This is what the world needs more of; real people, real collaboration, real passion, real friendship, real having fun together, real creativity, that is where the true genius is, that is able to unite people all over the world, even though they don't have a clue about the language, but they can feel the vibe and get the energy. This is why this was and will be the people's song.
What a lovely guy. I'm glad Kaarija got to work with lovely people. I'd love if he could come to the US.
Would love to see Americans embrace him ❤❤
What a down to earth guy
Finns usually are.
The song is mind-blowingly good. It doesn’t often happen that you hear a song and love it instantly, and then listen to it on repeat for months. Cha cha cha has all the ingredients for a perfect song.
I'm so happy that Käärijä is working with such a nice team he deserves the best💚thanks for the interview!
I don't think these guys really understand what they have achieved....but like he said it is the song and the guy who made it so amazing...Cha Cha Cha and Käärijä. But great interview, thank you...kiitos ❤️💚💃
I agree. I'm not sure they still understand what they achieved. 😄 But hopefully they will get lots of offers now. 🙂 After the ice hall gig I really started to notice the team behind Käärijä. So I hope we get more interviews with the team. 😊 (With good interviewers, not main stream media because their interviews usually suck). 😄
What a great guy! I really liked how he praised Jere for the success of the performance 😃 A real friend that everyone needs.
They deserve the world and more, and I'm confident they got it! 🏆💚
It’s so nice to see this song writer and producer feel that “anything is possible” after the success of Finland in Eurovision. Eurovision’s magic is all encompassing. Good luck and thanks for the detailed interview!
This is such an amazing interview! Thank you guys! Now I know more about Cha Cha Cha history and Kiro is sweet person! Sending love from Estonia!
Hyvä Kiro! 🤟🏻 Niin siistii kuulla tästä koko säädöstä ja biisin synnystä sun näkökulmasta. Ja mahtavaa, miten arvostavasti te koko tiimi puhutte aina toisistanne. Noi orgaanisen yhteistyön vibat pääty biisiin ja lavalle ja lopulta kaikkialle. Kiinnostavaa nähdä, mitä te kaikki teette jatkossa. Ja missä ja miten. Käärijän suussa suomen kieli tekee perin ihmeellisii juttuja 🔥, ja toivon ainoastaan, et hän aina pitää siitä kii.
The Dallas Stars are in The National Hockey League and they made it to the semi-finals. During their games they would play Cha Cha Cha to get the crowd excited and to get them to sing along. Here’s to hoping that Cha Cha Cha will join We Will Rock You as an American and global sports anthem!
We all know Finland actually won ❤
very interesting interview. Thank you kiro for producing something that will go down in history.
I thought I'd help people out who don't know what some of the names mean: Jere is Käärijä. Allu is Aleksi Nurmi, Käärijä's main producer. Interesting interview, thanks.
Thank you for watching and explaining 🎉👏
@@Wiwibloggs You're welcome, and thanks again for interviewing someone from Käärijä's team.
Kiitos for creating a legendary piece of music 💚
Well spoken, Kiro. Once again I feel like I completely agree with all that has been said here. Jere is great person, and surrounded with so many great people. Damn, all this greatness around here, I'm starting to feel overwhelmed 😵💫😄
Thank you for this interview! Nice to hear the producer’s thoughts and experience.
What a great interview!
What a lovely interview. I get the feeling that everyone working with Käärijä is a lovely honest open person. So proud to be Finnish💚
My niece want Käärijä to come to sweden, so maybe a tour? For sure Sweden must invite him to perform at the next eurovision as a interval act
Sweden could do better, and ask him and Loreen to be the co-presenters.
Nope nope and no way
Super interview, thank you very much both!
This was such an interesting interview! 💚
Wow! I have been thinking for a long time how they made the song. Finally got the answer! ❤
a bit busy rn so can't watch but im very excited to get to it later! commenting for the algorithm

Thank you @williamleeadams for this interview behind the limelights. Appreciate both of you for this chat. 💚💓
That’s so lovely of you to say. Thank you!
Jyväskylä mainittu torilla tavataan!🇫🇮
now that weeks have past I can say, the most listened to song for me from ESC is surprisingly Ireland. I know, live performance was a fail, but the I really like to re-listen to it. contrary to other ESC songs, that made it to the top 5 in the final
Weird place to come share this info. 😄
@@k.l.7788 I did it on purpose. if you can't see it immediately, than I am fine with it. means, iI could share my view on the fakt that Finnland only came second without being offensive
That song was one of the most boring songs....
@@helky8 which song? and wich version where? out of the 37? the studio version? just trying to evaluate the seriousity of this statement
@@nursen2106 Song is poor, no matter which version. And the performance in semifinal was not good at all... Sure it wasn’t worst of those songs but not really memorable either.
