[ALL ABOARD! TO THE GATES OF UTOPIA]
Hello! I created a starter pack for those who are engaged with fellow fans of the Korean TV Show "Phantom Singer" and its final group(s) fandom (i.e: Forestella, Crezl, La Poem, Libelante, etc.)

Come here and join the fun: go.bsky.app/Dmhekuf
my initial prediciton based on everyone preview:
DTF
1. Jacqline
2. Greczula
Finalkvall
3.A*teens
January 27, 2026 at 10:30 AM
okay ... very A*Teens of them, this definitely going to be blasted in my party inshallah
A*Teens: Iconic
BPM: 135

The fusion of 2000's pop with modern production and an energy kick. Feels made for a tremendous comeback with clear A*Teens sound still emanating through.
Perhaps more gloss than substance, but still - I-C-O-N-I-C

Sounds like: Andreas Lundstedt's Vicious ( #melfest 2025)
January 27, 2026 at 10:19 AM
PLEASE BE GOOD PLEASE BE GOOD PLEASE BE GOOD WE LOVE A GOOD BALLAD STILL OK
Indra: Beautiful Lie
BPM: 63

Is this #melfest? A dramatic and organic ballad, but this screams MGP in Norway (would win there easily this year) with rich orchestration, Northern Lights mentioned and touches of folklore. Lovely entry.

Sounds like: My Way in the verses, Elsie Bay in the choruses
January 27, 2026 at 10:19 AM
it's not melfest without annual disaster bops indeed ... and he said he want to peak it ...
Junior Lerin: Copacabana Boy
BPM: 128

Dirty beats and spoken/shouted singing through what can best be described as the most disaster of #melfest disaster bops. Will get people talking on Monday in the office for it's (intentional) bottom of the barrel quality

Sounds like: Sean Banan from Wish
January 27, 2026 at 10:17 AM
okay i am lowkey seated.
noll2: Bersuade ord
BPM: 184 (!), slows in bridge.

If Jacqline is slick produced pop, this is the rural variant, with a fiddle running call and response with lyrics.

Good intonation in bridge to give the text focus. Creative

Sounds like: Something fresh and authentic which we need in #melfest
January 27, 2026 at 10:15 AM
JACQLINE PREPARE YOUR MELFEST DTF SPEECH
Jacqline: Woman
BPM: 111

BOOM! You liked Effortless, you'll love this!
Powerful girl-power theme and the hooks in the chorus and post-chorus are sublime! A great show for Melfest lovers I am sure!

Sounds like: Everything good about Swedish pop, what we all with Agnes came to #melfest with.
January 27, 2026 at 10:13 AM
i hope the live becomes true savior and help me to start like the studio version ... (yes, i wasn't quite fond on believe me in my initial listen, but the live was spectacular i started to listen to the studio version different way)
Greczula: Half of Me

BPM: 67, 143 by chorus

Perhaps more Queen than last year, and definitely more ABBA.

Two main choruses, hints of electric guitar in outro. Big show. No immediate winner vibes but cool edition to #melfest

Sounds like: Our Sam Ryder. But the voice isn't quite where he was.

so ... i accidentally listen to sissal's new dmgp entry AND OH BOOOOY SISSAL YOU SHOULD RELEASE THIS IN 2025 (and saying this as someone who has hallucination in her 2025 top 10 tells something)
January 26, 2026 at 3:55 AM

No surprises there – you knew this was coming. This year’s entries from Dansk Melodi Grand Prix are now available in the Mello app. The musical Kalmar Union is finally complete. BFF.

Emma's song on the other hand ... decent, but i wish they tone down the beat bcs it slaps way too direct to my ear and covering her vocal too much ...
January 20, 2026 at 2:04 AM
finally got myself that rybak snippet and inshallah he will not win with this kind of abysmalness.
January 20, 2026 at 1:55 AM
Emma as in the marcus and martinus sister????
