Tonight I watched the first semi-final of “Melodifestivalen 2014”.

 

MY TOP 3 FAVORITES IN SEMI-FINAL 1 WERE:

1. YOHIO - To the End.

2. Mahan Moin - Aleo.

3. Helena Paparizou - Survivor.

Luckily one of my favorites tonight won and will go straight to the final!

YOHIO was 1 of the 2 winners in Semi-final 1 so he will be competing in the final.

Unfortunately Mahan Moin ended up on place 7/8 so she's gone from the competition.

Helena Paparizou ended up on place 3/8 along with another contestant so she will get another chance in the second chance round.

 

If I end up watching all the semi-finals and the second chance round I may do a blog-post like this one after I've watched them to share which contestants were my favorites during “Melodifestivalen 2014”. If I do more blog-posts like this one, I'll share my top 3 favorites in every-blogpost (if I have that many of course). In tonight's semi-final I didn't like any of the other 5 songs, so it was really easy to pick my top 3 favorites but I'll see if I'll have any top 3 favorites in the rest of the semi-finals (otherwise I'll just write the favorite/s I have, but 3 is the maximum).
I will for sure watch the final of “Melodifestivalen 2014” because I always watch the final every year, so I can already promise you that I'll do a blog-post about the final anyway.

Semi-final 2 is on February 8. Semi-final 3 is on February 15. Semi-final 4 is on February 22. Second chance round is on March 1. And the Final is on March 8.
