The silly claim might be true this spring, writes Mari Pudas, a journalist at the Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna. “Is Finland going to win the Eurovision Song Contest again?”, “are we going to win the Eurovision Song Contest again?”, “ohhhojja every year it’s the same thing, we’re always going to win, even if we don’t even make it to the final”. There are some comments about social media and real life related to Eurovision. These comments are said in a mocking sense, especially to those for whom wisdom means more than usual. It’s a way to push down the enthusiasm of another. For some reason, there is a strong belief among Finns that we would win the fives every year or that the media would be glowing with victory.
