    "It ain't no Kaarija but it's good" and "It will be a battle between Finland and Sweden" - sums the up this Eurovision final.

    loreen and kaarija rivalry is the most epic and hilarious one in history. On the one hand introvert, serious, spiritual woman and on the other hand this goofy, extrovert bubble of energy.

      Is Loreen introverted and serious? I get the impression she’s relaxed and groovy, and a bit excentric, hehe. I’ve only seen a short clip of them meeting and Käärijä flirted with her. 😂

      Let me be honest, Karrija is the introvert HERE and I sympathise with him WAAAAAAY more! The point of the song is that he, the Finnish man, opens up and kind of becomes an extrovert or at least expresses himself. This song is ABOUT being an introvert.

      I agree! And talking of ESC legends and icons ... Käärijä has said his favourite-ever ESC song was Ukraine's 2007 Verka Serduchka - "Dancing Lasha Tumbai" (which happened in Helsinki, coincidentally). That came second ... and not so many people have such fond memories of Marija Šerifović's winning song for Serbia (good though it was). For example: today's UA-cam views for the official ESC performance for Marija: 24M, vs. 45M for Verka 😊

    I absolutely love this guy. He's such a sweet, goofy dude. I bet he's great fun to hang out with. Shame he didn't check out Voyager in this video though. I've seen him hanging out with those dudes from some other clips so it seems he's enjoying meeting the other ESC people.

      France my favourite too, and I'm glad he liked it. She got the 2nd biggest ovation from the crowd there (after Finland), unfortunately it didn't translate into points. Maybe she was people's 2nd favourite and as people vote only once, they voted for their favourite (Finland). I liked Finland a lot too, but in fact there were around 10 songs I absolutely loved... good stuff this year (though terribly disappointing was the score for France, she deserved to be in the top 3).
