Along with their music I'm also in love with these guys' personalities. Seeing their chemistry makes me happy and sad at the same time. Happy because their energy is contagious. And sad because I wish I had a friend group like this. 🖤

I really like they are speaking Finnish in the video. Other countries should follow the lead! We aren't hearing many different languages in ESC nowadays and there's English everywhere. Different languages are interesting and beautiful, we should proudly introduce them to the people from other countries. Finnish sounds so nice to me, it's almost like being home 😊. I'm from Estonia. Good luck to our dear neighbours!
