This is pure brilliance. Such a simple beautiful song, sung to absolute perfection. Would be a deserved Eurovision Song Contest Winner in my estimation. Fantastic stuff!
I wonder how well this song would've done at the Eurovision... there were mostly dance songs in the final in 2008, this power ballad would've certainly stood out!
@jakempson I absolutely agree. I cannot believe that I have only just seen that performance. Loved the song from Melodifestivalen album and ♥ this years "I'm In Love" too. However, Sanna has such a powerful voice that the live performances are just stunning. I loved the Soundfactory mix, but after watching this - Wow!
I still can't get over the fact that this song ended up second, although it got by far the most votes. Stupid international juries. This song was, and still is, the best we've had in our competition next to Euphoria.
There were no international juries, it was juries from different parts of sweden. The international juries entered melodifestivalen for the first time 2009
Problem is that the points from the televotes weren't fluid. Sanna would've gotten 132 points no matter if she got 1 more vote than Charlotte or 1 million more votes. That the points from the televotes is now calculated using the percentage of votes someone got is so much better. With todays voting system, Sanna would've been in Moscow.
When people vote in the Eurovision song contest they vote for a song they are touched by and this song is so beautiful it brings tears. The drag que... I mean Perrelli brought a musicians song, full of professionalism. Nothing wrong with that otherwise but people are not touched by it, I didn't feel a thing when I listened to it and probably nobody else did either. The Swedish people voted for Sanna and the jury for Charlotte...
It is such bullshit! The goal for a country must be to get as much likes from people all over the world... NOT from the elite in the world! It is such socialdemocratic stupidity... I am also a swede... STOP! the jurysystem!
Sitting here alone with my memories Staring at a picture of you and me They say I look fine but if walls could talk They'd tell you all about how much I break apart I think we were right but we did it wrong Ever since you left me I just can't go on No, I can't even read the news today 'Cause everything reminds me of yesterday Empty room Empty heart Since you've been gone I must move on Empty room I never realised it could make me cry To hear the children laugh and play outside A walk in the park shouldn't be that bad But everything without you seems to make me sad I thought we were good, we were meant to be The way it turned out is still a mystery No, I can't even read the news today Reminds me of yesterday Empty room Empty heart Since you've been gone I must move on Empty space Lonely days My life goes on Just like the moon And to sail across the sky alone Forever trying to find its home I can't believe I have to say I don't know where you are today Empty room Empty heart Since you've been gone I must move on Empty space Lonely days My life goes on Just like the moon Empty room Empty room
Came back to watch this bc 2022 Hold Me Closer - Cornelia reminds me this song. Sadly I believe this year Sweden will also send the most famous person instead of the better song like it happen back then with Hero. Sanna's Empty Room was an easy top 3.
A total disgrace, sending Hero. This was our song, the Swedish song for this year. So emontional, som good voice, so perfect. and we send the silver monster.....
@@escfan2706 although I think empty room deserve a win in melo, but 2008 was the wrong year. Hero deserved to win that year. It was completely robbed in esc though.
Tomma rum, tomma tuttar. Sen du har varit borta, har jag rest mig framåt. Tomma rum och ensamma. Livet går vidare, precis som månen. Du lovade att vi skulle resa genom himmelen helt ensam, för att hitta mitt hem. Jag kan förfan inte förstå det här, jag vet inte var du är idag Tomma rum
Mr President, I have an idea that could lead to a profitable deal part for all sides in the conflict. South of Crimea there are, ackording to investigations rich oil and gasfinds. Ukraine could be offered to take part in the extraction of the finds in a 50% agreement. That both parts finances development of finds equally, and both share the profits with 50% each. In this way there is no risk for extraction being blocked by problems between US rules and a foreign oil company like french Total etc.(don´t remember exact name of the oilcompanies involved.). The referendum can be put on a hold until normal conditions are met or just be of counseling character. And as soon as the deal is agreed on, normal military conditions can take place and go back to 2013 conditions. It´s an idea to close the deal now, because it´s impossible to say how a new ukrainian governement in May will say to the deal. Yours sincerely, Håkan Liljeberg
När jag höra den här låten så tänkte jag på det som hände på skolan när jag blev mobbad och kände mig utfryst av dom som retade mig då kände jag mig som empty room
Sanna hade troligtvis aldrig vunnit i hela Europa...låten är lite för oorginell för att folk ska komma ihåg den! Den hade bara tävlat mot Frankrikes årliga ballad..
The best songs rarely wins because Sweden has since a couple of years have introduced a jury-system... Even though the piece has won the people´s vote...? Why? Because socialists are fixated with the idea to controle everything! To make sure that the winner is representative for the elite´s political opinion what is a representative song. Preferably it should represent a minority, HBTQ, or any other political idea! And that is why the finnish contribution didn´t win. This is such bullshit! This system that doesn´t respect the people´s voice is splitting us up and make us weaker.. This has to stop immediately...! I am a swede myself..
Sanna has to have the nicest and best voice in the entire world!! I have never heard anyone sing as good as her!
This and ”Undo” were her best songs! ”Undo” was my no.1 this year! Regards from Romania!
Älskar dig tej älskar dig och sanna

Jag älskar sanna Nielsens röst! Hon är underbar!
Слушая ваше исполнение, получаешь истинное удовольствие!!! Спасибо!!!
Sainta Nielsus is so talented omg I love her
Cry everytime i hear this so great
Sanna always show a lot of emotion in her music i always liked this kind of girls
This is exactly how I feel right now, I just can't go on.
Maybe, the best song ever in Melodifestivalen´s history.
Why can I only click the like button once?
Älskar dän här sången
2020 and I can't forget this video, what an amazing song.
Preciosa balada y muy bien interpretada.
Great song, great singer.... Sanna Nielsen, you rock!!
A much better than "Undo." Her vocal range is impressive. This was a commanding performance.
+Angelo Casiano : Agree. I voted for her in 2008 and hoped she would win, but sadly she didn't.
She had the Swedish peoples votes but lost on the jury votes.

