In (possibly) the most predictable final ever, the song that everyone thought would win, (Monsters), did indeed qualify for Lisbon by topping both the tele- and jury-vote.
Stretching three songs to an hour and twenty minutes of primetime TV is pushing it, but YLE packed the show with guest appearances and filler.
Monsters picked up around 40% of the televote, which somehow converted to 95 points. The full – and completely predictable – result, looks like this …
Song | Jury | Televote | Total | Psn |
Monsters | 88 | 95 | 183 | 1 |
Domino | 84 | 75 | 159 | 2 |
Queens | 68 | 70 | 138 | 3 |
Catcat from 1994 were excellent in the interval though and, in a Eurovision twist, one of the songwriters of Monsters is the son of Scott Fitzgerald! It’s a small world is Eurovision.
