Moopyfestivalen 2021: Heat 3 + 4

[Haiku Rewrites]

MOOPYFESTIVALEN 2021
​

Hello, everyone! It's been a while.

Right, let's get this back on track!

6 months ago, we saw JessAnn and Kadiatou prove that you don't have to be a fashionista or charismatic performer to succeed, and that Moopy stands for Dotter and 90 throwbacks that are actually from the 80s. Who else will join these four in the final?

Anyway, onwards to 2021! Welcome back to Moopyfestivalen 2021!

We'll be keeping with allocating 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, and 0 points in each semi-final. This afternoon, we focus on Semi-Finals 3 & 4.

Semi-Final 3:

Melodi #1 - Charlotte Perrelli: "Still Young"




Melodi #2 - Emil Assergård: "Om allting skiter sig"




Melodi #3 - Klara Hammarström: "Beat of Broken Hearts"




Melodi #4 - Mustach: "Contagious"




Melodi #5 - Elisa: "Den du är"




Melodi #6 - Alvaro Estrella: "Bailá Bailá"




Melodi #7 - Tusse: "Voices"

Bizarrely I was just wondering last night which my favourite MF song from this year had been, and realised that this never finished!

Closing voting for Heat 3 soon (09:30 BST tomorrow morning) and I will present results for this heat early. There's a clear top 2 here, it was quite close for the last AC spot though a gap since built.

Heat 4 on the other hand is quite close and would be good to get a few more voters here so Heat 4 deadline extended to 21:30 GMT on Sunday 17th October 21:00 BST, with results right after.

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

off to sleep but final extension has been made to deadlines, make sure to vote vote vote as I will conclude these heats tomorrow!

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

Paging any last minute voters for Heat 4!

 

[RJN]

And we're all so proud of Efraim Leo for holding back the tears so well

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

OK, let's get some results going!

Vi har ett resultat för Deltävling 3!!!

Anyway goodbye to this toxic waste of a band/song, see you never.

Retiring in 6th place, though getting considerable more love from Moopy than the Swedish televoters...

Melodi #5 - Elisa: "Den du är"

62 Points

A brave effort from young(?) Elisa but not even TWO KEYCHANGES and channelling her inner Shirley Clamp could get her further in the competition. Farväl och tack!

Now, let's find out our first qualifier...

The first song moving on to the Final is...

Melodi #1 - Charlotte Perrelli: "Still Young"

Sweden's Melodifestivalen Queen of Schlager* reigns triumphant again!

(* disclaimer: the title of Melodifestivalen Queen of Schlager has been contested and challenged by Carola, Lena Philipsson, Shirley Clamp and Lina Hedlund. Velvet also filed a motion for this but was swiftly rejected within 30 seconds, the time it also took Swedish televoters to reject her).

Now, before we get our second DTF, let's find out someone who is going to Andra Chansen!


The first song moving on to the Andra Chansen is...

Melodi #7 - Tusse: "Voices"

I'm not sure how actually surprising this result instead of DTF is if I'm being honest. Did Moopy ever really actually warm to this?

I can never remember how it goes but I don't dislike it I guess

 

[D5K]

I really liked Voices at MF, and then gradually cooled on it during Eurovision.

Melodi #3 - Klara Hammarström: "Beat of Broken Hearts"

Klara lives to fight it out another day in the Final!

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

So that leaves Emil Assergård and Alvaro Estrella to battle it out for that remaining Andra Chansen spot!

Will Moopy pick Emil's energetic happy-clappy peppy peasant rock?

Or the Alvaro's timewarp tribute to breezy 2000's Latin pop?

The results were fairly consistent throughout in this heat. At one point Emil was briefly 4th but dropped back down to 5th and never recovered.

Between the two of them, Charlotte & Klara received 12 sets of 12 points!

Melodi #2 - Lovad: "Allting är precis likadant"
Melodi #3 - Efraim Leo: "Best of Me"
Melodi #4 - The Mamas: "In The Middle"

Let's start by getting rid of the first no-hoper of this heat, shall we?

In sista plats we have...

Melodi #5 - Sannex: "All Inclusive"

20 Points

An inclusive speedy exit for Sannex! The highest score they could muster up from voters was a 4 pointer.

 

[Iguana]

I really don't remember that All Inclusive song at ALL, even when I watched back earlier today!

 

[Hak]

They didn't do the song justice

 

[Alex]

I really don't remember that All Inclusive song at ALL, even when I watched back earlier today!

I just remember it was AWFUL

 

[Penelope]

The worst 'fun 4 Sweden' entry ever. Actually agog they're professional entertainers.

Next to leave us in 6th place...

Melodi #2 - Lovad: "Allting är precis likadant"

62 Points

A nice enough ballad that would've probably have done well in a Portugal National Final but unfortunately for Lovad, Melfest viewers and Moopy are a completely different demographic.

 

[RJN]

I was between Lovad and Sannex for my 0 and 2 points, so its good to see everyone else agreed

 

[RJN]

I ended up giving no points to Lovad btw, because I couldn't remember the melody even immediately after listening to it
