"Käärijä how many genres do you want?" "yes"
This just makes me wanna dance and go crazy and I'm not even that type of person. Wow! This should represent Finland at Eurovision 2023, I think this is the song which could do big things in Liverpool! 👀

Funnily enough, the song is about not being that type of person, but trying to get there. The lighter pop part in the end describes just that, when you're drunk enough to let go 😂

It's my favourite UMK song so far. It's sooo good! Something we haven't heard earlier. Finnish people will love this, people will go crazy
It's like wtf in a good way... Really love it! Also, as an Estonian, I'm jealous of our neighbours for having so many songs in Finnish this year in their selection.

@@intensemint7800 Agree. I still hope we'll send a song in Estonian again in the nearest future, it's been 10 years... It's amazing to have a song in Finnish this year in the contest, and more than that, such a banger and a contender to win! I really wish Ollie represented us but yeah, we have what we have.
I love how literally EVERYONE describes this "chaotic" and "crazy", and in the next sentence they say they LOVE it & it totally stands out. Hope this will win the nationals.
I thought I loved Bemjamin... but CHA CHA CHAAAAAAH!!!!!!! My vote goes for this in UMK! And instantly on my spotifylist

I love both and would happy with either of them winning My worry tho is that Finland will play that game of who’s more popular again and will assume Robin is their best bet 🙄
This is my jam. This is my Winner. Best UMK ever. Best NF this year., IDC if this will Win or not , this is my playlist king already. This is the moment , original, replay button is smashed, sure qualifier at ESC, great staging material, powerful energetic , outstanding , will make your day, daring but in a good way, easily top10 ESC. Best song so far out of all National finalists across every country. Spain Estonia and Norway… I am truly sorry. Finland will not be forgotten this year AND this the best NF this year, nothing better will come as overall package, overall level of competition and quality from NF this year.

At first, I was a bit let down by the surprise popschlager ending, as I would have preferred it being full-on electro-metal for the whole three minutes. But as Mikko Kummelus already pointed out, it totally fits the lyrics and makes sense as a whole packet. Finland, you have outdone yourself. Please, please, please, send this! I love it so, so much!
Käärijä! The Wrapper! 💯🥊💪🥳 CHA CHA CHA on 🔁🔁😊

We've had a guy called Tapio Hakanen (Dj Orkidea) responsible for the song selection since 2020,I think that has made a difference!
YES, this is it !!!!!! we have to send this to ESC!
I can't stop listening to this song since yesterday! It has become my favorite from UMK23
I quite like it when someone surprises me, and this was so not what I expected, but a million times better. I don't usually vibe with this type of music, but this is my current favourite of the ones released. I don't want us to send a generic pop song, when we have something that is gonna be hard to ignore.
Im with you here , Matt, lets Cha Cha cha!!
Love ❤ this ❤ song ❤
I just heard it for the first time (I'm catching up a bit later this year) and I'm OBSESSED. O B S E S S E D !

He is a man who is a serious and tough guy. But when he drinks a pina colada at the bar during the evening, his protection is broken. When enough alcohol has been drunk, he dares to break free to dance. So that's why it's aggressive rap first and turns into dance. UMK songs always have English subtitles available. :)

