You are wrong, her main language is not Swedish, although I'm guessing it is one of her languages at home. I don't know how she defines herself (not finlandssvensk at least, she said that in one of her vlogs), but I'm thinking she has a bilingual (Finnish/Swedish) background. Her father comes from Sweden, but she went to Finnish-speaking school in Finland which usually makes that language stronger. But the reason she has a perfect English accent is probably not thanks to Swedish, as Swedish-speakers usually have a clear accent in English, so that doesn't explain anything. (BTW, accents are not "bad English" in my world.) What might explain the pronunciation is that she lived in both the US and Britain with her family for a while AND that she also seems to have a talent and interest for languages overall. My experience is also that if you speak more than one language at home you are better prepared to adapt to other languages. Monolinguals usually have a harder time with that. She was asked in an interview once how to "get rid of a Finnish accent" and she answered: "My advice is, just go for it. Just start talking, it gives a better impression than silence. An accent doesn't bother anyone." Good advice.
+theRPGmaster Her main language is Finnish and Swedish because her grandpa was swedish... And she has so good english because she lived in the US for a long time when she was a kid
Actually SAARA and SMtown had worked together (specially with girls generation )she wrote 'You think ' for SNSD and it seems that SMentertainment bought rights of the song (you can just Google it !)
omg 3:04 - 3:06... That was just glorious movement. Amazing director you have there Saara. It's so refreshing to see a classy MV that doesn't need skin to be sensual. AMAZING
Just saw some comments... wow no, people are sleeping on this video hit. The SKILL level it takes to do what she did underwater is like unreal and hard; it's something to admire! I don't know any artist who's tried to do a completely underwater theme video (for this style of music either)... Can we not appreciate how she was still able to fuse sensuality and power in her video, WITHOUT overtly sexualizing herself? I mean to each their own, but the art direction for this was on point to me. If it's a little awkward... I feel that's part of her thing. Like the whole time I was appreciating how strong of a swimmer, how well she could breathe underwater, her ability to choreograph... like I saw a strong woman. And I feel like that's awesome. So many videos you only think of like oh there's the boobs and butts, oh there's the sex and drugs, but here it was like only good things, nothing exploitive. And I really appreciate like strangely relatable the video was; anybody can get dreamt in a pool. Sometimes music videos for pop is waaay too fantastical, over the top, or do that slow motion thing to rev up how sexy the singer is- I'm glad she didn't do any of that. Instead we got something playful, whimsical, dreamy, strong. I hope she gets more fans... At the same time, if she gets more popular, I hope she maintains her natural sensibility, because it's gold.
ajtxx my eyes don’t hurt in Chlorine nor salt water.... I’ve gotten used to it tho. But I do know how it feels tho... cause it’s not something you just get used to! It takes TIME!💋
It's so beautiful, I'm so happy that you are now making music on your own, it's so much better! Hope your future songs will be as great as, if not better than, this one. Love watching your vids, they make my week a lot better!
This is gorgeously done. Amazing song, amazing voice, amazing performance, and yup even amazing video. Don't know how people don't like the video. Gorgeous colours and movement. Keep it up Saara... looking forward to more!!!
Im just replaying this over and over again. I truuuuly love your music Sara! And i love love love every single one of your youtube videos. YOU GOT ME TO CLEAN MY CLOSET OUT!
10/10 i could watch this 1000 times the shots were really good it is really hard to shoot underwater and this was amazing! and you OMG, this vid shows you are a woman not a girl like the other video.
I would say that this is a boring music video, if if wasn't for the fact that its clearly the music that is meant to be in focus. Amazing song and voice (maybe a little too autotude-ish, maybe thats just me), and I can't wait to hear more!! Love from Denmark!! :D
I have great respect for you as I think you are extremely talented and have a huge vocal capacity, not to mention your extraordinarily beautiful voice, but Saara, I believe you were born to sing a lot harder songs. Most talented people can sing pop style but you, you were made for something bigger, for songs that truly showcase your range of vocal abilities. Much love, I wish you great success :)
Wow, everyone in the commentsection seems to be musicmanagers. I LOVE the song and the video is just fine. This is her first EP solo, geez cut her some slack, I loved it!
