The Finns are batshit crazy as always ! And I LOVE IT❤ They're going ALL IN !!!!! MY DEFINITIVE 12 POINTS ❤🇫🇮 Love from Norway ❤🇧🇻

Cheers!! I'm so excited for Käärijä and I expect a phenomenal performance!

@DaneBramage ROCKS It wil be EPIC ! 🤩🎶❤️🇫🇮

Used to be Norwegian, but tomorrow I'll be Finnish.... or maybe not... can't vote for your own country. Ok.,I'll be Norwegian, but my 12 points goes to Finland! It's a wonderful song!❤

I think tomorrow we're all Finnish! Although, Alessandra has a solid chance as well. I see both of them making the top 3.

I love Käärijä's song and I hope it wins the Eurovision Song Contest this year. I have to commend this review of yours. This is one of the best I've seen and I've seen a lot of these. Thank you! 👑

I do also, it is my favorite I have seen so far. Thank you so much!! I have no problems expressing my excitement on video!!

Actually I also think he will win. I have this feeling from the moment I heard this song for the first time. Finland is in my list to visit some day . 😅 This song is special 😅🎉

@Sandra's Channel if he can perform as well during the show as he did during this video, then yes. It's won!

@DaneBramage ROCKS They are on rehearsals right now and the new performance is even CRAZIER, he will win for sure

@Guillermo Awesome!! I can not wait to see this.

He is the 💚sweetheart💚 of the ESC 2023. I hope he wins!

I hope he does as well!!

His performance is nothing but top notch! Add to that those dancers who go from formal to crazy to infantile, and the simple but incredibly effective staging - well, the only thing that is left is genius and fun with a side of pure madness...

It was my favorite so far. I hope he can deliver that live when the finals kick off! Loved it

@DaneBramage ROCKS Well, they managed it in the national finals, and the video was great, too. Thus, they seem to have an abundance of creativity and craziness that should be enough for even more than Liverpool 😁

@Toinen Osoite Agreed

You got it!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉Käärijä rules so well! New former artist from Finland! Here you are!😂😂😂

I personally choose to see the Rankka viikko/rough week he mentions in the beginning as the last three years that have been absolutely horrible, and now we have/need/get to just forget all our troubles (for three minutes) and be mindlessly silly and happy so we can then go back to sorting out this damned world.😉 Käärijä is here to cheer us up and it doesn't even matter if he wins to be completely honest, I am SO proud of us for sending this to the ESC this year to plaster some smiles on the faces of people who need it. Thanks for a great video, much love from Finland! 😘

Yeah past few years have been bad for a lot of people. Taking it one day at a time but yes, for those 3 minutes of this song, it helps us forget! I love his attitude and I hope he does well!

Love the song, love your reaction! I hope Finland will win this year! 🇫🇮❤️👍🍹🍹

You and me both!!

The moment u start smiling - yep! 😁 He calls this genre as partymetal, and describes this song "It's crazy it's party". 💚🥳💃🕺💃 Rooting him in #ESC2023. Thank you! 🎶

😁 - I love it!! I hope it does well also, it is my favorite submission so far.

I loved this song from the moment I heard it the first time. Went down the rabbit hole of his old social media content and this guy is such a comedy genius and seems like an absolute sweetheart. He's managed to bring me so much joy that him doing well in ESC feels personal to me now. I just want my boy to succeed he deserves it 😭💚 And the song is just...incredible. The perfect kind of crazy.

This is wonderful to hear and I am glad it brings you such joy. I think this song will do amazing, and possibly win it all!

Every time I hear this I get so much energy! I just want to put on my sneakers and start to run or go dancing hahaha

Same here!! It is a great Jam! Can't wait to see the live performance.

@DaneBramage ROCKS YEP!!!

The dancers do elevate the act to a whole new level, which is fitting considering that they represent the booze. Great reaction.

Thanks so much and yes, they whole thing was perfectly executed.

The best Eurovision review video I've seen so far, neat and high quality

WOW!!! Thank you soooo much!! That song just got me going!

