Måns Zelmerlöw – Heroes

This song has been compared to a song from last summer by David Guetta, and I can hear the ‘influence’ of David Guetta on the Swedish entry. Despite the fact that it is not very original this song has settled in nicely as the favourite for this years event. I was actually looking forward to hearing this song because it was such a favourite, but after hearing it next to David Guetta, I hope this doesn’t win.

A year ago Måns said that Homosexuality was "avvikelse" to him (which can be translated to "deviation" or “unnatural” in English). He quickly added that there was nothing wrong with it, but the old story still gained traction soon after he was announced as the winner of Melodifestivalen. This was a bad start considering the Eurovision audience.

I think what I hate most about this is that it is another bloody idol contestant and also this was his 3rd attempt to represent Sweden at Eurovision. The song is catchy, but I am going to make the big call can say that the favourite won’t win. I have said that for the last 5 years and have been wrong most times but I was right last year and I may be right again.

Considering the Guetta influence, I am going call this out: you’re (so last) summer
