Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011
It really depends on who you ask. There still are many Eurovision fans in Finland, and YLE hasn't ever thought about retiring from Eurovision. In fact they are already planning on national competition for 2012. It's mostly about the artist that have "met fame" that consider ESC complete crap. That's why you mostly see new faces, or yesterdays big names in finnish nationals. I like it still, I couldn't bear if we would back out.
By the way Miss Merete Manninen, producer of Euroviisut said today in interview that they are aiming to make Euroviisut a bigger brand for YLE. There are changes coming to the national competition in 2012. It migh even change completely.

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011
It's great to see how much Cardiant is liked abroad. It's also my second favorite, right after Stala & So. Actually Erik Karhatsu, the vocalist of Cardiant, had some throat aches etc. before 1st semi, so his singing wasn't as good as he wanted (altough it still sounded great IMO). His voice should be clearer in the finals. They also promised to focus more on their stage show.

I don't know if it has been mentioned previously, but if "Luojani mun" is chosen as the Finnish entry, Johanna Iivanainen will take it to ESC with English lyrics under the title "Skylarks in The Breeze".

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011
Soma... singing in a silver lingerie which she wore on a body suit. Hmm, vocally she wasn't stable (esp on high notes) but in some places she was really good. If she had a better song she would became my fave. I liked her backing vocals. Worse than Cardiant and Johanna but better than the rest from the 1st semi.
Paradise Oskar - just me and my guitar
Not bad Though I would liked Tom on his place. Again I'm not a fond of a song but he fitted almost perfectly.
Jimi Constantine - Jimi WTF. I've just realized that the song was inspired by "It's My Life" ... Bon Jovi Unfortunately Jimi sounds like a karaoke singer. Stripping & money shower 
3
Milana Misic - Weak vocals during verses, the chorus saves her (but not the whole song), imo she coud sing it faster and move more intense.
Father McKenzie - The way how he stares in the camera is creepy. The song is forgettable but he didn't ruin it, also quite fitting ))) My 3rd fave tonight.
My prediction: Paradise Oscar, Milana Misic, Father McKenzie.

- Father McKenzie
- Paradise Oskar
non-qualifiers:
Jimi Constantine - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvsQJwytWjU

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011
OMG what a weak semi....
At least Jimi didn't qualify (WTF he did). But the three qualifiers are weak (who's that Tom Dice wanna be?? hmmm noo. it's not the same... if at least he could sing live....it was beyond horrible).
They'd better choose something good in the next semifinal, cause we have a boring church song, a lame rock song, a tango wanna be and these three.... Doesn't look good for Finland :|

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011
The semi is pretty weak...but had two positive surprises though! Father McKenzie was really cool, despite their hectic preformance, they really brought some good mood!
The biggest surprise is Paradise Oskar, despite the terrible cheesy lyrics, he somehow gave me something that honest and believeble! I say for now Paradise Oskar or Tango-Marko!

Re: SUOMI - Finland 2011
All three songs are nice. But I don´t know, if they would be successfull at ESC. I like the song from Paradise Oskar - it´s a sweet song. Milanas song is very special. I think it´s a song which will be loved or hated. My favorite of these three songs is from Father McKenzies one.
