Re: Finland

Hey everyone! Finland celebrates its 100th anniversary of independence on December 6th, it's the perfect timing for taking over this country that has a lot of meaning for me.My second homtown I'm so happy that I started learning some disco steps with a Finnish teacher!

... it was just a hint of what Finland can offer you from now in WorldVision! ​

Thank you very much!
I know Finland has such a reputation in this contest, mostly close to pot F/9 and some hot hits are not expected, but you never know with me.
As oldies are doing super great lately and I want to be in the Final badly, I thought about sending some hot covers!

Indeed, Finns can into disco!

Re: Finland A NEW ERA STARTS!!!! WV 87

Ready to receive a huge amount of points? Your Finland in FSC was one of my favourite countries, in my general top 3 as my votes say. But since here you have a wider range to choose from, I am expecting something even more glorious

Mimmit - Letkis

Letkis (Letkajenkka) is a Finnish traditional folk dance. It became popualr in early 60s when Erik Lindström introduced this version of "Jenkka" using non-conventional instruments. Ever since, the song and dance steps have been used for parties such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries... did I say it's Finland's 100th anniversary of independence, well this is how I will celebrate it !! xparty


kick to the left with the left foot & step back into the middle
kick to the left with the left foot & step back into the middle
kick to the right with the right foot & step back into the middle
kick to the right with the right foot & step back into the middle
jump forwards with both feet together (for only a few inches)
jump backwards with both feet
jump forwards three times with both feet

Did I tell you it hit Japanese charts? oh well, it did...

Vilma Alina feat. Jon-Jon - Syliin

LYRICS

Hengitys syvään
ja laske viiteen
(yy kaa koo nee)
viimenen kerta ku en kelaa ennenku teen

ensin sanoin liian vähän ja sit seuraavaks
aivan liikaa
ja sit sä vaan käänsit sun kyljen
nyt kumpikin makaa hiljaa

mä niin vihaan sun selkää
ja kaipaan takas syliin, sun syliin
arvaan et sä oot hereillä
vaikka pidät silmii kii

anna mun tää hyvittää
ja rakastaa sua hyvin, niin hyvin
ettet sä ikinä enää
ikinä ees pääse musta yli
syliin, syliin
syliin, syliin

Anteeksi siitä et
mä epäilin sua
vaikka sä uskalsitkin mulle avautua
sä oot ihan viimeinen tyyppi,
jota haluisin satuttaa
anna mä nyt näytän sen sulle kuin paljon
tää mua kaduttaa

mä niin vihaan sun selkää
ja kaipaan takas syliin, sun syliin
arvaan et sä oot hereillä
vaikka pidät silmii kii

anna mun tää hyvittää
ja rakastaa sua hyvin, niin hyvin
ettet sä ikinä enää
ikinä ees pääse musta yli
syliin, syliin
syliin, syliin

ota mut takas sun syliin
ota mut takas sun syliin
ota mut takas
syliin, syliin
ota mut takas

mä niin vihaan sun selkää
ja kaipaan takas syliin, sun syliin
arvaan et sä oot hereillä
vaikka pidät silmii kii

anna mun tää hyvittää
ja rakastaa sua hyvin, niin hyvin
ettet sä ikinä enää
ikinä et pääse musta

LYRICS IN ENGLISH

Breathe deep
and count to five
(one two three four)
The last time I do not think before I act

First I said too little and then
way too much
And then you just turned over
now we both lie silently

I so hate your back
and yearn back into arms, your arms
I guess that you are awake
even if you're keeping your eyes closed

Let me make this up
and love you well, so well
So that you never again
ever even get over me
into arms, into arms
into arms, into arms

Sorry that
I doubted you
Even when you dared to open up to me
You are the very last guy
who I wanted to hurt
Let me show it to you how much
I regret it

I so hate your back
and yearn back into arms, your arms
I guess that you are awake
even if you're keeping your eyes closed

Let me make this up
and love you well, so well
So that you never again
ever even get over me
into arms, into arms
into arms, into arms

Take me back into your arms
Take me back into your arms
Take me back
into arms, into arms
Take me back

I so hate your back
and yearn back into arms, your arms
I guess that you are awake
even if you're keeping your eyes closed

Let me make this up
and love you well, so well
So that you never again
ever get over me.

