Hi Jonathan! Probably someone has already mentioned it but Jakob Hellman - Vara Vänner is another brilliant 80's classic. Or maybe even better tune Hon Har Ett Sätt from same album. That album is still mentioned as the best pop albums ever released here in Sweden.
Är född 90 och trodde också det jättelänge😂 tillägger att jag introducerades för låten via Killinggänget och Robert Gustavsson utklädd som Lena ph, så förknippar låten endast med det 😅 /förstörd 90-talist
This is amazing, so cool to see this reaction. Found it in the wake of the announcment that Lena will join the Roxette tour. She's a great singer and fab on stage, I'll be interesting to see.
As member of EBU (European Broadcasting Union - one of their best known collaboration is the yearly competition Eurovision) SVT owns Melodifestivalen. Hence, they can decide on what artists they want in their shows. It's an expensive production and it has to pay off. Nothing strange about that. Trust me, it would be the same on any American channel.
I agree. The original studio version is something else. Definitely worth checking out. Thanks for the enthusiastic and positive reaction! I appreciate how you read up on each artist and bring some background info on them before each reaction. I recommend Lena Ph’s song ’Kärleken är evig’ from 1986’s Eurovision Song Contest :)
Good choice man! (However this is not an original album version which has much more immaculate arrangement) Love this tune. It was written by guys from Secret Service - and this is another suggestion of Swedish classic artists for you.
Ola Håkansson was a member of the swedish band "Secret service" Great popgroup. They sang on english, but i personally think they whete great. "A flash in the night" is classic
PH:s "Kärleken är evig" är också skön, så väldigt åttiotal. De låtarna ger mig nostalgi för ett årtionde som jag bara upplevde de sista sex månaderna av.
Great sort of series. I subscribed for more and especially for more comedy! That sketch about fast anställning was on point! Glöm inte året efter man skrive upp sig på A-kassan.
Oh! You really need to react to "Picadilly Circus" with Pernilla Wahlgren (yes, the same Pernilla as from the tv-show Wahlgrens Värld). Typical 80´s song and fashion in that one! Another nice song is "God Morgon" - Sweet´n Chips. It´s a good way to start a day. :-)
- Några andra klassiker från Melodifestivalen 1987 var Arja Saijonmaa - Högt över havet och Lotta Engberg - Fyra bugg och en coca-cola. - Som andra har nämnt är Kärleken är evig en annan klassisk Lena Ph-låt. - Lenas melodifestivallåt från 2004 "Det gör ont" är skriven av Orup. - Ola Håkansson var förutom medlem i Secret Service bl.a. en del av låtskrivartrion Norell-Oson-Bard (med Tim Norell och Alexander Bard). Tillsammans skrev de bl.a. melodifestivalvinnaren "En dag" som framfördes av Tommy Nilsson 1989, "Allt som jag känner" (Tone Norum & Tommy Nilsson), "What's the colour of love" (Lili & Susie som du nämnde i videon), "Driver dagg faller regn" (Andreas Lundstedt).
I think this was the live performance from Melodifestivalen. The studio version sounds way more like typical 80's disco pop. Hammering machine drums and stuff. Typically for the times, an ultra cheesy "dansband" song won Melodifestivalen in 1987. You can check out "Fyra Bugg och en Coca Cola" with Lotta Engberg and have a good laugh and cringe moment.
The thing is that this song was for "Eurovision Grand Prix", and there are some rules. I don't know about how this song came to be specifically, but one thing that OFTEN happen is that someone just gets SOMEONE who is good at singing (somteimes a famous name), and send in the song for the first evaluation (which is done before the televised Swedish contest)... and one of the rules (which I SUSPECT is the one at play here).. is that you are NOT allowed to alter things about the song, but as it was presented is how you are supposed to go on to the contest. So, IF the person first wrote the song.. Didn't have access to Lili&Sussi, and instead recorded it with Lena Ph, then they would be denied changing singers.. (That rule is to prevent amateurs to get a famous and professional musician to record the the song, but they always intended to play the song themselves, so suddenly are some amateurs whom the jury didn't know the skilset of on national TV)..
This have to be a modern rerecording by her. It is the same song but the timing and also the mix(volume mix) is a bit of from the original old recording. For me the older one evoke stronger feelings for me. Still good though :) Sorry for being a nerd :P
In fact SVT have a total exclusivity to manage the artist for a song taken further in to the yearly, swe melody competition. The writer can "wish" an artist. thats all. I think it are a bit different if you write the song for you self.
Håller med, den är lite tråkig. Det är också den som har placerat sig sämst. Men den verkar vara mer ihågkommen än t.ex. Om Igen, vilken kanske blev för överskuggad av "Stad i Ljus" som vann det året.
It’s a classic. Hits a chord in my Swedish heart. The lyrics are so beautiful and sad. And the raspy voice suits the lyrics.

