Haha! You got that right. Robin is basically Bieber of Finland and I'm 100% sure that is exactly what they aimed for with him. They are not exactly being subtle about it.
This list was only about the songs that are sang in Finnish. Metal and rock is hugely popular in Finland. For example some of Nightwish's videos in TH-cam have over 40 million views, some even over 100 million views. Haloo Helsinki is one of the most popular bands in Finland. They are a rock/pop band. I'd recommend a song from them called Pulp Fiction. That song is one of their biggest hit. That song was also on this list. It was the number 13. I wouldn’t say that Robin and Ckeek are the most famous artists in Finland, at least not anymore. Cheek is retired and Robin is trying to make an internatiol career singing in English. It's hard to say who could be the most popular right now.... well... Haloo Helsinki is still hugely popular but I wouldn’t sya they are solely the most popular in Finland.... there are many and it depends on who you ask🤷♀️ But if you go to spotify, I think the one who have the most listeners (of the ones who sing in Finnish) monthly is a rap duo called JVG... and that is not counting Käärijä (he got big becauseof the Eurovision, but I think his fame might come down.... it has already)
@@mantailuaa but what I was referring to was that during the hype Käärijä had like 7 million listeners so it has already gone down a lot.... but I am not a fortune teller so I'm just guessing... what do I know
@tuuli4002 I see where you are coming from with that aspect of Käärijä, but personally I would predict him staying on top for quite some time. 🤔 Of course he wouldn't keep all the listeners that brought him the streams from Cha cha cha. That is the breakthrough hit for him, which will probably always be the most streamed one because it had all the fame around the world through Eurovision. But now people know him, and every new song he will release will be recognised in a different way than the older ones. I mean, of course that craziness around Cha cha cha will have to even out, but as he makes more and more new music, people will listen to those. Of course popular artists start to have that many listeners only after they got their first big hit, and collected more streams with every hit released after that. Of course it depends on how people will like the music Käärijä will make from now on, but I'm saying it is too early to draw conclusions quite yet only because people are not listening to CCC quite that much anymore, six months from its peak. Let's give him some time to show what he is about, before judging 😁
There would be more metal and rock if this list included english songs from FInland, because most of famous Finnish metal bands sing in english. We don't really even listen to most of these songs, but this was probably based on listeners on spotify or youtubeviews and not what we really listen to.
Plenty of people do listen to these songs. They have high statistics for a reason. I think this is just a case of a lot of people living in a bubble when it comes into music taste, where they only listen to a certain type of music while being ignorant of what other people listen to.
Cheek was insanely popular among female listeners, he made very commercial and mainstream songs that often felt really "cheap and cheesy" to many, but sold like hot cakes. Commercially he is easily one of the most successfull Finnish artists domestically, but has almost 0 reach outside of Finland and was not critically very acclaimed. His music is also very divisive (above reasons) so people usually either absolutely hate it or love it to death, the guy filled stadiums in Finland. However, even though many can't stand his music, there aren't many (if any) people who dislike him as a person And for Klamydia, yes, yes it is the same thing 😂 they are a punk rock band feom the 80s
I think Cheek was as popular among male listeners too, just the guys are too cool to show the fandom and it was kind of common opinion to talk trash about his music even though many listened to his songs. There is no denying he did what he did very well - just a matter of taste if you like or dislike the type of music and culture. I personally always saw the self irony in his over the top hip hop masculinity. If one doesnt see the irony, you have to be a true hiphop culture fanboy or you will really hate everything his songs and style represents. Same goes with most other hip hop / rap music too. To date I truly believe there are very few successful hip hop / rap artists who don't have some level of self irony in them. The irony transforms many otherwise toxic songs, styles and lyrics to actually smart and thoughtful. Its too bad we have too many especially young people who listen the music literally and we all can see the consequences.
@@tonilaitinen5197 As a man, i can say yeah, he was, but if it took some time, it would surprise me. I first heard Cheeks music in 2005-2007, and i became a fan, so i bought one of his albums: fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%A4%C3%A4nn%C3%A4n_sivuu (sadly, i don't have this album anymore).
I don't even think it was that much about Cheek or his music, but people just liked the idea that they all like something together. Being a fan of something successfull makes the fans feel like they've succeeded as well. And most people hated who they chose because it was so cheesy bulk music that got unreasonable success.
Yeah Klamydia as the STD, it's one of the most successful punk-rock bands in Finland. Their lyrics go from humor to really political stuff. And yeah Robin is pretty much the finnish Justin Bieber. Mean while Cheek did dominate the official lists for long time, now he is "retired". I believe these are somehow related to the official lists where metal music is just not represented. Metal is huge in Finland.
the clips on this video are way too short and badly cut to get any kind of idea of each song. Even for a finnish person who knows almost all of the songs many of the clips a really random pieces of songs - cut from the middle of sentence / chorus. Works as a list for us who already know the songs, but really not as a representation of finnish music for someone new to the subject. Robin and Cheek are very popular in these kind of streaming top lists, as their fan base is in 10-30 year olds, whom are also the biggest users of streamed music. If you look, radio play charts, album charts let alone physical album charts, the list is very different. And yes - metal and rock is big and part of the mainstream in finland, but not quite at the level of finnish schlager or hip hop. I'd say rap/hip hop dominates 0-40 year old demographic and finnish schlager / adult pop dominates in 30- year olds.
There’s also a playlist of songs voted by Finnish people as ”greatests finnish rock songs of all the time” th-cam.com/play/PLfYp28XhjLE1lpGsVw_-O48LbtMr28LKX.html&si=b2oA9ewi3HP6ku67
Check band called Leevi and the leavings. Something everyone will know in finland and good representation of our melancolly melodys. Maustetytöt (Spice girls in finnish) is maybe something to follow with as they are heavily influenced by Leevi and a still active band.
My recommendation would be Amorphis. They are the pioneers of melodic metal and their songs are all inspired by Kalevala, Finnish national epic. Amazing melodies, singer's voice is incredible and lyrics are captivating.
I don't know if the list is official anymore today, but it contained good music😊. Käärijän's Cha Cha Cha alone has more than 115K streams on Spotify As many have already written, a list with more Finnish music in English would be full of metal and heavy music 🤘🖤🤗
5:50 Yep, it is. That is a joke in their band name ^^' , they are Finnish Punk Rock band, and they have done music sense 1988. So, funny name, that is old joke, which no one in Finland laughs at anymore, Klamydia gets only respect, what they have deserve already many years, and Klamydia is like a legend already, or/and pioneer of Finnish punk rock. Here is more info in English; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klamydia , and in Finnish: fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klamydia_(yhtye)
This video made me realize we have a horrible taste in music. Disposable, generic, cheesy teen pop and crappy rap for the most part. I haven't heard at least half of the songs in the video.
I have herd of them, but for sure have not cared enough to listen to a single one of them. So much garbage. Easier to find good music from previous decades than recent ones.
Also, these songs are not all time most popular songs or best songs in anyway, but popular songs on spotify and I would say for mostly female listeners. For example, out of the top 10, I have heard only one song before since I haven't listened to POP radio in over a decade Cheek, Robin, Antti Tuisku and Anna Abreu are not artists men usually listen to outside of clubs. They are basically Justin Biebers of Finland in a way, except ofc Abreu, whose music just resonates more with women in general Actually many of the bigger megahits that most Finns loved were closer to the start of that list, not at the top, where it got very over-represented by one target audience
@Mert Fin... You might be interested to know that the artist at Number 10, Johanna Kurkela, is the wife of Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboardist, composer, and genius poet of Nightwish.
