Finland FINLAND 2016 - Sandhja - Sing It Away

[Lupus]

Re: FINLAND 2016

OK, so gone through all 18 songs once and here are my thoughts:

Overall a pretty good National Final lineup! Only dislike a few songs and have a good few I want to see at ESC this year!

LOVE

Draamaa: Simply amazing song. Agree with all the above love for this and hope it wins.
Love Is Blind: Oh my! Really sweet song and I could see it being performed amazingly well! I like songs with stories and this one tells it well.
Good Enough: More than "Good Enough" for me (hahahaha...) as the duet works well. Not my favourite, but still pretty darn good.
Don't Wake Me Up: This is my dark horse for my personal favourite. Felt vibes during this similar to those I felt in MF last year for a song which is still my favourite ever from a Eurovision NF. Not at that level yet, but could be. Watch this space...
Let Me Out: I was so unsure about this at first, but it really grew on me. Something a little different and I could see it doing well.

LIKE

Blazing Fire: Almost a love, but not quite there. Just not quite feeling it enough.
No Fear
Ready for the Show
On it Goes: Nice singer!
Sing it Away: There's something in her voice which I find offputting. Then again, I said that at first about Václav's voice last year, so who knows!
Poom Poom: Another one I like but not sure I should.

OK
Pehmeiden arvojen vaalijat
Evil Tone
Time For Boys
Thief

I just find all of these uninspiring but not painful to listen to.

NO
Shamppanjataivas
Rise Up
Liian kuuma

These are the ones I really don't enjoy and couldn't get all the way through the song without losing interest. Just not my kind of music!

WAIT she's had a solo career since 1978? This may just be a catalogue I have to check out; you know my position on folk, women usually, accomplished and talented ones, almost royal...you could say Queen but not quite...Quens yes that'll do.. and they're from another time, almost like yesterday but brought out to a greater scale...how does Yesteryear sound? [MENTION=9441]RainyWoods[/MENTION] holy goodness we're supporting the Quen of Yesteryear Pot H unite behind Eini!

All the credits for you my lord... that weakness for stars of the 70's even without knowing that fact, it's just a stigma.

You can have a look at a very expensive video clip she made, they obviously had to travel all the way to Paris to film it.

Re: FINLAND 2016

Here's a photo of me, Ashley, Robert, Rainy, and Cesar cheering for Eini. Sammy and Mrm are too busy dancing to "Draaaaamaaaaa"

EDIT: I don't know why I chose this photo. There's going to be way too much competition to be the one on the far right (spoiler alert: it's me).

You are very welcome to the Pot H

Re: FINLAND 2016

Errr... [MENTION=10140]cegs5[/MENTION], [MENTION=14007]lavieenrose[/MENTION]... Am I allowed to put "Love Is Blind" at the top too and still remain in Pot H? I may have slightly fallen in love with both the singer and the lyrics...

"You look like Jesus but you taste like sin"

btw check out his top ten on Spotify; that looks fairly Pot H to me! http://yle.fi/aihe/tapahtuma/2016/01/12/cristal-snow

Tentatively you are. He does indeed have a very hot Spotify playlist, including my WV scorewhore one of my WV entries, though not quite as hot as Eini's with its Donna Summer and ABBA. xsnooty

That's OK then! I still adore Eini and would be overjoyed to see her at Eurovision #PotH

Re: FINLAND 2016

[MENTION=14505]Lupus[/MENTION] Putting at the top a campy singer over a f@g hag? How very dare you!

It's OK

Re: FINLAND 2016

@RainyWoods

You described "Draamaa" perfectly!

It's MESMERIZING ad EINI is fantastic, she is MAGICAL! Video is truly a fascinating storyline.. I ADORE it!

I think Finland has a huge potential in Stockholm if thy pick fabulous EINI!!

DRAAMAA!!!!!!!! xsing

Queen

Re: FINLAND 2016

Ok but are you for real with Draammaa? It is so old-fashioned, so tacky and it will fail in Eurovision.
Yes it is fun to mock this cheap song during NF season but that's it.

Who really cares about winning? It's Finland not Sweden.

Re: FINLAND 2016

Eini take over. She's the clear forum favourite now.

That's why you should care
