Thoughts -

Dude.

Sweden.

Fuck you!

For reals?!?!?!?! you failed to recognize the brilliance of "Something In Your Eyes" AND "I Thought it was forever"?!?!?!?!? Really!

I mean "Spring För Livet" and "Oh My God!" are both fine songs, but they are no where near the quality of "Something In Your Eyes" and "I thought it was forever"! I'm shocked and disgusted. I mean, you're Sweden. It's Melodifestivalen. I could have dealt with "Dance Alone" qualifying, but throwing 2 of your best songs out....inexcusable.

Oh well....this makes the final easier i guess....
