SWEDEN |
The Swedish Semi-Finals were hosted by Marika Carlsson, Sarah Dawn Finer, Eric Saade & Kodjo Akolor. In the first 4 Semi-Finals there were two rounds of voting - the first to select the top 5 and the second to select the top 2 songs that qualified directly for the final and the 3rd & 4th placed songs that went forward to the 5th semi-final where they had a second chance to qualify for the final. In the 5th semi-final the songs competed in 4 duals - the winner of each dual qualified for the final. All the results were determined by a mobile phone app where users were split into one of 7 age groupings (7/8) & televoting (1/8). The first column of results contains the points awarded by the mobile phone app groupings & televoting which were decisive in determining the placings. The number of votes received is in the second column of results.
