Linnea Henriksson - Den känslan

[VoR]

I never would have pegged widely respected radio staple and former Melfest host Linnea to be the biggest faceplant of the season, but here we are.

Still love the song, but watching the performance back it does have a certain Dilba-esque quality. She never really looks very comfortable, and it’s almost as though she’s moving at half-speed through most of it…

Just needed Dilba’s iconic AGONISED GRIMACE at the end to complete the tribute

The song and staging are cute, albeit uncompetitive.

It’s almost as though she’s moving at half-speed through most of it…

It mostly felt like everybody was just going through the motions without anything of note happening for 3 minutes. This and her feather-light vocals were the final nail in the coffin I guess.

The bit with her dancers pulling off her gloves from around 1.40 is so awkward!

Does one dancer accidentally pull off both layers? It's a very strange sequence. She starts with the two black gloves, then one is pulled off to reveal a red lacy number. But then the other glove has nothing underneath, then she has to awkwardly pull the mic away from her mouth to remove the red lacy piece from her other arm.

Not exactly giving GLITTER OCH GLAMOUR!

Love this song

i was thinking about why it flopped so hard the other day and whilst I think it’s mainly because the song is just so un-competitive (not a critique) it’s also maybe quite far away from the type of feeling most know her for. I would have wanted her to come back and recreate her greatest hit for that Cornelia Jakobs feeling:
