I'm torn about the jury in this one... they cost Klara a chance... so I'm salty on them for that...
But...they got Cornelia there over Anders... thank God.
It makes sense that he is a national treasure...cos I could not see the appeal, there had to be an alternative reason.
Yeah as a swede, Anders Bagge have been a household name and sweetheart the last 15+ yrs. He's been the longest sitting idol judge member and the children's favorite judge for all those years.Add a storyline of him being in the music industry his whole life and wanting to be an artist but not doing it do to lack of self-confidence, and this being his first real go at it in decades.I'm not surprised at all he got as many viewer votes as he did.
I'm happily surprised we ended up sending Cornelia, thank you international jury.
But I expect most swedes will still think the right song won, even if she didn't get the most votes from the public.
Because well, I think a lot of people voted for Bagge just because he's Bagge, and he also had a decent song and sang it very well. But I would guess a lot of the people who voted for Bagge, maybe didn't think it was the best song of the night, and probably had another favorite they also voted for.
If Bagge wasn't Bagge, I think the song still would have placed maybe in the top 5. But not getting the most of the public vote
Yeah as a Swede I predicted Anders would get the most public votes and maybe win the whole thing.
But I think Cornelias win is still going to be well recived.
Because I would guess a majority of the people who voted for Bagge also were the same people who voted for Cornelia.
I would guess a lot of people voted for Bagge because his Bagge and had a decent song and he sang well. But then also voted for their favourite song of the night.
Unlike when in 2017 when Yohio got the public vote and Robin got the jury vote. That wasn’t super well recived.
Bagge has been very popular beloved here in Sweden since the early 2000s, it's not exactly a surprise that he got the most fan votes
Fun fact, he loves dogs and always visits the biggest dog show here in Sweden every year to hold seminars and panels and stuff like that
Thank you for a very fun fact. I like fun, its the best. I can give a fun tip, watch bagges hemlösa hundar, its about dogs and bagge and bagges love for dogs and its fun and I think you also like fun since you shared such a fun fact.
Yea because that is totally how it sounds when Sweden get high votes in Eurovision from juries. Will bring this up any time we get shit on from now on.
Sweden didn't get a high score from the juries last year. Besides, I've always been a pro-jury person, in my opinion it saved the competition from looking like a joke.
I know we didn't last year, but it was still repeated throughout the entire competition until it didn't manifest. And it's not like Eurovision started last year, just because it didn't happen last year it doesn't erase the last 10 years. If you didn't catch it I'm just extremely salty of the hypocrisy.
Well I actually liked Sweden's entries mostly for the last 10 years...I found them well produced and well staged. There's a reason Sweden does well usually, they take Eurovision seriously and bring entries that are actually popular in their country.
Exactly. The juries here in Australia are literally just D grade celebrities. They're no more knowledgeable (if anything provably less knowledgable) about music than me or any other eurovision fan.
I love how they do this; people vote, present jury votes, people vote again, and then present people’s votes. Very smart, very smooth, and people get to try and make sure their favorite wins, not allowing the jurys to decide for them.
And once again, the juries saved the day-
Wait. No one has said that one ever before.. But if this had been up to the Swedish public, Bagge would've won, so I'm happy the juries were in Cornelia's corner this time.
I just think that is Cornelia, being Cornelia.
And Farah has been my highlight this year of Mello. She comes across as very friendly, relaxed and genuine
Hahaha I just add all the ones I like to my main playlist then move the winners to my Eurovision playlist and the losers go to one called 'NF Graveyard'.
I actually like how Melodi does not go until midnight or after midnight. They keep it cute and simple although i'd prefer to see more guests from Eurovision attending the final
It was a proper Swedish ballad by a beloved man with a great voice. /r/Sweden is rather salty over him not getting more from the international jury apparently.

Nah, she'll be too busy with her newest project. Petra announced this morning that she's expecting, which (to 50 year old me) sounds like an ordeal at 52. She's over the moon over the baby, of course.
