[edit] Trivia
- Snäckmark says he hasn't watched a single episode of Idol previously and thinks that the whole TV-show is against his principle as a metalhead. The reason that Snäckmark still applied for Idol was due to the fact that he had made a bet with his friends concerning it and lost.
- Due to his choice of clothing (a kilt) during the 1st round final (29th April), Jonas Snäckmark was nicknamed "Braveheart" by jury member Peter Swartling.
