Last weekend was Sweden's first day of Melodifestivalen, which is the country's selection process to see which song will represent Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest. For us, there was a standout song called "Hush Hush" by Meira Omar. We don't know much about Meira except that she was born in Afghanistan and raised in Sweden. Her debut single in 2020 was called "Dive", but it was recently re-released in December.
"Hush Hush" is a lush pop song that channels some Bollywood energy and we are loving it. It has the great melody that Swedes are famous for. During the first verse of her Melodifestivalen performance, a cameraman fell off the stage and hurt himself. Meira kept on going like a true professional, even while a lot of people rushed to help the fallen cameraman. We've added the performance to our 2025 Poptastic Confessions YouTube Playlist ...
Meira came in third place and qualified for the second chance round to come later in the month. Apparently, the song has already gone to #1 in Sweden. "Hush Hush" was written by Anderz Wrethov, Dino Medanhodzic, Laurell Barker, and Meira Omar. It was produced by Dino Medanhodzic. It is available on digital outlets everywhere. Buy your copy today! Listen to it on our 2025 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify ...
