[Mainshow]

As a non-Finn (hello, I'm French, that's written on the left) listening to a lot of Finnish music:

1. THIS
2. IS
3. HUGE ! (excepted Lxandra, but the three others, like whaaaaaaaaaaaat?)

I only know Lxandra

Apparently SUPER short UMK-teaser (6 songs) ... all you get is that most of them are uptempo-songs ...

- Vereinigte Staaten (USA)
- He/She is international artist
- His/Her song has been end credits of movie

Speculations: Lxandra (Alexandra Lehti)

Any chance it's going to be ADAM LAMBERT?

He's from the US and about to release a new album (his last one flopped).

His single "Time For Miracles" is part of the film credits of "2012".

He's got a very special relation to Finland, e.g. his former long-term boyfriend is from Finland and he even got arrested in Finland after a fight at a gay bar.

What kind of „hint“ is that? In every competition there is one who is the oldest!

As for the returner and/ or the iconic one: I still pray for Erika with a banger!

Well actuallly translation goes to most experienced person.

which isn‘t a really hint either, is it? Or
how does that help to find out who it will be?

Speculations: Lxandra (Alexandra Lehti)

Yeah at this point I think this is confirmed to be Lxandra, since they posted a picture from the UMK backroom and the ballad related hint picture matches their style perfectly too.

It might not be by itself, but when you have guesses for everything it helps a lot in fact. For example: If I guess Robin for #2 and Bess #3, this means one of them has to be wrong because in fact, despite Robin is younger, he has a longer career/more experience than Bess. So I need to reconsider the other later. And If I am completely confident about someone for the #2, I already can rule out options that has started their career later than the person in #2.

Btw I'm sure neither of them are in, just using it as an example.

Enough hints UMK, give us the freaking artists

I don't think that there is going to be any foreign national artist, except Finns.

Three hints on fifth UMK 2023 finalist: (I am not sure, if my translations are right).

- Ramble music (Pämppäysmusaa)
- Bend many things (Taipuu moneen)
- Labour Day won't end (Vabu ei lobu, which means Vappu ei lopu)

 

[heke1988]

Three hints on sixth UMK 2023 finalist:

- The sky strikes down fire (Taivas lyö tulta)
- Multitalentary going (Monilahjakasta menoa)
- Has made history (On tehnyt historiaa)

This must be a band. First hint refers to Teräsbetoni, because they have a song called "Taivas lyö tulta", but I don't think it is them. It might be Poets of the Fall, because they have een speculated to be one of UMK finalists.

 

[heke1988]

Three hints on seventh UMK 203 finalist:

- Name doesn't tell a whole truth (Nimi ei kerro koko totuutta)
- That good from Finland. (Sitä hyvää Suomesta)
- To the marketplace (Torille)

This also must be a band. Perhaps Poets of the Fall.
