FINLAND 2011 - Paradise Oskar - Da da dam

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

Finland is the land of rock music, but is also nicknamed as "the land of the 1,000 lakes". So... they have no other option : Send Stala & So, or... send one of their 1,000 lakes )

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

the songs on their NF aren`t so strong to be honest, but I hope they`ll send something in finnish. But I really doubt it.

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

I am not impressed with any of the entries to be honest. I like "Sais" and "Pamela", but I think that this other one would flop in ESC. I really have no idea what would be the best choice. The overall quality is very low.

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

Automatic Eye - Horrible. So the song matched their performance

Marko Maunuksela - this is a talent, to screw such tango song with incredibly boring performance. Marko had zero charisma tonight. Tango means passion, power. I coudn't feel it in his performance

Johanna Iivanainen - sounds like a X-mas carol. Sleepy, relaxed etc.

Jonna - the worst vocals among with the 1st band. It was too messy. That women who appeared out of nowhere and started reading poetry, Jonna made a cliche costume change, dancers had not enough space... hmmm.

Cardiant - vocally he had some problems, in the middle they sounded like a garage band on their 1st big rehearsal but the beginning and the end were cool. Overall they were better, comparing to others who weren't that good tonight So my choice would be the Cardiant, today

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

Johanna Iivanainen is the first serious contender imo. I like it!

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

Don't agree at all. My favourites were the ones who will go to the second chance, especially Automatic Eye. I so wanted them for Dusseldorf

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

I only listened to the three qualifiers but none of them really impressed me. Let's hope there's more (and better) to come

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

go Cardiant !

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

Out of the 3 who qualified, I like Marko the most, it's just sad that his backing singers sound more passionate and powerful than him. I still like it though. Cardiant is pretty decent too. I hated Johanna (I had to stop halfway through the song) and I like ballads in general. I would rather have Automatic Eye than Johanna in the final

It would have been nice to see someone dance tango on stage too!

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

Of the 3 qualifiers, I like Cardiant the most. Joanna is nice, but too sweet and boring. And Marko would have flopped in ESC in my opinion. Interesting song, but on the other hand not an ESC material imo. Let's see what the other semis will bring us.

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011

I heard now all three songs and I think it´s an interesting mix of different music styles. At the moment I like Markos song the most, because it´s an interersting song with a really good voice (also the background singers) and I like Tango-music. But I agree with MilosBC, I think this song could fail at ESC. Finland tried tango at ESC in the past and it didn´t have a chance. The song from Johanna is boring imo. And she shouldn´t wear a red dress. I think, this song won´t have any chance.
Cardiant is interesting and as we know, the Finnish people like Rockmusic. So it has a good chance to get many points in the final. The voices didn´t convinced me, but with a great show all can happen.
I´m very exciting about the next qualified songs.
