wow i really like this. in the beginning i was like meh, piano ballad but as the chorus arrived i was hooked! what a voice and what a beautiful arrangement!! a lot of love for this one
actually this is the first (and so far only) song i've heard in any preselection that i adore and would give 12 points to.

yea the live performance is gonna make or break it BUT i think she's able to stage this very artful and classy, she seems like a great artist.
not sure if voters want such a mellow song but i seriously adore it, cannot stop listening. definite favourite this year so far

Keira has now over 228 youtube views (trending number 2), Benjamin has over 189 youtube views, (trending number three) Robin has over 110k youtube views (trending number 4) and Lxandra has over 21k youtube views (not trending).
Finland Top 50 spotify list (I think this is still yesterday's list):
8. Benjamin - Hoida mut 35587
11. Keira - Not Business On The Dancefloor 31658
If Lxandra's stage is like Aksel Kankaanranta's stage in 2020, I think she is going to do well in our national final and even win a whole thing.

Lxandra „Something To Lose“ (?)
no idea,what to do with this song - will vote him later.must hear him several times - the sound of that video is bad or too quiet - maybe on stage then a grower?
a big hmmm so far.
You mean her?
Lyxandra's song really got me. Could be my most favorite from all NFS songs so far. If she stages this right with a similar staging and atmosphere like in the video and creates beautiful moments, this can go far - more than a Benjamin or Keira. But if staged wrong, she can also go under. But I wish so much that Finland would choose this pearl.
I am on Keira representing us, but I understand well, if Lxandra or Benjamin represent us in Eurovision. I am not sad, if this scenario happens.

Isn't Robin just going to win this anyway? Lol.
100% hope, that he isn't winning UMK 2023
. His song isn't good enough.

Somehow I see this too, I'm pretty sure Lxandra uses simple pretty light elements on her performance. Not sure about winning though because this song is not everyone's taste, hmm...
This could work simply though: Just her standing in the middle with a microphone in front of her, and maybe even just one light behind her which may flicker, move or not like S10 (The Netherlands, 2022) or Barbara Bravi (France, 2021).
Who knows there can be dancer(s) and/or background singers or just echo of her own voice on background to bring this song to another level too... Simple and beautiful performance is what I'm waiting for though.
May i ask why Robin is the favourite? Is he that popular? (I personally dont know him i'm not really familiar with the music scene in finland, the only one i've heard of before is lxandra). His Song is imo by far the weakest one of the 4 that have already been released

Lets not kid ourselves, this would be Paendra2.0, even their artist names are alike.

Robin is a quite famous, young, pop singer in Finland. Almost every Finn has heard of him. He started his career singing in Finnish when he was just 13 years old with a song called Frontside Ollie. That was one hit... After that he did a lot of music, performed to the growds, took part of Finnish shows... In 2017 he did a musical break after a big concert and continued in 2019 with an international career in mind, that meant he changed his language to English which was very discussable change to some people in his career, to this day his international career hasn't really taken off, yet fully, so most of Finns think this is part of the reason why he is taking part of UMK and possibly why he wants to go to Eurovision. He seems a very sympathetic guy what I have listened some of his interviews, just this song, Girls Like You isn't very good. Just would hope him well though, it has been a rocky road since the change, from what I have heard.
Probably. Then I will riot and destroy my room, simply because "Girls like me" do this.
um i see why u could compare those songs but "something to lose" is on a totally different level. and her name is Paenda if u want to be smart