Den är väldigt 80-tal!! När jag var liten (född -82) trodde jag att hon sjöng Dansa in i ån 🤣
Det trodde vi alla 😅
Yupp samma här.
😂
Åh hahahaha 🤣

Oooh, I just bet that the next time you are in a car and this song comes on You are gonna turn the volume up!
You should really try the studio version. Ola tried some wild new sounds with this song back in 87!!
I agree. The original studio version is something else. Definitely worth checking out. Thanks for the enthusiastic and positive reaction!

Love watching your reactions by the way, and to relive all this music.

Men då måste han välja albumversionen. Hade hoppats på den även här. Tänk att dessa två låtar var på samma skiva!
reagera på Angel - Sommaren i City. It's a banger
Please do "ont det gör ont" with Lena. And it most be the live version from Melodifestivalen 😉😂
It's funny but I listen to this song (surprisingly often) with the same expression on my face as yours ))
Other amazing songs with Lena PH: Kärleken är evig, Det gör ont
Lena PH- Delirium
Great sort of series. I subscribed for more and especially for more comedy! That sketch about fast anställning was on point! Glöm inte året efter man skrive upp sig på A-kassan.
"I let the music speak" by ABBA. Masterpiece 🤗

”Dansa i neon” kom 1987. 2004 tävlade Lena med ”Det gör ont” i Melodifestivalen 🤩
"Leena Pee Hoe" HA HA JAG DÖR

Anne-Lie Rydé - En så'n karl / Björn Skifs - Michaelangelo / Kenta - Just idag är jag stark / Tommy Nilsson - En dag
Would be nice to see you react to Bob Hund. To Songs like: Tralala lilla molntuss... Nu är det väl revolution på gång... there is so much more...
"Lena Peehole " you said... not me
Du borde reagera på alla låtar som vunnit Melodifestivalen! Det finns en video på YT där nån har klippt ihop alla vinnarna genom tiderna.
Peo före detta Alex Tyrone from Easy Action 😊 and also my favourite group Noice❤ is underatred old glam,punk bands.
Wow, i remember i thought she was very hot! When i was yunger! I love the eighties! Go Lena go!!!!
This have to be a modern rerecording by her. It is the same song but the timing and also the mix(volume mix) is a bit of from the original old recording. For me the older one evoke stronger feelings for me. Still good though :)
Sorry for being a nerd :P
Jag tror det är liveversionen från Melodifestivalen. Liveorkester. Inte en modern inspelning.
Listen to: NORDMAN - VANDRAREN
In fact SVT have a total exclusivity to manage the artist for a song taken further in to the yearly, swe melody competition.
The writer can "wish" an artist. thats all. I think it are a bit different if you write the song for you self.
Movitz - Halvägs
Really weird live version with poor sound. This version didn’t make the song justice.
Why dont you do videos?
Lena PH - "Det gör ont". Det må inte vara en klassiker, men det är en av hennes bättre låtar, och en schlagerklassiker.
Den är definitivt en klassiker. Hela Lena är en enda stor svensk klassiker!
@@T1hitsTheHighestNote Det gör ont är för ny för att vara lika mycket svensk klassiker som dansa i neon och kärleken är evig.
En schlager som inte har en tonartshöjning. Ovanligt.
Så vann den inte heller.
Lili & Susie had a sexual image and svt thought it was a little bit too much. But a few years later, Lili och Susie competed in Melodifestivalen..🙂
Dansa in i ån
PeeHoo =D
Amazon - Ålen
No relation what I know ;)
Av alla Lenas 4 Mellolåtar är det här den jag tycker sämst om. "Kärleken är evig" är grym dock! Skriven av Per Gessle
Håller med, den är lite tråkig. Det är också den som har placerat sig sämst. Men den verkar vara mer ihågkommen än t.ex. Om Igen, vilken kanske blev för överskuggad av "Stad i Ljus" som vann det året.
Original version from -87 is better though.
