Lili & Susie - Bailamor

If you have not yet made plans for this summer, consider Stockholm. Stockholm Pride will be full of Eurovision again. Lili and Susie stand for the Pride Song of this year, Bailamor, Euroschlager like it has to be. Watch the clip below, by the sisters that first appeared in Melodifestivalen 1989 and had their come back last year with Show me heaven.

Calling Stockholm the Eurovision capital of Europe is not exaggerated. Nowhere is the Eurovision national final bigger than in Sweden. Not in any other countries are big local and international stars lining up to be part of the contest. Taking a look at the Swedish charts in the weeks after Melodifestivalen, the national Eurovision final, would make any Eurovision fan elsewhere in Europe quite envious, as at least two thirds of the hit list will be filled with Eurovision related songs then.

Finding a Eurovision party in Stockholm's night life is never hard (Need some tips? Just contact us!), but the real thing to look forward to is the Thursday evening during Stockholm's Gay Pride (on 4 August this year), which traditionally is filled with Melodifestivalen and Eurovision Music. Until last year this Schlagerpride night as it is called was taking place in what was called Pridepark. This year it will be in the city centre, at Kungsträdgården, and it will be free!

Traditionally most names of performing artists are kept secret, a few however have already been revealed. Among them Lotta Engberg and Sanna Nielsen (her MF2011 entry I'm in love is still played on repeat by my flat mate on an almost daily bases). Many more national and international names are expected though. We've heard more names, but haven't got them confirmed yet. Keep an eye on this site to stay updated or on the site of Stockholm Pride. Ok here's Lili & Susie:
