"Fångad av en stormvind" (literally translated as "Captured by a Stormwind") is a 1991 single by Swedish pop singer Carola which was the Swedish entry to the Eurovision Song Contest 1991. It won the Contest in Rome with the smallest margin of victory since 1969.
At the singles charts, it peaked at #3 in Sweden and #6 in Norway. On April 28, 1991 the song reached the first place at the Swedish hitlist Svensktoppen.
The song was performed in Swedish and likens the singer's love for her paramour to the effects of a stormwind. The English language version of the song was called "Captured by a Love Storm".
The song was succeeded as winner in 1992 by Linda Martin representing Ireland with Why Me?.
