Finland – Diandra came to international attention in 2013 when she participated in the Finnish national selection for Eurovision. ‘Colliding into you’ came third in the final of UMK that year behind Krista Siegfrids.

She has released the single ‘Paha poika’ which has shot straight to #1 in Finland. ‘Paha poika’ or ‘Bad Boy’ is just that. Diandra steps out from the cute wholesome image that we were used to and is all woman. A slick R-n-B song with flavours of Dance Hall, Reggae and Dub-Step. This is funky and shows Diandra’s vocal abilities more so than any of her previous songs.

If Diandra can replicate a song like this again in a Finnish Eurovision selection then I would be happy to see her flying the flag for Finland in Vienna next year.
