As a Finn: This song isn't as raunchy in Finnish as it is in English. The original lyrics are more humorous and there are puns. Sadly the English language kills some of it because the only translation available is the literal one. For example falling in "love" here is actually "falling into a crack" :D Erika's song is funnier and smarter than the translation. She also uses her regional Finnish dialect in this song which is adorable and is completely lost in translation. I LOVE IT, I will absolutely vote for her in UMK. I LOVER HER.
The Erika Vikman story was SO funyy
You are so good...wellcome to Finland
I feel nerdy when I already know the Erika story from your podcast hehe but i'd even enjoy to listen to this iconic moment for a 3rd time 😁thanks for your amazing service in the national final season, entertainment is saved 💖
You understood the message of the song perfectly!!!! ❤❤❤ love from Finland
You look superb today. Based on the music videos, I am very much rooting for Erika Vikman to do a killer live performance so we get to send her to the ESC. The other songs are very radio friendly, but Erika's song uses the given 3 minutes the best, it's very unique, and is gonna look epic on stage, if done right. I hope you have a blast at UMK. I know the show will be amazing, because YLE always delivers.
Welcome to Finland!
Rewatching this while waiting eagerly for UMK tonight! Hope you have a great time here! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 lets gooo!
Finland loves MAXXX RAINBOW😊❤❤❤😊
Entertaining and professional UMKreactions -delivery!
Your reactions are my yearly treat! I'm hoping you never stop making these <3
“Made of” is my fav. Thanks for the great video.
I feel a bit relieved that I'm not the only who feels more resentment, even a little bit of anger, instead of the feelings I'm supposed to feel while listening to Viivi's song 😅😂 You were actually able put my feelings about every song into words and I felt so seen and understood. I love your vibes and energy! PS. That moment with Erika in the elevator, slayyyy
What I really like about Neea River is that she's an independent artist. The fact that she's pulling this off without any huge record company supporting her - respect! ❤ I recommend listening to her song "All the way" too 🥰
Haha! Won't miss you at UMK then!! Can't wait!😁 Viivi's song has some aspects of the brutality of growing old. In the lyrics one person passing first is brought up, as well as the day when one might lose memories due to dementia. I don't know how well those come through on the translation. The song is more hopeful about spending the future together through thick and thin, but I don't see it as a super happy song.
GIRLL UR REACTIONS ARE THE BESTT the energy & everythingg and lets not forget the looks
Finland come back in the game to win Eurovision song contest this year
Looove to listen your reaction❤❤❤
