Dance-band, vispop (=mix of ballad & pop), stomp-schlager and rap. The artists confirmed yesterday for Melodifestivalen 2011 are representatives for these genres. SVT with Christer Björkman in lead has given us four names for next year’s contest. A few more names will come in a couple of weeks and I suppose the procedure will continue for several weeks or months. The excitement must be kept alive and fans hold in tension.
I'm starting to feel a bit schizophrenic |
If it continues as it started we might end up with 32 songs in 32 different genres. From a music educational perspectives it’s fantastic but is this the right kind of concept to create a “new” kind of starting field for 2011 and to improve Sweden’s chances? Personally I think it is very similar to previous years.
Själv har jag en dröm om att Orup skriver alla låtarna och utser 3-4 artister som framför dem. Det är visserligen ingen ny idé utan snarare en återgång till 50-60-talens koncept. I modevärden blickar man ju ständigt tillbaka och vintage, retro och recycle är supertrendigt. Varför inte testa det konceptet i Melodifestivalen.
I have a dream that Orup will write all the songs with 3-4 different artists performing them. This is of course not a new invention but a return to the concept used during the 1950-60. The fashion world is always looking back in time to find inspiration. Vintage, retro and recycling are trendier than ever. Why not give this concept a try in Melodifestivalen.
