Olin niin positiivisesti yllättynyt että Umk aloitettiin yhdellä viime vuoden parhaalla Umk biisillä Kuumaan Ylivoimainen. Tää oli niin eeppinen livenä. 😊❤
they have reallly been learning ever since Krista Siegfreids reminded them that bat-shit over the top can be quite popular, even if it doesnt win! They got caught by surprise in 2006 and weren't really quite ready in 2007! BUt they DID give us Verka Seduchka that year... so it was a good sign for the future!
ESC Finland 2007 was a next level show back then at the time. It was the first time when as many led screens were on stage, first time ever led screens on the stage floor. Now the 2007 show ooks old-school compared to the production nowadays. Finland is technically pretty advanced and we wanted to show that then. Don't know how we could do any better than other countries now, who are also making top tier shows. I think it's not even important to try to be better than others. Just to throw a good show on your own style. 😊😊
@@pontusya9003 no one is talking about win95man bruh, it's about how SPECTACULAR UMK is, one day when Finland gets the trophy they'll be presenting the best ESC show - main subject here!
as Benjamin and the Swedish Jury pointsgiver joked about, there is a serious if freindly rivalry with Sweden (and even Norway these days - but no one takes DR seriously, since it is clear they dont give a damn). So now that YLE has worked out most of the kinks (remember those tiny UMK finals in a small studio ~8-9 years ago?) they are #BringingTheFire
I love this too. But... They should not allow autotune or background vocals from tape. Good example is Gunilla from Mello 2024 :D She did not sound terrible but just make it really live and you can hear the difference. Benjamin came popular in Finland because he got attention with his looks on Instagram. We hame some UA-camrs/ "influencers" who do music nowadays but they are not singers. They are entertainer. But maybe our world is going to that direction
THis was a FAR far superior touch on Hoida Mut, even if it only got a small amount of actual singing, but when your host is also the winner of Strictly/Dancing w/Stars, you absolutely come up with a killer dance routine for him.
@@Honey-vc4ly nothing, but isn't it common for eurofans to watch the selection of contestants from different countries and write smth like "12 points from Greece/Latvia/Austria etc"? I personally find the Finnish pre-Eurovision show one of the greatest.
@@7lovessomemusic While she hasnt done any new music fora while that I know of, it is clear from teh past that crazy Krista would absolutely be involved in hosting some part of an ESC in Finland.
Okay I am obsessed. 😍 Can't get enough and have this on loop. Someone help me. The cinematic orchestral version of Ylivoimainen is epic! And these guys together just make sense. Plus their contrasting personal styles really complement each other. I hope they consider entering as a duo one year because they killed it in this opening.
between their mashup, and the Duet of RUOSKA between the twin crazies of Kaarija and Erika Vikman, I dont know how YLE/UMK wil ever be able to match this show - especially since it was held in the largest arena in Finland, a huge jump up from the studios and such it has been in across the last 10 years or so.
I’m sitting here on the other side of the world, stopped to eat a slice of pizza after getting groceries and watching this video. My frozen foods are melting in the bag when I can’t stop watching!
This performance was so amazing that it would be worth it to travel all the way from Poland to see only this. Kiitos Suomi 🇫🇮!!! You know how to make a perfect show!!!
those violins at the beginning, I just can't explain how i feel when i hear them. they haunt me all through the day, i find myself humming, and then i come back to watch this video again.
Tää oli ylivoimaisesti paras UMK aloitus, kaikki oli just eikä melkein! Kylmät väreet meni, ylpeänä suomalaisen musiikkiviihteen puolesta 🤩Kannatan mashupin julkaisua. 💥
Ylivoimainen, Hoida Mut y Cha Cha Cha han sido mis canciones favoritas del UMK 23. Dos de ellas estuvieron en mi top 5 de Spotify Wrapped el año pasado y la tercera en mi top 15. Estas canciones son perfectas.
Como español, envidio lo bien que tratan en el UMK a los participantes del año anterior, ojalá esto ocurriese en el Benidorm Fest. Estoy en bucle con este inicio, es increíble.
SIIS MITÄ TÄÄ OLI IHAN SIKAHIENO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Törkeen upea aloitus, hemmetin hieno show!!! Tätä ei tarvii hävetä yhtään missään konteksissa! Mello, Sanremo, Eesti Laul, who..? UMK FTW
Viime vuonna oli niin kova taso, että kenet vain heistä olisi voinut lähettää loppukisaan. Käärijä oli loistava valinta, mutta ne todella oli loistavia kaikki.
....uh not really.. stop underestimating this years performances. Benjamin was my favorite last year but his stage performance was really lacking last year. Now you can see he's definitely gained more experience
We NEED this "orchestral/gabber" remake of "Ylivoimainen" on platforms. (and if, Finnish darlings, you can add "UMG B*tch" by Krista Siegfrids, the whole world would be happier.) We, once again, believe in you Finland!
I’ve watched this four times in the past half an hour on my tv. This is the most incredible thing I have ever seen and my only wish for this whole year is that this is on Spotify
Thank you FINLAND, what a great opening and intro and well song by Kuumaa en Benjamin!! FINLAND and UMK every year never dissapointed me! KEEP GOING with this formula. FINLAND TV is SUPERB! I prefer UMK every year then Swedisch Melodifestivalen since 3 years STRAIGHT!!!! The quality of Finland UMK is superbbbbb!
-How many times you watched it?
-Yes
This? Many times. Again and again. Seriously :) Just works imo. Cheers...
Still watching! Best thing of the night
Only Finland can invite their 5th place and last place of the NF from last year and still slay
Word!
i prefer both of the songs to the song they chose this year 💀
Well, Ylivoimainen was the most played song of 2023 in Finnish radio with 20mil (huge here) streams in spotify
@@whitenacho7868 2000 of those 20M are probably from me let's be honest
Sanremo does this frequently though. Still slay 🎉
this slow duet version of ylivoimainen would have been eurovision winning material
agree
I agree. Cheers...
100% agree, this could easily get people's points and also jury
I agree ❤
Problem is that Benjamin voice is playback
This needs to be an official remake. I need this on Spotify. Our Finnish kings 👑👑
I loved these guys so much along with king Käärijä. Iam so proud to be Finn. Olen ylpeä🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮💚💚💚💚❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely! Banger! We need that mash up!

