Mikael came out of nowhere, struggled to convince the judges but conqured the hearts of the viewers and fans, especially foreign ones with his wool jumper jury performance, then changed to a smarter wear for the elimination heat and added mucisians. In the final we are about to see also dancers. Quite frankly, this blogger thinks the best performance was the first, less is more in this case. I'd rather see him on stage alone with his pianist Tuomas and that's it! In the polls and betting odds he's the one to beat Saturday night. If you think so, too, do vote in my poll ->
The Azerbaijani selection show for the represant was as long as the selection process for the five finalists. Kurt Calleja from Malta and Can Bonomo from Turkey were present with Ell/Nikki to see Sabina Babayeva to emerge as the winner after each and every finalist had done about zillion songs amongst other guests. Now the Azeri TV will shop around a suitable song for her.
