Niin kaunis on taivas - Finland 1996 - Eurovision songs with live ochestra 

One of the most underrated songs of the whole Eurovision contest. Yet one of the best ones in my eyes.

Beautiful And Lovely Song!! 🎵🎶 12 Points From Greece!! 🇬🇷❤️🇫🇮

How could this lovely, happy song get such a poor result? Finland was definitely victimised that year. This should have been in the top 5. Hyvin tehty, Suomi! 🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮

Best last place ever... The result is impossible to understand! Suomi torilla tavataan! Greetings from Turkey.

What a great song, 12 points from Denmark

12 points from Ireland 🇮🇪 👏

Probably Finland's most undeserved last place.

I rewatched the entire competition and it was my second place after Ireland. I was shocked to see it come last. Incredibly beautiful song.

This song deserved so much more points, love it❤️

Theres nothing to be ashamed here She did great

Finnish language is beautiful

Cómo pudo quedar última esta maravilla de canción. A veces la historia de Eurovisión nos sorprende tan tristemente, pero gracias a RU-vid podemos darle el valor que se merecieron en su momento

this song is great and beautiful and jasmine is absolutely adorable just look at her

I watched the contest live in 1996 and this was my favourite Astonished that it came last Suomi 12 points

So charming! Sometimes ESC results are a joke.

yes, great song, shame it came last

I love it so much! ❤

What's interesting was that this song almost did not qualify. Finland was tied with Hungary for 22nd place, both with 26 points. At the time, the rule was the country that received the highest number of top votes was placed higher. Greece gave Finland it's highest score of 8 points, while Romania gave Hungary their highest score of 7 points and therefore Finland qualified. Had it been today's rules, Hungary would have qualified as 9 countries voted for the song while only 4 voted for Finland. The whole pre-qualifying round was just a mess as it was either music video or live performances of varying qualities. Honestly, If there was a year to start semi-finals it should have been 1996. They had 30 countries and could have done a semi-final similar to the system used from 2004-2007 where the top 10 countries in 1995 auto-qualified, with the remaining 20 went to the semi-final with the top 13 qualifying to the final. I would have chosen Finland over Hungary. It's a great song, not a winner but much better than some of the other songs that qualified and totally bombed live (*cough* *cough* Spain *cough).

very good I'm listening to this song in the car greetings from TR❤

My winner. Beautiful 😍

So charming, love this!

This is so UNDERRATED

We here in Ireland love this song and it should have finished in the top 5 at least, great song finland 🇮🇪 🇫🇮

My favourite from 96' ❤

10 Jasmin niin kaunis on taivas suomen 90 luvun paras euroviisu edeustussävelmä on suosikki euroviisu vielä 2024 hyvä jasmin❤❤❤❤❤

This is so undeserved last place, but at the time got the most points for that so props, should have been top 10

In that year my songs fav. are:Belgium,UK,Norway,Ireland and Finland.❤❤❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

I haven't heard other countries' songs for the 1996 Eurovision, but in my opinion, this doesn't sound like something that would deserve the absolute last place. Sure, I'm Finnish myself so I might be kinda biased, but sometimes I'm in the mood to listen to some more "traditional" stuff exactly like this although I hadn't even been born in the 1900s.

I really like the chords in this song

For the people wondering why it came last, at 2:25 she sings during the interlude

Bravo d'être audible après une telle masterclass

10 jasmin niin kaunis on taivas tosi hyvä 1996 suomen edustus sävelmä kyllä euroviisuihin hyvä romani laulaja sinne pitää lähettää❤❤❤❤❤😅

This song didn't technically come last. That year they had an untelevised preliminary round that six countries where eliminated from, so the country that actually came last that year was Romania

Great Gypsy .Song.. love it love from france

Really nice song.

Wonderful entry!!!

Beatiful voice and beatiful song

This beautiful song came last????? Huge crime like 2010.

Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan Luonas olla tahdon vaan Joka sekunnin, jonka kanssas olla saan Joka minuutin, tunnen yhä varmemmin Rakkaus ikuinen, kohtalomme yhteinen Se uni suloinen, kuin on Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan Luonas olla tahdon vaan Joka sekunnin, jonka luonas olla saan Joka minuutin, tunnen yhä paremmin Voima tunteiden, meille sykkii rakkauden Se uni suloinen kuin uni on, on Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan Luonas olla tahdon vaan Niin kaunis on taivas, kaunis on maa Me tähtien loisteessa yö kuljetaan Rannalle kun käsikkäin saavutaan Luonas olla tahdon vaan Luonas olla tahdon vaan Luonas olla tahdon vaan

One of the very best 🌞

1 of my all time favorite!!! x

This is so cute. :3 From beginning to end. =D

Jasmine got robbed, this was one of Finland's best ever

Love this. I seem to remember Norway giving this a good score, a few points from another country but sadly nobody else voting for it

I liked this song! The Dutch comment (from Netherlands or Northern part of Belgium?) ...

What a beautiful song. Why did it get last?

Pieni lipsahdus taitaa tapahtua kappaleen aikana, mutta ymmärrettävää jännittävässä tilanteessa. Huippu kappale.

12 points.

🌻

last place???? WTF?? GREAT SONG!

2:22 maybe this is the reason this song came last... Nice song btw...

Do we know good song? My niece 3 years and I knew it at once. Niin kaunis on taivas, sing Jasmine!

🇪🇪🇫🇮❤

As we germans sing buy nothing from taiwan..a great song

jasmine was a princess in oslo 1996.

Extremely undeserved last place, just a bit ahead of its time (it's aged very well) and I think coming right after Ireland in the running order killed it -this couldn't be much more different to The Voice and the contrast was just too stark for the juries.

I’m definitely not a fan of Finnish songs in this contest, but this is one of the very few occasions I have to say that Finland was underrated. It wasn’t the best song in 1996, but definitely NOT the worst. I think it’s Finland’s best last placed song.

Да, очень красиво:))) Таня, значит...)

🎶🎵👍

the name of the girl singing the accompanying vocals, first to the camera?

This is great. Better than the Irish dross that won!

There was a blunder.

The only way that ppl outside Finland are gonna know what Finnish sounds like is listening to Eurovision. Except that nowadays they only sing in English. How sad how crap.

Как этой песне можно было дать последнее место, ещё и на родине обсуждать какая, мол, песня плохая.

helsinki 1997.

If you sing in a language nobody understands you need a very good melody. But this doesn´t mean that good melodies win.

Perhaps not a Great song, but last??

"jumbo-Jasmine tanssi koko yön"

Who's here after watching Tom Scott's video?

She doesnt look like 19 yo tho.....lol

It's Dutch :P

Speed 1.25 :)

I'm from Finland and i hate this -_-

Suomi, this song is not good.
