Many foreigners don't realize just how deeply connected old school Finnish culture is to Latin music! :) Especially Spain and Italy, with a strong Tango culture from Argentina as well. I live in a small village called Eräjärvi, which is famous for it's vintage dance hall (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dance_hall), the old latino-influenced music is therefore a very important part of my life :) Dance halls are a big part of Finnish culture that many tourists never discover, sadly!
This made me realise how much I love the great finnish classics from the 60's, 70's and 80's! At one point of my life I used to listen to that kind of music with my dad, we shared some good moments. Maybe I should go for a visit to listen to some music at some point again 🤔 That video was a good compilation, but I wish it had a bit longer snippets of the songs.
Quite a few of those songs are Finnish versions of foreign songs. Difficult to give a good view of the diversity of music performed and the evolution of music though the decades by listing one song from each year, from the same artists, from just few genres and only in Finnish. In general, what was trending elsewhere, was trending also in Finland. Added with the local quirks and versions.
In javelin throw he won Olympic gold medal in 1948, in 1946 he was third in European championships. He has also two medals in archery, gold in 1958 World championships and silver 1955 World championships. He was in 22 movies and recorded 8 albums.
Italian songs were such a big thing back in the days. Italodisco was even a term. And its easier for you to say the Finnish words, as both languages are spelled pretty much the same.
So many good songs! Only songs that have Finnish lyrics. For sure there would be HIM, Nightwish, The Rasmus, Bomfunk MC`s etc. if English lyrics were included...
Besame Mucho is a Spanish (Mexican) song from 1940. It is one of the most often recorded songs in the history of music. The Beatles used to play the hell out of it in their heyday. It goes sth like 'Kiss me, kiss me a lot, like this was our last night, kiss me because I'm afraid of losing you . . .' My father's dancing music, like Olavi Virta's tangos. The version by Andrea Bocelli is really effective. In Finnish, the one by Juha Eirto is very good. I recommend for another fantastic singer Georg Ots, from Estonia, who sang e.g. in Finnish.
These clips were only Finnish language ones and only one genre ”popular” radio friendly music ”iskelmä” in Finnish. There are similar videos in yt of rock, pop etc. different genres too.
Sadly metal is completely absent from this list, even though they are super influential in Finnish music and outsell all the other genres 100 to nil. There is nothing that comes even close to Nightwish on this list Also, many of the older songs are Finnish covers of international hits since that was how music was made back then. Famous artists only performed songs from composers/writers, but hardly ever made the songs themselves. For example, almost all the hits of Elvis were not written or originally sung by him
Vuonna 84 is in year 85 they sing year 1985 🇫🇮😂 and paula koivuniemi aikuinen nainen its adult woman and she sing women🇫🇮 mamba vielä on kesää jäljellä its still have summer left best song ever its have playt radio last 20+ years every fall
Way too short samples. Should have been at least 15 to 20 seconds to be able to actually hear more than 1 bar of music. If you wonder if there was Finnish music before 1950, well, yes there was. _Dallapé_ orchestra was formed in 1925 and it's still going strong. It had many vocalists like _Georg Malmstén_ and his brother _Eugen. Olavi Virta_ made his biggest records in the 1950s, but he started his career already in the 1930s. _Henry Theel_ was hugely popular tango and schlager singer during the war. Also one of the biggest stars in the war era, not only in Finland but Sweden too, was _Harmony_ _Sisters_ , which was like Finnish version of The Boswell Sisters.
you should check out HIM if you wanna hear more finnish rock from the 2000's! join me in death and wings of a butterfly are probably their most famous songs
Yes she is singing about same Cicciolina
ahaha
@@mauronicolo89 and bimbo sing it for real (woman power or something) woman power maybe in her ass.
Olavi Virta - Hopeinen Kuu is a finnish cover version of the song called Guarda Che Luna
That is right, Buscaglione! I haven't heard that song since i was a child
That said, Besame Mucho was also a very popular song in Finland back in the day.

