~~~ Lyrics ~~~
Rankka viikko ja paljon pitkii päiviä takan,
Mielenkiintona piña colada ja rata,
Ilta on vielä nuori ja aikaa kumota,
Tää jäinen ulkokuori on aika tuhota
Pidän kaksin käsin kiinni juomista niinku
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, ei
En mieti huomista ku tartun tuopista niinku,
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, ei
Haluun olla sekasin ja vapaa huolista niinku
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, ei
Ja mä jatkan kunnes en enää pysy tuolissa niinku
Muutama piña colada on jo takana,
Silti mul on vielä naamataulu vakava, yeah yeah ye ye yeh
Ilta on vielä nuori ja aikaa kumota,
Tää jäinen ulkokuori on aika tuhota,
Parketti kutsuu mua ku en oo enää lukossa,
Niinku cha cha cha mä oon tulossa
Pidän kaksin käsin kiinni juomista niinku,
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, ei
En mieti huomista ku tartun tuopista niinku,
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, ei
Haluun olla sekasin ja vapaa huolista niinku,
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, ei
Ja mä jatkan kunnes en enää pysy tuolissa niinku vou,
Nyt lähden tanssimaan niinku cha cha cha cha enkä pelkääkään tätä maailmaa,
Niinku cha cha cha kun mä kaadan päälleni samppanjaa,
Cha cha cha toinen silmä jo karsastaa, ja puhe sammaltaa ku tää toinen puoli must vallan saa,
Cha cha cha en oo arkena tää mies laisinkaan, en oo mut tänään oon se mies, tänään oon se mies
Nyt lähden tanssimaan niinku cha cha cha, enkä pelkääkään tätä maailmaa,
Niinku cha cha cha, kun mä kaadan päälleni samppanjaa,
Niinku cha cha cha
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha aa-aah
Niinku cha cha cha
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha
Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha

it's so sweet of käärijä to allow the eurovision semi finals into his concert
😂
Your comment wins! Just like I hope Käärijä does.💚
It’s the best comment 😂🔥
👌🤣
12 points from Liverpool UK 💚🖤
Sorry, Loreen, but Käärijä is the winner. What a performance! Really energetic. Cha Cha Cha. 12 points from Ukraine go to Finland
This year, Loreen can really wrap up 🎉
Finland thanks you🇫🇮😜
Are you okay there? We Finland hope all good in Ukraine.
Tbh Loreen dissappoint me... It wasnt on lvl as CHA CHA CHA🎉🎉🎉
Well, I hopeYou will be right! In fact, "Cha-cha-cha" is my favourite.
Finland deserved that win..😭
It’s been almost a month, but I keep coming back to this song for my daily dosage of endorphins 💚
Same
It's been almost a year and I'm doing the same thing. Still feeling bittersweet 💔
🇫🇮 Käärijä - Cha cha cha:
✅️ Iconic singer
✅️ Banger song
✅️ Native language
✅ Piña colada
In our house we also give extra points for a key change, but yep, those first three categories - Käärijä absolutley bosses it.
@@martypines9704
✅ It's crazy.
✅ It's party.
✅ Häärijä
Плагиат Little Big😑
@@queen_of_pelmen никакого плагиата, просто в похожем стиле выступают
Let's be honest, Loreen is so good but Eurovision is so much better when something different wins. Kaarija has something new and different, he has to win at all costs.
Sweden is over the top ... Finland 🇫🇮 is Unique
Sweden is commercial typical no risk song. I love Euphoria, but she had to stick with that win. Finland is original with a good message.
Ruotsi on paska
Let's be honest, Loreen brought a bland copy of Euphoria
@@screamingseal1137 Yeah, let's hope that bland copy of Euphoria won't win the jury votes, and thus Eurovision!
Käärijä is definitely the true winner! The crowd going crazy and chanting his name and song almost each time Sweden got its points.
European inhabitants were crystal clear: this is the real winner of Eurovision 2023
I was in the arena, and let me tell you, the sound of the crowd cheering doesn't do it justice to the volume of HYPE that this song spread around the arena. Absolutely incredible performance with spectacular energy!!
Yes it was absolutely INSANE. Hannah Waddingham was doing the robot to it 😂
What other songs were hyped in crowd?
@@diodaon4898 Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Croatia.
@@jess6064 and Serbia, particularly when the GAME OVER part came up and everyone screamed "Game over, bitch!" 🤣🤣
@@jess6064im not surprised, those were all heard pretty loudly on tv too
The crowd was singing so loud! Absolutely crazy! Go Finland 🇫🇮
YESS, he is perfect
The song is catchy. Now he's my favorite to win ❤
No, that came from the Playback
@@bennfl4346 actually the crowd was singing really loud, same when he was announced as a finalist.