Den här låten väcker många starka minnen. Minns en gång när jag fes och så plötsligt var jag själv i rummet. Bara jag och ett "empty room".
It kinda reminds me Everything - Anna Vissi! Excellent performance though from Sanna
The best
Sitting here alone with my memories
Staring at a picture of you and me
They say I look fine but if walls could talk
They'd tell you all about how much I break apart
I think we were right but we did it wrong
Ever since you left me I just can't go on
No, I can't even read the news today
'Cause everything reminds me of yesterday
Empty room
Empty heart
Since you've been gone
I must move on
Empty room
I never realised it could make me cry
To hear the children laugh and play outside
A walk in the park shouldn't be that bad
But everything without you seems to make me sad
I thought we were good, we were meant to be
The way it turned out is still a mystery
No, I can't even read the news today
Reminds me of yesterday
Empty room
Empty heart
Since you've been gone
I must move on
Empty space
Lonely days
My life goes on
Just like the moon
And to sail across the sky alone
Forever trying to find its home
I can't believe I have to say
I don't know where you are today
Empty room
Empty heart
Since you've been gone
I must move on
Empty space
Lonely days
My life goes on
Just like the moon
Empty room
Empty room
yeah
She is the real winner!! :')

but hero was a hit all over the Europe that year so what about that
* Martyna * Well it wasn’t, it placed 12th in the semi with the televote. Clearly it was quite disliked

I am belgain and I liked Hero, but this whas so mutch better!!
En av de bästa melodifestivalsögonblicken någonsin.
I actually preferred "hero" - but "undo" is one of the best entries ever
Min favorit❤
A brilliant Cimbrian-Teuthonic woman´s effort...
another top 3 for sweden
Otroligt fin sång! Vilken inlevelse! Synd att den inte vann uttagningen. Den hade haft stor chans att vinna hela Eurovision song contest.
Uff!! ¡QUÉ BONITA!
Really good song! It reminds me Jessica Garlick (UK 2002)
Should have won, for sure!
They could win. THIS COULD EASILY WIN. Why did they send Hero..
ask the judges
Sanna won televoting
🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜💜
this song is better than "undo"... but "undo" is good song to
Sin lugar a dudas la mejor canción de Sanna Nielsen
This is a Sanna's better song
... life goes on, just like the moon :P
wtf?!
They should have a competition where all numbers coming second could compete. This would’ve won!
Hennes ex har ogillat detta. Fantastisk röst!
❤❤❤❤🌹
This should have won so beatiful
She is beautiful
Lovery.
Grattis!! :)

Gosh, the lyrics are soo true... :(
Jag tänker på min katt petzy jag förlorade förra året...efter 15 år tillsammans. Empty room.
Simple staging, simple outfit, simple (and cheesy lyrics), but Sanna's voice is so full of emotion. Should have won
She should have won
should have won....and represented Sweden and would have won the FInal...
Me encanta!!!!! Me recuerda a Celin Dion.
That's so much better than the UNDO crap this year. At least the lyrics make sense
The best#mittsannajag
Deb här och Euforia måste ju vara det bästa bidragen mot esc de senaste tio åren.
Jättebra 3

Was so good a shame you did not sent this
Så ofattbart vackert! Så ofattbart vacker!

Why was Sanna's face like that in the end?
Beacuse she was touched by the song and supported by the audience
När jag höra den här låten så tänkte jag på det som hände på skolan när jag blev mobbad och kände mig utfryst av dom som retade mig då kände jag mig som empty room
She lost a child....thats whats shes singing about.. So tragic and hard...💔💔💔💔
Denna balladen och för att du finns med Sonja Aldén är nog dem bästa som har varit med i Melodifestivalen
Ja
We listened to Everything by Anna Vissi with bad covering...
Men snälla Sanna! Du gör micke ledsen :'( *Gillar*
Sanna hade troligtvis aldrig vunnit i hela Europa...låten är lite för oorginell för att folk ska komma ihåg den! Den hade bara tävlat mot Frankrikes årliga ballad..
😿 jag saknar dig Petzy
So gokd grreeti gs from denmark have won the whole
Why did this not win
I cant understand why this not won?

Mycket bättre som sångerska än programledare.
@Pencer2
Yes, Charlotte, the alien. Charlotte has had more publicity than Sanna, that´s why I think she won, sadly enough..
No wonder people were upset this didn't win. This is so much better than that garbage "Hero".

Först ett par år senare hur hör jag hur jävla klockren texten är. Det är inte den vanliga stuket utan riktigt välgenomarbetad text.
