Amerikanen Reacts to Svenska Klassiker: Lena Philipsson - Det gör ont

I listened to "Det gör ont" for the first time. Here's my reaction.
Here's the Spotify playlist of all of the reactions I've done: open.spotify.com/playlist/5Dz...

[@snaxon]

Yeah, It's truly a banger. It's a great example of the classic Mello song, including the "compulsory schlager key rise" at the finale of the song. Orup and Lena had a very successful period of collabs btw, her best period artistically, imho... Great that you can appreciate this!

[@peppermintcrush5794]

Se den live från Melodifestivalen. Koreografin är lika klassisk som låten i sig!

[@swedishgaygirl6078]

Jag skulle precis säga det! Vad den kvinnan gör med mickstativet 😜

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

Maybe I have something to do now for Tuesday Night Hang!

@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 Just my thought! kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3jYp6h5l8d-rZo

[@herrgoteborgare]

@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 Melodifestivalen är inte en renodlad musiktävling. Framförandet, koreografin mm är en lika stor del. Att bara LYSSNA på en låt från Melodifestivalen ger inte en rättvis bild av akten som helhet.

[@Huxteble]

@@herrgoteborgare men detta projekt går ut på att reagera på musik, inte på en melloakt som helhet.

[@chalphon4907]

This was such an epic flipping moment when she won. She tried so hard to win Melodifestivalen in the 80's and was close but never succeded. Then she came back 20 years later as a favour to her ol' pal Orup and this performance is what happened. I'm getting both goose bumps and teary eyed...

[@Jontor11]

Talent show performance for sure. Her live performance of this is iconic.

[@josefinelagerstrom2643]

You really need to watch the live performance. Just do it. Take the Eurovision version, so you can hear the English version. But yeah, her stage performance is... Unique. 🙈🙈🙈

[@thehoogard]

nah, it's crap. I don't know if she was sick or something but that performance was just no.

[@peppermintcrush5794]

No, not the Euorivison version. The translation is really bad!!

[@emlgf]

this song is my childhood, i cannot explain how many times we replayed this song on our 6h bus trip to Fjällen haha

[@chalphon4907]

That makes me feel old...

[@vendelayindustries]

One of the greatest swedish artists. Lots of hits! Unfortunetely she never got a break outside of Sweden, after doing some atempts in the late 80's/early 90's.

[@neverlandtribe235]

I feel like a hatch from my childhood just opened. The nostalgia!

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

It's what I'm here for!

[@Merecir]

Lena is a goddess. That whole album is a huge tower of BANGERS!

[@C.Silfverbielke]

Do ”Växeln hallå” - Janne Lucas

[@tovekauppi1616]

2004 was the first time my parents deemed me old enough to stay up and watch all of Eurovision (it goes on until 12 so it’s pretty late if you’re a child) so this song will always have a special place in my heart. I know all the lyrics by heart (though that can be said for many melodifestivalen songs from 2004-2010) and would instantly recognise it from the first second.

[@annelhvass]

Nu är det dags för Nanne Grönvall, hon är grym!! Hon har bara gjort klassiker och gör musik tillsammans med sin man Peter Grönvall (son till Benny (ABBA) ANDERSSON). Lyssna på "Avundsjuk" och på "Den Vilda", skriv upp dessa två på din lista 🤩

[@torbjornkallstrom2316]

I think this song is doubly catchy just because the chorus is relatable on both a physical and emotional level :p

[@MrIndielover]

Sarah - Mauro Scocco is definitely something you should listen to but I would guess that you might have heard (of it) it before. Great video, it is so nice to revisit these songs through your reaction, I listen to AMK and love when you are a guest since you always have a different perspective but you also participate in conversations that you might be new to.

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

Yeah I've heard "Sarah". Love it! Too bad it was before I was doing this. AMK is always fun. Thanks for the kind words!

[@marcusroth4272]

Can't wait to hear your melodifestival song!! 😊

[@sofielindeberg3920]

Another song you should react to is "snälla, snälla" with Caroline af Ugglas. It's also a melodifestivalen song but kind of different from all the other songs 😊 Thanks for your videos, just found them and I like it 🤩

[@Deidara85]

Snälla snälla snälla reagera aldrig på det skräpet.

[@bikbok1019]

That’s a very good emotional and unique song. You either hate it or love it.

[@trasslaren]

Jag hade glömt hur bra den här låten är!

