One of the most underrated songs of the whole Eurovision contest. Yet one of the best ones in my eyes.
What a great song, 12 points from Denmark
How could this lovely, happy song get such a poor result? Finland was definitely victimised that year. This should have been in the top 5. Hyvin tehty, Suomi! 🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮
Best last place ever... The result is impossible to understand!
Suomi torilla tavataan!
Greetings from Turkey.
1988 entry was also one of those good songs that placed last
12 points from Ireland 🇮🇪 👏
Theres nothing to be ashamed here
She did great
this song is great and beautiful and jasmine is absolutely adorable just look at her
Cómo pudo quedar última esta maravilla de canción. A veces la historia de Eurovisión nos sorprende tan tristemente, pero gracias a TH-cam podemos darle el valor que se merecieron en su momento
The melody was nice but the song was a bit monotonous
I rewatched the entire competition and it was my second place after Ireland. I was shocked to see it come last. Incredibly beautiful song.
Hakikaten niye sonuncu olmuş? Bu arada şarkıcı çingeneymiş hatta Türkiye'de de yaşamış.
@@turklerinortaktarihi9182 that means she is Finnish gypsy, Finnish Kale. They are good singers by tradition.
What meen cale?
@@TiiroyGXim sorry there was actually typo. They are Finnish Kale. It's a group of romani people and they live in Finland and Sweden. They are one of the few different groups of romani people of the world. I think the biggest group is called Roma, Finnish Kales are a tiny group compared to them.
Probably Finland's most undeserved last place.
Nope, THE most undeserved last place. I don't know what possessed the juries, it's such a beautiful song, and so different to the typical ballads and schlager we normally have at Eurovision.
@@rhysepoos The song is nice, but she was a problem. Bad singing, creepy voice and she even made a mistake when she once continued singing after refrain when there should be an instrumental part.
I dont agree on the creepy voice or anything she had a great voice. But there was indeed a small mistake but its not guaranteed if the jury even noticed because they dont understand the lyrics. And she continued the song to the end like a pro. Didnt deserve last place.
@@ELvisLiveS-ok6mq Her singing technique is pretty bad. And I don't understand the lyrics but I've still easily noticed her mistake.
So charming! Sometimes ESC results are a joke.
yes, great song, shame it came last
YES ! She was cutie !
Finnish language is beautiful
Agreed
Suomi on niin kaunis kieli. ❤
So charming, love this!
My winner. Beautiful 😍
This song deserved so much more points, love it❤️
I love it so much! ❤
Beatiful voice and beatiful song
very good I'm listening to this song in the car greetings from TR❤
Aynen tam arabada dinlemelik şarkı
What's interesting was that this song almost did not qualify. Finland was tied with Hungary for 22nd place, both with 26 points. At the time, the rule was the country that received the highest number of top votes was placed higher. Greece gave Finland it's highest score of 8 points, while Romania gave Hungary their highest score of 7 points and therefore Finland qualified. Had it been today's rules, Hungary would have qualified as 9 countries voted for the song while only 4 voted for Finland. The whole pre-qualifying round was just a mess as it was either music video or live performances of varying qualities. Honestly, If there was a year to start semi-finals it should have been 1996.
They had 30 countries and could have done a semi-final similar to the system used from 2004-2007 where the top 10 countries in 1995 auto-qualified, with the remaining 20 went to the semi-final with the top 13 qualifying to the final.
I would have chosen Finland over Hungary. It's a great song, not a winner but much better than some of the other songs that qualified and totally bombed live (*cough* *cough* Spain *cough).
Spain sent one of the worst entries ever!!!!
The studio version is actually not bad. But had there been a semifinal in 1996 they wouldn't have gone through for sure!
Was Spain meant to be a joke entry, as that’s the impression I got...
@@JeSuisRene Nope, that guy was serious and pretty much ruined the Latin American boom that happened in the United States in the late 90s that Spain was riding on.
Actually, not really as Spain was pretty much hit miss throughout the 90s.
@@Botafogoplayground TBH, the studio version was alright. However, that performance was a complete disaster and can be seen as one of the worst.
Really nice song.
This is so undeserved last place, but at the time got the most points for that so props, should have been top 10
I really like the chords in this song
This is so UNDERRATED
Great Gypsy .Song.. love it love from france
We here in Ireland love this song and it should have finished in the top 5 at least, great song finland 🇮🇪 🇫🇮
Are you death and blind?
You must be kidding😅This is one of the most embarrassing moments in the history of Finland😂
@@tonieskelinen4426 oh really , we didn't know that here ,. It's a catchy song , good luck in the euro
@@tonieskelinen4426 I don't think this one was that embarassing, even though she made a little slip. I'm mostly embarassed about the Finnish performance of 1982.
1 of my all time favorite!!! x
Bravo d'être audible après une telle masterclass
Wonderful entry!!!
This song didn't technically come last.
That year they had an untelevised preliminary round that six countries where eliminated from, so the country that actually came last that year was Romania
I know, but Finland still didn’t deserve last in the actual contest.
This beautiful song came last????? Huge crime like 2010.
