Käärijä interview - YLE news clip 30.9.2023 (ENG SUBS)

[@zoesouth7287]

His smile isn't always reaching his eyes any longer, and he looks exhausted. I'd even sacrifice my European tour tickets if it meant he could look after himself and get the break he needs. Touring is brutal, and the odd day out here and there doesn't cut it.

[@MoonRock9.]

Hope he finds balance and takes care of himself first

[@marittamustonen-smith7333]

We love you Käärijä. Be well be strong and get time out💚💚💚💚💚🇫🇮

[@AudreyFavre]

Thank you for the subs! Can't help thinking last time he mentioned he wanted to live somewhere, the city of Vantaa stepped up and offered him a flat. How about someone offering him that cabin on the beach now 😊

[@Secondwillbefirst]

I really feel sorry for him and I was afraid that this would happen to him😢 This went too fast, too far... although it was all he dreamed of before the ESC started. But no money could buy us healthiness and I wish they would give him more time to recover. Of course everyone of us likes to see and hear him - I'm also impatiently waiting for every new video. But he is just a human being, a very kind and sweet one❤... he does not deserve this

My dear ❤ everybody needs a vacation

[@nian60]

Thanks again to you and king krisu for the translation. 🤗 How adorable Käärijä was here. 🥰 Interesting that he worries about having enough energy. I think he needs to start thinking of himself as an athlete. He needs a coach and a massage therapist to follow him around on tour. I have worried about him since early in the summer, when I saw the intense tour schedule. 52 gigs during the summer, and apparently 40 this autumn. 😵‍💫 I just hope he can find the energy somehow just to get through it. And maybe in the future, pace himself a bit better.

[@kaarijasupporters]

He himself said that he's become greedy. I think he meant that he has taken almost all the gigs he can get. And now he realises what he has done and is a bit worried and scared. I've been worried for a long time too and hearing him say it, does not ease my mind one bit. I just hope he doesn't burn out... 💔

[@nian60]

@@kaarijasupporters Yeah. 😞 I hope that he can manage well enough to not burn out. I also hope he takes all or most of January off. He needs a longer uninterrupted break.

[@kaarijasupporters]

@@nian60 I'm manifesting a 2 month gig break in the beginning of next year.

[@nian60]

@@kaarijasupporters That sounds like a good idea. 🙂

[@aurorafrestadius]

@@kaarijasupporters Usually it is almost necessary to work a little bit over your own capacity to actually see what is too much for you. I also hope that after this year he will have the wisdom and also courage to place his wellbeing first!

😢😢❤❤

[@Qstmrk0]

Ty you do the better job ❤❤

[@quasar5538]

I'm worried for him 💔💚💚🙏

[@Talvi_Sota]

He should take a break. Its not good if he forces hon self to do it.

[@kimslice9993]

He looks drained 😢 poor guy he’s not used to all the fame and obsession not to mention that brutal schedule for gigs!! 😢 they need to be more flexible with him with his days off He’s going to burn himself out and it will affect his mental health 😔 I’m worried about him

[@kaarijasupporters]

Yes, I'm worried too. Now even more when he himself is worried. 💔

[@Balnazzardi]

Ye its utterly crazy to do that many performances and long tours in row....just 50 in Finland alone throughout the summer and some 50 more for rest of the year, including tour in Europe...

[@buttershy_]

i hope he knows he can take a break and even disappear from the public for as long as he wants. we all love him but it's true that he's done so so much for his fans and he doesn't owe us anything. if i were him i just could not do what he has been doing, i would disintegrate!! i'm so grateful for him and that's why i would like it if he had a quiet period for his own sake :')

[@regitzeillum6713]

Oh, I don’t like this. If he’s really not feeling good, he should take a break.

[@nian60]

One thing I wonder about is the autumn tour schedule. It's supposed to be 40 gigs. But when I count the listed gigs that his tour manager etc. posts, I only count 39 gigs. Have they missed adding a gig somewhere? 🤔 That list doesn't have the new Berlin venue, Huxley's, on it either. It was supposed to have been updated on 29 Sept. But clearly it wasn't if Huxley's is not there.

[@nian60]

Can nobody else see this post? 😞

[@kaarijasupporters]

@@nian60 I can see it, but I have no idea of anything 😂

[@nian60]

@@kaarijasupporters Aha, OK. At least you can see it, thanks. 🙂

[@PiaMäki-n1b]

​@@nian60He got few private gigs too🤔

[@nian60]

@@PiaMäki-n1b Yes, the private gigs are counted in the 39. Maybe there is a 40th private gig missing from the list? I don't know.
