[SPE4KL3SS]

[Mehlwurm16]

Wonder how many pussies he ate out to get there ...

[lovetokawaii]

[lodrik13]

[TheMerisu]

He looks like child of Ian and Anthony from SMOSH. He got his hair from Ian, his face from Anthony. yep.

[natalieswdn93]

Szkoda, że Molly z nim zerwała :( Wyglądali na szczęśliwych :(

[AshtonFergie]

never knew there was such a word as "possibowl"

[gingergiggles]

Oh dear god. Your pretty! But you cant sing!

[Logahd1]

@gingergiggles can you sing better?

[gingergiggles]

@Logahd1 Yes, yes I can. But thats irrelevant.You dont have to be a professional singer to know bad singing when you hear it... Alright hes not THAT bad but hes supposed to be a professional. He sounds like hes singing karaoke :P Its not good enough for an international competition.

[Logahd1]

@gingergiggles ok

[MissMiniPie]

@gingergiggles FINALLY IWE MEET PEOPLE WHO UNDERSTAND ME,,, xD

Eric saaaaade sucks indeed.. -.-

[firrefisk2]

@gingergiggles He sang sso much better in Sweden <.<

[Zeiwo]

Haha sorry Eric, jag älskar dig<3 :)

[Vaney0]

oh god .. he's .. fucking .. hot <3

[gakerbkatagiri00]

さすがのエリックも緊張してんなぁ

[Mexx910]

damn<3

[PANTERABOMBER]

Of course it is Swedish, because the stage is a leathersuite men!

[MrEdje1975]

OMG............NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK.

[monroe96all]

Song is good, but singer not. Sanna Nielsen was so much better

[LillyRockStar1]

best performance

[emelting]

Eric looks like Ash from Pokemon. That explains the pokeball

[lyricistgirl]

I voted for this. I may not have done so if it was sung by someone less attractive...

[altecmoi]

What is in the screen ? A pokeball ?

[JonasSisterJS]

I was not proud to be a Swede at this moment..

[noporian]

Why did everyone love this so much? It was just repeating "i will be popular"

[EmmaLovesKevinMcHale]

@noporian he's hot? ;)

[noporian]

@EmmaLovesKevinMcHale Even if. This contest is about songs themselves, not the way the singer looks :I

[ZombieGirl345]

I bet sweden is in the sidelines face palming asking where his wife his

[Bowtiesarecoolno12]

I wish it was in Swedish so I wouldn't be able to understand the awful lyrics

[Hophion]

@Bowtiesarecoolno12

Its in english the orginal...

[llamaswillbemine]

What the fuck kind of line is, "stop don't say that it's impossible, cuz' I know it's possible"?

[TheLibke]

@llamaswillbemine It's a line that's true if you think about it

[llamaswillbemine]

@TheLibke I was trying to say it is stupid to rhyme "impossible" and "possible"

(at least that's what I assume that was their intent) in addition to it being completely redundant and therefore stupid. Sorry for not being clear.

[Suciaize]

Guidance: Flashing Images, What the hell? Where is the sexy alert? I don't really know how well he sings but ooh <3

[XxsweboyxX]

pokemon

[decepticonier]

0:36

why is there a big red pokéball in the background?!

[laseren1999]

@decepticonier i have no complaints? :3

[Bjarn999]

@decepticonier Coz we swed's love pokémon !

[ScientSmology]

@decepticonier because this is a stupid teenage song for Pokemon-nerds. I feel ashamed of being Swedish watching this...

[NekoPlusUsagi]

@ScientSmology Well Saade is overexposed so XD

And this is not a teenage song for Pokémon-nerds ... the thing back there is not a pokéboll ... but ... it sure looks like one.

[BAmse1337]

@decepticonier cuz he is going to catch 'em all! btw ashamed of being swedish..

[fireydraco]

@decepticonier It's a subliminal message telling everyone in Sweden to buy Pokemon games!

[HetaliaHitachiin]

@decepticonier Cherish ball

[ParinKarin]

I love eric saade <'333

[sasuke0491]

He can actually sing if you listen to the studio version, its just that he focused more on the dancing with took away from his singing ablilitys :/

[schorniflytothesky]

WTF a pokeball in the background :D

[tranceyspacer1993]

what the hell, the lyrics? >.< he'd be better off singing this in swedish, so that the voters dont know what it about

[ParinKarin]

@tranceyspacer1993 He need to sing in english so the swedish people don't undersand xD I come from Sweden and almost all my friends just understand "I will be popular". So if it was in swedish maybe he hasn't come to eurovission...

[tranceyspacer1993]

@ParinKarin ahahahaha serious? that explains a whole lot really!

[Hallonjuden]

@ParinKarin You just understood the part "I will be popular"? Jesus christ, bro. How is your english?

[WilliamGruberMusic]

why does everyone say that he can't sing he sings great just listen to all of his other music!

[BABYii93]

he CAN sing :)

[thodorAS3343]

And the pokemon company banned this video for copyrits ...

( says the link when they discover it )

[EdwardCullenLoveYou]

The lyrics look like they're from High School Musical. But... hot guy, catchy song, great dancing, all together a fantastic song! Love from Estonia <3

[prettywoman0501]

this boy is so hot!!!!!!!