It would be interesting to know who thinks these are the Top 50 most popular songs in Finland. At least not according to Spotify. I saw a comment that these might be the most popular Finnish language ones, but that's not quite true either, at least according to the Spotify lists.
Oh what a set. In order to relate to this kind of music you have to be born several years after 2000. This is completely kids "music". Out of these 50 specimen there are about half a dozen songs that I can tolerate to listen more than once.
Funny to see Klamydia so high on the list. They're a punk band, going strong since the 90's. I remember they have an album named "masturbation without hands".
I as a geneneration z finn in turn have heard all of these songs vut that's bc this list is probably made based on Spotify streams so it's pretty understandable that finns my age know these songs better bc we've lived almost only that time when Spotify has been a thing.
List is pretty off. No metal or rock, none of the older bands or artists like Eppu Normaali, Leevi and the Leavings, Juice Leskinen etc. Seems more like mainstream pop list made in 2000s. Personally only like 3-5 songs out of the whole list I would include on my playlist.
Here's something iconic, that was never number one, but has lasted time. The song is almost 60 years old and it was sung by the composer, because the singer was too busy to come to the recording, but it really is one of the most loved love songs in Finland ever. It's based on a poem, like many songs that Chydenius composed. th-cam.com/video/e0rKzp8o6Do/w-d-xo.html Crude translation: "You, you I love, the night presses on my head A dark wreath so I don't see you. How do birds fold their wings How the waters tumble under the rocks How forests rise with the winds And the rain from the clouds solidifies into stone You, you I love, the night presses on my head A dark wreath so I don't see you. How does the space scream at me How the stars scream through my temples How children cry on the shores of the world And hearts are fuming over the seas. You you I love How your soft hand moves like a boat early On the morning river"
Im also fairly sure it's Spotify list. Those are like party hits that are included every auto list so that's probably why. Cheek already quit his career. I think his music ain't that good but he was probably the best person brand creator in Finland
Back in the spring of 2021 I did some research on the history of chart music in Finland. The main conclusion is that there is no objective measure of popularity; every measure favors one or more subsets of artists or bands at the expense of others. This is why you need to use multiple measures. But once you do, you can notice some intriguing patterns. I can provide a short version of my (now outdated) research if someone's interested.
I got my first like which I interpret to mean that someone might be interested. So here's the first measure: most records (singles, albums, EPs etc.) sold in Finland over the entire career (main source: IFPI until 2013/2015). This measure favors the peak record sales era of the 1980s/1990s and is no longer in official use. The numbers may seem low, but keep in mind that Finland isn't exactly the most populous country and Finnish isn't exactly the most spoken language out there. 1) Eppu Normaali, punk/rock (1976-): up to 2 million (depending on the source; 1,565,323 using IFPI numbers) 2) Matti ja Teppo, folk/Schlager (1969-): up to 1.5 million / 1,083,749 (IFPI) 3) Agents (originally known as Köyhien ystävät), instrumental/Schlager/rock/blues (1979-): 942,630 (IFPI) 4) Nightwish, folk/metal (1996-): 939,342 (calculated using IFPI numbers) 5) J. Karjalainen, blues/rock/folk/country/soul/pop (1981-): 908,517 (IFPI) 6) Jari Sillanpää, tango/Schlager (1993-): 849,496 (IFPI) 7) Kari Tapio, Schlager/country (1972-2010): 837,306 (Wikipedia & IFPI) 8) Yö, rock/Schlager (1981-2019): 692,828-900,000 depending on the source / 787,738 (IFPI) 9) Vesa-Matti Loiri, jazz/Schlager/pop (1971-2022): 763,794 (IFPI) 10) Kirka, Schlager/pop/rock/R&B/soul/funk/disco/metal (1967-2007): 761,388 (IFPI) NOTE: the best-selling foreign band is ABBA at 11 and the best-selling foreign (and female) artist is Madonna at 12.
Here's the second measure: most #1 singles (including EPs) in Finland between 1951 and 2020 (sources: IFPI; Wikipedia; Pomus Listatietokanta). This measure favors loyal fanbases and post-1980s due to charts being compiled more often. 1) Apulanta (punk/rock): 21 (including 1 collaboration) between 1996 and 2011 2) Cheek (rap): 17 (including 8 collaborations) between 2007 and 2017 3) JVG (originally known as “Jare & VilleGalle”, rap): 17 (8 collaborations) between 2011 and 2020 4) Nightwish (folk/metal): 14 + 1 for Tarja Turunen + 1 for Tarot = 16 between 1998 and 2012 5) Madonna (FOREIGN): 15 (2 collaborations) between 1986 and 2012 6) Elastinen (rap): 8 solo (6 collaborations) + 3 with Fintelligens (1 collaboration) = 11 between 2000 and 2020 7) Antti Tuisku (pop/dance): 10 (1 collaboration) between 2004 and 2020 8) HIM (rock/metal): 7 + 2 collaborations for Ville Valo = 9 between 1999 and 2008 9) Metallica (FOREIGN): 8 between 1991 and 2008 10) CMX (punk/rock/metal): 7 (1 collaboration) + 1 collaboration for A.W. Yrjänä = 8 between 1997 and 2006 11) Pet Shop Boys (FOREIGN): 7 #1 singles + 2 unofficial #1 hits between 1986 and 1993 12) Eppu Normaali (rock): 7 #1 singles + 2 unofficial #1 hits between 1985 and 2007 13) Children of Bodom (metal): 7 between 1998 and 2008 NOTE: albums have generally outsold singles and were included on the singles chart before separate album charts were released in 1966. Also note that several different singles charts were released in various medias before 1994, but only one of the lists was considered official at any given point in time (the magazine/media that published it also varied).
The third measure is a continuation of the second: most weeks at #1 on the singles chart in Finland between 1951 and 2020. The bias of this measure depends on whether we give earlier era entities the benefit of the doubt, since publishing periods between charts varied between 2-10 weeks until 1994, when lists became weekly. Here, topping 4 weekly lists > 2 fortnights > 1 month ≈ 28 days > 3 weeks. This way the measure is slightly less biased towards the modern era. 1) Apulanta (punk/rock): 21 #1 hits topping the charts for a total of 87 weeks 2) JVG (rap): 17 #1 hits topping the charts for 64 weeks 3) Nightwish (folk/metal): 16 #1 hits topping the charts for 48 weeks 4) Danny (pop/Schlager/rock/disco): 6-7 #1 hits topping the charts for 11-14 months 5) Madonna (FOREIGN): 15 #1 hits topping the charts for 9 fortnights + 23 weeks 6) ABBA (FOREIGN): 5 #1 hits topping the charts for 10 months 7) Cheek (rap): 17 #1 hits topping the charts for 36 weeks 8) Juice Leskinen (rock): 5 #1 hits topping the charts for 8 months + 2 fortnights 9) Tapani Kansa (Schlager/pop/rock/disco/operetta): 4 #1 hits topping the charts for 9-14 months 10) The Beatles (FOREIGN): 5-7 #1 hits topping the charts for 9-11 months 11) Annikki Tähti (Schlager/tango/swing/folk): 3 #1 hits topping the charts for 5 publishing periods = 7½ months 12) Brita Koivunen (Schlager): 3 #1 hits topping the charts for 5 publishing periods = ca. 7½ months 13) HIM (rock/metal): 9 #1 hits topping the charts for 29 weeks 14) Pet Shop Boys (FOREIGN): 7 #1 hits topping the charts for 14 fortnights 15) Irwin Goodman (folk/Schlager/rock/pop): 3-4 #1 hits topping the charts for 7-12 months 16) Louis Armstrong (FOREIGN): 2 #1 hits topping the charts for 3 publishing periods = ca. 6½ months 17) Elastinen (rap): 11 #1 singles topping the charts for 24 weeks 18) Fredi (folk/Schlager/disco): 4 #1 hits topping the charts for 6-10 months 19) Katri Helena (Schlager): 4 #1 hits topping the charts for 6-7 months NOTE: pre-80s sources at times disagree on what song actually topped the official chart. In some cases, this disagreement also concerns the artists/bands above: we know that one of them topped the chart in a given month, but which one was it? This is why the order above could change considerably depending on the sources.
Fourth measure: most #1 albums in Finland between 1966 and 2020. This measure favors longer careers. 1) Eppu Normaali (punk/rock): 9 studio albums + 3 compilations = 12 #1 albums between 1980 and 2011 2) Nightwish (folk/metal): 7 studio + 2 compilations + 1 live + 2 solo = 12 #1 albums between 2000 and 2020 3) J. Karjalainen (blues/rock/folk/country/soul/pop): 10 studio + 1 compilation = 11 #1 albums between 1986 and 2018 4) Madonna (FOREIGN): 8 studio + 2 compilations + 1 soundtrack = 11 #1 albums between 1986 and 2012 5) Yö (rock/Schlager): 8 studio + 2 compilations + 1 solo = 11 #1 albums between 1983 and 2016 6) Ismo Alanko (punk/rock): 9 studio (2 solo) + 1 compilation + 1 cover = 11 #1 albums between 1980 and 2013 7) Apulanta (punk/rock): 7 studio + 3 compilations = 10 #1 albums between 1997 and 2010 8) Agents (instrumental/Schlager/rock/blues): 7 studio + 2 solo = 9 #1 albums between 1979 and 2019 9) CMX (punk/rock/metal): 8 #1 studio albums between 1998 and 2018 10) Metallica (FOREIGN): 7 studio + 1 cover = 8 #1 albums between 1988 and 2016 11) Kotiteollisuus (rock/metal): 7 #1 studio albums between 2003 and 2018 12) Mokoma (metal): 7 #1 studio albums between 2006 and 2020 13) AC/DC (FOREIGN): 7 #1 studio albums between 1988 and 2020 14) Bruce Springsteen (FOREIGN): 6 studio + 1 compilation = 7 #1 albums between 1987 and 2014 (his best-selling album “Born in the USA” sold double platinum yet never reached #1 in Finland) 15) Ultra Bra/Scandinavian Music Group/Kerkko Koskinen Kollektiivi (pop/rock): 7 #1 studio albums between 1999 and 2014 (3 for Ultra Bra; 3 for Scandinavian Music Group; 1 for Kerkko Koskinen Kollektiivi) 16) Lauri Tähkä & Elonkerjuu (folk/rock): 3 together + 2 each separately = 7 #1 studio albums between 2007 and 2019
The fifth measure is a continuation of the fourth: most weeks at #1 on the albums chart in Finland between 1966 and 2020. The ranking system is the same as in the case of the singles. This measure naturally favors post-1966 artists/bands, but is otherwise less biased than the fourth. And since albums have usually outsold singles, it gives a pretty good idea of the real chart toppers in a given era. But it does ignore some popular albums that didn't reach #1. 1) The Beatles (FOREIGN): 5 studio albums + 1 compilation topping the charts for 13 months + 6 weeks 2) Tom Jones (FOREIGN): 4 studio + 1 cover + 1 live album topping the charts for 13 months + 2 weeks 3) Eppu Normaali (punk/rock): 12 #1 albums topping the charts for 1 month + 47 weeks 4) J. Karjalainen (blues/rock/folk/country/soul/pop): 11 #1 albums topping the charts for 47 weeks 5) Nightwish (folk/metal): 12 #1 albums topping the charts for 40 weeks 6) Madonna (FOREIGN): 11 #1 albums topping the charts for 38 weeks 7) Hector (folk/rock/country): 4 studio albums + 1 live album with Mestarit topping the charts for 7 months + 8 weeks 8) CCR/John Fogerty (FOREIGN): 2 studio + 1 solo = 3 #1 albums topping the charts for 8 months + 1 week 9) Dire Straits (FOREIGN): 3 studio albums + 2 compilations topping the charts for 6 months + 7 weeks 10) Hurriganes/Cisse Häkkinen (rock): 2 studio + 1 live + 1 solo album topping the charts for 7 months + 1 week 11) Bon Jovi (FOREIGN): 4 studio albums + 1 compilation topping the charts for 26 weeks 12) Agents (instrumental/Schlager/rock/blues): 9 #1 albums topping the charts for 1 month + 22 weeks 13) ZZ Top (FOREIGN): 4 studio albums + 1 compilation topping the charts for 1 month + 22 weeks 14) Metallica (FOREIGN): 8 #1 albums topping the charts for 25 weeks 15) Haloo Helsinki!/Ellips (pop/rock): 3 studio + 1 solo album topping the charts for 25 weeks (the band’s popularity has only grown in the post-record-sales era and even the sales numbers do not seem to be up to date) 16) Kirka (Schlager/pop/rock/R&B/soul/funk/disco/metal): 3 #1 albums topping the charts for 4 months + 9 weeks 17) Kaija Koo (Schlager/pop/rock): 5 studio albums topping the charts for 24 weeks 18) David Bowie (FOREIGN): 3 studio + 1 cover album topping the charts for 5 months + 4 weeks 19) Antti Tuisku (pop/dance): 6 studio albums topping the charts for 23 weeks NOTE: while the pop/rock group Haloo Helsinki! failed to make the cut on the singles charts, they have broken the record of most consecutive #1 radio hits twice: 4 between 2011 and 2012, and 6 between 2014 and 2016 - not to mention “Vapaus käteen jää” (which peaked at #2) is 13th on the all-time domestic singles sales list.
NIGHTWISH had 13 number 1 singles in Finland - back when such things actually meant something. They also have more hits on YT & Spotify than all of these artists - by a long way.
Checked the original video to see from the description on how the list was gathered - it looks like there was no real statistical method or a reliable source behind the list. I think the youtuber just gathered sogs he or she liked and thought were popular (probably a Cheek fan, eh), and then checked the (Spotify) stats for those to come up with an order for the chosen songs. The author even added a comment giving an additional list of songs that he/she had forgotten from the "top 50". So it sounds like this list really is just as meaningless as it appeared to be at first glance.
I think this list is very outdated since it doesnt even have ikuinen vappu which was the most streamed finnish song until this year when Käärijäs CHA CHA CHA came out which has more than 114 million plays on spotify
This list is probably just from 2010's. There should be newer ones like Bess and Erika Vikman if Spotify-list. And where are old ones: even Eppu Normaali has several songs over 10 million streams. And all the songs in english.... Quite a shitty list.
