Per Allan Magnus Claesson Uggla (born June 18, 1954 in Stockholm) is a Swedish artist and composer known for his satirical lyrics. He is a member of the Swedish nobility and a descendant of several European rulers, among which John III of Sweden and Gustav Vasa. Through his mother, he also has Jewish ancestors. Povel Ramel awarded him the Karamelodiktstipendiet in 1991. In 1979, he was one of the members in Magnus Uggla Band. Magnus Uggla participated to the fourth semifinal of Melodifestivalen 2007 with the song "För kung och fosterland", competing for the opportunity to represent Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest in Helsinki, Finland. On February 24, 2007 Magnus Uggla performed his song, and received enough votes to get a chance to compete again in the Second Chance round the following Saturday, where he lost to Sonja Alden in the last voting. Earlier that same week, he had received complaints about the lyrics of the song, which contains a line that could be interpreted as degrading to Polish people, but the Swedish Chancellor of Justice decided not to try this as a violation of the hate speech act.[1]