[ida1990ish]

@prettywoman0501 Sweden you know...;P

[missjojogill]

@aengelalive are you saying blue can't sing , coz they can sing and they are good at it! blue ar better eric saade , but eric is alright

[llamallover7]

@missjojogill just my opinion :/

[TheFireWyrm]

I want that pokeball to capture him already so I can treat my bleeding ears

[Uwirubi]

BoneyMmusic!!!

[Swe303]

Svenskar är seriöst omöjliga att göra nöjda. Tycker han var grym i alla fall.

[abbe5225]

He said that he dont even like this song and he didnt want to sing it

[MaromoGuay]

he is so gay

[lincsposter]

@MaromoGuay And you are from Sri Lanka!!!! I suggest you keep your sad views to yourself! We judge only on performance not on sexuality! Europe is in the 21st Century! Comments like yours are not welcome!

[pessimistpojken]

I'll make a confession to you all, Sweden hates him. He was chosen by the 13-14 year old fan-girl crowd of Sweden. It was either him or another girl-idol.

Yup, thats what Sweden has evolved into.

[RosellaDeHenry]

He was better than the most

[irecatori]

Pokemon can still beat you!

[penguinsluveremily]

The Pokeball in the background ever ceases to amuse me.

[XennaXDemyx]

...I wonder how many people had fits from the lights XDD

[Blueknightex]

Any one here Eric Saade fans? Tell my why the Pokeball?

Is he a fan of it?

[MegaHondel]

@Blueknightex Trollololololololol

[BbrokenAngel95]

Is sweden full of all kinds of Basshunters????

[Thatguywithlogic]

If his voice wasn't so damned nasally he could've won.

[gingergiggles]

Why does everyone sing in English? I love songs where I have no idea what their saying.

[ProudToNotBeRacist]

@gingergiggles I completely agree. Some of the singers that didn't win could have even won if they sung in their original language, because most of the time it sounds better :)

[jmefj]

@gingergiggles here's a clip when he sings in swedish LOL

[MrGiffyBear]

@gingergiggles I'm pretty sure, could be wrong, it's because Americans write the lyrics for them. So they find a performer from the country who can sing in english, or find someone with a dual citizenship.

[Hallonjuden]

@MrGiffyBear Americans certainly don't write the songs for eurovision song contest. Almost everyone in Europe knows good english, except for countries like France and Germany. Atleast us scandinavians have flawless english.

[MrGiffyBear]

@Hallonjuden Well Lena's Satellite was written by Americans. (She was German too)

[gingergiggles]

@MrGiffyBear Don't think it works that way dude.... Americans are, as far as I know, not involved with eurovision at all, as we are not European so.... 

[MrGiffyBear]

@gingergiggles Lena's Satellite was written by Americans (2010 Eurovision winner)

[gingergiggles]

@MrGiffyBear Realy? o.O 

[MrGiffyBear]

@gingergiggles Yeah, read it on Wikipedia xD and she said it on a German interview.

[XxsweboyxX]

@gingergiggles test out "Den snenska bjornstamen" it is swedich

[lvosgien1]

@gingergiggles so it's a good sing for you ;D. as far i am concerned i'm french but i don't want know the translate of this song :o. (excuse-me if i speak a bad english :( )

[CrappyQualityWarfare]

@gingergiggles are you like seven?

[gingergiggles]

@CrappyQualityWarfare Some times, depends on my mood. To what are you referring to? Iv commented a few times on this video.

[katieeee1414]

this should of won.

[Schneespeedheatshot]

i love you eric saade

[valentass88]

wtf

[macdaddy8224]

nice how did he steel dantes jacket and not get killed

[unnunn12]

Wait, he's not a Viking!!!

[EozOrange]

I really don't like his voice. It's an alright song, but... his voice ruins it for me.

[12345TheRonan]

KIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[DalianCruzLeon]

a pokeball in the background!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Funkenish]

@Curcumaable Så ungefär 30% av vår befolkning är alltså homosexuella? Hur fungerar det när vi har en konstant tillväxt av populationen. Din teori fungerar kanske i en kontinent av den tredje världen.

[Ghozter22]

@TheMaybeme123 Han är skit ung och tror att han är skit snygg han är bara pinsam också -.-

[Sweetellaish]

Stolt svensk :)

(Proud sweed :) )

[TheJulie0508]

[Glamberter]

[Didotime]

It's a verry good song. Jedward is good but Eric Saade is better. :)

[julialovesJedward]

Jedward is much better ! (:

[kunyakif]

Possibly the worst singer ineurovision history...he's totaly out of tune

[CorvoDellaFoschia]

oh my, eric what are you talking about? you're ALREADY popular

[edvimalo79822]

This guy is ''poupular'' in Sweden once a year, and that is when it's the Swedish Grand Prix (Melodifestivalen) in February-March. I haven't herd a shit from him since June and it's October now!

[xxxangel086xxx]

[ErikaD1998]

We send an awful song to Eurovision, and look what happens. We come third. Wow.

---

And I don't know what the big deal is. Eric isn't that hot, he can't sing very well, but he's (almost) famous.

It's just like Justin Bieber.