[@fromSweden4u]

Jag har noterat att du kämpar hårt med svenska ord i svenska låtar. Keep it up =)

[@johanbengtsson9560]

Hur skulle det vara med en instrumentallåt? Jag föreslår "Gammal jämtländsk brudmarsch" av Merit Hemmingson, versionen från albumet "Bergtagen". Hon är snart sommarpratare i radion...

[@Griexxt]

Utan tvekan en av Sveriges proffsigaste artister.

[@ann-sofieandersson924]

LoL to your channel! Monica Z, she is really fantastic and unique and so is the composer of the song Trubbel, Olle Adolfsson. Please also listen to Laleh, there are many great songs. "Some die young" is one of them.

[@bbeightynine]

Listen to Laleh - Live tomorrow ..it was her first banger and is now a modern classic

[@aaarrghdude]

Also, "Goliat" is such a cool and inspiring song about feeling young and invincible. I love Laleh.

[@lindapalm3144]

Så j*vla bra!!! 👏👏👏 🤩🤩🤩

[@zpitzer]

what? no video, you are missing out on her play with the microphone.

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

I probably would have missed it anyway because I read the lyrics the whole time

[@thomassnell2825]

Have You done The Latin Kings? I truly recommend Y check them out, pioneers in Swedish rap, and they usually have a good message in their songs.

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

I've done a Latin Kings song

[@Asa...S]

You mentioned the backing vocalists of this, among them are

[@Deidara85]

Millencolin - E20 Norr Ebba Grön - Die Maur Fattaru - Mina Hundar E-Type - Angels Crying Loop Troop - Long Arm of the Law Afasi & Filthy - Bomfalleralla Now those are some classics that might create some good reactions. There is a serious lack of hiphop up in here.

[@perhaggstrom]

Millencolin is such a good band, love to hear them on the channel!

[@hlagtrvenncvrenst5121]

Åh jag hoppas du kollar live videon från -68 när du reagerar på Monica, det ger dig verkligen en känsla av henne som artist!

[@snaxon]

Monica Z är en gudinna!

[@jokervienna6433]

You really a Mello-guy? :D I am not, but I went to one of the Mello-parties once - and I did have fun! They did everything, like keeping charts of old Mellos, playing old winners, keeping a bet going for that years winner, and had serious talks about the best ones (like ever). Find yourself some experts and join the fun! :)

[@bbeightynine]

You should def do her three earlier classic mello songs that are even more of Swedish classics: Kärleken är evig, Dansa i neon, Om igen.

[@christerpettersson7754]

This is the last Time I treid. Håkan Hellström write in the song: Dom där jag kommer ifrån - "Första gången jag såg Freddie var på valvetscenen...." Its Time for you to react on an iconic artist - Freddie Wadling. Hes a legend. Hes was vocalist often in the group called Fleshquartett. They play only string-instrument. The album "The Flow" 1993 get the grammis for The best album that year. One track on the album is called: Dancing madley backwards.

[@zpitzer]

she and charlotte perelli are the queens of mello

[@Merecir]

Sanna?

[@Geoskan]

Surprised you haven't reacted to anything by Ledin yet... Kind of disappointed too :(

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

Stay tuned

[@hannaskoog7897]

Please react to Tomas Ledin ”Hon gör allt för att göra mig lycklig” plus många många fler låtar han skrivit !!!!!!

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

Oh yeah I have gotten a lot of Tomas Ledin requests. I'll have to do one of his songs soon.

[@hannisen1]

That’s a good one. To me ”sommaren är kort” is really his true classic. Every kid must have sang it on every skolavslutning in the 90’s😂 But he also have done a lot of other great classics.

[@Huxteble]

Eftersom det är sommar nu passar ju Sommaren är kort bäst. Sen kan han ta ett par till senare. (Jag gillar inte ens Ledin men han kan ju inte hoppas över i denna kanal.)

[@polara1se]

Rekommenderar Jan Johansson om man vill lyssna på svenska jazz.

[@josefinasoderholm6488]

Oh I wish you would have chosen the video from her performance at Melodifestivalen. Please!! Can’t you do a reaction on the video 🙏🙏🙏

[@JonathanRollinssthlm305]

I will check it out tonight on the Tuesday Night Hang

[@bikbok1019]

Not my cup of tea, but as it was an ESC entry, along with the stiff dance moves, I guess it qualifies as a classic somehow.

[@drumedorable]

Would be fun if you did some reaction to the very swedish sub-genre Trallpunk (melodious punk). Radioaktiva Räker - Bakom Spegeln De Lyckliga Kompisarna - Dricka Sprit Och Hålla Käften Asta Kask - Vill Inte Va Med Mimikry - Röda Fanor
