Second chance round changes
On 15 August 2006, SVT announced that the second chance round, which had by then taken place on the Sunday after the last heat, would be turned into a full Saturday night show. That meant that Melodifestivalen 2007 would become a six-week competition, rather than the five-week event it had been the previous years.[2]
As well as turning the second chance round into a main show in an arena, the voting for it was also changed. A knock-out system was introduced where each of the eight artists were split into four duels, and the voters voted for their favorite in each one. The four winners went through to a second round, where they were paired off again, and the winners of each duel went through to the final.[2]
Wildcards
Starting in 2004, four out of the 32 participants were selected directly by the contest's producers, in order to increase musical and artistic breadth. Each artist, called "wildcard", participated in a different heat. The wildcards in 2007 were the following:[3]
| Artist | Song | Heat |
|---|---|---|
| Uno & Irma | "God morgon" | Heat 1 |
| The Ark | "The Worrying Kind" | Heat 2 |
| Sebastian | "When The Night Comes Falling" | Heat 3 |
| Magnus Uggla | "Script error: No such module "Lang"." | Heat 4 |
