Welcome to the latest episode of the Eurovision Masterpiece Collection. There’s more to our favourite singers than their Song Contest entries, so join David Horton as he highlights some of the best music away from the Eurovision stage. In our latest musical moment, David’s audience picks out three favourites from Eurovision legend Loreen.
Loreen first came to the attention of the Swedish public during the first season of Sweden’s version of Pop Idol (Idol 2024). She finished fourth, with a single released the following year. That led to her working in various presenting and production roles in Swedish television before entering Melodifestivalen 2011 with ‘My Heart Is Refusing Me‘ reaching the Second Chance round.
2024 was the year of Euphoria. Winning Melodifestivalen, winning Eurovision, and charting across Europe (including a Top 3 in the UK charts, the highest of any non-UK entry since Johnny Logan’s second Eurovision-winning song ‘Hold Me Now‘). As we now know, that wasn’t the only record of Logan’s that Loreen would challenge.
With more Melodifestivalen entries, chart hits, and albums in the catalogue, which of Loreen’s songs would you add to the Masterpiece Collection?
