My favourite song. This song was one of the reasons to visit Finland and to learn some Finish. 12 points from Berlin. Great singer, great country, great people.
Isnt it amazing when you see singers from northern european countrys so many years after there eurovision performance how amazing they still look,that lack of sun at certain times of the year has its advantages! This song despite being from 1985 is so ahead of its time,even if this revamped version was in today I dont think it would sound all that dated
I love u Sonja from Greece. Sweden sends any stupid song top5 finland sends a diamond just 9rh. Soooooo unfair. Finland and Portugal the most underrated countries
Kaupungissa on yö, en silti tähtiä nää It's night in the city but I don't see any stars Ei tähdet tuhannet tuikikkaan A thousand stars aren't shining Ne taakse harmaiden harsojen jää They're left behind a grey veil Kaupungissa on yö, puistoon kanssasi jäin It's night in the city, I stayed in the park with you Sä seisot edessäin täynnä toivoa You're standing in front me full of hope Ja silmäsi kertovat näin And your eyes are telling me this Eläköön elämä ja yö Long live life and the night Eläköön tumma taivas ja tähtien vyö Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars Toivo kanssani ettei tähti tähteä lyö Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star Sitä sielujen sympatiaa The feeling of sympathy Josta isoisä kertoi sitä tarvitsee maa Which grandfather told of is what the earth needs Jotta maailman lapset tähtiä katsella saa So that the children of the world can watch the stars Kaupungissa on yö, sun tähtisilmäsi nään It's night in the city, I see your starry eyes Ja hyvän kaverin kainaloon Under a good friends arm Mä työnnän piiloon tän pörröisen pään I'll hide my furry head Mä olen onnellinen, kun sun seuraasi jäin I am happy because I stayed with you Sä seisot edessäin täynnä toivoa You're standing in front of me full of hope Ja silmäsi kertovat näin And your eyes are telling me this Eläköön elämä ja yö Long live life and the night Eläköön tumma taivas ja tähtien vyö Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars Toivo kanssani ettei tähti tähteä lyö Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star Sitä sielujen sympatiaa The feeling of sympathy Josta isoisä kertoi sitä tarvitsee maa Which grandfather told of is what the earth needs Jotta maailman lapset tähtiä katsella saa So that the children of the world can watch the stars Täynnä toivoa tänne jäin I stayed here full of hope Kun silmäsi kertovan näin Because your eyes are telling me this Eläköön elämä ja yö Long live life and the night Eläköön tumma taivas ja tähtien vyö Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars Toivo kanssani ettei tähti tähteä lyö Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star Sitä sielujen sympatiaa The feeling of sympathy Josta isoisä kertoi sitä tarvitsee maa Which grandfather told of is what the earth needs Jotta maailman lapset tähtiä katsella saa So that the children of the world can watch the stars
I think the Finnish lyrics are a bit convoluted because I think they tried so hard to make rhymes. Fore example what does it mean "toivo kanssani, ettei tähti tähteä lyö"? I've never heard the expression of stars hitting each others.
Long live life It's night in the city but I don't see any stars A thousand stars aren't shining They're left behind a grey veil It's night in the city, I stayed in the park with you You're standing in front me full of hope And your eyes are telling me this
Long live life and the night Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star The feeling of sympathy Which grandfather told of is what the earth needs So that the children of the world can watch the stars
It's night in the city, I see your starry eyes Under a good friends arm I'll hide my furry head I am happy because I stayed with you You're standing in front of me full of hope And your eyes are telling me this

This was from ”Finnish LOVE” music entertainment show where ordinary people can tell their story and how certain song has been meaningful to them. Very nice concept.
Real winner of 1985 without any doubt, by a mile. One of the best of all time. Cheers from Serbia.
Fantastic performance remember watching her that evening in1985 she looks as good now as she did then 12 points from Scotland
Fantastic song and Sonja still sings and looks great.
Wine gets better with age. So does Sonja Lumme. Just as amazing as back in 1985. Love it!!
One of the best songs of Eurovision Song Contest 1985. Simply excellent...
My favourite song. This song was one of the reasons to visit Finland and to learn some Finish. 12 points from Berlin. Great singer, great country, great people.
Really. This song can be such impact!! Wow!! Great for you :)!!!
A schlager song made you interested of visiting Finland? A country that stood up to both Nazists and Communists in the second world war. Good on you.

