Melodifestivalen 2008: The Big Final


It's here at last - the biggest night of the S-Pop calendar! The final of Melodifestivalen 2008! And what a contest it's been so far! The downfall of Androla, Christer Sjögren being voted into the final, Thérèse Andersson's knicker-shock... And that's just the start of it, who knows what's going to happen tonight?
The Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet have done a huge online survey, and after 60 188 votes, this is who Aftonbladet readers think will take home the prize and represent Sweden in Belgrade:

01 Charlotte Perrelli - 30.9%
02 Sanna Nielsen - 16.8%
03 BWO - 12.4%
04 Christer Sjögren - 7.9% (Please God no!)
05 Linda Bengtzing - 6.9%
06 Rongedal - 6.7%
07 Nordman - 6.6%
08 Amy Diamond - 6.2%
09 Sibel - 4.3%
10 Frida ft. Headline - 1.4%

However, the previous Aftonbladet survey said that Androla would definitely beat Nordman in Andra Chansen, so it really is anyone's game.

For those of you not in Sweden, you can watch the contest online on SVT's official Melodifestivalen website. The contest starts at 8.00pm CET (7.00pm GMT) and lasts two hours.

And throwing neutrality to the wind for a moment, S-Pop would like to encourage all Swedish readers to vote like mad for Sweden's new schlagerqueen Sanna Nielsen!
The numbers to vote for her are:

099-230 07 (Normal)
099-320 07 (Radiohjälpen)
