AC/DC - Let There Be Rock: The Movie
"Let There Be Rock: The Movie is a live double CD by the hard rock band AC/DC, released as discs 2-3 of the Bonfire box set in 1997 (see 1997 in music).
The album was recorded live at The Pavillon in Paris, France on 9 December 1979. A motion picture of this concert, entitled AC/DC: Let There Be Rock, was released theatrically and on videotape in 1980 (see 1980 in music). However, the movie does not contain the performance of "T.N.T." included on this album, while the album does not contain the band interviews found on the film.
Though this album shares a name with AC/DC's fourth studio album, Let There Be Rock, it also includes live versions of songs from High Voltage (Australian), T.N.T., Powerage, and Highway to Hell. The cover used on discs 2-3 of the Bonfire box set featured similar cover art to that used on the international and current Australian editions of the Let There Be Rock album, and on the movie poster and videotape package of AC/DC: Let There Be Rock.

Swede Week: Claes-Göran Hederström - Det Börjar Verka Kärlek, Banne Mej
"Det Börjar Verka Kärlek, Banne Mej" = "It starts to feel like love, damn it"
And, here it is! Probably the best song from Sweden to qualify to Eurovision Song Contest. Yes, actually much better than Waterloo. This was in 1968.

Swede Week: The Ark - The Worrying Kind
I have blogged this song before, but since it won melodifestivalen (the Swedish qualifications for Eurovision Song Contest) yesterday I post it once more. The song isn't that great. The verse is really good and glammy - but the chorus doesn't really take off. But the performance is better than most artists in this contest. We may have a winner.
This clip is from the semi finals:

Swede Week: Sillstryparn - Doin the Omoralisk Schlagerfestival
"Back in 1975 there was a popular movement in sweden against the music competition Melodifestivalen. The young people fought big music corporations, and most evil of them all was Stikkan Andersson, founder of Polar Records and also ABBA's manager.
Among other things the movement arranged the Alternativfestivalen as an alternative for Melodifestivalen. It was here that Ulf Dageby performed Doin the Omoralisk Schlagerfestival under the name Sillstryparn."
