Sweden was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1991 with the song "Fångad av en stormvind", written by Stephan Berg, and performed by Carola. The Swedish participating broadcaster, Sveriges Television (SVT), selected its entry through Melodifestivalen 1991. Carola had already represented Sweden at the 1983 contest. The entry eventually won the Eurovision Song Contest after having to apply the tiebreaker rule because it ended with the same number of points as the entry from France. This was the third ever victory for Sweden in the contest.
Before Eurovision
Melodifestivalen 1991
Melodifestivalen 1991 was the selection for the 31st song to represent Sweden at the Eurovision Song Contest. It was the 30th time that this system of picking a song had been used. 1,323 songs were submitted to Sveriges Television (SVT) for the competition. The final was held in the Malmö Stadsteater in Malmö on 31 March 1991, presented by Harald Treutiger and was broadcast on TV2 and Sveriges Radio's P3 network. Carola Häggkvist went on to win that year's Eurovision Song Contest in Rome, Sweden's third Eurovision win. The show was watched by 5,880,000 people.
One of the favourites to win, Carola sang eighth on the night of the contest, following Luxembourg and preceding France. At the close of the voting, she had received 146 points, placing joint first place with France's "C'est le dernier qui a parlé qui a raison" performed by Amina. After the four-way tie at the 1969 contest, a tie-break system had been implemented, where a count-back on the number of top points awarded was used. Both countries received four 1st-place votes, but Sweden gained five 2nd-place votes versus two for France, making Sweden the winner. Carola earned the third ever victory for Sweden.
