ESC Reaction _ Windows95man - No Rules /// Music Producer's Analysis
Finland !!! What the what?! You guys have a lovely sense of humor and musicality. This Eurovision entry is just wild and unexpected. The finnish music is known for its excellence, but i never imagined to have such a visual display from you.
I think this is my candidate for winning in 2024, but who knows... the voting at Eurovision is just wild.
What do you think? I really laughed my guts off and the song sticked in my head for good!

Windows95man is actually a DJ, who has performed in parties, birthdays, festivals and such. When Käärijä last year had his homecoming gig, Windows95man was the warm-up act. Windows95man has worked with that name for 10 years, already, and the very short denim shorts are his trademark. So this is an imaginary tale, how he was born from a denim egg, laid by a denim bird (here played by his vocalist, Henri, notice his jacket that looks a bit like the plumage of a bird). As a new-born he is naked, and doesn't know that he is supposed to wear trousers, so the cameramen and everybody on the stage do everything to block the view to his crotch. Finally, he gets his famous magic shorts, and the party starts. This has also references to the Finnish national epic Kalevala, where the whole world and the universe was born from an egg. The denim boots that Henri wears, are covered with denim that is woven like the traditional Finnish footwear "virsut", which originally were made of birch bark. Then there is of course the message of the lyrics, that could be summarised "be what you are, and don't think about what other people say". So as you see, they have actually put quite a lot of thought to this performance. As a side plot the producer comes to show him the rules, which he throws away, because "No Rules". They also made a music video, which has a quite different plot.
Yeah, maybe check their music video and Windows tax party :) nice taxpayer song from your project
Wow, great insight!
This is nice😊
🤦♂
The other singer is Henri Piispanen Voice actorsinger-songwriterpresenter. Piispanen has voiced Finnish dubs of television shows and films such as Lewis in Meet the Robinsons, Hiro Hamada in Big Hero 6, Adrien Agreste in Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir, Chase in PAW Patrol and Lloyd Garmadon in Ninjago.
WTF = Welcome to Finland! 😂😂😂
T shirts with this should be done
😂 I allways thought it was Why The Face
That genuine laughter tells it all. That is the meaning and purpose of this art performance.
The Best reaction this year!!! Thank you❤😂greetings from Finland🎉
Thank you! 😃
Your reaction was mine while watching it live on tv. They were the best at UMK, I hope they will do better at Eurovision than what many people on internet are saying.
The vocals had improved immensely between umk and the esc pre party in london. 👌
The Best reaction to this song! I like your laught, so genuine
Wow, thank you!
You laughed! Thats mission accomplished 😂❤
This is just genius conceptual art by the Windows95Man Teemu Keisteri who is also an artist, disguised in and tributed to the 1990’s music. The denim egg refers to the Finnish paganism - the world was born out of an eagle’s egg. Henri is the eagle. Teemu, the Superhero-to-be Windows95Man, is born half-naked and without his shorts which later descend from heaven and make him the superman he will be. In the end, the eagle Henri and the superhero,the Windows95Man rejoice and dance together. Brilliant 😊! Thanks again for the great review, like with so many other videos!
Love your reaction 😄😄
I love you reaction! I think world needs this kind of goofiness right now. I hope they do well.
Great reaction to great song!
Thank you!!!
Glad you liked the song, Aragorn.
Windows95man is a dj, who does his own shows. Henri, the singer is just a part of this ESC act, he is a singer in another band called Pasa. Henri is a professional singer from a Pop & Jazz Conservatory, with vocational education in music. Patrick already gave you an explanation of the performance. They literally blow the roof off the Areena 😊
Henri is also a voice actor in many tv-series, animations and movies. He started that career already in age of 4, very talented in that too.
@@mantailuaa yes, I later did remember this, thanks for adding.
Summer-fashion here in Finland.
BTW, Microsoft is fine with the logo (it is so old and not valid any more), but European Broadcasting Union doesn't allow logos, so this is the version of the video where the logos have been pixelated. Theemu now has a T-shirt and a cap with the logos pixelated. Microsoft actually published a picture of W95M with only the logo visible, and the rest of the image pixelated 😂. Also, there have been plenty of women in Eurovision with pretty revealing dresses, but no men in nude underpants yet though. It will be interesting to see what happens!
Damn, I love this
Not nude just simple underpants: Let3 last year had their fair share 😂
@@Eva-mp7xg Exactly. Nude coloured underpants (nude is the colour, not saying he was nude). And yes, it is bizarre people are complaining about this, when Let3 had quite a show last year!
I hope they censor the unterpants too as part of the performance, it would leave everyone with the impression of him really being naked on stage. That would be hilarious!
Greetings from Finland! I voted for them. I also liked Sara Siipola, but this UMk-performance did it for me. I also 💚 the happy shamelessnes of it and the 90s beat makes it impossible for me not to move. Happy to hear that you like it, it seems like people here on youtube don’t get it, but I def. stand by this and I really hope they make it to the final.
So good!
At this moment as a Finn I feel proud. And I am almost 50 so was young in the 90s. So it wa like a nostalgic moment. Your reaction was great!
Hell yeah 🎉😂❤! This is PURE entertainment, and I love it ❤❤. These days it's all about the show, and These guys nail it 💪. Way to go Finland 🇫🇮🎶🥰💪🫶😁!!!
Your reaction to is absolutely THE BEST I've seen :'D I don't even know how many times I've already watched this!
This was the rules enabled version
I love this! 😂❤
😂😂😂 the very best show on earth
❤️🇫🇮
OMG! I just discovered you a few days ago due to these ESC reactions. Your laughter is contagious. Thank you for making me laugh so much. Literally crying/laughing here, I don't know anymore.
🇫🇮❤️
If i may correct your maths: it's 2024, so looking back to 1994 (30 years back) is the same as looking back to 1964 from 1994. Edit: great reaction, good to see you're amused by Finland once again!
Big brain time
According to the Finnish Kalevala epic, man was born from a bird's egg
That finnish accent..oh dear god!😂 Yours is much nicer. Greetings from Finland!