I can't believe no one has mentioned how awesome she was to pull this off???!!! The whole video was under the damn water! I wouldn't be able to do that at all. You're awesome girl! Great content
i just knew your channel scince a year when i was looking for korean language learning so i found you talking 20 language and i loved you ... you was funny ... after a month i think you wrote u think for snsd so i loved you more😄😄😄
Well, you got nothing. Look at the number of views, 90k only. What a hit right? I think Sara should just leave the music thing all together and get into the film industry. I mean, we know that Emilia Clarke had a stupid start, and she wasn't even ready to be an actor, and now she's the Khaleesi of all times.
No tää on todellaki enemmä sinuu ja sen kuulee ja tuntee täs biisis, oon ilonen sun puolesta ja mä toivotan sulle onnea jatkoon. Ootan mielelläni uutta biisiä sulta :)
Holy shit, I didn't click on this realising it was the same instrumental as I Just Wanna Dance by Tiffany. This is soooo good. I am a fan, this girl needs an album. She is so gorgeous and talented
Love when finnish people sing perfect english. Just hope you get more audience for your voice! x
That's because her main language is Swedish, Swedish speakers (like me) in both Finland and Sweden are generally better at English
You are wrong, her main language is not Swedish, although I'm guessing it is one of her languages at home. I don't know how she defines herself (not finlandssvensk at least, she said that in one of her vlogs), but I'm thinking she has a bilingual (Finnish/Swedish) background.

+theRPGmaster Her main language is Finnish and Swedish because her grandpa was swedish... And she has so good english because she lived in the US for a long time when she was a kid
Puu Pää I live in her town in Finland, mate
+theRPGmaster Then I'm surprised you don't know more about her. All info I have on her is from interviews with her and her own vlog.
It seems that she can speak fish as she does not drown while singing under water. WHAT A TALENT
u kno shes not rly singin
+Yochanan -_- it was a joke dude
Emmi Siikamäki en usko
mitä jos saaral ei oo mtn erikois kykyä vaa se on vaa oikeesti kala? 0-0
RONIIII!!!€€€€€€€
Everyone wondering if this is the same as "I Just Wanna Dance" SAARA actually was a co-writer to that song
You mean by Tiffany? It sound quite similar.
It's the same backtrack/instrumental :)
+Jibooty I don't know really. One korean and one english for more attention maybe?
Actually SAARA and SMtown had worked together (specially with girls generation )she wrote 'You think ' for SNSD and it seems that SMentertainment bought rights of the song (you can just Google it !)
+jessica Wu she also co-wrote lyrics for NCT U's 7th sense.
THIS SONG IS SO GOOD WHY CAN'T I FIND IT ON SPOTIFY
I think when SM entertainment bought the rights of the song they took it off streaming services
This is her best one yet. Crisp production and beautiful Mariah Carey/Ariana Grande -rnb-vibes. Wish she'd continued with this style.
I wish Saara and Tiffany(SNSD) will perform together once or a collaboration would be nice :D
they two songs sound so alike right !
They perform together with this song, so they mesh it up well on stage
chances are SM bought the song from Saara, they also bought You Think from Saara so
it would be perfect, like srsly, i love both of them so muchh 8)
omg 3:04 - 3:06... That was just glorious movement. Amazing director you have there Saara. It's so refreshing to see a classy MV that doesn't need skin to be sensual. AMAZING

edit: *dreamy in a pool
Incredibly well said! I totally agree!
The singer Aaliyah did it in an actual ocean before she past. Watch her rock the boat video.
TL;DR: It good.
YASS Saara!! So coold to finally see your own music!! Proud
The sudden urge to stream this bop
Saara you are literaly the best person in the workd
you are
1. beautiful
2. talented
3. Musical
4. funny AS FUCK
5. loving
THIS IS IMPORTANT, BECAUSE THIS IS TRUE!!
Learn to type, weeaboo disgrace
+Yolo Swaggington work* and go learn the meaning of the word weaboo fuck boy
+Sinna Sade yus ☆♢☆
nightmare ray Weeaboo* Fuckboy* Literally*
WHY IS THIS NOT ON SPOTIFY 😭😭😭😭
Finally, Saara is doing what she loves and I just hope this is a hit success cause she is just too talented to be in the shades, this must go viral
She randomly popped into my head and I just miss her!
