After the victory in 2014 of the transsexual Conchita Wurst, the 2015 Eurovision still holds surprises! Finland will indeed be represented by the PKN group, consisting of musicians with autism and trisomy 21. They will perform the song “ I Have to Always ” that talks about the difficulty of washing and eat properly.
Selected Saturday his country by 37% of voters in the final, PKN is tipped as a favorite by some. The group, which means roughly “ Pertti Kurikka party” , is composed of four members forties: Pertti Kurikka on guitar, vocals Kari Aalto, Sami Helle on bass and Toni Välitalo to the battery. He first met in 2009 at a workshop for people with intellectual disabilities and the group they formed was an immediate success. They did a European tour and a documentary called “ The Punk Syndrome ” was produced in 2012 on their adventure.
PKN explained in the British newspaper “ The Guardian “that the group is in rebellion against society, but it does not make policy. Adding: “ we do not want people to vote for us please, we’re not that different from others – just normal guy with a mental handicap” . We wish them anyway as successful as the heavy metal band Lordi, who, wearing ghoulish outfits and masks, had surprised everyone and won Eurovision in 2006.
