“There is nothing else to say than that the 2005 edition of SchlagerPride was the best ever”. Matthias Mattsson, President of OGAE Sweden and organizer of the SchlagerPride, said that to esctoday.com.
Gentle as he is, Mattsson also credits his colleague Edward af Sillén for their great co-operation: “I had the pleasure of working together with Edward on putting this show together. I think we managed to make a show that appealed to all people in the park and not just the hardcore Eurovision Song Contest fans”, Mattsson said.
“I think all the artists did marvellous performances during the show. All the artists also had a great time and thought the audience was magic when singing along with their songs whatever the language”, he added.
Mattsson invites everyone who missed out on this spectacular event to next year's SchlagerPride.
