Alcastar

"Alcastar" was Alcazar's second attempt at Melodifestivalen success. The second song they submitted, Grillvagn, a Swedish-language track, was not selected to participate, and was never released, except for a live performance in the interval of Melodifestivalen's Andra chansen. Alcastar, however, made it to the final via Andra chansen, where it came 3rd. Upon release, the single shot straight to #1.
