Now, I admit I didn't go to the Download Festival, or whatever one they played at... but when I saw it on TV, they were the least impressive band *in my opinion*.
They seemed to me, a bit behind the times, and lacking much creative substance to there music. But again, it's down to personal preference.
Then again, it's no suprise they one, since for some reason we keep entering absolute nobodies in to compete to represent our country... I'll never understand why we do that. I wouldn't be suprised if this happens with other countries *sighs*

People are all woried about the 'quality' of the Songfestival. This has been so for years, largely because the people that are worried do not seem to have good winning chances.
But no one seems to realise the bizarreness, or the absurdity of having a music competition.

Sorry, but I hate the 'rockband'. It isn't a Eurosongfestival but a Euroshowfestival. People with very good songs, who can really sing don't make any chance anymore. And I believe it will continue in the years to come. Thats pity.

Well, to be honest, I didn't particulary like the winning song either despite that I'm Finnish. In my opinion, the song Bosnia Hertzegovina(whatev, the spelling) was the best of them all. It was almost the only song with musical value.
