Dear Loreen - this is meant as a souvenir with messages from several Warriors to commemorate the one-year anniversary of your Eurovision Song Contest victory on May 26, 2012

Hej Loreen! Here we are, two of your spanish warriors. It´s difficult to show our gratitude in a few lines... Thank you for your music,for transmiting so much through it to the world, for being an exceptional human being... Thank you also for being so amazing with us when we´ve meet; sharing those moments with you is something we will never forget. This is only the start of the journey and we´re sure that it´ll be full of wonderful things because you really deserve it. As we promised you last time we saw you, we will always, always, always be with you, although you probably know that already ;) See you very soon... this toast goes to you !!! We love you!!!! Hugs and kisses from Madrid: Laura / Angel

Here's to the ones who dare to be different! Society can call them rebels, troublemakers and even crazy. But no matter what name you give them you can never ignore them because they change things. For them there are no regulations of society, there are no rules all in all. These peole are actually crazy enough to think they can change the world, therefore they are the ones who change it. They are the ones who live freely. This is what I admire about you Loreen. You dare to be different, break the patterns and see the world through another light. You also dare to act when needed. For this you have all my respect and I cannot thank you enough for showing peeps this, for bringing this forward in many Loreenators. I'm not really good with words so I will leave it at this. I will leave by saying thank you. With love from V채ster책s! /Amanda

Hello Loreen , I got to know you by chance watching the final voting of Esc in Baku last year. At first I was surprised at the amount of twelve points you got, but I soon understood the meaning of the high score you got, and since then, my admiration and fascination for you has grown. Not only becaude of your voice or songs full of symbolism, but because of your humility and and warmth you always show to your warriors. For example, when I met you personally last January in Madrid for which I'm extremely thankful; also to another spanish warrior, Mercedes MarĂ­n Navarro, who was the one that encouraged me to participate in the contest to win tickets to the concert. Thank you for everything. Fernando from Spain.

Dear Loreen, ever since my childhood I’ve been addicted to the Eurovision Song Contest. But when I think back on the last years and the winners whom I admire much only two names come to my mind : Lena Meyer-Landrut and - of course - YOU. But eventhough ‘Euphoria’ was by no means a great winner, there is something more that sets you apart from all other winners: It’s your personality! You and the things you stand for made you become one of my biggest inspirations and idols so far. You’ve made me discover how limiting beliefs are holding us back from living the life of our dreams. Now I won't strap myself to a boring existence of only accepting and being attached to those things in life that I am familiar with. Since I followed you as a warrior I stretch myself and my zest for life by saying yes to everything that shows up for me. I’m attached to nothing and open to everything. That’s the spice of life. You’ve made me feel this. Thank you for all, Meike / from Germany

My lovely Loreen! I fell in love with you when I heard your voice the first time! You can't imagine how happy I was when you won the ESC... Or the moment when I got your album, or when I heard your songs the first time... My dream is to meet you. I haven't even seen you live yet, but I'm sure it will happen! You have given me so much, inspiration, strength and power! You are my hero and role model, and I'm proud to call myself a warrior!! With love, Anna-Martta, Finland

Hey Loreen! This is Adriรกn from your beloved Spain. I do not know what else I could tell you, as along this year, since you came to Spain for the first time after winning the Eurovision Song Contest, we've met lots of times and I've had the chance to tell you whatever I wanted to, well not everything. We will never be able tell you how we love you and the huge amount of questions we have. The fact is simple: WE LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU. That's what I can say. Here in Spain, our 'Team Warriors Spain' as we are formally known (hahaha joking, just between us) will always be here for you, in every show you come here and even abroad, you'll see. I was so happy to travel to the ESC in Malmรถ and meeting you before the final of contest you had won a year ago, which is the most popular in the world. I love all the things you do and how you fight for the human rights, this world needs to be fair and with a little effort we all can get it. So, as Euphoria says, 'Don't ever stop doing the things you do'. Thanks for everything and see you really really soon here. Adriรกn.

Dear Loreen,

Your amazing!!! Your voice is beautiful and your work for civil rights is inspiring. I've been obsessed with Eurovision since I was 7, so listen to lots of European music, not the British or American songs like everyone else. People say it's weird but I'm a warrior and you've taught me not to care. Well done and thank you for being an amazing person and role model. I listen to your music whatever mood I'm in and it always makes me feel great. You also have a great haircut, but unfortunately I dont think it would suit me ď Š. Please come to the UK!!!! Sarah Jackson, UK warrior, aged 14 xxxxxx

Hej Loreen, On the 26th of May 2012 I totally fell in love with you. It was a magical moment when I realized what an amazing and all the way perfect person you are! Now it has been a year since then and trough this year you've become the most important person for me. It'll always be that way ‌ You are my inspiration and everything and I can't never ever live without you! - your warrior: Taija-Maria from Finland

Dear Loreen, today it is exactly one year ago that you won the ESC and that you changed our all life's, each in different way. You turned Eurovision into a better Contest! And you gave us the power in many ways. I wanna thank you for that and so many other things but it would need a whole book to thank you for everything. There is just one thing wich is very important to me to thank you for. Last year I've been running through a hard time when I was in very bad health and for a little while I wasn‘t sure if I'll be ok again. I had nothing to do in Hospital and my family and friends are living far away from me since I left my Country, so I felt pretty scared and alone. Then you came along. Somehow you gave me the right kick, you showed me how to fight again. You gave me the power, you turned me into a Warrior & a real fighter and I wanna thank you for that from the bottom of my heart!!! Since ESC2012 you changed my world into a better place!!! Thank you, thank you and thank you! I love you for just being you! Your faithful Warrior Franzi

Hey Loreen, I am Sofia and I live in Gothenbourg, Sweden. I just wanted to tell you how much you have inspired me to be who I really am. You have given me the courage to come out with being bisexual and thanks to that I now have the most amazing girlfriend! Your voice is amazing and that you still are yourself with all this fame is something special. You always make me happy with your music and the things you do. I also work for human rights and I love the things you do! You are the best, and I'm a proud warrior! I love you more than I love chocolate, and that's a lot! I hope I get to see you and meet you soon! I saw you last summer, best day of my life! Take care! Jag 채lskar dig <3 Sofia

Hey Loreen, one year is over oh my god, that‘s gone so fast ! Now you're in my life, and i can't imagine how empty it would be without you. You change my life. i love you so much, that my friends thinks I'm crazy... i saw you often live, but never meet you.. one day it will happen, I know it. Your Album Heal and your singles are sooooo good! I can't stop listen to it! Love you and many wishes from Germany ! We got the power ! Yours Pilein

My dear Loreen, It's been one year since you won the ESC. I just want to thank you for everything, you've changed my life completely. You are really an inspiration for me and all Warriors. I found you before Eurovision, your powerful song ‘Euphoria’, a bit after Melodifestivalen. When I saw your performance, I was speechless. You were totally different than others, unique, and your voice... like an angel. Your music is healing me, especially when I'm sad. You have something in your voice and performances, that I can't describe, you sing with your heart, with passion. I‘m one of you Warriors and with some of them I am really close. They became my best friends and I am so much happier than before. You have shown everyone that someone can just step on stage, sing perfectly and stays natural. Today, I am proud Warrior, and I love you everyday more and more. I hope that you will come to some Balkan countries, just as Croatia, we really love you there and we can't wait to see you there! I love you so much and continue with your music, don't ever stop doing the things you do! I love you, Marita from Croatia <3

