Krista Siegfrids had the wedding dress and the cleavage, but in the end Mikael Saari has all the votes. Wiwi’s readers have spoken and they want to Mikael to win Saturday’s UMK final with his song “We Should Be Through”.
I am afraid that I will be disapointed tonight and Mikael won't win. I hope Finland takes the best song, cause to be honest it is the only song that has a chance to do well in ESC. Go Mikael!!
It's a gorgeous song, oozing with quality and feeling. It's the kind of song that outsiders don't normally associate with Eurovision, but will do the show a lot of credit. I wouldn't want ESC just to be a bunch of soulless, up-tempo party numbers.
Maybe I'm not particularly demanding in terms of music but I find this a very strong final! And now I’m thinking about it, I even think that this is the strongest Finnish final in years. I like all the songs. And that has never happened before in a Finnish final.
My absolute favorites are:
- Diandra – Colliding into you
- Krista Siegfrids – Marry me
- Mikael Saari – We should be through
One of these three and Finland has a worthy entry for Malmö!
I'm all for Krista or Mikael.
"We Should Be Through" is the first ever fullblown Eurovision-ballad I've rooted for, and everything about "Marry Me" is pop perfection. It's such a guilty pleasure + the performance is very entertaining.