Tarujen Saari - Sota kirottu!

Tarujen Saari is a Finnish folk band. They are known for playing songs from a variety of European folk traditions as well as original compositions. What makes Tarujen Saari slightly different from other Nordic bands is that they focus on medieval traditions from all across Europe, so the tunes and songs are re-arranged from Scottish, English, French, Italian, Swedish, and Finnish sources.

"Sota kirottu!" is their version of an old French folk anti-war traditional song often known as "The Battle of Bouvines" or just "Le Prince d' Orange".

I hope you enjoy it!

Lyrics

Heräs' prinssi Oranjen aamulla nopeaan
Hän pyysi hovipoikaa ratsunsa noutamaan
Voi sota kirottu! - ratsunsa noutamaan

Hän pyysi hovipoikaa ratsunsa noutamaan
Oi minne kaunis prinssi aiotte matkustaa?
Voi sota kirottu! - aiotte matkustaa?

Oi minne kaunis prinssi aiotte matkustaa?
Nyt Ranskaan kuningasta kiirehdin tapaamaan
Voi sota kirottu! - kiirehdin tapaamaan

Kun Ranskaan kuningasta kiirehdin tapaamaan
Niin voimissani lähdin, piestyn palasin
Voi sota kirottu! - piestyn palasin

Niin voimissani lähdin, piestyn palasin
Rintaani engelsmanni löi keihään kolmesti
Voi sota kirottu! - löi keihään kolmesti

Rintaani engelsmanni löi keihään kolmesti
Sain viillon olkapäähän ja haavan kylkeeni
Voi sota kirottu! - sain haavan kylkeeni

Sain viillon olkapäähän ja haavan kylkeeni
Sain piston vielä rintaan, siihen kai kuolenkin
Voi sota kirottu! - siihen kai kuolenkin

Sain piston viel rintaan, siihen kai kuolenkin
Niin kuoli kaunis prinssi ja arkkuun laitettiin
Voi sota kirottu! - ja arkkuun laitettiin

Niin kuoli kaunis prinssi ja arkkuun laitettiin
Sen neljän munkin nähtiin hautaavan jonnekin
Voi sota kirottu! - hautaavan jonnekin.

Lyrics in English

The beautiful Prince of Orange,
Wake up early in the morning,
Going to see his servant
"Saddle my horse"
Damned war! Saddle my horse
Going to see his servant
" Saddle my horse"

"My beautiful Prince of Orange
Where do you want to go?"
Damned war! Do you want to go there?
My Beautiful prince of Orange,
where do you want to go?

I want to go to France
where the king calls me.
Damned war! Where the king calls me.
"I want to go to France where the king calls me"

Put the hand on the rein,
The foot in the stirrup
Damned war! in the stirrup.
Put the hand on the rein,
The foot in the stirrup

I left in good health
but I'm coming back injured
Damned war! I'm coming back injured.
I left in good health
but I'm coming back injured

I've got one strike in my shoulder
and the other one in my rib
Damned war! one in my rib.

I've got one strike in my shoulder
and another one in my rib,
The beautiful prince of Orange is dead and buried.
Damned war! He's buried

