Charlotte - Take Me To Your Heaven Eurovision 1999 Winner

[einherje71]

Veldig bra.

[velesuper]

Bra låt och bra sång som Charlotte

[MrPekisha]

Bjorn and Benny just know how to write winning song :)

[Blueknightex]

@DragonsLord101 is that really him? The one who won Eurovision on 2009? 

[Blueknightex]

Not a bad song. Pretty good entry Sweden. It kind of reminds me of ABBA's Waterloo though xD but of course because ABBA are Swedish and I heard that one of the song writers is a member of ABBA too :D

[Hammersch]

shes a fuckdoll!

[Andrei091989]

i love this song!!!!!!

[TheGamer2001]

Its so sad Just look at her now and look at her performance 2009 Here she is simply ALIVE and NATURAL it is sad to look at her after this performance But her voice is still AMAISING even after 10 ears! Go Sharlotte!

[LadyGagaChannelVideo]

DAMN SHE´S HOT!!!

[CJBR1966]

@swedenbabe94 I haven´t anything against Sweden or Swedish people , but I think that´s song seems a weaker copy of ABBA. I adored your last song in Swedish language, truley a great song and great song of Jill Johnson, it was much better than the Charlotte´s song the winner of 1999., it´s my opinion, your can tkink of different..

[bellosh123]

@CJBR1966 it is not a copy from ABBA, it's the swedish music style ..

[Amienee84]

Du e bäst, Charlotte!

[Bulk39]

@oki123oki123 Björn Gustavsson 

[LovleyMsGirl]

Hon är så duktig!

She is so good!

[Aleka93]

Charlotte is very beautiful, but I don't like this song. Her 2008 song was way better.

Croatia or Germany should have won the '99 contest. They had the best songs that year.

[LadyGagaChannelVideo]

DAMN SHE´S HOT!!! AND GREAT SONG;)

[LadyGagaChannelVideo]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!! AND DAMN SHE´S HOT!!!

[CJBR1966]

A bad copy of ABBA, nil points from Portugal, she did´t deserve won.

[dave34ni]

lol inspieradavstatyer,,,im from uk and i sing this in swedish word for word,

[inspireradavstatyer]

@dave34ni That's a lol indeed ;)

[mrprump]

Abba copycat!

Bad Song

[nonamer88]

@mrprump well it was written by Benny from ABBA as far as I know, so not that strange

[SofiiaS]

@mrprump it was written by björn and benny, if you would had listen to what they say.

[Dauphin365]

She´s soo hot! Lucky Swedish guys.

[TheVamization]

@Dauphin365 yaeh, she is married to some italian guy, so... :P

[ouyeso]

@Dauphin365 very ugly (väldigt ful)

[mavenfrankeus]

@Dauphin365 she is NOT hot, and yes, I am Swedish

[aberdeenangel]

loved this song!! was brilliant

[rybaczka555]

?????? that's ok, but Alexander Rybak's song is better:)))))

[Anyta4321]

Me encanta esta canción!

Saludos desde España

[Alex500st]

why is..??

[MrLucyball]

Yes I agree, It has been my fav euro song too.I knwe it would win, I even won money on it.Thanks Charlotte.

[deloufu]

I love this song too & what I like about this is when the man said this song might have been written by Benny & Bronj (Please forgive me for my lousy spelling but you get the idea). To me it sounds like something they would have written.

[SaNBeanz]

I LOVE this song! One of my personal favourite ESC songs of all time!

[UKMBNG]

HAHAAHAHA.

[kzbxvz]

Bad picture quality!

[wsvqbef7]

to inspireradavstatyer: in MGP Nordic and JESC we sing in swedish - i JESC blev Mimmi Sande´n 6:a trots halsproblem och i MGP Nordic blev Ulrik Munther 1:a . Två mycket bra och originella låtar som nog gjort sig bra även i stora ESC.

[inspireradavstatyer]

There's one thing that makes me a little bit sad. After winning she sang the last chorus in Swedish - and it was the last time a Swedish word was heard in this competition. It's 10 years ago. I wonder when we will dare to sing in our own language again.

[PN9K5]

@inspireradavstatyer This is so talentless ass can be...........Carola 1390000 This 414335......... How mucth is Carola???????? 45000000000000000?

[inspireradavstatyer]

@PN9K5 Sorry, where did that come from? You seem to be full of shit and therefore I'm not interesting in talking to you. Goodbye.

[PN9K5]

@inspireradavstatyer Give me a break..........

[beebeeisland]

@inspireradavstatyer Can you find it on youtube where she sings the last chorus in Swedish? I'd love to hear it.

