<p><script src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js" async=""></script><span style="font-weight: 400;">Labrinth is well known for his work on <em>Euphoria</em>; his music and soundtrack became a key element to the show, creating a unique atmosphere and distinctive emotional depth necessary for the story. His work has incorporated many genres, including gospel, electronica, orchestral music, and more, reflecting both the composer&#8217;s personal style and the show&#8217;s complexity.</span> <strong><strong> </strong></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Labrinth’s score gave life to the show’s and character’s intense themes of teenage life, love, drugs, and trauma. His work on Euphoria earned him an Emmy for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics for the song ‘All For Us’. Labrinth also appeared in the show during season two, episode four, in a scene where the main character, Rue, has a hallucinatory moment in a church and he appears as a gospel singer performing his song ‘I’m Tired’, which Rue associates with her late father. </span> <strong><strong> </strong></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hans Zimmer, notably known for scoring films including <em>Inception</em>, <em>The Dark Knight</em> trilogy, <em>Interstellar, Gladiator</em>, and the most recent <em>Dune</em> movies, is joining the composition for <em>Euphoria</em>. Labrinth expressed his excitement for this collaboration on Twitter, saying &#8220;another chapter in the <em>Euphoria</em> universe! So great to join Hans, one of my heroes in film score, and bring some new magic to this new season. Love x.”. </span> <strong><strong> </strong></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sam Levinson, the show&#8217;s creator, expressed on Twitter that “it&#8217;s a true honor to be working alongside Hans. I wrote this season to the score of <em>Interstellar</em> and <em>True Romance</em>. So he&#8217;s been ingrained in the creative DNA since the beginning. I&#8217;m really proud of the work Labrinth and I have done in previous seasons and am excited for Hans to push us to new heights.” </span></p>

<p><script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Labrinth’s most well-known songs on the show include <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/10hMM5nsZQf66ldBlgWBfG" target="_blank">‘All For Us’</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/6N22FZs2ZhPBYi3b9XPajV" target="_blank">‘Still Don’t Know My Name’</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/1ZdhOMWyFR8Iv9eylMGYg2" target="_blank">‘Mount Everest’</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/6LtHYDgYHRCHoKK3snfr2w" target="_blank">‘I’m Tired’</a> with Zendaya, who plays Rue, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/6EtKlIQmGPB9SX8UjDJG5s" target="_blank">‘Formula’</a>, and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/6potEImiklXkwD9qFzpu15" target="_blank">‘Forever’</a>.  </span></p>
<p><strong><strong> </strong></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Over the years, <em>Euphoria’s</em> soundtrack has surpassed one billion streams worldwide, earned award recognition, a connection with a global audience, and a massive contribution to the show’s success, which was the second most watched show on HBO when it released back in 2019. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The show itself had a massive hiatus and delay of three years due to strikes, the creator’s vision, cast members&#8217; availability, and some not returning, as well as the unfortunate passing of one of their cast members, Angus Cloud, in 2023, who played the beloved character Fezco. There is no current release date for this third season; however, they have been in production since January.   </span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The 2023 Eurovision Song Contest grand finale took place yesterday at Liverpool, UK, where all 26 participant&#8217;s of different countries competed for the trophy and becoming the next host/hostess for next year&#8217;s Eurovision. After 4 days of the duration of the competition, Loreen from Sweden was crowned the winner for this years Eurovision with the song <em>&#8220;Tattoo&#8221;</em>. This victory marks the 7th time that Sweden has won Eurovision. The last time Sweden won, was 8 years ago in 2015 where Måns Zelmerlow won with <em>&#8220;Heroes&#8221;. </em>Sweden is now tied with Ireland for the most Eurovision victories.</p>
<p>Loreen was also crowned winner in 2012 for her song, <em>&#8220;Euphoria&#8221;</em> and was rendered the bookmakers clear favourite to win this years Eurovision. Visitors of Eurovisionworld predicted in the Eurovision Poll that Loreen was going to win. In terms of results, as Sweden has the most wins, Finland takes the cake in the most public votes.

<p>Loreen has been a rising star on the music scene, eversince her appearance on Swedish Idol 2004. For the past few years, she has gained national recognition for her hit singles, <em>&#8220;Euphoria&#8221; </em>and <em>&#8220;Statements.&#8221; </em>Her uniqueness of sound contains an elemented blend of pop, dance and electronic music, which has won her fans from all the walks of life. Her performance at the Eurovision Song Contest that truly solidified her status as a musical force to be reckoned with. From the moment she stepped onto the stage, dressed in a stunning silver and black jumpsuit, she effortlessly encourages the audience&#8217;s attention with her powerful vocals and infectious energy.</p>
<p>As she sang her song, <em>&#8220;We Got The Power&#8221;, </em>her undeniable passion and charisma shone through, electrifying the room and inspiring thousands of viewers at home to dance and sing along. The judges were equally impressed by Loreen&#8217;s performance, awarding her top marks for her vocals, creativity, and stage presence. In the end, she emerged as the clear winner with a commanding lead over the contestants.</p>
<p>The BBC Eurovision cast went to interview her to express her thoughts on being crowned the winner. She started off by <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0f82zys">saying</a>, <em>&#8220;Darling, I didn&#8217;t think I&#8217;d do it ever again,&#8221; </em>she said. <em>&#8220;But then they sent me the song and I could just feel it was a good song, and then they popped the question.</em> <em>&#8220;The answer?&#8221; </em>BBC asked, Loreen responds, <em>&#8220;Hell no&#8221;</em>. It took her team, with the inclusion of the same songwriter and producers of Euphoria four weeks to change her mind and encouraged her to go for the double gold in Liverpool.</p>
<p>Looking ahead, Loreen has big plans for her music career. She hopes to continue pushing the boundaries of pop music and experimenting with new sounds and styles that will keep her fans on their toes.</p>
