FINLAND 2011 - Paradise Oskar - Da da dam

[Mark-ESC14]

I find it hard to rate this song. I think its ok, but his pronunciation of English is kind of annoying :S

I like this song, BUT: It does not remind me of Dice, although it does sounds a lot like Lena's "Push Forward". And I think that if the Germans go with that song we will have two very similar ballads this year. Don't get me wrong, I mean similar in "my ears", I am not a musician, it's only an impression I have.
Cute song though. 6

It's good but nothing special i think.

Like Cyprus & Belgium last year, Finland will be happy 50% of the vote is from juries

 

[MyHeartIsYours]

Omg this is so beautiful!! I really love it!! His accent is very unusual which is a great plus point! 10 points and possibly 12 in the future!

Give me my Kuunkuiskaajat back!

Totally agree! I want Kuunkuiskaajat back too! They were my favourites last year. So sad that they didn`t qualify

Etno works in Eurovision, but only etno which is similar to that of many countries (or which many Western countries enjoy, such as Mediterranean and Turkish/Arabian etno). Finnish etno is pretty much limited to Finland and parts of Northern Sweden.

The Finnish song last year actually sounded very Russian to me in reference to the music. The song clearly appealed to the audience (result-wise) it just didn't make a dent on the juries.

Apparently, it made 6th in the televote. Surprising, in my opinion, since it was so quirky.

It`s normal the song to sound "russian" since the finnish folklore and the russian folklore are kinda similar. Also they showed finnish karelian folk music (which today is a part of the Russian federation)

I don't know why, but his voice really irritates me! I listened this song a few times today and tried to find something good in it, something that attracted me to the song, but nothing!
I'm completely indifferent to the song!
And the lyrics is somehow all the childish, as it was written by a 12 year old boy!

Finland was my fave ESC nation! I adore Kuunkuiskajat, Waldo's People, Lordi, Hanna, Tarasbetoni, even Sonja Lumme from '85 (Elakoom elama - the best Finnish song ever)! And this is the first time in last 6 years that Finland is not in my top 10!

1 point
belgium already tried the guitar thing, so i was left quite bored.

 

[Fayt]

Sounds like he tryin to do a Tom Dice this year. 4 pts from me.. its still okay, wouldnt surprise me if he goes to the final

 

[Peppi]

lol.. what a shame Tom Dice was last year. Otherwise our song would sound and look so fresh and new two man&guitar combination is too much for the esc fans. Just like we had 2 rock songs and people are "please Finland don't always send metal songs"

 

[CiprianZisu]

its true though peppi
lol

 

[martin]

i love it i hope europe will send this to final 12 points from norway and the best to now

Good luck finland

I Hope norway give you 12 points in the semi

 

[MyHeartIsYours]

I dont think it's like Tom Dice's song, this is quirky and I hope it does really well!

 

[r3gg13]

this song is a bit odd, the guy's voice isn't too stellar, BUT the lyrics are quirky in a good way. Actually, the lyrics is my favorite thing about this song, otherwise it's forgettable