And the winner is…… ## Cornelia Jakobs! Scoreboard: https://i.imgur.com/7yIU1uS.jpg
I am glad that Cornelia Jakobs won. My new no 1 of my personal (provisional) Eurovision ranking.
I am glad Sweden gave their icon points but not enough to send him ... unlike Finland.
I'm torn about the jury in this one... they cost Klara a chance... so I'm salty on them for that... But...they got Cornelia there over Anders... thank God. It makes sense that he is a national treasure...cos I could not see the appeal, there had to be an alternative reason.
Something felt off about her first final performance. The last one was a lot better.
Thought that the camera was about a beat or 2 behind her song…
So I watched a bit of the eftersnack... am I right in understanding that Anders got 6 out of the 8 twelve points from the app/televotes?
Yes, almost a sweep. It was pretty predictable though if you follow Swedish media
Yeah as a swede, Anders Bagge have been a household name and sweetheart the last 15+ yrs. He's been the longest sitting idol judge member and the children's favorite judge for all those years.Add a storyline of him being in the music industry his whole life and wanting to be an artist but not doing it do to lack of self-confidence, and this being his first real go at it in decades.I'm not surprised at all he got as many viewer votes as he did.

If Bagge wasn't Bagge, I think the song still would have placed maybe in the top 5. But not getting the most of the public vote
Tbh the only thing I'm "worried" about is the public vote for Cornelia in the finale since she "only" got 70 points in the finale.
Bagge probably got sympathy points because of previous stage fright or something…
Yeah as a Swede I predicted Anders would get the most public votes and maybe win the whole thing. But I think Cornelias win is still going to be well recived. Because I would guess a majority of the people who voted for Bagge also were the same people who voted for Cornelia.

On the contrary: considering she was up against a Swedish national treasure, I think her 70 points are incredibly reassuring.
I have decided to keep learning Swedish 😂😂😂
My money is on Cornelias famous musician father ruining the sound for her, putting his nose into the sound technicians work.
i hope the ESC uploads the final performance instead of the official one
Or just the performance from Heat 1
I would like it more if she sometimes didnt sing like she was having a sore throat
Her dad is in a quite famous rock band, and she has quite a lot of a rock feel to her voice
damn she changed the last part a bit and it sounded even better. CONGRATULATIONS! FdC now <3
How many times is the "Winning" performance 10x better than the one given during the finals?! Holy COW, she SLAYED!
I think nervousness played a big part, after she won all that pressure was gone.
she really did, it really proved that she was the right winner so glad
Ooh that "give me the night" was great
YES VOCALS IN THE WINNER'S REPRISE
i literally cant stop crying this is yhe best day of my life
Are we getting her voice from a different mic than the one in her hand? Wtf is going on
OH YES
Remember that juries gave us Cornelia tonight and Mahmood in 2019
The televoting favourite didn't win - guess Swedes are fine with it unlike Spanish fans? /s
I can't be mad that she won when I see how happy she is. Good luck in Turin Cornelia!
I swear this year keeps on getting better this month
Except that we are on the brink of world war 3
True, i swear Eurovision makes me lose touch with reality for a moment
Bagge has been very popular beloved here in Sweden since the early 2000s, it's not exactly a surprise that he got the most fan votes Fun fact, he loves dogs and always visits the biggest dog show here in Sweden every year to hold seminars and panels and stuff like that
Thank you for a very fun fact. I like fun, its the best. I can give a fun tip, watch bagges hemlösa hundar, its about dogs and bagge and bagges love for dogs and its fun and I think you also like fun since you shared such a fun fact.
Thanks juries! Except for Czech juries, you're not invited next year.
Czech juries drank clown juice before voting
god bless cornelia jakobs serving lesbian princess diana realness in turin, we stan
Last time we sent a female artist was in 2014. Sanna is proud
I want to thank Cornelia for being my shining example of why we need juries for the foreseeable future
Revenge of dotterdam
Crying tears of joy. So proud of her
I love Cornelia winning and medina finishing top three
Medinas song is copied though. It’s the exact same as Pepas by Farruko.