@@bennfl4346 nope, in the upcoming few hours someone will upload a video from the crowd, you are going to hear to craziness there
Winner of Eurovision 2024 🎉 because I still come hear to listen it more than ESC songs of this year 😂🎉 lol
you and I are the reason it stays in top 20 every month
Such a perfect Eurovision song . The crowd went crazy he made this years Eurovision a party. Clearly he won people’s hearts. Jury votes should be cancelled
Without juries, Spain would have been last and Georgia didn't qualified. Juries are necessary and that's a fact
@@hmg10gamingi feel like public votes should be more important
@@Hiljaa_ I don't agree, just look what happened with Ukraine on 2022. Part of the public doesn't know how to recognize masterpieces like Slomo. And this year, Echo didn't qualified. Juries are needed
@@hmg10gaming eurovisions whole thing is "united by music" so it'd make sense for public votes to matter a lot
@@Hiljaa_ On the last 13 editions, only 4 times the winner of the televoting has not been the winner of Eurovision
That's not even 33%
Televoting is already important, juries are needed to control it
Jesus, how can anyone not love this man?!
He's crazy. He's party. He's also downright sexy.
Because there's a Tractor
I know right! Even my mom loved him right away 😂
@@Doug.Dimmadome TRACTOARA
@@TheMCzorro Mammaaa, Koupila Tractora
IT'S CRAZY, IT'S PARTY, IT'S WINNER! 🎉
Uppa Copy-Pasta Style
This is still the perfect eurovision performance!!!
still the one and only winner of eurovision 2023
im still salty he didn't win
I love how when everyone says "Thank you, thank you" very emotionally, Käärijä just says "It's crazy, it's party" in a deep voice with a serious face 😂 Legend!
He's one of a kind this year
That line never fails to crack me up 🤣👌 Love him!
I first thought he was talking in Finnish but now I understood
We all love him in Suomi
@@-ojwbe-8819 it is his slogan 🤣
Käärijä has changed my view of Eurovision. I used to think that musically best performance should win. He is not the best singer and the song is not something I would normally listen to, but it has some kind of energy that makes people go crazy in a good way. You can feel the energy deep inside, and you can't resist it. KÄÄRIJÄ FOR THE WIN!
EXACTLY
Käärijä indeed makes you realize that music is not about optimized singing voice or the best fitting genre. It's about music uniting people and bringing them together around the "fire" like it has since the beginning of music itself. Music is primitive, unlike the optimized pitch-perfect performances. Käärijä takes it back to the roots in some odd way and people love it!
Yes vocals are a little shaky, but it doesn’t matter. This is an extraordinary year in terms of variety.
Like Lasha Tumbai ❤️❤️❤️
Hell yeah!
The public was shouting "Cha Cha Cha" on stage. Everyone is supporting you in the comments. Juries giving voice to the same person was the same injustice that was once done to Manga. You narrowly lost, but you won our hearts Käärijä. Our winner is still you 🇫🇮❤️
Finland fans are coping so hard. Boohoo, Juries voted on their favourites? So unfair!!!! You might aswell have called it unfair because so many people voted for Finland!
Manga, I remember them! Still play We Could Be The Same!
@@kylorensleftballsack6594 It's outdoing Loreen in Sweden on the playlists! The jury was just dead wrong on this one.
I’m still in shock that Lena won over Manga lmao. Dark times. I loved both them and Mor ve Ötesi 2 years prior. ❤
@@PoHuovi Sweden still won and you Finland fans are coping hard
This is easily the most European thing I've ever seen and I'm here for it.
Yea trash like Europe imagination in the UK 😊
This will become one of the most iconic Eurovision songs ever.
I dont speak a word of finnish, but i am absolutely addicted to this song and been playing it on repeat ever since it went live. 12 points from the uk i hope❤
You and me both. I just pressed replay for the 10th time lmao
Many thanks 🇫🇮💚
This is a perfect performance. Flawless. He was ROBBED
I guess he is my favourite performer of Eurovision like ever.
A simple thank you to Finland for giving us the opportunity to have this song and this artist in Eurovision’s history. ✨
My friend was at this semi final and he can confirm that the audience was intensely loud for the cha cha part 🤣 I hope this wins!
