URGH JURIES

(don't worry, I'm sure I'm gonna complain about the televote somewhere too )

Seriously though, not sure how "Bananas" can be objectively judged to be so good...

 

[VirginiaVision]

Someone help me vote via app I don't speak Finnish ah

 

[Daybreak]

Mika Häkkinen, Mika Häkkinen!

 

[lavieenrose]

Mika Häkkinen, Mika Häkkinen!

I fully liked this post b/c I read it as MINNA Häkkinen, the character from Veep

Lol if the televote is proportional then she will still easily win

 

[Sammy]

How on earth can Bananas be second???

 

[Zonne147]

Erika was obviously the best tonight, Aksel was pretty good too

I have seen the juries weren't particularly into "Cicciolina"

 

[hijirio]

I swear i'm boycotting Finland and never ever visiting this country if they don't send Ciccolina, but again i'm being a drama queen and said this already 10 times before k

 

[Kitakaze]

Fingers, toes and everything else crossed for a proportional televote.

I'd rather F3M than that Aksel guy but if Erika loses it will be a buzz kill.

Let's hope it is!

 

[RainyWoods]

Absolutely. She needs to win the televote by at least 18 points, I think; even just in UMK last year, the televote winner was ahead by 75 points. It's not certain but it's definitely possible.

Ohh the fact they did the votes in this way last year is now giving me great hope. I think Erika is absolutely going to slay this probably (at least you'd think considering the hype and strength of the performance vs everyone else). Never underestimate though the power of a nice boy and his nice ballad.

Oh hey, random Japanese speaking. I can understand something in the Finnish NF

Let's hope it is!

Looking over previous years it seems to pretty much always be proportional. Just hoping they haven't changed it at a super inconvenient time.

I know, I heard the Japanese language in a Eurovision national final, I was like ''Wait,what?''

I take it from some of the signals that production REALLY does not want it to be Erika so fear this will happen.

 

[DaFlo]

Wrong thread haaa

That makes two of us! Last thing I expected to hear at 5.30 am in the morning here.

 

[RainyWoods]

Gosh, I actually feel sick for the first time this NF season. Please, this can't go wrong Erika Erika Erika!

 

[lavieenrose]

Most stressful moment of Esk right now