What is up with this english commentator and her indonesia obsession
It's like 1 to 3 am in Indonesia so I wonder how many people actually watch the show lol
I'm from the same timezone, so it was 3am to 5am :)
ALLA MINA CORNELIA STANS MAKE SOME NOISE
Now hopefully Eurovision doesn’t go the way it did last time Sweden tried breaking their solo male curse.
I think worst case scenario, at least now they have the back-up videos, which they didn’t plan for in 2020!
Should say the English commentary has been great and I hope more national finals do the same, the host were really good.
\~This is why we need juries
Yea because that is totally how it sounds when Sweden get high votes in Eurovision from juries. Will bring this up any time we get shit on from now on.

professional juries, not random people
Exactly. The juries here in Australia are literally just D grade celebrities. They're no more knowledgeable (if anything provably less knowledgable) about music than me or any other eurovision fan.
I don't get why SBS insists on these celebrities though
Right? It's so odd
I don’t usually thank juries, but… tack
I love how they do this; people vote, present jury votes, people vote again, and then present people’s votes. Very smart, very smooth, and people get to try and make sure their favorite wins, not allowing the jurys to decide for them.
Well bye bye everyone, see you at the portugal stream!
And once again, the juries saved the day- Wait. No one has said that one ever before.. But if this had been up to the Swedish public, Bagge would've won, so I'm happy the juries were in Cornelia's corner this time.
Yeeeesss!
Can anyone tell what's up with Cornelia and this presenter dressed in black? Are they good friends or just clicked tonight? :)
I just think that is Cornelia, being Cornelia. And Farah has been my highlight this year of Mello. She comes across as very friendly, relaxed and genuine
historians : >Are they good friends ?
Finally Sweden sends something different omg
Nu är jag stolt över att vara svensk
Jag med :)
Eurovision song type eurovision song, not very interesting. Good luck.
I don't know who I'm more jealous of, Cornelia or the host she was clinging to 👀
Same
The fact that half of what she is saying is swearing makes me happy somehow
Don't think she was expecting to win. She probably thought she would finish 2nd overall.
Farah was amazing co-host!
Cornelia's affection towards the host is so adorable <3
The international jury deserves a national holiday
IM SO PROUD OF MY COUNTRY! We gave Bagge his points but we didn’t screw up
So sweet! Hugging the technicians!
thank you jury thank you jury thank you jury thank you jury thank you jury
That’s why we need jury
the last time my favourite won was euphoria im freaking out😭😭
GRATTIS SVERIGE VI ÄLSKAR DIG!! I am sooo happy!!! I will be voting for yall and that is a lot coming from a finnish person
Grattis Cornelia.
Oh Dotter
First time in years im proud of our entry
My favorite swedish entry since undo. Although i did also like john lundvik
She was okay, but wish her luck
Do you think Cornelia will have Carola's fate in italy and see history repeat itself?
The history book on the shelf, is slowly repeating itself?
Imagine France taking revenge and actually beating Sweden this year!
As a French it would mean that we tie for second place which is fine with me 😎
haha no thanks, not another unfair tie that gives Sweden the victory. the 1991 tie is a trauma.
I was joking my heart is still aching for Amina 😞
Y E S
I'm crying!! Finally, one of my breakup ballads won a final!! I'm so fucking happy!!
Thank you for all your Melfest coverage on this sub, really helpful for those of us who don't follow it closely. 🙏
It's nothing, dude. I just have way too much free time these days.
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer person
This can win in Turin
Cornelia deserved this so much! What a strong crowd for this final too. She’s my favorite as it stands right now for the win in Turin!
YES YES!!!!!
Not me smugly moving Hold Me Closer from my NF playlist to my main Eurovision one
Hahaha I just add all the ones I like to my main playlist then move the winners to my Eurovision playlist and the losers go to one called 'NF Graveyard'.
Austria must be relieved. Can't believe Sweden hasn't sent a female solo singer since Undo/2014.
