Malena Ernman-Performs LIVE in London at Escape London




Malena Ernman is today a highly renowned international opera artist with concerts in Tokyo,
Berlin, Madrid, Rome, Paris and Los Angeles. This year of course she became the winner
of Melodifestivalen 2009 with the wonderful 'La Voix'
This past weekend she had an
Opera performance at Royal Opera Hall, no less. At 7 pm on Sunday evening she found time to
perform a small gig at The Escape Club in Soho, for her new London fans.

This just shows what a wonderful artist she is during her show she performed songs from her
hugely successful No 1 CD ‘La Voix Du Nord’ that sold platinum in just six weeks. As well
as hanging around in the Swedens Top 20 now for months. Once again the wonderful scandipop
brought together this event.. The crowd certainly went wild.
Here are the very songs Malena Ernman performed on the night.

'Sempre Libera', 'One Step From Paradise',
'What Becomes Of Love'
'Un Bel Di', 'Perdus',
'Tragedy' + a Melodifestivalen Classic 'La Voix'

You can see one track below of my favourite album pop track on the album
'Tragedy' What a lady check out a wonderful interview she did also at
scandipop site tack lads.

"When times are hard you ask for sweeter tunes
When days are tough the nights bring full saloons
But when I swing and change to minor chords
That's when the audience goes wild.."






"Here comes the tragedy
The sound of agony
The tears you love to cry
The pain that wants no remedy
People tell me they like me to smile
Bring joy and relief for awhile
But when all the music starts
They love the sound of tragedy

Here comes the tragedy
The death of harmony
The tears you love to cry
The pain that fights serenity
People tell me they like me to smile
Bring joy and relief for awhile
Deep inside your heart you want the tragedy

I walk the stage and sing you've got a friend
I find applause towards the happy end
But when I swing and change to minor chords
That's when the audience goes wild

One I'll direct your success
Two every rule we transgress
Three it's the drama they bless
Four find the spleen at the core
Five it's the tears they adore
Six and when they weep give them more

Here comes the tragedy
The death of harmony
The tears you love to cry
The pain that fights serenity"

Malena's 'La Voix' Dress is revealed in Stockholm

Malena's "New" Snow Queen dress for the Moscow final has been revealed in the swedish press reports today. It has been the first time the dress has been seen, it was created by designer Camilla Thulin.
A real contrast to the black dress she wore in Melodifestivalen final. This time in a White classic 1800's style with futuristic wings and 365 ostrich feathers + turkish sequins from Istanbul ! this certainly sounds like a grand classic performance in the making. Not forgetting the 5 spunky dancers with Malena, to wear short jackets of velvet & silk in the same classic style. Camilla estimates the cost of the dress alone at 400,000 Svenska Krone's. blimey!

Malena is overjoyed and said she feels like Grace Kelly in the dress. It certainly made up for her recent last minute Russian Visa delays of earlier this week.
GO MALeNA..

Marlena's Moment of Victory - As she won Mf 2009 & will take Sweden to Moscow

Marlena with 'La Voix' -the song that at the end of the jury voting looked set to have a lower placing. Marlena said herself how she had packed up and was set to go home ! it was Mans 'Hope and Glory' had a clear advantage at that final stage of the final vote.
Then the public vote was added to the score board, and on this rare occasion it was the public that saved the song. The tele-vote over turned the experts and international verdict so Marlena pipped all the others to win Melodifestivalen 2009.
An excellent night of great performances and around 5 clearly winning songs which was shown in the very mixed voting at the end of a tense Final. Well done,
Sweden you choose well
