SWEDEN has won the 2023 Eurovision song contest and will host in 2024. That co-inside with the 50th anniversary of them winning in 1974 with ABBA.

For around 50 to 60 days ESC Covers will post one song a day which is a Swedish song, either an actual entry, a selection song, or a song by a Eurovision artist covered in South Africa, either in Afrikaans or English.

For the next 4 posts, we deviate slightly from the norm and bring you 4 Swedish selection songs that were covered in Afrikaans and the featured image is different as these images were made for ESC Covers for this four songs.

So song 18 is a selection song from 2007, LIVE FOREVER by MAGNUS CARLSSON.

The Afrikaans cover was recorded by PATRICIA LEWIS and is called EK SAL VIR ALTYD LEWE.
