Well, many friends (including Glen our regular Europorter here) don't agree with me and though it's Top 3 in Sweden it's not as huge as I thought.
But I stick with my ears.

Been playing the remix in my Saturday night shows and the response to it has been almost completely negative.In a gay bar i would have expected better
There again they are still screaming their tits off for that Rihanna claptrap about "falling in love with a basket case".
Very sad!!

As you'll see in my numerous Eurovision threads, I reckon this Swedish entry will not only win but will be No1 everywhere in June and July - including America, Australia and all points non-Eurovision.
I'm biased because... it's on Warners (the corporation that assisted me in getting the last big Eurovision hit - Gina G and Just A Little Bit in 1996 - and that looked after our winner in 1997 Katrina and Love Shine A Light) - and I love it.
It's deliciously old fashioned (dance from the 90s) yet modern; it's simple, catchy, formulaic but cunning.
Can it miss the clubs this summer? Will we not hear it on the beaches?
By September we'll all be bored by Euphoria and Loreen but this will be enormous all summer long.
Since my time in charge of the UK Eurovision contest, we've not seen any Eurovision real hits and it's time to show how the Abba ethos (we publish Abba) can return to the competition.