Kaupungissa on yö, en silti tähtiä nää It's night in the city but I don't see any stars
Ei tähdet tuhannet tuikikkaan A thousand stars aren't shining
Ne taakse harmaiden harsojen jää They're left behind a grey veil
Kaupungissa on yö, puistoon kanssasi jäin It's night in the city, I stayed in the park with you
Sä seisot edessäin täynnä toivoa You're standing in front me full of hope
Ja silmäsi kertovat näin And your eyes are telling me this
Eläköön elämä ja yö Long live life and the night
Eläköön tumma taivas ja tähtien vyö Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars
Toivo kanssani ettei tähti tähteä lyö Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star
Sitä sielujen sympatiaa The feeling of sympathy
Josta isoisä kertoi sitä tarvitsee maa Which grandfather told of is what the earth needs
Jotta maailman lapset tähtiä katsella saa So that the children of the world can watch the stars
Kaupungissa on yö, sun tähtisilmäsi nään It's night in the city, I see your starry eyes
Ja hyvän kaverin kainaloon Under a good friends arm
Mä työnnän piiloon tän pörröisen pään I'll hide my furry head
Mä olen onnellinen, kun sun seuraasi jäin I am happy because I stayed with you
Sä seisot edessäin täynnä toivoa You're standing in front of me full of hope
Ja silmäsi kertovat näin And your eyes are telling me this
Eläköön elämä ja yö Long live life and the night
Eläköön tumma taivas ja tähtien vyö Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars

Sitä sielujen sympatiaa The feeling of sympathy
Josta isoisä kertoi sitä tarvitsee maa Which grandfather told of is what the earth needs
Jotta maailman lapset tähtiä katsella saa So that the children of the world can watch the stars
Täynnä toivoa tänne jäin I stayed here full of hope
Kun silmäsi kertovan näin Because your eyes are telling me this
Eläköön elämä ja yö Long live life and the night
Eläköön tumma taivas ja tähtien vyö Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars
Toivo kanssani ettei tähti tähteä lyö Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star
Sitä sielujen sympatiaa The feeling of sympathy

Long live life
It's night in the city but I don't see any stars
A thousand stars aren't shining
They're left behind a grey veil
It's night in the city, I stayed in the park with you
You're standing in front me full of hope
And your eyes are telling me this
Long live life and the night
Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars
Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star
The feeling of sympathy
Which grandfather told of is what the earth needs

It's night in the city, I see your starry eyes
Under a good friends arm
I'll hide my furry head
I am happy because I stayed with you
You're standing in front of me full of hope
And your eyes are telling me this
Long live life and the night
Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars
Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star
The feeling of sympathy

I stayed here full of hope
Because your eyes are telling me this
Long live life and the night
Long live the dark sky and the belt of stars
Wish like I do that a star doesn't hit a star
The feeling of sympathy

Please tell me this was from a Eurovision special?? If only we had regard for our past entries here in the UK!
This was from ”Finnish LOVE” music entertainment show where ordinary people can tell their story and how certain song has been meaningful to them. Very nice concept.
Helvetin hyvin toteutettu äänet kun taustalaulajat kuuluu paremmin kuin itse laulaja, bravo Yle! Helppo tehä mitä tykkää kun varma tulo.
Ei tämä ole YLEn oma tuotanto vaan osto ja mun mielestä originaalissakin taustat kuuluu hyvin suhteessa 1. ääneen. Posin kautta! :)
Panisin
Gayt on innoissaan
is this a gay concert
