She made me cry last year. At least once. Such emotional intelligence and sensitivity.

[@alexandrenabais6053]

I love when she swears. It was one of the many things it made me like her last year.

[@vvendet2532]

She is so smart! Love from 🇷🇸

[@konstantinoskolaitis2183]

Not gonna lie, the memories of listening to Hold me Closer and her winning Melfest and performing in Turin really feel like a heartbreak nowadays, wish i could go back and reexperience this ride.
Awesome interview once again Alesia, so glad to see she's thriving and evolving, she deserves the world. I binged-watched Songland's two seasons during the first quarantine and became a fan, so seeing her participating is so cool.

All rise for the Queen

[@carlisbookshelf]

Wowowowow I love her!

[@everest938]

loved the questions you asked her!! They're ones i hadn't heard before which is such a hard thing to do for eurovision interviews and the cherry on top is that cornelia gave such great answers

[@a.m.rifkia.3rd493]

with Songland finally landing on Sweden (SVT, to be more exact), I now start hoping that Songland will be the new "P4 Nästa", in the sense that the winning songwriter will be given the prize of being one of the 28 entries of the following year's Melodifestivalen.

Not a bad idea

Cornelia!!!!!! 😍😍😍 Con una remera de Britney Spears 😱😱😱😱. No pensé que podía amarla más, pero ahora resulta que sí ❤❤❤

[@khanhlinh05256]

Listen to this interview and realise Cornelia once wrote a song for Loreen but it didn't come out. I could sell my soul to hear that song

[@harryt5878]

God I love Cornelia 🥰

[@keldeori3059]

We love you Cornelia

[@thefreshestfish4387]

Hmmm her thoughts on Sweden beeing good with music, but also they maybe have a good Ear for it and are talented ;) typical swedish jantelag not wanting to take it as a compliment but to say its because they spend alot of time indoors and dont have any ”problems” and are kinda spoiled 😂 nono Cornelia, give your homecountry some credit😅

[@eleanorigami]

cornelia did so well in trying to explain why she thinks sweden exports a lot of music. 🫠🫠🫠
