Oh the shock!! The horror!!
Some critics claim the Swedes Eurovision contribution "If I were sorry" sounds a lot like American artist Matt Simons 2014 hit song "Cach and release".
Here is Frans:
And here's Matt Simon:
A representative from Simons record label pointed out the songs similarities even before Frans entered the Melodifestivalen stage on saturday.
Leading up to the international final all the 43 contributing songs will be checked for what they call "inaccuracies" before they are cleared to participate.
Eurovision "general" (Who by the way is Norwegian..) Jan Ola Sand, told the Swedish newspaper Expressent that if they find any evidence of plagiarism Frans will not be allowed to represent his own country on home turf in Stockholm in May.
Very curious to see what will happen then... Will they send slick rick Robin Bengtsson who came in second, with an even more boring song? Will they have to do the whole Melodifestivalen again? (Oh yes! Please do!! More Eurovision for us :))
Only time will tell