🇫🇮 Finland - Käärijä! ❤ 🤟🧶😊🧶👍 Cha cha champion!

It is my favorite! 🇫🇮

The U.K. hosted the Eurovision Song Contest on behalf of Ukraine in the city of Liverpool - The whole extravaganza was amazing - Watch Finland and Sweden, Italy and Israel who were just fantastic. Sadly the U.K. entry was quite weak. 180 million viewers watched worldwide - Sweden came 1st and Finland came 2nd - love your video presentation by the way and greetings from the U.K. 🇬🇧

Yeah I was following all this closely so know the story. I will be doing a finale wrap-up and will have that posted soon!

I have watched this video several times every day for the last three weeks and never get tired of it. So much energy! Love it! Go Kääräjä!

I have as well! I can't wait to see him perform it during the live shows.

Hej Sirpa! Ni måste vinna. Loreen är bra men… lite tråkig?

Greetings from Finland!! Käärijä is soooo goood! Perfect!!!

Greetings!! I'm excited for him, hope he does well.

Thank you for your reaction! 😃 Käärijä is 🔥🎯 I love him to bits!

Me too!!

Thank you for your comments, love from Finland ❤❤

You are so welcome!

Thanks for a nice review. I usually don't like rap music at all but this guy I like, his lyrics are quite amazing to listen too, just like this song too. There is a video where you can see the dancers from a distance and you see that they are actually fighting inside the ring, it's so well done.

Thank you, and yes! I have seen the official music video and I love it as well!!

@DaneBramage ROCKS I meant from this live show, it's Wiviblogs video you see from distance the whole live show and how the dancer's are fighting in the ring, worth watching.

@Piia Lindqvist It is really good! I just love watching live performances!

Thank you for your great reaction . Käärijä and Luke Black are my favorites for the ESC 2023 win The ESC is in May not April

Thanks so much!! Yeah I caught myself forgetting it was may. April is their off month. oops.

I agree, he is live way better than in his officially video. I was a little bit dissappointed after seeing the video. But every live performance got better and better. He ended up as a second.

I got the message from the video, it delivered the meaning. However, the dancers, the energy, the groove, it was all there for the live performances. No argument. He was #1 in my mind.

If it wasn't for Loreen this year I would want him winner, so so dissapointed he didn't get a better position. But now we know Käärijä❤

Yeah I was hoping he would have won. The rest of the world voted his as #1. Loreen still did amazing. She is great

LOVE THIS ❤❤❤

Thank You! Love that song!

super reaction to this amazing song ♥ I just subscribed because I want to see more Eurovision reactions.

I have a few more in my library. This is my 4th.

Great review, nicely done and let's go Käärijä this is a fun song for sure I hope it wins 😎🕺

You and me both! Thank You!!

its just our luck that when we finally have a good chance of winning they take it from us by making it impossible for anyone else to win by giving sweden so many points from the jury

Yeah, I was a bit upset by that. So we're a lot of people. I will release a wrap up video tomorrow. Just talking through the contest.

This is very similar to Electric Callboy, and I love every second of it. Also nice to have this after they were denied participation in Germany last year

Yeah I am familiar with those guys, Hope he does well!

Nice reaction. Might be a winner, can't wait what the final version of the stafe performance is.

I'm excited for the finals!

Love your happy reaction ❤😂🎉 Hope he will win! Greetings from Finland 🤗

I have watched this video more than any other, I hope he wins also.

The dancing equivalent of your best friend's karaoke performance. He knows the song and the words and the tune but he won't get up and perform until he has had a few drinks. And when he does you blows you away by how bad he sings. But what the f***! It's karaoke. The dancers are him as he thinks about performing. And in the end they are dancing his version of cha cha cha! Genius 💚💚

Thats sounds about right. It takes a few drink to get out on the dance floor. At least, for some people! I love this song!

Loved your reaction! 😁 Thank you! ☺

Thank You!!

@DaneBramage ROCKS 😉☺

Mic mac is a great song by käärijä. By the way. Al of his songs are very good. I love him❤

I'll have to check it out! Thank you.