Hej kära Loreen! I'm Linda (littleLorpan), a 19 year old girl from Borlänge, Sweden. First I want to say thank you for everything you do for human rights, thank you for the music and thanks you also for making it possible to meet my girlfriend Kajsa Svensson due to your career! I'm a big admirer and I keep myself updated on what you are doing all the time. Not a day passes by without me listening to your music. I love your voice. You are unique and I've never seen an artist with such a great personality just as you! Loreen you have helped me overcome the hard periods in my life, when I was bullied. Your music have helped me on the way. It is fantastic how music can make you feel better. I can't hold my tears back when I see you on TV or in a video, because my hope to meet you is so strong. One of my biggest dreams is to see you sing live and to meet you. That dream will come true on the 24th of August when you are gonna preform at Gävle - Furuviksparken. When that happens I want time to stop so I can be in a bubble of ”Euphoria”! Your new song ''We Got The Power'' is so great. ''Together we are a union, together we are strong and together we have the power”. Loreen you make my life complete every day! ❤ Många kramar till dig Loreen från din krigare MiniLorpan!

❤

Hi Loreen, since I ‘ve seen you on the Eurovision 2012, I knew when I heard your song that you were going to win. ‘Euphoria’ is an amazing song you should be so proud. Ever since that I have followed you, waiting for the album ‘Heal’, its fantastic by the way.This is just the start as your going to be more famous. Hopefully you will visit Ireland some day as you have got a lot of fans here. We love you so much and good luck with everything. Charmaine Thomas Athlone, Ireland

Hej Loreen! I don’t really know what to say. There’s no way to thank you enough about everything you have done. I could never ask a better role model than you are. You have so much beauty inside and out that I can’t do anything than wonder how one person can be so amazing in every way possible. Everything you do and are is helping and pushing me to be a better me. The fact that I love the most about you is that you’re changing the world to a better place; you’re brave, wise and different. And I think that’s the fact why I love you, why you are my role model. Because that’s something I appreciate so much and something I want to be. I just… I don’t have enough words so just thank you. Thank you for everything. Love, Taru Sartolahti – a Finnish warrior

Dear Loreen, thank you for a year full of your music and you as a person. You know that we love you and we respect you really hard. Hope there will be many more years with your music and your talent, because you are a best friend in our lonely moments, our "drug".

Thank you for everything! Your supporting Team from Greece, Peter, Lia, Antreas, Kostas, Nikos.

Dear Loreen, My daughter informed me about your performance in the 1st semi final in Eurovision 2013 and we had a conversation about you and that she is afraid that you will dissapear one day from the music-industry because you and your music are so unique. So after your performance with the children i called her and i told her... "Let's think about snow and diamonds. When it is snowing everyone is amazed, excited and surprised. However, after a while snow becomes dirty and frozen on the roads so people lose their interest about it and they don't give a fuck for it. On the other hand, when you first see a diamond, its beauty is magnificent and breathtaking. If you through it in shit and you take it back after a while and you clean it, the diamond is still attractive and it still has its value. Loreen is a diamond, my girl!" Fotoula Arvaniti, Greece

Hi Loreen! I love you very much, you are my idol! You have an incredible character and I like you just the way you are. You are amazing for me and for many other warriors. I want you always to be happy and never be sad for nobody. If I ever meet you, I want to hug you and never leave you. I want to be like you! I can't describe all these I feel in a message like this or in a letter that's why my message is so short. I want to thank you because you entered in my life. I just love you, Maira Stavridi , Greece

Tjoföljt dear wonderful creature! I'm Tilda, 17 year old girl from Borlänge, Sweden. First of all, I want to say; Thank you. Thank you for giving me a second chance in life. Thank you for actually showing the world that it's okay to be just the way you want to be, and just the way you are. Without you, I wouldn't fight nowadays. You know that you've helped a lot of people, right? You've also saved peoples LIVES. I don't know how others feel, but I want you to know that you saved at least one. You saved me. For real. So be proud of yourself because I'm proud of you! I'm now moving with two friends several miles from home, just to fullfill my dream. To work with music. I've changed school, started over and all, because now I understand that life isn't worth living if you give up on your dreams. ”Sky's the limit, you can do whatever you want as long as you fight for it.” You have to thank your mother for that, really! That's my loved motto now. I will fight till the day I die. And I'll always fight for you! You mean more than anyone to me... Jag älskar dig mer än du någonsin kommer att förstå. ♥ Tilda, din krigare.

Oh, Loreen, a year already... times has passes so quickly, huh? As a devoted ESC fan, it was great to see my very favorite song of 2012 winning in such a landslide way, after many years of seeing my faves fall. ‘Euphoria’ is so incredible that I keep listening to it very often, it cheers me up when I feel down and makes me dance when I'm happy. I've said to many friends that if you competed again in Eurovision defending your title, you'd win again easily. Thanks to you, "Euphoria" and "Otherwordly" are common words in my vocabulary. Your music has helped me a lot through a kinda difficult year in my personal life. I got your promo pack in a radio draw and your CD "Heal" as a gift from a swedish friend; I'm so happy to enjoy all your songs and become one of the warriors, so much that I even learned your choreography, which I showed to my buddies in our local Europarty. Thanks for all the feelings you show and transmit through your voice, which in my opinion is powerful, soothing and energetic, all in one. I wish so much that you can come to Latin America and visit my country. Here's is a toast, for the first of many anniversaries, for more and more successes on your way. Kisses from Venezuela, RAFAEL

Dear Loreen, I'm forever amazed by the power your music & personality have had on myself and people worldwide. Your stunning Baku performance really helped me see the light when I was losing touch with myself, family, friends, & what I stood for - it sparked a sense of freedom & creativity in me that I realised I had missed. Your refreshing creations are clearly and truely from the heart and continue to inspire me. I was touched by your ESC 2013 performances & new single/video (and painted the lyrics on my wellies for the Isle of Wight Festival!), and if I get that excited seeking you on tv, I can only dream what you're performances are like live! :D You also inspired me to create a website, 'Equal Rights for All', about the work of human rights charities. Seeing your pro activity towards human rights & how much people mean to you, you made me realise it's important to me too. You showed me that it's possible to make a difference, no matter how small... So thankyou; for helping me rediscover myself, inspiring me to think creatively again & dream big, and for giving me the inspiration & energy to fight for a cause I feel I can now support. It seems we do have the power after all... Best wishes & a thousand hugs, Eleanor <3 (Isle of Wight, UK)

