Before Eurovision

Melodifestivalen 1987

Melodifestivalen 1987 was the selection for the 27th song to represent Sweden at the Eurovision Song Contest. It was the 26th time that this system of picking a song had been used. 1502 songs were submitted to SVT for the competition. The final was held in Lisebergshallen in Gothenburg on 21 February 1987, was presented by Fredrik Belfrage and broadcast on TV1 and was not broadcast on radio. The winning song's title was changed to "Boogaloo" for the Eurovision Song Contest as it contained chewing gum brand Bugg as well drinks company Coca-Cola in the title.

At Eurovision

As the song's title contained the trademark names Coca-Cola and the Swedish chewing gum Bugg, the European Broadcasting Union demanded that the lyrics be changed before the Eurovision final, so the song was renamed Boogaloo. It was drawn to perform at start position 12. After the voting, Sweden had received 50 points and finished in 12th place (out of 22).[1] This was the worst placement for Sweden in eight years.
