Hello everyone! National finals season wraps up tonight, and we are closing our Team Reviews with the Eurovision titan itself: Sweden! Six written autopsies detailing why we our motley crew of article gremlins like or dislike certain Swedish finalists. Each editor has submitted a review for each of the 12 finalists with a score out of Highest percentage wins the ranking.

Be an adult and get used to it. While listening to the song, you get the idea that this should perhaps be far more emotional in sound, along with those lyrics, but unfortunately, none of that is felt while hearing the song. It aims for that perfection, but sacrifices everything that could make the song feel far more personal.
Definitely better than his song controversial opinion, I know. All I will say on the matter is that his pants are much better this time around. The vocals here are on point, and the staging is excellent in its simplicity and uniqueness. The song is⦠plain. Total : Excuse my dirty mind! This song, is just absolutely ridiculous lyrically, and the peak of country-pop. Is Dolly Style the most talented group in the contest? Well, no. But do they have the best vocals in the contest?
But do they have the most radio-friendly song in the contest? Do they have the song that is the most ready to win a jury vote? Are they a televote friendly song? Did they even place top 2 in their heat? But will they get any points beyond the age group? I am surprised this made it to the final. Listen to those whiplashes in the background. Sweden will never give us something funny will they?
That being said, this is definitely not something I would associate with Sweden at the contest and automatically endears me to it, if only slightly. The stage show is colourful and fun, the song is catchy and not unpleasant to have stuck in your head, and the girls have a great stage presence. Better luck next time.
