Well it has happened before that fan-favourites have failed miserably in ESC. That might as well happen for us this year. One can never know how the common European person will vote during the night, I'm sure that he/she will have different criterias when voting than ESC-fans. After all Europe is more than esctoday.com.
Songwise I'm still not that excited about our entry, but I'll try to be supportive anyway. It's been a while since we have been ranked that high by bookmakers and fans (to my big surprise!). All in all the 00's have been rather poor from our side of the table. We've been forgotten and overlooked year in, year out the recent many years, so I'm more than happy that we finally seem to have a candidate for a top-position in Oslo that may be able to achieve more than just qualification.