Cheek made massive bank and then retired in his mid 30s five years ago. He was selling out stadiums when he retired. Really nice guy. A couple of years ago I spoke with him briefly on the phone in relation to my work. Not really a fan of his kind of music, though. Haloo Helsinki is a great band, you should check out some of their songs.
Definitely popular songs all, but you can't really say that those are the most popular songs in Finland just based on those YT views. In all it's difficult to say which music is the most popular in Finland. And those were songs in Finnish and also on those songs some portion of the views comes from outside Finland. Most viewed Finnish song on YT might be Axel Thesleff's 'Bad Karma' with over 600 million (combined) views and most Finns probably haven't even heard of him or that song.
I read the comments on this original video, its made from popular finnish language youtube videos views. I dont like any of those 😏 I like Kaija Koo🤘this had one of her songs but it was with Cheek...
I'm wondering who has made this list. Most I haven't even heard and I really don't like cheek or many others here on the list. Klamydia is one of the best here as is Haloo Helsinki! too.
Cheek he was teen rapper who had luck got good manager and money. he makes few songs every 3-5 years so when he makes new teens go and hype it in sosial media. he allso was lucky and got job in television host and judge in Finish got talent show not so good songs but allmost must hear them in Finland when they are new and teens hype those songs
Personally, I probably like Cheek the most, but since he quit, I've listened the most (if you don't count Käärijä) maybe Spekti, Portion Boys... I don't know what I listen to the most about Finnish music, 'cause I listen to so much foreign music, eg. Imagine Dragons.
This list is definitely not the top 50 Finnish songs of all time. Maybe top youtube wievs or something, but there is plenty of older artists and song that are not in youtube that were super popular in their time, and even now every Finnish people know them.
Robin is the Justin Bieber of Finland but a bit younger and thus especially his older songs are more tame. And I bet this list was only songs in Finnish because there was no Nightwish or HIM
Cheek is retired now. These songs are from the same year or couple years apart. I would not say they are the most popular songs 'ever'. In this time period, yes. Except Klamydia. It was big in the 90's. IDK, before 90's, Finnish music was in the hands of few record labels. Apulanta and other bands started to make their own labels to make music, 'cos the old farts did not want anything to do with music that was not tango, polka or Finnish iskelmä.
I think that metal music is very if not most popular genre in Finland, but it is kind of divided 🤔. Like in these lists there is metal music and then there is all the other music. Metal is a different animal I guess 🤘🥴🤘
This was an "interesting" top 50. Yes, those artists were extremely popular at that time, but saying that Cheek should have about ten songs out of 50 is simply ridiculous. Also, this top 50 says nothing about the most popular songs in Finland. So many bands are missing - Eppu Normaali, Apulanta, PMMP, all metal bands, etcetera.
As finnish i can confirm barely anyone listens to robin and cheek nowadays. People mainly hate them for being insanenly garbage now. Petri Nygård is pretty famous and loved right now, atleast in here where i live.
Like in any country, all the good songs have been made so long time ago that the kids today have no idea. And because they've grown with this shit their brains have been injured permanently and they'll never will understand what good music sounds like. No autotune, dynamics, huh!
I never watch these Finnish top music lists since my taste is totally different from the main stream Finnish listener. I disliked or down right hated every song on this list. 😅 Metal and rock all the way. 🤘
To each their own, but I can't stand most of this what I call "radio music". This is why I never listen to radio. Yes, this is probably what teenagers/young people listen to. I listen mainly to different types of metal music and different electronic genres, like psy trance, goa trance, hardcore, hardstyle, industrial electro, aggrotech etc., none of which they play on radio.
I dont know where this list is from. These are definately popular artists and songs, but it seemed very one sided genre-wise. Only pop and rap. Maybe someone knows where this is taken from?
Amount of streams is such an odd way of seeing who's the most popular. It's more like who's got the most fanatic fans. Back when CDs and cassettes were a thing, they didn't count how many times you listened to it, so obviously music from that era can't compete with these numbers.
Unfortunately Robin and Cheek had a pretty insane run. Probably says something about finnish taste in music in the 2000s-2010s😂😂 I already knew this list will not have a single song that I play, like ever and I’m only 26. Even the more younger generation makes better shit than 90% of this list😂
This looks more like someones spotify list for a lousy party, lol.. TOP 50 songs i wouldn't listen, even if i was paid to xD (okay couple good ones but missing 90% of the real TOP songs)
Haha! You got that right. Robin is basically Bieber of Finland and I'm 100% sure that is exactly what they aimed for with him. They are not exactly being subtle about it.
Might be right too but Isac Elliot was literally made with project called Finnish Justing Bieber.
Yes klamydia means the same in finnish as in english! And yes that is the name of the band! :D
This list was only about the songs that are sang in Finnish. Metal and rock is hugely popular in Finland. For example some of Nightwish's videos in TH-cam have over 40 million views, some even over 100 million views.
Haloo Helsinki is one of the most popular bands in Finland. They are a rock/pop band.
I'd recommend a song from them called Pulp Fiction. That song is one of their biggest hit. That song was also on this list. It was the number 13.
I wouldn’t say that Robin and Ckeek are the most famous artists in Finland, at least not anymore. Cheek is retired and Robin is trying to make an internatiol career singing in English.
It's hard to say who could be the most popular right now.... well... Haloo Helsinki is still hugely popular but I wouldn’t sya they are solely the most popular in Finland.... there are many and it depends on who you ask🤷♀️
But if you go to spotify, I think the one who have the most listeners (of the ones who sing in Finnish) monthly is a rap duo called JVG... and that is not counting Käärijä (he got big becauseof the Eurovision, but I think his fame might come down.... it has already)
I was suprised no Apulanta on the list. But seemed this list was only party/dance music. Except few ballads.
JVG has something over 620k listeners a month where Käärijä has still over 1,2 million, totally in different league imo. Käärijä 💚
@@mantailuaa but what I was referring to was that during the hype Käärijä had like 7 million listeners so it has already gone down a lot.... but I am not a fortune teller so I'm just guessing... what do I know
@@suski5706 yeah, I was a bit surprised too... but they are also more from the rock side and this list is more pop and rap kinda list
@tuuli4002 I see where you are coming from with that aspect of Käärijä, but personally I would predict him staying on top for quite some time. 🤔 Of course he wouldn't keep all the listeners that brought him the streams from Cha cha cha. That is the breakthrough hit for him, which will probably always be the most streamed one because it had all the fame around the world through Eurovision. But now people know him, and every new song he will release will be recognised in a different way than the older ones. I mean, of course that craziness around Cha cha cha will have to even out, but as he makes more and more new music, people will listen to those. Of course popular artists start to have that many listeners only after they got their first big hit, and collected more streams with every hit released after that. Of course it depends on how people will like the music Käärijä will make from now on, but I'm saying it is too early to draw conclusions quite yet only because people are not listening to CCC quite that much anymore, six months from its peak. Let's give him some time to show what he is about, before judging 😁
They are all the ones that are usually played on the radio, they are not necessarily the most popular, just the most played.
There would be more metal and rock if this list included english songs from FInland, because most of famous Finnish metal bands sing in english. We don't really even listen to most of these songs, but this was probably based on listeners on spotify or youtubeviews and not what we really listen to.
Plenty of people do listen to these songs. They have high statistics for a reason. I think this is just a case of a lot of people living in a bubble when it comes into music taste, where they only listen to a certain type of music while being ignorant of what other people listen to.