[SofiiaS]

@beebeeisland It's called Tusen och en natt in Swedish, try to search on that

[Viaamtrak]

@inspireradavstatyer You have a wonderful language (Swedish), but only 8 million people speak it daily, and few more really understand it. ABBA set the precedent by singing in a language understood by more people to draw from a larger audience. This is the same reason that all pilots learn English to fly.

[inspireradavstatyer]

@Viaamtrak I don't care about how many people speaking it. There's gotta be some damn limit on how much we can compromise with our own language and culture.

Anyway, soon we'll be sending songs in Arabic.

[Viaamtrak]

@inspireradavstatyer Actually, Chinese is the most spoken language in the world. Perhaps we should all learn the language of our "new masters." I can understand how you feel to a point.

[Viaamtrak]

I am a Francophon originally from Canada, but I am now subjected to fast food restaurants in the USA that have their entire menu orderboard and workforce in Mexican Spanish. I know Spanish, but not the slang and idiomatic Mexican dialects that are used here now. My Spanish speaking relatives from South America cannot understand the Mexican slang, which is now even being taught in the schools as Spanish.

Both ESC is a contest that goes across frontiers. Keep Melodifestivalen in Swedish.

[pabz78]

@inspireradavstatyer

 u need to get a life..LOL

[Casar1973]

The mighty spirit of Benny Andersson still has a stronghold over the scandinavian woo. As you can hear.

[headphone355]

Talking of Benny, some guy told me he was the arranger of this song.

[Casar1973]

Not true. It was put together by Gert Lengstrand and Marcos Ubeda (lyrics) and Lars "Dille" Diedricson (music).

[musicloverSerge]

the heritage of ABBA is still felt in the song

[Vidcar1]

Makes it even better!

[raspberry479]

i would have voted for the swedish entry if she had sung in the nude. just an observation.

[Vidcar1]

Hahahahaha.

[luciremagazine]

The original lyrics are far more meaningful—pity they had to be trivialized to suit an English translation.

[20Unbelievable06]

SO true! The english lyrics suck compared to the swedish!

[SaNBeanz]

Hahaha XD

[polishlover83]

12 POINTS FOR TITS... SWEDEN ;d

[missheist]

damn she is sexy

[Benio96lbn]

bad graphic but good song

[mustafagvc]

Siqtir Berbat Bir şarkı...

[MJFanet]

It's called "Tusen och en natt" on Swedish. ( To DontSigh )

[DontSigh]

Det irriterar mig att jag inte kommer ihåg vad den heter på svenska...

ps. Jag kommer från Hovmantorp (samma stad som Charlotte!) jag har träffat henne!

[actionhjelten]

Tusen och en natt

[director2555]

oh the backround big shiny thing is a sun and i thought it was a luna park roll lol

[pholklorista]

love u love u love u <3 <3 <3 (L)

[inspireradavstatyer]

In an interview she told that she had a hard time singing tihs song here. 15 minutes before entering the stage a spokesperson from the Swedish Television told her off and made her cry. All her make-up was running down and it's very difficult to sing right after crying.

[Wall1n]

I looove you, Charlotte! <333

Jag älskar dig, Charlotte!!! <3333

[thefsxflyer2]

äkta svensk dansbandsmusik :P

[HelenaChristensen]

talk about 10 years later til the song starts! lol

[qustav37]

vettefan

[BOJKO1988]

G O V N A!!!!!!!

[asliana1999]

jag älskar dig charlotte  hon van när jag föddes

[thordurfrimann]

hbalazs94 I agree with you, Selma was better.

[thordurfrimann]

:Þ.........

[hbalazs94]

12 points are going to Iceland

10 points to Germany

8 points to Sweden

I'm sorry Sweden but Iceland entry was better and she's sing of luck (it a kind of personal)

& the take me to your heaven it' about love i think Iceland was better & Germany Too!!!!

[greecerlysucks]

Super song very nice preformance!

[kungeeeennnn]

She's the best, Fuck the rest :))

[YumeHoghler]

fin inlednig

[bam456456]

inledningen till varje låt

[LiveOnAPrayer]

vad fan var det för skit i början??

[LittleAngelic88]

We were really great that year,I mean we won the whole thing :P

Its a great song,better in english then swedish.

[elotroichifer]

Selma was better

[deniadav]

una cancion con poca imaginacion, cantada con desgana. THE REAL WINNER WAS SELMA

[renerbaseter]

la diganisima ganadora fue PERELLI,se impuso y consigui su dinisimo triunfo es una cancion que transimte mucha alegria, me encanta

[deniadav]

lamento no compartir tu gusto. Suecia ha llevado canciones muy buenas a eurovision, yno es de recibo que ganen con una cancion que es una fotocopia de abba, con los solos de piano, y por mucho que fueran los 25 años de waterloo. la de selma, tiene ritmo, mensaje, es optimista y se dejó la piel en el escenario.mis preferidas de ese año eran noruega, bosnia, e israel.

