Don't think I've ever seen Matt having to hold on to the wall during a song😄
I could see this win Eurovision to be honest.
Yeap, all the juries of experts will appreciate its artistic values and the people massive will vote for a joke in Finnish...
That's exactly what I saw after I saw it for the first time.
My wanted top 5: 🇫🇮 🇳🇴 🇸🇪 🇫🇷 🇸🇮
I don't see this getting top 4 with the juries, which it will need to do to win
@@languist I mean Sweden hasn’t even picked yet 😂
When the performance is so good you have to hold onto the wall just to survive...
I absolutely loved it and I'm so happy he won!
Finland is an absolute fire 🔥 this year 🇫🇮💚
Or maybe everyone else sucks.
No one knows.🤷
@@NC2O1O. Nope, they don't, this is just so great.
@@NC2O1O. I think this year is actually especially good. There are plenty of worthy winners this year.
Käärijä !! One thing I have noticed is that when listening and watching him everyone smiles ! What a feelgood party song.Käärijä is a mood 🥰💚
Amazing performance.This one will win Eurovision.The dancers are incredible
It took me halfway through watching to realize the dancers were wearing fake teeth. I was about to go researching how the Finnish keep their teeth so pearly 😂😂
This has to win the entire competition! Helsinki 2024 - I just can't see it going another way. Lordi were a revolution, Käärija is a revelation!
Thank you, Finland! 🇫🇮❤️
It cannot, it is not jury appeal song. Plus, you cannot get enough points against Ukraine's 400+ televote points
@@dundaetf83 This will divide jurys for sure but I do see this getting some points. And I doubt Ukraine will do that well this year. The song isn't as good, it's hard for last years winner to win again and the emotional impact of the war isn't as intense anymore. It'll be in top 10 because Ukraine always is, they do have quality entrys but it will not win.
@@sasuhiable It would have to get top 4 with the juries and close to 200 points, I am still not sure it can get that much with the juries
The comfort of some people to say paranoid things in public is really impressive...
I don’t think so but hope sooo
I was up at 4am to watch UMK & my gosh it was worth it! Just to see this! ..... never mind the Loreen stage invader confusion happening simultaneously on SVT.. this was crazier & much more fun! I loved his fake Hulk muscles & how the Cha Cha Cha dancers started out very professional then entered the "ring" and started wrestling each other!! Hilarious!! and the Maruv glitter part towards the end!! Classic! I'm lacking in severe sleep but thank you Finland! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
lacking in severe sleep? I meant severely lacking in sleep... see I cant even type anymore... I need a nap before the livestream tonight!!
Any mention of Maruv gets a thumbs up for me - Bang! Siren Song - easily in the top five of songs that for one reason or another never made it to the Contest!
Thank you for your dedication! Greetings from Finland. We did not win, but Käärijä won hearts all over the world. That's better than a mere win.
Not you leaning for the wall because of the performance, love it 😂😂
This is the song that will keep living at clubs after the contest.
for sure!!!
YES!!! The dancers are PERFECT for this performace - I hope they include them to the actual show in Liverpool. So, so excited for this!!!!
They will!! One of the dancers posted something like “next stop, Liverpool” or smth
They better!!
But Käärijäs guys want to do and make everything new and different for their next performances. We'll see then..grrrchacha
Not gonna lie, the dancers are almost half the fun of the show. Without them it falls apart
I am absolutely delighted he won. I have had this in my dreams last night and I have been singing it all morning too. I'm addicted!
I feel sorry for any entry that has to perform after this. No one will remember anything that happens after this song.
Loreen would fit there nicely 😉
Love from Finland ❤❤
Käärijä didn't get a piña colada at the after party cause they where all out 😂. I'm so happy he won. I live near Tampere so if he wins hope its gonna be ESC Tampere 2024 🎉
All piña colada cans are sold out in Finland. We have to wait next week or trust the bartender, Cha Cha Cha.
TKO! It will take Europe and the world by storm, and unless I am mistaken, will be the first Finnish language song that hits the charts in multiple countries. And, having watched a couple of interviews with Käärijä, it could not happen to a more lovely guy! A number of naysayers are suggesting that the juries will not vote for this, but I beg to differ. They most certainly will appreciate the humor and, assuming they read the lyric in their own languages and understand a bit about Finnish culture, they will really appreciate what the song is saying. This is not a joke song - it's a humorous song done seriously and very well. His performance will stun people into submission and will win the televote as easily as he won it in Finland.
I'd love this to win
This will be 2023s "Trenuletul", in terms of getting the entire arena roaring along
Oh it's gonna be so MUCH more than that!
My winner
Finland win❤️🪄
So many people, to my big surprise, don't even know cha cha cha is a dance... hence they don't understand the dancers.
What?!?! I mean everyone knows the Cha Cha Slide, right?
I understand what is cha cha cha (can even dance it!) However, I would prefer this song without dancers.
@@ESCunited No, it's true. I discussed this with people in a forum yesterday. I was thinking I'm getting old and the GenZers (or whoever didn't know the dance) lived in a parallell universe where only tweaking and no cha cha existed...
@@ESCunited That's what Sam Cooke said!
I think a lot of people wanted what we saw in the music video with the boxers/wrestlers, since they represent his demons.
Käärijä can win it all. I love everything about this. And as you said: he is so likeable. Greetings from Helsinki.
Tampere 2024 🔥😍
I honestly can see this winning ESC. So camp and just FUN
Digitalis is a medicine for people with heart problems .
The only song so far that really got my attention and I've listened dozens of times already. My number 1, no doubt on it.
My favorite reaction, as usual. Matt, we always think THE SAME. I adore this as much as you!
