MANS ZELMERLOW – SWEDISH TOUR

We got the following press release from Helene Wigren in Stockholm, Sweden. Unfortunately it was in Swedish, so we had to use Google translator.

Måns Zelmerlöw is finally back live after a time break with some exclusive dates in connection with the release of the new album “TIME” in October, the tour makes four stops in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö and Falun.

Last spring, Måns Zelmerlöw broke three years of silence and finally released new music. The first single came as early as March and was a duet with Dotter “Walk with Me” – the song quickly became a radio hit, passing 7 million streams these days.

In May, a total of three singles were released within two days; “Better Now”, “Grow Up to Be You” and “Fuego” who all quickly became big favorites on the radio and are still climbing the charts. The songs gave us a taste of the upcoming album “TIME” which will be released October 18th. We can now also confirm that Måns goes out on a Sweden tour in connection with release and visits Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö and Falun in October.

Måns is one of Sweden’s biggest artists and with him in the luggage he has a profit in Eurovision, something many artists can only dream of. The song “Heroes” with which he won Eurovision has today streamed over 100 million times on Spotify! With the music’s new music, Måns has established himself as one of Europe’s biggest pop stars.

” I am so incredibly excited in coming back to Sweden and getting to play at home again! It is always best to play at home in Sweden and in the fall you will see that something completely new,” says Måns.

The tour starts on October 18 at KB in Malmö and then continues to Nalen in Stockholm, Falu Bowling & Krog in Falun and ends on October 27 at Trädgår’n in Gothenburg. We long to finally see Måns Zelmerlöw live at home!

MILAN, PAUL & ELA – GEH’ AN DEN ROSES NICHT VORBEI

ESC Covers is a website that focus on covers, mainly Eurovision songs covered in other languages or by other artists. We also give attention to the covers of songs by Eurovision singers where the song in question was not the artist actual Eurovision entry. In this regard we look especially at ABBA. They had so many great songs and so many artists recorded their songs,either in English or another language. We had a fantastic surprise three days ago when we discovered a trio of MILAN, PAUL & ELA who had recorded not one but THREE ABBA songs in German. Roy and Ian had such a great time discovering these songs. We will feature all three, one by one. It is important for us to feature each one separate so it stands out. We tried to gather information of Milan, Paul and Ela but found very little other than Milan seemed to have been born in Italy. Our guess is that they operated in the 70’s in the Italian part of Switzerland.

The third (and last) song we look at is their cover of DANCE (WHILE THE MUSIC STILL GOES ON). It is called GEH’ AN DEN ROSEN NICHT VORBEI.

EUROVISION COVERS FACEBOOK

The ESC Covers website has since June 2018 introduce a range of facebooks. They are part of the EUROVISION COVERAGE facebook with other websites but Roy van der Merwe felt there was a need for facebooks that focus on certain aspects of MUSIC and EUROVISION. There are 8 such facebooks and we will discuss all 8 over the next week.

The first one is called EUROVISION COVERS – today the 1000th cover was loaded onto this facebook. The idea is to try and put all covers of Eurovision songs under one roof. It is quite a milestone to have 1000 covers. There is at least once for every year and a few have over 40 covers.
