Loreen will be performing her new single, ‘Forever’, in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest this Saturday (May 11). The track will be released the day before.
She will also be headlining Manchester Pride 2024 in August.
Loreen took the Eurovision crown home at last year’s Song Contest, representing Sweden with her song ‘Tattoo’. It marked her second victory after having won for the first time back in 2012.
Last summer, following her Eurovision victory, Loreen sat down with NME to discuss her plans for new music and the feeling of taking home the song contest trophy for the second time.
She also opened up about how she would categorise her style of music, and said that she agrees with a fan’s comment that it is “spiritual pop”.
“It’s exactly what it is. Of course, I do spiritual pop. The dynamics in my songs – if you look at ‘Euphoria’ and ‘Tattoo’ – there is a spiritual thing going on there. You start with this small whispery thing, then you start building energy and being stronger and stronger, until you come to the chorus where it’s full-on power,” she explained.
“This is spiritual in a way because it’s almost like watching a movie and getting to the place where you start crying and feel a release. And that release is so important. We get it from clubbing, dancing, music – and we need it, because otherwise [there’s] a lot of stagnation in the body. So there’s a purpose to why I use certain dynamics, because you can’t really just scream at somebody [from the start]. You have to really build up – almost like trust, in a way, until you come to the point of release. And [in that moment] it could be that you cry or feel happy or whatever. But it is a spiritual build-up.”