I do not know if this wins ESC if he"s going to Liverpool, one thing i'm sure of is that he would SMASH that televote.
I love this♥♥♥Käärijä is super good
This is the only song from Finland I like so far, I think it´s really good
Def my favorite!
Everyone's saying the song is polarising but I haven't really heard anyone dislike the song. Everyone seems to love or at least appreciate it.
That's Finnish mentality in 3 mins when they are going to enjoy evening in the bar.
I see Rammstein tattoo , I press like!
I love this, it's definitely my favourite but my teenage daughter hates it with a fiery passion :D
Love it. It’s a total banger. But also really like Hoida mut and No Business on the Dance Floor. Finland killing it as usual, except for Girls Like You which I think is pretty poor ( so bound to win 😝)
Btw, you can select english subtitles for these finnish UMK songs. This songs is fun and Benjamin has hot lyrics too 👹
Hi. Thank you for commenting Finnish songs in these past years. I have been waiting to listen and seeing them (you) 🤭 I like your adult, but boyish look and wishing you all the best 😌
This is my favourite of the umk songs so far.
This is absolutely best of them all, we must send Käärijä to Liverpool! He will def absolutely destroy the venue 😂💪🔥❤️
Finally something that isn't boring, SEND IT
This is Achille Lauro + Hatari+ Ciciolina 🥵💦 My N1
Its GOOD GOOD!!! iam from Finland.. But.. i have to wate.. Portion boys 👍👍
"Don't worry about the juries" :D
Käärijä= The wrapper.
This reminds me of DAF s "Der Mussolini". Not sure how to process that.
Must win! Must win!
It's my fav song of the season by far. Unless we gona hear sth more overwhelming and guaranteed winner by March 12, opinions might change. If not - Finland - You rock!! Now just choose THE song XD
I don't know why, but this feels like I was watching an East-Asian action movie, either Chinese or Japanese.
This is the One !
yes, finland, choose this! It's the energy I was missing last year in ESC due to Electric Callboy not being allowed to compete
cha cha cha-cha-cha-chaaaaaaaaaaa
I am with u.. about this 👍👍
Stop UMK! This is the winner 🔥🔥
this is a geam, honestly. it's Finnland's to lose, hope they pick this one. umk is sooo great this year, but THIS IS IT great react! I felt the same way lol
Even so he himself does rap-music, his greatest and most favorite influencer is the Rammstein. 🤘 That's from where he got ideas and inspiration to this song. (I think you can hear it, and naturally see it as well.) He himself told this in Finnish newspaper. Ps. He had have that hairstyle for over decade... probably influenced by Rammstein as well? 🤔
You were so right! Thank God Finland chose it! Definitely top3 public vote material.
Mind blowing, in many ways, this could have ended as a weird parody. Good work UMK! P.S Just love the outfit :P
I didn't like it, when I just heard the last part. I listened to the whole song and I love it A LOT. First - you get the Hatari vibe (I got it). Then you get the "electronic heavy metal", as you said. And in the end you reach the "anime-ending part" :D It's crazy, it's amazing.
Very Andrew WK at the start, then Tokyo hotel at the end.
If esc will suck this year i feel scandinavia will save the whole thing Wth was this the older people will not like this i think but the the younger people will go massive on this Umk is getting really good finland is trying hard

No Robin is not. The Finnish audience reaction to Robin's song has been disappointed. The expectations were so high and he brought a little boring pop song that doesn't really have any catch in it. I'm sorry for Robin, cos he definitely can sign. I don't know why they made so bad song for him😕 But the other three have a lot more fans and in my books Käärijä blew the bank🔥💥💣😃 Definitely my favorite!!

@@taijat I agree with you. I'm too old to be in Robin's target group but I was really disappointed with his song. I really liked his Finnish songs but ever since he's so doing English it feels like he's trying too hard. It's a shame because I feel his signature isn't there anymore and it's a shame because he's really talented.
Finnish Eurovision forum is already ranking this as almost 5 star song, which is way above the others, so this could very well win UMK unless next songs are even better. I fear YLE screws the staging though, as usual.
He is cool guy - a rising hipster rapper and mene artist.
This is Rammstein type song!

Reminds me of Electric Callboy or Finland’s own Waldo’s People. If only “Lose Control” had been performed better….

I like it. But there is so much autotune, I just hope it works live also.
Käärijä just got voted to Liverpool 🥳🥳🥳
He must be Finlands choice plssss do the right thing
I hope I don't look like boo boo the fool in a few weeks but I could see this being the gf winner depending on how things go
This song is a bit too hyperactive and all over the place for my tastes. I wonder how they'll translate this video and the partially autotuned studio version into a live performance that actually works.

You again, out here commenting from the museum exhibition. You're too old for this Graham.
This is already way too overhyped, and only because it's 3min of pure terror noise. Truly sad if this wins over keira, lxandra or benjamin. I'll say this: it's NOT original bc hard rock/metal songs exist in millions, heard it already before as well.. and second, you don't have to be a noise-fest to be original. And three, i want finland to do something different than rock/metal.. original??... Maybe in Moldova's or Malta's selection yes, but in this field? It's not bad, but C'mon.. it's just a mess, like albania