OMFG DID YOU COMPOSE I JUST WANNA DANCE? OH MY GOD
She did!
she also composed you think from snsd and the 7th sense from ntc u
i dont think people realize how hard it is to keep your eyes open in water without goggles like it hurts okay
no it doesn't if it's clear water, the thing hurting your eyes is the chlorine added to it
ajtxx my eyes don’t hurt in Chlorine nor salt water.... I’ve gotten used to it tho. But I do know how it feels tho... cause it’s not something you just get used to! It takes TIME!💋
It depends on the type of water. Pool water (with chlorine) and saltwater from the ocean obviously do
When the beat drop, I knew that's I Just Wanna Dance!!
SAARA is so talented!! And the video is so beautiful!!
IM SO PROUD OF YOU FOR CHOOSING YOUR OWN PATH AND NOT LETTING A RECORD LABEL CONTROL YOU
this is and superpowers is my favorite songs from her i wish they’d put it back on spotify or put it on soundcloud atleast 😭
Get it on streaming ♥️
still one of my favorites
Omg yes! Finally! I've been waiting for this so long. The video is really well made and so impressive. 🙌💕
I'm glad I contacted YRC, the video was blocked in Canada for a very long time. Thank you for making it available. :)
If Ariana Grande sung this it would of been a #1 hit. The industry is so unfair.
Sara this is genius. I cant compare this to Ur cool. Such a simple and beautiful video, and your voice is on point. Keep going girl
I beg you to put this back on spotify I can't live without it anymore
Please
it's incredible the amount of talent that one human being can possess. I am delighted by you Saara. ❤️💕
I WANT KARAOKE VERSION OF THIS!!
BEEN WAITING FOR FOUR YEARS , SOME BODY PLEASE!!
2nd version of "I just wanna dance" love it. SAARA made both songs perfect
Saara wrote the song for Tiffany
at first i didn't really like it, but now it's really growing on me and i LOVE IT!! I have it on repeat :P
I felt the same at the beginning but now I'm really into California and this one
Incredible,she can be everyone,this women is so intense in whatever she does.god
It's so beautiful, I'm so happy that you are now making music on your own, it's so much better! Hope your future songs will be as great as, if not better than, this one.
Love watching your vids, they make my week a lot better!
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! I LOVE IT ALREADY 💗💗💗💗
Still listening in 2021. ❤️
Love this song so much, should deffo be on Spotify!!
This is gorgeously done. Amazing song, amazing voice, amazing performance, and yup even amazing video. Don't know how people don't like the video. Gorgeous colours and movement. Keep it up Saara... looking forward to more!!!
why isnt this song available on spotify anymore?? I love this song sooo much 😍😍😍
Omg i love this. I'm so proud of you baby. ❤️
Im just replaying this over and over again. I truuuuly love your music Sara! And i love love love every single one of your youtube videos. YOU GOT ME TO CLEAN MY CLOSET OUT!
Okay, I'm addicted to this now. :D
proud to be below 1M views club , as I'm confident that this video will reach 1M views in no time !
i've been waiting for this since i exited the womb
Wow this video is so original to me. Man, there should be more views!
Tuli semmoset Janet Jackson 90-luvulla -vibat tästä että! Ihana biisi
She is the most adorkable water fairy I have ever seen 😆🙈💙
This works, I don't care what those besserwissers think they know.
How can she NOT be famous?! She's soooo talented!!
This is such a catchy, feel-good song. And I really appreciate the artistry that went into doing the video underwater.
finally a song where she's proud of and didn't get pushed by capitol records. Love the song ❤
La rola mas increible que he escuchado en toda mi vida...
Hasta ahorita...
Felicidades Saara no te rindas jamas.
I love this song !
I keep coming back to this BOP
Honestly i think this song is so good, it's a matter of opinion. Your journey, your style!
Miss Saara. Time has passed and this song is still fucking IT
The whole time i was thinking about how hard and exhausting it must've been to shoot this video. Love the song tho! ♡
10/10 i could watch this 1000 times the shots were really good it is really hard to shoot underwater and this was amazing! and you OMG, this vid shows you are a woman not a girl like the other video.
