If he had been close to Loreen in Jury votes, you might have a foot to stand on, but you dont. As she was right behind him in the televote (he was dominant, but NOT a landslide), while he was only 6th or something in Jury. Guess what, NO ONE is promised when televoting that the Televote choice wil automatically win.. SO GET OVER IT ALREADY< goddamit.

      It is a middle finger to the jury, yes. To the Abba-mafia. It is also a middle finger to Sweden. It is not a coindicence that '95 happens to be the year when Finland won it's first ice hockey world championship. Against Sweden, in Sweden. And proceeded to steal the victory song (about winning the championship) that Sweden had in its arrogance and cockiness made before the tournament even started. 95 never forget, stick it to the arrogant brother.

      As a Finn I would say it's definitely the location. Here in latitudes 60 - 70 Winters are not only cold but also dark as hell making any sane person sad (the crazy ones doesn't care anymore). We need to counteract that effect with all kind of crazy fun. The crazier, the better.
      Furthermore, summers are so full of light: Even in the southernmost parts sun sets below horizon for only 3 - 4 hours near midnight and its stays close to horizon so real darkness doesn't come at all, just another dawn straight after dusk. For that sleeping is difficult and people turn even crazier.

    So Finland is finlanding again! I knew you would love this! There is a lot of Finnish mythology in the live performance. In the Finnish epos Kalevala, the world was born out of an egg (or a type of duck). Here W95M is born out of a denim egg, obviously without his magic (small) denim shorts. They descend from the sky by some divine intervention, and then the party starts! Henri is obviously the bird with denim feathers. There is so much detail in the staging. (All the other performances were incredible too, I saw them live).
    Henri was not meant to be singing live at all, as he only assisted with the demo. They could not find another singer to take over, so he agreed to go to UMK. They never expected to win! They will decide by tomorrow whether they will definitely participate, because of the controversy of a certain country being allowed to take part in ESC. They have also been subjected to really negative comments online, including on the added pressure of that political situation. They have expressed their wish that the country will be removed from ESC, as have thousands of artists across Europe. I really hope they will find the mental strength to go ahead, as this would be an amazing performance. They would probably do something a bit different, or bigger.

    Funny Side knowledge about this: Henri Piispanen (the singer) is the producer of the song and apparently didn't even really want to take part in the song. However, they failed to find someone in that short time who could reach those high notes so he had to do it. And now he has to perform in front of the whole of Europe.

    You spotted the nude-coloured underwear a bit too early (this was actually winner's encore, in the actual contest performance it wasn't quite so obvious from the start). They are trying to create an illusion that he is naked under the waist, and the running joke through the show is how the cameramen are frantically trying to block the view to his private parts. If you'll watch this again, pay attention, what different ways they are using to block the view, it's hilarious.

    It is difficult to please both the jury and the people. Käärijä won over the whole world, but the jury dropped him to second place. Loreen won the jury, but not the whole world. So how do you please the majority of everyone? hmm... There could be one rule for that: no rules.😂😉

    I grew up with the same small area than Windows 95 man and he is my friend.
    If you want to know why he is so talented, they had a group of friends with this amazing sense of humour, all of the group members were either natural comedians or simply trained their skills so much that whenever you had a chance to watch this party to play around, you couldn't stand without laughing.
    They made the whole upper secondary school so fun place to stay at.
    I remember once walking on the school hall way and I saw these guys having the competition of Summer Olympic sports of who jumps the heighest jump (it was just normal brake of 15 minutes). Whenever they failed the jump, the seriousness of the failure they had on their face and their maneuvers were just something that made you smile so much (since comedy was mixed with autheticity and authentic feelings of "small child" of not being able to make it)
    While they were holding their competition, other students where trying to study for the next exams and once in a while teachers had to ban or punish this party for their illegal competitions or what's so ever.
    I admired their sense of humour and always wanted to participate on it while I was still too distant with this group.
    I always told one of the guys that you should try to sell this humour but he wans't after money and never did it. You should invite this other guy on the broadcast, he is a pure diamond.
    Windows 95 man itself is a very warm hearted man. He really has great values.
    I'm surprised to see him now here but for sure partly definitely proud of him and for the party I watched years during my childhood. Actually the concept of Windows 95 man traces back to these days but probably that is something I should not discuss for pure respect for the artist himself.

    Before the live UMK performances another person, Sara Siipola was the favorite of the people. But her stage show was a little underwhelming and Windows95 man's performance obviously blew the others out of the water. Many people changed their vote based on the performance and that pushed W95 to win. He was also Käärijä's opener last year. I love this performance and it's just full of so much positivity and energy.

      Sara's performance was great it's own and simple way. It doesn't always need chaos on the state to be a good/great performance. I liked Käärijäs last year but it feels like reherseal, this doesn't give me that wipe. Just chaos. They've lot to do imo for vocals and performance to convince me to like this. I usually like this kind of songs so that's not a problem and I see why we Finns voted this to esc, really. Maybe this grows on me like Erika Vikmans Cicciolina - i didn't like it back then but now i like.

      Sara's song was average good, but technically not better than Windows95man and ballads needs always some wow factor or / and a voice. Windows95man is better and for our fortune, it's something funny that puts a smile on your face or makes you laugh. The world needs humour and that we don't take things or ourselves too seriously.

    As a Finnish person, I personally love the song. Many Finnish people I know don't really like it, or liked another UMK song more. But I really love it, and the stage performance, gives off the image that us Finnish people aren't those stereotypically dark and/or angry-ish people (which most of us are not), it gives off an Image that we're sometimes silly, and like to have fun with it.

There are also a lot of people in the world who just don't feel well within themselves or about something in their lives, so anything they cannot control (music, sports, politics) becomes a target for projecting their own bad feelings.

    He gets it 😂 everybody doesn't. Its not just random things happening or not purely a joke entry as you noticed probably.
    I think it missed the big eurodance hype movement that was happening with Netherlands' song followed with the Austrian song that has also eurodance vibe. Because this was released earlier as the ESC entrant, about 3-4 weeks ago and was left there in the ESC channel not popping up on the newer songs that got their hype. I feel like if this was released now it would not be so underestimated and a little forgotten in terms of this years eurodance movement. However its still near the top 5 of streamings and views of about 30 contestants that are out already and it has a solid support. It might surprise as an underdog. Surely it will need the support of televotes

    The guy in the red suit is also Finland's official voice of Paw Patrol's Chase and he also sings the Finnish Paw Patrol -theme.

    If you can't win with Käärijä you show them the musical Middle Finger. No Hit but a Pain in the ESC A** . Kudos to Finland for saying..ok bye go to hell. Shame what they did to Käärijä! Shame to ESC. They show them butts like Braveheart. No wonder why Ville Hermanni Valo would never ever go to ESC.

    It's the eagle coming down with the shorts, in the shape of birdwings, and if you listen closely too you hear many eagle screams in the song.

    Windows95man (aka Teemu Keisteri) is also a visual artist.
    His "Ukkeli" paintings are really wonderful and colorful. 👍🏻💛
