Finland FINLAND 2018 - Saara Aalto - Monsters

[Dessi]

I LOVED her back in 2016... in X Factor UK 2016....
But NOW.... she has lost her soul... it's like a whole new SAARA.... and she lost all her feelings, soul, voice and being... so very very sad....
I don't recognize her now....

My lovely SARA back in 2016 ....

I loved her for No Fear. A trillion times better than Monsters and Sing It Away from Saandhja

I don't know, we've got a pretty high standard for drama here.

Saara has uploaded a live version of Monsters in 34 languages on her YT channel. Sounds super nice!

When watching the video I just can not shake the thought of how Finnish she looks to me. I mean if there was group of women and Saara in it and I was asked to pick one of them who is from Finland I would surely pick her Maybe that`s because she is from Finland.

About the song ... Saara lifts it, because she can sing. I actually like the song itself, but only because it reminds me so much of DJ Bobo work in the past (catchy sound/beat, but pointless words). Borderline top 10 song to me personally, but I think it will stay bottom half of the final in reality.

Umm Finnish woman looking Finnish... nothing wrong about that ��

She is such a talent! Well done!

 

[Citelis]

Version with 34 languages is amazing!

 

[cegs5]

I find the 34 languages version kind of pointless... OK, she can memorise phrases in different languages, so...?
It looks and sounds a bit cringe.

 

[Citelis]

I find it amazing! Of course is not aversion to send but still is very good!

Genuinely don't understand how the current odds give Finland the 12th best odds to qualify in Semifinal 1. Could genuinely be both a televote and jury threat if juror's focus on vocals this year.

 

[nunaney]

Finland had perfect vocals last year and the jury didn't care. I think there are many songs in semi 1 that could be bigger jury favorites than Finland.

 

[Citelis]

I still believe (and hope) that Finland will qualify!

A quick message with Saara from the LEP last week

 

[Yoozek]

She's trying the hardest of them all. Each performance is a bit new version of the song. I respect her for that and want her to finish in TOP15 cause she deserves it!

 

[PeterLPZ]

I like the video of the song. But the live performance wasn´t good at all. I wish her good luck and a better performance in Lisbon. 6 points.

Maybe she thought it was fun doing?

To be honest, I didn't give my opinion on this song, but I think it's high time I do so. In fact, the entry as a whole is pretty good. However, I assume that the chorus completely turns me off with these vibes that I ain't fond of at all.

Anyway, I'm not thrilled of Saara Aalto, thus it seems quite crystal-clear that I won't cast any votes to this entry if it went on to qualify, even though I do not even believe in this outcome.
