Swedish TV have announced the complete list of performers and songs for the 2004 Melodifestival. Swedish TV received 3233 entry submissions for the contest.
The final will feature eight songs selected from these heats along with two selected from the runners up.
Шведское телевидение объявило список участников национального отбора к конкурсу Евровидение. В этом году было получено 3233 заявки.
В финал пройдут 8 песен - победителей полуфиналов, плюс еще 2 выбранные из песен, занявших 3-4 места.

Лена Филипссон родилась в провинции Смоланд, Южная Швеция. Одержав в 16 лет победу в детском музыкальном конкурсе, Лена начала успешную музыкальную карьеру, заняв в 1986 году второе место в шведском национальном финале Евровидения с песней “Love is eternal”. Годом позже она участвует в конкурсе с песней “Dancing in the Neon Light”, занявшей пятое место. В 1988 году Лена в третий раз была близка к победе, когда её песня “Once Again” заняла на конкурсе второе место. Лена также принимала участие в конкурсе в качестве автора текстов и композитора.

 

Лена признана самой сексуальной женщиной Швеции. Она провела неколько сольных туров по Швеции, участвовала в некоторых благотворительных программах,  в шоу-программе “Rhapsody in Rock”, неоднократно появлялась на телевидении.

 

Её первым кумиром был Девид Кассиди, покоривший её не столько своим пением, сколько своей внешностью. Группе “Sweet” удалось, напротив, полностью завоевать её сердце. Тем не менее, её музыкальные вкусы всё же больше склоняются в сторону стилей synth, disco и soul, чем к рок-н-роллу.

 

Учась в гимназии, Лена собиралась стать инженером гражданского строительства. Кроме того, она неплохо играет в настольный теннис – в своё время она даже заняла пятое место на первенстве Швеции.

 

Поп-звезда Томас «Оруп» Эрикссон сочинил песню “Det gor ont” специально для Лены. В 1988 он выпустил свой первый сольный альбом, за которым последовало еще семь. В Швеции он пользуется большой популярностью как музыкант и композитор. 

Lena Philipsson hails from Smaland in southern Sweden. After winning a childrens’ talent contest at the age of 16 she went from success to success, taking part in the Swedish national finals of the Eurovision Song Contest for the first time in 1986 with “Love is eternal,” where she came second. The following year she competed with “Dancing in the Neon Light,” and finished fifth. In 1988 it was almost third time lucky when she came second once again with, yes, a song called “Once Again.” Lena has also taken part in the contest as a composer of lyrics and music.

Lena has been voted Sweden’s sexiest woman. She has toured Sweden with her own stage shows and has participated in several charity galas, toured with show “Rhapsody in Rock” and has made frequent television appearances.

Her first idol was David Cassidy. Not because she’d ever heard him sing, but because he was a ‘suitable’ pin-up. The group “Sweet,” on the other hand, totally fascinated her. Otherwise, her musical tastes haven’t so much been Rock’n’Roll as synth, disco and soul. At upper secondary school she opted for the structural engineering programme and she was once a keen table tennis player – at one point she ranked 5th in Sweden.

The pop star, Thomas “Orup” Eriksson composed the winning song “Det gor ont” especially for Lena. As an artist, he released his first album in 1988. Since then Orup has released seven albums. He is very well respected and loved by the Swedish people.

English version

Nobody but me, could know the way I feel

I'm standing on the rooftop
And I'm crying out your name
I'm looking for an answer
And for somebody to blame
'Cause even though it's over
You linger on my mind, oh

Hurts, oh it hurts, really hurts
In the middle of the night
In the light of the day
You know that it hurts
Oh it hurts, really hurts
And I wish I could be stronger
No longer afraid
Nobody but me, could know the way I feel
Oh it hurts, oh it hurts

I'm trying to forget love
The pain I feel inside
I'm clinging to my pillow
And the tears I cannot hide
I wish it could be over
So I can start out new, oh

Hurts, oh it hurts, really hurts
In the middle of the night
In the light of the day
You know that it hurts
Oh it hurts, really hurts
And I wish I could be stronger
No longer afraid
Nobody but me, could know the way I feel
Oh it hurts, oh

Not easy to remember
And even harder to forget
Whenever I surrender (whenever I surrender)
Oh, you're always on my mind...

(Hurts, oh it hurts, really hurts)
In the middle of the night
In the light of the day
You know that it hurts
Oh it hurts, really hurts
And I wish I could be stronger
No longer afraid
Nobody but me, could know the way I feel
Oh it hurts, ooh it hurts
I wish I could be stronger
Oh, but it hurts
Swedish version

Och alla omkring - de marker ingenting

Finns det nat mer att saga
Sag finns det nanting mer
Jag var val ingen angel
Jag fornekar inte det
Men nu nar det ar over
Sa finns du overallt

Ont, det gor ont
Men det gar
Det gor ont en stund pa natten
Men inget pa dan
Du vet att det gor ont
Det gor ont men anda
Jag har klarat mig ratt lange
Jag borjar bli van

Och alla omkring - de marker ingenting
Det gor ont
Sa ont

Har finns sa manga minnen
Allt vi gjort i vara dar
Fattiga och rika
Det finns sa manga minnen kvar
Men om jag kunde glomma
Da kunde jag bli fri

Ont, det gor ont
Men det gar
Det gor ont en stund pa natten
Men inget pa dan
Du vet att det gor ont
Det gor ont men anda
Jag har klarat mig ratt lange
Jag borjar bli van

Och alla omkring - de marker ingenting
Det gor ont

Ah det sista jag behover
Ar flera minnen utav dig
Men nu nar det ar over
Da finns du overallt

Ont, det gor ont
Men det gar
Det gor ont en stund pa natten
Men inget pa dan
Du vet att det gor ont
Det gor ont men anda
Jag har klarat mig ratt lange
Jag borjar bli van

Och alla omkring - de marker ingenting
Det gor ont
Ah sa ont
De marker ingenting
Det gor ont
Translation

And everyone around - they don't notice anything

Is there anything left to say
Say, is there something more
I guess I wasn't an angel
I don't deny that
But now when it is over
You are everywhere

It hurts, it hurts
But it goes
It hurts a while at night
But nothing during the day
You know that it hurts
It hurts but still
I have managed quite a while
I'm getting used to it

And everyone around - they don't notice anything
It hurts
It hurts so

There are so many memories
Everything we've done in our days
Poor and rich
There are so many memories left
But if I could forget
Then I could be free

It hurts, it hurts
But it goes
It hurts a while at night
But nothing during the day
You know that it hurts
It hurts but still
I have managed quite a while
I'm getting used to it

And everyone around - they don't notice anything
It hurts

Oh, the last thing I need
Is more memories of you
But now when it is over
You are everywhere

It hurts, it hurts
But it goes
It hurts a while at night
But nothing during the day
You know that it hurts
It hurts but still
I have managed quite a while
I'm getting used to it

And everyone around - they don't notice anything
It hurts
It hurts so
They don't notice anything
It hurts