Hej Loreen, I have to admit that I dig your song 'Euphoria' from the very first time I watched you performing it at the Melodifestivalen online on svt play. Since that time I'm a devoted fan of you and I was sure that you would win the ESC in Baku. Which of course you did ! Eventhough I am not that kind of fan who is into writing “OMG OMG OMG, I LOVE YOU SOOOOO F*****G MUCH, I WANT TO BE LIKE YOU!!! XD” I have to confess that there was simply no better way to spend 48 minutes of my live time, than to sit down and listen to your début album HEAL. Besides that I love that you are so down to earth, and because of this I have so much respect you. I hope to be one day as successful as you are- no matter what my profession will be. You've made me think that everything we make with our heart is the best that we can do. I thank you for all that ! With love, Marisa / Austria

Hello Loreen, my name is Amanda and im 13 years old. I live in Skellefteå, Sweden. I wish I could write 100 pages for you now… haha! But I just wanna say to you that you have changed my whole life. And I remember a year ago when I discovered you. My first thought was: Omg she is so pretty,I wanna kiss her so badly hihi! I have thought about you everyday since then... You have helped me a lot… When times are really hard! And I love your beautiful voice and your album ‘’Heal’’ is just amazing! I can’t stop listen to it! And the way you peform on stage, I love it! And everytime I think about that day when you will perform in Skellefteå this summer I always smile! I’ve been waiting for more than 90 days. And I know that I will see you there soon… I cant wait. My biggest and only dream is to meet you Loreen. I hope it will come true! Jag älskar dig så jävla mycket! Amanda

Dear Loreen – Queen of the Eurovision Song Contest, on this date, exactly a year after your triumphed the Eurovision Song Contest in Baku, you beautiful angel gave us the gift of your music and your sweet voice was revealed to us. You sang us a lovely song which will remain in our memories just like it will remain in yours … I am sure… forever ! I’d just like to say...thank you so much for taking the decision to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest together with Ausben Jordan and making the 2012/2013 contests memorable. Thanks for entertaining me and your fans by releasing your euphoric album “Heal”. I hope that success will follow you wherever you go. You are the queen of the Loreenators and will remain the queen in our eyes and minds.

You’re a beating love within our hearts. We’re going u-u-u-u-u-u-up ...... From your fan in London, UK Gautam Sardesai

Hello Loreen, exactly one year ago you won the ESC and through it you changed my life and the life of every of your Loreenator. Thanks to you, we now know each other, and we are a real family surrounding you forever. In one year, we all lived so much emotions. I know you had an hard but amazing year too. I even remember the big project for your birthday. It was actually the first big Loreenators' project and I think it's what united us all :) It's crazy how after that everything went so fast. The releasing of your album, the million concerts you did.... I actually don't know what one year means, but I know it means something, although it's surely just the beginning of a long story... <3 I really wish I can meet you someday. It's just a dream for now, but a Loreenator said me one day : “If there is a will, there is a way" (see how your Warriors are smart actually! ;)), so it means I will NEVER give up and I will fight and keep hoping to see you! So I hope one day you'll come to France and do a gig here :D Anyways, I wish you good luck for the future and please go on forever :) Jag älskar dig , Hélène, Warrior from France

Hey sweet Loreen, First of all I want to say thank you for everything. For your music, for who you are, for making my life better, for giving me the chance to meet people from around the world. You changed our lives and united us. You make the world a better place. You’re a true role model. You gave us the power to fight for what we believe in, to be different, to break the pattern. We will always fight for you and support you, because you’re worth it. Together we are strong. You have forever a place in my heart. You mean a lot to me, not only your music but also you as a person. I'm happy that I have had the chance to meet you and I hope that one day I will so lucky to meet you again. I love how you sing with so much emotion and how you make it different every time. You’re the kindest, sweetest, most fantastic person I’ve ever met and I’m not saying that to kiss up. I mean it from the bottom of my heart. I love you and I miss you. See you in Antwerp! With love and big hug from your Belgian warrior Kimberley

Hi Loreen, It's been a year since I saw the Eurovision Song Contest in 2012 and I can not believe how fast this last year has passed: The best year of my life, a year when my life changed because of you . I listen to your music every day; it doesn’t matter if it’s the album "HEAL" or your new song “We Got the Power“, they are all amazing for me and I really like them a lot. You're the best artist in the world and you're my number one… Loreen . I love your voice, your golden voice and for me you are like an angel without wings and since May 26, 2012 when I first saw you, you remained in my heart and your voice brought a light there inside. You made my life better and therefore it means a lot to celebrate your one year anniversary since you became the winner of the ESC in Baku and our Queen of hearts . Happy One Year Anniversary Loreen and you will by always remain the only one winner for me Oana

Hi Loreen, I'm writing from the north of Poland - Gdańsk and i'm so excited to see you live for the first time in Warsaw on the 22nd of June ! Your creativity changed my life completely : I got to meet new, amazing friends, Warriors, your music is always healing my soul and I can't even put in words how much Ilove you. This year has been - by far - the best year of my life and I got a feeling that it will always be the best. You gave me something which other artists couldn't give, you opened my eyes for many important things in life and although I'm only 16 I can see and feel more than ever. Thank you for ALL Loreen - for all you do, for all memories, all tears of happiness, all friendships, all the love you give and we Warriors will always try to give you back as much as we can.

I love you for ever, faithful Warrior Angelika from Poland

Dear Loreen, one year has passed so quckly....One year can be a very long time for some, for others it can be just like a flash.... In one year a lot of things may happen, a lot of things can be changed, a lot of things can be done.... but one thing can be remembered forever! I wonder how you would describe a period of one year from your point of view? This is the first year of your special and very personal victory in ESC 2012 and it’s an unforgetable fact that will last forever in our hearts - the hearts of real warriors that are conquered by your talent! And, yes, during this year you made me to become a warrior, a real fighter, to believe in magic, you've entered my life and changed me to a better person! I took YOU as my mission in life and I think I will keep you in a special place in my heart! I met you in Romania and now I'm even stronger! You are real, a talented artist and an emotional and magical performer...you got a special power! And if your mission was to heal, to unite, to make something different, you can be sure that this mission has been succesfull during the past year‌ your message has been accepted from all over the world! Thank you that you are a part of my life! But talking about you, describing our feeling about you will never be enough... Thank you and remember that I love you! Kaloiana Dimitrova , Bulgaria

Hey Loreen! So, it's been one year already! I'ts gone so fast for us and I'm sure for you too ;) I feel so lucky to be one your warriors, because you've teached so much to all of us and I think we couldn't stop being so thankful for that. I've only met you once, but what you made me feel, your kindness, and everything you told me really touched me deep in my heart.

