Sweden was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1991 with the song "Fångad av en stormvind", written by Stephan Berg, and performed by Carola.

The Swedish participating broadcaster, Sveriges Television (SVT), selected its entry through Melodifestivalen 1991.

One of the favourites to win, Carola sang eighth on the night of the contest, following Luxembourg and preceding France.

At the close of the voting, she had received 146 points, placing joint first place with France's "C'est le dernier qui a parlé qui a raison" performed by Amina.

After the four-way tie at the 1969 contest, a tie-break system had been implemented, where a count-back on the number of top points awarded was used.
