a_qWell, we didn't do so well at Eurovision - second last, business as usual. Boo :(
The media kept hammering in the point that Saara had the most professionally designed pop song & performance, her own fan base and plenty of media coverage, that she has been working tirelessly just for this all spring - so she should've gotten enough points to get, if not top ten, at least somewhere between 10th to 20th middle ground.
...And she finishes second to last (25th).
So the Swedish model of crafting the perfect pop product didn't work for us. I wonder what will happen next year, what sort of performance can we send after that one - and who even wants to go anymore? Maybe some sort of feel-good eccentric art project -type of thing? So that when we land at the bottom again, we can at least claim that we created an original art experience :D
I think I'll go listen last years Eurovision songs, I liked those way better than this years crop.
