A total of 246 songs by unsigned composers were sent in to SVT by the deadline. Some of them did not comply with the rules, so it left 175 songs to go on vote.

A total of 32 entries will participate in Melodifestivalen 2010. 4 more wildcards - which will be revealed at a later date -  will join the 27 songs and the webjoker.

Sweden finished 21st in the Final of the Eurovision Song Contest this year in Moscow, Russia. The tough job was taken by Malena Ernman with her La Voix.
