Mariette is making her fourth Melodifestivalen appearance in a row following competitive runs in 2015 and 2017 and a participation in the 2016 medley during the finals. Having qualified direct to the finals with each entry makes her part of an elite few, but can she finally bring home the trophy and represent Sweden on a larger scale?

Once again her staging will be worked on by Zain Odelstål with a styling assistance from Dennis Brochner, who together have also designed this year's numbers for Benjamin Ingrosso, Mendez, Moncho, and Jessica Andersson. Her song "You" will see her standing along atop a pyramid, which clearly shows that her label is gunning for her to finally win. Mariette has often fared well with the juries in the finals but always seems to lose steam with the Swedish public's televotes upon reaching Friends Arena. Could Jörgen Elofsson's writing finally be the key to securing a victory? Only time will tell.
