Eric Saade & Danny Saucedo … sharing a crush!

I have to thank my good friend James O’Brien for pointing out this piece of campness to me. Eric & Danny’s hijinks turned into a video montage to the tune of “Crush”. No doubt the conspiracy theorists will be beside themselves shouting “see, they ARE Gay, I knew it all along!” Good on Eric and Danny [...]

Le Kid – We Should Go Home Together

Since Le Kid’s fantastic album arrived in the post a few weeks ago, I’ve got a new favourite song on repeat! We Should Go Home Together is a classic slice of perfect pop from Le Kid. And the clip is uber-camp in the way that only Le Kid could pull off! Le Kid’s album “Oh [...]

Eric Saade Volume 2

Woooh! This just surfaced about 24 hour ago and seems to be the cover for Eric Saade Volume 2 which is to be released in November. If it is the cover, it is absolutely stunning and so much better than the Volume 1 cover – and he’s not fake white anymore! He actually really looks [...]

Song for a sunny Sunday morning

It’s a bright, sunny Sunday morning out there and I have just the song to get me in the mood to get up and get out and enjoy the day… Le Kid were one of the entries in this year’s Melodifestivalen that immediately struck a cord with me. Happy, fun pop that was full of [...]

My name is Lena Philipsson

If you can imagine two Australian Gay men walking around Stockholm – separately and together – randomly saying “Mitt namn är Lena Philipsson”….well, you have James and myself  in Sweden two weeks ago. We’d been at GoldenHits bar/club the night before for their mega-schlager night and someone requested this song – “Lena Anthem”. James immediately [...]

Magnus Carlsson at GoldenHits in Stockholm

There’s a place in Stockholm called “GoldenHits” and upstairs it has a bar/club area entirely devoted to schlager. An entire bar devoted to Swedish Schlager music. I discovered this with the eclectic James O’Brien a couple of weeks ago when we were in Sweden. To say we had the night of our lives is an [...]

The sensational Danny!

On my recent trip to Stockholm Pride, I got to meet the amazing, gorgeous and incredibly talented Danny! Swedish Uber-spunk Danny Saucedo was simply hanging around the bar near the XL Lounge area after Saturday night’s final Pride concert. He was happy to talk with fans and pose for pictures. No attitude, just very relaxed [...]

Congratulations Eric Saade – Sweden’s best Eurovision result in more than a decade!

It is quite amazing what negative, destructive, cunts the Swedish media have been about Eric Saade & Eurovision. I’ve been struggling to find a really positive newspaper article about Eric’s success in placing 3rd and giving Sweden its best Eurovision result since 1999. The article below is mostly positive but sticks the knife in at [...]

Eric Saade’s “Gay kiss” – storm in a Swedish teacup!

Since so many people seem to be searching the net to find out if Eric Saade is Gay (and just reiterating, no he’s not – he’s just bought a flat with long time partner Molly Sanden), I thought I’d have another look at footage of the kiss that began it all. The storm in the [...]