💙 from 🇫🇮 Cha Cha Cha 🔥💚
It's art nd creativity! 12 points and winner 🌟👍🏆
In my mind this is an Eurovision winner it will go down a storm with the audience and looks good on tv. I say it again it could win
I voted for him like crazy! Let's spread the crazyness!!!! It's crazy, It's party!🥳
I voted Cha Cha Cha even more than Dark Side - that's how bad I wanted Kaarija to win. 💚🥳🕺🍹
Eurovision needs Cha Cha Cha! Best finnish entry since 2006! 🇫🇮💣💥💚
And it wil help erase the terrible embarassment of "Aina Mun Pittaa" in 2015 as far as Finnish language song.
@@ZakhadWOW I think people mock too much Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät, because they don’t understand they are mentally disabled people’s band. And one of them, Sami, speaks fluent English, because he lived his first years in US. They play punk. I know many people, who don’t like punk, heavy metal etc. I have to admit the Europe was not ready for a band with disabled musicians. Finnish is a language just like many other languages. No better or worse than other languages.
How wonderful to see how excited you got. Me too ! I hope he wins !!
If the juries don't screw Finland they'll win esc.
I LOVE this song and the DANCERS. ❤ 🇫🇮 I take that the ring and "evil dancers" represent fight with alcohol as the lyrics are about drinking and then feeling free.
I got the same feeling when I watched it Matt. What will be interesting is comparing peoples reactions to this alongside Loreen. I enjoyed the total package with Kaarija but Loreens song left me a little cold - but most folk seem to be losing their minds over her staging. So it’ll be interesting to see how televoters respond to both performances.
Got plenty to say about that during today's Live Stream.
This is so fun song. Also there is this meaningful side of it. Greetings from Finland.
Love the dancers, the choreography, everything!
This is definitely not my cup of tea, BUT I acknowledge that it's original and "out of the box". We'll done Finland 👍
This better win Eurovision! Helsinki 2023!
Or 2024... :)
@@ap6709 Oh...yes, sorry 🙂
Winner alert 🚨
I love this song so much! The performance was also amazing!
The Nordics and Baltics really stepped it up this year.
I can feel the fun they have one stage. Its good.
The stage is a pun those pallets are called Eurolava (Euro Pallet) in finnish, but lava can also mean stage, so he is performing in Euro Stage :D
I know we probably wont win but we always have fun in Eurovision!!!
Oh, just loving the pun - also, did you notice, he "breaks the euro stage" as well in the beginning. 🤭 I can't believe I missed that until now.
Well, this aged wonderfully! It did go big. I remember watching it on Eurovision after all the generic pop songs and whatnot and just not understanding what's going on. It was a total sensory overload, in the best possible way. For some reason, I never revisited the song until this year's Eurovision, but now I have started listening to other songs of Käärijä and I must say, he's good.
Already legendary
You're SOOOOOO right!!!
Looking back now a legend was born💚💚💚💚💚💚🇫🇮🇫🇮
Visually it's like maruv met go_a
Slava Ukraini!
♥🤩😍💚
♥
i feel like jury votes for this wouldnt be that high, but televoters would LOVE it ahhah
🔥🔥🔥🤩🤩
😍🇫🇮
It will represent Finland in Eurovision .
How can the did not like the dancers. I am a big fan of this dance choreography. All what they did , made a lot of sense, if you understand what is the song about.
💪🏻🤩👋🏻❤️🇫🇮 hello from Finland ❤️💋💋💋
Could this beat Loreen? I am not sure, but I think it is possible.
I think Finland will win the televote and Sweden the juries. And I think Sweden will have a higher chance of winning it all because it is not to crazy for the non-Eurovision fans. But I hope Finland gets a higher placement in the end 😅
I'm so happy he won 😭🥰 and I love the dancers too, I just wished they were wearing another color because I'm traumatized by bright pink lmao.
❤❤❤❤❤
I love the song (I don't think it's a winner sadly, but it will get my vote from Spain at least) and I love when Matt gets super excited about a song/performance, so great video 😀
Ha ha... nice reaction. We love it aswell. Cha cha dancers? Ballroom dancers ;-)
💚💚💚💚💚
I agree too much with ur opinion

Is this chipmunked😂
Its sound so goodd
here u can find the lyrics : ua-cam.com/video/rNrgQm5z07U/v-deo.html&ab_channel=UudenMusiikinKilpailu
🤣🤣
No estoy para nada de acuerdo. Mi reacción es completamente diferente 🤣🤣🤣🤣
cza cza winer dens grece
Just give him some boxers/wrestlers and some pyro and he's won!
Btw: he is boxing against himself in a music video. Everything happens in his mind just because he feels so much stress and pressure in the beginning.
If Finland wins with Cha Cha Cha, HEL will freeze over again
Serious?
Such a song can only thrive in the protected and sterile laboratory environment of the ESC. Totally detached from reality outside.
I think you're talking about Loreen's song... Not this one.
I think this is beeing a bit overhyped by the hardcore eurovision fans. Top 15 in final yes, but no winner.
You cannot be serious??????????
I'm afraid he is.
?
Europe like double meters... some countries with similar songs and stage design ended up at the bottom of all contestants but Finland is different lol... I don't find anything special about this song... it's just all about doing a shocking show!!!
Loša pjesma, loša scenografija i kostimografija, loša recenzija...pjesma totalno nepjevna...😱😵💫👎🇭🇷🇪🇺✔️
I really dont understand the hype around Finland. It is OK, but mediocre.
Finland and Croatia are in the same genre: Catchy nonsens.
This sucks and im from Finland
A dumb “song” with no musicality at all… really?????
It's going to be a battle between Finland, Norway and Sweden. As the racing pundits would say, "We have a Scandinavian horse race.
Finland is a Nordic country, Not Scandinavian.
@@mantailuaa Stop! It is not that f important.