It was so much fun to watching this react video! Thank u, u r great!😎🇫🇮
Tapio Rautavaara, singer, actor and an Olympic athlete. By the way, Cicciolina is Hungarian.
In javelin throw he won Olympic gold medal in 1948, in 1946 he was third in European championships. He has also two medals in archery, gold in 1958 World championships and silver 1955 World championships. He was in 22 movies and recorded 8 albums.

Of fuck cause those samples were so short. Liked Your reactions and comments. 🇫🇮Here
I think someone said they used such short samples to dodge copyright issues.
I think that its like 30sec before Copyrights, but..
So many good songs! Only songs that have Finnish lyrics. For sure there would be HIM, Nightwish, The Rasmus, Bomfunk MC`s etc. if English lyrics were included...
Can you react to: Suomirokin evoluutio - 100 suomirokkibiisiä 1 otto (Finnish rock evolution - 100 Finnish rock songs 1 take) by Suomirokkikoulu?
That Irwin Goodman song has a good title - "Ei tippa tapa - ja ämpäriin ei huku" - "Drop won't kill you - and a bucketful won't drown you either".
2 hours prior had wished you'd react to this one 😂😂
I thought i heard a finnish voice saying "Mauro you must react to this video" !

I would like to say react to them all, but I will say that choose the ones that catched your interest and react ti them :D
Old Finnish schlagers are largely indeed translated from international hits 😄
I am enjoying watching these. You seem to enjoy very much as well doing these reacting videos❤😊😂 keep doing these man !!
Somehow very fitting here for a song about being Finnish being the cover of an Italian song. lol
I’m happy how a foreigner likes our country’s music❤️. Love from finland🇫🇮
4:55 I love both versions of this song, even though I grew up listening to the finnish version a lot with my grandma
2:50 Finlands entry for Eurovision Song Contest 1962, ended on the 7th place. ❤
These clips were only Finnish language ones and only one genre ”popular” radio friendly music ”iskelmä” in Finnish. There are similar videos in yt of rock, pop etc. different genres too.
I think you should react to Kuuma Kesä by Popeda. Finnish 80s rock classic.
Thought to recommend this:
By Vesa-Matti Loiri (Vesku) thesame man who acts to be the character Uuno Turhapuro, Jean-Pierre Kusela - Naurava kulkuri
Keep on coming! Out of curiosity, how did you ended up to listen Finnish music? :)
Gösta is eternal. You should do Leevi and the Leavings music reactions.

"Cicciolina" would have been Finland's representative in 2020 Eurovision but contest was cancelled because the Covid.
Olavi Virta, The King of Tango!
Fredi. A song puhu hiljaa rakkaudesta, It's straight from the godfather movie's theme music
There was Maledetta Primavera there as well
I lpve that song, that's why the tune sounded familiar! Can you tell me the name of the finnish song?
@@mauronicolo89 It is called Aikuinen Nainen by Paula Koivuniemi
Reacting to the evolution of finnish rock eould be interesting
Hi from Finland. next. Poets of The Fall live. Battle beast Noora Louhimo . Nightwish Live.Käärijä X Erika Vikman - Ruoska Live umk 2024.
Way too short samples. Should have been at least 15 to 20 seconds to be able to actually hear more than 1 bar of music.

this was only music in finnish language so that's why it didn't have as much rock music
you should check out HIM if you wanna hear more finnish rock from the 2000's! join me in death and wings of a butterfly are probably their most famous songs
Yes my man . She is singing about that Cicciolina. That was a song that she made to get to Eurovision. Didn't win the vote. 😉
Hello! Can you please react to Namewee's new song "When I'm Gone"?
I will react to it in my new channel :
ruclips.net/channel/UCeaXoR39ZvFapMRIdStYowg
This is quite a narrow look at Finnish music. At least most of the great rock, metal and rap songs were missing.
Contemporary music sucks ass, prove me wrong.
