- In 2023 they got second place in Melodifestivalen in Sweden with "Air", and now they are back for another round of the Swedish national final - this time as the favourites to win!
We met up with them at the first stop of their Nordic tour in Copenhagen and had a chat about being favourites in Melfest, how they were amazed by the experience last year and what they feel about the possibility of representing Sweden in Eurovision... in Sweden.

UUuuugh they are so cute!!!!!
Ahh the Norwegian super twins are back! I can't wait to see what they're bringing in heat 5.

Air was one of my favourite songs last year, looking forward to this years song!😊

In 1995 the norwegian Jan Johansen competed in esc for sweden with "Se på mig"
I think you are getting your Jan Johansen’s mixed up. The singer who represented Sweden was born in Stockholm and is definitely Swedish!
@@AndrewHolmes-ye5um Jan Johansen is born and raised in Sweden. His parents were Norwegian though. His father, jazz-musican Egil Johansen, came to Sweden in the 50s. His mom Ellen Böbak-Johansen was a vocalist in Swedish bands in the 50s. (If you want to hear her sing, in Swedish with no Norwegian accent at all, so she probably moved to Sweden when she was quite young, check out "Stenkakor i Trelleborg - Ellen Böbak - Om vi blir gifta skall jag dansa").
@@AndrewHolmes-ye5um Sorry - his father is a well known norwegian jazz musician and he had his musical education in norway
@@MrGiancana but that doesn’t make him Norwegian. He was born and raised in Sweden so that makes him Swedish. He is of Norwegian descent not Norwegian
Can someone tell me what Martinus’s tattoo says?
"Karma"
Super twins
but why they not cometing in MGP Norway i dont get it. is there are reason they dont want to do it in Norway or there some otther reasons? Whos from norway who knows?
They are under universal music SWEDEN, their PR and team it’s based in Sweden, they work a lot more in Sweden than Norway
They have a Swedish obsession for some reason, a bit cringe to try two times in a row instead of MGP. The only tie they have to Sweden is their label. They even live in Norway.
@@chiara5337It doesnt matter and its weird they think they will have better international success with a Swedish label/management, cause they havent exactly had more international success after they changed label. They are Norwegians. They should represent Norway. One time trying MF is okay, twice is desperate 🥱
@@In_my_own_mind te voy a responder en español para joderte nomas, y cual hay? Si quieren representar Suecia luego de que Karina Gunnarsson (la directora de melfest) les pregunto si querían participar otra vez, no es solo por cuestión de ellos sino tambien que la organización de melfest los quiere ahí. Así que nada besos en la cola
I think somehow they think that it is more prestigous being in Melodifestivalen than MGP.
Way are they always in sweden ???
Because they have signed contract there. They have the music producers and all of that there
@@matej9977aAs if thats an excuse 😂😂😂
@@matej9977aAs if thats an excuse 😂 They know they wont win in Norway. Its the only legit reason.
@@In_my_own_mind I think they could win with a song like Air. It was really good. I guess it's because Sweden is "bigger" or has some popular producers. Maybe they were invited.
@@In_my_own_mindseñora cállese un poco y enfóquese en su vida
I love these guys but even if they win Melodifestivalen I hope they will have honor and let someone who is actually swedish represent Sweden 🇸🇪 Other way Eurovison wont make sense anymore
What do you mean? If they win they should let someone else perform in their place? That's not how it works 😅
If they win then that means swedish people are okay with them representing Sweden.
the eurovision is a songwritr contest there for it can happen. in Norway we had one from australia singing this year
@@grisbakken he's actually norwegian and australian
It's the same thing when someone from Greece represent Cyprus, for example..
"Other way Eurovison wont make sense anymore"
Are you new to Eurovision? You're not aware that people from different countries has competed for other countries than their homeland before. That's been happening since the 1950s.
Never heard of Canadian Celine Dion winning for Switzerland, for instance? Or Canadian La Zarra competing for France last year, if you want a more recent example. There are probably 100 examples or more of artists competing for another country than they were born.
I know that Swedes has competed for Estonia (Victor Crone and Sahlene), Greece (Helena Paparitzou, her parents are Greek, but she is born and raised in Sweden, so she is Swedish-Greek), Germany (Siw Malmkvist), and of course there are tons of Swedish songwriters that has written songs for other countries. Frida in ABBA was born in Norway, her mom is Norwegian and her father German and no one was like "You can't compete for Sweden". Elisabet Andreassen is Swedish-Norwegian and has competed for both countries. San Marino is so tiny that they almost always send someone who isn't from there (except Valentina Monetta).
One time in Melodifestivalen was okay, twice seems desperate. They should have joined MGP instead cause they are Norwegians. Its kind of cringe. Whats up with their obsession with Sweden 😂 Is their goal to be popular in Sweden or worldwide? Its not like they have had more intermational success after they moved from a Norwegian record label to a Swedish. They even live in Norway..
It would be fiun if they represented Sweden and Norway won Eurovision in Sweden this year.
You know that people doesnt take part in mello only to represent Sweden in Eurovision. Its one of the biggest music competition in Europe and people from around the world come to compete. Btw the twins already said that they get the invitation from Mello before MGP. And Mello is way bigger so its obvious they prefer it.
And also its Eurovision SONG contest not Eurovision SINGER contest. How could they compete for Norway with a swedish produced song
Weird take but okay
Handly desperate when they almost won last year (came in second). I don't care for them (teeny boppers), but Sweden certainly does. They're #1 in the odds currently.
@@awaw7480 Nah it's a bit weird. They should have signed up for MGP in Norway. I agree that it feels desperate to compete in the Mel Festival 2nd year in a row.
