A MUST for any Eurovision Fan!

Käärijä is way too charming and talented not to love! Finland's entry took a while to grow on me but he is so awesome. Love the upbeat tone of all of these interviews and can't wait for Liverpool!

Worth a listen for fun tidbits and background info on the Finland, Lithuania, and Estonia entries.
