Analysis: This is what Erika Vikman’s victory opportunities look like after the great visa festival in Amsterdam

Absence in the spotlight of Finnish media has done good for Erika Vikman, writes Eurovision journalist Ville Vedinpää.

The situation was completely different a couple of months ago when Vikman was a huge burst after the UMK victory. Some thought his outfit was too bold and revealing.

Absence in the spotlight of Finnish media has made Vikman good. It was noticed on Saturday at the Eurovision pre -party in Amsterdam, where he clearly enjoyed the attention of the media and visa fans.

Strong stage presence and charming of people are what Vikman knows best. And that’s what Eurovision is all about a good song.

Diiva -like female artists are in the minds of visa fans, so it’s no wonder they eat her hand. The singer himself describes himself as a unkind woman and it clearly bites. Young women, in particular, admire her message about women’s sexual liberation.

The popularity among visa fans does not yet tell much about the chances of success in the Eurovision Song Contest. One should still conquer the so -called ordinary audience, which only looks at the races live on the TV stand.

Vikman said in Amsterdam that there would be changes in his appearance. The bare buttocks seen in UMK are covered. It may even be a surprising concession from a brave artist. On the other hand, it can avoid continuing and more conservative Europe’s horror.

Vikman has set the goal of ranked six in the Eurovision Song Contest. It is realistic, as Finland is currently sixth in betting.

However, one would imagine that Vikman’s shares will still improve as the actual visas get started. At least the starting position is excellent, as * ich kemme * is heard as the last paragraph of the second semi -finals. It’s a parade place to end the show.

Kaj, who represents Sweden, is still a pre -favorite to win the Eurovision Song Contest, but it is not self -evident either.

In Amsterdam, the opinion of visa fans and journalists was clear: Finland should win the Eurovision Song Contest. The competition for two Finnish artists alone in this year’s race shows what the superpower of Finland has come from.

We would definitely have a double win for the Eurovision Song Contest. Whether the winner is Finland or Sweden.
