No-one was willing to host for the final week, so I have ended up doing it again, actually had longer to submit a song than normal as submissions were open until Tuesday evening!

Votes welcome though!
Ah, yeah was my own fault. I went through a very busy stage so wasn't checking... as said if I get a chance I 'll put in some votes

WOW at Saara's homecoming VT! Absolutely huge. It's being shown on Finnish TV as well.

I don't like the nationalistic undertones Nicole is suggesting with her comments.

Saara must win! <3

I've had it in for her ever since 'We're not in France, honey! Why you sing in French?'

That was a full on rolleyes moment.

Saara into the Final 2!!!

Lets hope she can actually pull out a win this time. I don't think I could cope if she got another 2nd place.

Surely now it has to be Saara's time?

3rd in Got Talent, 2nd in The Voice, 2nd x 2 in the NF. The poor lass needs a win!

Wouldn't bet on it. Matt will suit a bit of Ed Dullran. Not sure what Saara can do with that to be honest.

Hope I'm wrong, though! Don't want to get my hopes up.

Betting odds are looking healthy for Saara.

This all feels like a bit of a dream..

If she's doing Bjork, then it's back to finishing 2nd again for Saara.

Cet Air La is the only one that doesn't put me to sleep in Switzerland so that's my pick to win (it'll never make the final, though).

Oh I've just read the small print about there being "a brilliant expert panel"...why do the BBC refuse to let us form our own opinions on the songs? The only time an "expert panel" has ever added anything to an NF was gobshite-gate. Drop the panel and just have 50/50 voting like every single other country in Europe does.
Oh no. Is it Jedward and Christer again?

Oh no I didn't even realise she was that age, but then 73 isn't even that old by today's standards.

Fancy being outlived by the Russian grannies.
