Eurovision fans all have one thing to say after Finland's electric performance

After their electric performance at Eurovision 2023, Finland has proved why they are the favourites to win. Käärijä performed Cha Cha Cha and viewers were all left saying the same thing.

Eurovision viewers are calling for Finland to win after being impressed by Käärijä's performance. One said: "FINLAND JUST BLEW THE ROOF OFF LIVERPOOL. #Eurovision" and another added: Finland showing everyone how #Eurovision is done!"

A third said: "If Finland don't at least win the public vote then something is wrong #Eurovision" And: "Finland to win. End the show now. No one can compete with that". Another said: "Finland to win #Eurovision".

Rapper, singer, and songwriter Käärijä has a reputation for energetic, shirtless performances described by the man himself as: “It’s crazy, it’s party!” Hailing from Vantaa in Finland, Käärijä has been making music since 2014 – he released his debut album Fantastista in 2020.

For the experimental rapper, it’s all about defying genres. In his Eurovision entry Cha Cha Cha, he fuses rap, electronic music, metal, and schlager, with a performance that incorporates ballroom dancing, a neon green bolero jacket, and lots and lots of wooden pallets.

He wrote the song with two friends: multi-platinum-selling producer and songwriter Johannes ‘Kiro’ Naukkarinen, and producer Aleksi Nurmi.

Mae Muller is representing the UK at Eurovision 2023 with her song I Wrote a Song. The 25-year-old singer and songwriter from London and pens honest, sassy pop music.
