Finland FINLAND 2025

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[theCONWEL]

yeah it's over this is winning

 

[mauve]

Well that was pure fun! Lyrics too! Wanna see this live and hopefully winning!

 

[Datura]

uff... this is trying too hard for me

 

[Leydan]

Yeah no. I absolutely hate it. It's high key cringe af and far too try hard. I'm so over these types of songs.

 

[Mainshow]

Abysmal. Utterly horrendous. A heinous crime to my ears.

 

[goncalovieira]

I love it. Can not believe I am saying this.

 

[BorisBubbles]

I'm actually impressed.

Puppy is worse than I expected in so many ways. It is absolutely unlistenable fucking brainrot.

This is getting a from me in reviews. I didn't finish it. I have no desire to, either.

 

[njdevils94]

To put it bluntly. Yeah, its over. As I suspected from the beginning OMP are winning. Erika and Goldielocks are better off holding onto their songs for 2026 and withdrawing now. They have zero chance of winning. ZERO

Its like Alekseev's chances of losing that Belarusian selection. Zero percent.

 

[HanVic123]

Literately least favorite song of the national final season. Could barely finish it.

 

[ESC94]

What the hell did I just listen to??

Sorry, but I had to stop this big piece of cr*p, the clearest in a veeery long time.

 

[Looren]

Well that was a ride, I actually quite liked it lol

 

[goncalovieira]

This kind of songs represents what is trending in Eurovision since 2021... Pop divas, folk sounds are mainly gone, guys.

Last year, I decided that I was going to judge Eurovision entries on the criterion of "do I care?" As if to punish me cosmically for making this choice, the otherwise good (from a SONG QUALITY standpoint not an experience standpoint, obviously) Eurovision 2024 was chock full of Jendrik Sigwart wannabes that I cared about a good deal. I grew to hate Europapa, I hated Rim Tim Tagi Dim, I grew to hate No Rules, I hated (Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi, and I hate the many variants that are popping up in national finals this year like a bad case of herpes*, including this one. As it turns out, there are worse things than feeling nothing. Like feeling something. And oh boy, does this make me feel something.

*Loath to say this lest some man** with a stupid haircut submits a song to an NF about a bad case of herpes complete with dancing warts--when it inevitably jumps to top 5 in the odds, just make sure I get a writing credit.
**And these songs do help me get my Gianluca on, as the one time in the last few Eurovisions that women were allowed to be irreverent, I did end up really liking that.

 

[Ringdalen]

No matter if you love the song or hate it, you gotta respect the dog and give the dog 12 points.

It´s bring your pet to work day and One Morning Left did just that.

 

[SamanthaJones69]

puppy - Awful Garbage it’s worse than the Windows95 crap from last year and I didn’t think that was possible

 

[AlekS]

Their co-author also wrote Cha Cha Cha & Espresso Machiato. That explains the degeneracy.

 

[MooseShoes]

Just a reminder that it is possible to have a dog barking in your national final song and for it not to be a steaming pile of whatever that was...

I just feel sad now.

 

[jatojo]

The best you can say about the latest entry, is that it's less poppy (!) than the others. But really, the Finns have emptied their bag of silly party songs going to Eurovision, haven't they? They need something with a bit more quality this time - and yet, none of the four songs so far have any of that. Even the ballad was lame.

 

[jatojo]

Yeah no. I absolutely hate it. It's high key cringe af and far too try hard. I'm so over these types of songs.

I agree. In 2022, I might have thought the song was refreshing. But now an entry like this is almost a cliché.

 

[Mrm]