not close

This could be Eurovision 2024 opening act.
that's because it has some very similar chords as "You Only Live Twice"... that is why it triggers the BOnd association.
@@ZakhadWOW You noticed also, but I don't think it is bad at all. Cheers...
If käärija won last year and if Finland hold Eurovision this year. Yes, I could see this as an opening!
In an alternate universe it is.
just wait until Finland gets the trophy...and then just watch the best show ever presented by a host country
they have reallly been learning ever since Krista Siegfreids reminded them that bat-shit over the top can be quite popular, even if it doesnt win!

This is just perfection. It’s better than Eurovision itself
❤❤❤

better opening ceremony than this year's Eurovision, hands down
Best national selecting opening 2024 🏆🏆🏆
that intro slow tempo style with the two voices would have won eurovision 2024
I'm Ukrainian and I think these performance and song itself are fabulous. This red lighting is ✨️chef's kiss ✨️
Same 🇺🇦❤
What does this have to do with Ukraine?

The very best opening of a national final I had ever seen ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Well this was the best part of UMK. Wish we could send this number to Eurovision! SO GOOD!
Ylivoimainen certified classic 📀
agreed. What language bariier?? LOL Of course BEnjamin has shown he aint just a pretty face, with his massive slayage here.
i'm still stuck on this performance, i can't stop watching it
The day Finland has to organize Eurovision is going to be a great show, I have no doubts ❤❤❤❤
Won't be next year tho
Ufff... Erika, Bess, Blind Channel, Käärija, Kuumaa, Benjamin, etc. They have a lot of options.
They had a grand show 2007 Helsinki. You should able to watch it in You Tube.

Best european song contest after Eurovision
I cried in the arena and i cried now. The beginning is soo soo good

BEST OPENING EVER!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤
Ylivomainen was my favourite song of all preselections. Amazing
Me too, and I still listen to it nearly every day :p
The best opening number I've ever seen! Might be biased as those were my two faves that year lol

Oj, vad jag lärt mig gilla finsk musik och finska artister tack vare Käärijä! Kuumaa går på repeat här hemma 🙂
What amazing show Finland 🇫🇮
¡I hope to see Eurovision Song Contest there soon!
Kuumaa and Benjamin just goes so well together. You guys have to make this song together officially
I Love my KUUMAs very much but I don‘t understand Suomi language. Your music is giant. KUUMA 4 EVER👍🥰 Love from Germany
this should be held up FOREVER as once of the best examples of brilliant unison, mixing two different but complementary vocal timbres.
This was the most EPIC opening ever!!! Still can't believe I got to witness it live ❤❤❤
i swear they should've had that up their sleeve whenever they HOSTED eurovision.
Nah, having heard this now, I'm all for instant gratification ❤️🔥👌😄
Mestariteos. Rakkautta Skotlannista
I seem to listen to this over and over again
I think we in Finland have stole the whole Eurovision show❤
Wow two favourites from last year. Keep up the good work Finland!
Best 8 minutes of the live were the first 8 minutes of the live

KUUMA deserves the 1st place!!!!! In my heart you are on the 1st place!!!!
Best intro ever 🎉🎉🎉 Hoping to get ESC in Finland ❤
Wow there voices blend so well together!! Incredible performance 🔥🔥🔥
and of course, the salt and pepper hot boy effect worked very well ALSO. LOL

What a fantastic opener! 🥰
Damn, they got me tearing up, what a great atmosphere! 😊
Such an epic start of the show. UMK keeps delivering!
Epic epic epic way to start the show!!! They did AMAZING!! They sounded so good.

It inspired me to learn the entire CHorus. I am so massively in lust with Benjamin now I cant stand it.. THAT OUTFIT OF HIS 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely amazing performance, i love these songs ! 🩷
Well done guys , too much love from Armenia !
Suomi finland is definitely the land of superstars 🤩🤩👏👏

I've been listening to it non-stop and I just can't get enough
Tää on niin henkeäsalpaavan upea! 🤩 Itku tulee ❤ Ylivoimainen oli oma ehdoton suosikki viime vuonna joten ei tästä voikkaan kuin tykätä 🥰