So gorgeous omg
Damn I'm addicted to this song. Amazing job!
Its exactly the same like korean song I just wanna dance by Tiffany 😱😱😱😱 Omg
yeah cause she writes songs that sometimes SM picks up, she wrote You think for SNSD too.
It really is so similar :O i know she writes songs for sm but it's still weird :/
also Drip Drop of Taemin and The 7th Sense of NCT U
OMG THAT IS SO TRUE
who cares i love both :D saara and my fanyfany :3
This is really good 😇 Now its stuck in my head thx 😄😱😘
@Saara This is probs my favorite one of your songs. I listen to it SO much!!
THIS SONG IS VERY UNDERATED
I would say that this is a boring music video, if if wasn't for the fact that its clearly the music that is meant to be in focus. Amazing song and voice (maybe a little too autotude-ish, maybe thats just me), and I can't wait to hear more!! Love from Denmark!! :D
I have great respect for you as I think you are extremely talented and have a huge vocal capacity, not to mention your extraordinarily beautiful voice, but Saara, I believe you were born to sing a lot harder songs. Most talented people can sing pop style but you, you were made for something bigger, for songs that truly showcase your range of vocal abilities. Much love, I wish you great success :)
This is really good . More people need to see this !
i love this !!! her voice is amazing and the song is great !!
I've been holding my breathe throughout the video XD Nice song by the way 😄😄😘😘
Anyone else having difficulty breathing while watching this? Nice video and I bet it was fun to film it.
So underrated! This is such a bop!
I Just Wanna Dance (?)
+Nekfenouil Yes 💓
It doesn't sound similar, I'm pretty sure it's the same. Perhaps she wrote the original version. She's written kpop songs before
+Evelynn Drew Yes, I know, both songd are cool.
she actually co-wrote I just wanna dance
Yes! I love both songs
2k18 and this is my jam.
Love this song! Kiss from Poland
How this isn't massive is beyond me
seconds in and I'm already in love
I love your last EP, California is just ultimate Summer night, chill jam. All 3 songs are hit worthy materials:)
i was dancing to this song this whole time and not knowing it is SAARA and BOOM mind blown
Wow, you are the best song writer. I love all your song. 😍
I’m guessing this song won’t be released on iTunes. I hoped it would be available by now 🤦♂️ This is still one of her best songs to date !
Why do yall say that yal dont like dis vid ? She made it and its sooo much better than ur cool she slays GO SAARA ❤️❤️
OOOOOMMMMMGGGGG THIS IS AMAZING! THE SONG SOUNDS REALLY GOOOOD ! I WANT MORE!!! SAARA , I LOOOVE YOUR SONGS!!!

Wow, everyone in the commentsection seems to be musicmanagers. I LOVE the song and the video is just fine. This is her first EP solo, geez cut her some slack, I loved it!
Still jamming to this in 2020
Im in love with this song.
OMG this song doesnt stop playing in my head! no regrets! 😍😍
DAAAYYUUM. Really good song Saara :3
I can't believe no one has mentioned how awesome she was to pull this off???!!! The whole video was under the damn water! I wouldn't be able to do that at all. You're awesome girl! Great content
i just knew your channel scince a year when i was looking for korean language learning so i found you talking 20 language and i loved you ... you was funny ... after a month i think you wrote u think for snsd so i loved you more😄😄😄
The whole time I was waiting for the music video for this song to come out I was sooooooooo excited and I counted down the days lol.
Well, you got nothing. Look at the number of views, 90k only. What a hit right? I think Sara should just leave the music thing all together and get into the film industry. I mean, we know that Emilia Clarke had a stupid start, and she wasn't even ready to be an actor, and now she's the Khaleesi of all times.
No tää on todellaki enemmä sinuu ja sen kuulee ja tuntee täs biisis, oon ilonen sun puolesta ja mä toivotan sulle onnea jatkoon. Ootan mielelläni uutta biisiä sulta :)
I want Tiffany and Saara to collaborate!! 😻❤ it would be so awesome! ❤
