The competition for the first place was mainly between Swedish Loreen and Finnish singer Käärijä. The artist overtook the competitor by 57 points, but if the decision about the victory depended solely on the viewers of the competition, Jere Pöyhönen and his “Cha Cha Cha” would win.
Eurovision 2023. Finland – Polish text: what does Käärijä sing about?
The single was released on January 17, 2023 and won the local qualifiers for the competition. As Käärijä himself said, the strength of him and his song is not in exceptional skills, but in originality. “UMK (Uuden Musiikin Kilpailu – a music competition organized by the Finnish public broadcaster – editor’s note) has never heard such a song before and has not seen such a performance, you can go far, even if you are not the most talented singer or rapper” – quoted the Finnish artist Helsingin Sanomat portal.
Due to the fact that Käärijä decided to sing at Eurovision 2023 in his native language, the lyrics of “Cha Cha Cha” were understood by far fewer listeners than if he translated the words into English. If you are curious what Fin sang about during the competition, we publish the Polish translation of the song below.
This tiring week and long days are behind us
Now it’s just a bar and a pina colada on my mind
The night is still young, you can drink a little
I have to destroy the ice shell
I have drinks in both hands
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
I don’t think about tomorrow when I’m holding a pint of beer
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
I want to mess with my head and free myself from worries
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
And I won’t stop until I can sit in a chair
I had a couple of pina coladas
However, the sour grimace did not disappear from my face
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
The night is still young, you can drink a little
I have to destroy the ice shell
The dance floor is calling me, nothing is blocking me anymore
I’m comin’ like ha, ha, ha
I have drinks in both hands
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
I don’t think about tomorrow when I’m holding a pint of beer
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
I want to mess with my head and free myself from worries
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
And I won’t stop until I can sit in a chair
I’m going to the park
Like ha ha ha
And the world is not so scary to me anymore
Like ha ha ha
When I spill champagne
Ha, ha, ha, I squint one eye
It’s hard to say anything when the other side takes over
Ha, ha, ha, I usually keep an eye out
But today I am that guy, that guy
I’m going to the park
Like ha ha ha
And the world is not so scary to me anymore
Like ha ha ha
When I spill champagne
Like ha ha ha
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Like ha ha ha
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