[lynxe22]

tu gusto deja mucho que desear si te gustaban noruega e israel, barff

[deniadav]

por lo menos eran originales y no una mala imitacion de abba

[wishmaster198]

abba styled.... 10 years later than this and 30 years later than waterloo still sweden cant get over abba. and it seems that europeans have understand thats why the end at the bottom (even though they have great songs)

[AdamSpjuth]

CCCCCCHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR­RRRLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTT­TTTTTTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

älskar dig

[garrychelsea]

waterloo with different words

[95kittens]

I agree, It sound pretty stolen to me :S

[Bluerberry1234]

stolen is maybe not the word but....

it's actually benny and bjorn from abba who wrote it :)

[95kittens]

ooohhh... than it makes sence ;)

[eggsneckan]

No they didn't. It's written by Gert Lengstrand and Marcos Ubeda.

[KazamaKetchup]

Vart fick du det ifrån :S ?

[Jenzzin]

De roliga är att framträdandet inte ens var nått speciellt..men jag tror hon rodde hem det för att låten fastnar nästan direkt när man hör den, sen kanske även texten spelade in. Har dock fått höra i efterhand att bidragen det året var usla..men det känns meningslöst att säga at det var därför hon vann, för hon sjöng låten med bravur, och jag tycker Hero är bättre för denna e lite uttjatad nu..!!!

[inspireradavstatyer]

Ja, 1999 anses vara den sämsta Eurovision-finalen någonsin... men den förtjänade ändå att vinna och passade perfekt in i ABBA-vågen som gick över Europa just det året.

[Thapogge]

shes hot there not now!

[Unklebillybob]

Who was it that won Eurovision 2008?

[rowo8]

Russia: Dima Bilan - Believe

[Tubalover95]

Russia, with Dima Bilan

the song was called "Believe"

[ryanwexford]

pity he did, worst winner ever after, yug, est, and latvia

[reymicman]

This the best eurovision song ever.Much better than "hero".

[Xlungel]

She looked pretty back then :)

[Fantasygold]

Sweden rules ^^

But we should sing on Swedish some year ;)

[Dimpedicurs]

SPAIN WIN FOR THE BACK (jeje-hahaha) This song is horrible for win

No me gusta la cancion

This year is horrible stage and horribles songs

[inspireradavstatyer]

Why is everybody saying she was more beautiful then? I remember in 1999 how people said she looked like a slut. Therefore, I have a small suggestion: Let's leave her look alone and focus on her potential as a performer instead.

[DoloresT13]

omg what e sh*t,croatia was better

[chelseina]

she was so much beautiful then!

[saltpillur]

this isn't that good song, not a winner song!

Selma from Iceland is wayy better!

All out of a luck one of the greatest song ever!

[Cranny71]

Charlotte is a great singer. But back then she looked a whole lot better.

[aqualilyjames]

AWESOME SONG.

anyone else sweden should have won this year ?

get back to me please :) xxx

[shm984]

i do!!! xxx

[aqualilyjames]

totally, im SO annoyed !!

did you like any others this year ?

xx

[BouncealongInf]

I preferred Empty Room to HERO sorry.

From UK.

[NoelSetsuko]

ooo yes! i loved hero this year, it was amazing... i expected sweden, iceland, greece or ukraine to win this year, russia wasn't that good at all, but the guy was cute!

[silenceofthelamb]

That guy looked cross-eyes to me.

bleh

[joonas7]

nope, they shouldn't have won.

[silenceofthelamb]

I thought sweden should have won. definitely.

great song, and dancing.

[aqualilyjames]

Awesome.

Everyone else replied to my comment has insulted sweden this year.

Not even from Sweden :) x

[silenceofthelamb]

i wanted either sweden or ukraine to win. but the lyrics of the ukraine song aren't as good as hero's. i even have the song on my mp3 and i listen to it everyday. i still dont get how russia won, and i think charlotte's voice is amazing,and she is very pretty.

[JAJAKOKOBOB]

I come from sweden and i love sweden!

[agparedes]

at that year i wanted selma from iceland to win. i prefered 'hero' to 'take me to your heaven', but this one is nine years back... anyway, charlotte is a very good singer!

[Eksudo]

sounds like a abba ripoff song

[Nafijasisic]

everything is amazing what charlotte sang...she is a great singer realy,she has damng good voice...with love MERIMA...

