Sweden

Seventeen-year-old Frans Jeppson Wall became popular in his native Sweden at the tender age of seven with a 2006 World Cup song dedicated to footballer Zlatan Ibrahimović, which topped the Swedish charts for a number of weeks.

Frans co-wrote his Eurovision 2016 entry, ‘If I Were Sorry’, with Fredrik Andersson, Michael Saxell and Oscar Fogelström.

The song has already reached No.1 in the Swedish charts and has been streamed more than 17 million times.

I'd crawl thru the desert on my hands and knees
Rehearsing my pretty please
Climb the highest mountain
If I were sorry

Shout it from the top
Swim under water until my lungs exploded
Walk into the fire
If I were sorry

I'd run a thousand mile
Wouldn't stop until I dropped
Wouldn’t take a break to breathe until I got close
enough

Then I'd do it all again
If I really had the chance
But I know deep inside for you it's just another
dance

If I were sorry
I'd give you all the glory
If I were sorry

If I were sorry
It would be a different story

If I were sorry
If I were sorry oh

I'd hold my breath until my face turned blue
I'd rob a bank and the post office too
Swim across the ocean
If I were sorry

I’d take wow of silence
I wouldn’t say a single word
Until you really heard
If I were sorry

I'd run a thousand miles
Wouldn't stop until I dropped
Wouldn't take the break to breathe
Until I I got close enough

If I were sorry
I'd give you all the glory
If I were sorry

If I were sorry
It would be a different story
If I were sorry oh

Now did you ever realise
That your mistake had a prize?
Oh you threw it all away
'Cause you're the devil in disguise

Now would you ever realize
The consequences of your lies
And would you save the falling tear or act as if
There’s nothing there?

If I were sorry
If I were sorry

If I were sorry
If I were sorry

If I were sorry

I'd take a vow of silence
I wouldn't say a single word
If I were sorry

If I were sorry

I'd be on my hands and knees
Begging pretty please
If I were sorry
But I'm not sorry no
