Here is a Mf chart showing the first half of the past

decade of Melodifestivalen Songs. It's worth noting that

these first 5 years 'Melodifestivalen' was growing becoming

more and more popular with each year. In 2000 & 2001, a

basic 10-song

One night Tv Show competion format was used. This all

changed in 2002, with 4-semi final heats and one second

chance round used

to find the final 10 songs for the Final.

As we look at the public tele-vote scores, we see how Globen Final

contest grew and grew

up to the 298 722 tele-votes scored for Lena Philipsson's 'Det gör ont'

in 2004. Fame 's 'Give me your Love' was far behind with

229 753 in 2003.

I took the winners out of the above chart- so we see just how the swedish

public felt about the other finalists.

Even more public voting came in during Melodifestivalen

2005-2009 as you can imagine.

We will look at those years next, still its good to stop at 2004, cus

once we add the songs/votes in the next half of the decade

only a few of these great tunes above will

survive...stay tuned for that. Please vote in the Winners Poll

above in the side bar- if you have'nt yet.

we will have another Poll soon.

As the search continues..

friends- winners in 2001 feature twice in the chartlist
