I think you are all exaggerating about the vocals, they were fine. The chorus sounds identical to the studio version

I hope that's not the case, but yea the live version isn't eurovision ready, they need to improve both Lauri's vocals and the staging in general.
I gave it a
, btw, it's a "in the middle of the road" for me.

Another year pf missing opportunities for good songs in Finnish. I was rooting for BESS before the show, but admittedly, their performance was dissapointing.
The Rasmus might do well in Turin, they weren't bad live at all, as mamy feared. I'm hopping for another staging and a revamp of the song.
for now.

ok, so now they've got some time to polish the performance because as ridiculous as it might sound when it comes to such an experienced artist like Lauri, he does need to train a lot before they step on the eurovision stage.
this is a whole lot to work on and the staging could be different as well, because the animation on the back... well it looks out of place, a dark and serious (because the animated girl doesn't make it look serious) staging would work a lot better with the song.
anyway, good for, Cyan Kicks might have been be a slightly better choice but "might" is a key word here
for now. I've never really been a big fan of them, but Jezebel sounds indeniably like The Rasmus so that's a great thing to see the band staying true to their style. Let's see how they gonna elevate the performance in May

If we have learnt before, Finns don't do revamps to their ESC songs.

Not my favourite from the selection but it's not terrible either, I'd give it a 6.
A from me. I just don't like the song it's very mediocre and it's executed badly. Someone like Lauri should know how to use his voice better. Period. If he hasn't improved in all those years then why should he for Eurovision? And the staging wasn't good either.
Don't think this will do well, could borderline qualify but wouldn't be surprised if they completely flop. I have Cascada flashbacks. Name recognition is not enough guys, they also flopped due to a bad performance.

Only familar with this band by name, didn't even know what they sounded like until now, so i have no relation to them at all. I find this song just weird, a mashup of too many things with nothing strong to tie it together. Don't see this scoring all that well, final might just be possible but with a bunch of similar pop-rock entries this year, it's likely not to.

I have mixed feelings about this. The Rasmus were my top choice going into the show, but the live performance left much to be desired. That can be fixed before Eurovision, but actually has to be fixed, and I did vote for the most complete packages tonight (Cyan Kicks and Olivera). Still, the song is good, and I'll gladly cheer for Finland in May - it's just that they'll have to do a rather un-Finnish thing and make sure every second and every camera angle of the perfomance is perfect.

Didn't see the show, but saw the headline here. Well, sorry Italy, but I have a new number 1
