UMK. Now Finnish broadcaster Yle is looking for
Finland‘s next Eurovision star. The broadcaster has confirmed UMK will return in 2022 and has revealed song submission details.
Yle confirmed that the song submission period for Yle 2022 will take place from 1 to 6 September. That gives interested artists and songwriters three months to get an entry ready to submit.
After UMK 2021 was held without a live audience, UMK producer Anssi Autio says that it is intended for the 2022 addition to return to having a live audience, if possible.
The broadcaster has also released the song submission rules for UMK 2022. It notes that while songwriters are able to enter multiple songs, lead singers can only enter up to three songs and only one will be eligible for selection.
Welcome back to our Eurovision coverage as seen through the eyes of a somewhat sleep-deprived Australian at 5am! This review is absolutely full of links to YouTube clips of the performances, and as always, some of them don’t work in the US. We have done our best to find versions that are visible on both sides of the globe, so if the first clip doesn’t work for you, scroll a little bit further, because the second one hopefully will!
For optimal Eurovision enjoyment, we recommend opening this post in a new tab, then opening all the links in subsequent tabs and savoring each one individually. It may take a while – but it will be WORTH IT! And if you need more music, check out the Eurovision 2020 post!

Eurovision chiefs issue update on Italy winners Maneskin after drugs claims David Bentley
The Eurovision Broadcasting Union, which organises the annual contest, says it is examining video footage that showed Damiano David lowering his head over a table in the green room.
The singer has volunteered to take a drugs test when he gets home.
Viewers questioned what they were seeing when Damiano was seen on camera bending over a table, with some suspecting he had been caught snorting cocaine.
One asked on Twitter: Did someone just do a line live on Eurovision telly?
But the singer insisted he was looking down after another band member broke a glass on the floor.