I was there and the reaction was phenomenal. You could feel the excitement sparking in the air from the opening notes. And of course the ‘niinku Cha Cha Cha’ was deafening. Amazing experience
@@deadzoo you mean Phenomen Phenomen Phenomenal!
vote please
@@panda_ber only special about that song is the dance part😂😂 nothing else
Thank you! I love wgeni see someone other countries People like käärijä ❤🎉im from finland🇫🇮
Came back for my daily Cha Cha Cha... 💚💚💚
The Best.
nothing but respect for MY winner of Eurovision 2023, what an amazing performance
absolutely, totally floored. this staging and performance exceeded all my expectations, and the crowd singing along was the cherry on top. from a swede, this is a serious contender for the win, best of luck to you finland 🫶🏻
Tack så mycket! 💚
Just saw him in Dublin!! Amazing so nice and funny, hope he comes back here!! ❤❤
No offence to Loreen but she shouldn't have won, this should be public vote only and Finland would have rightfully walked it.
Yeah, it's not the first time when jury sucks. Somebody should do something with this. More and more People don't want to watch eurovision for this reason.
Its easy to sing its the plus and the minus of the song.
I love the conspiracy that Sweden won only so that they can host the next Eurovision in Sweden during ABBA's anniversary. It just fits so perfectly when the Jury did Käärijä so dirty.
@@joanking7270 You are joking right. Loreen's song was way better than this.
@@isaacfaith9369 Top conspiracy tbf
The way the audience sang cha cha cha 🔥🔥🔥❤️🇫🇮 love from Serbia 🇷🇸 I hope you win❤
It's the first time I actually feel like voting in Eurovision.
yes do it please❤️
Just do it....
sameeee
this was the first time ever i voted💪🏻💪🏻
best decision you've made x
He is real winner. Loreen was win beacause of jury. This is now in Serbia very popular.
💚LOVE OF FINLAND💚
We have only one job on Saturday and it is to make this man the winner of Eurovision. He has to win. Absolutely has to win.
If only it was televote only in the Final!! But alas no.
I'm OBSESSED. the rhythm, the lyrics in Finnish, the performance... this might be my favorite song in all of eurovision's history. I hope he wins and I'll be voting for him for sure. love from Italy 🇮🇹🇫🇮
Kiitos for your support ❤ Grazie from Finland!
Thank you! I love Käärijä, but I have also loved Marco Mengoni since I saw him in ESC in 2013! Good luck in the final! 🇫🇮🇮🇹
Molto Grazie, I love Italian Eurovision every year as a Finn, while I always think the Finnidh songs themselves are a bit crazy and weird like this one xd
People's choice, People's choice!
Best song ever.
I can't thank you enough Finland for sending Kaarija, this is one of the best songs this year. Greetings from Spain
I totally agree with you. He is my winner 🥇🥇
Finland thanks
You are most welcome ❤
Another spaniard in love with this one
Thank for Spanish love from Finland!💚🇪🇸🇫🇮💚
I have never voted in Eurovision before, but I'm going to make an exception and vote for the first time on Saturday. Well done Finland and Cha Cha Cha!
Me too. They deserve this

I have never expected to love a song so much in the Eurovision!!!!
FINLAND TO WIN THE GRAND FINAL!!!!
The crowd was amazing!
The real winner loved by audience
Love how he looks so happy at 0:59 And he deserves it for being the winner of semi final 1 😊
Käärijä will forever be a legendary artist! A singer who combined various styles into a great song, a singer who convinced Finns that they should not be afraid to send songs in Finnish! Songs like these are always worth watching the Eurosong. Good luck Finland 🇫🇮!!!
Many thanks. The wrapper is a Rap singer and still young but good 💚😜🇫🇮
Yeah I love that it’s in Finnish. We just gotta get Norway to send songs in Norwegian now too.
@@MissCaraMint And my country, I'm talking to you Sweden
OMG HE SLAYED! 12 points from Poland!😌
Rel mamy ten sam gust
Najlepszy w tym roku imo
Głosujmy na niego!
Polska wszyscy glosujemy na Cha Cha Cha
Thank you 🇫🇮💚
THE REAL WINNER
Justice for Finland!!!!!
Friendship ended with Sweden, now Finland is my best friend
I never vote during Eurovision but you can be sure as hell I WILL BE VOTING FOR THIS because this song Cha Cha Cha'd my brain out of my body. Goooooo from Lithuania!!
