Eurovision favourites KAJ were ‘really nervous’ before making final

The Swedish-speaking Finnish comedy trio KAJ qualified for the Eurovision Grand Final held on Saturday in Basel, Switzerland.
The group formed over ten years ago in Finland and aims to promote Nordic sauna culture with their Swedish-language entry 'Bara Bada Bastu'.
KAJ members expressed nervousness before the final and emphasized their hope that Europeans appreciate sauna health benefits and mental wellbeing aspects.
Norrgard said he “got really nervous” during the voting, while Ahman called being seen as favourites “very, very surreal”.
Their advancement suggests Swedish Eurovision acts may succeed by exploring new styles beyond the pop solo tradition that led Sweden to seven trophies.
