There is a huge decline in the success of the MF though, ever since they are trying to create it as a Spotify playlist sales/streams of the official album are way down. From being the #1 best selling album every year to finishing 14th in 2018 and 43rd in 2019. Down to # 96 in 2021 and not even in the top 100 in 2022. But it has to be noted that the Melodifestivalen album is not available as a streaming album. (Streaming counts heavily towards the charts)
Below are the chart results of Melodifestivalen and Eurovision hits in the Swedish top 60 since 2002, when the 32 song MF was introduced.
In a sudden change, 2010 saw only a few entries released on cdsingle, and it showed decline in the number of MF hits.
Since a few years streaming is the main factor in the Swedish charts so Eurovision hits chart without being released on cdsingle. Some only chart one or two weeks just after the contest.
* 2014: The official charts in Sweden have gone a bit crap, with Spotify and other steamers as a much too infuential source. This list is still the 'official chart' but we'll feature the digilistan as well.
The Digilistan is now the main (digital) sales based Swedish chart.
Changes in 2015: The MF has only 28 entries and the official charts have gone up to a top 100.
Changes in 2016: The method for the official Swedish charts has changed again, now it is almost the same as the digilistan.

MF In the charts
So Melodifestivalen is big business and it makes Lotta Svenska Kronor, and a large part of the often recordbreaking televoting revenue always goes to charity, åååååh....There is a huge decline in the success of the MF though, ever since they are trying to create it as a Spotify playlist sales/streams of the official album are way down. From being the #1 best selling album every year to finishing 14th in 2018 and 43rd in 2019. Down to # 96 in 2021 and not even in the top 100 in 2022.
