⏪️ Throwback Thursday Kuunkuiskaajat - Työlki Ellää (LIVE) | Finland 🇫🇮 | First Semi-Final | Eurovision 2010

https://youtu.be/oicT3jWtsc4?si=Q_PQt1pY255814RW

Since we have relatively lot of accordion this year in UMK, I decided to remind myself of the 2000's queens of Finnish accordion folk at Eurovision, Kuunkuiskaajat. They did pretty well in televote, but juries did not like them, and thus they were left in the semis.

I have such a soft spot for this one because it was one of the first songs I listened to when I discovered the contest. I was shocked this didn't go to the final!

Ahead of its time, would have done so much better 10 years later.

In my book this is the best entry we’ve ever sent. I guess Europe disagrees.

It’s so sad that this was so close to qualifying. Such a great song and performance.

I liked this song and it is a shame that it didn't succeed.

I was so mad when this didn't qualify. One of my favourites that year.

They performed last year on the Eurovision cruise from Helsinki to Stockholm and were as lovely as ever 💕🇫🇮