I want you to know that I'll always be beside you, that you've got all of us backing you up everytime you need it. We got the power. Here's to many more years. Love you, kisses from your spanish warrior, Lucia. xoxo

Hej finaste L. This was the year for you and your warriors, this will always be a special year for me. I never had a role model before. I know that some people think Im to old to be such a huge fan, but now that I found you Im not gonna let you go because you are younger than me! Your music makes me feel, like I said to you in Ă–rebro; thank you for beeing my heart opener and know that you are loved by so many people! Continue to help your warriors to be true to themself, "IMPORTANT!" As you once said ;) Ă„lskar dig alltid. /Helena warrior from Sweden

Dear Loreen, how time flies! A year ago it happened – I fell in love with you and your music/art during your performance at Eurovision. It was such an overwhelming and magical moment for me. From that day on I became a huge fan and admirer of your work and listened to your music every single day! Not only that, you’re such an amazing, warm-hearted and unique person. But what I appreciate the most, your talent to inspire people – me, especially when I’m planning new video/photo projects for college. Thank you for everything you have done for us! I’ll always be one of your warriors – till the end of time!  Much love, hugs and greetings from Austria! Yours, Nadine (21)

Dear Loreen! I heard about you at the finals of Eurovision 2012. That day completely changed my life. You are such an inspiration and role-model to me. I love you more than my whole life. You've given me so much strenght and power to go on with my life. Without you I don't know where would I be now. Your music always makes me feel better, your eyes are so deep and they bring me so much emotions. Hope you will come to Croatia one day, because that would make my biggest dream come true. We love you so very much here and we need good music, because what we have here is a big disaster. Thank you for everything, I love you. Many hugs and kisses Kristina, Croatia

Älskade Loreen ❤ You are so damn beautiful and I love everything about you. Your music (sound ) and your passion for human rights, your passion for your fans and your passion for life. You've brought new words to our lifes- warriors, power and I love sentences :) I'm crazy about you!!! Can't wait to meet you in person ! I'm your warrior for life! Jag älskar dig som fan! Kärlek från Helena "helblondi" Dahlgren /Sweden

Hej Loreen! There are so many amazing things that has happened around you this year! For me it started in February 2012, when you won your first round in Melodifestivalen in Växjö. From that day I already knew that you were The Winner. That was the day when I became a big fan of yours for sure! Still today, a year later, I get so many good memories and even goose bumps when I listen to "Euphoria". I guess you can say that I kind of...fell in love with you that day! And I know that you know that I love you, I write that all the time on your Facebook wall! Sorry for the spamming... ;) My first time seeing you in real life was att the TV-show "Allsång på Skansen". I was sitting in the front row, in the wheelchair section. Loreen, I promise you, that was the absolute best day of my life! Unfortunately I didn't get to meet you in person that day, because of cranky security guards that almost pushed me away. NOW we're getting to a very interesting thing! Because when I wasn't allowed to meet you, I sadly drove off in my wheelchair, and I kind of talked to myself and said "please, if someone listens, please let me at least get a little glimpse of her"! And guess what happened? Yepp, about one minute later I saw you when you got in to your car, and I gathered some courage. Suddenly I heard myself yelling: "Wow, you got such a nice car!". And...you answered "Thank you!". A few months later, in October, I got my first chance to get to meet you. It was at the record signing in Stockholm. Oh my God, I was so nervous, and I woke up about 5 AM in the morning! Really crazy! I wasn't exactly hungry for breakfast or food in general that day... To meet you there was really amazing! You were so kind and calm, and really took your time with me. I really appreciated that, and I want you to know that! /Hugs and kisses from your warrior Jenny and my dog Zack, Stockholm, Sweden

Hi Loreen, I will start off from saying how much your music and personality has changed me over a year from hearing you for the first time on the Eurovision stage. You have shown me to act the person who I am not who I am not. Since voting for you in the contest I have shown much support to you by buying your album 'Heal' and your new single 'We Got the Power'. Which both are incredibly mind-blowing. Furthermore each performance you produce to people is also amazing you never fail to impress. I especially liked the performance at P3 Guld. I wish I was there to see it live. In conclusion I hope you have many more years to come. 'One year gone and hopefully lots more to come'. Thank you for being who you are

Your warrior Adam from Knaresborough, United Kingdom

Hej Loreen, I hope I'll be able to express myself in this short message, as I've got so many thoughts about you and it's quite difficult to put them in one place. Ever since I discovered you last year, in the ESC '12, my love for you has been getting bigger and bigger every single day, every single hour, every single second. You've changed me a lot, helped me to find the actual real me. You're always natural, always yourself, not afraid to stand for your rights and your opinion. You've brought the strength in me, taught me to not be scared to be different, YOU MADE ME A WARRIOR. Also, until last year music had been‌ just music to me. Nothing too special, I enjoyed listening to it and that's all. But thanks to you, darling, I've learned to let music inside, to understand and feel it fully. Now it brings up the emotions in me, I can feel it moving inside. You've inspired me to start drawing again as well. And just in conclusion, before I was a fake, confused person. Mostly thanks to you, you made me get rid of all the fakeness, become more sensitive, be honest to myself, start feeling.. I might still be a bit confused, but I see the inside of me as an empty, airy space, which is now capable of letting inside feelings, who move freely in there, get in and get out whenever they want causing different effects every time. I really hope you're doing well and I wish the best of luck for you. I love the things you do and, most importantly, I LOVE YOU. Stay strong, Justine

Hi dear Loreen , It has been a year since you won ESC and change the life of so many people. I have been follow you since idol 2004 and when I saw you again 2011 in Melodifestivalen I was so happy that you had come back and that you were sharing your beautiful voice with us. 2012 was a magical year for you and for me… the year that I became a Loreenator / Warrior. The first time I heard ‘Euphoria’ and saw your performance from Växsjö I know that you would win Melodifestivalen and the whole ESC and I was right . I listen to your music daily and look at interviews and performances of you and I cant get enough of it.. hahaha You will always have my love and support till the end of time and you will always have a place in my heart forever and ever. I have met you a couple of times and these times were the best times in my entire adult life!! You are the most warm hearted woman I have ever met and so beautiful … OMG I can’t wait till I will meet you again , sweetie! You have a big big heart … Love from your warrior forever Jeanette Ståhl

Hi Loreen, We celebrate one year since that remarkable moment when you won Eurovision, but that was not only the moment when you won the contest, it was the moment when you won our hearts with your amazing song named Euphoria. While you performed, even since the semifinal I was thinking, as your song said ” Why, why can't this moment last forevermore?” but it lasted in our memory and of course in our hearts. I want to thank you because you have given us this wonderful song. I admire you as an artist and also as a person because you always say to believe in ourselves, which is something that sometimes I forget. I had the opportunity and the honour to have met you, which is something that I’ll never forget. ♥ Together, with all the warriors, We got the power! T hank you for everything! With love, Ana from Romania

Hello Loreen, One year after the glorious victory! A victory well deserved and not contested, I fondly remember that moment when you enchanted with your music and talent, giving us an incomparable song called "Euphoria". Your music, notes, the rhythm sketched my existence and each song composed and performed by you has an interesting story, converted into vibrations of the heart for everyone. Everytime in My head i want to See you again but My heart is refusing me, Do we even matter?! Crying out your name is Requiem solution but i am Sober. Go on Sidewalk and i think Breaking robot but i know to Heal my Euphoria. We got the power because If she's the one? A small pun .... With respect and appreciation! Alexandra from Romania

