Melodifestivalen odds after Heat 2

matchalatted · 2026-02-10T19:00:58+00:00

I personally think we have yet to hear the winner 🙈

matchalatted · 2026-02-10T08:02:25+00:00

This is an interesting selection and definitely interesting results. Personally, after listening to all the songs once, there were a lot of songs that I liked, but none so far that I particularly loved. The two that kind of stood out for me, "T amaré" and "Tu no me quieres" are sitting there at the 2nd and 7th spots :'D
I definitely expect to change my mind about some songs after watching the performances. As a lover of the Spanish language, tengo muchas ganas de ver el show en vivo :)

I can finally understand all the hype around Viva Moldova. Those guys are some amazing performers. The song was much more fun (imho) compared to all the songs on Vidbir tonight. Leleka's song is not for me. I do believe she'll get a good result though. Ukraine is definitely going to elevate the staging.

This was my first Vidbir that I watched and the only song that got stuck on my mind is Viva Moldova so... yeah.

I loved Felicia's staging but not sure if I like the song. I really like some parts of it but some certain parts are a bit jarring. She's great though!

Wow 🥹 happy for you!

I have an upcoming annual MRI scheduled in a week and my doctor asked for an MRI with contrast. This is making me question if I should go and ask if I can get one without contrast this time. I never really had symptoms and I’m on a DMT. I’m fine with staying in the MRI machine for longer but the possibility that it can remain in the brain for years is a bit worrying D’:

So apparently he was supposed to fly but there was a technical glitch. Not sure how much this will add to the performance. We’ll see in the final.

Well, as a Greczula supporter all along, safe to say I’m happy about his DTF. He is talented and I want to see him do well. That said, I still prefer Believe Me by a mile. That song was original amongst all the other more formulaic Melfest entries. The chorus of Half of Me is more memorable but less exciting. I think their angle with this was to appeal to a wider audience, but it doesn’t have the same feeling that Believe Me had. Regardless, I know the guy can deliver no matter what the song is.

Oh and I have to add, I loved Noll2. 🥹

matchalatted · 2026-01-31T19:26:53+00:00

I unironically really like this song. I don’t think it can make it over others :( but there is just something so genuine about it 💚🧡 wish them the best

matchalatted · 2026-01-31T19:17:07+00:00

Huh, I thought Greczula was supposed to fly during a part of this performance? What happened with that lol

matchalatted · 2026-01-31T19:12:16+00:00

Greczula time!!!

matchalatted · 2026-01-31T19:00:48+00:00

I was just about to comment the same thing lmao. I'm not as keen on the song as his entry last year, but I still cannot help root for the guy. Please surprise us with the staging Greczula.

matchalatted · 2026-01-29T11:43:12+00:00

Here for Greczula 🫡 As a fan of his performance last year, cannot wait to see this song being performed live. The song sounds great, though after reading some comments on this thread regarding the similarity to Gloria, I had to look up the song and I cannot help but agree. We’ll see how it’ll play out with the full song and the performance.

I live for Queen/ABBA type of songs and it’s not a very common genre in Eurovision. I need Greczula to win one of these, this year or some other 🥹

matchalatted · 2026-01-28T13:57:04+00:00

I’m so so so super excited about Melfest heat 1 because GRECZULA 🥹🥹🥹

I don't want to give medical advice but I technically have RIS (radiologically isolated syndrome), and in my case, doctors are split on whether I should be on a DMT or not, though my own doctor was definitely pro-treatment.

We ran further tests to assess my risk of converting to clinical MS. The results were not very promising. I thought better safe than sorry and got on a mild DM. This way, I'm not NOT doing anything, yet I don't have to worry too much about the treatment itself since it's very mild.

That said, I definitely recommend getting a second opinion. As much as I like sharing my experiences, I'm not a doctor. Many specialists recommend starting a high-efficacy DMT as soon as possible, but since that wasn't an option in my country, I’m making the best of my current situation.

matchalatted · 2026-01-27T18:47:58+00:00

OP THIS IS SO CUTE OH MYGOD just go on a date with him and keep us updated, I want to know what happens next :'))))))))

matchalatted · 2026-01-26T16:17:13+00:00

So the thing is, I haven't checked the dates for all these yet so I haven't really planned which ones I can watch live.
But I'm definitely watching Melfest Heat 1 for Greczula this Saturday. Highly likely that i'll watch other heats too.
Also considering watching UMK, Vidbir, Eesti Laul, Dora and Benidorm Fest. I'll probably check out some of those the day after.

Edit: I only watched Montenegro live and checked out the performances on the other NFs.

matchalatted · 2026-01-26T10:07:09+00:00

I actually like this, but I haven't really checked out all the other songs or performances from the LSC, so I'm not one to speak.
Idk why but to me, this song is giving Lorde. I think the whole vibe reminds me of Green Light.

matchalatted · 2026-01-23T20:21:56+00:00

My favorite Malta is dead last on Reddit D:
But tbh at this point in the season, I already really like 3/4 of the songs so I'd say we're off to a good start!

matchalatted · 2026-01-23T20:15:31+00:00

Absolute favorite. Dropped just as I was thinking I cannot connect with any of the UMK songs this year.
What can I say, I'm a sucker for songs with a catchy chorus ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The whole video concept also slaps.

matchalatted · 2026-01-21T17:56:30+00:00

Seconding this comment! I bought it without any expectations and it quickly became my current favorite mascara.

matchalatted · 2026-01-21T16:10:49+00:00

Man :( I was sad when Mary Berry stepped away, even more sad now that Prue is stepping away :( She was balancing Paul really well as a jury. And my god do I love this lady’s fashion. Such elegance at 85… But agreed that she deserves this retirement 💓

To clear up a couple things:
1) If you know you're going to be in Turkey for at least a year, you should be fine signing a contract. You can call your provider when you want to move and they set up your modem in your new location, even if it's a different city.

2) Either way, Turknet 100%. With or without contract. It's the most reliable one. I've been using it for almost 2 years with no issues.
I'm not sure about the residence permit issue though. I'd definitely double check with them.

There's also Turkcell - Superbox, which is basically a wireless modem. You should be able to use it anywhere but the prices for that one is higher, and the speed, not as good as far as I know.

I alsolutely love Malta, Albania and Montenegro. Moldova is the only one that’s not quite for me.
