I don't wanna lose control, but I'm falling, falling down

I got this panic emotion that I cannot describe to you
My world is tumbling down, what am I, what am I gonna do?
Ca-can't deny it, deny it, what am I going through?
Ca-can not fight it, can't fight it, now I'm looking for the truth

I don't wanna live a lie – checking on my sanity
'Cause baby, maybe I can do without – is it all a fantasy?
I don't wanna live a lie – is this my reality?
It's spinning round 'n' round day 'n' night

I don't wanna lose control, but I'm falling
I just can't believe it
Never thought that I would be the one falling down
I don't wanna lose control, but I'm falling
I just can't believe it
Never thought that I would be the one falling down

I'm on a critical mission, got my destiny in my hands
Like Peter Piper I take control, put a spell on the mass
I cause hysteria, worry yourself, that's how I roll
It's not a drill, I'm for real, I'm a man who's out of control

I don't wanna live a lie – checking on my sanity
'Cause baby, maybe I can do without – is it all a fantasy?
I don't wanna live a lie – is this my reality?
It's spinning round 'n' round day 'n' night

I don't wanna lose control, but I'm falling
I just can't believe it
Never thought that I would be the one falling down
I don't wanna lose control, but I'm falling
I just can't believe it
Never thought that I would be the one falling down

I'm falling, I'm falling
And I just can't believe it
I'm falling, I'm falling down

I don't wanna lose control, but I'm falling
I just can't believe it
Never thought that I would be the one falling down
I don't wanna lose control, but I'm falling
I just can't believe it
Never thought that I would be the one falling down

This was by far the biggest surprise for me that night. Finland in last place? I thought it was one of the better songs so this was quite a bummer. It sucks even more knowing that neither the televoters nor the juries put it in last place but combining both scores caused them to drop to the bottom.
The studio version is more appealing than the live performance but nevertheless I think it's a great song and the best last placer this decade.

Live vocals... Still, it had a nice beat and for a pre-contest favourite, I was astounded with them ending in last, though it was a reasonable place. :|

 

[Milos-BC]

The biggest surprise for me. I thought that it will be in the top10, or at least somewhere near.....And i was also surprised when i saw that it was the jury wildcard in the semi 1 :shock:

 

[ParadiseES]

I still don't understand this either :shock:
Yeah, live performance was bad, but still....... I liked it a lot!

 

[alca]

I still love it but yeah the live vocals were...

 

[imno12u]

What a catchy and energetic song! Also kinda retro too (I'm thinking 90's here). Should have been top 10, if not top 5

I agree that the song is quite good, but speaking of good and great vocals.....did you really listen to them in the final?? :?

please,Aze's vocelas were dreadful and still 3rd.

 

[ParadiseES]

I agree Aze's vocals were not perfect, but still not really dreadful.
Anyway, that doesn't make the Finnish performance good

 

[Archer]