Quoting Käärijä and Bojan from Slovenia: "We have one friendship herre" 😁
THANK YOU❤
It´s not just the song. 🤔
It´s also his energy, personality, and the way he performs, that makes this so fun and awesome to watch. ☺👏
Oh, and we should not forget about his dancers either, they really stick out as well. 😉
I love Käärijä! 🥰
Agree, he's got so much energy it's intriguing to watch him just as much as listening to the song
Uppa Copy-Pasta Style
PLEASE VOTE ❤
This was basically the final boss of semi final 1
REAL WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The crowd says everything
Finland receives the best and a huge pop
Let's Go Finland
12 points from Belgium
But you sing this song very well, too!! 😍
@@LadyBeastCovers Thank you 🤩 Would love to sing it with you 🤩
im from belgium too and this song deserves the least of points what a bad song
@@Lxrs. You know, If you don't like the song, It's fine but did you hear the crowd last night ?
Best pop for Finland
You Can't say the song is bad
Futur winner is here
@@benjaminvandijck8016 the beat is good but the lyrics and the vocals aren’t good in my opinion
Absolutely amazing Finland... And the crowd shouting along is breathtaking.
I watch what Happen saturday? I Seen Many likes this Video More than Loreen Tattoo video
@@mikkoekstrom8678 considering the fact that Finland is 13th in the running order and Sweden was put 9th, I think Käärijä has won Semi 1. And Croatia and Israel highly likely finished 2nd and 3rd. But lets see how the jury vote will affect the final results.
This will ALWAYS be the winner of eurovision 2023! The one that EBU decided should win should not have even qualified. It only won because of a certain anniversary. Finland the real victor with the people.
For me You are the winner 🏆🤩
It's impossible not to smile during this performance. That's why i'm gonna vote for Finland this year. Much love from Poland ❤️
❤
Me too/ja też ❤
❤
He has to win. Would be my first time ever voting in Eurovision, just to make this win. Go Finland! My spanish vote goes to you!
Kiitos 🫶🏻💚 Thank you
Gracias 🇫🇮
Last time I voted was when I was a kid from my moms phone, I am voting this year for Finland, he has to fucking win, this is madnesssssssss
2:04 the scream in the background is so me
The real winner
as an estonian....dear finnish neighbours...why...why did you hide this gold from us for soooo long. Def voting this year
This so catchy 😂 definitely voting for Finland...much love from land of ŠĆ
Epäilemättä yksi TOdellinen voittaja! / Zonder twijfel de enige ECHTE winnaar / without a doubt the REAL winner!!!
True winner...Greetings from Croatia..
Ladies and gentlemen, *the winner.* 💚🇫🇮🔜
Käärijä brings 3 minutes of unselfish happiness to this grim world.Cha cha cha is iconic and it brings people and nations together!
Correct. The Croatian song does the opposite. It divides Europe even more.
@@koeniginvonsaba1 No, I do not think the Croatian song divides anyone. It is lovely
@@koeniginvonsaba1 Russia is not Europe
@@dienivaca2473 Learn geography 😉
And what about Israel?
@@lama8106 Just Geography is worth getting for you. Russia is located mostly in Asia, less (up to the Ural Mountains) - in Europe. This means that it is in Asia, because most of it is there. Same for Türkiye. As for Israel, as far as I know it is not a member of the EBU, an associated country. Just like AustraliaAs for Israel, as far as I know it is not a member of the EBU, an associated country. Just like AustraliaAs far as Israel is concerned, as far as I know it is not a member of the EBU, an associated country. Just like Australia.
My winner!
OUR REAL WINNER 🫶🏻🇫🇮💚
The thing that separates this song from the rest is that it inherently involves EVERYONE! The song is not the same without a crowd, and the crowd is part of the song. It's a holistic experience, something unlike much of music. Almost everyone can immediately hop in and chant along, enhancing the total experience and bringing out something much, much grander than just the performer singing alone.
Touché 🎯💚
Well said! 🤘
That's a very long and pretentious way of saying "I like that it's easy to sing along to"
Yeah it has the nice aspect of being in finnish and I always prefer it when countries sing in their own language but it also has the cha cha cha which is easy to sing along with even if you don't speak the language.
Agree😊
This is actually one of the best eurovision songs ever in my opinion.
Go Käärijä! 🇫🇮💪
Pour les enfants oui peut-être
@@jelenaz.779 And for everyone 💚🎉🇫🇮
I was there! It was an amazing performance and the audience was much louder than you could hear on the TV!
when you watch the grand final version too much, you come back here xD love this one too
Can I add the dancers make this performance so much better the evil salsa face expressions they’re 10/10 love love love
Evil salsa face is the best way I've seen them described. They did bring the performance to a whole new level.
i thought i was the only one loving it
This is definitely one of the only Eurovision performances I can remember where the backing dancers were this much fun to watch. The energy is incredible.
