CatCat - Bye Bye Baby HQ

CatCat - Bye Bye Baby (CD version arranged by K. Salli & P. Lowland)
The Finnish entry placing 22nd in the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest in Dublin. Composed by K. Salli & M. Lehtonen. Lyrics also by K. Salli & M. Lehtonen.
The song is sung from the perspective of a woman ending a relationship because of her lover's infidelity. She claims that she will not cry and seems generally positive about her future prospects. Despite all the high hopes the song gathered only 11 points on the big night. Much of the criticism propelled to the unimpressive orchestral arrangement by the conductor Olli Ahvenlahti, the misjudged decision not to use any backing tape, the weird and cheap looking outfits designed and manufactured at the YLE wardrobe and the backing dancers' akward choreography. The outfits were designed by Eeva Kähärä. The duo has later admitted they were embarrassed for the clothing as soon as they saw it. The outfits and the performance became a notorious camp phenomena and every now and then it appears in some form in the media. Interestingly the outfits still exist at the YLE wardrobe and the girls fit to them. The duo has offered to buy them, but YLE has refused to sell. YLE rents the outfits occasionally for the duo.
Bye bye baby, baby goodbye
Though I'll be alone, I shall go away
Bye bye baby, baby goodbye
This is the end, but I won't cry

BEST EUROVISION SONG EVER!!!!!

[@sebastiaanm9122]

Totally underrated :( Amazing song

[@teemujussila]

Unfortunately live performance was terrible. Finns got high hopes on that year, but nope 22nd place. I like of course studio version which is used in this video.

[@rodrisifuentes4592]

Increíble canción pero lo que se escucha es la versión de estudio, de menor calidad pero buena fue la del UMK, y luego está la fea versión del ESC 1994

[@virpitolonen5276]

Tämä on jytypaukku. Hieno esitys.

[@MegaPellepop]

Absolutely wonderful! Master piece! Finland 1 billion points!

[@OonaEskeli]

Ai saatana että tämä on hyvä!

[@lyle.mp4]

2:08 - 2:28 The most epic middle 8 ever performed in Eurovision - more chord progressions like this please!! (Ik it's 10 bars cause of the suspension) Then leading into a sudden modulation for the final chorus. The geek in me is overjoyed 😍😍 (Copied from my comment on the orchestrated version)

[@despairleyy]

so underrated

BYE BYE BABY BABY GOODBYE❤❤

[@user-km2nk6tj8n]

Fantastic rockabilly rhytm in Finnish language! Epic atmosphere, strong emotions!

[@QuadMochaMatti]

🤔 Rockabilly? Hmmm. This ain't like any rockabilly I've ever heard. Apparently, the names for a significant genre originating in America have experienced some misappropriation.

This is dubbed over the track isn't it? The audio is not the live performance is it?

[@jannepori]

The audio is from CD version.

[@jannepori]

Kuka se YLE:n puvustaja oli joka suunnitteli nämä asut? Muistaako joku?

[@jannepori]

Nyt se selvisi: Eeva Kähärä. Eli hänelle suuri kiitos näistä asuista! Mieleenpainuvat....

[@jannepori]

Pilasit esityksen. Kiitos siitä.

What is this

[@gullstenmarkku]

There were emotions heated by electrical appliances down the road and racism found its way and disappeared into a fatal new scene.

[@Vamosalaxx]

Kovaa vääntöä..😆

Great song, I love it! But silly choreography and really silly outfits...
