blogging since 2007 about European music, travel and all things Eurovision-related, as well as a bit of telly and retro-tastic music.

The 2011-50: No.2 - I guess I love the way it burns
"Like Suicide" - Christian Walz.
The offputting title/lyrics and bizarre styling at Melodifestivalen probably contributed to him not progressing any further in the competition, but the fact remains that Christian Walz is one of the finest artists to come out of Sweden in recent years.
One more fact: Melodifestivalen will always produce some of my favourite songs of the year and this is no exception. Yes, the ill-advised title should have been changed, but the song as a whole is three minutes of absolute class. Now can we have a new album please, Christian???
