Lyrics : Ingela "Pling" Forsman
Music : Bobby Ljunggren, Håkan Almqvist

His voice is perfect! And this song DOESN'T sound outdated, it could receive a very good place even now, in 2010s
This song's English version is on retro radio stations all the time.
@@Mcquiz95 Really? Where? I haven't heard anything of this song for like 10 years.
@@thesnesgeek It plays quite often on Estonian radio stations that play more retro music. Only the English version though.
@@Mcquiz95 It's funny how a song released in another laungage can be more successful in another. And how is the english version accordring to you?
The English version is called “Another night”. The singer’s name is Jan Johansen. You should be able to find it here on YT. Even though I don’t understand any Swedish, I still prefer this version than the English one. It sounds better.
Isn’t it lovely to hear them sing in their own language instead of shouting nowadays, lovely times to remember x
"Se på mig" means "Look at me" in English
Here is the english lyrics:
When your journey is long and you are weary
But you still have to go on, mmm…
And when the shadows start to grow and come to life
And when the night scares you so
I am beside you and I follow every step you take
And with you, I’ll stay
So look at me, oho, a harbor in the storm
Like a wave, that is born to carry you
Yes, look at me, oho, in light and darkness
I’ll be there and I’ll never leave you
When you stand one day at a crossroads of your life
Like a lost little child
I am beside you and I follow every step you take
And with you, I’ll stay
So look at me, oho, a harbor in the storm
Like a wave, that is born to carry you
Yes, look at me, oho, in light and darkness
I’ll be there and I’ll never leave you
I’ll go with you wherever you go
And I’ll never leave you
So look at me, oho, a harbor in the storm
Like a wave, that is born to love you
Yes, look at me, when the light turns into darkness in your life
I’ll be there, and I’ll never leave you
I love you so
I have still been playing this in 2021 and as an English man, I love the Swedish version.
One of the best song from Eurovision. Greetings from Slovenia
One of the best Swedish song in all history.Magnificent.
23 years later...still 12 Points from Germany!
Genau! Von mir auch 😊
the orchestra made an amazing job in 1995, in most entries, i would say. unsurpassed!
One of the best Eurovision Songs in the history...Beautiful and well produced :)
Agree
I was i Sweden that year. Love the song. Love Sweden. Love the swedish people🥰🥰
Love abba
@frankly-he1kf I love ABBA, too. 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
I was 19 back in 1995. Love this song so much ❤. For me, and more than any other song, it is everything about my youth, my life, my dreams, my love I had back then.
I was 21 and I simply had a crush on the guy. 😄
Same. I was 15, going on 16, went to Sweden for the first time and fell in love 😊 this takes me back 🥰
One of the best Eurovision years ever. The quality of the songs was amazing. This is up there as one of my favourites. I was lucky enough to attend dress rehearsals at The Point Depot that year and this was one of the acts I saw perform. He was incredible. I still play the song all the time in my car. Denmark, Cyprus and Spain stand out for me that year as incredible too. What a year !
Still the best that Sweden ever brought to ESC. So pure and so subtle.
Much better than the actual winner
it lost to one of the greatest Eurovision entries ever and Spain's best ever. This in itself is my favourite Swedish entry that fell short of the winning post. No shame here considering the quality of the competition... still Sweden have more than made up for it since.
That warms a swedish heart. Thank you very much.
That year was very competitive. The top 3 songs can do good as winner.
Thats not true this is the best we made since before. Not again have we done better. Keep Abba in mind todays music belongs in a trashcan. Been this way for 15+ years now
This was one of the best year in ESC, 1995.
If you haven't still listened to most songs, you should. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Spain, Norway, Sweden, Ireland, Denmark, Cyprus, Greece... Wow, great great songs!
Totally agree
Amina should have won this Eurovision year, no doubt. I still loving this beautiful song. It is one of my all time favourite Eurovision tunes. Maybe it is my favourite one. It is such a very, very , very, very beautiful song. Love Amina and Love France. Much love from Timo from the Netherlands ♥️❤️❤️
Brilliant performance..stayed focussed and remained understated....to me, the best song in 1995.... Heja Sverige 🇸🇪
One of the best ESC-entries ever ever
I think 1995 was one of the best years for songs in eurovison so many good songs
remember falling in love with this singer :p
Wow, I discovered this song recently and it is growing more and more in me!
Best Eurovision song EVER loved it and still do
I love this song. Perfect voice, beautiful melody.
This song should have won, was easily the best one that year!
One of the best songs ever made. Especially this one performance
One of the best ESC-entries ever ever ever!!!!!! Sooooo beautiful!!!
Welcome back to a surprising Melodifestivalen, Jan!
Childhood memories
WOW! What an amazing entry! Sweden should start sending amazing entries in Swedish, which I think is a beautiful language. Plus, I like the Scandinavian languages. The focus should always be on the performance, the voice and the music, not on understanding the lyrics.
lol euroviosion contest is about degeneracy and retardness not about "understanding the lyrics"
True, ESC was better when songs were in native language.
My absolute winner that year!!!
I love this SWEDEN entry.
Some really great songs those year.. Don't know which one to choose..! Such an amazing swedish song, even after almost 25 years..!!
One of the best songs ever
Should have won in 1995!
Agree
It's a good song, but come on; secret garden's nocturne was way too good! I dare say that nocturne is too good for eurovision.
...instead of secret garden AND anabel conde? no sis. This was a nice one but
Yes this song is better than in 1991.
1995 was a strong eurovision year, the top 3 were all good and Nocturne is one of the best if not the best song in eurovision history so I think the winner was well deserved
Sweden always make best Eurovision Tunes, I love you Sweden
25 years ago, feels like yesterday. Superb performance, thx.
Love the song and him. ❤❤❤❤❤
One of the best ESC-ENTRIES ever!
Like wave thats birthed to love you❤
2021 ...i am still in love with this song
A Good song and a performer with a Great voice ❤️
It's Jans voice that makes the song.
I used to think this song was so sad when I was little, I cried every time I heard it xD
Teragauss Cuddle The English version is sad indeed ntl.
Love it all this years ❤
Gran balada, muy romántica, con cantante con mucha personalidad y bastante pasional. Calificación: 9/10
Classic
I love this song!
I will use it for my wedding video. It was my winner that year
I loved this from the first time it was in esc
Great song! I love it! ❤️❤️🌞🌞🌞
Una gran canción...de lo mejor que ha enviado Suecia al festival en su historia.
Great song.
Amazing!
He is so handsome!
una maravillosa melodia , y una gran cantante con una voz privilegiada .Me disculpo por no haber escrito correctamente su nombre , ya que lo transcribi al español , segun la pronunciacion del comentarista.Soy una defensora de que en España se aprendan y se estudien lenguas nordicas.La cantante tiene una voz prodigiosa.Un cordial y cariñoso saludo desde España ,ya que le siento un afecto especial a este pais maravilloso , como es Noruega.
Should have won!
Love this song.
Best ever
La mejor canción de Eurovisión de 1995.Una gran balada al estilo de Sting,una música muy moderna para aquel año y un gran intérprete.
Piękna Piosenka i wykonanie ❤❤❤🪷🥰
winnerr !
2023 & still ❤ this song
I miss very much hearing Swedish in ESC. Sweden just send throwaway pop now. Shame
Scott Earp I love the Nordic languages very much and that’s also for Iceland, Denmark and Norway
This came in as a close second in Melodifestivalen this year.