Hi Loreen, Here from Scotland I am one of your many Warriors. It's hard to tell you in one paragraph how amazing you are to me and how you are such an exceptional human being. Your music and your voice is just breath taking and from the euro-vision in 2012 you have lit the way for me. You are yourself and you don't let anyone change you. Standing up for what you believe in is hard in the society that we live in nowadays but in some way you make it possible, you are our louder voice. You dare to be different and your bravery amazes me in so many ways as you continue to push boundraies. YOU GAVE ME THE POWER. I have got to become friends with other loreenators from around the globe and we speak on a regular basis, it's amazing how much that people so far away from one and other could have so much in common and are able to speak to one an other with so much love and comfort. For this I want to say Thank you, this is nowhere near what you have given me but I hope you love it and I hope hope to meet you soon ! Love from Scotland, Bernadette McNair â?¤

Dear Loreen, where do I even begin? I first got to know you in 2011 with ‘My Heart Is Refusing Me’. I immediately loved your way of expressing yourself on stage. Your song was one of my favourites from that year. Little did I know you would contribute to my life with so much more through 2011 and on. Since that first introduction to Loreen Talhaoui, I have learned so much from you. About art, about music, about life! You have not only brightened my days with your glowing personality and incredible music (seriously though - you sure know how to create great tunes!) but made me feel better about myself and all that comes with that. I am still not 100 percent sure about my sexuality, but I know that when I am ready to be myself - I won’t be scared, embarrassed or lonely, because YOU have taught me not to be. I am very thankful for that! So therefore I give you my best wishes, my love and my hope for you to continue to brighten my days and everyone else’s days for many, many more years. THANK YOU, Kisses from Filippa xxx / Sweden

Dear Loreen , Congratulations on the first anniversary! My name is Erika. I am Japanese. I watched you for the first time last year in Sweden. It was at the Melodifestivalen performed in Växjö. You were very attractive, because your clothes, stage lighting and set did not distract too much from you. I became your fan immediately. I felt it with my heart but I cannot express it with my words. It seemed to me like you were some kind of SAMURAI. Thank you for coming to Japan this year. I am very honored to choose that you come to Japan. Please come to Japan again. and, please enjoy your holidays if possible. I think that the various Japanese culture will give you much inspiration for sure. After becoming your fan I’m happy every day. Loreen, thank you for becoming a singer. I thank Team L and Loreen-International always for their pages. And thanks to the Warriors. Even if I am in Japan, thanks to your reports, I can enjoy it every day. Thank you. I get the power by you. Really congratulations on the first anniversary. Erika

Dear Loreen, I know about you for few moths, and I saw almost all of your performance, and I think - you are amazing! I'm from Czech Republic, and I'm 14 years old, I told to my friends about you, and showed them your videoclips, and they too think that you are amazing! You are very beautiful and talented! Your songs are exactly from life, I love them and I must listen to them every day. For only one year after winning the Eurovision Song Contest you achieved great success. You're the best singer from the Contest ever! I wish you all best, keep making those great songs, I love them! I wish you'll come to Czech Republic in the future, and if you do - of course I will be there. Jitka from Czech Republic, love u! <3

Dear Loreen, You changed everybodys life with your soul and you humbleness. You were that missing puzzle piece that you need just to complete the puzzle of the Eurovision Song Contest. Your a great inspiration and a great humanist. I love you. Your the reason to why we are proud to be warriors! We got the power ‌ LinnÊa , warrior from Sweden

Hej Loreen, Now one year has passed since you won the Eurovision Song Contest in Baku. I wish I had been there, because I am one of your true Swedish fans. I want you to know that I believe you are someting more than just an Eurovision Song Contest Winner! You are much more than that because you are a unique musical artist. I consider the ESC in Baku only as the starting point of new amazing musical creations from you. I wish you all success in the future! Yours sincerely, Daniel Bengtsson

Hey Loreen, I didn't want to miss the opportunity to once more be thankful for what you do for all of us and for me individually. I don't think you truly realize that you mean so much more than you can imagine to me. You represent some of the values that I've always stood for, and to see someone fight for them and suceed, is definitely encouraging to keep doing it myself. Apart from that, I just wanted to thank you for being you. Yeah, I know that's a clichĂŠ, but as my friend says: it's your human quality, truthfulness and your constant reinvention as an artist what sets you apart from others. So thank you. Thank you for being there, thank you for bringing us all warriors together and thank you for always being so nice and lovely to all of us whenever we've had the chance to meet you. It means incredibly much. And as I once said to you: tack fĂśr att du finns. As simple as I love you. And I mean it, you're so special. Blanca, Spain.

Dear Loreen, an old Romanian proverb says that "birds of a feather flock together" and this actually happened to us … to all your fans; you bring us togheter and as you can see we gathered tightly around you, because we love you so much and to be with you , support you just want you know. Since the year that I saw you in ESC2012, our first family practice in the morning is to read messages and see what the fans post on your facebook page and others related to you . And it’s the same in evening too, so we are always connected trying to keep up with you. We try be always with you even that we live so far apart. So for you… just know we will always be “behind you ” supporting you and love you. With appreciation and love , your fan Ioana Grigore, Romania

Loreen, my Loreen, ours Loreen. I started loving you when I first saw you performing on this beautiful red outfit, the first year you participated in Melodifestivalen. The first thing that i thought was "man this woman knows how to make a difference". Your songs are my inspiration. Your voice is my peacefulness. If only I could describe in words what is your impact on me. I gain strength from your power. I gain love from your music. I know that whenever I feel miserable or angry or wrong, you will be there for me via your music. And I always come back to you. One of my biggest dreams is to hug you and sceam how much you mean to me. Hope it will come true. Your greek warrior, Ariadni Zorba

Dear Loreen, my name is Melissa and I’m from Belgium. I don’t know if you still remember me but I had a meet & greet with you at the Qube previous year on the 3th of December. It was a very memorable day which I clearly will treasure forever :D. I’m sure it will be quite the same on the 10th of August! I’m really looking forward to see you perform again. I want you to know that I’m still a huge fan of you, although I’m not the same as I was in the beginning, but I still follow what you do, still listen to your music (especially in the car every day), dying to see you perform live again, introducing your songs on the radio (haha) and so on. I still admire you as the person and artist! You are as I still belive one of the most talented artists in the world and your songs are such an inspiration for me – especially your new song “We got the power”. What a great piece of artwork that is!!! And that videoclip is really……WOOOOW. Great work you’re doing and please keep doing it for a very long time… girl! You got the power! ;-) With love, Melissa

Dear Loreen, The past year has been extraordinary! After your Eurovision victory I just felt like I had to find out more about you, since your performance had a great impact over me. And that’s how my life changed. With every performance, every interview, my admiration and love for you have grown, and now a day without your music feels incomplete. You are a perfect role-model for me, an amazing teacher. Thanks to you now I feel much better about myself, I’m stronger and I’m actually fighting for my dreams. I want to thank you for being who you are and for doing the things you do, because in my opinion, you make the World a better place! Love you sooooooooo much! <3 Your faithful Warrior, Andreea Alexandra Miroiu, Romania

Hey dear Loreen, If could I would write at least 100 pages about you! You are so great and your voice gives me goosebumps. You are a professional in everything. You changed my life, of course, in a positive way. You’ve got so much power and that also give me power, and the new single of yours (“We Got the Power”) is also proof that you know what you're doing, you hit us .. really with everything you do! It's been a year since you have won, and I miss those day! I went crazy watching it on TV and jumped in the air when you won! Truly the best ESC winner ever! Now we do have the one year anniversary. And I miss that time  . I'm really grateful for what you do! You really mean a lot to me, you let me see things. If people sometimes say negative things about you, I use to get angry but now I think as of: Loreen has changed my life, I'm much happier now! Thanks for that Loreen, I'm a Warrior / Loreenator forever. I’m sure that you will go on to inspire us with your beautiful art and remember always, we love you! See you in Antwerp on August 10! With lots of love, your Warrior from the Netherlands, Irenka!

