I am shocked at how close the two versions sound. Jenny Silver did it herself - and it took five from STEPS to recreate it. They are both good - surprised this never went very far internationally.
Eurovision is all about the country you represent rather than what you sing. If your country is popular and especially with your neighbours, you get votes. That is why a song with a good melody like this would get nowhere
Jenny the best at this competition. A magnificent song, the fine singer, and the beautiful woman. If The swedes would choose her, I would vote for her many times and would like a victory for her, because she - the best. But they have taken away from themselves a victory... How it could be made? I don't understand... (Sorry for my English)
Har kikat lite runt på utländska kommenrtarer på årets svenska festivallåtar. Denna tycks få minst negativa omdömen av dem alla. Verkar som de flesta därute i europa gillar denna låt.
I love...is really amazing :O Popular are great, I vote for Sweden this year, but this song is emotional! (from spain) Had to be in the final of Melodifestivalen!
Idags ABBA- Love this song. Även i Finland... Love you! Best for you Jenny! You are Suber .)) Best wishes all you swedish människorna som tycker om eurovision låterna!
@Zebbrox Jenny was good enough to win the Melodifestivalen (and the Eurovision Song Contest). And here there are questions to the system of the contest and vote. Sometimes a lot of good songs fall into one preliminary round, and they can not all reach the final.
Something is in this song :) I really like it! so 100 times better than girl with 'sheep-voice' from last year. Go go go Sweden! just give her a last chance!
Upphotad ABBA-låt. Älskar denna. Denna hade garaterat gått långt i ESC. Det är denna typ av låtar som slår. Jag tror inte någon av de som är i finalen kommer slå i ESC, tyvärr. Vi har röstat bort de bästa låtarna redan. Många av dem i finalen kommer gå bra här i Sverigen men inte i Europa.
@ros6830 Unfortunately she didn't win. I didn't watch one single show myself, so can't say much except that we're sending Eric Saade with the song "Popular".
@gnom1947 Popular is a typical Fredrik Kempe "song", half a sentance of lyrics and enough music to follow that, then looped enough times to reach the 3 min requirement. He had 2-3 "songs" in each part of the competition. To say that Saade won because of his great song is to lie blatantly, to say that he won due to his singing skills and/or talent is almost as bad a lie. He's pretty and they've given him a good show. Most importantly he's popular with the young girls who vote a lot.
@foreverAnnaa Haha,jo visst han han gav oss en tredje plats vilket var grymt,men tycker inte att han förtjänade att gå vidare pga att alla gick efter utseende.Fjortisar som ringer 24/7 till hans nummer.Inse att det fanns många andra som hade haft en BÄTTRE chans att vinna och till och med kanske hamna på en bättre plats.Inget illa ment eller så men uttrycker mig bara efter mina åsikter.Peace Annaa
Fattar inte hur den kunde missa finalen direkt. Enligt mig en klockren schlager.... kanske det som är problemet - att det låter lite för mycket 90-tal. Men diggar den hursom! Kan den bli den första från andra chansen att vinna allt? Den växer ju efter några lyssningar i alla fall...
@AmyLilies It's very simple. Legs are nice, but not very long. What is the solution? Short dress or skirt and shoes at very high heels. Ordinary shoes with such high heels are not suitable for dynamic performance. Was selected this option shoes simply do not accidentally fall off (and even in these shoes during a speech at the second chance Jenny stumbled ..). But maybe the average height of boots would look better ......
@Throku Good show - it is important; good song, good singer, good performance - no. Female teenagers determine the outcome of the contest. And what will happen next?
@TheAnimalZoe Jo, håller med. Jag minns att jag var så förvånad att G-son hade gjort en ok låt, men det är ju för att man kan ifrågasätta om han faktiskt har gjort den eller bara samplat olika ABBA-låtar och satt ihop dem.
Steps brought me here, got really curious of the original version. This is as good as ever very reminiscent of ABBA.
This song is going to be on Steps new album. Can’t wait to hear it in November.
Confirmed as their second single! Should hear it sooner 🤞
Steps need to borrow some of Jenny's dance moves!
It’s out now
It's out now and it is awesome! They also dropped a new video for it on their channel here.
