I'm not an overly emotional person but for some reason I almost tear up when I watch this. Something about electronic music being accepted and even put up there as a point of national pride.
Just to remind you the event was free and organized by Finnish national television so basically the goverment funded a party with darude playing meme songs
@@jaskajokunen1245 Well there’s no doubt that the song was played partly because it’s a famous meme song from Finland. It’s a banger is what I’m also saying
I was there live and this was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen in Finland. And they had the biggest firework show in history I guess! And never before I had seen 100 000 finnish people gathered together in so small area
What's better and explosive song to start a new year than this ..Man really. Without being there also I can feel the vibe and the energy of the surrounding at that moment..👌❤️❤️❤️❤️🇮🇳
Darude - Sandstorm was my first real music experience, when I hear the first time I was like wtf? Never could imagine eletronic music with so much feeling like that
One and only one hell off a new year celebration..Damn, the lightings, exlosions, bea, music...Cant imagine the feel and the energy after watching, and if had been there, that would be a damn experience👍❤️❤️🇮🇳
It is a tradition now that every year at this time period I have to watch this one video. See you all next year with hopefully the world in a better place.
I love the finnish anthem! It sounds so powerful and majestic

This should happen every day at midnight

Right
Seeing that clock count down to midnight sync perfectly with the drop got me hyped af
Nowhere near perfect sync, it's almost a second before (start of the drop)

I wish they would have done this again especially when new decade just started. It would've been so awesome.
The crowd is huge!!! The Fireworks are Awesome!! And the Light show is unreal!!
Metal bands, Nokia phones and Darude - Sandstorm are reasons enough to love Finland.
Happy 100 years to Finalnd, and of course to the tune of Darude Sandstorm! What a way to show for it. :P
Still the best New Year's opening in history! Finland and their national anthem are great!
I’ve never seen Finns standing so close to each other
Hassan Sora it is truly quite rare
Concerts and queues, there are the exceptions.
Stuff like this makes you wish you had a time machine. Would have been great to experience this with everyone in Helsinki!

Probably not cause he makes money every time it's played
I would be lol
Yeah definitely
Is it possible to be tired of this song? I can hear it over and over again.
Tired of listening to it ? you bet. tired of the money it’s still bringing in ? hell no
I would love to go to Finland, always something cool happening there!
This is literally the only cool thing that has happened in the last 7 years
I am overwhelmingly happy seeing this and I don’t know why
I’ve used TH-cam since 2008 and have left no more than 10 comments. This is one of those - it’s just beautiful!
This is why i love Finland so much
After the year we had, let’s go into 2021 like this!!!!
This aged well
Why did TH-cam recommend this at the end of August? Why did I get the chills watching it?
This would have been amazing to see! Probably the best song to start 2017!