Cheek was insanely popular among female listeners, he made very commercial and mainstream songs that often felt really "cheap and cheesy" to many, but sold like hot cakes. Commercially he is easily one of the most successfull Finnish artists domestically, but has almost 0 reach outside of Finland and was not critically very acclaimed.
His music is also very divisive (above reasons) so people usually either absolutely hate it or love it to death, the guy filled stadiums in Finland. However, even though many can't stand his music, there aren't many (if any) people who dislike him as a person
And for Klamydia, yes, yes it is the same thing 😂 they are a punk rock band feom the 80s
I think Cheek was as popular among male listeners too, just the guys are too cool to show the fandom and it was kind of common opinion to talk trash about his music even though many listened to his songs. There is no denying he did what he did very well - just a matter of taste if you like or dislike the type of music and culture. I personally always saw the self irony in his over the top hip hop masculinity. If one doesnt see the irony, you have to be a true hiphop culture fanboy or you will really hate everything his songs and style represents. Same goes with most other hip hop / rap music too. To date I truly believe there are very few successful hip hop / rap artists who don't have some level of self irony in them. The irony transforms many otherwise toxic songs, styles and lyrics to actually smart and thoughtful. Its too bad we have too many especially young people who listen the music literally and we all can see the consequences.
@@tonilaitinen5197 As a man, i can say yeah, he was, but if it took some time, it would surprise me.
I first heard Cheeks music in 2005-2007, and i became a fan, so i bought one of his albums: fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%A4%C3%A4nn%C3%A4n_sivuu (sadly, i don't have this album anymore).
I don't even think it was that much about Cheek or his music, but people just liked the idea that they all like something together. Being a fan of something successfull makes the fans feel like they've succeeded as well. And most people hated who they chose because it was so cheesy bulk music that got unreasonable success.
@@tonilaitinen5197 Yes, many men also listened to him, but on a whole different level than his female fandom who were obsessed with him
@@jattikuukunen That is a very insightful take 👍
Nightwish. Battle Beast Noora Louhimo. Poets of the Fall. Tarja Turunen. Steven Seagulls. Marko Hietala.
Yeah Klamydia as the STD, it's one of the most successful punk-rock bands in Finland. Their lyrics go from humor to really political stuff.
And yeah Robin is pretty much the finnish Justin Bieber. Mean while Cheek did dominate the official lists for long time, now he is "retired".
I believe these are somehow related to the official lists where metal music is just not represented. Metal is huge in Finland.
the clips on this video are way too short and badly cut to get any kind of idea of each song. Even for a finnish person who knows almost all of the songs many of the clips a really random pieces of songs - cut from the middle of sentence / chorus. Works as a list for us who already know the songs, but really not as a representation of finnish music for someone new to the subject.
Robin and Cheek are very popular in these kind of streaming top lists, as their fan base is in 10-30 year olds, whom are also the biggest users of streamed music. If you look, radio play charts, album charts let alone physical album charts, the list is very different.
And yes - metal and rock is big and part of the mainstream in finland, but not quite at the level of finnish schlager or hip hop. I'd say rap/hip hop dominates 0-40 year old demographic and finnish schlager / adult pop dominates in 30- year olds.
There’s also a playlist of songs voted by Finnish people as ”greatests finnish rock songs of all the time” th-cam.com/play/PLfYp28XhjLE1lpGsVw_-O48LbtMr28LKX.html&si=b2oA9ewi3HP6ku67
Check band called Leevi and the leavings. Something everyone will know in finland and good representation of our melancolly melodys. Maustetytöt (Spice girls in finnish) is maybe something to follow with as they are heavily influenced by Leevi and a still active band.
Cheek absolutely dominated the 2010's.
My recommendation would be Amorphis. They are the pioneers of melodic metal and their songs are all inspired by Kalevala, Finnish national epic. Amazing melodies, singer's voice is incredible and lyrics are captivating.
Me too! And Wintersun ❤️🇫🇮
Cheek quit few years ago, but yes, he was quite huge when he was active, somewhere between 1998-2018.
I guess the video was made before Käärijä and Cha Cha Cha, which is now by far the most successful Finnish song ever
And most of these songs are just playback when played live. Robin was a great surprise to see that he doesn't do playback.
This is a great reminder to never listen to hit radio stations. Or, as they say: a billion flies can't be wrong.
I don't know if the list is official anymore today, but it contained good music😊. Käärijän's Cha Cha Cha alone has more than 115K streams on Spotify
As many have already written, a list with more Finnish music in English would be full of metal and heavy music 🤘🖤🤗
5:50 Yep, it is. That is a joke in their band name ^^' , they are Finnish Punk Rock band, and they have done music sense 1988.
So, funny name, that is old joke, which no one in Finland laughs at anymore, Klamydia gets only respect, what they have deserve already many years, and Klamydia is like a legend already, or/and pioneer of Finnish punk rock.
Here is more info in English; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klamydia , and in Finnish: fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klamydia_(yhtye)
This video made me realize we have a horrible taste in music. Disposable, generic, cheesy teen pop and crappy rap for the most part. I haven't heard at least half of the songs in the video.
I have herd of them, but for sure have not cared enough to listen to a single one of them. So much garbage. Easier to find good music from previous decades than recent ones.
Best 80s songs would be interesting, since it was a golden era finnish music.
Just listen to the 1980 music
But we also love metal, so it evens out.
Stupid music . Just money-music (monkey-music).
What kind of music do you like? So that we can suggest you stuff 😊
Also, these songs are not all time most popular songs or best songs in anyway, but popular songs on spotify and I would say for mostly female listeners. For example, out of the top 10, I have heard only one song before since I haven't listened to POP radio in over a decade
Cheek, Robin, Antti Tuisku and Anna Abreu are not artists men usually listen to outside of clubs. They are basically Justin Biebers of Finland in a way, except ofc Abreu, whose music just resonates more with women in general
Actually many of the bigger megahits that most Finns loved were closer to the start of that list, not at the top, where it got very over-represented by one target audience
@Mert Fin... You might be interested to know that the artist at Number 10, Johanna Kurkela, is the wife of Tuomas Holopainen, the keyboardist, composer, and genius poet of Nightwish.
It would be interesting to know who thinks these are the Top 50 most popular songs in Finland. At least not according to Spotify. I saw a comment that these might be the most popular Finnish language ones, but that's not quite true either, at least according to the Spotify lists.
my absolute favourite is leevi & the Leavings
Oh what a set. In order to relate to this kind of music you have to be born several years after 2000. This is completely kids "music". Out of these 50 specimen there are about half a dozen songs that I can tolerate to listen more than once.
Dude! You know Klamydia😂😂😂
Interesting, haven't even heard most of these songs. Klamydia is indeed named after the STD.
Are you even Finnish then?
@@Jantzku Yuup.
Me either, but hey, I've only lived Finland in past 45 years.
Funny to see Klamydia so high on the list. They're a punk band, going strong since the 90's. I remember they have an album named "masturbation without hands".
I as a geneneration z finn in turn have heard all of these songs vut that's bc this list is probably made based on Spotify streams so it's pretty understandable that finns my age know these songs better bc we've lived almost only that time when Spotify has been a thing.
List is pretty off. No metal or rock, none of the older bands or artists like Eppu Normaali, Leevi and the Leavings, Juice Leskinen etc. Seems more like mainstream pop list made in 2000s. Personally only like 3-5 songs out of the whole list I would include on my playlist.
