First when Paradise Oskar pulled out a number one for his starting position last night I was rather disappointed and thinking "ok, there go all chances to do well in the final...." as it does matter. Finland had a great spot in the semifinal in halfway and sandwiched between to so different songs from Georgia and Malta. Now, Da da dam didn't seem like an opening track for the final, it would sit in nicely somewhere else. Or would it? Maybe people voting are enchanted by it and compare the others to come to it and decide none is as good? Well, maybe that's a bit of a daydreaming but then if we think about some contest openers that went on to win the contest, songs like Ding-a-dong and Diggi-loo diggi-ley. Da da dam fits in just nicely. There's not two without the third, as they say? But then it would become rather problematic: Finland is hosting the Ice Hockey worldchampionships in Helsinki and Hartwall arena from May 4 to May 20, 2012. Would we host it in Turku and in April? :-)