I love ur reaction, oh Greetings from Finland Of course we love it 🥰

Thank you! Greetings and yes, of course! Plus he is AWESOME! I hope he does very well!

This exhausting week and many long days are behind There's only bar and piña colada on my mind There is some time for a few, the night is still youngish This icy shell is something I have to demolish   Holding on the drinks with both hands tied on them like a Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha No, there's no tomorrow when I grab a pint tightly like a Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha No, wanna mess my head up and free my mind of fear like a Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, no And I stay on this seat until I have to climb off it like a...   A couple piña coladas I have devoured Yet the expression I have on my face is sour Yeah yeah ye ye yeh There is some time for a few, the night is still youngish This icy shell is something I have to demolish The floor is calling me when I'm no longer so frozen Like a cha cha cha I am approachin'   Holding on the drinks with both hands tied on them like a Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha No, there's no tomorrow when I grab a pint tightly like a Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha No, wanna mess my head up and free my mind of fear like a Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha, no And I stay on this seat until I have to climb off it like a...   I head towards dance floor like a cha cha cha And this world ain't making me scared no more Like a cha cha cha when champagne all over myself I pour   Cha cha cha one eye keeps turning crossed too far And talking is so hard when this different side of me does its part Cha cha cha I don't usually go and drop my guard, not me But now I am that guy, now I am that guy   I head towards dance floor like a cha cha cha And this world ain't making me scared no more Like a cha cha cha when champagne all over myself I pour Like a cha cha cha Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha aa-aah Like a cha cha cha Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha

Yeah I have the lyrics in the video description!

7:21 Käärijä will dancerback ride to victory!

I hope so!

You cannot vote for your own country. And even mine is good, and if I could, I am still rooting for this one.

Totally root for him, I hope he does well.

Käärijä is our national pride. Although I live far from Finland now, all my votes were sent to Käärijä...

Same. He should have won.

Nice reaction! What comes to the Finnish (or any other) pronouncing, why don't you just look at Google translate and push the button to hear it.... Well, at the end "Käärijä" goes pretty well from you 🙂

Thanks!! Yeah I went to a read translation and tried to get it naturally, but this G-Translator does have good voice features. Ill check that. Thanks so much

Pronounciation of The name was pretty good👍 Thank you for nice rewiev of Käärijä,and he really does bring smile to everyones face, lets hope he wins! Greetings from Finland 😊

Oh good!! I was worried about that. I have a tendency to get names wrong! I hope it does well also, so far it is my favorite submission!

The pronounciation was terrible :D It's better to tell him the truth than let him believe he is correct.

@Jussi Well, I did my best from what I read on how to pronounce it. At least I tried to get it correct.

@DaneBramage ROCKS google translate helps with pronunciation

@Scheherasad Yeah I was checking that out! It is super helpful,. Thank You.

Loreen and käärija are both amazing ❤

The latter is amazinger :)))). Loreen was a sweetheart years back. Now she is....well somehow boring superprofessional. All respect to her, but there is no real wow effect. Sorry.

I love this years submission. I hope he does well.

@Jouni Piekkari I Agree, I prefer loreen back in 2013, her song was Heaven, But I do really hope that käärija wins 😄

Love your laugh!

Awww, well thanks!! I have people tell me that it is contagious. I'll take it!

If you want to react something Else than just Eurovision song try some Nightwish - Ghost Love Score (Wacken 2013). Finnish metal band 🤟🏻🔥 Much love to Käärijä, he is already my winner ❤

I do know Nightwish, but I have more than just EuroVision on the channel. I will cover multiple singers, bands and things of the sort!

💚💚💚💚💚

🤘🏻💕

Käärijä is actually a nickname given to him by friends as when they playing cards He won always won rolled( käärii rahat taskuun. So kääriä is a verb and käärijä "profession "

I heard about that, but I thought it meant wrapper? Either way, I love this song, his performance and I hope he crushes it.