Dear Loreen, A year ago you won the ESC with the beautiful song “Euphoria”…what a great peformance! And still whenever I hear “Euphoria” I get goose bumps and I sit with tears in my eyes listening to your beautiful voice and that touches me deeply. Then you released your first album “Heal” a masterpiece with beautiful songs, your music warms me every time. And now your great new single “We Got the Power!” You rock. Loreen you are an amazing artist and a sweet angel. You can not imagine how you changed our lives. I never saw a woman like you before. So lovely and full of respect, to her fans and to everyone. Loreen I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, that we have found you and each other. Once again, congratulations and I wish you many years of success. And don’t forget that your warriors are always by your side to support and love you. I am so proud to be one of your warriors. Sweetie … I love you and your music forever! Big kisses and hugs, Your warrior: Claudia van der Veen from the Netherlands xxx

Hey Loreen congratulations on your one year anniversary on winning the Eurovision Song Contest! My name is Shilletha and I am from the United States of America. I was studying abroad in Cluj and I recently saw you for the first time at he days of Cluj-Napoca in Romania during your sound check. I was drawn in by your singing of "No Woman No Cry" and I fell in love with your voice. I think you are so beautiful and such an inspiration to LGBT people! I am a lesbian and you have given me the courage to believe in myself. Thank you so much for all that you do, and I hope some day you will come to the United States. I love you! -Love, your Warrior Shilletha

Hej Loreen! A year ago you have ignited the souls and hearts of us, your warriors all over the world! You have reached the core of our being and helped us realize that simplicity and honesty are our real treasures. You erased the boundaries between ages, nationality, religion and politics. Everybody adores you! You and your music continue to be a concoction of magic and freedom, of emotion and motion, the same experience we enjoy with "Euphoria". My pledge to you as your loyal warrior is to spread love to all for a united world! All the love from your warriors from the Philippines and Sweden! Samurai Nanay

Hi Loreen! I rember the day when you won! Me an my friend were at home alone. She fall asleep just when they started to give points. Just when they gave you your last points she woke up and I just yelled "We are going to win!� That was the best nigth ever! You have done so much to me! You have helped me so much in my life and you means so much to me! Lovisa from Sweden

Hej Loreen, Music has power to heal and with one long year it can do magic. Music came in to my life a year ago, with ‘Euphoria’. Before last years Eurovision Song Contest, music meant just a sound to me, something that my teacher forced me to do. Ever since my life fell in to place. Now I have a goal in life and it's all because of you. Somehow even my friends started to like you more and more and for the first time of my life they understood me. The power of your music healed me from being to shy and being afraid of everything. Words can't express how much you mean to me. You look absolutely perfect and the way you are passionate about Human Rights inspires me a lot. Never stop doing the things you do, you are the sun in the sky for me! Adeele ♥ from Estonia

Dear Loreen, You are amazing, so very talented and every time I hear your music, I feel so happy, the words are very powerful and the melody is so very moving. A truly gifted, talented and loving person you are. The world is a better place with you in it. x My best wishes, Elaine / United Kingdom

Dear Loreen, I cannot believe how fast time passed from when you won the Eurovision Song Contest. Congratulations! I knew it from the first time that you will be the winner. Your songs are amazing and they fascinate me. You are amazing! You are an angel and a role model for me and you changed my life! You changed our lives. Your concerts are beautiful and you have the most amazing voice I have ever heard. I hope you will be visiting Romania once again, one day, because we all want to see you again! And it is true: We all got the power! Your Warrior from Romania, Astrid

Hi Loreen, well I only have words of gratitude for being who you are and have the integrity you have. You are a help for people as you must know. You are a very helpful person, I couldn't do what I do without your help, withouth your words, your voice and the way you give yourself to the people who follow you. Thank you for the times you have been with us in Spain, so I hope we can spend more time together because I will be there to support you no matter what. I also will be there in Sweden with some Spanish warrior, I hope we can meet you because we will travel just to see you, this will heal my ache soul for a while so this will mean so much for me. Thank you for being here with me in my bad moments although you are far away. My best wishes, Nuria. I Love you.

Hej Loreen! I was wondering how I could summarize how much you have changed my life in a one year, but I understood it to be impossible because you have changed my life so much, in a good way of course. Your way to speak, laugh, move and use your voice is something incredible. When I am sad I always start to listen to your songs and watch your videos and it make me feel so much better. I can't ever thank enough Sweden and ESC that I found you. This year has been, Euphoric, haha :) You are my biggest idol, inspiration and rolemodel! And you really are the most beautiful woman and person that I have ever seen, inside and outside! Thank you Loreen! I love you from the bottom of my heart!

- from Your faithful Warrior, Anna-Leena from Finland

Hi Loreen, it's really astonishing that already more than a year has passed since your victory at the ESC. Nevertheless, I still remember the evening of May 26th like it had been yesterday. I hadn't seen you before, only heard that you were the favourite - but honestly, I've been a Loreenator since the very first second I saw you on stage. Your performance was so mysterious, outstanding, different from all the others. And, just as your personality, simply fascinating. I KNEW that you were gonna win this, and even if you hadn't, I wouldn't have been able to forget about you. There have been celebrities whom I've liked for some time, but then gone off, but generally I've never been the kinda person who freaks out because of famous people. Anyway, you are an exception, and I swear that I'll always stay a warrior. The only one in Austria, as far as I know. Some time ago, you were at the airport in Vienna, but I hope you'll also give a concert there one day! People in my country also needa get the chance to become that enthusiastic about you as I already am! And I really really wanna meet you in person :) What makes you so special apart from your gorgeous look and your kindness is the way you treat your fans, that you take your time for them and also remember so much... Like, really care for them. I hope I'll also be able to hug you some day. Maybe in "year two"? For the time being, I just wanna let you know that I love you with all my heart. I'm especially glad because of your commitment concerning equality and gay rights. I'm gay myself, and it was a long way to come out and be proud of who I am. But now I know that it's necessary to break the pattern, and I find it really great that you're encouraging people in countries where it's not easy to be just the way you are. Please never stop doing the things you do! :) Some people may not understand us warriors and make fun of us, like I've also experienced it. But we just don't care and will always carry on supporting you. Cause we got the power!! ♼

Love, Claudia

You´ve changed the direction of my life. You being you have given me the peace to be me. And I feel true joy now. Very few things in life have touched me like you. And nothing is what it was before. Life has become beautiful. This is my thank you to you with all my love. Wish you all the best in the future. Ă…sa Kristin / Sweden

