Felicia and "My system" sailed up to a higher position on the odds lists immediately after their flawless performance in the Eurovision final and looked like they could end up in the top ten.
Worst since 2009
But shortly afterwards, Sweden received poor scores from the juries and not much better from the viewers. The final score of 51 is Sweden's worst result since Anna Bergendahl failed to advance from the semi-finals in 2010.
However, Felicia says there was nothing she could have done better.
"No, I did my best and I can't do more than that. Of course I wanted the performance to be even better, but it was simply impossible," she says.
How has the whole Eurovision experience been for you?
A strange mix. There has been too much to do but at the same time not enough. It feels like I've been in Vienna for three months and like we arrived yesterday. But you only get an experience like this once in a lifetime, so it's been great fun.
Felicia has said in interviews that she is a real winner and a bad loser.
But not in this case. I'm not angry because I didn't win. It's not fun to come in 20th place, I can say, but I would have felt the same if I had come in third place.
Too much schnitzel
The plans going forward are to rest after two exhausting weeks. In the semi-final, the rhinestones on her glasses fell off and obscured her vision; then she had voice problems and was banned from speaking, and she fainted after the rehearsal on Friday.
To top it all off, she also ended up far down in the second half of the results list in the final itself. But Felicia doesn't plan on letting a nasty loss affect her mood.
Trust me, I'm not going to go crazy or die over this. I'm going to do a summer tour, release music, and get out of this bubble I've been in.
Do you regret anything?
I may regret eating one or two schnitzels too much. Now I'm a bit tired of it. But nothing else!
