May. 22nd, 2008 11:15 pmWohoo! Sweden in the final!
Perelli did a great job tonight. Even Malin was impressed.
ETA: Oddly enough, all Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Iceland) are in the finale this year. That's extremely rare. In fact, I don't think that has happened since they started the semi finales.
Also, I heard today that the EBU deliberately split up groups of countries that usually vote for each other in the different semi finales. Like they put Cyprus in one and Greece in one, and they put two of the Nordic countries in one and three in the other one. (As you know, you can only vote for the semi finale in which your own country participates.)
I think this was a smart move.
