Sisters Lili and Susie Päivärinta, of Finnish origin belted out perfect pop hits from mid 80's to early 90's before going separate ways. I was a fan from the beginning to the end and was all for them to win 1989 melodifestivalen with Okey! Okey! but it didn't happen (nor their second try ten years later with Show me heaven.) Their best songs - in my opinion - came only in the 90's but the 80's were their most succesful ones....
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.