[Margarita1809]

1:06-1:13

и здесь 1:38-1:42 watch?v=nCISSGjcHL4

Плагиат?!

[XPooh3r]

Просто национальная еврейская мелодия.

А Гвен её аранжировала...

[Margarita1809]

Спасибо, а то я уж испугалась...

[bnrockstar365]

Hero was absolutely amazing!

[nadukas]

Täck så mycket! Brå!

[xfort4]

She was really a beautiful girl, she's the very winner 2008, hero is amazing!

[luffdaddy2]

"hero".

[CheshireQueen1]

She would have won in 2008 if it wasn't for the f***** tele-voting! We'll all give Russia 12 points so they don't cut off the gas.. etc..

[irishlawrence88]

lol Charlotte minus the huge amount of botox- she was so much better looking!

[zoul86]

Botox isn't the only thing that she got in her face ;)

This song also gives me the creeps, it's like something carola could sing in a "livets ord" church -.-"

[YukiKirai]

so fucking right.

[KarinSverige]

She was also almost 10 years younger...

[Makkelisch]

Jag var fyra år när jag såg detta program vilket jag kommer ihåg, jag är än stolt över att hon vann 1999 för då skulle Eurovision hållas i Sverige år 2000 mellenieskiftet eller nåt sånt hette det. Go Charlotte! XD

[Zhirgoyt1991]

this song is much better in swedish, "Tusen o en natt"

[Nnemi]

denna e ju mky bättre än Hero iaf. Den här e ju iallafall helt ok. Men 1999 tyckte man ju den va skitbra, iaf jag XD haha

[HerEvilEyez]

sverige har takida, in flames och sonic syndicate.. tycker dom slår rätt så många amerikanska band iaf =)

[strateaskott]

oh my god!!!!!!!!she is so young here and beautiful!!!!now in eurovision 2008 she looks like a woman that has done 100 botox !!!

[kilomekilome]

can be in english ? i like her performance in 1999 and this last one in 2008...a great singer..,..,greetings

[EddieGuerrero1967]

Hero is 1 billion times better than that Song!!!!

[GrayPig]

hyffsat låt.

[iglav]

"Hero" is so million times better than this dull song

[Flugan91]

no pe

[sorrowisgood]

grrrr.. that song.. ! okay its good and all.. but come on it only had to get 3 less points! then we would have won! come on!.. But anyways im happy that we got more points than her this year, not being mean or anything.

[alexandermkk]

18 place 2008* not 17th

[Tripl3H1995]

yes ... hero is better

[Cheeseruler]

song hero is better :)

[88vALeRy]

Here she looks much more better than now. This hair is better to her.

[EriicTheKing]

... 1st place in 1999 :( 17th place in 2008 :(

[Lycosaa]

amy diamond ftw!

[lifecycle42]

congratulations.loves from TURKEY

[dankesehr101]

Actually, Charlotte sounds here a touch like Nana Mouskouri. What a different singing style compared to that in 2008! IMO, she does have terrific vocals and can sing different genres of music equally well.

At last, don't mind what the others comment on your look and keep up the good work. Forever we'll root for you!

[MATTEUS19]

Denna e bra men hero suger balle

[ReosAggu]

..wake up ppl-those who insists that her face nowdays is like that because 9 years hav passed...her eyes reach her ears..literally...her song hero is kool

[BastardsParade]

Hahahaha "her eyes reach her ears..literally"

thats true man :P

she is a foul creature

[silenceofthelamb]

thats not true. in eurovision 2008 she simply wears a lot of make up on the corners of her eyes, her eyes arent that big. She looks very pretty in the music video of the 2008 song.

[xXGrevenXx]

agree with Rushgoon1... my god the expectations was high this year and she didn't even end up in top 5 as many said she would do

[febbecool]

gillar den här :)

[CZeyn]

This one is better than hero, sanna nilsen should have won!!! :D

[hiw1000]

She was pretty. The song sounds very ABBA. But nice song... as well as Hero

[narognarog]

here she looks nice... but nowadays she looks f***ed up... plastic surgery??

[mangeito]

will you look better in 9 years from now?

[eurovisioon2008]

she doesn't have any plastic surgery what is your problem? She's only 33 for fuck sake.

[Rushgoon1]

why do we, sweds, always thinks that we win everytime? The songs that we send really suck balls.

[Ekowow]

Go sweden. its a shame we didnt win yesterday/today(went on over midnight here in sweden). This song rule and we have won eurovision four times. And ABBA's song watterloo has bean woted the best eurovision winner EVER!!

GOOOOOOOOO SWEEEEEEEEEEDEEEEEEEEN!!!!!
