Bye bye baby - Finland 1994 - Eurovision songs with live orchestra 

I've always quite liked this version.

You are not.

spot on. ....

Precisely

Amen! 🇫🇮 miles worse than the national final version.

At the time, it was one of The favorites to win In the Eurovision too!

Laughable conductor/arranger Olli Ahvenlahti, which is most to blame: should use tape (was allowed), instead lazy lame orchestra arrangement, which not suitable at all for this kind of fast tempo song. :)

​​​@@Bandido894maybe it is suitable, but the arrangemwnt was lame

Dimi Vall and Bosnia-Herzegovina gave this 1 point

Of course

Who did they give 12 points to? (Joke of the century)

@@tee8839 mmmm.... it must be Turkey! (another joke)

Y’all need to stop being so butthurt and whiny about what Greece gives to Cyprus and complain about what Scandinavia does every year and the same countries win again and again even they don’t deserve the win at all,but let me guess you are from those countries lol,that’s the real joke here.

Yeah, it is w weird bridge alright... Just wondered the same, F# to C... and would expect it to go to C# or some complementary but it takes a tritone jump to modulate it. A friend of mine wrote it.. well, friend is maybe too big of a word but small town has small music circles. Did a few recordings in his studio, he was a good man. Died a few years ago from cancer.

@@squidcaps4308 That's very true! Although I think the fact that its quite jarring works very well given the context of the lyrics (Not that I speak Finnish but google translate is a great tool!) Wonderful that you knew the composer and I'm sorry to hear about his loss 😔

Actually it is my winner !

yes they are sisters. virpi is proffessor of music and katja is master of music. Very talent girls.

Germany used backing track, which sounded much better. Finnish conductor didn't understand to use it, instead lazy arrangement for local orchestra. I bet then Fin would be much higher. :)

@@Bandido894 To not use a backing track was not the decision of Finnish conductor (O. Ahvenlahti) but of the composer duo; the producer of the record version is my source of information for this: all-conductors-of-eurovision.blogspot.com/1998/05/olli-ahvenlahti.html

Virpi (the lady in the green dress) and their costumier designed the costumes but virpi said later that they weren't supposed to look like that.

I much prefer the arrangement used in the Finnish national final.

So beautiful women but in silly outfits

But it does completely change the record. The actual track is more italodisco which is part of the appeal of the song and gives it a lift that is a bit missing from the orchestral live version. The national final version is much better, its an example of a song really not translating too well to esc, although mainly due to costumes and staging.

Actually, Ahvenlahti said that he preferred the nf arrangement. But it depends on the two arrangers which is Lowland and Salli. Ahvenlahti, cant do anything about it, he has no choice but to go with it For thr nf arrangement, Ahvenlahti arranged the song. But in the Eurovision final (which was rearranged by Lowland and Salli), he was intrigued how the arrangement turned out

Haha! But true. 😂

That’s what caught my eye

Yeah, there's a lot of worse dressing participants than Barbara in eurovision history, even in the same year. Some notable examples are: Luxembourg 1992, Slovenia 1993, United Kingdom 1984, Norway 1984, and of course Finland 1994. But even though, Eurovision is a SONG contest and not a fashion contest, so I don't think that one should rate the contestants by their clothes.

@@surprisedadrianlol True

They are real sisters.

@@kaisavolanen4462 Toi tyyppi kommentoi jokasen viisuis olleen naisartistin videoon kuinka kuumia ne on ollu.

@@FannomacritaireSuomi Okei, olishan se pitänyt arvata 🙄🙄😂

Had some leftover coke

Hahahahaaa haaa....😂​@@Thrna_1

Thank you. Your country gave this song 10 points

Remember there was Kirka (Fin1984, died 2007) in Greek list with this song ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w8ZUcr7Jdhc.html Should have been ESC with the song!

So do you mean the whole song except for the title? 🤣

Good riddance Sir Terry has passed away. He was so rude towards Eurovision. What was that of the "Eurovision Handicap"? Please!!!

@@danieljano88 He also pronounced the Finnish conductor's name in a Swedish accent...

In their MOTHER´S underwear!

@@danieljano88 Just to be clear - you are celebrating Terry Wogan's death?... Take a deep breath and reconsider your values.

An investigation needed

i like rock & roll kids but bye bye baby is better

The Greeks should be applauded.

Maybe it was other way around. All those points directed to Ireland was really meant for FINLAND, but hosts just mixed it up xD

Yes they are sisters.

Yes they are, and their surname is Kätkä, pronounced catca. If you add the T you get the Finnish plural, i.e Kätkät, or the Kätkä sisters, pronounced Catcat.

Very shit opinion. fucking dick

your comment is embarrassing.

Jim Forss Knob

Finnish.......Finnish is a good language, as good as English

Jim Forss ......not crap. Nice language. ..Finnish

The problem is not the language but the quality of this song is so poor!
