FINLAND 2011 - Paradise Oskar - Da da dam

[Quent91]

He's a copycat, trying to steal my soul
Oh yeah, Oh yeah,...

What is this Finland?? Sorry but I can't give more than 1 point!
Give me my Kuunkuiskaajat back!

I completely agree with you. I miss Kuunkuiskaajat. They were so sweet, and their song was also nice. But this time, Finland did a wrong choice. I still can't believe....

PS: Saara was my favourite..

8 points. Not bad at all, very nice ballad...

Uhu you are right. But still it looks like a copy cat:

* It's a boy, who performs alone on stage with only a guitar
* His song is in the same style
* His outfit looks like Tom Dice
* Even his name sounds like 'Dice' > Paradise

So definitely inspired by Belgium las year.

I don't think he has been copying anything. First of all, the name comes from a children's book by Astrid Lindgren and has absolutely nothing to do with Tom Dice. He's also not that into Eurovision in the first place. He has said that he doesn't like the usual Eurovision songs and that's why he decided to send the song (which he wrote) to the contest. I don't think he even remember Tom Dice when he wrote the song. And performing alone on stage with a guitar simply suits the song. I can't really imagine it any other way.

Sorry too boring for me and the voice isn't good.. IMO it doesn't matter if it's similar to Tom Dice or not, because I didn't care for Tom either.

2pts because well, it's not exactly giving me a headache.

 

[Steffan]

Boriiiiing ... and his voice kinda bugs me...
5...

A very symphatic song and guy. I like it - but his voice isn´t the best, so this could be a problem at the end.

Believe what you want to believe.

8 - He is so cute and the song is nice too.

A very poor attempt at doing a Tom Dice and it just doesn't work for me, his voice irritates me slightly too but I dunno why, 0

This year's poor man's Tom Dice? The lyrics are kinda weird and childish at times. Tom Dice had a good song, Paradise Oskar has a pretty bland song. But the juries might be able to overlook the lyrics. I say it'll make the final, but it won't be anywhere near as successfull as Tom Dice was n 2010 (2nd place for the juries!).

 

[chrisportelli]

it may well be a "Tom Dice" impersonation, but I found it quite nice and cute

 

[bashers]

Its a little too 'nice' and 'ordinary'. Im afraid its got NO chance!

 

[Interrail]

Lyrics r...hm, cute..maybe...but all together isn't anything special, it lacks something.
Very empty:?

 

[sapsan]

Wow!!! Thank you Finland for this beautiful song. It's a new particle of my gold music collection
Be sure I'm with you this year.

 

[Kryptonite]

I love this song, but I don't think it'll make a good result in Düsseldorf...

Anyways, I give it 10 points!

 

[Milos-BC]

Instead of choosing Cardiant or Stalla we get this cheap copy of "Me And My Guitar" :? One of the worst entries selected so far for me.

So, 0 points

 

[Tristran]

Hm, I kind of like it, a 6 from me.

 

[Isabella]

He is definitely not good as Tom and "Me any my guitar" (one of my fave entries last year). But if he improves his performance he could pass the semi. Lyrics are also nice and he looks so cute and innocent
For now 5 points

 

[Canuck]

über pleasant song.