I am shocked at how close the two versions sound. Jenny Silver did it herself - and it took five from STEPS to recreate it. They are both good - surprised this never went very far internationally.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ This. Steps brought me here, but love this artist too.
This should have won the finals. I could imagine it doing well in Eurovision.
Absolutely! My all time fave Mello song. Steps would do a good version of this too IMO!
I hope that now, with the Steps version, this song has the success that it worth. Wonderful, amazing, as any ABBA song.
The strength in depth of Sweden at Eurovision is crazy they are the Real Madrid of Eurovision
This song should be in spotify!!! ❤️❤️❤️
it is in the U.K...not sure about other reigions
Still not on the US Spotify, but the Steps cover is!
Ikr? It isn't in Spotify Latin America
this doesn't get old, it's an awesome bop
Go Jenny! Still love this song. ❤
I've heard it said that it's harder to win Melodifestivalen than Eurovision and this song proves it
Masterpiece honestly.
Eurovision is all about the country you represent rather than what you sing. If your country is popular and especially with your neighbours, you get votes. That is why a song with a good melody like this would get nowhere
Can´t believe this didn´t make it to the final, it´s a masterpiece...
Veryy talented singer! This song appears to be a modern thing written by Benny & Björn from ABBA.
Here's a big hug and lots of love from Germany! God, Jenny was just perfect! Congratulations Sweden, for such a great Melodienfestivalen! YOU ROCK!
First time I heard this I thought it was a lost song by ABBA never released. I so can hear them sing this. Would have been a No. 1 hit!
Steps have covered this for their new album ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've been with her in Portugal and she is just the kindest person ever... I'm a fan now :D:D:D:D
Jenny the best at this competition. A magnificent song, the fine singer, and the beautiful woman. If The swedes would choose her, I would vote for her many times and would like a victory for her, because she - the best. But they have taken away from themselves a victory... How it could be made? I don't understand... (Sorry for my English)
This song should have won!!! It's great!!
Many say that this is ABBA. My brother listened to this song and also said so. But maybe it's not ABBA, but simply very good music?
bästa bortröstade låten sedan Michelagelo
This song is so wonderful, soooo Swedish, but so Fantastic!!
Har aldrig tänkt förut på att det är lite ABBA-style över den här sången, förrän jag läste kommentarer. Bra är den iaf. Eller kanske just därför.
Den här hade tagit oss rakt i topp i Eurovision-finalen, och gjort alla öststater lyckliga!
Thanks for posting, brilliant track
Det är klart den bästa låten i Melodifestivalen ska hamna i andra chansen :(
Jag älskar hennes namn, det låter så snällt elr något, Typ världens bästa artist namn
Bästa låten i melodifestivalen. Visst är det en modern ABBA-låt, men jag gillar ju ABBA :-)
Fattar fortfarande inte varför den här låten inte vann hela Festivalen! Klockren!!!
Sweden, send this!!
It's the best song you have this year
Har kikat lite runt på utländska kommenrtarer på årets svenska festivallåtar. Denna tycks få minst negativa omdömen av dem alla. Verkar som de flesta därute i europa gillar denna låt.
Reminds me of As Good As New by ABBA.
Gilla om du hör på detta år 2012 :D
XD kanske innan också
men den är nice
ni kan också gilla om ni inte såg den 2012
XD
heja jenny silver
Fantastic xoxo
Fan va het hon e.
Steps! I’ve only just discovered my fave Steps song is a cover!
ABBA new Abba is born- THX Jenny. Love.
The moment I knew Claire’s vocals were gonna hit this bop I knew this was going to be next level!
I love...is really amazing :O Popular are great, I vote for Sweden this year, but this song is emotional! (from spain) Had to be in the final of Melodifestivalen!
Idags ABBA- Love this song. Även i Finland... Love you! Best for you Jenny! You are Suber .)) Best wishes all you swedish människorna som tycker om eurovision låterna!

Det här låten är så bra!

bakdansarna ser roliga ut!
WOW !!!!!!!!!!
Fab song I really like this well done Jenny xx
So beautiful ❤️❤️❤️🎼🎼🎼🎤🎤🎤🌹🌹🌹🤩🤩🤩
WOW ***** Saludos y buena suerte Jenny, desde Chile.-
For me personally, Eurovision song contest this year ended without beginning.
tumme upp för låten äger hoppas den går vidare min alla rösta på lördag.
