Aww @Milos-BC so sad to see you leave WV. I hope you can find the time to provide one last set of WV final votes this edition, but thanks for all the music here

 

[Milos-BC]

Thank you Gary No worries, will vote for the last time, it would be disrespectful if I didn't do so.

And then sadly, we will part ways.

At this point, I think this is the best decision for both me and the contest itself, and in the future who knows........we will see, anything is possible.

 

[Edweis]

An icon leaving
Thank you for all these years, even if you mostly stuck to the same genre, it brought diversity in WV semis. I hope to still see you in other contests

 

[Milos-BC]

I have to say that the messages I've received both in public and via PM have touched me.

Instead of withdrawing I will take a break so that I can have more time to consider or reconsider my decision. And to see which direction will be taking in case I end up staying after all. The final decision will be brought after the next edition is over (that is when this break expires as well).

Thank you all so much for all the messages that I have received in the previous days. Your support does mean a lot

 

[Seok-jin]

I just saw the news. I am glad that you will reconsider the decision to withdraw. Take the time you need and I hope you'll find the passion for this game once again. We'll be waiting for you!

 

[Gera11]

I'm happy to hear that you're thinking about a break instead of a permanent withdrawal. Take all the time you need, you'll always have a place in our community!

 

[Milos-BC]

Thank you guys, really appreciate it

 

[Milos-BC]

As the new WV is just around the corner, I wanted to use the opportunity and let everyone know that, in the end, following a small burnout, will be staying in the contest after all.

Thank you everyone for all of your wonderful messages of support, you made me reconsider everything and keep on going This small break recharged my mental capacities and now I am eagerly looking forward to the next edition

In WV 179, makes its return after a record eight consecutive absences from the competition.

I look forward to sharing some of Finland's best songs with you all.

 

[JSSArcos]

I was in Finland for some time (in WV ahah)
It's a country with an incredible music industry, interesting to see.

Good luck my friend

 

[Marcos C]

As the juror of Finland, I will mainly send songs that are sung in the Finnish language. To reflect this direction, I have created a new banner for the original post. It has the name of the country in both Finnish and English.

​

In the title of this thread, I have added an emoji of the national animal of Finland: the brown bear.

Singer-songwriter Behm makes her debut in WV with "Sata vuotta" (translation "A Hundred Years").

In WV 181, an artist who participated in WorldVision a few times will be returning after an absence of more than five years.

 

[Marcos C]

After an absence of 99 editions, Haloo Helsinki! returns to the main WorldVision stage. They represented Uusimaa four times: WV 9, WV 36, WV 73, and WV 81. In WV 181, they are representing all of Finland for the first time with "Huuda!" ("Shout!").

WV 181
Haloo Helsinki! - Huuda!

​

English translation of the chorus

Shout, shout for joy
Shout, shout for freedom
And shout, shout for happiness
And you can continue lying
Or you can know the truth

​

 

[Marcos C]

Thanks to everyone who voted for Finland during the last three editions of WV. Also, thanks to everyone who helped Finland win WV Christmas Speccial 2023 with the following song.

Haloo Helsinki! feat. Cantores Minores - Joulun kanssas jaan

It has been a pleasure to serve as the juror of Finland. In the next edition of WV, I will be the juror of Central Canada. I look forward to competing with you all in my new role.
