The Ark to Helsinki!!!!
I somehow don’t think I will be quite so excited next weekend when the UK result is announced, so I’m making the most of this good news. The Ark are one of my actual favourite bands, Swedish or otherwise, so it’s really exciting for them to be in Eurovision, even though I don’t think they’ll win. That’s because a) a rock band won last year, b) Wigwam didnt win and The Ark are a bit like them. They are better than Wigwam, but since Wigwam came before them it will just seem to other countries like a copy, even though The Ark have been around for years and this is their distinct style.
