      I like that little detail because it may be sending an underlying message. The song is about getting drunk and partying, but the manic smiles of the dancers may be hinting that such a lifestyle can make a person "insane" if overdone. Perhaps this song is a poor man's descent into alcoholism rather than the "fun party anthem" it seems on the surface.

      I see this as a critique to the Finnish stereotype that we need alcohol to own the dancefloor. He sings how he has this side who wants to dance but his grumpy "Finnish" side won't let that happen.
      It's only after few drinks that he feels confident enough to head to the dancefloor and let loose. The message is actually quite sad if you think about it. Even though the song is the greatest party ever😅

    This performance deserved to be on Eurovision stage! Käärijä will be remembered in Eurovision history just like Go_A, Lordi, Konstrakta, Måneskin, Hatari and many others. Good luck Finland! 💚🇫🇮

      Finland is the worst country to make Eueovision music. Lordi was at right time and right place. I wish we will be one of tbe lasts, thats what we deserve 🇫🇮.

      @@elberryful it is probably impossible but I hope she stays in the semifinal (maybe because people will think she will win no matter what and because of this the majority will vote for their second favorite and not for her) so that most votes from the nordic countries go to Finland (I know there is still Norway) and that he wins