Here's something iconic, that was never number one, but has lasted time. The song is almost 60 years old and it was sung by the composer, because the singer was too busy to come to the recording, but it really is one of the most loved love songs in Finland ever. It's based on a poem, like many songs that Chydenius composed. th-cam.com/video/e0rKzp8o6Do/w-d-xo.html
Crude translation:
"You, you I love, the night presses on my head
A dark wreath so I don't see you.
How do birds fold their wings
How the waters tumble under the rocks
How forests rise with the winds
And the rain from the clouds solidifies into stone
You, you I love, the night presses on my head
A dark wreath so I don't see you.
How does the space scream at me
How the stars scream through my temples
How children cry on the shores of the world
And hearts are fuming over the seas.
You you I love
How your soft hand moves like a boat early
On the morning river"
Im also fairly sure it's Spotify list. Those are like party hits that are included every auto list so that's probably why. Cheek already quit his career. I think his music ain't that good but he was probably the best person brand creator in Finland
I've made an updated list of the 50 most viewed Finnish songs (in any language) on TH-cam: th-cam.com/play/PLPHi7PMIy-pBrcXG9sqq-aihyzTLZLT60.html
Back in the spring of 2021 I did some research on the history of chart music in Finland. The main conclusion is that there is no objective measure of popularity; every measure favors one or more subsets of artists or bands at the expense of others. This is why you need to use multiple measures. But once you do, you can notice some intriguing patterns. I can provide a short version of my (now outdated) research if someone's interested.
I got my first like which I interpret to mean that someone might be interested. So here's the first measure: most records (singles, albums, EPs etc.) sold in Finland over the entire career (main source: IFPI until 2013/2015). This measure favors the peak record sales era of the 1980s/1990s and is no longer in official use. The numbers may seem low, but keep in mind that Finland isn't exactly the most populous country and Finnish isn't exactly the most spoken language out there.
1) Eppu Normaali, punk/rock (1976-): up to 2 million (depending on the source; 1,565,323 using IFPI numbers)
2) Matti ja Teppo, folk/Schlager (1969-): up to 1.5 million / 1,083,749 (IFPI)
3) Agents (originally known as Köyhien ystävät), instrumental/Schlager/rock/blues (1979-): 942,630 (IFPI)
4) Nightwish, folk/metal (1996-): 939,342 (calculated using IFPI numbers)
5) J. Karjalainen, blues/rock/folk/country/soul/pop (1981-): 908,517 (IFPI)
6) Jari Sillanpää, tango/Schlager (1993-): 849,496 (IFPI)
7) Kari Tapio, Schlager/country (1972-2010): 837,306 (Wikipedia & IFPI)
8) Yö, rock/Schlager (1981-2019): 692,828-900,000 depending on the source / 787,738 (IFPI)
9) Vesa-Matti Loiri, jazz/Schlager/pop (1971-2022): 763,794 (IFPI)
10) Kirka, Schlager/pop/rock/R&B/soul/funk/disco/metal (1967-2007): 761,388 (IFPI)
NOTE: the best-selling foreign band is ABBA at 11 and the best-selling foreign (and female) artist is Madonna at 12.
Here's the second measure: most #1 singles (including EPs) in Finland between 1951 and 2020 (sources: IFPI; Wikipedia; Pomus Listatietokanta). This measure favors loyal fanbases and post-1980s due to charts being compiled more often.
1) Apulanta (punk/rock): 21 (including 1 collaboration) between 1996 and 2011
2) Cheek (rap): 17 (including 8 collaborations) between 2007 and 2017
3) JVG (originally known as “Jare & VilleGalle”, rap): 17 (8 collaborations) between 2011 and 2020
4) Nightwish (folk/metal): 14 + 1 for Tarja Turunen + 1 for Tarot = 16 between 1998 and 2012
5) Madonna (FOREIGN): 15 (2 collaborations) between 1986 and 2012
6) Elastinen (rap): 8 solo (6 collaborations) + 3 with Fintelligens (1 collaboration) = 11 between 2000 and 2020
7) Antti Tuisku (pop/dance): 10 (1 collaboration) between 2004 and 2020
8) HIM (rock/metal): 7 + 2 collaborations for Ville Valo = 9 between 1999 and 2008
9) Metallica (FOREIGN): 8 between 1991 and 2008
10) CMX (punk/rock/metal): 7 (1 collaboration) + 1 collaboration for A.W. Yrjänä = 8 between 1997 and 2006
11) Pet Shop Boys (FOREIGN): 7 #1 singles + 2 unofficial #1 hits between 1986 and 1993
12) Eppu Normaali (rock): 7 #1 singles + 2 unofficial #1 hits between 1985 and 2007
13) Children of Bodom (metal): 7 between 1998 and 2008
NOTE: albums have generally outsold singles and were included on the singles chart before separate album charts were released in 1966. Also note that several different singles charts were released in various medias before 1994, but only one of the lists was considered official at any given point in time (the magazine/media that published it also varied).
The third measure is a continuation of the second: most weeks at #1 on the singles chart in Finland between 1951 and 2020. The bias of this measure depends on whether we give earlier era entities the benefit of the doubt, since publishing periods between charts varied between 2-10 weeks until 1994, when lists became weekly. Here, topping 4 weekly lists > 2 fortnights > 1 month ≈ 28 days > 3 weeks. This way the measure is slightly less biased towards the modern era.
1) Apulanta (punk/rock): 21 #1 hits topping the charts for a total of 87 weeks
2) JVG (rap): 17 #1 hits topping the charts for 64 weeks
3) Nightwish (folk/metal): 16 #1 hits topping the charts for 48 weeks
4) Danny (pop/Schlager/rock/disco): 6-7 #1 hits topping the charts for 11-14 months
5) Madonna (FOREIGN): 15 #1 hits topping the charts for 9 fortnights + 23 weeks
6) ABBA (FOREIGN): 5 #1 hits topping the charts for 10 months
7) Cheek (rap): 17 #1 hits topping the charts for 36 weeks
8) Juice Leskinen (rock): 5 #1 hits topping the charts for 8 months + 2 fortnights
9) Tapani Kansa (Schlager/pop/rock/disco/operetta): 4 #1 hits topping the charts for 9-14 months
10) The Beatles (FOREIGN): 5-7 #1 hits topping the charts for 9-11 months
11) Annikki Tähti (Schlager/tango/swing/folk): 3 #1 hits topping the charts for 5 publishing periods = 7½ months
12) Brita Koivunen (Schlager): 3 #1 hits topping the charts for 5 publishing periods = ca. 7½ months
13) HIM (rock/metal): 9 #1 hits topping the charts for 29 weeks
14) Pet Shop Boys (FOREIGN): 7 #1 hits topping the charts for 14 fortnights
15) Irwin Goodman (folk/Schlager/rock/pop): 3-4 #1 hits topping the charts for 7-12 months
16) Louis Armstrong (FOREIGN): 2 #1 hits topping the charts for 3 publishing periods = ca. 6½ months
17) Elastinen (rap): 11 #1 singles topping the charts for 24 weeks
18) Fredi (folk/Schlager/disco): 4 #1 hits topping the charts for 6-10 months
19) Katri Helena (Schlager): 4 #1 hits topping the charts for 6-7 months
NOTE: pre-80s sources at times disagree on what song actually topped the official chart. In some cases, this disagreement also concerns the artists/bands above: we know that one of them topped the chart in a given month, but which one was it? This is why the order above could change considerably depending on the sources.
