Our ESC 2010 rally is over:)

Eläkeläiset ended up to be one of the three participants on the super finals at the Finnish ESC contest and ended up to be the third. Thank you for all supporters, support groups and voters. Instead of five handsome men Finnish voters decided to send two charming ladies to Oslo. With accordion on stage and a song with nice humppa rhythm. All ten thumbs up for Kuunkuiskaajat from the band and a lot more from the crew.

Enjoy the two final performances on the same YouTube clip:

To support humppa Polish Humppa Team made a hilarious translation of our song Hulluna humpasta. Vocals have been recorded in one take, with one microphone for everyone and no overdubs. Ashka made the video. Priceless!

Enjoy Przed granicą weź w baniaque! (YouTube link)  and keep on humppa!

Added 4.1.2010: Moods during final days was followed by Ajankohtainen kakkonen. All in Finnish. (YouTube link)

No live feed from ESC Finnish finals

There is no international internet live feed from Finnish ESC finals on saturday. You must wait someone to load it to youtube.

Humppabingo game

While waiting for the next humppa shows you can play Humppabingo (pdf file 1,2 MB) by yourself or with your friends if you happen to have some. Just download the file, cut, fold and glue the humppabingo cube, make some coffee or tea, bake a cake and play.

Humppavision continues

We will have a new gig next week (30.1.) at the Finnish Eurovision Song Contest finals. Short show with only one song: Hulluna humpasta.

See our semifinal performance from last friday 22.1.2010 at YouTube. A lot of humppa fans were attending the event and the feeling was great.

Do not forget to enjoy the official sing along and karaoke videos.

Get more fun from the karaoke version by Polish Humppa Team. Its not a surprise that these guys made it first. We are waiting for YOUR version!
