No go for “MP” in Finnish Eurovision
Written by roxeteer on January 25, 2004 to Misc.
HELSINKI - As we previously reported, Mats “MP” Persson wrote a song for the Finnish selection of Eurovision Song Contest 2004. The song did make it to the national final, but not to the European final. The winner was Jari Sillanpää with his ill-titled song “Takes 2 To Tango”.
The song contest will continue with semi-final on May 12 and final in Istanbul on May 15.

yes indeed ! anyway looking forward to the contest, the less i can say is that the most important is to participate ... the results don’t matter so far.

Thank God his song won’t participate... most of it is the worst crap of the year... his song is not in that category :)

I think “Can’t Stop Loving You” was a rather good song, at lkeast compared to what won. And Patrick is so sweet a person, he deserved to win!!! :o) Well... Too bad!