I love Finland, but don't know how they managed to find four people that well tanned there
I love the dancers! I love how they get out of the crate like YES! FREEDOM! WHO'S READY TO PARTY?
the energy was INSANE i was shaking and kicking my feet and screaming and-
Maybe they didnt win the contest but they are winners of the peoples hearts
The real winner of 2023! :)
Never heard the crowd singing the chorus louder than the performer in ESC. Its really catchy earworm. Europe will be dancing to this song summer 2023 what ever the result will be. Lycka till Kaarija!
The same happened last year during Moldova's performance...but the juries were clueless as usual.
He doesn't actually sing the cha cha cha part
Soldi from Mahmood?
You know that’s not a crowd but the effect 😂
@@billpoolio1338 they are referring to parts like at 1:46 where you can clearly hear the crowd yelling/singing along
Wow the crowd was so loud for him! It really was crazy and a party🇫🇮🎉 12 points to Finland❤️
It was a good crowd tonight! They really showed everyone Love ❤
Love you finland❤❤❤❤
The next generation Will ask what happend in eurovision 2023 and peple Will Say cha cha cha...
i dont think the next generation will ask about past eurovisions, def not 2023
Someone said here in the comments that Cha Cha Cha really hits the ”united by music” slogan. I really underline that! Cha cha cha has united at least here in Finland people, enterprises, authorities etc. in a way I have never ever seen before! Not even Lordi! Whatever happens on Saturday, I’ll remember this entry and the hype around it forever!
That’s cool! Good luck!
Wow! He is more popular than Lordi? Wow! Even though I'm a long time fan of Robin Packalen my favourite from your national final was Keira. I really couldn't get behind Cha Cha Cha from the first time from the audio recording. But soon after that, I started loving more and more! Now that is a cool artist. When you go from "No..." to "YES!"
HARD ROCK HALLELUJAAAH
I remember when Lordi won! Love their songs tbh and I'm not a huge fun of this song but so far this was the best entrance and hope they will win!
12 points from Ukraine ❤. Love you Kaarija
I can really imagine Ukrainian heroes blasting this as they drive the orcs out of your land with the German big cats. :D
CHA CHA CHAAA motherfucker!
Slava Ukraini.
You have won the PEOPLES vote ❤️
Cha cha cha 🎉💚🎉💚🎉💚
I'm in love with everything...him, the song, the happyness, the lights, the choreo, the joy of the crowd, the DANCERS ARE AMAZING.
This song is unreal.. singing in his own language, a combination of metal and Eurovisionpop, absolutely roaring crowd, incredible performance, inclusive song (easy to sing along), a super lovable and charming singer and an insane amount of energy. Finland hit the jackpot! This song has been on repeat ever since I saw it live. Käärijä has me hooked!
Go Winland!
come on people, nobody dare think on saturday 'oh I'm sure lots of people are voting for him so I don't need to too' let's make this happen!
ALL 20 votes I have will go to Finland
This!!!!!
@@Fenksta Same!! I am recruiting my friends to vote too, they love it and I will make sure they won't forget to vote in the final :D.
Thank you, everyone! I cannot vote because I live in Finland 😅😅 rooting for my adopted country to win 🇫🇮 Käärijä making us proud. Thanks for the support 😊❤️
YES❤
Finland is best!🇫🇮
He is my winner of eurosong 2023, the jury voted dirty
Even my parents who doesn't speak English or Finnish, sang along Cha Cha cha 😂 This song unites everyone.
💚 so true 💚
😂😂 so nice. The words are pretty easily prounounced. The lyrics are well thought to suit for an international audience, not just for us Finns.
Uppa Copy-Pasta Style
@@kentaron1176 wrong
lol true, my parents who are in late 50's now, said this song was their favourite this year!
Obviously after that leaked rehearsal performance he got a lot of doubt which reflected also in the odds, but his attitude on the stage last night showed everything. The crowd going crazy during the whole thing was definitely a plus to this. I think Finland has done everything to promote it in the past months, the so-me work, the staging and all, and as a super adorable and devoted artist Käärijä deserves the best! Suomi voittoon! I will vote for you from China this Saturday 😘😘
This guy needs first place for real
its crazy, its party
I m IN LOVE with Finland this year! What an amazing performer.😭❤ You have ALL my votes this year! Love from Norway! 🇧🇻❤️🇫🇮