@@TheDRMISTERY To show that not all is throwaway pop?
@@Merecir that song is throwaway pop though. Didnt know about that one, it was horrible. Another soulless, boring, producer written pop song.
There are many countries who send throwaway pop, like UK
Loved this song
Så underbart søt❤️
Did he become famous in Sweden? I hope so.
Belive it it not, he just started as music-teacher in my kids school. My kids are 8 and 10 years old. Difficult to be an artist and make a living when Covid-19 is around, I guess.
And yes, he is quite famous in Sweden.
Big like!
Oct 2023 still listen
Underbart
My teacher is in the orchestra
awesome
❤❤❤ a hansone fella
'se på mej' 😭
It has an 80s feel to it.. If it released a few years prior it might have won, I guess the format was considered outdated in 1995
Taką Szwecję na Eurowizji uwielbiam! Obecne nowoczesne na siłę utwory już mi się znudziły. Są mało szwedzkie.
Jan Johansen 1995 vs Tommy Körberg... Jag väljer nog Jan.
In every other year of the 90's this would have won.
❤️
I don't think I'm saying stupid if I say that that was the best edition of the 90s.
Should have won in 1995 - without a doubt! Greetings from Norway
En qué posición quedó este chico en Eurovisión?
I've just watched the preview video for this and boy did it ever get a glow up for the final. Jan sings it OK but really struggles to connect with the camera on the Melfest version, and keeps licking his lips, presumably through nerves. They sorted out his hair a bit and ditched the big earring too 😁
Remember hearing a parody of this in the late 90s where they sing "SÄPO mig, ni följer varje steg jag tar" instead, refering Sweden's security agency following some espionage scandals. Never been able to find that parody again nor info on who made it.
High quality and not the trash of these days. Yes its possible to send good songs In the real language and not always In english! This and Portugal are the proove! I miss the northern and greek language! Now its only english trash!
Better than what won that year.
Great song, but that noisy SHAKER ruins everything :(
efso ulan bee
Quel mélitantennien.
¡Anda, una canción italiana cantada por un sueco!
29 år senare 10 poäng
Those were the times when Sweden did send quality songs to Eurovision. Now in the last 10-15 years it's just constant production of cheap Eurotrash pop. This years entry for example is just a cheap copy of David Guetta and last years entry was copy of Wreking ball with Miley Cyrus
Well both 1995 and 1996 entries ended up in 3rd place and are much better than what we have from Sweden these days with the exception of Euphoria which is simply extremely well composed pop/dance song.
Stefan Sigfinnsson Sweden also produced "Euphoria", one of the best dance songs there are.
Philip Trent Euphora is a rare exception
@woodlandguy76 Wouldn't work today? Your prediction was wrong, at least last year. A simple ballad (without synthetic instruments) in the national language still has the power to win, as Portugal did last year.
I disagree. Sweden adapt well musically to the times. Don’t get me wrong this is brilliant but wouldn’t do well today

The message of Jesus Christ. ❤
tää on vaa aina ollut mun lauluni,jos ei kukaan muu tiiä ni inaki mun tätini T
Douze points!!!
Loved this song but good it did not won when sweden only gave denmark two points buh
That's not true. Sweden gave Denmark 12 points!
That being said, I'm almost certain the Scandinavian countries gave nothing to Spain that year, somewhat scandalous...