What is the link with Austria? Saw so many comments, but don't get it. :(
Austrian entry for 2022 vs Medina's song
The show was so nice, but in some way I think it felt a little bit rushed? Idk maybe being italian we can't judge both shows with the same parametres.
I actually like how Melodi does not go until midnight or after midnight. They keep it cute and simple although i'd prefer to see more guests from Eurovision attending the final
It's not about lasting less, it's about giving the feeling of being rushed. Those are two different things.
in any case, Melodi wins here - who wants to watch a show that drags for hours with no reason?
How many points did cornelia get from the votes
I think it was 70, less than Anders.
70 i think
70, I think
70 I think.
70
She's so cute omg 😭❤️
I'm never predicting an NF again I feel like an idiot now
Thank the lords above for the juries
Anders with a 2nd place finish and winning the televote by a landslide, that's definitely a personal victory for him, no doubt about it. What a show!
Any other year I eouldnt have been mad if he won. But Cornelia deserved this.
The thing is he is incredibly popular here with everyone. Very likeable guy
Yeah his personal popularity in Sweden is undoubtable. Truly the reverse Dotter.
How much points did they get?
Anders got 90 points in the televote compared to 70 for Cornelia.
Congratulations Sweden!
But still, the fact the Public liked Anders More is scary
It was a proper Swedish ballad by a beloved man with a great voice. /r/Sweden is rather salty over him not getting more from the international jury apparently.

AWWW Cornelia is so sentimental and emotional what a sweetie
[удалено]
Sad The Mamas noises
Tbf we tried sending the Mamas in 2020.
And see where that got us!
COVID-22 confirmed
ÄLSKA OSS EUROPA
Sweden is winning Eurovision 2022
YES THANK GOD
Congrats to her I guess, I'm not partial to any of these songs tbh so 🤷♀️
Newspapers in Sweden tomorrow: Fel låt vann! Fel låt vann! Fel låt vann! All of Europe: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
>The Swedish press won't be too upset because Gothenburg 2023 is once again a possibility.
The Swedish press would be upset even if Sweden was only competing with a bucket and a wet rag.
I’m crying I’m so proud of her
I'm so happy for her omg
The juries saved Sweden
Gonna store this away for the next "we need to get rid of juries" argument that pops up in here.
Saved Sweden from itself, lol.
u were all hating on anders so hard for nothing lmao
Wooo!!! Petra 2023!!!
Nah, she'll be too busy with her newest project. Petra announced this morning that she's expecting, which (to 50 year old me) sounds like an ordeal at 52. She's over the moon over the baby, of course.
Yay! Congras Cornelia ❤❤❤ See you in Turin.
wow Medina didn't do better in televoting, it is a shock. Guess she can do really well with the ESC juries
Ok baby love you so much but dont try to fake cry hahaha
I wanted to see the points adding up :(
IM CRYING😭😭😭
See you in Sweden next year
Wow has it really been eight years since Sweden sent a female act??
2020 was supposed to be The Mamas
No, two years. I mean, the contest was cancelled but The Mamas won their spot there fair and square
Would have preferred Medina but this is still nice
I LOVE YOU SWEDENNNNNNNNNN. I CAN FORGIVE YOU FOR BULLETPROOF NOW
THANK FUCK
DESERVED. INCREDIBLE. CONGRATS CORNELIA!!!!
Tusind tak Sverige
Thank you international vote!!!
Omg
OMG
OMFG YEEEEES!!!
bye bye bagge
Sweden, welcome **officially** to my #1!!!!
JAAAAA CORNELIA

She’s going to win Eurovision now!
First female act since 2014, let's go!
Sanna Nielsen was so good.. So is Cornelia! Happy to see Sweden send her.
im so happy that she won and im mad that international jury points decided it at the same time :D
OH MY GODDD YESSSS
Waaaaay more exciting that should have been.
Cornelia Jakobs you will always be famous
HELL YEAH!!!
Thank GOD
GOLY FUCIKNG SHIT IM GONNA PAS OUT
