On Saturday night’s Så Mycket Bättre (the first episode of series 7), the assembled cast all had a go presenting their covers of the songs of Swedish music legend Tommy Nilsson. Jill Johnson picked the trump card – his most popular and well known song ‘Öppna Din Dörr’. Though instead of a straight cover, she performed an English language version of the track. Her emotional delivery of a the stark ballad was QUITE the stunner. AND it struck a real chord with viewers. It’s been number 1 on Spotify Sweden since its release on Saturday, and in that time it’s already gone on to clock up over 600,000 streams. Listen to the song below, and check out all of the other covers here.
