Eric Saade goes 'Green for Malmo 2013'



As we head for Le Eurovision week, the excitement is reaching fever- pitch in Malmo...
One of the fantastic highlights for 2013 is the fact that our host country is of course Sweden who are already famous for putting on a great music song contest annually with Melodifestivalen.

So what can we expect...when the three shows begin....

The running order of the songs sung in the contest will be choosen by SVT this year (expect the swedish entry) this is a new rule. I think this may add to the entertainment factor of the Grand Final night as planned lets see.
Eurovision 2013 will have one single host with Petra Mede. That's right- a one woman show
Petra' is a real funny lady who has actually lead a Melodifestivalen season before by herself, an interesting choice of representer for the Green Room is the fantastc singer 'Eric Saade' who has come a long way in Sweden since his 'popular'
entry for Sweden in 2011. However Eric Saade has not done presenting before, yet joining in the Green Room should not be too foreign to Eric. Who can forget his many hooded antics in Dusseldorf  in 2011.

With the interval acts we are promised a performance from Darin and Agnes, who had a massive European hit with 'Release Me' and for grand final night we may see an appearence from the Eurovision Melodifestivalen Queen herself 'Carola'

Let the countdown begin..
