Omg I am so happy! It is a great choice! I am sure they will do well in ESC.

Right now #3 on Finnish itunes and #14 trending in Finland on youtube!

Tämä on mielestäni tämän vuoden viisuehdokkaista paras. Yksinkertainen, kaunis. Tosin olisi mielestäni voinut kasvaa vielä hieman suuremmaksi, nyt jäi ihan pikkuisen "liian pieneksi". Mutta tän vuoden ehdokkaista ehdottomasti silti paras. Moni (eilisessä UMK:n esikatselussa esim. Tuija Pe...

It is a bit funny to see that this disco from 1980s with cheesy lyrics is doing so well among fans (Verona). 1. Rasmus Rändvee - This Love (SF 2) 2. Carl-Philip - Everything But You (SF 1) 3. Janno Reim & Kosmos - Valan pisaraid (SF 1) 4. Kerli - Spirit Animal (SF 2) 5. Leemet Onno - Hurricane (...

Navi or Nuteki for me.

Great selection even though there are just demo version. Very daring. I wish more countries could have such approach rather than sending radio-friendly blandness.

Gabi Toth didn't disappoint

I wouldn't mind Lauri to be a surprise winner of UMK17.

I don't think there is even a sense to compare to other 'gloomy' entries from previous UMK are pretty different stylewise. I doesn't look (unfortunately) that Jamala's victory will be a trend next year. I'd rather say it looks more like it will be more radio-friendly songs trend based on selected so...

I feel that there is some inconsistency of their opinions. Why are they so pulled off by dirty lyrics while their ideos sexualized some of ESC participants (Sergey) and even volunteers (ESC 2015 in Vienna). And they make even in this video reference to 'seksi sais' (despite the real meaning) just be...

UNIBET

Emma 2.50
Norma John 4.50
Alva 5.50
Anni Saikku 7.50
Günther&D'sanz 9.00
My First Band 11.00
Zühlke 15.00
Club La Perse 21.00
Knucklebone Oscar&The Shangri-La Rubies 21.00
Lauri Yrjölä 31.00

I am pretty sure it will not win I'd love to though. I expect Emma or My First Band to win (the latter because of Sony affiliation, reasonable fanbase and radio-friendly song which will be enough for juries. Except fanbase it sounds very similar to Sandhja's case).

Who cares about names. It is important to have relevant producers. There is Wooden Music Group, Jurek and girl from LCMDF in the line-up.

UMK as a concept is not about names. It is important to have this in mind.

He is really good live!

The thing is that to get to the final and to do well/reasonably well in ESC, countries like Finland (not really much hyped by fans and which have medicore history of televoting) need to rely on jury's support. This is the song the most likely to be hyped by juries in this line-up.

Why it even exists? How YLE found him? Why some people support it?

Narigz would be amazing! I love her voice and her songs.

There would be hope for the first great song from Russia after several years of disappointments (since 2010 every year)

I wonder about one thing. This kind of song would get some high amount of points at Eurovision from Finland but at the same time this type of songs are not able to win UMK (We should be through, Sängyn Reunalla, On it goes). I hope that this year it will finally change. I'm sure this is not gonna w...

My other impression is that it is rather typical fan-entry. Perfect rather for OGAE 2sd Chance Contest than ESC. In ESC it could flop easily.

I wonder about one thing. This kind of song would get some high amount of points at Eurovision from Finland but at the same time this type of songs are not able to win UMK (We should be through, Sängyn Reunalla, On it goes). I hope that this year it will finally change.

This is too much radio blandness to even bother. Sounds like a song imported from Dansk Melodi Grand Prix.

It reminds me not only about Justs, Mans and Ghostown but also a song from Lithuanian selection

1. Norma John - Blackbird 2. Lauri Yrjölä - Helppo elämä 3. Zühlke - Perfect villain 4. My First Band - Paradise 5. Emma - Circle of light 6. Club La Persé - My little world 7. Anni Saikku - Reach out for the sun 8. Alva - Arrows 9. Günther & D'Sanz - Love yourself 10. Knucklebone Oscar & Th...

Such a cool song! It is like Mans + Justs + Ghostown.

My number 2.

IT HAS TO WIN!!!!!!!

but will not becuase people have weird perception that Eurovision shouldn't be about sad songs as well.

I have hope in international juries.

Oh gosh. So we have our obligatory eurovision stereotype in the line-up. Like Clarissa in 2014 or Saara Aalto last year.
It is catchy but lame.

Can some songs leak or can we get more rumours?

I love the guessing part before the announcement.

I'd love to see Krsita and Softengine doing duo as interval act.

Any rumours regarding artists? I miss annual set of rumours

Are we talking about the same song or version? Electro pop ballad, really? It is very hard to find anything particularly updated in this entry. It only sound something that I've already heard million times, better versioned even. It's really difficult for Edyta to turn this average composition into...