Hello Loreen, I would first like to say how perfect you are and how you inspire me and all of your Warriors. You are the greatest role model with a stunning voice and the most meaningful songs. I always listen to your album 'Heal' and is still on the top of my album pile! 'Euphoria' has created so many memories and I will remember that song 'forever till the end of time' you really have made us so proud. I am from the United Kingdom, and I keep dreaming that someday you will come over here and put on a show for us. I've noticed the UK warriors have been growing bigger and stronger each day and we hope you know UK loves Loreen :-D I have to thank you for including my drawing of you on your Facebook page, I think its amazing how you notice the Art we create of the beautiful YOU! 'Don't ever stop doing the things you do' Loreen, thank you for the beautiful music, LOVE YOU! <3 #WeGotThePower ! Love From Katie Wilson in the UK

But then you stepped into my life. Since I watched you for the first timein Baku on stage last year I know what it means to have a role model or idol. And I’m glad cause of this. You totally reachand catch me with your performances . One year ago I became a proud Loreenator and I started to love you more an dmor with each day : The most important thing for me ist to meet you. I hope to get the chance to tell you all personally someday. Loreen, thank you for everything you gave me. Eventhough you don’t know me personally you did already sooo much for me: You’ve made my world a better place. Stay as you are and never change... cause you’re amzing just the way you are. Hugs from your German Warrior, love you so freaking much ... Nadine

Hello dear Loreen!! Do you remembered this picture you saw 10th July 2012 on " Allsång på Skansen "? You gave me longway kisses and I enjoyed! This was the first time I saw you live and after that 5 times more and I will see you more times in the future!!

You changed my life and one year after the ESC victory I’ve been through so much adventures and I take all the memories to my heart. I will never forget what you have done and what you do in the future for me and all your fans over the world!! I want to thank you for everything from my heart forever. Many hugs from your warrior, Christer Axelsson in Sweden

Hello, Loreen! Your human qualities are so great that I could not explain them with words, but thank you for everything. Thank you for fight ing against all that is unfair. You already know it, but do not ever change for anything in the world! In addition, I love to read the experiences that the warriors have with you . Your warrior Merche or (Mercedes like your car! haha) from Spain Jag 채lskar dig / Te quiero!

Dear Loreen, It is a year ago that you have changed my life. You performed at the Eurovision Song Contest with “Euphoria� and I really liked the song and I hoped you would win. And it happened. A few weeks later, I wanted to know more about you and googled your name. I liked your page on Facebook and I became a Warrior. I have sooo much respect for you. You are big example for me. Your voice and music really touches me. Because of you, I dare to be myself and I am a lot more open to other people. I have met other Warriors on Facebook and with some of them I am very close. You have really made my life a lot better. You are so unique and special and there is no one like you. I can't describe how much I love you. Thank you very much for EVERYTHING what you have done and never stop doing the things you do! I hope to see you soon in The Netherlands! Lots of love, Mireille Lanser

Hej Loreen, You mean more to me than I could ever explain in just a few lines. Since I saw you in the Melodifestivalen 2012 for the first time, I can't get you out of my head. I have to think about you everyday. About your laughter, your voice... Your smile is my favorite smile and your way to dress is my favorite style. Doesn't matter where I am or how I feel, as long as I've got your music with me everything is fine. You changed my whole life. I don't know what I would do if I didn't know you now. I love you more and more with every passing day and I can't and won't ever stop loving you. You are the one star in the starlit sky who is shining every night as brighter as all the others together. I will never stop believing that I meet you one day. Loreen, don't ever stop doing the things you do. I love you. Greetings from Germany Asminah

Dear Loreen, one year has passed since my daughter and me discovered you , in this year you have made our life better and every day had a special meaning since then - thanks to you. I experienced difficult times in my life before and we had problems in the family ‌but this year (from the day that you won until now) it was a time full of happiness and good things. With your amazing talent you came into our life and with your music you enlighted all our days . You changed many lifes , you’ve done so many many good things , you fight for people rights and all that I saw , read and heard about you. All that made me feel proud as a fan and makes me say : You are an amazing person ! With this anniversary I want thank you for all what you do. Keep up doing all this amazing things that you do ! As a mom I want thanks to your mom too and tell her that she has an amazing daughter . My daughter loves you as much as I do and we will support you in every moment as much as we can. Your Daiana and Jana from Romani

Dear Loreen, one year has past and the memories are still clear: 26th May 2012-the night when all our hearts were beating as one,when we were all thinking about that special person we love, admire, respect and support. The Eurovision Song Contest 2012 was different for me, even though I’ve been watching the show since 2003. It was actually the first year when I had my favourite before the contest began and I really want it to win.It was the first time that I voted, the first time that I was so involved in this contest and it’s all because I wanted to support you as much I could. In that night I felt happiness and pride because Europe understood your message and was amazed by your talent. You’re more than just a Eurovision winner, you’re a true and devoted artist. Your voice and personality are very rare in today’s music industry. It is very easy to see that what you do and create, that you do it all with passion and I’m very happy to admire such a beautiful artist. Thanks to you, 19/11/2012 and 25/05/2013 will remain as the best days in my life. With Love, Claudia Florea,Romania.

Dear Loreen, After winning a ticket for your concert at the Qube on 03.12.2012 in Belgium, I was dying to finally meet and see you... My God It was an amazing show!! After a while I came in contact with a girl who was sitting next to me during the concert, also a Loreenator. We kept on talking on Facebook, chatted a little bit, skyped and after a while we became friends, now after 6 months I can call this girl my girlfriend and we have a beautiful relation. Loreen, because of you I went to your show and met my future wife. I'm no longer afraid of who I really am. You taught us to not be afraid for being who you really are, you gave us the strenght to be whoever you want to be and to be never afraid of the things you want to do. We want to thank you, just for the person you are, the art you create and the love and friendship you shine on all of us. Thanks for everything - you changed our lives forever! Your Warriors Sarah & Kaija

Hi Loreen, So it's been a year... a year following you in a beautiful journey with only guide your music and your voice. A beautiful night you entered our lifes and you became a part of it, a theme in our conversations, a daily wonder for where are you, if there are news from you... With your attitude you became for us a role model, a real woman to look up to... With your music you give us strength, power, a lot of messages for life and love and with your lyrics you speak directly to our heart. Thank you for a year full of breathtaking and emotional moments... Go on and stay strong! We will be with you as long as it's possible...

Georgia Valachi, Proud Warrior from Greece.

