Eurovision 1962 - Finland

Marion Rung performing "Tipi-Tii" ("Chirpy-Chirp"), the Finnish entry at the 1962 Eurovision Song Contest.
A silly but immensely catchy little song, this is arguably the most well-known among the first Finnish entries and a true classic of early 60s ESC. Marion would return to the contest in 1973 (again in Luxembourg, again performing first in the running order!) with "Tom Tom Tom", and this time she'd do a bit better than the 7th place she achieved with this one, reaching 6th place - which was Finland's best-ever showing at the contest before Lordi!

[@JackWalker12993]

Marion Rung is such a legend! Arguably Finland's greatest Eurovision entrant, this is one of the most underrated songs from the 60s

[@IzayoiArwena]

yes, thats a great song, but I loved the first Finnish one better. Shame that its underrated. Finland 1961 is beautiful, this one is happy and catchy

[@naulapommi666]

yea

[@naulapommi666]

this is good but as a finnish person i can say Sata Salamaa and Hard Rock Hallelujah are the best and also Aina Mun Pitää

One of my favorite Eurovision entries ever. Marion Rung (16 years old at the time!) gives a warm, charming, very assured performance. Definitely my favorite from that year, followed by Yugoslavia.

Etsimään riennetään
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii
Armahin kummankin
Kuorolaulu kun lauletaan
Tässä kumpikin oksallaan
Saamme kauemmas kuulumaan
Kutsun rakkauden
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii
Pesänkin rakensin
Tipi-tii, tipi, tipi, tipi-tii
Tule vain armahain
Kevät siivin iloisin
Liihoittelee meillekin
Pyöritellen tullessaan
Aurinkoista vannettaan

Song says "Tässä kumpikin oksallaan".
"When we are singing a choral, here both sitting on own branch" and it continues "...we can make call of love to sound further".
"On own branch" is in finnish "oksallaan". Branch of tree is in Finnish "Oksa". The song tells about birds in same tree in springtime (mixed with love -theme).

It was "oksallaan". "Tässä kumpikin oksallaan" = " Here both on own branch". (Birds sitting on different branches of a tree)
