Idol 2005 was the second season of the Swedish version of Idol. This season the jury visited other areas of Sweden including: Stockholm, Göteborg, Malmö, Piteå and Sundsvall.

24 contestants appeared to the public in four groups of six contestants and the two contestants with the highest phone and SMS votes in each group became finalists. The judges also held a Wildcard episode in which two contestants advanced to the finals based on viewer votes and one contestant based on the jury's choice; Agnes Carlsson.

The finalists of Idol 2005 also recorded a CD of show performances as did the first season of Idol 2004. Idol 2005 - My Own Idol was also a highly successful CD earning double platinum accreditation in Sweden.
