Finland FINLAND 2021 - Blind Channel - Dark Side

[escYOUnited]

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side

Every psycho in the scene
Hands up and follow me saying (hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo)
Empire of the freaks, all drinks on me

Just another night in my pitch black paradise
Don't wanna cry, so I gotta get paralyzed
My body is my weapon, so I keep it loaded
'Til I'm all over the place like my head exploded
Don't waste your prayers, they can't save us
Lifestyles of the sick and dangerous

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Likе the 27 Club, headshot
We don't wanna grow up
I'm, I'm, I'm living that lifе on the dark side
Life on the dark side

Every psycho in the scene
Hands up and follow me saying (hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo)
Empire of the freaks, all drinks on me

I'm in a cave of man-made misery
Digging a grave for myself and my enemies
Of all the dark things that keep me wasted
You're the sweetest I've ever tasted

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Like the 27 Club, headshot
We don't wanna grow up
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Life on the dark side

Just another night in my pitch black paradise
Don't wanna cry so I gotta get paralyzed
Don't waste your prayers, they can't save us
Lifestyles of the sick and dangerous

Put your middle fingers up
Take a shot, throw it up and don't stop
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Like the 27 Club, headshot
We don't wanna grow up
I'm, I'm, I'm living that life on the dark side
Life on the dark side

Every psycho in the scene
Hands up and follow me saying (hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo)
Empire of the freaks, all drinks on me​

UMK 2021 winner is chosen on 75% televotes and 25% juryvotes. I take this change with pleasure!

 

[EscGeek]

This song slaps. Apparently it's a well known meme in Finland

 

[Ana Raquel]

avoid oskr at all costs

 

[heke1988]

avoid oskr at all costs

Why?

 

[Ana Raquel]

Why?

the description of the song on yle + the fact that he has james blake AND bon iver as idols is too much for me to handle. two of the artists I hate the most in music history, i don't want anything that resembles them in esc please

Dem song titles and the reveal dates, straight-up from UMK's IG. The translation are just straight up from Google Translate.:

14.1. Oskr - Lie
15.1. Teflon Brothers x Pandora - I Love You
18.1. Danny - Sinä päivänä kun kaikki rakastaa mua (The day when everyone loves me)
19.1. Laura - Play
20.1. Aksel - Hurt
21.1. Blind Channel - Dark Side
22.1. Ilta - Kelle mä soitan (Who am I calling?)

At least we got rid off song names, which are based on Darude feat Sebastian Rejman - Look Away.

Ilta:Who am I calling?
Ray Parker Jr:

 

[Mimmon]

Sorry I have to do it.....

 

[Mimmon]

Posting again....

 

[Leydan]

mmmm It's not bad. Just alright. I feel like this i've heard this 868458685485 times before and in better form also. It starts to get a bit boring towards the end as it doesn't really go anywhere. Not a terrible start, but not good either.

 

[Gera11]

Nothing special, a bit church-ish and overall a boring experience that would fit better for Aksel really.

Next time bring Robin, bitches x

 

[heke1988]

Oskr - Lie 2/5

- Not my kind of music at all
- Good voice though
- Lyrics aren't my kind of and there is nothing special about

 

[Mrm]

OSKR’s entry is really good, in studio version at least.. I like the vocal tone and color of the voice… Maybe it is a bit too American…

 

[Mimmon]

So here is my opinion:
I really love his voice,nothing special but its great start in my opinion
Will he win, I don't think so but who knows....
I am patiently waiting for Blind Channel...

 

[RainyWoods]

I really wanted to like it

Lie is just so plain and painfully ordinary though. I can't shade it any harder cause just look at his face, and 2021 is the year of love. This one is very, very much not for me anyway.

 

[mauve]

Oskr's song was definitely heard a million times before, but I still kinda like it. Not great, but good. His voice is strong. But I am waiting also for Blind Channel ...

 

[Ana Raquel]

But look at his sweet face

also @ song

abominable

 

[Sammy]

The beginning reminded me of Ryan O'Shaugnessys "Together", but that's the only part I could connect with the song. It's a nice pop song, but that's about it... No winner vibes here.
