Late night Rewatch: Melodifestivalen 2009 Final - AT MIDNIGHT

[Alla]

Oooh, I;ve heard the name Shirley Clamp a lot but this is my first proper experience. Right now, it's fucking excruciating...

Unless you have VoR blocked, you saw it MANY TIMES, yes.

 

[Beverley]

The Proclaimers to sue

AGREED. IT WAS BLATANT

 

[ButterTart]

Background - Shirley Clamp, one of the big stars of recent Melodifestivalen years who went out 8th in CHUB-THIGHED DISGRACE in the heats this year, is talking about how good life has been since the result.

It's the way she tells 'em.

 

[octophone]

I don't know what is happening right now.

Same.

 

[Alla]

In case someone doesn't know, Emilia is THIS Emilia:

 

[Penelope]

Ironically, this is exactly what Shirley Clamp does these days.

She is a SUCCESSFUL WEIGHTWATCHERS REPRESENTATIVE

 

[D5K]

Ironically, this is exactly what Shirley Clamp does these days.

I honestly don’t know if you’re joking

 

[ButterTart]

Back to the shite now. Big Big World's own Emilia with a song that sounds so much better in snippets than it does as a three minute entity.

[Penelope]

Background - this is Emilia of 9/11 fame

 

[ButterTart]

I don't know what is happening right now.

Nothing of note for at least the next three minutes.

 

[Madison]

Pop fact: Emilia sang a song called “Big Big World”

 

[Lucille]

[D5K]

She now manages an electronics store.

 

[Dark Carnival]

[dmlaw]

I always thought that Shirley Clamp was a comedy character portrayed by Sarah Dawn Finer.

 

[Lucille]

Omg this is STUNNING.

 

[Dark Carnival]

WHAT!!!

 

[Madison]

Fact: Emilia is mother of climate activist Greta Thunberg

 

[Lucille]

[Dark Carnival]

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!!

 

[Alla]

omg is this Emilia from Big Big World?!!!

Indeed.

 

[octophone]

In case someone doesn't know, Emilia is THIS Emilia:

I loved "Big Big World".

This is shit tho'.

 

[Penelope]

Fact: Greta Thunberg is the mother of climate activist Emilia

 

[Soldi]

She now manages an electronics store.

Well it’s nice to know all the Mello contestants now work in retail and aren’t DEAD like in the 80s

 

[Dark Carnival]

I’m sorry WHO?!?

I'm a big big girl in a big big world!!! 1999!!

 

[ButterTart]

Her breathing is louder than her vocals.

 

[Soldi]

Fact: Greta Thunberg is the mother of climate activist Emilia

 

[octophone]

Black opaques with a flash coloured dress? Dear me...

 

[Beverley]

HATED THIS then and HATE IT now

 

[Lucille]

[Alla]

I also love Good Sign, her unsuccessful follow up to Big Big World. I bought the single.

 

[dmlaw]

Give Coronavirus time.

 

[Soldi]

[Madison]

Can you remember that song “Big Big World”?

Well Emilia was the one what sang that.

 

[Beverley]

Black opaques with a flash coloured dress? Dear me...

It's definitely a BOOT

 

[Penelope]

What is going ON with the staging for this?

It should obviously have been done like Love Is Forever

 

[Lucille]

HATED THIS then and HATE IT now

Why do you hate JOY.

WHO HURT YOU BEV?!?

 

[ButterTart]

I always thought that Shirley Clamp was a comedy character portrayed by Sarah Dawn Finer.

She is. Stuffing her into that 'slightly thinner' suit is a painful undertaking, but worth it for the lols.

 

[Penelope]

What is going ON with the staging for this?

It should obviously have been done like Love Is Forever

Complete with her shooting herself in the head at the end.