@DaneBramage ROCKS That is the literal translation of the word, but the original meaning is "person who rolls the casino's / opposing players bills into their own pocket" in context. There is also Finnish slang for making money in general, "kääriä massia" (to wrap or roll up money), and a person who does this would be called a "massin *käärijä*", where the name Käärijä comes from.

@T-P NamiNami oh that is awesome! Thanks so much for sharing that, really good to know

Cha cha chaaa ❤🎉😅🕺🏻💥💃🔥👍🏻🇫🇮

❤🎉😅🕺🏻

In the beginning, you pretty much butchered the name. Big time! :) However, on the 2nd and the 3rd parts of the video, your pronounciation is quite ok. The "ä" is pronounced very close to the "a" in 'can'. As in "Can (you do it?)" Very open. The pronounciation goes "Kää-Ri-Yä". Remember to make it a very long "ä" in the first syllable - as if if you exclaimed "(Yes I) caaan!!" The "Ri" is as the first half of the word "rich", but with distinctly rolling 'R'. The closing "ä" is cut short. Sometimes you see that marked as "ah", where the 'h' must be silent. In a "nice to know" department: Käärijä translates as 'wrapper' - someone who wraps something in wraps. He is a rapper - with a "W"! :)

Yeah I did!! I have a reputation, LOL. So I watched a few interviews and found some great pronunciations, so hopefully, If I can cover him live in the finals, I'll have it right.

12Points from me!💚😁

Nice!

Hello sweeite, Käärijä is pronounced like, Ä is like in words Bad, sad, glad, so Bääd, Sääd, Glääd! That´s how you say a letter Ä and Käärijä.

Thanks so much for the clarification! Hope he does well and wins this year!

Thanks❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You're welcome 😊

hello, they didn't change the tempo at the end, they just lowered the intensity xD

Hi!! Well, sure! The lyrics slowed a bit, or so it seemed! Still the clear winner in my mind.

Yes you are right about wrestling , look Käärijä cha cha cha original

Yes, I have seen the original video! Loved it.

❤️

there is in the final loreen im very series and käärijä im really not serious in final. loreen win coz jugde say so. voting people win is kääriä :)

You said "kerazei" k sound was correct than you need ä witch is like a in apple just make it long and you have ää. R needs to roll. J was correct and in the end shot ä like a in apple. KÄÄ-RI-JÄ put the stress on first syllable.

Yeah I have been watching a handful of interviews and I found out how to say it, but yes at the time I was not sure! Thanks so much for the help!

Another way is write Käärijä to Finnish text to speech bot, that tell better how Finnish word to say right.

I'll do that, Thank you!

i think they need more concrete in liverpool ....

They are going to need a bigger wrestling ring!

Original version and translation https://youtu.be/rNrgQm5z07U

Yes, very familiar with this!!!

Write text "Gary ya" to english text to speech bot, if you want know how Käärijä name saying right.

Awesome. Thanks. I was looking around and found a translator and thought I had it right. Thanks for letting me know.

That what bot saying is not right, but is so almost right.

If name is Kärijä then now "Gary ya" is right, but now Käärijä must to say long to first aa or ää letters.

@Myth busters Yeah, well, American accent comes into play a bit though! Thanks for the help.

@Myth busters That is what I was reading. I was trying to get it right. As good as possible.

He stand by he's show

I'm excited to see him perform!

Madrid show something,

Could this be about alcohol addiction?

I mean, dude is all about crushing Pina Coladas! It is about him working up the "courage" to go out and dance!

He was ripped off. The fix was in for Sweden. No competition between this and guy and the Sweden performance.

Yeah, I am doing a bit of research and I'm gonna do a wrapup of everything. I had this song and 2 others, aside from Sweden, in the top three.

2006 again...?

We shall see!

you definitely butchered Käärijä pronunciation

At first yeah! I watched some interviews and have it right now!

@DaneBramage ROCKS haha yeah when you first said it i was like nope haha but then again i am finnish =D

@Row Fair and I always appreciate the feedback! Cheers!

Pleaase stop fisting the centipede...

Lol. I love the centipede! And the crab walk! 🦀

💚💚💚💚💚
