What were they thinking? Putting (Music Icon) Bonnie Tyler on stage in a sing off with (Melodifestivalen Bridesmaid)  Pernilla Wahlgren? Yes in the recent Granna Music Festival in Sweden – the 2 Diva’s ( of differing degrees) not only shared a stage but took on the classic “River Deep Mountain High”.

Well firstly Bonnie was leather clad and up for the challenge. Secondly …. well she is Bonnie Tyler. Don’t get me wrong – I love Pernilla – especially as part of The Swedish House Wives this year in Melodifestivalen (they were robbed), but you just can’t sing a soul classic like “River Deep” against Bonnie Tyler.

If only Bonnie had a great rock/soul song at Eurovision – she could have been much further up the scoreboard. Just to show that we love Pernilla, here she is with her 2 fellow House Wives – Yes the dresses may have looked like baking foil, but you just have to love a good schlager song! Who needs the Mafia when you have the Housewives

So on the Bonnie V Pernilla performance – Who won?
