SCANDIPO.CO.UK REPORTS
This week’s episode of Så Mycket Bättre saw the crew take turns in covering the songs of Sylwia Vrethammar. And Darin (MF 2009, 2010) chose to take on her ‘Magdalena (Livet Före Döden)’. His version of ‘Magdalena’ actually has a lot in common with his version of Coldplay’s ‘Viva La Vida’ which was a genuine hit for him a couple of years back. Melodic synth rock in mid-tempo, and with a fair amount of anthemic instrumentation thrown in. It’s different to anything else he’s given us this season on Så Mycket Bättre, but another track that we’ll be playing a lot of in the coming weeks.

For once, our Sunday morning post about Darin’s Så Mycket Bättre activity doesn’t come with the news that his latest offering is now number 1, 2, or 3 on Swedish iTunes. ‘Magdalena’ is actually languishing outside the top 20, as are the rest of the songs from last night’s show. That’s a first. However, since Swedish music buyers haven’t been so quick to purchase any of Sylwia Vrethammar’s cover versions in previous weeks, perhaps they’re applying the same logic in turn to covers of her songs too.

DENMARK 🇩🇰 Fyr & Flamme have won a hotly contested Dansk Melodi Grand Prix and will perform ‘Øve os på hinanden’ at the Eurovision Song Contest in Rotterdam. An action packed Danish national final saw the 8-strong field narrowed down to a top three, leaving Fyr & Flamme, Chief 1 & Thomas Buttenschøn and Jean Michel to battle it out in the public vote for the chance to represent Denmark in Rotterdam this May. Fyr & Flamme stormed the poll to win with their track Øve os på hinanden (Practice on Each Other). The pair also thanked the Melodi Grand Prix orchestra claiming it was their backing that really gave their track the extra muscles to win. 5 0