Fourth measure: most #1 albums in Finland between 1966 and 2020. This measure favors longer careers.
1) Eppu Normaali (punk/rock): 9 studio albums + 3 compilations = 12 #1 albums between 1980 and 2011
2) Nightwish (folk/metal): 7 studio + 2 compilations + 1 live + 2 solo = 12 #1 albums between 2000 and 2020
3) J. Karjalainen (blues/rock/folk/country/soul/pop): 10 studio + 1 compilation = 11 #1 albums between 1986 and 2018
4) Madonna (FOREIGN): 8 studio + 2 compilations + 1 soundtrack = 11 #1 albums between 1986 and 2012
5) Yö (rock/Schlager): 8 studio + 2 compilations + 1 solo = 11 #1 albums between 1983 and 2016
6) Ismo Alanko (punk/rock): 9 studio (2 solo) + 1 compilation + 1 cover = 11 #1 albums between 1980 and 2013
7) Apulanta (punk/rock): 7 studio + 3 compilations = 10 #1 albums between 1997 and 2010
8) Agents (instrumental/Schlager/rock/blues): 7 studio + 2 solo = 9 #1 albums between 1979 and 2019
9) CMX (punk/rock/metal): 8 #1 studio albums between 1998 and 2018
10) Metallica (FOREIGN): 7 studio + 1 cover = 8 #1 albums between 1988 and 2016
11) Kotiteollisuus (rock/metal): 7 #1 studio albums between 2003 and 2018
12) Mokoma (metal): 7 #1 studio albums between 2006 and 2020
13) AC/DC (FOREIGN): 7 #1 studio albums between 1988 and 2020
14) Bruce Springsteen (FOREIGN): 6 studio + 1 compilation = 7 #1 albums between 1987 and 2014
(his best-selling album “Born in the USA” sold double platinum yet never reached #1 in Finland)
15) Ultra Bra/Scandinavian Music Group/Kerkko Koskinen Kollektiivi (pop/rock): 7 #1 studio albums between
1999 and 2014 (3 for Ultra Bra; 3 for Scandinavian Music Group; 1 for Kerkko Koskinen Kollektiivi)
16) Lauri Tähkä & Elonkerjuu (folk/rock): 3 together + 2 each separately = 7 #1 studio albums between 2007 and 2019
The fifth measure is a continuation of the fourth: most weeks at #1 on the albums chart in Finland between 1966 and 2020. The ranking system is the same as in the case of the singles. This measure naturally favors post-1966 artists/bands, but is otherwise less biased than the fourth. And since albums have usually outsold singles, it gives a pretty good idea of the real chart toppers in a given era. But it does ignore some popular albums that didn't reach #1.
1) The Beatles (FOREIGN): 5 studio albums + 1 compilation topping the charts for 13 months + 6 weeks
2) Tom Jones (FOREIGN): 4 studio + 1 cover + 1 live album topping the charts for 13 months + 2 weeks
3) Eppu Normaali (punk/rock): 12 #1 albums topping the charts for 1 month + 47 weeks
4) J. Karjalainen (blues/rock/folk/country/soul/pop): 11 #1 albums topping the charts for 47 weeks
5) Nightwish (folk/metal): 12 #1 albums topping the charts for 40 weeks
6) Madonna (FOREIGN): 11 #1 albums topping the charts for 38 weeks
7) Hector (folk/rock/country): 4 studio albums + 1 live album with Mestarit topping the charts for 7 months + 8 weeks
8) CCR/John Fogerty (FOREIGN): 2 studio + 1 solo = 3 #1 albums topping the charts for 8 months + 1 week
9) Dire Straits (FOREIGN): 3 studio albums + 2 compilations topping the charts for 6 months + 7 weeks
10) Hurriganes/Cisse Häkkinen (rock): 2 studio + 1 live + 1 solo album topping the charts for 7 months + 1 week
11) Bon Jovi (FOREIGN): 4 studio albums + 1 compilation topping the charts for 26 weeks
12) Agents (instrumental/Schlager/rock/blues): 9 #1 albums topping the charts for 1 month + 22 weeks
13) ZZ Top (FOREIGN): 4 studio albums + 1 compilation topping the charts for 1 month + 22 weeks
14) Metallica (FOREIGN): 8 #1 albums topping the charts for 25 weeks
15) Haloo Helsinki!/Ellips (pop/rock): 3 studio + 1 solo album topping the charts for 25 weeks (the band’s
popularity has only grown in the post-record-sales era and even the sales numbers do not seem to be up to date)
16) Kirka (Schlager/pop/rock/R&B/soul/funk/disco/metal): 3 #1 albums topping the charts for 4 months + 9 weeks
17) Kaija Koo (Schlager/pop/rock): 5 studio albums topping the charts for 24 weeks
18) David Bowie (FOREIGN): 3 studio + 1 cover album topping the charts for 5 months + 4 weeks
19) Antti Tuisku (pop/dance): 6 studio albums topping the charts for 23 weeks
NOTE: while the pop/rock group Haloo Helsinki! failed to make the cut on the singles charts, they have broken the record of most consecutive #1 radio hits twice: 4 between 2011 and 2012, and 6 between 2014 and 2016 - not to mention “Vapaus käteen jää” (which peaked at #2) is 13th on the all-time domestic singles sales list.
Best of my song 49, 47, 46, 45, 44, 42, 40, 37, 36, 35, 34, 33, 30, 29, 27, 26, 23, 22, 20, 17, 12, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
really need version with chorus with these music reactions
NIGHTWISH had 13 number 1 singles in Finland - back when such things actually meant something.
They also have more hits on YT & Spotify than all of these artists - by a long way.
Checked the original video to see from the description on how the list was gathered - it looks like there was no real statistical method or a reliable source behind the list. I think the youtuber just gathered sogs he or she liked and thought were popular (probably a Cheek fan, eh), and then checked the (Spotify) stats for those to come up with an order for the chosen songs. The author even added a comment giving an additional list of songs that he/she had forgotten from the "top 50".
So it sounds like this list really is just as meaningless as it appeared to be at first glance.
Yeas Klamydia is std in Finland too, also very good and popular band. Kind of punk spirit music and lyrics me think. 😁👍
I love your videos bro!❤
I suggest for you to try how you like a finnish band called Poets of the Fall. Any song will do cause they're all great.
I hadn't heard most of these songs at all, and definitely not many completely. I don't really use Spotify.
I think this list is very outdated since it doesnt even have ikuinen vappu which was the most streamed finnish song until this year when Käärijäs CHA CHA CHA came out which has more than 114 million plays on spotify
This list is probably just from 2010's. There should be newer ones like Bess and Erika Vikman if Spotify-list. And where are old ones: even Eppu Normaali has several songs over 10 million streams. And all the songs in english.... Quite a shitty list.
Cheek made massive bank and then retired in his mid 30s five years ago. He was selling out stadiums when he retired. Really nice guy. A couple of years ago I spoke with him briefly on the phone in relation to my work. Not really a fan of his kind of music, though. Haloo Helsinki is a great band, you should check out some of their songs.
That is streaming, which means it is biased towards teens.. heavily. I doubt anyone over 30 listens to Robin.