Jenni Vartiainen - En haluu kuolla tänä yönä

Lyrics

Pelkään panna silmät kiinni, jos ne eivät aukeekaan
Aamulla kuin aina ennen jäisin siihen makaamaan
Enkä voisi kättä nostaa, saati pystyy sanomaan
Mä en haluu kuolla tänä yönä
Mä en haluu kuolla tänä yönä
Olen kesken, en siis lainkaan valmis täältä poistumaan
Juuri kun on meno käynyt elämältä maistumaan
Mulla olis yksi toive, yksi pieni pyyntö vaan
Mä en haluu kuolla tänä yönä
Mä en haluu kuolla tänä yönä
Lupaan lukea Raamatun ja raitistun
Jos saan aikaa, se varmasti onnistuu
Mut ei tänä yönä
Jääköön taakseni syntinen entinen
Pystyn muuttumaan vielä, mä tiedän sen
Mut ei tänä yönä
Annathan siis katsoo vielä, miltä näyttää huominen
Niin mä teen mun parhaani, et oisin hyvä ihminen
Tiedän, että kuulet tämän, pyyntöni mun rukouksen
Mä en haluu kuolla tänä yönä
Mä en haluu kuolla tänä yönä

Lyrics in English

I'm afraid to close my eyes incase I can't open them again
I'd stay there laying in the morning like before
And I couldn't raise my arm or say a word

I don't want to die tonight
I don't want to die tonight

I'm unfinished so definitely not ready to leave here
Just now the going has started to taste like life
I just have one wish, one small request

I don't want to die tonight
I don't want to die tonight

I promise to read the Bible and I'll become sober
If can start I'm sure I can do it
But not tonight
Let the sinful life be left behind me
I can still change, I know
But not tonight

So please let me see what tomorrow is like
And I will do my best to be a good person
I know you can here this request, my prayer

I don't want to die tonight

Chisu - Kohtalon Oma

Lyrics

https://lyricstranslate.com/en/kohtalon-oma-destinys-own.html#ixzz5FqZ7aC4Z

Otan sua ranteista kii ja sidon käsinojiin
Tää on ainoa mun keino paeta
Nään ku siin tuolissas oot jo huolissas
Tätä tahtois en, tää on mun keino viimeinen

Mä katkon sun peukalon ettet sä liftata voi mun perään
Sit etusormen vuoro on ettet sä töki mua sillä enää

Hei kohtalo, oon iso tyttö jo
Ja mä päätän sen kenen oon tai en

Muistan kun moikkasit mua, vaikken ees tuntenu sua
Ja mut sun vangiks veit ja tahtos selväks teit
Mut kuule kohtalo, mul oma tahto on
Ja nyt se varmistaa, ettet sä enää kii siit saa

Ja murran sun keskarin, ettet sä häpäise mua enää
Ja nimetöntä säälisin, mut ei se mitään fiksua teekään

Hei kohtalo, oon iso tyttö jo
Ja mä päätän sen kenen oon tai en
Hei kohtalo, mul oma tahto on

Mut sun pikkurilliäs en vie, vaan mun mielessä salaa
mä toivon, et sä muutut kiltimmäks ja ehkä vielä mä palaan
Ja antaudun, siihen kietoudun
Jos teen päätöksen, et oon sun nainen

Hei kohtalo, oon iso tyttö jo
Ja mä päätän sen kenen oon tai en.

Lyrics in English

https://lyricstranslate.com/en/kohtalon-oma-destinys-own.html#ixzz5FqZ14gjp

I grab your wrists and tie them to arms of a chair
This is my only way to escape
I can see how you're already worried there in your chair
I wouldn't want this, this is my last trick

I cut your thumb so you can't hitchhike after me
Then it's your forefinger's turn so you don't poke me anymore

Hey destiny, I'm a big girl now
And I decide whose I am and whose not

I remember when you greeted me even though I didn't even know you
And you took me as your prisoner and you had your way
But listen destiny, I have my own will
And now it ensures that you won't take it anymore

And I break your middle finger so you won't disgrace me anymore
And I'd pity the ring finger but it won't do anything clever anyways

Hey destiny, I'm a big girl now
And I decide whose I am and whose not
Hey destiny, I have my own will

But I won't take your little finger cause secretly in my mind
I hope that you become more kind and maybe I'll return
And surrender, intertwine to it
If I decide to be your woman

Hey destiny, I'm a big girl now
And I decide whose I am and whose not
