynastin så här långt