Denne,Sverige;ja denne skulle dere ha sendt!
Gode ønsker fra Nabolandet Norge!
Upphotad ABBA-låt. Älskar denna. Denna hade garaterat gått långt i ESC. Det är denna typ av låtar som slår. Jag tror inte någon av de som är i finalen kommer slå i ESC, tyvärr. Vi har röstat bort de bästa låtarna redan. Många av dem i finalen kommer gå bra här i Sverigen men inte i Europa.
i love the HD of this video!!!
Näst bäst i årets festival.
Greatest song ever?
Allt med låten=Perfekt.
My 2nd favourite Melodifestivalen song this year =) Great song, great perfomance - and she looks just like me =L
This is so ABBA.
TACK!!!! äntligen en som lägger upp låtarna med stereoljud!
Love it!💜🕺🏼🕺🏼💯
i love her!!!!!!
Steps brought me here
great song
me encanta esta cancion da alegria
Will STEPS do this song justice. ? I can see it doing well in Sweden 🇸🇪 if its released there
@ros6830
Unfortunately she didn't win. I didn't watch one single show myself, so can't say much except that we're sending Eric Saade with the song "Popular".
Está canción me encanta, me recuerda mucho a Estolcomo. 🥰🥰🥰
Very nice! Świetne!
@gnom1947 Popular is a typical Fredrik Kempe "song", half a sentance of lyrics and enough music to follow that, then looped enough times to reach the 3 min requirement. He had 2-3 "songs" in each part of the competition.

Mycket bra arrangemanget.
Scenframträdandet är också bra. Björn Gren.
@Throku
Even if it's ABBA, it's not bad. Is "Oh Mama Popular" is better?
bra låt
ABBA-låten som Silver har blivit inspirerad av heter "As good as new" och kommer från albumet "Super Truper". Strax innan 1:00 hör ni...
SJUKT SNYGGT NUMMER!
Waiting for Steps cover
ABBA lives on!
@Lokahoitas1
This song was supposed to be in the final (and without second chance).
Fattar inte hur den kunde missa finalen direkt. Enligt mig en klockren schlager.... kanske det som är problemet - att det låter lite för mycket 90-tal. Men diggar den hursom! Kan den bli den första från andra chansen att vinna allt? Den växer ju efter några lyssningar i alla fall...

a well put together song that isn't as simple as many others, even if it does resemble abba a bit :P
Varför kallar folk det här ABBA? Det är snarare en klassisk svensk schlager. Kan inte minnas att ABBA gjorde såna här låtar
@nyqa den är ju Abba inspirerad =)
Mutch better with Jenny Silver voice and moves than the new cover with STEPS.
Heia Jenny, du er best!
@Throku
Good show - it is important; good song, good singer, good performance - no. Female teenagers determine the outcome of the contest. And what will happen next?
Det finns en tävling som heter second chance contest.
Där kom Sverige tvåa med denna låten.
Ifjol vann vi med Timotejs kom....
@TheAnimalZoe Jo, håller med. Jag minns att jag var så förvånad att G-son hade gjort en ok låt, men det är ju för att man kan ifrågasätta om han faktiskt har gjort den eller bara samplat olika ABBA-låtar och satt ihop dem.
Anyone come here from Steps version.
Jag älskar denna låt. Jag tycker att det skulle bli en jättebra låt för Nina o. Kim eller Steps också.
One decade later, and you got your wish 🤣
jaaaaa :P love this song :D
@Lenia007. Att Jenny Silver inte kunde ge oss någon 3:dje plats vet vi juh ingenting om, eftersom hon inte tävlade i ESC- finalen.
Härre jääävlar va sexigt hon va! o0 hoppas att hon går vidare! :D
@Throku I like this Jenny Silver song much more than Saade's Popular :-)
12 Point from spain SECOND CHANCE.
Det här är väl ett trevligt bidrag,
men vill bara höra det i MF-sammanhang,
där gör den sig bra! Retro.
Hahah älskar dans stegen hon tar
Låter verkligen som en ABBA låt!
que buen rollo da en esta cancion
Låter ju som en Abba låt! :D
