Ubiquitous this year, and more maddening each time it was played, it�s easy to forget that when this first came out it was instantly the group�s high point. I just don�t want to hear it again for awhile.
34. Aqua - Back To The 80�s
A shamelessly nostalgic dance track composed of little more than a list of 80�s high points. It should have been horrible, but the melody keeps it in epic territory.
33. Erik Hassle - Hurtful
The only song on this list that I think still has a chance of crossing over big in the States. Not usually my type of thing, but the sum is greater than its parts in this case.
32. Gossip - Heavy Cross
Primarily a showcase for Beth Ditto�s howling vocals, this muscular funk track surprised me this year. There�s something almost primal about it.
31. Caroline af Ugglas - Sn�lla sn�lla
Usually the type of song I hate to see in Melodifestivalen, this 70�s-styled ballad took the competition by storm and won a place in my heart. Very endearing.
