Finland FINLAND 2014 - Softengine - Something Better

Re: FINLAND 2014

The juries actually gave exactly the same points to Krista and Mikael Saari last year. It was the voters who really decided it.

Re: FINLAND 2014

The juries also supported "Marry me", giving it first place. Don't know about the other years.

Well, the juries gave equal amount of points to 3 entries (incl. Krista) in 2013, so only based on jury votes, she wouldn't have won (well, she would be one of three winners to be exact ).

In the 2012 final there were no juries at all it seems and also in the 2011 selection it was 100% televoting.

Re: FINLAND 2014

Jasmin or Makea for me , or Mikko or Hukka Ja Mama ...

But I'm afraid we'll end up with either Dennis Fagerström or Clarissa feat. Josh Standing

Re: FINLAND 2014

Mikko stands out for me, i hope, he's the one.

Re: FINLAND 2014

If Clarissa is chosen - that's another Cascada, about 20th place in the final.

If it's Dennis, that's another Paradise Oskar, again about 20th...

Oh boy.

Oh boy.

Maybe,but the level of the songs is not quite good,so we should look at the songs that actually can help Finland to qualify in the Final.

Wishful thinking...

What happened with last nights show? Was it just a showcase or did anyone get eliminated?

It was just a showcase, they performerd for the first time to the jury

I watched all the clips last night, and here is my top12:

1. Hanna Sky – Hope
2. Clarissa feat. Josh – Top of the World
3. Jasmin Michaela – Kertakäyttösydän
4. MAKEA – Painovoima
5. Lili Lambert – Let Me Take You There
6. Hukka ja Mama – Selja
7. Softengine – Something Better
8. Dennis Fagerström – My Little Honey Bee
9. Lauri Mikkola – Going Down
————————————————————————
10. MadCraft – Shining Bright
11. Mikko Pohjola – Sängyn reunalla
12. MIAU – God/Drug

It is going to change a lot, I think.

Re: FINLAND 2014

I'll do a top 5.

1. MIAU – God/Drug
2. Jasmin Michaela – Kertakäyttösydän
3. MadCraft – Shining Bright
4. Hanna Sky – Hope
5. Lauri Mikkola – Going Down

Worst is easily Clarissa feat. Josh – Top of the World. If Finland send that, then they can enjoy a semi-final exit.

I'm glad you like Jasmin. She's easily my favourite.

I can't make my mind up on MIAU. I listen to quite a bit of lofi garage rock and punk outside of ESC and these girls are missing something for me. The chorus is catchy but lyrically I think the song is poor.

The real live shows start 11 January. In that show 1 of the first 6 is eliminated. One week after that the same protocol with the other 6 songs. Then the 2nd chance show, then the final.

Re: FINLAND 2014

I will wait for the final versions (next Wednesday) before I will make my top list, after all these were just demo versions.

Re: FINLAND 2014

I really start to like Madcraft´s "Shining bright" - decent rock song :-)

My current favorite besides "Clarissa feat. Josh - On top of the world" and "Denis Fagerström - My Little Honey Bee"

Re: FINLAND 2014

All the studio versions now on Spotify, search for "Uuden musiikin kilpailu 2014". A lot of changes I must say.

Re: FINLAND 2014

Now that I heard Mikko Pohjola's new version I wonder if this is this year's Mikael Saari. Dennis' song sounds like a children's song now, those sounds remind me of Super Mario game or something from the 80s.
