Ten years has gone by. This song becomes more relevant each year.

21st place??  Eurovision can sometimes be so cruel and unfair. This was my winner. 

[ThangPiTravel]

In 100 years, people will appreciate this song.

No flashy graphics
No distracting dancers
No fireworks

Just a guy pouring his heart out. A true Eurovision performance!

[dimalimm]

I wish he had won.. The song, the message, the performance, everything on top

[CBurowminecraftcatsdragonlance]

This song was gorgeous! It should have been in first place The message s so pure and true. Emphasise on 'true'. The part of the song where everyone cheered after he sung 'I'm going out into the world to save our planet' just makes me cry.

When I saw this back in 2011 I didn't understand engish, now looking back at this today I'm so proud to see Finland sent a song like this to Eurovision.

When this song was chosen to represent Finland I remember our Physics teacher talking to us about how this song is exactly how it is -- the planet heading in a catastrophic direction, and people in general not doing anything about it, just talking about it like "da da dam da da dam" -- meaningless talk that does nothing

[ctaylor]

Such a sweet song ❤ Still good years later

[siisoutato]

He was singing about how world is dying..  <3 I love him!

[leleqiisjswj]

Im Finnish and i dont usually praise Finland but this really touch my heart and its so good! I dont say that he would win but 21st place!? Come on Eurovision, so wrong!

[dtsuga]

He was Ed Sheeran before Ed Sheeran was cool

[finlandball]

This is one of my favorite entries from Finland. I still believe that he deserved _something better_ than 21st place..

[Lazylasagna]

This was played on BBC radio 2 a few weeks ago and was advertised as a heartwarming song,

[stone]

2021 and I still think it's one of the best Eurovision songs ever ❤

[eelihakala]

Its heartwarming when he sang Im coming out in this world to save our planet, everybody cheered

[spacebbqmusic]

A performance that feels like a warm hug. I cried the first time I heard it.

[shroomyesc]

I just love how you can hear the crowd joining in here and there, makes it that extra notch more wholesome.

[Sipu]

So beautiful song! In my opinion Finland was 21st because this song was the first one to sing so people already forgot it when there's so many other songs too. Silti paras laulu tän vuoden viisuista. <3

At least Finland won gold in ice hockey on the same weekend XD
