We asked the Swedes last -minute thoughts about how the Eurovision Song Contest will be.
The Swedish Kaj drum has not faded: Bara Bada Bastun You hear at a gymnastics class, a yard flea market and singing in the sauna in the swimming pool. The Eurovision Song Contest is strongly believed. It became very clear when Iltalehti talked to Swedes on the eve of the Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm.
For the Swedes, however, winning the Eurovision Song Contest is almost common: seven wins are behind. Sweden shares number one in the number of visa winnings with Ireland.
“Time of Comedy”
Stockholm is believed to win despite the fact that it is annoying that the representatives are not Swedish. This is the second year in a row, when Sweden is represented by another country: last year representatives came from Norway.
– It’s really boring that Kaj is not a Swedish band. They represent Swedish, so the representative should be Swedish, says Valentin.

He still believes Kaj will win.
– They win the whole garbage. However, because they are good.
Madde Keeps Kaj members charming and skilled. These features win visas, he believes.
– The Eurovision Song Contest can sometimes be terribly serious, but now there is quite a bit of comedy. As they look at previous winners, they have just been charming and skilled, such as Kaj.
Like Madonna
Finnish representative Erika Vikman Many have not seen the performance. It gets praise when we look at it with several interviewees on YouTube.
– This is Madonna Style! Really stunning stage show, estimates Josefine Fahlström.
However, between Erika and Kaj, he chooses Kaj. He lists more features that he likes in the Swedish performance.
– Everyone can get involved. Dance is fun. There are a lot of fun details in the show, like that sausage, he says.

Fahlström Jenny Ellebring agrees. He also praises Erika, but his favorite is Kaj.
– A lot happens in the performance and is not traditional.
He himself fond of Kaj’hi little by little.
– When I heard it for the first time, I was just “what the hell is this”. Now it has become better since I’ve heard it many times, Ellebring says.
Both believe in Kaj’s chances of winning.
“This kind of fun show is needed in this time of the world,” says Fahlström.
Erika has a chance of winning?
Also Jolin Lönner and Body Andersson They see Erika’s presentation at the time of the interview. The girls believe that in addition to Kaj, Erika has the opportunity to win.
“He was really cool,” Andersson says.
Lönner is on the same line.
– He seems to be a very strong personality.

Swedish media have also incense the performance of Erika Vikman and considered it a tough responsibility to Kaj.
However, Kaj has kept the top of the betting statistics. The Swedish broadcasting company SVT is already prepared for a victory: there is a preliminary meeting on Monday morning if Sweden is responsible for the organization of next year’s Eurovision Song Contest. Last visas were held in Sweden last year.