Definitely popular songs all, but you can't really say that those are the most popular songs in Finland just based on those YT views. In all it's difficult to say which music is the most popular in Finland. And those were songs in Finnish and also on those songs some portion of the views comes from outside Finland. Most viewed Finnish song on YT might be Axel Thesleff's 'Bad Karma' with over 600 million (combined) views and most Finns probably haven't even heard of him or that song.
*Finnish artists/bands I HIGHLY recommend : Nightwish, ApocalypticA, THE 69 EYES, H.I.M., The Rasmus, LORDI, Korpiklaani, Negative, Reckless Love, Children of Bodom, SonatA ArcticA, Amorphis, Sunrise Avenue,....* 🎵🎸💿🎵🔥❤🔥🔥
I read the comments on this original video, its made from popular finnish language youtube videos views. I dont like any of those 😏 I like Kaija Koo🤘this had one of her songs but it was with Cheek...
I'm wondering who has made this list. Most I haven't even heard and I really don't like cheek or many others here on the list.
Klamydia is one of the best here as is Haloo Helsinki! too.
I feel like these are TH-cam views, thete would definitely be more older stuff orherwise.
Biggest artists nowadays are probably rap and hiphop like ibe, JVG, Gettomasa. Pop like Behm, Kuumaa. Bands like Haloo Helsinki
Quite quickly climb on certain song . Little too fast transission from song to song on my taste to get feel from it and i am from finland ❤
or The Crash?
Cheek he was teen rapper who had luck got good manager and money. he makes few songs every 3-5 years so when he makes new teens go and hype it in sosial media. he allso was lucky and got job in television host and judge in Finish got talent show not so good songs but allmost must hear them in Finland when they are new and teens hype those songs
New metal albums nearly all got top 1-3 on physical chart like lp, cd.
Mmm.. Yeh, personally I would say this list is a top 50 songs i wouldn't listen to even if I was paid to. 🤣
Has to be musicvideo streams on youtube.
3 good picks in this list are... Klamydia/Arttu Wiskari/Jenni Vartiainen... Congratulations for the winners :) !..!(-.-)!..!
And you should also listen to the finnish heavy metal medley by the northern kings 18.10.2017 ❤
Personally, I probably like Cheek the most, but since he quit, I've listened the most (if you don't count Käärijä) maybe Spekti, Portion Boys... I don't know what I listen to the most about Finnish music, 'cause I listen to so much foreign music, eg. Imagine Dragons.
th-cam.com/video/K9682WvW2aU/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared Next Anneli Mattila - Suojaan😊
And then is heavy and punk witch i love
you should definitely listen to Popeda❤
Yeah Robin is the Finnish Justin Bieber
Nightwish would dominate top 10 if there was english language songs here 😁
Im finnish and i was waiting for sandstorm to be nunber 1 lmao
Never heard of 99% of these!
This list is definitely not the top 50 Finnish songs of all time. Maybe top youtube wievs or something, but there is plenty of older artists and song that are not in youtube that were super popular in their time, and even now every Finnish people know them.
Oh the sad state of music these days...
Come to think of it, oh the sad state of mainstream music of pretty much all ages.
5:53 yes it is! the band’s name is chlamydia, like the std 😅
Yes. Robin is thefinnish biber. No cap.
4:10 the Jonne Aaron song tries hard not to sound like Self Control.
i think this list is 5-10 y old
Robin is the Justin Bieber of Finland but a bit younger and thus especially his older songs are more tame. And I bet this list was only songs in Finnish because there was no Nightwish or HIM
Cheek is retired now. These songs are from the same year or couple years apart. I would not say they are the most popular songs 'ever'. In this time period, yes. Except Klamydia. It was big in the 90's.
IDK, before 90's, Finnish music was in the hands of few record labels. Apulanta and other bands started to make their own labels to make music, 'cos the old farts did not want anything to do with music that was not tango, polka or Finnish iskelmä.
Eppu Normaali. Nothing comes close to their album sales.
Jari Sillanpää has the most sold album, but he has ruined his career and reputation.
These are probably the most popular songs yeah, but Cheek or Robin arent that popular anymore tbh, years back they were really popular.
these songs are definitely based on music video views, not listens and very 2000s and 2010s
Pissikset,really?! 😂
Do reaction for Korelon - Cancel. Sick beat
I think that metal music is very if not most popular genre in Finland, but it is kind of divided 🤔. Like in these lists there is metal music and then there is all the other music. Metal is a different animal I guess 🤘🥴🤘
This list is specifically songs IN FINNISH, though the title sure ain't gonna tell ya that.
Next reaction sentenced ??
Always a very... "life-affirming" choice. :)
Omg. :D Lissut pissikset. that song is old.
The clips need to be 3 seconds longer.
Period.
Cheek is the next president of Finland if he only wanted to.
This was an "interesting" top 50. Yes, those artists were extremely popular at that time, but saying that Cheek should have about ten songs out of 50 is simply ridiculous.
Also, this top 50 says nothing about the most popular songs in Finland. So many bands are missing - Eppu Normaali, Apulanta, PMMP, all metal bands, etcetera.
If this was most streams then cha cha cha by käärijä should be 1st with over 100 million streams on spotify
As finnish i can confirm barely anyone listens to robin and cheek nowadays. People mainly hate them for being insanenly garbage now. Petri Nygård is pretty famous and loved right now, atleast in here where i live.
Very much not factual information
I'm Finnish and I haven't heard half of these
Edit: also, all these songs seem to be 10+ years old
Was it a music chart???
Like in any country, all the good songs have been made so long time ago that the kids today have no idea. And because they've grown with this shit their brains have been injured permanently and they'll never will understand what good music sounds like. No autotune, dynamics, huh!
There should be nightwish, him, the rasmus and lordi they have lot more streams than these songs in hier.
I never watch these Finnish top music lists since my taste is totally different from the main stream Finnish listener. I disliked or down right hated every song on this list. 😅 Metal and rock all the way. 🤘
To each their own, but I can't stand most of this what I call "radio music". This is why I never listen to radio. Yes, this is probably what teenagers/young people listen to. I listen mainly to different types of metal music and different electronic genres, like psy trance, goa trance, hardcore, hardstyle, industrial electro, aggrotech etc., none of which they play on radio.
Yes, but it is alist of popular songs (by spotify?), not the best songs. So kinda makes sense
You know there's more than 1 radio channel to listen to, right?
Do kids even know who Cheek is?
😂
I dont know where this list is from. These are definately popular artists and songs, but it seemed very one sided genre-wise. Only pop and rap. Maybe someone knows where this is taken from?
Amount of streams is such an odd way of seeing who's the most popular. It's more like who's got the most fanatic fans. Back when CDs and cassettes were a thing, they didn't count how many times you listened to it, so obviously music from that era can't compete with these numbers.
Unfortunately Robin and Cheek had a pretty insane run. Probably says something about finnish taste in music in the 2000s-2010s😂😂
I already knew this list will not have a single song that I play, like ever and I’m only 26. Even the more younger generation makes better shit than 90% of this list😂
Listen to Leevi and the leavings or eppu normaali
Mostly party music in this list.
This looks more like someones spotify list for a lousy party, lol.. TOP 50 songs i wouldn't listen, even if i was paid to xD (okay couple good ones but missing 90% of the real TOP songs)
