It's a decent entry.. Not fantastic, but neither all bad

That was a particular weak selection from Finland this year and their choice goes straight into the bottom of my list. Still, it's just as well they didn't have a strong selection. They were bound to choose wrongly anyway, as they are known to do.

Mikko's song was good and could potentially do very well at ESC, but his actual performance was average and I believe the senseless black and white finally killed its chances.

I think the juries give more points to Something Better because they're afraid Sangyn Reunalla will failed to qualify like Nar Jag Blundar, and Something Better is a pretty ok song anyway i think .

But why the juries gave low points for Hope? i thought being the winner of the heat suddenly gave the song a top 3 rank

 

[LoveHate]

Not a bad song, just way too ordinary. But there wasn't really anything better to choose either.

 

[Milos-BC]

I like this one. Even though we have this kind of songs each and every year, I really like it. Great choice by and I hope to see it in the final as well So far my second favorite!

Finland will require something better to win Eurovision. Better luck next year.

But I applaud their submission to add musical variety to the contest.

 

[ayzelto]

not impressive, not bad either. I'd put it somewhere in the middle...
Let's give it a 6.

I think it's very average and boring. Doubt it will end up in my top 10.

My favorite part of the evening was Krista's opening number.

I really like it, seems like a more beefed up version of Denmark 2011. Wish he wouldn't scream at the end though...

 

[Joni]

^ yep, I don't like that screaming either.

 

[Sammy]

Seems that it may quite work, when you're in the crowd listening live to it. But if not..... doesn't really convince me. Didn't annoy me either though

 

[revallsay]

I love this song, so catchy! I hope it gets into final and gets a high score. 10 points from me.

Actually this has been stuck in my head all day. I love this now, definitely one of the best entries of either this or last year at least.

And so much better than that ding dong shite

I still hate this, but It doesn't offend me as much as Krista Siegfrids did.

 

[ParadiseES]

This ofends me much more. The "ding dong" thing was silly and soooo crappy. But at least Krista is an outstanding performer and was flawless live.

This band..... :?