Hej Loreen, Already in 2011s Melodifestivalen, I really liked your voice and the variation between high and low “energy levels”. It was so different and something special with it! When you then won Melodifestivalen in 2012, I almost got “Euphoric” of happiness, and just wanted you to win ESC, something I´ve never felt before! Your music´s giving so much energy, as I could tell you in Orsa! I want to thank you for being that special person you actually are, everything you´re doing for other people, you´re so personal in every meeting! Your way to act and showing possibilities is astonishing and to me a sign of freedom in your heart. Since you “got into my life” I more and more often get a feeling of “doing the right thing” – so don´t ever stop the things you do, Loreen!! Love you endlessly :) Your swedish warrior forever till the end of time… Kerstin Kenia

Hej Finaste Loreen How fast a year can go, one year ago I didn’t know the Warriors/Loreenators and now we are a big Family. I clearly remember beeing 10 years old and watching Idol 2004 and saw you, you were my favorit. But in 2011 I saw you again and my heart and my life changed forever. ‘My Heart is Refusing Me’ was one of the best songs in 2011 and I was addicted to it. But in 2012 I fell deeply in love with your voice, presence and your wonderful personallity. I loved your Human Rights involvement in Baku. And your victory made my YEAR, I sang, screamed, cried and danced all night after your victory and 26/5-12 will always be the turning point in my life. You have chaned my life in ways that I could write a whole novel on, I hope to tell you soon. I’m blessed that I had the chance of meeting you and I love the way you take your time with your fans. I Love you more then anything my Angel. Kajsa / Sweden

Dear Loreen, I am so happy to finally have found an artist that comes from the same world I do. We have so many things in common even though I'm not an adult like you. Whenever I see you I can see you aura and your personality is just… You are so amazing. You are a huge inspiration for me. Without you... I don't know. You're music and appearance helps me through bad times. The past months of my life has been chaotic and it has been alot of things surrounding me, but when I got to "know" you, I automaticly found ways to get through it. The funny thing actually is that after I got to "know" you, I found out we are practising the same yoga. When I saw you something spiritual happened. I can't describe it. When I found out you were comming to Norway my heart skipped over a beat. I'm totally gonna be there! I say it now and I mean it: No you, no me. This summer I have decided to make something to you and send it. I won't tell what it is yet, though! I'm sorry for writing so messy. I have a habbit of being a dramaqueen... (and shy and incognito.) And that's how I've always been, I'm not going to change that. Oh by the way, you have an amazing haircut. Me want! I might even write a more personal letter to you sometime when I don't have that much weight on my shoulders. Probably one time this summer vacation? Hmm… But as I said, I feel a spiritual connection. When I see you I get an undiscribable feeling. It is something... Deeper. Now finally I just want to say that I truly and deeply love you, and that I'm looking forward to see you at Rådhusplassen in Oslo! Jag älsker dig/ Jeg elsker deg! - Amanda, norwegian warrior

Loreen The first time I laid eyes on you, it was like I've truly met someone to get inspiration from. Sadly, we haven't stared into each other’s eyes, but I really do believe that day will come some day. I really would love to get a wig like your hair and use for my Euphoria dance that I do all the time at parties and in my spare time. Loreen, may you shine on this earth forever, I LOVE YOU!!!!!!! Hope to hear from you soon Steven Murphy / United Kingdom

Hej, kära Loreen, One day, I heard your voice and I blocked in front of the tv. When I hear your music, I feel that anything is possible, If we just believe in ourselves and in our capacity to transform the world. What distinguishes you from all other artists isn´t only your beautiful voice, your “strange” performance (in a good way xD) or your special songs, but also the capacity to make your songs became true. The feeling that you put in them is so real, that brings us to another dimension. I think ‘Euphoria’ translates well the feeling that each warrior has while listening to your songs, the butterfly in the belly, the chills, it's amazing how you are able to create a whirlwind of feelings. I just want to thank you for bringing joy, harmony and freedom for all of us. You're not just a singer, you're a warrior. Tack for being the best and for waking me up every day with your melodious voice. And please come to Portugal. You rock girl! With love from your warrior, Carolina Pinto from Portugal

Hi Loreen, It's probably that you didn't know who I'm, maybe I'm just one of your many fans. However, for me, you are not only an "idol". I believe that when we were born we have a misson in our life and some people were born to bring peace, happiness and hope to ones hearts, like you do through your music, your engagement for the human rights and your kindness! I appreciate you, and you can't image how fantastic your smile works for me whenever I'm down. Every time when I see your smile it makes me feel sunshiny and warm, every time when I hear your sing it makes me feel happy. Because of your beautiful voice and the harmony of your music. You already become the indispensable part in my life unconsciously. Thanks for the happy and warm life which you give fans like me. Kisses , Lucia - from Liechtenstein

My dearest Loreen, finally I'm here writing this lines for you and I’m really hoping that you will be able to read them. I can't find the exact words that are IN MY HEAD when I try to talk about your music and what kind of impact it has on mee and my feelings. To be honest I have to admit that I wasn't a big fan of ‘Euphoria’ when I first heard it, because I didn't agree to the statement that a song could win Eurovision even before winning the national final, but then I understood it all… I got the message you're giving with that precious song, the universal message that let us CRYING OUT YOUR NAME. You put so much soul in your music. You're such a great artist, it's not only your music or your voice, it's the whole package that you have, the looks, the power to enchant everybody with your voice , with your messages….. I could keep going to describe it all but I wouldn’t have enough room to write it all down here. THANKS for being such a great human being and thanks for giving EUPHORIA a new meaning (I must say that now, whenever I hear that word, I think of you). You have me in a constant state of Euphoria with your music. You‘ ve got my 52-year-old dad being fascinated by your music, he says that you resemble Donna Summer, the looks, the voice, the power you show. He really loves you! But not as much as I do. Sending you lots of love from Venezuela, Your loyal warrior Karlym Alejandra

Loreen, you are an everlasting piece of art. Love you till the end of time â?¤ Lilit

Time runs fast …. in our life things come and live but some of them let a deep trace in our heart . One year has gone since you - the woman who at that time was a new star - won the Eurovision Song Contest. Now thousands and thousands of people have got a faith, a way, a person who changed their lifes . I knew about you since 2011 and I followed every step you took because you’ve been a big change in my life. During this years ESC in Malmö memories from the past time came to my mind…. I miss that time …. I remember how it was to wait and see messages from Baku on your page , waiting for rehearsal videos just to proove that everything was okay and to see the whole emotions and feelings at the final . That night , that emotions , your happiness brought a light in my heart, I cried and I screamed in happiness then when you won. I will remember your smile forever, your words which will remain forever in my heart. Beside all this I want to mention something that made me very proud of you while lasz years contest ; you've changed the contest “face” with the fight for humans right you highlighted a right signification of the ESC . What you’ve done there in Baku and after Baku with this fight was a huge courage act and more... It was a great help and a work made by a person with a huge heart, a person so beautiful inside and outside, who wanted to give from her heart everything what she could do for people and this make me say that for real you are an angel on this earth. My sincere congratulation for what you’ve done , what you do and what you will do - and your way of thinking and for what you are: A person with a beautiful mind. So you totally enriched my heart, my mind , everything, you 've enriched my whole life. Happy one year anniversary! The day when you won I will keep and remember in my heart like the day when god gave our whole world an angel, and I mean you ..Loren . With love from your fan, Alina-Elena Băcilă

I want to say it, just for the record That you still got my heart and my soul And though we‘re worlds apart I just want to let you know…. You took the piece I can‘t replace You left a mark that won‘t erase Never mind what people say cause they don‘t understand how you left a permanent stain on our hearts that will never leave. Wash away the tide never gonna fade No one can touch that flame or tame the fire …. Reinhard
