they won't let me watch that, and although I found an alternative, it was not good quality and poor sound.

[Jahn]

That's flowering great Jahn!
Who are these people?

Well, Jon Henrik is a Same, a Same is the label of Swedish indians of the North. In the beginning of the number Jon  speaks Samish. Then later in the more hot parts he shifts to do a Joik. A Joik is the shaman song, where he uses sounds instead of Words.

The strongest part in this Eurovison song Contest number is in my opinion made by Aninia, the genuine women that lifts the whole
number into something great.

This is the second time that Jon Henrik competes in the Swedish song Contest "Melodifestivalen" The Melody Festival - shortened "The Mello".
Previous contribution by Jon Henrik Fjällgren (Mountain branch) in the 2015 Contest, where he had some success in the final votings.

That is NOT strange - they erase every unofficial video at Youtube - there is only the official videos available by Swedish Televison - SVT.
Please try this official link to see Robins contribution. Now to the final contest (Saturday forthnight) he has changed flowering Beautiful to Frickin' Beautiful. (The Word flowering is banned in ESC).

How is the show going down under, do Australia continue to be a member in the ESC show?

I enjoyed that, but still, I find the symphonic treatment lowers the electricity - Annie tries to build it up, but the atmosphere is against the edginess she seeks.

They won't let me watch Why.

They won't let me watch Why.

Then try this ...

Yes, it was.
This will be our contribution to Ukraina. Thanks to the International jury*.

But, nevertheless this song won most of the Swedish votes. So we are disappointed that this song by Nano didn't win.

*Sweden has a strange system where 50 % of the votes in the final is placed by a international jury (from a top ten of countries in the ESC).

[Jahn]

How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me
Why
Why
I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking
And I've heard it said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides
Why can't you see this boat is sinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out turning inside out
Tell me
Why
Tell me
Why
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears

[Michael]

Apropos the new Movie "The Founder" - about the man who hijacked the Mc'Donalds Brothers fast food business into a worldwide franchise movement, Ray Kroc. By Knopfler 10 years ago ...

My pulse begins to hammer then I hear a voice say:

These boys have got this down ought to be one of these in every town
These boys have got the touch It's clean as a whistle and it don't cost much
Wham! Bam! You don't wait long, shake, fries, patty you're gone
How about that friendly name, heck, every little thing ought to stay the same


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFUSTz3p_WY

"Boom, Like That"
I'm going to San Bernardino ring-a-ding-ding
Milkshake mixers that's my thing now
These guys bought a heap of my stuff
And I gotta see a good thing sure enough now

Oh my name is not Crock, that's Kroc with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style... Boom! like that

Folks line up all down the street
Now I am seeing this girl devour her meat now
And then I get it Wham! as clear as day
My pulse begins to hammer then I hear a voice say:

These boys have got this down ought to be one of these in every town
These boys have got the touch It's clean as a whistle and it don't cost much
Wham! Bam! You don't wait long, shake, fries, patty you're gone
How about that friendly name, heck, every little thing ought to stay the same

Or my name is not Crock, that's Kroc with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Dog eat dog, rat eat rat now
Oh it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style... Boom! like that

You gentlemen ought to expand
You're gonna need a helping hand now
So gentlemen well what about me?
We'll make a little business history now

Oh my name's not Crock, you can call me Ray
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
It's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style... Boom! like that

Well we build it up and I buy 'em out
But man they made me grind it out now
They open up a new place flippin meat
So I do too, right across the street

I got the name but I need the town, sell em' in the end and it all shuts down
Sometimes you gotta be an S.O.B. you wanna make a dream reality
Competition sent em south, if they're gonna drown put a hose in their mouth
Do not pass "Go", go straight to hell
I smell that meat hook smell

Oh my name is not Crock, that's Kroc with a K
Like crocodile but not spelled that way now
Ohh it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Dog eat dog, rat eat rat now
Ohh it's dog eat dog, rat eat rat
Kroc style... Boom! like that

I can tell you more about the Swedish fika (coffee break) later. Here is a great video about "The Swedish Fika"
