Lasse Holm & Monica Törnell

<p>In 1986, Sweden's most prolific Eurovision composer Lasse Holm joined forces with very-serious-and-too-good-for-Melodifestivalen singer Monica Törnell and surprised both the swedish audience and the rest of Europe when they dropped any inhibitions to perform a happy-go-lucky song with a video where they threw paint at each other, and a stage show where we got to see Lasse climb on top of a grand piano, backup singers dressed like a wrestler, a maid and a gentleman, topped off with a shirtless head of delegation playing the electric guitar. Lasse has of course had several more songs in the Eurovision and too many to count in Melodifestivalen as a composer, but did you know that both of them have made further attempts to reach the contest? We get to hear those songs!</p><br><p><strong>Legends:</strong>&nbsp;Lasse Holm &amp; Monica Törnell</p><br><p><strong>Songs:</strong>&nbsp;<em>E' de' det här du kallar kärlek&nbsp;</em>(Sweden 1986)</p><br><p><strong>Host:</strong>&nbsp;Emil Löfström</p><br><p><strong>Contact:</strong>&nbsp;emil@schlagervannerna.se</p><br><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/eurovisionlegendspodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/eurovisionlegendspodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><br><p><a href="https://shows.acast.com/5ef9a2bf2a01c450649b1146" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http//www.eurovisionlegends.se</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