2010?
2009
2010, when Finland with great song didn't qualify to the final
@@bluesky8797 oh okay
"Työlki Ellää" is good song too.👍
I haven't heard other countries' songs for the 1996 Eurovision, but in my opinion, this doesn't sound like something that would deserve the absolute last place. Sure, I'm Finnish myself so I might be kinda biased, but sometimes I'm in the mood to listen to some more "traditional" stuff exactly like this although I hadn't even been born in the 1900s.
In that year my songs fav. are:Belgium,UK,Norway,Ireland and Finland.❤❤❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
One of the very best 🌞
last place???? WTF??
GREAT SONG!
RuTestigo cos jury are deaf assholes
Blame the tasteless juries.
Jasmine got robbed, this was one of Finland's best ever
For the people wondering why it came last, at 2:25 she sings during the interlude
Maybe it was a stylistic "Mamas and Papas" slip. A Fin I was talking to on hols said this song still gets radio play with it left in.
Love this. I seem to remember Norway giving this a good score, a few points from another country but sadly nobody else voting for it
7 points from Iceland and 2 points from Norway. Unfortunately not more...
Scandimafia
What a beautiful song. Why did it get last?
Because Europe was tasteless. There were way worse entries that year that deserved last place instead🙄
This is so cute. :3 From beginning to end. =D
As we germans sing buy nothing from taiwan..a great song
12 points.
Do we know good song? My niece 3 years and I knew it at once. Niin kaunis on taivas, sing Jasmine!
Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa
Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan
Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan
Luonas olla tahdon vaan
Joka sekunnin, jonka kanssas olla saan
Joka minuutin, tunnen yhä varmemmin
Rakkaus ikuinen, kohtalomme yhteinen
Se uni suloinen, kuin on
Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa
Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan
Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan
Luonas olla tahdon vaan
Joka sekunnin, jonka luonas olla saan
Joka minuutin, tunnen yhä paremmin
Voima tunteiden, meille sykkii rakkauden
Se uni suloinen kuin uni on, on
Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa
Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan
Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan
Luonas olla tahdon vaan
Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa
Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan
Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan
Luonas olla tahdon vaan
Luonas olla tahdon vaan
Luonas olla tahdon vaan
🇪🇪🇫🇮❤
Pieni lipsahdus taitaa tapahtua kappaleen aikana, mutta ymmärrettävää jännittävässä tilanteessa. Huippu kappale.
pikku vikoja😅❤
🌻
I liked this song!
The Dutch comment (from Netherlands or Northern part of Belgium?) ...
There was a blunder.
🎶🎵👍
2:22 maybe this is the reason this song came last...
Nice song btw...
jury voted on the basis of the Dress Rehearsal performance, so this would not have influenced anything
No its because it was like 20 years behind time
She was 23 In pre qualifying round
@@barbyzupancic People always say this about every song that doesn't sound like any of the American commercial pop genres. Music is art, and good art is timeless, not some exercise in conformity where people are supposed to do whatever 'Simon says' each year.
Parasta suomesta 1990 luvulla euroviisuihin jasmine niin kaunis on taivas
Да, очень красиво:))) Таня, значит...)
the name of the girl singing the accompanying vocals, first to the camera?
The taller girl is Hanna-Riika Siitonen
@@iceblueeyes9356 tnx
jasmine was a princess in oslo 1996.
Extremely undeserved last place, just a bit ahead of its time (it's aged very well) and I think coming right after Ireland in the running order killed it -this couldn't be much more different to The Voice and the contrast was just too stark for the juries.
Как этой песне можно было дать последнее место, ещё и на родине обсуждать какая, мол, песня плохая.
I’m definitely not a fan of Finnish songs in this contest, but this is one of the very few occasions I have to say that Finland was underrated. It wasn’t the best song in 1996, but definitely NOT the worst. I think it’s Finland’s best last placed song.
helsinki 1997.
The only way that ppl outside Finland are gonna know what Finnish sounds like is listening to Eurovision. Except that nowadays they only sing in English. How sad how crap.
This is great. Better than the Irish dross that won!
She doesnt look like 19 yo tho.....lol
Perhaps not a Great song, but last??
It's Dutch :P
No!! Finnish
@@Gera1713 I think he meant the commentary.
Who's here after watching Tom Scott's video?
Speed 1.25 :)
Genius!
"jumbo-Jasmine tanssi koko yön"
If you sing in a language nobody understands you need a very good melody. But this doesn´t mean that good melodies win.
I'm from Finland and i hate this -_-
Why? Because it sounds old-fashioned and folksy? I love it. Finnish is such a beautiful language!
Then why are you here?
I have heard many other Finns disapprove of this song for some reason, but it sounds beautiful to me, especially when I adjust the tempo to 25% faster 😅. Similarly, I like the last Netherlands 🇳🇱 ESC entry that was sung in Dutch “Ik Ben Verliefd (sha-La-Lie)” and many people from Netherlands don’t like that one which sounds traditionally Dutch. So you’re not alone. I DO like it though, sorry!
Suomi, this song is not good.
