You won Melodifestival!

Yohio
Well OK, maybe not you but Robin Stjernberg did with his song "You" beating the cross dressing Yohio by 30 points today, winning 166 to 133 at the Swedish Melodi festival final.  Yohio does something called Visual Kei, a subset of Japanese rock where they wear androgenous clothing.  (David Bowie inspired?)  Yohio looks full out like a girl but plays guitar like Jimi Hendrix so although technically Robin won with "You", I think we'll hear more from Yohio in the future.  Check out this link for the whole scoop and music videos from the two singers.  You go!
