I think Kurt Nilsen had 3 advantages over the other idols
1. He sang last. This mite not be a huge advantage, but it's still a slight advantage
2. He was called a Hobbit. I think this comment was a major factor.
3. His song choice. I think his song choice was the best out of all the idol winners. But the reason why i think this is an advantage is because the idols have no say in their song choice. What they do is submit 3 songs of their own choice, and the Producer of the show, Simon Fuller chooses the song for them, and i think Guy submitted "When Doves Cry', "Climb Every Mountain" and "What a Wonderful World", but the producer chose Guy's least popular song for the show
Anyway thats just my 2 cents
